#136 - Chapter 22: The Son of the Killing Forest (Part 3)

Not far away, a figure appeared, it was the leader of the Children of the Forest. He held a knife in his left hand and a spear in his right, approached Liu Yuan, crossed his weapons, and bowed: "Mighty human warrior, forgive our previous offense, and stop here! You have already killed eight of our people. As long as you leave this place, we will not pursue the matter further."

His voice was sharp and high-pitched, and he spoke in the ancient language.

Liu Yuan said disdainfully: "So, you're suing for peace now? Weren't you quite tough when you surrounded me earlier? I still prefer your unruly appearance. Look, your reinforcements have arrived."

He pointed to the dense forest, where rustling footsteps could be heard.

Soon, many people appeared, real people in the true sense. There were fifteen people, holding short swords and axes, their attire similar to the previous two brothers.

When they saw the remains of the Children of the Forest at Liu Yuan's feet, their expressions changed, and they all raised their weapons at Liu Yuan.

The leader, a burly man with a gloomy face, said: "Who are you? Where are my two men!" His name was Ru'er, and he was an elder of the 'Green Men' organization. He had been eating dinner when the Children of the Forest said they had discovered an outsider and needed them to deal with it.

So, he sent the Wright brothers to check it out, thinking that if they were just villagers who had strayed in, they could just let them escape.

But before long, he received a signal from his men, and it was the highest level of danger. When he arrived, he found that the situation was worse than he had imagined. Some Children of the Forest were dead, and in a cruel way, cut in half.

The young man in front of him gave him a very dangerous feeling. He had been out for many years and knew very well that some young knights were very strong, strong enough to kill dozens of people alone.

Liu Yuan also sized them up with interest. Judging from their race, they were of northern descent, but their clothing had a distinct Riverlands style.

Seeing that the big man didn't attack immediately, he answered him: "You're talking about those twins, right? In the woods near the shore, one had his thigh pierced by a wooden spear of the Children of the Forest, and the other fainted after hitting his head on a tree."

Hearing Liu Yuan's words, the corners of Ru'er's mouth twitched. No one would believe that they had accidents themselves. He asked: "Then why did you kill the Children of the Forest? This will have serious consequences."

He pointed to the remains of the Children of the Forest on the ground.

Liu Yuan said innocently: "They attacked first, I was just defending myself. What consequences could there be? Just kill them all. I've answered your question, now is it your turn to answer? Who are you people?"

Ru'er hesitated for a moment and said: "We are the sacred 'Green Men' organization, founded at the end of the Dawn Age, and have a history of nearly ten thousand years. Our mission is to guard this sworn land of Thousand Faces Isle and uphold the faith of the Old Gods."

Liu Yuan suddenly understood: "I once saw a record that during the Age of Heroes, the heyday of the First Men, countless small kingdoms rose and fell in the Riverlands. Near the God's Eye Lake, there was a force led by the Green Man King, who should be your Green Men leader, right? I always just listened to it as a story."

Ru'er nodded: "Then, can the knight lord please leave? I can see that your identity is not simple, but we don't want to cause trouble. But you killed the Children of the Forest, and they won't let you go easily."

The 'Green Men' organization was not a gang of thugs. Most of its members were farmers and hunters from the surrounding territories and would not kill to silence people like bandits.

Liu Yuan smiled, he pointed to the Children of the Forest who had just arrived: "If I were to fight them, would you interfere?"

The Child of the Forest just now, seeing these humans speaking a common language he didn't understand, questioned in the ancient language: "Ru'er, what are you doing? He killed the noble Children of the Forest, quickly arrest him."

Ru'er glanced at him: "Gray Vine, we are just allies, not subordinates of the Children of the Forest. Without the order of the Green Seer, you have no right to order me."

He also saw the Children of the Forest coming from behind and continued: "Solve the troubles you caused yourself! We 'Green Men' will not interfere."

After speaking, he took his people aside, it seemed he really didn't plan to interfere.

Liu Yuan looked at them with a smile, their relationship was more complicated than he had imagined. This time, more than twenty Children of the Forest came, all holding weapons and looking at Liu Yuan angrily.

Liu Yuan drew his long sword and took a fighting stance, he didn't care about killing all these Children of the Forest. His purpose was just to lure out that Green Seer. If there were no clues here, the expedition beyond the Wall had already begun, and he didn't believe he couldn't find it beyond the Wall.

Suddenly, a large flock of crows flew over, cawing at Liu Yuan: "Caw caw caw ~ Caw caw caw ~".

The calls seemed to have a special magic, Liu Yuan seemed to see a huge crow phantom, with three eyes staring at him.

The noise made his head swell, and his eyes blurred.

At this moment, a green-skinned Child of the Forest picked up a slingshot and shot a stone at Liu Yuan.

The phantom of the three-eyed crow dissipated, and a hand steadily caught the flying stone. Liu Yuan's strong mental power shattered the illusion, as well as the mental impact jointly released by several Children of the Forest wise men.

The 'Green Men' were shocked and quickly looked for places to hide. Liu Yuan didn't have time to say a few words of ridicule before he realized something was wrong. The stone in his hand actually released a blue light. "Crap!"

"Boom!" A violent explosion sounded, accompanied by a burst of flames, instantly engulfing a range of five meters in diameter. A charred figure was blown more than ten meters away and fell heavily into the grass.

Ru'er's mood at this time was as if he had been screwed by a dog. This group of green skins actually used blast beads. That thing was worth at least two gold dragons, enough for all of them for a month's food.

Gray Vine and the newly arrived Children of the Forest communicated in the original language. The green-skinned wise man who had used the trick to knock down Liu Yuan set his sights on the forest not far away. He didn't expect this human to be so strong. Although the Children of the Forest were not tall, their bones and muscle density were very strong.

The strength they possessed was not small, with average attributes above 30 points. Their mental strength was also ridiculously strong. The mental impact jointly released by the eight wise men just now couldn't do anything to him.

"Cough cough, cough... Damn dwarves, they actually ambushed me. This suit is very expensive!" Liu Yuan climbed up from the ground, the left half of his clothes were burnt, and the fragments fell straight down as he moved.

Having been in this world for so many years, it was the first time he had encountered this thing. The lethality was mainly the flames produced after the explosion, the power was comparable to the Japanese Type 91 grenade.
