After finishing the meal, the village chief first expressed his gratitude to Chu Zihang and others, then said something to the young woman and asked her to take Felice out.

Phyllis just walked out of the door, ran back, carefully picked a petal from the poppy flower, and handed it to Chu Zihang: "Thank you, brother, for the delicious food."

Then he ran out again with a red face.

"I said, isn't this the can I took out?"

Fingel arched Lu Chen's elbow and whispered, he was a little confused.

"Brother Fingel, you must know that under certain circumstances, you have no human rights."

Lu Chen felt a little funny and glanced at Chu Zihang, who was also a little confused.

At this moment, the village chief interrupted the laughter exchange between several people, and he said in a low voice: "You guys didn't come here by mistake, right?"

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the room became serious.

Lu Chen and others looked at each other, and finally the village chief continued to speak, pointing at Fingel and saying: "You can't all come from the Eastern Divine Land. He is different from you."

Fingel is a Caucasian, obviously not like Lu Chen and others.

"We have indeed heard the legend of this place and came here to look for it."

Chu Zihang replied.

The village chief waved his hand and said in a low voice: "Don't be nervous, everyone. I have long thought that such a day would come. Since the return of the gods a few days ago, some things have become different."

"God? Has he ever appeared in the village?"

After Chu Zihang translated, he continued to ask.

The village chief recalled: "About ten days ago, a strange oriental man came here like you. At that time, it also caused quite a stir in the village. The man also looked very frightened and confused. He was still at the head of the village.

How many days did that family stay?"

After Chu Zihang translated the village chief's words, he did not continue to ask questions. Although he didn't know why, the village chief seemed to want to tell them the whole thing.

"The man was frightened at first and his mood was very unstable, but then he calmed down. Although he didn't understand our language, he was very happy to get along with everyone...until the divine envoy came to the divine city."

"The divine envoy knelt respectfully in front of the man, frightening the man to death, but then the divine envoy took out an orb wrapped in cyan mist and put it in the man's hand. The man stood there for a long time, and then ordered

The suffocating power came from him, and the villagers couldn't control themselves. They knelt down and kowtowed. Giant dragons flew in the sky, and distant bells rang out from the Bronze City, like a grand tribute."

"The envoy of the god knelt down and raised his hands and shouted... to welcome the king's return. The god has returned to the warm countryside."

The village chief narrated something shocking, and after Chu Zihang translated it, Lu Chen and others felt uneasy.

It turns out that Ronald Tang did not come to offer his sword to the king. This was not a soldier returning to the army, but the king returning to his throne!

But this is not the main concern of Lu Chen and others. What they are curious about is why the village chief wants to tell them this?

"Travelers, you came here intentionally, and you don't just want to explore. You..."

The village chief looked at Lu Chen and the others and said shockingly: "...they are here to kill the gods."

"Old man, have you misunderstood something?"

Chu Zihang thought this was a test by the other party.

The village chief shook his head and said with a smile: "Although I am old, I am not stupid yet. Why do you think the villagers were so nervous at first? Look at yourselves again. Does this look like an explorer?"

After Chu Zihang translated, Lu Chen and others were a little embarrassed. This was indeed a low-end dazzle.

Chu Zihang had Murasame, not to mention Fengel and Jiude Mai, on his waist, but Lu Chen had two long knives on his body, and a dragon-slaying weapon as tall as a person on his back, which didn't look like anything at all.

It's a good thing.

"Then old sir, since you know our purpose, why do you entertain us so warmly?"

Lu Chen asked Chu Zihang to help explain.

"Because... I also want to kill God."

The village chief's old eyes lit up with a faint golden light. It was not because his bloodline was not high, but because under the influence of the discipline field, it was very difficult to ignite the golden pupils. He could ignite the golden pupils,

It has been shown that he is at least a hybrid of A-level blood.

Lu Chen and others were silent for a while after hearing this, and then asked: "Can I ask why?"

They wanted to slay the dragon because of the secret party's "mission", while Lu Chen wanted to find a powerful opponent to kill him and complete the main mission.

But the Inuit people in this warm countryside seem to be living a good life, avoiding the severe cold outside. Shouldn't they be grateful to God?

"What do you think of this place? Everyone has food and clothing? The doors are open at night?"

The village chief asked back expressionlessly. Seeing that several young people did not answer, he continued: "These are all illusions. Didn't you notice something weird about this village on the way here?"

Chu Zihang pondered for a moment and said: "There are too few women and the population is too small."

Yes, during the meal just now, they also learned about part of the situation here. They learned that there is a vast land behind the Bronze City. The land is fertile. If you work hard in farming, you can definitely ensure food and clothing. But there are only more than a thousand people here.

people.

According to the population value-added model and the production capacity of this place, after so many years, there should be hundreds of thousands of people, which is normal.

"Yes, God has given us gifts, but he does not ask for anything in return. This is not only the warm home that everyone longs for in an extremely cold place, but it is also our prison. It is like humiliation for us to be kept here in captivity...

livestock."

The village chief spoke faster and faster, and the look on his old face became more ferocious, and in the end he was gritting his teeth.

After Chu Zihang translated, Fingel was also a little confused, "It sounds weird, do dragons still eat people?"

Naturally, the village chief couldn't understand the bad words he said, but Lu Chen and the others did. Although Fingel's words were a bit unserious, they probably hit the point.

If it is not because of natural factors that limit the population, then it can only be that the dragon clan in the Bronze City is deliberately controlling the population. As for whether it is cannibalism, it is hard to say.

The village chief continued in a low voice: "Every year in the sacred city, two girls from the village are selected as sacrifices, and after the girls in our village are born, they are engraved with numbers for the gods to randomly select.

.”

"What exactly is a divine messenger? Is it humanoid?"

Chu Zihang asked questions that everyone was concerned about.

"No, it's a monster with a snake head and human body. The angel is very powerful. People here can't bear the heart of disobedience at all. The child was taken away, so they can only reluctantly forget about it, give birth to another child, and pray for the next one.

It’s a boy, but boys also have a hard life, because few boys can find a wife.”

The village chief explained and continued: "Few girls here are lucky enough to live to adulthood. Every girl who lives to adulthood will receive blessings from everyone and be sought after by the boys in the village, so there are people on the road.

So many people smile warmly at you."

The village chief's last words were to Mai Shutoku, but she herself had not realized it before. In her opinion, as long as she showed up, men would behave like this wherever she went in public.

"Oh, now I understand why the Inuit people launched a rebellion in the past. I can't stand it if anyone else shoots my daughter!"

Fingel suddenly said, and he estimated that the reason for the current small population is also the factor that the dragon clan in the Bronze City is worried about the recurrence of rebellion.

After all, they are raising pigs, and farmers also know that if they breed more and then eat them, they will have less impact on the total number.

"Is this the Dragon Clan?"

Lu Chen sneered and said, it seemed that he didn't know enough about this race. The previous textbooks described how cruel the dragon race was and how they enslaved people like livestock, but he didn't have any real understanding of it.

On the contrary, after fighting against a few people, I feel that the Dragon Clan is quite pure. It seems that he has overgeneralized everything.

"Junior Brother Lu, do you understand that the Dragon Clan despises hybrids and considers them to be despicable pigs, but just like people hate pig offal, but will eat pork, of course, they should not be eaten as food, and it is certainly not the case when choosing sacrifices.

Randomly, but choosing the ones that are good for their bloodline."

After saying that, she glanced at Chu Zihang and said to herself that just like Chu Zihang devouring those giant pythons, this was the sublimation of his bloodline and the completion of his strength.

"Isn't it just because of this that you have the idea of ​​resisting? Is it because of your granddaughter Phyllis?"

Chu Zihang asked. The village chief looked quite old. He should have seen life and death many times over the years, but the other party couldn't bear it now.

He guessed that this time the city must have touched the village chief's evil scale.

But the village chief nodded and shook his head, leaving Chu Zihang and others confused.

"Phyllis has indeed been chosen, but this time it's not just Felice. The city of God is going to conduct an unprecedented sacrifice. The time is tomorrow. The God's envoy informed me about this and asked me to select 500 villagers to enter the city. This is

Take our lives!"

The village chief's words made Lu Chen and others think deeply.

The Inuit outside were "happy" going about their daily work, farming, eating, talking and laughing, but little did they know that they were already on the death list.

"Five hundred people... This Dragon King has quite a big appetite."

Lu Chen sneered.

"It should be that building a dragon body requires a lot of biological energy. The flesh and blood of his hybrid species are excellent nutrients."

Mai Shutoku analyzed.

"It seems that we came by chance. It's not too late. If we come back after tomorrow, we may face the complete Dragon King."

Fingel said thankfully.

At this time, the village chief continued to speak, "I ask again, are you here to kill the gods?"

After being translated by Chu Zihang, Lu Chen smiled and said, "Senior Brother Fingel, you're feeling guilty. This is an NPC issuing a mission to us."
