Chapter 592 Lying
After two days calmly, the villagers seemed to have forgotten the disaster brought by John, and everything seemed to have returned to their original state. Time here healed the painful wounds by unique means.
However, the dog at the village barked crazily in the afternoon of this day. People looked blankly at the end of the road at the entrance of the village in the distance. I don't know when a strange group of cavalry appeared.
When the cavalry came close, the dog no longer dared to bark and lay motionless on the ground, as if lest someone would notice their existence. The tall cavalry stepped on the back of the gray giant wolf, holding sharp crossbows in their hands.
These tall and powerful mounts roared in a low voice, and their slightly green eyes stared at the villagers around them, revealing a fierce light. On the basin-sized claws, sharp claws have been poked out, and they seemed to be eager to share a good meal.
There is a long knight's gun hanging on the saddle on the wolf's back, and the black armor is connected by the painted chain armor, hanging outside the soft wolf hair, scattering a scary cold light.
On the shield hanging on both sides of the knight's legs, the sharp bumping corners are polished. Behind the silver-white armor, there is an ugly mouth that can hardly be covered, revealing the black and yellow teeth inside.
Before the panicked villagers recovered, a tall cavalry officer slowly walked out of the team. He was dressed in black sword empire military uniform and silver epaulettes shining in the sun.
"I am the commander of the 1st Regiment of the 37th Cavalry Division of the 8th Group Army of the Holy Sword Empire. You don't need to know what it is. I'm here to ask you if you have seen a group of soldiers of the Holy Sword Empire who came here three days ago." He opened his mouth one by one, but what he said made the villagers frightened: "If you have seen it, can you tell me where they have gone?"
"General! We haven't seen the group of soldiers you mentioned. I wonder if they will go another way instead of passing by us? The village head was helped out. His injury has not healed yet. Now that he is in great trouble, he can only barely come out.
"Sir, the giant wolf smelled the rust-proof mud on the imperial armor. Three days ago, our soldiers did enter the village, and there was a faint smell of blood in some corners." An orc soldier came forward and whispered in the officer's ear and said, "Our people have gone to the woods outside the village, confirmed the location and are digging."
nodded, and the leading officer didn't seem to have the intention of disaping: "A few days ago, you have become civilians of the Holy Sword Empire. I should be more polite, but obviously you didn't tell me the truth, and seemed to have done something humiliating the beast warrior."
He paused, looked at the villagers and sneered, took off the white gloves in his hand, tucked them on the armed belt around his waist, took out a box of cigarettes, took out one in his mouth, twisted a thing depicting a small magic array, revealing a wisp of cyan flame, and lighting a cigarette.
Quiet, the whole village was so quiet that the wind blew and hit the face with sand, which made people feel desperate pain. A young woman ran over in a panic and whispered to the village head, "No! Village head! Outside the village! The village is surrounded! I saw them. They are digging the dense forest behind the village. The location is where we have moved.
The village head was stunned. He looked at the giant wolves that smelled everywhere and seemed to understand everything. He immediately collapsed on the ground, as if he had no soul.
Suddenly, a giant wolf roared, and the hair on his back stood up, staring at a burned ruins. Several wolf knights also gathered around and lifted the burned wooden beam with a long gun, revealing a well-deserved armor of the soldiers of the Holy Sword Empire.
"Let us go! Your Excellency! Please! For the sake of all women and children, let us go!" A woman couldn't hold herself anymore and fell to her knees crying: "Your excellency! Yes, it was done by the soldiers of the Holy Empire! We were also harmed by them! Please! Be compassionate!"
When others saw that they could no longer hide it, they knelt down: "We all know that the Sword Empire treats civilians preferentially! Please let us go! We don't dare anymore!"
"Where is the grain in the barn?" The officer suddenly asked.
"It was robbed by the soldiers of the Holy Empire." A woman cried and said, "They also threatened us, saying that if we said it, they would kill us."
"The book says that there should be 713 villagers here, but I don't see so much." The regimental commander seemed to be asking the adjutant beside him and the villagers in the village.
"The people of the Holy Empire captured 31 men and boys, took 5 young women, and 52 women committed suicide." The village head cried and said that he didn't know what the cavalry of the Sword Empire were waiting for. Why didn't they deal with the incident, didn't do anything, and didn't leave.
"The bodies were found, all died in the battle, and buried with the bodies of the villagers and the cavalry of the Holy Empire." An officer came to him and reported in a low voice.
"Don't let one go. Don't insult these enemies of the Holy Empire who are firmly resisting." The regimental commander waved his hand and motioned the soldiers to do it.
"Your excellency! We are not soldiers of the Holy Empire! They also hurt us! We are just civilians! We just lied!" The village leader pleaded, "Let us old people and children go!" Please show your mercy."
"The grain has been taken away, this is the enemy! The population has decreased, indicating that someone has joined the rebels! Together with a small group of enemy troops, they killed 13 officers and soldiers... The village plotted a rebellion, and the evidence is conclusive. Just report to the above, staff officer. After saying that, the head of the wolf cavalry looked at the village head and said, "Village head, I'm also lying now. Can you forgive me once?"
Looking at the old village head who was stunned and had nothing to say, the regimental leader continued with a cold smile and said, "Stay ten people and bake seven mature! His Majesty the Beast God said that eating raw is a symbol of barbarism, and we should be civilized people! Do you understand?" As soon as he finished his words, a giant wolf rushed up and tore the old village head in two.
Looking at his men nodding uncontrollably, he suddenly remembered something and stared back and asked loudly, "Is there salt?"
And in the direction of the village, countless wolf knights have rushed up, and a scream resounded through the sky, reflecting the blood-red sunset glow in the sky, and the crisp sound of a long knife cutting into the bones with a continuous sound.
Finally, the noise gradually dimmed like the firelight everywhere, and the ancient songs of the orcs sounded faintly. The bloody body was thrown to the giant wolf to bite, and the house was lit into a huge bonfire. They spent countless nights praying for the dawn of the beast god shining on the world.
