Ram's disdainful words, combined with the words of the patriarch and the giant grandfather, made Luo Mo couldn't help but think of the civil war that happened in the kingdom decades ago, recorded in the history books.
This made him suspect that the patriarch wanted to provoke a civil war again.
After all, Ram's talent is indeed exaggerated, so even if there are only people from this village left in the ghost clan, everyone is a master and he is still young, and his strength can surpass the patriarch's Ram, it is not impossible. Unite the demi-humans to fight for the dominance of the kingdom.
".... This matter will be discussed later, and the ceremony will continue now."
The patriarch showed dissatisfaction when he heard Ram's evaluation, but he closed his eyes and rested without saying anything, and no longer cared about the affairs of their three children.
"Hmph, it would have been better if this happened earlier."
Ram had a triumphant look on his face, while Rem nodded to the patriarch and apologized for her sister's rudeness.
But the recent Ram is basically the same. Except for his parents, Rem, and Luo Mo, he has a ruthless attitude towards others... To be precise, he doesn't seem to be too merciful to Luo Mo.
But the ceremony continued in such a strange atmosphere, but.... from the primary and secondary point of view, it was inexplicably like Luo Mo married Ram, and then it was the feeling that Rem married Luo Mo.
Obviously this country is not monogamous, but it still makes Luo Mo feel that he is more monogamous.... I guess it's because the ghosts place too much emphasis on power, right?
However, the next day returned to the usual tranquility. The grandfather of the giants left the next day, and the long-lost visit to the village was gradually forgotten by everyone.
The days are still passing slowly, but Luo Mo plays with his young wives from time to time as usual, and then focuses on the exploration of the light halberd matrix by the river at night, and the cycle repeats day after day.
About a month after Luo Mo obtained the halberd matrix, when he was still studying magic alone late at night as usual, he firmly rejected the twin sisters who wanted to play with him, but today...not far away The village is in a different situation than usual.
.....................
The moonlight tonight was frighteningly bright, and under the moonlight, a strange shadow appeared in the dense woods near the village.
To be precise, it was a group of people whose whole body was covered in black robes, and their heads and faces were hidden by things like hoods, and even men and women could not judge.
These people are all holding cross-shaped daggers without exception. Whether it is judged from the clothes or the sharp weapons in their hands, it is not as simple as visiting or just passing by.
These people in black robes were silently hiding under the shade of the trees, until everyone fell asleep around two in the morning, and these people who remained motionless finally started to act.
They quietly and silently poured into the village from all directions, and easily opened the doors of the houses and sneaked inside.
The ghosts who have been at ease for a long time are completely unaware of the invasion of the shadows. The ghosts, which are known as the strongest race of demihumans because of their one-kids, are no different from ordinary people when they are unprepared. There is absolutely no difference at all. Those who resisted lost their lives in their sleep.
It was not until they invaded the house of the patriarch who had real combat experience and was the number one leader in the Asian army that they finally revealed their actions.
"--gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!"
An astonishing roar resounded through the sky, and also awakened the sleeping villagers.
The white-haired but old and strong patriarch, with two radiant horns on his forehead, forcibly tore the uninvited guest who broke into the house in half with his bare hands.
And more black-robed people who besieged the house, also raised their hands directly at this moment to throw fireballs, throw wind blades, summon ground thorns, and pour out all kinds of magic.
But the white-haired old ghost had already rusted with a blade that had lost its former edge and rushed out of the house, easily severing the surrounding black-robed people into two pieces.
And when he noticed how every household was burning, his whole body trembled, his eyes burst out with extreme anger, he let out a roar like a beast again, waving the big knife in his hand, he rushed towards the dark shadow coming towards him in the distance. vent your anger.
Those enemies who were shrouded in black robes from head to toe, but who were extraordinary in both magic and martial arts, were chopped down like straws in front of this old ghost, and no one could resist his path.
Obviously, there is a huge gap in strength between the two sides. Even if they are fighting the old ghost alone, they still have the ability to slaughter them all.
It's just.... I don't know why the old ghost has turned into a ghost, but the old ghost doesn't use magic at all, even the magic power or the strength of the limbs have not improved in any way, even the brilliance of the horns is dimmed little by little, and the movements are getting more and more. slow.
It is normal for a person to get tired quickly, but the physical fitness of the ghost clan should not be so low, but it seems that when he noticed something, the black-robed man who could only be left to slaughter was surrounded by the old ghost who was too sluggish. They also seized the opportunity to stab the cross sword into the body of the white-haired old ghost who was inexplicably incompetent.
The burly figure trembled violently, and then fell backwards so straight and completely lost his voice.
.................
Luo Mo, who didn't know anything about what happened in the village, was still meditating with his eyes closed by the river, but he was suddenly startled by the roar of people who suddenly came from a distance.
"This voice.... the patriarch? He doesn't have anything to howl at night? Could it be that he is learning from wolves? Want to be a wolf?"
Luo Mo, who was so frightened that he opened his eyes reflexively, complained depressedly while looking in the direction of the village, wondering what the patriarch was trying to do.
But when he turned in the direction of the village, he froze in place.
The dark night sky is already a fiery red... It seems to be lit by the raging fire from the ground.
Before he can figure out what's going on, then...
--boom! ! !
A huge roar suddenly erupted in the direction of the village, completely breaking the supposedly quiet night.
The beautiful villages in the valley became noisy in the blink of an eye. The sounds of screams, roars and miserable howls were played in a disorderly manner, and even the panicked voices of people could be faintly heard by the river.
The power of the ghost clan is undeniable, but they have been at ease for too long, and they still don't understand the truth of thinking about danger in times of peace.
Even if you are still taught magic and martial arts, let alone normal fighting and killing, it is rare to even fight once in the village all year round. Every day is just farming, hunting, giving birth, and raising children in the village, even if you are reluctant to fight. The enemy was soon outnumbered by the number of opponents.
Compared to the panicked villagers, those black-robed people never made any sound. Whether it was killing or being killed, they just ignored men, women and children like marionettes without mercy, and carried out indiscriminate slaughter.
