chapter 5 Evil Nightmare

They walked for an unknown amount of time and came to a plain in the forest. There was a stream here and there were many quaint thatched houses around it. The dwarves also raised many animals. This is a very typical primitive village. In a world full of noisy cities, it is really rare to have such a paradise.

When they saw such a small village full of vitality and smelled the faint fragrance of grass, everyone felt much better. Anubis said excitedly: "Good place, I like it."

Merric Ince, who is used to life in a big city, also feels the tranquility that is not found in big cities. He took a deep breath through his nose. He liked the smell of the faint grass. There was no autumn at all here, and the grass was still emerald green.

Jakub was also very excited as he followed Anubis, and said to Anubis: "brother Anubis, this place looks like our hometown, but the house is a bit shorter."

When the village chief and other dwarf guards heard what Jakub said, they all looked at him with disdain. How tall are the houses in a dwarf village? Anubis glanced at Jakub, "Shut up, don't embarrass me."

"Oh!"Jakub ducked aside naively.

Hailey wanted to dismount, but the knight held her up very gentlemanly to prevent her from falling. When Hailey's hand touched the knight's hand, Hailey's face turned red shyly.

The dwarf village chief came to everyone at this time, raised his hands in a welcoming gesture, and said loudly: "This is our village, everyone is welcome."

In the blink of an eye, it was already evening, and Merric Ince and the others were sitting around the dinner table at the village chief's house. The village chief's wife was a kind fat dwarf who prepared a sumptuous dinner for them, all of which was green and pollution-free food, including braised fish. , roasted sweet potatoes, boiled corn, roast chicken and other home-cooked dishes. Everyone has been working hard for almost a day, and they are all very hungry. Seeing these delicious meals, they are already salivating and eager to try them. The little giant Jakub's saliva is almost dripping to the ground. He is already tall, and he sits in the room. , his head touched the roof, and he opened his mouth "hahahahahaha", but Anubis didn't say anything, and he didn't dare to take action.

The village chief saw the hungry faces around the table and said with a smile: "Everyone, let's eat. You're welcome. Just come and eat as if you were at your own home."

Everyone laughed. Except for the knight, everyone started to take action. Jakub pulled off the drumstick of the roasted chicken and directly entered his mouth. Then a perfect drumstick bone was pulled out from his mouth. It was too fast. Hailey was stunned when he saw it, but soon began to taste the fish soup, which was very fresh. This was caught by the dwarf village chief and others from the river when they went hunting in the morning. However, the hunting process was interrupted by the sound of the red hat's horn. The place where they were hunting was very close to Anubis and the others, so they arrived quickly. , it's a pity that instead of teaching others a lesson, he was beaten up by others.

Merric Ince tasted the braised fish. It tasted much more delicious than the ones in big cities. It was not cooked with too many seasonings, and the fishy smell was removed by the village chief's wife using a special method. The fish melted in his mouth and was endlessly delicious. Anubis was enjoying the meal even more. He was holding a corn cob in one hand and a piece of chicken in the other. His lips were all oily. The village chief no longer had the ferocious face in the forest, but a happy face. Smile as if nothing happened in the forest.

Everyone ate happily. The village chief picked up the wine glass made of snail shells in his hand, toasted the knight with a glass of wine, and said: "I have offended you today, and we are not acquainted with each other. This toast to you is a sign that we dwarves Sorry to all of you."

The knight raised his glass and responded politely, "The village chief is polite, but I don't know why your dwarf village is so repulsive to us humans. There are always people missing here recently, does it have anything to do with you?"

"It really has nothing to do with us. We don't know anything about Red Hat going out to rob. I will educate him in the future. But there are many people missing here, and we are also one of the victims."

"Oh, what's going on?" the knight continued to ask.

The village chief sighed deeply and said: "It's a long story. In the past, the people in our dwarf village were very friendly to the human race. Since the chief Wulfric led the Holy Sky Army to defeat the warlord who used to live in this place, our Life is getting better day by day. We often trade with the humans with the prey we capture and the vegetables we grow. This will also greatly improve our lives. The original warlords robbed us of food and resources, and our lives were very difficult. Poor people, thank the chief Wulfric for giving us dwarves and humans equal rights.”

Merric Ince felt very proud when he heard someone praising his father so much.

After hearing this, the knight became even more puzzled, "So you shouldn't be at odds with the human race?"

"It happened a year ago." The village chief said this, sighed, took another sip of wine, and continued with a sad look on his face: "A year ago, a magician wearing a black magic robe came to us. He was holding a big wand inlaid with purple crystal in his hand. He said he wanted us dwarves to give him something. We were very confused and asked him where it came from. He just laughed and said nothing, so we asked him what he wanted. He only said two words - 'soul'. Of course we dwarves didn't understand what it meant, but he raised the wand. In an instant, our heads felt like they were going to explode. Later, we all fainted, but when I woke up , my son and daughter are gone, and many young dwarves in our village are missing, leaving a six-pointed pattern on the ground, woo hoo...", the dwarf village chief cried, "My child! "

The village chief's wife also began to secretly shed tears and burst into tears. Hailey quickly took out a tissue, handed it to the village chief's wife, and began to try to comfort the poor mother, "The six-pointed star sign, that is the sign of High Priest Hailong."Merric Ince knows the origin of the six-pointed star.

Anubis was also surprised: "You are talking about the evil priest who is called the 'Soul Eater'. He is the criminal at the top of the "Niphob Evil List". It is said that he especially likes to suck people's souls. At the same time, Enslaves people controlled by him or people of other races, especially those children with pure hearts. Once they become his slaves, unless they die, they will be controlled by him, do things for him, and become his puppets for the rest of their lives. What a sad life. !”

"Yes."Merric Ince agreed, "This evil mage is the most wanted criminal in many countries. Many people with a sense of justice went to arrest him, but most of them died tragically at the hands of High Priest Hailong."

Hearing what Merric Ince said, Anubis clenched his fists and said angrily: "If he falls into my hands, let's see if I kill him."

"You can't even deal with two dwarf mages, how can you deal with this terrifying priest whose combat power has reached the fourth level of heaven level."Merric Ince was very disapproving, but he didn't expect that it would not take long. He will be entangled by an ancient evil spirit that is dozens of times more terrifying than this evil priest, and thus begin a journey in life that is unpredictable for him.

The dwarf village chief cried even more sadly. The knight patted the village chief's shoulder gently, "I'm sorry for causing you sad memories. I'm sorry. Did you report the missing child to the Shengyu City Guards?"

"Reported." The village chief's wife choked with sobs. "Originally, the guards were very serious about the disappearance of our children. They sent many guards to the Mansoura forest to search for them, but in the end they found nothing. A few months ago, they changed their attitude to a guard captain. This guard captain Knowing that it was High Priest Hailong, we stopped pursuing it. We once asked why, and he said, "High Priest Hailong is a wanted criminal in the entire star field. The police in so many countries have not traced the results. We will help you trace it." After a while, I have tried my best. If I want to continue tracing, I have to...', and then he rubbed his right thumb and index finger together. This is asking for money. How can we have so much money? We originally wanted to complain to them, But he sent his men to injure us, and said that if we cause trouble again, we will destroy our dwarf village. What will we, the powerless dwarf villagers, do?"

"Who is so bold? Isn't this not taking the laws of the Holy Sky Alliance seriously?"Merric Ince said angrily.

"His name is Carlos Giffy. The third son of the patriarch of the Giffy family."

"The Giffy family, no wonder they are so rampant. The Giffy family is the third largest family on our eastern continent. Their family has always been so domineering."Anubis was also a little angry, "These rich people are all sanctimonious. , hypocritical at heart, none of their descendants are good people, they are just relying on their father's wealth."Anubis spat out, completely ignoring that this was at the dinner table.

Merric Ince looked at him and asked: "Do you hate the rich!?"

Anubis snorted and sneered a few times, indicating that he agreed with Merric Ince's words.

"Our brother Anubis has beaten up all the playboys in our area. No matter whether they are rich or powerful, they are all bullshit in the eyes of our brother Anubis. In our place, there is no kid from a rich family who doesn't run around when he sees our brother Anubis. .."Jakub said proudly.

Anubis interrupted him, "Be low-key and low-key. I just can't stand those young men who only know how to behave and do nothing every day."

"We sympathize with your experience, but you can't blame all the faults on our human race just because the scum of our human race kidnapped your children, and our human race's guards didn't do anything. After all, our human race is still full of good people. , we can’t ignore what happened to you today after we know it, right, Flame Knight?”Merric Ince said as he threw the words to the Flame Knight.

The Flame Knight had a solemn expression and pondered for a while, "Yes, since such a world-wide wanted criminal has come to our Holy Heaven Allies, the laws of our Holy Heaven Allies will not let him go. Leave your children's affairs to me. , I will definitely not let you down, this is my duty as the Templar of the Holy Heaven Ally." After the knight finished speaking, he looked at the village chief very sincerely, "Trust me!"

When the village chief and his wife heard what the knight said, they were very moved. Finally, a capable person was willing to help them. They kept thanking the knight. They were so moved that they almost knelt down, but the knight helped them up. With the knight's promise, they finally had hope. Everyone continued to eat, but the atmosphere was no longer as lively as it was at the beginning.

After eating, it was already dark. The village chief and others found a place for them to stay and let them have a good night's rest. Since everyone is going to Shengyu College, he will personally lead the way tomorrow so that everyone can do their own thing as soon as possible. At the same time, he can also go to Shengyu City Guards with the knights. With this Templar Knight from Bauhinia City, I believe Giffy will not dare to do anything.

At night, everyone quickly fell into a dream.

The village was silent late at night. Merric Ince was asleep. Suddenly he felt very cold, as if something was caressing him. He opened his eyes suddenly, and the sunlight outside the house shone on his face. He covered it with his hands. Open your eyes, is it dawn? Why didn't anyone tell him to get up? Merric Ince looked around in confusion and saw that no one was alone. Where were the knights and the others?

Merric Ince got dressed and walked out of the room. The sky outside the house changed. It was sunny just now, but now it has become cloudy. The surrounding scenery no longer looks like a dwarf village. When Merric Ince turned around, he found that the thatched cottage where he had just slept had disappeared, the forest was gone, and the stream was gone. What happened?

It seemed like he was the only one left in this world. The scenery in front of me began to change again. The place was filled with corpses of tragic victims and blood-stained weapons. It was like a battlefield, a battlefield where a great battle had just occurred.

Merric Ince was a little scared. Suddenly a powerful whirlwind fell from the sky, blowing the dead bodies around like fallen leaves everywhere. Some corpses almost hit Merric Ince, so he hurriedly took a few steps back.

After the strong wind passed, a blood-red sword was left on the ground, with a faint black air still on it, and the blade of the sword penetrated the ground.

The black air on the sword became thicker and thicker, gradually turning black into a cloud about five or six meters high. The clouds slowly turned into a human form again. This person's eyes were blood red and he looked straight at Merric Ince, which made Merric Ince in his heart.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, why did you just come?" Heiqi made a deep voice.

"Who are you?"Merric Ince cautiously took a few steps back.

"Hahahaha!" Heiqi let out a slow and terrifying laugh. Before Merric Ince could react, the entire black energy suddenly surged and rushed toward Merric Ince
