Deadwood Village.
After Zhou Zhou and the four of them arrived here, they entered the village directly without any obstruction.
There are about a hundred people in this village.
Not only are the number of people small.
And everyone's face looked haggard and hungry.
After seeing Zhou Zhou and the others coming, they all came out and looked at them.
There were expectations, pity, fear, anxiety and many other emotions in those eyes.
Zhou Zhou had prepared some words.
But saw this scene.
He fell silent immediately.
Just when they were halfway there.
An old man with a sallow face and thin muscles walked over shakily, supported by a tall and thin young man.
"grandfather!"
"They seem to have something to say to grandpa."
"I didn't think they were bad people, so I brought them here."
A Zhuang said, then glanced at Zhou Zhou.
A Zhuang's grandfather heard this and smiled bitterly.
Then he put away his expression, looked at Zhou Zhou and the others, and then saluted respectfully.
"Welcome, my lords, to Deadwood Village."
"I am the village chief here - Zu Li."
“The small village is simple.”
"I made you all laugh."
"You're welcome, old man."
"So you are A Zhuang's grandfather."
"He is a filial child."
Zhou Zhou smiled.
A Zhuang's face turned red when he heard this.
"A Zhuang is indeed very filial."
"But I am not his biological grandfather, but his godfather."
"All the grown-up-less children in the village call me this to recognize me."
Zu Li smiled.
"You three, please follow me into the lobby and sit down."
"Let us also entertain you."
After he finished speaking, he made a trembling invitation gesture.
Zhou Zhou and the other three looked at each other and then nodded.
After a while.
Lobby.
"This is the dew just collected this morning."
"Although it's not very sweet, at least it's clean."
"If the three guests don't mind, you can drink it and have a look."
Zu Li looked at Zhou Zhou and the others and smiled kindly.
Zhou Zhou glanced at the clear dew in the broken bowl in his hand.
Item information will appear soon.
It's definitely dew.
Then he glanced at the villagers next to him who had extremely longing eyes, and then drank the bowl of dew in one gulp.
The entrance is refreshing.
Although it does not have a sweet taste, it is no problem to quench your thirst.
When Zu Li saw this, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
Afterwards, they chatted briefly for a while, and Zhou Zhou raised his doubts:
"Village Chief, why is there not a single dead tree around your Dead Tree Village?"
"Have they all been chopped off?"
"How dare we cut down the branch of the Scarlet Lord?"
"The scarlet lord took it back himself."
When Zu Li heard this, his expression suddenly turned bitter.
Zhou Zhou and others were stunned.
Before he could take the initiative to raise his doubts.
The young man standing next to Zu Li took the initiative to explain.
"When we first came here, it was eleven years ago."
"At that time, we were not just over 100 people like we are now, but more than 3,000 people."
"When we first arrived, we were trapped here by the withered demon tree. We had no power to resist and could only be raised here as blood food."
"In just two years, our number has dropped directly from more than 3,000 people to more than 1,000 people."
"We thought we would all die here."
"But then a group of glow riders and a lich came here."
"In order to protect us, that group of glow cavalry negotiated conditions with the lich so that we can gain a foothold here and no longer be harmed by the withered tree demon Scarlet Lord."
"The only thing that limits us is that we cannot escape from this dead wood forest."
"Because the scarlet lord is only willing to give us an area to survive. Beyond this area, it will still regard us as blood food."
"that's all."
"We rely on food collected from dew and some seeds we brought with us to survive until now."
"During this time."
"We've lost some villagers off and on."
"Some of them starved to death; some were encountered and killed by the fog monsters here while collecting food; some tried to escape and were killed by the withered magic tree."
"That's how it continues until now."
"We only have these 100 or so villagers left."
"As for the group of glow cavalry."
"By the time we see them again, they have become completely different people."
"But when they saw us, they didn't attack us."
"Until five years ago."
"When we saw them again, they directly attacked us."
"We don't know why either."
The villagers were a little confused after speaking.
Zhou Zhou didn't speak for a while after hearing this.
I see.
After the group of glow cavalry negotiated terms with the lich, they should have been transformed into undead knights by the other party.
If at this time, they still have a certain degree of self-awareness, they can control themselves from killing after seeing the Aurora human race.
Then after they are completely transformed into fog monsters by the scarlet mist, they should no longer have any consciousness at this time.
That's why they launched an attack on the people in Kumu Village.
Think of this.
Zhou Zhou couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
At the same time, he also developed a sense of respect for the undead knight before he was transformed into a mist monster.
"It's true."
"I am a lord. This time I led my army to conquer this land."
"The Scarlet Lord of the Withered Demonic Tree that you are facing is one of the goals of our trip."
Zhou Zhoudao.
Zuli and the villagers beside him were stunned.
"If the lord can deal with the leader of the withered demon tree."
"We, the people of Deadwood Village, are willing to join your command, Lord Lord."
Zuli stood up and said.
The words just fell.
A text prompt appears.
[The village chief of Kumu Village-Zuli has issued a commissioned task to you!]
[Name of mission: Hope and Counterattack]
[Quest quality: Platinum lower level·Normal]
[Task content: The villagers of Deadwood Village have been trapped in the Deadwood Forest by the Lord of the Withered Demon Tree for eleven years. During this period, every villager they lost has added a hatred in their hearts. A sudden visit
You bring them hope of revenge, eliminate the withered demon tree lord, and avenge their dead villagers!]
[Task reward: 10 platinum-level Mist Hearts, the loyalty of 136 residents of Deadwood Village (all loyalty points reach 95 points).]
Zhou Zhou raised his eyebrows.
Platinum level mission!?
He took it without hesitation.
"Leave it to us."
"Today we will fight against the Scarlet Lord of the Withered Demonic Tree."
"if things go well."
"You will know the result before the scarlet mist comes tonight."
Zhou Zhoudao.
"Then please leave it to your lord!"
Zuli said with joy on his face.
"By the way, Lord Lord."
"Be careful of dead trees on the roadside and seeds in the ground."
"They look very ordinary, but in fact they are all minions of the Scarlet Lord of the Withered Demonic Tree."
"Not only can they spy on you, they can even actively attack you."
"If you don't take precautions."
"It's easy to get hurt."
The villagers next to Zuli thought of something and said quickly.
"Thank you."
"We took note of it."
Zhou Zhou was a little surprised.
Unexpectedly, in addition to the dead trees on the roadside, the leader of the withered demon tree also has the means to hide underground.
If these are the methods of the Scarlet Lord of the Withered Demonic Tree.
Then this entire withered forest is probably under its surveillance perspective.
After that, they stopped staying and returned to the Legion of the Sun.
