Chapter 553 Lost Courage
The villagers' appearance was too abrupt, making people stunned and their minds blank. No one could imagine the scene in front of them. They seemed like a prey, falling into the trap woven by each other early, waiting for them to fall into the trap.
Willie's reaction was extremely fast. When he realized that something was wrong, he instantly pulled out the dagger from his waist and rushed towards the girl Fina who was close to him. Through the first round of assessment, he controlled the girl firmly in his hand with a few simple moves, and the sharp tip of the knife was pressed tightly against her neck.
"External! You dare to hurt the saint for a trace of hair, you will surely tear you into pieces!"
A roar came from the surrounding villagers, but saw a magnificent man with a tiger back and a bear waist jumping out with a strange-shaped wolf-toothed sword, scattering his body with a savage and violent aura scattered all over his body and rushing towards Willie and the others.
"If you dare to take another step forward, I will kill her."
Willie stared coldly at the man who was about to reach the forefront. With a little force on his hand holding the dagger, the tip of the knife quickly pierced the fair and tender skin between the girl's neck, and dazzling blood flowed out in an instant.
The man stopped, his red eyes filled with anger and murderous intent were staring like bells, he raised the wolf-tooth knife and pointed it at Willie behind the girl, almost shattering his teeth and said fiercely: "I will kill you! I will definitely kill you!"
"Azir! Get off!"
At this time, a majestic and honest voice came from behind the man. The man's body stiffened and turned around without hesitation. After a moment, the owner of the voice stood up, an old man with a handsome face, holding a crutch in his hand, looking quite energetic.
"Young man, let the innocent Fina go, we will give you whatever you want."
"free."
Willie's eyes turned to the old man, and his mouth slightly opened and he spit out two words.
"good!"
The old man said nothing and slapped his crutches down. In an instant, the villagers around him seemed to have received some instructions and made a way.
This scene made Willy look at the old man more fearful. What kind of prestige do they have to make the villagers obey their orders?
Connill, who had already come back to his senses, pulled Willie calmly. His previous changes made his face pale, and his hands holding the crossbow kept trembling slightly.
"Willie, what should I do?"
He was so impressed by Willie's series of responses now that he had completely forgotten all the distractions in his heart. It was really his greatest luck to have such a teammate around him.
"Walk!"
Willie made a quick decision.
The most painful and uncomfortable thing at this time was the girl he hijacked in his arms. As soon as he climbed out of the well, before he could have time to rejoice, the scenes of the villagers who emerged from all directions made her stunned. She couldn't figure out the status quo, and then let Willie hold a sharp weapon in a uniform. In order to threaten Azel, she even stopped attacking and stabbed herself. Even if she wanted to resist, the hunger and bloody fright made her in a state of half-dazzled and half-dazzled.
"Back, let me back."
Obviously Connell realized the importance of hostages. He followed Willie closely, and retreated carefully as he stepped out of the passage of the villagers step by step, his eyes always looked around and alert to the danger.
"When we retreat to a safe place, she will naturally be released, so you don't have to worry about her safety."
Willie said as he walked, as if he was comforting the surrounding villagers who were glaring at him.
"Young man, I hope you remember your commitment."
The old man looked at them, his expression always maintaining unexpected calm.
Willie looked at the old man who was gradually fading away, and felt uneasy in his heart. He didn't know why, but he just felt that the old man's behavior was strange and abnormal.
As they escaped from the siege of the villagers, the huge rock suppressed on their chest began to slowly sink. The distance to the entrance of the village was very long, so long that it seemed to have been stagnant. They knew that this was an illusion given by the senses, but the illusion affected your thinking and emotions so clearly.
The villagers always followed Willie and the others, more than twenty or thirty steps apart from each other, which would not give people a critical distance of danger or relaxation.
The closer you get to the entrance of the village, the more nervous you feel. Something like that is at the last critical moment, success or failure is all in one fell swoop, and no one is willing to bear the consequences of failure.
Finally, he arrived at the village gate that had been opened at some time. Facing the surging villagers in front of him, Willy breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Connill and had a simple exchange of his eyes, which was nothing more than escaping.
As soon as the dagger was retracted, the girl pushed it. In an instant, Willy and Connell quickly fled to the forest in the vast night in the distance.
"careful!"
An anxious and familiar warning sound suddenly sounded from the forest. Before Willie and the others could react in time, they tripped and rolled to the ground. Several figures suddenly jumped out from the darkness on both sides. In the blink of an eye, they rushed to their side. They felt only a pain in their heads, their eyes turned up, and they fainted.
"They have accomplices! Go into the mountains and forests to search for me!"
The old man who had been following Willie and the others heard the warning sound, and waved his cane to the source of the sound immediately issued an order to the villagers.
"Yes! Elder!"
The villagers responded in unison, and in a short while, dozens of villagers flocked to the ground with torches.
The old man slowly walked towards the two "robbers" who dared to hijack the saint. When he saw them, they were already tied up by the figure who had just ambushed in the darkness.
", you guys did a good job!"
The old man nodded to the other party and signaled.
"Elder, what should they do?"
As a member of the ambusher, he kicked Willy, who fainted on the ground with a strong body, and then asked the old man respectfully.
"Please sacrifice to the Supreme God as a slave." The old man said lightly and turned away, as if he had not taken Willy and the others to heart at all. "I will check the situation of the Holy Maiden. Now that the sacrificial ceremony is imminent, there must be no mistake in the safety of the Holy Maiden."
The old man left, and the girl Fina had already been taken to a safe place for treatment, and a noisy hijacking and searching came to an end.
Corret fled in a mess in the dark dense forest, his face full of pale fear. He didn't know how long he had escaped until he fell, got up, fell, and got up again. He finally stopped and fled aimlessly.
Hiding in a pit covered by plants and trees, he raised his head and gasped heavily. For a moment, he slapped himself hard because he was ashamed of his timidity.
He actually ran away. When he saw Willy escape from the village and was in danger, he did not help, but was afraid of running away!
He sneaked back to the village early in the morning to find that the villagers had set up traps outside the village gate. He was still a little confused at that time. It was not until Willie appeared that he fully understood that this was a preventive measure for the villagers to escape against Willie and the others. Similar traps were not only outside the gate, but basically all around the wooden walls surrounding the village. No matter where the other party escaped, they could catch them as soon as possible.
He had only had time to remind him, but it was too late. He should have rushed out to rescue them, but he turned around and ran away.
At that time, there seemed to be a voice in my mind telling myself that the farther you run, the better, because not only can't save them, you will get in together. Now that I think about it, this is simply an excuse for my cowardice in my heart!
Tears moistened his eyes, and his hands were inserted into his hair and tightly held tightly. He was in pain, he was regretful, where did his courage go? How is he different from the departed Relf? It's just the same cowardice and different escape choices.
"That's why I don't want to continue dealing with you trash."
A voice sounded strangely in his ears.
"who?!"
Corret rushed out of the pit, held his shield and looked around, roaring with a ferocious look.
Green
Or maybe Xia Lan sat in an ancient tree with deep roots and lush leaves, drooping her feet and shaking her back and forth, stepping on the branches, looking down at Corrett, who looked like a clown on the ground with a smile on her face.
"Green! It's you?!"
Sensing the movement, Coret raised his head and saw the people on the tree through the moonlight. He widened his eyes and said suddenly in disbelief.
"Why are you here?"
"Of course I'm here to complete the final work of the trial mission!" Xia Lan on the tree said lightly.
"What does it mean?" Corret said in confusion.
"If you want to explain it easily, I'm here to kill someone." Xia Lan said.
"Murder?!" Corret shivered suddenly, and his eyes looking at Xia Lan were immediately filled with fear.
"Don't be nervous, I'm not here to kill you." Xia Lan said with a smile.
"Are you here to kill the villagers of this village?" Corret woke up and said.
"Or why would I come here to watch your funny performance?" Xia Lan said with a smile and betrayal.
"Are you watching us secretly?" Corret said in a daze.
"Yes, it's a pity that you disappointed me too much." Xia Lan shook her head and sighed: "Actually, at the beginning, according to Relf's advice, it would be great to sneak into the village at night and kill them all. As a result, now, Relf has betrayed you and left, Willy Connell is in my arms, and you don't run away when you should run away, but you run away when you shouldn't run away. Look, isn't this ridiculous?"
"Haha, yes, I'm just a joke now!"
Corret was silent for a while, and tears flowed down again as he said, and he knelt down in front of Xia Lan on the tree, and his whole body burst into tears.
"All mistakes are my fault! Please! Save Willy and Connell!" To be continued.
