Expansion plans have been rejected time and time again, and people's evil thoughts have gradually emerged. Even if the Centaur Gondro is driven away, the Pillar of the Earth will still send other druids. Just when people were in a dilemma, a mage who moved to a small town came up with a fearsome and bold plan. He would kill Gondro and then blame the orcs, which could solve the problem of all the obstacles. The source of the town's development, and there is no need to worry about the revenge of the Druid, killing two birds with one stone. Although the risks are high, the huge rewards turn into a frenzy that drowns people's sanity. After careful planning and patient waiting, an excellent opportunity finally arrived three months ago. Years of severe drought and hunger have forced the orcs to raid more frequently than in previous years. Although this small town, which used to be relatively safe, was not attacked due to the prestige of the Pillars of the Earth, they did not spare the crops produced in the fields near the river bank. . In order to make the orc invasion more deceptive, the people who participated in the plot deliberately moved the food planting areas closer to the town little by little. Under the leadership of the mayor and the cooperation of one-third of the residents, they used the two roads passing by to A caravan faked an orc attack on Riverdale and successfully tricked the druid into leaving the town. Unexpectedly, as soon as Gondro died, orcs appeared out of nowhere and killed all the militiamen who had just experienced a fierce battle. Only a few escaped by chance. Although Fran did not participate, he was also an insider. "What? Gundro wasn't killed by an orc?" Beqi, who went to the Suling Hall to pray every month, couldn't believe what she heard. Although centaurs and horses are alien races, they are kind to others and have a gentle personality that is completely opposite to their strong and burly bodies. When she first heard that he was killed by an orc, Becky secretly vowed to practice hard and avenge Gondro one day. She never thought that the druid who had protected the town for decades would be killed by the townspeople. Many of them grew up following Gundro's teachings. Why? Just because it blocks the way to make money? "This is the difference between adults and children." It was as if I heard Becky's voice. The son of nature sneered, his indifferent expression full of ridicule to the townspeople. "Wewe have no choice but to do this" Among the crowd, someone took the lead in saying something, and the townspeople, shrouded in uneasiness and fear, started talking. "That's right. It's all Gundro's fault. If he had agreed to our expansion of the town, there wouldn't have been such a result." "This is our town, and we should have the final say on what to do!" " We don¡¯t want future generations to be satisfied with just food and clothing.¡± ¡°It¡¯s just an outsider, a foreigner, dictating things!¡± Becky couldn¡¯t believe what he saw with his own eyes and heard with his own ears. This is the harmonious River Valley Town of the past? Are those happy things an illusion? With no taxes and no suffering from war, what else do they want? Like the big city that the business traveler mentioned? Living in a splendid big house, wearing fine clothes and delicious food all day long, and playing music every night? The Son of Nature did not answer, and his originally narrow eyes narrowed. Something seemed to explode in the air, crackling, and everyone's excitement seemed to be blown by the north wind. The temperature dropped instantly, and panic enveloped them again. "I am also an outsider, a foreigner. In order to prevent your scandal from being exposed, do you want to kill me too?" People's faces varied. Although no one answered, everyone had the same idea in mind. If possible, If soif he wasn't the Son of Nature, if he wasn't so strong The tense atmosphere was on the verge of breaking out, and even a slow person like Becky felt something was wrong. "My lord!" Fran knelt down on one knee. Standing between the townspeople and the children of nature. "As the patrol captain, I shoulder the responsibility of guarding the town. I failed to dissuade the mayor from making a big mistake, and I failed to warn Gundro, who has the friendship of teaching. I have committed double responsibilities. If you want to punish me, Please punish me. " "Captain" Becky exclaimed along with other patrol members. "Ohare you willing to bear the responsibility of killing the Druid yourself?" The son of nature's terrifying eyes turned to stare at the middle-aged man kneeling in front of him, and the pressure on the others suddenly decreased. "Yes." Fran closed his eyes. If he could exchange one person for the forgiveness of the Son of Nature, he would be willing to give up himself, but it would only hurt Nina Becky tried to pull Fran up, but he was determined to trade himself for everyone's lives. He turned around to let others persuade Fran, but saw undisguised joy on their faces, and the words that had reached their lips were stuck in their throats. Why? The captain obviously took the blame for you, why didn't anyone speak up for him, why didn't anyone stand up Why "Haha" the laughter of the son of natureThe townspeople who thought they could escape became nervous again. "The human heart is the most unpredictable thing in the world. There are saints who are willing to give up themselves for others, and there are villains who are willing to give up others for themselves." The son of nature did not look at the adults who gasped, and turned his gaze Turning to Becky, who was already in tears, "If it were you, what would you choose? Let the beloved captain calm down the anger of the Earth Pillar alone? Or let everyone face my judgment together?" Me? Becky was a little confused. You want me to make such an important decision? "Becky!" Fran shouted, the desire in his eyes was stronger than before, he was begging to die. "Becky!" the townspeople shouted in unison, their eyes warning as they were seeking survival. "II can't" Tears blurred her eyes, and Becky shook her head repeatedly. Seeing that Becky had not given an answer, the son of nature urged: "Hurry up, before my patience runs out." With life and death in mind, Becky had never made such an important decision. Becky was hesitant and trapped, and did not dare to give up easily. Come up with the answer. "There is no need to feel guilty, this is my choice." Fran introduced the men and horses as close friends, but for the sake of the townspeople, his compatriots, and the interests of the ethnic group, he let Gondro live and die. This can be regarded as compensation for him. In contrast, the attitude of others can be described as abominable. "What are you hesitating about?" "You brat, do you want everyone to be buried with you?" "Don't you see, I'm impatient now? Answer quickly!" Looking at Fran, who had a calm expression and was ready to die, After looking at the townspeople who were glaring at her fiercely, Becky, who was also an orphan like Erwin, felt unsteadily in her heart. His parents died early, and he has been surviving until now relying on the help of others. The captain is also a father and a teacher, and he is an irreplaceable existence. What should he do? No matter which side you choose. He will spend the rest of his life in regret. Becky still shook his head, the son of nature did not want to wait any longer. "If you can't make a decision, then let me choose for you." Countless green branches emerged from the ground. Rolling up some townspeople who were trying to escape. "Ah, ah, Becky, you have to die!" "Traitor!" "Curse you!" "Kill Fran, let us go" "We don't want to die" Cursing and pleading in the silent night After echoing for a long time, Becky's tears dried on her cheeks. Regardless of whether she would be punished for her offense, she hugged the legs of the child of nature. He shouted in a broken tone: "Since someone has to be punished for this matter, punish me and let the captain and everyone go." Fran never expected that the always cowardly Becky would say this In this case, he hurriedly looked at the Son of Nature, fearing that he would accept Becky's request. "Sir, if you feel that one person cannot quell Zhu's anger, then add me." Nina walked out of the door of Suling Palace, which was not closed. She heard the quarrel outside in Suling Palace, and finally understood why her husband Why have I been so depressed these past few months? The brow is not raised. "Even if you don't know anything about it?" The son of nature turned around, and his cold eyes only made Nina take a step back. She quickly trotted to Fran, took her husband's arm, and snuggled tightly with him. "I love Fran more than anything. If he dies as a result of your punishment, I will probably take revenge and do something to endanger Riverdale. This goes against my husband's original intention. Rather than that, I would rather go with him." Die." His scrutinizing eyes glanced back and forth between the three of them several times. The corners of the Son of Nature's mouth that had been drooping finally rose for the first time. "Fortunately, your humanity has not been completely wiped out. Zhu is very tolerant of the offenders who are kind-hearted and sincerely regretful." Becky, who was ready to die, did not understand the meaning of this sentence for a moment. Fran first said shock. Then he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart that had just been relieved was hanging again because of the next words of the son of nature. "However, this does not mean that others can escape punishment." The branches grew wildly and turned into a tree man two people tall. He threw the other townspeople who were still cursing from the entrance of the tree hole, and even placed them in the dormitory. The old, weak, women and children in the spiritual hall were not spared either. They were driven away from their home where they had lived all their lives. The elf Iris chased him out with a worried look on his face. As a druid, he could not disobey the son of nature who represented the will of the pillars, but it was not difficult to see his thoughts from his disapproving expression. "Why are you doing this? It is men who make decisions, and it has nothing to do with women and children?" As the only woman who has not been evicted, Nina knows that women have no right to participate in decision-making meetings. "It was their relatives who committed the killings, it was them who allowed their inner demons to breed, and it was everyone in River Valley Town who led things to the current situation. If you had not sincerely repented, you would have been kicked out with them by now. "The Son of Nature raised his hands, and the ground tilted. Except for the Suling Hall, the whole town rose. Becky and Fran were lifted up by an invisible air current. They watched helplessly as the town lying on the river was 'uprooted' by the power of the Son of Nature and turned into a bigger tree man, crossing the river. river and into the dense Horacio forest. "What are you doing?" Iris's heart moved, but he was not sure whether his guess was correct. "Human beings are not worthy of the mercy of the Pillars of the Earth. I can no longer let them defile the Tree of Life." Under the incomparable power of the Son of Nature, a real island of soil and stone was raised in the middle of the river, a huge stone that cannot be excavated by man. It was erected as a bridge to connect the new river valley town with the river bank. The evicted townspeople stood by the river and looked at their homes that had been transformed in a blink of an eye. They were filled with sorrow and regret. How could they be so naive to think that as long as they got rid of the druids, they could enjoy this peaceful place to themselves? place? But no matter how upset they are, it can't change the fact that they were exploited for profit. Their property, home, and stable life have all gone forever along with the evil thoughts that grew in their hearts. (To be continued.)
