Heisei knight's trip

Chapter 654 The Chosen Warrior

It's night again.

As the breeze blows past, the leaves in the forest rustle, and the moon seems to be playing hide-and-seek with you, hiding in the misty clouds with a faint halo.

The fire ignited in the open area of ​​the village. Today is an important day for the village, and all the people in the village must participate. This also makes Rick and Mio, who moved out to live with Gao Yan, to take advantage of it before dark. , I have to go down the mountain and return to the village.

Human life in this era is not good. They must learn to coexist with nature, because natural and man-made disasters occur in this world from time to time.

People in this era are also quite awed by 'gods', so a special profession has emerged as the times require, that is - magician.

In this era of feudal superstition, the conjurer is equivalent to the local emperor, the most powerful person in the village, and even the village head has to listen to him/her.

In the Bagbo tribe, there is also a female magician who is in charge of the sacrificial activities in the village and is respected by the Bagbo tribe because of her magical spells.

This time the god sacrifice was also held by her.

On the ground is painted a weird pattern reminiscent of a skull, with torches set up around the pattern, reflecting the shadow of the central ring of stones on the ground.

Surrounding the pattern, a group of young and strong youths surrounded the pattern with their upper body bare, and among these young people, one of them hung his head, and that person was Rick.

Behind this group of young people, there are human beings kneeling in front of them.

In front of the ring of stones, there was a female conjurer with tattoos on her face, chattering, dancing and trembling all over.

As the female conjurer shook more and more violently, the village chief standing inside the pattern became more and more uneasy, fearing that God would not respond to their prayers.

Seeing that the female conjurer slowly calmed down, the village chief looked at the female conjurer with hope, shook his drooping white beard, and asked, "What is God's will? What is the path we should take?"

Regarding the village chief's question, the magician of unknown age turned around slowly, and then stabbed the burned red animal bone on the turtle shell in front of the altar.

"Crack~"

The flame burned the firewood, making a dry sound.

The conjurer suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Fight! It's a fight! You can't wait for the enemy to make a move. In this battle, whoever strikes first will win!"

These words caused a commotion among the people on the periphery, and they stood up one after another.

"Fight?."

"Is there no other way?"

"Nonsense, this is God's instruction! How can there be any other way!?"

"."

Among the group of young people, Rick's heart became more and more heavy. As he expected, he needed to fight.

Subconsciously looking at Mio who had already stood up in the crowd, those cloudy and distracted eyes deeply hurt Rick's heart. After letting out a sigh, he lowered his head.

The village chief glanced at the crowd around him. He felt uncomfortable too. He had lived and worked in peace and contentment for so many years, and suddenly fought. No one would be willing to give up such a life.

But if this continues, more villagers will die.

Therefore, the determined village head suddenly raised his head, and asked the conjurer with a ferocious face: "Then the name of the person chosen to represent our tribe's warrior is...?"

On the other hand, the magician who was asked this question had an unusual light in his eyes.

Finally got hooked!
"His name is Rick!"

The conjurer's answer made the young people watching couldn't hide their surprise. The young man who was standing there solemnly began to look for the figure in his memory.

Because this name is the name of the man who hates fighting the most among the candidates who volunteered to become warriors!

He is the strangest existence among this group of young people.

This feeling is like being in an elite class. All the students aim to be admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University, but none of them were selected by Tsinghua University. Tsinghua University and Peking University are so outrageous.

For a moment, Rick felt the eyes of the people around him, some were envious, some were jealous, some were confused, some were disappointed, but most of them were ridiculed.

Although they are not optimistic about Rick, those young people will not refute in person, because this is the decision of the conjurer, and it is a decision selected by the supreme person in this tribe.

And he himself fell into deep doubts.

This...is not a mistake, right?
Similarly, there were those few people in the crowd who reacted the most. Rick's aunt reacted the most, for no other reason than she was usually mean to the two brothers and sisters of Rick.

And his own children are also among the warriors. After all, every child's mother wants their children to become dragons and phoenixes, but now...
As Rick's younger sister, Mio is neither happy nor sad, because she knows what kind of person her brother is.

But the fingers of both hands betrayed her, she was not very calm, she was just good at covering up.

The sacrifice was not over yet, but two unexpected things happened. The village chief made a decisive decision and immediately shouted: "Okay! Rick, come out and come to the altar!"

Rick had no choice but to walk to the altar anxiously, facing the strange emotions of the young people from the same tribe.

Among the crowd, an old man with a long beard came out, came to Rick, and took out a wonderful spirit stone similar to a crystal ball from the fire-baked earthenware placed next to the altar.

Under the halo of the firelight, the spiritual stone did not show any fog-like dirty spots, and the colorful halo circulated in the complete spherical spiritual stone.

Such a stone can be said to be an industrial product that could not have been born in such an era.

"This is the mysterious spiritual stone 'Amadam' that has been passed down from generation to generation in the village since ancient times. It is taught to you here. Take it! Young warrior Rick!"

The old man handed the spirit stone in his hand to Rick.

Looking at the spirit stone in front of him, Rick had no choice but to accept the spirit stone respectfully.

The female conjurer who witnessed all this raised her mouth slightly, and then, as if possessed by something, she began to dance a strange dance, and the people around her also danced that strange dance.

Only Miou, who couldn't see anything, didn't dance with the surrounding villagers. She seemed to want to see what happened through her dull eyes.

Thump~!

The spirit stone pulsated as if it was alive, but the next moment, the spirit stone suddenly disappeared from his hand and was sucked into Rick's body, from which a dazzling colorful light began to radiate.

The bright light made everyone around them unable to open their eyes, waiting silently for the light to dissipate.

When the light dissipated, everyone held their breath, lowered their arms, and began to look for Rick's figure in the light.

"Wow~!!"

　My computer is finally back! !It's really tormented, it hasn't been updated for two days, and the draft on the 30th has evaporated as expected, really, crazy.

　　But I still want to thank Azhe, the Great God of Yanzhiming, Daxia Longying, and Huanlv's fox master for their monthly tickets. I will work harder this month and try to finish writing Kongwo.
