Use foreign lands to conquer the whole of Europe

Chapter 25 25: Moon Black Wind High Night
It's a new moon tonight, thick clouds cover the sky full of stars, and you can hardly see your fingers.

According to what Yu Brill talked about when he was wrangling, Angie successfully found the most remote cabin - Berg's residence.

It was even found that the hostess of the house they were staying in was standing guard nearby, looking very nervous.

"Don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door~ Sure enough, there are tricks."

Angie boasted a lot in her heart.She had expected that the hostess and hostess who had been late at night must have gone out to do some shady things...

Hey, wait, it seems so easy to make people think wrong.

The girl shook her head violently, shaking those strange thoughts out of her head.

She came here for a big deal!

Taking advantage of the dark clouds to cover the already dim moonlight, Anji tiptoed to the outside of the wooden house with the help of various houses and trees along the way, skillfully avoiding the sight of the hostess.

But the peasant woman has been patrolling around, and her leg is injured, and sooner or later she will show her feet.

Thinking of this, the girl lowered her voice, picked up the narrow sword in her hand and asked:
"Elia, can you make vines like ladders for me to climb?"

Seeing the host asking questions, Elijah's eyes kept rolling, as if he wanted to speak freely.

But under Angie's sharp eyes, it still suppressed those trash words and responded with actions.

Green vines gushed out from the hilt of the sword and climbed silently along the wooden wall to the thatched roof.

Anji endured the piercing pain when the wound burst, and climbed up lightly, and finally took back the vine and sword before being discovered by the hostess.

With the help of the original hole in the thatched roof, Angie was able to peek into the scene in the wooden house.

In the most remote cabin in Andercorfe, six villagers sit around a large wooden table.

Angie recognized at a glance that the gray-haired old man was Havok, the headman of Ande Coffey Village.

And the young man in his 20s sitting next to him was the host of their lodging house and Havok's son, Locke.

The other four were all middle-aged men. Although she didn't recognize them, they must be well-known figures in the village.

The villagers sitting in the house all had gloomy faces, full of anxiety and uneasiness.

An atmosphere of silence spread in the air.The faint candlelight illuminated everyone's faces, but it couldn't cover up their stiff breathing.

"Berg, what did you just say about Granville?"

The speaker was none other than Havok, the village chief.At this moment, he frowned, lowered his voice to relieve the tension, and asked the muscular middle-aged man sitting across from him.

"I've already said it—there has become a foreign land, and there are no survivors in the whole village."

Berg's voice was steady and powerful, and he seemed to be answering patiently, but there was a hint of disdain in his expression.

The room became dead silent again.These adults naturally understand what the term "None Survive" really means.

Angie on the roof was also very helpless: he ate melon on himself.

After a long time, a middle-aged man with a thick voice spoke slowly:
"Gran Village is the same border village as us, and the distance is not too far, so there is no lack of communication on weekdays. But such a village disappeared within a day, why did all the residents in Glosk keep silent about it? "

It was as if there had never been such a place as "Gran Village" in the world.

After the man finished speaking, the expressions of everyone present were more or less shaken, but no one was willing to speak first.

In such an extremely depressing environment, Locke, who was sitting next to the village chief, finally couldn't help but stand up, his voice trembling slightly due to his high emotions:
"How could such a thing happen? Isn't it absolutely safe inside the barrier? Slade..."

Just as he nervously said the almost taboo name, there was a loud "bang", which shocked the bodies of everyone present.

The right hand of Village Chief Havok slapped the table heavily.

This usually kind-hearted old man was obviously agitated, and his weather-beaten face covered with wrinkles looked a little hideous under the candlelight at this moment.

"Locke! Watch your wording!"

After being reprimanded by his father, the young man in his early twenties blushed instantly, and his tone became more excited:
"Didn't you say that before! That woman, she is not human at all!"

"For 50 years, she has ruled Glosk for a full 50 years! After such a long time, she has not changed - not only her face has not changed, but her body has not shown any signs of aging!"

"How can this kind of thing be a 'human'!"

hiss--

Such an astonishing truth is like a boulder thrown into the lake, stirring up turbulent waves among the silent crowd.

Everyone couldn't help but gasped, and looked at the indignant Locke in unison.

At this time, Angie was lying on the roof, listening with relish, and compiled the information he said in his head——

slade.

This woman who has been the lord of Glosk since half a century ago has a young face that looks at most 30 years old.

Time almost stopped for her.All the changes that humans can produce have never appeared in her body.

But the pair of pitch-black and twisted black claws became more terrifying as time went by.

She is naturally powerful.It is within the barrier she maintains that the villagers of Ande Coffey can live a peaceful and peaceful life.

But at the same time, she is also an inhuman monster—this is a fact that makes everyone living in Glosk Territory uneasy, but never speaks out easily.

But now, this fact was brought to the table by this young man who was so excited that he couldn't choose what to say.

For a while, these villagers had to face the terrifying truth they had long seen, and their mood became extremely complicated.

"Lock..."

Facing his young and energetic son, Havok's aging and slack face showed a bit of fatigue.

The old man muttered for a long while, and then, with a sigh, he vomited out to everyone those things that had been hidden in his heart for a long time.

The story happened 50 years ago in the village of Ande Coffey.

At that time, the village head of Havok was only ten years old, just at the age of ignorance, and the lord of Glosk was not Slade.

It was such an ordinary day that he couldn't even remember more details.But the encounter with that strange looking woman with black arms was firmly imprinted in his mind like a branding iron.

The young woman was only covered with tattered animal skins, her long black hair was messily draped behind her back, her dark eyes looked even more dull in the deep eye sockets, and her palm-sized face had an unusually burly face. figure.

The bare black arms were shriveled like coke after being scorched by karmic fire, and the slightly beating blood vessels were clearly visible, almost so thin that only skin and bones remained.

The most important thing is the pair of huge black claws covered with black scales, strange in shape, like beasts——

That's definitely not something that humans can grow.

Havok, who was still young, froze in place for a long time, and just about to escape, his eyes just happened to bump into those pair of dark eyes.

"Hey...you, know how to get to Kent County?"

A low and somewhat slurred voice came from her.

This sentence sounds stuttering and has a strange accent, which makes this strangely dressed humanoid look even more suspicious.

"Kent County? We only have Kent County..."

Despite his fear, the young boy answered the "young lady"'s question bravely.

"Ah... yes, yes. Kent, hehe..."

The seemingly small mouth suddenly grinned to both sides, forming a strange arc. It seemed to be smiling, but there was no smile in his eyes.

This scene was far from what Havok could understand back then—even now, 50 years later, he would occasionally wake up suddenly when he dreamed about this past event.

He could only think that the "person" in front of him was a sick lunatic, and after casually pointing her in the direction of Kent County, he fled the scene in a hurry.

Ten days later, the messengers from Kent spread the latest news throughout Glosk Territory——

The former lord, Grand Duke Bird Hazetash, has died in battle, and the new lord named Slade Raisa will take his place, and he will summon troops from various villages and towns to repair the old castle.
