"Meet the lord."
Anos stood firm, and Old Sean stepped forward to greet him.
"No courtesy." Anos waved his hand, "Old Sean, I remember you, tell me what happened to these villagers."
Although he heard a little bit about Lisanna, considering that Lisanna was not in a good mood at the time, the Baron thought it would be better to ask for more information.
Old Sean sighed and replied: "Well, actually I don't know what happened. The villagers collapsed the stairs here in the morning and injured many people. It was Father Ryan and the Baron who invited the tiles Pastor Kahn treated the villagers."
"Before Pastor Vakan came, Father Ryan was scolded by the villagers during his break because he was too tired from treatment. At that time, I thought it was just the villagers who were ignorant, so I didn't take it seriously and just scolded him away."
"Later, after Master Carol came to visit the priest, he decided to let us hold a banquet. I went home to think about how to arrange it."
"As a result, the villagers gathered in front of my house and said that Makina in the tavern was a demon and wanted to burn her to death. They even said that Father Ryan was an accomplice of Makina and deliberately caused the stairs to collapse in order to defraud them of their money."
"They were going crazy and refused to listen to anyone's advice. By the time I caught up with them, they had already coaxed Pastor Vakan and surrounded the tavern."
"Okay, Village Chief Sean, there is no need to cover it up for me. I was too stupid and was deceived by the villagers and almost helped the evildoers."
Pastor Wakan interrupted the village chief, with a bitter look on his face: "If this matter can be resolved safely this time, I will ask the church for forgiveness myself. As a clergyman, I was almost taken advantage of by the devil. I really It’s so embarrassing.”
"No, Mr. Vakan, don't say that. If you hadn't protected me, I would have been killed by the out-of-control villagers."
Old Sean gratefully defended the pastor.
"Okay, you two, stop whining."
Leo impatiently interrupted the pretentiousness between the two.
"Baron, right? The general story is just like what the village chief said."
"But in fact you can see it. These villagers are controlled by some ominous being."
"It attacked the villagers last night, but it was cured by my master, Father Ryan. It attacked Ms. Makina again in the morning, and we later discovered it."
"I guess we ruined its plan twice, and it got angry. It directly bewitched all the villagers and besieged us."
"The trouble now is that there are too many villagers, and we can't kill them directly. We need more people to control the villagers and find out who is controlling the villagers behind the scenes. Eliminate him."
"So, Your Majesty Baron, how many followers have you brought with you this time?"
Leo explained the key point clearly and concisely. Attracted Anos' attention.
"I am Arnos Fred, and you must be Knight Leo Gareth. It's our first time meeting you. Nice to meet you."
Anos gave Leo a knight's salute, and Leo quickly returned the gesture.
"Leo Gareth, Father Ryan's guardian knight, has met the Baron."
"Call me Fred, Lord Gareth. I can feel that you are very strong."
Leo's strength was recognized by Anos, so he did not emphasize his status as a baron.
Besides, Anos could feel the unique aristocratic temperament from Leo.
The other party may not appreciate his status as a baron.
Leo did not expect that this Anos Fred did not pay attention to the villagers, but instead cared about his own strength, which somewhat left Leo speechless.
"Sir Fred, let's get down to business. How many people have you brought?"
Anos scratched his face in embarrassment and said with a smile: "I brought three followers to harass the villagers. When I saw them leading the villagers away, I rushed in. Who knew the villagers came back again, so I had to jump Come up."
Seeing that the hall was blocked again, and the villagers who were knocked down by Leo were already getting up from the ground, ready to continue the attack, Leo sighed feebly.
Anos quickly explained: "I have sent people back to the castle to ask for help. In just an hour, my secretary will be here with my private soldiers."
"I'm afraid we can't wait another hour. The people behind the scenes are impatient!"
I saw the villagers downstairs suddenly hugging the pillar downstairs and starting to shake.
"哐啷啷~"
The corridor began to shake.
"We can't stay in the tavern anymore. We have to find a way to break out. Otherwise, even if the house falls and cannot crush us, the villagers will be smashed to death!"
Anos looked around and looked towards the end of the corridor.
"I can cut a hole in the wall at the end of the corridor and we jump out of there."
Leo sighed and said, "It's easy to escape, but what to do next? Among us, there are old ones, young ones, and even exhausted ones. We can't escape these crazy villagers."
Anos followed Leo's gaze and saw Makina holding the child in the room without saying a word, and the faint sound of breathing reached his ears.
He quickly walked to Nok's room door in disbelief and looked in, and saw Nok sleeping soundly.
"this……"
Anos pointed at Nok who was still sleeping in disbelief, and was speechless for a moment.
"That was Father Ryan, who overdrawn his mana to save the villagers. I guess it was the person behind the scenes who deliberately consumed Father Ryan and caused the villagers to be injured. We have been plotted by it a long time ago."
Leo quietly explained why Nok was still sleeping.
After listening to Leo's explanation, Anos couldn't say anything more.
He knew how uncomfortable it was to have overdraft of mana. He had also exhausted his physical strength and fighting spirit on the battlefield and had to continue fighting in order to survive. He didn't want to experience that feeling again in his life.
"Since we can't escape, we can only stop them. Between the two of us, we should be able to hold the pillar."
"It's useless. We can't knock them down completely. They will attack continuously and we will be exhausted."
"Then wouldn't it be good if they couldn't continue to attack?"
Nok's abrupt voice interrupted.
"Father Ryan, you're awake."
Pastor Wakane saw Nok standing at the door and quickly stood up and stepped forward.
"Thank you for saving me regardless of the past."
Nok waved his hand carelessly, not caring that the other person was older than himself, and put his hand on the other person's shoulder and patted him.
"No need to thank you, it was you who saved yourself. You were able to stand up when old Sean was in danger and stick to your bottom line, which shows that you are an excellent priest. Our church needs talents like you. But from now on, don’t be so rash when doing things, and don’t make judgments based on just one side of the story, as you can easily be deceived.”
"Yes! Vakarn has been taught."
Seeing Nok who was still in a preaching mood, Leo was speechless, but felt at ease again.
At the last moment, he planned to carry Nok on his back and fight his way out of the village. As for the life and death of the villagers, it had nothing to do with him.
Even if he had physical contact with Makina, he would not care.
"I have met your Excellency the priest, I am Baron Arnos Fred, the lord of Tarn Village."
"Oh, hello, Your Excellency Baron. But now is not the time for small talk. Let's talk about how to solve the crisis at hand."
Anos is a little messy. You were obviously the one who preached there for a long time, but why did you come to my place and it was not the time for greetings.
"Based on my observations today, the other party's fierce attack now means that they have already eliminated the people you brought with you, Lord Baron. He is forcing us to escape from this favorable terrain."
"If I'm not wrong, I'm afraid he has laid an ambush around the outside of the tavern. If we really jump off the building to escape, we will probably jump into his ambush."
"Him? Father, do you know who is behind the scenes?" Vakan captured the key word.
"Let's not mention this for now. Let's solve the immediate trouble first."
Nok did not answer Vakan's question, but pointed to the villagers pouring up from downstairs.
"Since those behind the scenes want to force us to leave, we must do the opposite."
"As long as the villagers below are brought down, we will be safe for the time being."
Anos retorted: "But Father, how can we bring down the villagers without harming them? They are my people, I can't kill them all."
Nok smiled and said: "Although my method is a bit cruel, in order to save everyone and the villagers, the small pain and torture is also a test for the villagers by the Holy Lord."
"Don't forget, the villagers had already faced death once in the morning. But aren't they all attacking us now? You two knights can definitely break the villagers' legs. If they break their legs, no matter how crazy they are, , can you still crawl and attack us?"
"If they can still crawl, then break them with their hands. Although it is a bit cruel, at least it saves their lives. When we have our hands free, we can find and deal with the people behind the scenes, and then we can treat the villagers. , I think they can understand it.”
"Do you think this method is feasible?"
Looking at the smiling Nok, even Leo felt his scalp numb, let alone Arnos Fred, who had just met Nok.
Such a sinister idea made Anos take two steps back calmly, trying to stay as far away from this sinister priest as possible.
Old Sean even doubted whether Father Ryan was seeking revenge on the villagers for repaying kindness with vengeance.
But he dared not say it for fear of being retaliated against.
"That's it! There's no better way right now."
Anos thought for a while and finally made a decision.
There was no way, he was the only one qualified to make this decision. Who makes him the lord?
Only when he takes up this responsibility can everyone present dare to take action.
"Then take action! Don't worry, with me and this pastor here, as long as the person is not beaten to death, you can feel free to beat him to death."
Nok smiled and said something that made a few people's hair stand on end.
Leo knew that Nok was very, very angry.
