Son of the Olden Days

Chapter 294: Weird village

It happened when Sol arrived in Seawind County.

Haifeng County is a relatively remote village in the Black Reef Territory, and the size of the village can be roughly guessed from the uninspired name. But the last forest that Thor will go to is just north of Haifeng County.

In the last month of the cold winter, Thor wandered for more than ten days in the outskirts of the forest in the south of Black Reef Town, and spent five more days on his way to Haifeng County, preparing to complete his final search journey.

Needless to say, all the way to the wind and snow.

Through the dark wilderness, you can see the sparse lights of Sea Breeze County from a distance, and Thor doesn't care about it. His requirements are not high, as long as there is a small inn in the village that can be set up, he can do it without any help to find a farmer.

After approaching the village, Sol soon discovered that something was wrong, because the whole village seemed too quiet, and it was a little abnormally quiet.

This kind of dead silence shouldn't appear in human settlements. No matter how dilapidated and backward this place is, the whispers of cooking smoke cannot be cut off so thoroughly.

Soon Sol's judgment was confirmed, because the two guards at the entrance of the village had fallen to the ground.

Seeing this scene, Saul decisively pulled out the long sword behind him, and quietly touched it towards the entrance of the village.

Saul originally thought that this village had been attacked suddenly, but when he walked in, he realized that things were not that simple.

The two guards who fell to the ground looked normal. This normal means that after Thor got close and checked, he found that they were still breathing and there were no wounds on their bodies. The calm expression seemed to be asleep.

He tried to shake one of the guards, but he didn't respond, even if Thor increased his shaking, it wouldn't help.

Saul frowned and glanced around, then gently touched into the village.

The situation in the village is also very strange, and you can sometimes see ordinary villagers sleeping on the ground on the road. They seem to feel tired suddenly while shopping, and then just fall asleep in place, but it doesn't make sense at all.

Because it is a cold winter, this kind of open-air sleep will only end with freezing to death. Sol stood on the road and inspected his surroundings, and found that the road in this village should have been cleared of snow, so the snow on the road was only as deep as an ankle at this moment.

Sol arrived in Haifeng County exactly in the afternoon. Judging from the snow on the villagers who were sleeping on the side of the road at this moment, they seemed to have fallen asleep not long ago, about half an hour ago.

Reaching out and trying on the villagers' necks and chests, Thor found that his heartbeat hadn't stopped, but his body temperature was already very low.

The whole village is quiet, with only a strange sense of death.

Sol suspected that there were enemies in this village, maybe he was peeping at himself in the dark.

Instead of searching for the enemy by himself, letting him find himself is the same

Decisively took out a bottle of sober potion and antidote and poured it into himself first. In case the cause of this sleepiness is because some unknown toxicity in the air is spreading, he will not be without resistance.

Although Thor never thought he was a good person, these villagers were left alone. As the temperature went away, they would eventually die. So Thor watched the surroundings carefully while embarking on rescue.

It's not noble, it's just smooth.

I found a spacious shack that seemed to be tethered for livestock, which was open and covered to shelter from wind and snow. Then Sol dragged the two guards at the gate of the village and all the sleepy villagers he could find on the road here.

After lighting a fire in the middle of the open space, Sol placed the villagers by the fire and fell into thinking.

These villagers are not actually saved, because their lethargy is still not relieved. Saul couldn't tell whether it was a sleeping magic or some weird method that caused these people to wake up.

The current situation is not difficult to choose, either decisively let go, or find the enemy or the strange source, and kill it.

If Saul learned of the strange and unsolvable situation in this village while he was still on the trip, he might just turn around and go back, and would not care about the lives of others. But now that he has moved his hands, it is not his style to save half of it and throw it away.

After turning around twice, Saul decided to look at it again, not to say whether it was confrontation or not, at least to figure out what was at work. The effect of the potion could last for a while. He turned out a cloth towel and put it on his face, then tied a knot in the back of his head, and turned to touch it in the village.

Sol's first target was the rooms in the village where the lights were still on.

Pushing open the dilapidated wooden doors, the situation was similar to what I had imagined. There were no people alive, or there were no awake people. Although there were people in the lighted room, they were all asleep.

The remaining kerosene burned in the oil lamp also heralded that this drowsiness occurred not long ago.

Thor increasingly suspected that this was the handwriting of magicians. Only when a large range of lethargic magic hits, can these people fall asleep in a similar amount of time, and Thor can only think of this possibility for the time being.

This is also the reason why Thor has always disliked fighting against weirdness, because that means unknown and unsure.

There are too many weird things in this world, and sometimes guessing may not be able to find a trace of weak logic.

The environment of the whole village was as sluggish as expected, with dilapidated grass and wooden houses sparsely lit up. The road that entered the village just now seems to be the main street of the village, and most of the buildings are enclosed on both sides of the road.

Sol is going to explore all the buildings roughly, if there is no result, let's talk about it.

Just as Saul opened the door of a residential house again, the sound of sword fighting suddenly came from the north of the village, and sometimes magical flashes and explosions flashed in the air. Saul's eyes condensed, and the source seemed to be found.

The source of the sound seemed to be at the end of the main street of the village, out of my dark vision.

Saul did not approach blindly, but relied on the shelter of the surrounding buildings to move forward.

The sound of fighting didn't last long, and soon returned to silence, but it was enough to point Saul's direction.

Soon Sol reached the end of the main street of the village. The circular village pattern of Haifeng County was very similar to that of Gray Screen Town back then. A street runs through the village, leaving only the entrances and exits of the two villages in the north and south.

After bypassing the last building at the entrance of the village, his vision suddenly became clear, and Thor took a closer look, and there were still many people in front of him.

It seems that two groups of people are facing each other in the wilderness outside the village. There are six or seven people on the weaker side. Four of them wore white magic robes, and three of them wore bright silver metal armors. From the surface, they appeared to be swordsmen and shields.

There are less than twenty people on the crowded party, all wearing dark black metal armor, and there are also black robe mages mixed in between.

Several people fell on the ground in black, white and white. The two sides seemed to be talking, and Sol couldn't hear anything a little further away.

No one on either side raised a torch, but a large area of ​​the wilderness was filled with a blue, snowy light. This dazzling scene reminded Sol of the Lorton's lighting technique that he used in the monastery a few years ago. .

Sol leaned against the corner and showed a small half of his gaze.

With a glance, he could see that the armors and magic robes worn by these people were all high-quality goods.

So the question is, what do these people gather here? Did they get here all the way from the village offensive and defensive, or came from the wilderness to enter the village? Is the slumber of the villagers in the village their handwriting?

No one answered, Saul knelt down and quietly touched behind the half-person high wall outside the village, trying to hear what the two sides were talking about. The group of people in black armor was facing their backs, and their position was in the dark and backlight, and they should not be exposed.

"Dougs the betrayer, the Lord of Light has been watching you. There is always a misguided and unclean temptation in the world, but there is always a chance to look back." A leading old man in the white magic robe suddenly spoke, seeming to persuade someone. People look back.

"Archbishop Bernat, since the light of faith has dimmed, no one wants to lose their lives in this kind of courage, so I urge you to give up resistance as a fellow Illuminati." Known as Dougs The black armor swordsman stepped forward and shook the blood on his sword.

Sol was a little speechless. Although he heard only two sentences, it seemed that there were a bunch of **** gods on both sides. The godless Thor has always disliked this kind of unclear **** dialogue, because these words seemed to him to be meaningless except to confuse people.

"Is this a must? We once bathed in the Holy Light together. You are my most optimistic disciple, and the inheritance of faith will definitely fall on you in the future." The old man continued.

"Yes, mentor, I miss it very much. But I'm sorry, the trend is already like this, some roads can't be turned back, let alone I don't want to go back." Dougs replied.

"Well, God loves the world and can listen to all kinds of voices. Since you have to go your own way, can I, as your former mentor, beg you to spare the innocent believers behind me." The old man is doing the last. Negotiations.

"I'm afraid... I'm still sorry, my mentor." The person who answered was Dougs, but almost the moment his voice fell, the battle broke out again, and in a blink of an eye the swords and magic flashes exploded.

Sol couldn't see the actual situation of the battle. In order to avoid exposure, he always listened with his back under the low parapet.

The subsequent battle is obviously very fierce. Judging from the extent of the collision, Saul estimates that these people also have at least Tier 4 or Tier strength.

"Boom~" Accompanied by the sound of the magic explosion, a gap was blown out in the low wall not far from Sol.

This movement made Saul frowned. Probably speaking, it seemed that he was not too safe to hide here.

The battle only lasted for a short period of time, with screams and falling to the ground. The surrounding area became quiet again, and it was obvious that the two sides had returned to the situation of confrontation. Sol quietly touched the probe at the gap in the low wall, wanting to see how each side was consumed.

At this moment, three or four people fell on the white robe, leaving the old man and two swordsmen with two mages.

There are eleven people standing on the black armor, who are also a mixture of wizards and swordsmen.

Judging from the battle damage ratio in this short instant, the white robe mage seemed to be a little stronger, and the black armor group had a hard time trying to bite. It's no wonder that the two sides will play back and forth, constantly killing each other psychologically and physically.
