Chapter 15: Village War Begins

The chief of Takina village didn't know whether he should be thankful for his foresight, as they were now being attacked by other villages.

Although it was night, he could still vaguely recognize a few familiar faces through the light of the torches.

As neighboring villages, Kaerba Village and Takina Village have always had a good relationship in the past, and there would be occasional intermarriages, but this also meant that both sides knew each other well.

After being bewitched by the red-robed missionaries, the people of Kaerba Village came to their senses and immediately decided to launch an attack on Takina Village, which they knew best and was closest to. They planned it unintentionally and attacked at night, and they felt they had a good chance of winning.

Although no one felt good about launching a near-genocide attack on a village with which they had good relations, there was no such thing as morality or kindness in order to survive.

But to their surprise, the night attack did not go smoothly, as if they had been prepared for it.

The village chief actually did not have any preset defense plan. His original plan was to attack Kaerba Village at night, but fate seemed to play a joke on them. Kaerba Village acted faster. They had just finished gathering when the other side came to their door.

This was actually beneficial, as the original sneak attack turned into a home defensive positional battle.

Moreover, these villagers from Kaerba Village rushed here overnight, and they must have consumed a lot of physical energy.

The come and go is a huge advantage.

The villagers were fighting with the people from Kaerba Village at this time. From time to time, the wounded who retreated looked at their village chief with admiration.

The village chief is indeed wise and capable. Not everyone believed him when he said that if they did not take the initiative to attack, they would be attacked. But now it seems that the village chief is worthy of being the village chief and is indeed far-sighted.

In terms of population alone, the two villages are similar, but the people in Takina Village are healthier.

But at this point the situation was almost one-sided, because the other side had plenty of physical strength and the village chief Takina had hidden a large number of official weapons while the other side could only use farm tools.

How do ordinary sickles and dung forks fare against longswords and battle axes?

After fighting for a while, it became an overwhelming advantage.

The two red-robed men standing at the end were whispering to each other. Logically, there should be two believers here to preach, but they are not seen now.

But perhaps because they were lost, the roads here were so rugged, and they found this village called Kaerba Village because they smelled a strong smell of despair.

But I didn't expect the gap in combat effectiveness to be so huge.

However, they were not generals who were good at commanding, and they didn't understand why they were in such a disadvantage, nor did they understand why the villagers here had so many formal weapons.

But these are not important, as believers of the God of Struggle they have their own solutions.

The chosen ones of the God of Struggle should be born in endless battles and ever-flowing blood, but the current one-sided scene obviously cannot meet this requirement.

Although the fighting ability of the villagers under his command is not as good as others, their status as believers is not comparable to that of ordinary people.

The two men in red robes looked at each other and decided to attack together.

They condensed blood arrows, and the condensed blood continued to surge in the air, aiming at the warrior who was rushing in the front and dancing wildly with two axes in his hand.

As the blood arrow streaked gracefully in the air, no one present could react to it.

A transparent hole was left on the Berserker's body, but such a wound could not cause immediate death, and his will to fight was not immediately diminished. He continued to swing the axe, knocking down two enemies in succession before falling down.

Then two more blood arrows shot out, this time the target was the old bandit village chief who was giving orders in the back row.

But the village chief was prepared after seeing the power of the blood arrow. When he found himself being targeted, he crouched and hid behind the crowd. Then the blood arrow, unable to turn, was forced to hit the shield, smashing the poor quality wooden shield into pieces.

Only clever and sharp robbers can live long, and the old robber village chief is just such a robber.

After dodging the attack, he immediately pulled out the magic crossbow that looked damaged and aimed at one of the men in red robes.

Just before the crossbow arrow hit the red-robed man, a blood shield bounced off his body, but it was meaningless. The crossbow arrow with strange power still penetrated the blood shield and then pierced the red-robed man's chest.

Seeing his teammate fall down, the other man in red was stunned. When he realized that he was also in the threat of death, he stabbed his own chest with his hand without hesitation.

As the blood-colored streak condensed, his red robe clung tightly to his body, and then his body swelled deformedly, like a giant ogre with three heads.

He let out a deafening roar, and the red-robed monster, which completely violated the laws of physics in Rand's previous life, grew larger and heavier and rushed straight towards the crowd in Takina Village.

…

When Rand returned to the hideout, he saw several believers carrying a deer with a wooden arrow stuck in the deer's heart. In order to facilitate hunting, he arranged for someone to make a decent small bow for Serai, who had hunting experience.

But isn't this archery too good? Rand looked at Serai suspiciously. Could this guy be an undercover agent? How did an ordinary villager use a shabby little handmade bow to avoid the protection of bones and accurately shoot a deer's heart? If he said it was pure luck, Rand didn't believe it.

Seeing Rand coming back, Thrai greeted Seth, and then the two of them ran to Rand together, looking like they wanted to say something.

Rand waved his hand, letting Taner go about his business, and then asked, "What is it?"

Serai and Seth whispered what the tax collector had done to Taner.

The more Rand listened, the more his brows furrowed.

Although the minister died because of the humiliation by his lord, how could the leader feel good when his subordinates suffered humiliation for him?

After listening, he was silent for a while, and then said: "Don't do it on your own, I will take you with me when the time comes."

He understood the thoughts of the two young believers and the anger in their hearts because he felt the same way.

He cannot directly confront the current lord baron of this territory now, as this would be irresponsible to his subordinates.

But finding an opportunity to take revenge on this arrogant tax collector who had humiliated Taner was something he had to do.

Although he found it strange that Taner joined the den for no apparent reason, and although he looked like a fanatical follower of the Goddess of Fertility, he actually would not do any evil, and was just like these ordinary believers.

But after spending some time together, Rand already considered him as a member of the group.

And that tax collector trampled on Taner's dignity.

Rand didn't know how much Tanner valued his dignity, or perhaps it was that ordinary people in this era were not qualified to have dignity.

But Rand at least did not accept it within his ability!
