Chapter 398
As a guest, Donald entire group is allowed to directly participate in the Winter Festival.
Of course, only as a bystander, sitting at the center of the cross street, separated by a cheerful crowd.
A year of busyness, at the end of winter is the time to enjoy, adults chat with each other about interesting things that have happened around them in recent times, and occasionally when they talk about the rise, they fold their palms and laugh happily. They were fighting around the table, and some greedy little devils sat beside the adults early, with knives and forks in their hands, wishing for the next moment to start the annual feast, but they often stopped by his parents.
Because the Great Sage is hosting the Winter Festival.
“This is pheasant soup, this is roasted rabbit, this is…”
Anthony put his hands in front of him, distinguishing it with a chef’s professional sense of smell Those dishes on the table of a few meters away.
“You have to go on and on, maybe I’ll spend a few coins to get myself a seat.”
Donald, who was holding the meatloaf in his hand, glanced helplessly. He glanced at him, because he met the village chief again before the winter festival, which caused the hostility of these villagers again. It is still difficult to get some flavors.
“The Great Sage of Claremont seems to be getting ready to start the Winter Festival.”
Stephanie patted Donald’s shoulder, looking towards the dais in the middle of the street.
“Gentlemen, I’m glad that during this year, the village’s…”
There are no obscure oracles or demands of the people for the god of harvest and hunting. Expressing a certain attitude or gift, Claremont is like an old man dressed in a more formal dress standing on the stage and telling the villagers about the situation in the village this year, such as who’s harvest has increased again, Someone added a new population, or a young man married a wife, and there were some funny words during the period, which often caused a lot of applause and laughter.
Even the corners of Donald’s mouth twitched involuntarily when he listened to those sleazy jokes.
The wandering life in the past few years brought Clermont not only the physical pain and the scorn and contempt of others during the trip, but also the wind and rain. The calmness and eloquence developed by communicating with different people from all over the world.
If such a person is made a teenager, some people say that he can do a major event business, and Donald believes it.
“May Divine-Blessed bless us, the Winter Ritual begins from now on!”
At the end of the speech, Claremont stood with open arms at the lit fire in the center of the altar In front of him, a dozen sturdy firewoods built a large bonfire behind him. When his palms turned upwards, the flames behind him trembled out of thin air as if they had been induced. The people were all shrouded in it.
A few fire stars drifted out from behind Claremont in all directions, like firefly in the dark night, passing through the crowd, but did not dissipate, but stayed among the people, or gathered into the size of a thumb of fire, or scattered into spots of light.
Donald can clearly feel that the temperature in the vicinity rises again, and soon there is a sense of warmth. On this winter night, for anyone present, this is a warm feeling. A comfortable thing.
So the crowd cheers one after another, they see this as the Divine Vestige, and are encouraged by its appearance, it is time to move the knife, fork, spoon and bowl.
There was a sound of clang clang, and the aroma of the food became stronger and stronger.
“How did he do it?”
Surprisingly, Anthony asked in surprise.
“It should be the Innate Ability he said before. I didn’t feel the slightest spell fluctuation, and I can be sure that he didn’t use spell.”
Only speaking of this skillful Fire Element control, to say he is a Fire Element wizard or a heretic is not an exaggeration, just don’t know how much he can do it.
And this is not the end, in the crowd who opened the gorge oneself, someone quickly set up a stage with a wooden plate with three glasses of wine, Claremont raised his glass, everyone stopped, His eyes refocused on him.
“God said, in the new year, the farmland will have a bumper harvest!”
Drinking the first glass of wine, the half-meter sticks on the beams and pillars at the door of the village Inner sect are known to grow The abundant wheat ears suddenly flew towards the platform, and began to dance around the entire platform, and the heavy ears of wheat also swayed in all directions.
“Harvest”
The crowd repeats the most crucial words.
“God said, in the new year, the house will be full of hunting!”
Drinking the second glass of wine, the animal skins nailed to the door of the village Inner sect There are blue light spots gushing out, turning into a thin soul illusory shadow, running and leaping over the heads of the crowd, stagnant above the fire, and shining brightly.
“Hunting”
Another echo.
“God said, the new year… is still happy!!!”
There is a short pause in the sentence, and there is a high-spirited ending at the end, which is positive and upward. Intentionally.
In this brief moment, the wheat ears on the platform were lifted into the sky, merged with those animal souls, turned into a humanoid phantom, shaped like a Claremont, and then scattered into dozens of lights Light up the sky and explode gorgeous fireworks…
“The happiness is still there”
The last sentence is four words, and the people got up one after another, Holding his glass high, he turned towards Claremont.
This glass of wine is, of course, a tribute to him.
“It’s great…I haven’t seen fireworks for a long time, and the Winter Celebration in Demingham didn’t catch up, didn’t expect to see it here.”
Stephanie looked at the fireworks in the sky, leaned left on Donald’s shoulder, rolled her eyes, and continued,
“Those people, how happy are you, Great Sage . ……It turns out to be a profession that can bring happiness to people.”
“Great Sage, does it bring happiness, it sounds really good, I hope it is…”
With a breath of white breath out of his mouth, Donald held Finger in his arms, who raised his head like him, glanced at Stephanie beside him, and whispered to himself,
“Donald, Claremont is gone.”
While several people were watching the fireworks, Anthony suddenly said.
came back to his senses looking at the building in the center, the old man has indeed disappeared.
“It’s really gone, he’s an old man, how can he walk so fast?”
Stephanie looked left and right, where could she still see Claremont’s silhouette.
“I now understand why Mr. Village Chief has been investigating for so long and has not found out where he went after the festival, and what the so-called dialogue with God means. This village has obviously become a It’s the home of the Great Sage Lord.”
Donald’s eyes glowed with red light, Spirit Vision turned on, and his sight passed through several houses and landed on the backs dozens of meters away.
The time their attention was diverted was only a few seconds. In this short period of time, they walked so far away from everyone’s sight. To say that there were no special means, Donald would not believe it.
With Spirit Vision, there is no problem with following naturally.
entire group hung so far behind Claremont, followed him out of the village and into the forest.
“Where the Great Sage is going, he said it himself, there is simply no so-called god of harvest and hunting, so a separate conversation with God should be a pretense, and he can do it in the church. Isn’t this a fake ceremony that doesn’t exist?”
Stephanie didn’t understand why he was leaving the village, which always seemed superfluous.
“He knew we were heretics, and even under such circumstances, he still chose to leave in this way, even if he had to risk being discovered by us, which undoubtedly meant what he had to do. , cannot be postponed, it must be completed after the Winter Ritual, … he should still be hiding some secrets.”
The mystery of this Great Sage seems to Donald to be irrelevant. few.
Following behind Claremont, and soon reached a hill in the south of the village, Donald went somewhere and raised his hand to stop everyone behind him, then pointed to park in the woods ahead of Claremont.
At a distance of 20 to 30 meters, Stephanie could hardly see the other person’s figure, Donald had to rely on Spirit Vision to see a silhouette, while Anthony used his own innate talent Manifesting binoculars for night vision.
“Come out, I’m here!”
Clermont shouted while standing on the edge of a tree that was significantly thicker than the surrounding trees, The voice is not small, at least the position of Donald can hear it clearly.
After waiting for a while, no one responded, and Claremont took out another wooden sculpture from his arms and held it up above his head.
“What he has in his hand seems to be his statue… I seem to have seen one at the front of the church prayer hall before. What is he doing here with this statue?”
Anthony, who could see some details, whispered.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the wood carving in Claremont’s hand glowing with color. Compared with the one he had picked up by the lake before, the wood carving in his hand was more than ten times brighter.
hu hu
Over the woodland, there was a dull sound of wind pressure.
Donald’s hands quickly formed a seal, and a layer of Formation wrapped all of them, covering their whereabouts.
“What is that?”
“What is that monster!”
Donald and Anthony said at the same time, with different words but the same meaning.
A nearly 3-meter-high monster, resembling an enlarged version of a crow, was standing in front of Claremont at this time.
The rich negative energy can be felt with no difficulty, but because of the distance, Donald can’t see the true face of the monster.
“This is the belief of the villagers this year. According to the agreement between us, I will give it to you. Please don’t curse those village names. They have no intention of occupying your territory and offending your existence. “
Claremont one-knee kneels on the ground, holding Divine Idol in both hands to the monster.
“Quack! quack!”
The strange and high-pitched sound sounds similar to the crow’s indeed has several points of.
“He seems to be angry!”
Although she couldn’t see it, Stephanie, who could sense it, leaned into Donald’s ear and said.
“Who?”
There can be two there.
“monster!”
“Gah!!!”
With another piercing scream, Divine Idol was slapped directly to the ground as the wings flapped. , claws on it, crushed!
