"Really?"

Hearing Thor's words, his companions didn't care to say anything, and hurriedly gathered around to look at the letter in Thor's hand, and in the face of his companion's inquiry, Thor also shook his head in confusion. Even he, the oldest and most stable person in the entire team, feels as if the back of his head has suddenly been hit hard, and he can't tell the difference between east and west, north and south. But he barely took a deep breath of cold air, forced himself to calm down, and then looked at the letter in his hand.

"I don't know, but the seal on it looks like it's true, and he says he wants us to join his legion to fight for him, and in return, he'll allow us to have our own house in the Land of Atonement, and he'll promise us that we won't be persecuted there..............."

"Let me take a look."

Before Thor could finish speaking, a red-haired woman reached out and took the letter, and then a large group of people gathered around her, listening intently as the red-haired woman read the letter softly: "............... As lord of Parfield, I hereby invite you to come to my realm in the name of my lord, and I think we will have a pleasant cooperation if you wish. I need all of you as half-demonic to fight for me, and in return I will give you the right to live and live within the fortress of the Land of Atonement, and you will live within the Duchy of Moon as full, legal citizens. I can understand your thoughts, but I can assure you that you will not be treated unpleasantly in my realm..............."

The originally noisy and dilapidated hall gradually fell silent as the red-haired woman whispered to her, and the half-demons listened intently to her speech, and there was no sound in the entire church, only the cold wind howling and the red-haired woman's voice echoing in it. “…………… As a token, I enclose this badge. If you'd like to make it to the Atonement Lands Fortress, head to the Fish-Man Tavern on the Blackfin Coast, where I've prepared a carriage that will allow you to ride to the Atonement without any obstacles along the way. I look forward to seeing you there——— Lord Glenbel. Rod. Elant........."

Read the letter. The red-haired woman looked up at Thor. As if he understood what the red-haired woman meant, Thor picked up the envelope, and soon a badge that shone with a faint magical glow, like a four-pointed star, appeared in his hand. Thor looked at the badge in his hand with a complicated expression, and he didn't know what to say for a while. Soon, though, the others broke their silence.

"What to do? What do you guys think? ”

"Why does it sound like a trap, is that Glenbell Lord really so kind? We're half-demons! He took us in. Aren't you afraid of being held accountable by the church? ”

"I think it's weird too......... That lord isn't going to use us to sacrifice some mysterious and terrible ritual........."

"How is that possible? That's a lord, the lords of the Duchy of Moon are all recognized by the Grand Duke of Lydia, if they want to perform some evil rituals, how can the Grand Duke of Lydia not care? And since the other party is so sincere in invitation, we think it's okay for us to give it a try, right? ”

"But the place of atonement is not near, and it is winter again, and even if we set off now, it will take many days to get there. I've heard that it's a border area of the Duchy of Moon, so it's dangerous. ”

"You're such an idiot. I didn't read what the letter had already said very clearly, the lord needs our strength to fight, if it's not a dangerous place, why does he want us to go, so many troops under the lord, are they all eating dry food? It must be dangerous, that's why they want to accept us. Would you like to use your brain? ”

"I don't think there's anything to lose if we try, if the other party really invites us sincerely, then we can get out of this wandering life, right? Isn't that what we fled all the way from the Land of Light to here? There is such a great opportunity in front of us right now. I don't care what you guys think, I have to go anyway! ”

"What if it's a trap? Aren't you afraid of sheep falling into the mouth of a tiger? What's more, if the other party just wants to take advantage of us,"

"What does it matter? Anyway, no matter how bad it is, it won't be worse than now, it's a big deal, it's a death, and it's liberated. ”

“…………………”

Hearing this, many people fell silent. Indeed, as their companions say, how bad can they be? They have a powerful power inherited from the devil, but this power does not bring them any benefit, and their strange appearance makes them feared and banished wherever they go. Even buying food had to be sneaky like a thief, and ordinary people did not want to associate with them for fear of being seen as devilish believers. Even if it was old Carl, if he hadn't saved this kind and loyal old man from the hands of those cultists, I'm afraid he wouldn't be willing to help him.

But such kindness alone will not move forward, and they may be able to change the minds of one or two people, but not the minds of most people. It is precisely this that makes the members of the Demon Hunter feel tired, and they feel that they are fighting against a huge, invisible destiny, but no matter how hard they try, they cannot fight and overthrow. Along the way, they have been very tired, and some people have even begun to discuss simply leaving the realm of the dragon soul of light and going to the Night Dragon Country, although the Night Dragon Kingdom is not very friendly to humans, but after all, half of them are not humans.

It was in this predicament that this letter from the Land of Atonement suddenly stirred up a stir in the hearts of all the people, who did not know whether this was a request from heaven or a temptation from hell, and for a time everyone talked about it, but no one could convince anyone. Although each of them had been persecuted and had come together because of it, the reaction was completely different. Some people are fed up with continuing to live a miserable life of wandering and being banished, and are determined to gamble on a desperate gamble. But some fear that this is just a trap, another conspiracy to lure them in.

"Brother Thor, you can give me a letter."

Finally, after arguing for a long time, they still couldn't come to a conclusion, so they turned their eyes to Thor who was standing silently next to them. But just before Thor could speak, the red-haired woman standing next to him coughed, and only after attracting everyone's attention did she speak.

"Lord of Glennbell......... I've heard of him before, and he's the famous mercenary lord right now. ”

"That's ............... to say"

"Looks like it's him........."

Hearing the red-haired woman's words, everyone reacted. If the Lord of Glenbel was only a vague impression in their minds before, then the title of "Mercenary Lord" obviously immediately put these half-demon descendants in the right seat, although they had not been in the Duchy of Moon for a long time, but they had obviously heard of Rod's name. Especially among mercenaries, it is even more widespread, he led a mercenary group with insufficient numbers, and finally promoted to the mercenary guild, and even now he has become a noble lord. This is simply too "inspiring" for those mercenaries, and there are countless deeds and rumors about him, even these half-demon descendants in the demon hunting team who don't interact with people on weekdays have heard of this "mercenary lord".

Thinking of this, everyone felt that their mood began to become a little complicated, a mercenary-born lord could not be closer than a simple nobleman. But it is rumored that this lord is not a good-natured man at all, and he acts as a maverick, and has almost become an enemy of the whole people in the south. On the other hand, in the north, there are many people who praise this lord. But no matter which side of the rumors, there are very disturbing things in the evaluation of this "mercenary lord", at least, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a person with a good heart.

"I decided."

At this time, Thor, who had been silent, finally spoke, he raised his head, looked at his companion beside him, took a deep breath, and then spoke.

"Let us go to the land of atonement......... Whatever they want us to do, this is our only chance. ”

"But, Brother Thor, that person's reputation is not good........."

"It's because of the bad reviews that we're going."

"Huh?"

Hearing Saul's words, many people were stunned, and everyone said that it was normal to go if the wind was good. But for what reason, Sol did the opposite, doesn't he know that there are tigers in the mountains and prefer to go to the tiger mountains? Thor smiled bitterly at the questioning gazes of the crowd, and then he spread his hands.

"You see, even we all know that the lord's reputation is not good, and the lord himself must know this, and we are not idiots, so we will naturally be more wary of him after hearing these rumors. But he still extended an invitation to us, which shows that he did not come to help us out of some kind of compassion, but really wanted to use our strength. The letter has made it very clear that he needs the strength of us half-demons to fight for him, so it will definitely not be an easy battle. It's not a handout, it's a trade. I think it's fair that we contribute our part and that he gives us a place to stay. So, I decided to go to the Land of Atonement, which, by any means, at least, is the only chance for us right now. ”

Hearing Thor's words, everyone was silent for a moment, and finally they could only nod their heads in agreement, but ............... Still, some people are uneasy about this.

"I don't believe that much in the words of this lord, he says that we can understand that he welcomes us, but he says that he can guarantee that we will not be discriminated against in the land of atonement......... That's too much to say. ”

Although doubts are doubts, it is also clear to everyone that they have no way out now. (To be continued.) )
