Gazef did not directly enter into a conversation with Rieger.
When he was passing by the village square, he happened to see the corpses of relatives collected by the villagers.
Before that, the villagers were actually preparing for the funeral.
It seems a bit too hasty to hold a funeral immediately on the day of the death, but in this world, this is something that has to be done.
Because if the bodies are not disposed of in time and the deceased are not comforted, it may cause them to become undead.
The dead who are not fully resurrected are the undead.
They are monsters formed by the negative energy and negative vitality emitted by living things after death condensed on the remains or other necromancy media. They are a kind of existence that is completely opposite to the living.
The living have a limited lifespan, but the immortal does not.
The living will be healed by the power of the sacred system, but the undead will be harmed.
If magic that can be used to heal the living is cast on the undead, it will injure the other party. On the contrary, powers such as curses that can kill the living are actually a great benefit to the undead.
Existences such as zombies, skeletons, ghouls, hungry ghosts, corpse demons, bloated ghosts, rotten corpses, etc. are all undead. They are also one of the largest types and largest number of monster races in this world.
And in the dying place of the living, such unclean things are often born, giving birth to the undead.
Especially those who died unexpectedly and had no one to care about them, the probability of them becoming undead is generally higher.
Therefore, the undead often appear in places such as battlefields and ruins. If the undead are left alone, stronger and higher-level undead will easily appear, eventually turning into a huge disaster that humans cannot handle.
In view of this, in this world, paying homage to and comforting the deceased is a very important custom and habit. No matter which country or race you are in, you will attach great importance to the deceased.
All the villagers who died in Karn Village died because of unreasonable massacres. They must have been very resentful before their death, so the possibility of them becoming undead would be very high.
Therefore, the surviving villagers could only endure their grief, gather their deceased relatives together, and prepare to hold a funeral as soon as possible.
The arrival of Gazef and others inadvertently interrupted this process, causing the villagers to hide in their houses, leaving the corpses gathered in the square.
Gazef stopped after seeing this scene.
"Let me also offer a flower to the dead."
Gazef said this to the village chief, which made Rige look at the warrior captain a little sideways.
It seems that this warrior captain does have a considerate heart for the common people.
In response to this, the village chief naturally burst into tears of gratitude, and quickly called out the villagers hiding in the house to continue the funeral.
The funeral in the small village was not luxurious at all, on the contrary, it was extremely simple.
But this is the limit of what Kahn Village can currently do, and no one would blame them.
They even collected the corpses of Belius, Londes, and the disguised knights of the Silian Theocracy, and prepared to find a piece of land to bury them to prevent them from becoming undead.
This process caused another burst of crying, which made Li Ge, who was not very adaptable to this, resign and leave the scene temporarily.
Gazef presented a flower to each dead villager at the funeral and bowed.
During this period, Gazef learned a piece of news from his subordinates.
"What?"
Gazef was surprised by what the subordinate said to him.
"You said that young man can use fifth-level magic?"
Yes, Gazef learned about this from his subordinates.
"Isn't it incredible?" The subordinate's face was full of exclamation, and he even said a little doubtfully: "But when we just communicated with the villagers in the village, they said that those knights who attacked the village were all dead before they died.
I called him and said that the boy used fifth-level magic."
The villagers may not know what it means to be able to use fifth-level magic.
Gazef and others were different.
"Can that boy actually use fifth-level magic that can only be used by magic casters who have entered the realm of heroes?"
Gazef murmured.
The heroic realm is a realm that can only be set foot in by the strongest human beings. It is considered to be beyond the limits of human beings, so it is also called the realm beyond human beings.
This is an existence that is rare in the entire kingdom. Has a young man who looks like he is not yet 20 years old actually already reached that age?
"Could there be a mistake?" Seeing Gazef deep in thought, another subordinate suddenly said in disbelief: "How could he have already entered the realm of heroes at such a young age?"
Regarding this statement, Gazef shook his head in denial.
"Being young doesn't mean it's impossible to step into the realm of heroes." Gazef said: "Have you forgotten the captain of [Blue Rose]?"
As soon as these words came out, all the subordinates were speechless.
———[Blue Rose].
This is one of only two teams of adamantine-level adventurers in the Kingdom of Riestij.
There are five people in this team, and all of them are women.
But with these five women, not only are all of them the highest-level adamantium-level adventurers, but the leader is also recognized as someone in the kingdom who has stepped into the realm of heroes.
At the age of 19, that one accomplished several great deeds that others could not accomplish and officially entered the realm of heroes.
In other words, it is not uncommon for people to become heroes before the age of 20.
What Gazef meant was simple.
"We may have encountered a second such being."
After hearing Gazef's words, all the subordinates couldn't help but look at each other.
As for Gazef, all he could say was praise, and his heart was full of admiration for that young man.
Although he is regarded as a person in the realm of heroes, his own family knows his own affairs.
Gazef knew very well that he was actually still half a step away from the realm of heroes.
There are two reasons why he can become the strongest.
One is the four secret treasures that the king is allowed to wear, which allows Gazef to increase his strength to a level that is usually unattainable when fully armed.
One is that he received a treasure from an elder of [Blue Rose] in the past. Due to the effect of that treasure, the other half of the foot that has not yet stepped into the realm of heroes can step into it.
In other words, Gazef has not yet fully entered the realm of heroes, he can only be regarded as half-stepping into it.
This made Gazef always admire those strong men who could step into the realm of heroes with their own strength.
"Let's go." Gazef said to his subordinates: "Go and have a good talk with this young hero."
The subordinates immediately nodded in agreement.
…………
Kahn Village, the village chief's home.
At this time, the village chief was not at his home, but lent his home to Rige and Gazef so that the two could talk.
The two of them sat down opposite each other at the simple wooden table, and after exchanging some polite words, they got down to business.
"How did Mr. Brighaut know that those knights were disguised as people from the Slian Theocracy?"
This seems to be the thing that Gazef cares about the most.
After hearing the whole story from the village chief and other villagers, Gazef became curious about how Li Ge, a magic caster who "accidentally" passed by Karn Village, learned about the Slian Theocracy.
planned.
However, this question is destined to remain unanswered.
"What would you think if I said that I knew this would happen from the beginning?"
Li Ge looked at the muscular man in front of him, smiled slightly, and said such an intriguing sentence.
"You knew it from the beginning?"
Gazef narrowed his eyes.
There is a lot of information in this sentence.
Not many people knew about the secret plan of the Silian Theocracy. However, Li Ge claimed that he was passing by by chance and said that he knew about it from the beginning. Whether there was any other intention in this, no one could tell.
Not sure.
"Compared with this, shouldn't the warrior commander care about his own affairs?"
Li Ge did not continue to explain this matter, but turned to other topics.
"Those people are here for you. Whether they are massacring innocent villagers or hooking up with the nobles of the kingdom, they have only one purpose, and that is to eliminate you."
These words made the atmosphere in the entire room become solemn.
Gazef also remembered the news his subordinates had just obtained from the villagers.
Specifically, it was the information revealed by Li Ge himself when he was confronting the disguised knights of the Silian Theocracy.
"A special intelligence unit directly under the priests of the Silian Theocracy, the Sunshine Sacred Scripture, one of the Six Colored Sacred Scriptures...?"
Gazef already knew that those people from the Slaine Theocracy who were pretending to be Imperial Knights were just bait to lure him over. The person who was really manipulating the fishing rod and preparing to catch his big fish was the Sunshine Codex.
That's no ordinary enemy.
The six-color holy books of the Silian Theocracy are a group of very terrifying beings.
They each have their own responsibilities, specialties and positions, and are responsible for work in different fields in the Silian Theocracy, but without exception, they all hold frightening power.
The most famous one is the Black Sacred Scripture, which is the strongest among the Six Color Sacred Scriptures.
It is said that every member of the Black Sacred Code is a person who has stepped into the realm of heroes, and all of them are terrifyingly strong.
The Sunshine Codex is a force specifically responsible for annihilating demi-human villages. Among the six special intelligence units of the Silian Theocracy, it has always had the most opportunities to be dispatched.
There are not many of them. Even including the reserve members, the total number is less than a hundred. But if they want to join the Sunshine Canon, they must at least be able to use third-level magic, which is what ordinary magic casters can do.
Only the highest level magic you can learn will do.
This alone shows how powerful Sunshine Scripture is.
"Besieged and killed by such troops, does the Warrior Commander have any chance of winning?"
