Chapter 76 Departure
It turned out that as early as a hundred years ago, when Langxin Town was first built, people at that time signed a contract with the natural spirit of this forest, deer-headed spirit, and sacrificed every year in exchange for the right to walk in the forest and the protection of the deer-headed spirit.
Later, time flies, the deer-headed spirit often falls into a deep sleep. Slowly, the people in the wolf heart began to do things perfunctorily and finally began to give up sacrifices. However, the deer-headed spirit sleeps in the wilderness of the goblins and does not care. Until the deer antlers that he used as a sacrificial weapon were stolen and woke it up...
It was originally a human being who had sweared first, but he actually dared to destroy my altar! Buddha also has fire!
So the deer-headed spirit began to take revenge on those who dared to break into the forest and killed them ruthlessly. In the view of the deer-headed spirit, humans are not more noble than other creatures in the forest. Since you have chosen to betray your oath, let everything return to the past.
However, this deer-headed spirit is indeed very easy to talk to. After being persuaded by the spirit, the spirit will get rid of the anger.
It means that if humans do not come to destroy the altar of the Sha family in the future, the Sha family will no longer pay attention to these stupid humans. But they will never protect them. From now on, let them see the cruelty of the forest.
Charlotte and the others felt that since they had made it clear that the deer-headed spirit would no longer attack the humans entering the forest, it would have completed the task. So they returned to Wolf Heart Town and handed over the task. The task rewarded 8 big golden dragons, one person and two. Of course, Alice did not.
Fei Luo couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Made, the leader of the group is Heijin!
Charlotte can get two people alone (and the governor’s), which is really a advantage. I really want to have one too!
The Elf Royal Sister felt happy when she got two big golden dragons, but the three secondary healing leaves she took out were worth more than two big golden dragons. But there was no way, being rich was willful.
When Charlotte mentioned how to allocate the two leather armors provided by the Temple of the Mother Earth God, the elf sister waved her hand casually, "You can deal with it. I'm not interested in this kind of despicable thing."
Charlotte almost knelt on the ground on the spot and begged for support, "The strong body can warm the bed. Do you still lack pendants on your legs?"
"The rich people hate...the hateful big-breasted girl!" Alice muttered.
Everyone thought the matter was over, but they didn't expect that the mayor still looked worried. Although he didn't say anything, anyone could see his face was not very good. But that was not related to Charlotte and the others.
We have already made up the troubles you have made. If there is any problem in the future, it will not be our problem.
The next morning, Charlotte and the others heard something bad when they were having breakfast.
Last night, a wolf pack tried to attack the village outside the town. I didn’t hear any casualties, but the livestock suffered considerable losses. And according to the hunters in the town, traces of wolves began to appear in the forest outside the town.
Sure enough, the mayor's concerns were not without reason. However, Charlotte no longer planned to stay in Langxin Town to help clear the wolves. He was not a savior, and he had done everything he could. What was left was their own choice.
Just when Charlotte and the others were about to set off again, the mayor sent someone to invite them over and said there was something important to discuss.
Fei Luo looked at Charlotte and said, "You decide, should you go directly to Helsing or take a look..."
Because Charlotte said in the morning that he would set off early and didn't want to stay and wipe the butts of the people in Langxinzhen, Fat Luo asked Charlotte to decide whether to go to see the mayor. Anyway, he doesn't care.
Charlotte pondered for a while, and finally decided to see what the mayor said, "I think I'd better go and see it, it's not that short of time. Besides, the payment was very happy before, so let's give you some face."
The group followed the guards to the village outside the town where the wolf attacked, and found that the mayor and the elf Luna were already there.
The fences in the village have been damaged a lot, and deep scratches can even be seen in some places. There are large bloodstains on the ground, and some scattered domestic animals chewed by wolves have not had time to deal with.
Some women and children were crying and crying. The men in the village were all calm, holding weapons in their hands, and some were still stained with blood on their bodies. An atmosphere called "pain" lingers around.
In this world with backward productivity, the importance of a big animal is not to be mentioned in detail. This is the most important property of a family, and it is likely to be accumulated by two generations. But now it is gone, and it was gnawed into bones by the wolves overnight.
What to do in the future? Will those damn wolves come again? If the animals are eaten up, will they start attacking people? These urgent questions linger in everyone's mind...
The mayor walked over and said, "Dear Mr. Charlotte, the adventurer, and Mr. Ferro, I invite you to come here in hopes of your help. This is a mistake we have made, but please do not hesitate to these innocent people... please help us..."
The mayor has understood that only the female elf in front of him and this team of adventurers can handle this matter. Many adventurers even heard that this time Langxin Town angered a wild natural spirit outside the town and had left overnight. They were unwilling to wade into this muddy water, nor were they able to wade into this muddy water.
Then the mayor talked about the origin of Langxin Town and its origins with the deer-headed spirit.
Langxin Town has been established for almost eighty years, but it was not smooth when it was established. The timberwolves in the forest here are very rampant, repeatedly hurting people, and even attacking the first-time town many times, causing considerable casualties.
When hunting in the forest, the hungry wolf would be eaten by hungry wolf, farming in the fields, working, or even resting in your own house at night and sleeping, they might be killed by hungry wolf! Even because the wolf was too severe, the town would be abandoned for a while.
But a powerful adventurer at that time, he went deep into the forest to gain the trust of the wild spirit deer-headed spirit. With the efforts of this adventurer, the people in the town signed a contract with the deer-headed spirit and were willing to sacrifice the deer-headed spirit every year in exchange for its shelter.
Later, under the magical protection of the deer-headed spirit, the wolf disaster gradually disappeared, and the wolves migrated and left one after another.
Later, the deer-headed essence fell asleep in the wilderness of the fairy and no longer paid attention to the troubles of the main material plane. The people in Wolf Heart Town began to gradually forget their original oath and no longer hold sacrifices.
Now the deer-headed spirit has given up protecting the wolf heart, and the disappeared wolf pack is back! The nightmare of the past is back!
"...I beg you, beg you to help these people. Beg you..." The mayor said in the end, and more than 40 people started to cry in front of everyone.
If the wolf disaster recurs, Langxin Town will inevitably decline, and the nearly 10,000 people around this will have to choose to give up their hometown...
Charlotte and the others did not immediately reply to the mayor, they needed to discuss it.
When they returned to the tavern, the people were silent. Even Alice sat aside with Timo in her arms and said nothing.
Luna also followed them back to the tavern, and she wanted to see what these people would choose. You should know that the deer-headed spirit has been hurt by humans once, and it is already difficult to convince it.
If it was a slight effort, Luna wouldn't mind helping these people. But this time she was completely unsure. Besides, what position would she be like to speak for humans as an elf?
So, how do you choose? What do you do?
Luna observed Charlotte with interest.
At this time, Fei Luo broke the silence and asked, "What should we do? Are we still leaving?"
