Chapter 105: Change of Faith (1/2)

Meanwhile, the players were having a fun time at the festival as their heartless deity was plotting on ways to scam them.

When they woke up from their hangovers the next day, they realized that not only did they not obtain any substantial rewards from this trip to the village, and even used up all their food and all of their potions…

Even if they wanted to get compensation from the village, the village itself didn’t offer much in the way of rewards, and after obtaining drop items from the Barren Giant, the players naturally didn’t bat an eye at the wooden spoons and cups. Finally, they could only leave the village cursing as they did.

The old village elder didn’t understand the players’ cursing ability that had been maxed out without a teacher, and only knew that the players left the village merrily, and that they were definitely satisfied with the festival from the earlier night. Thinking back to his rice bucket that had gone empty, he teared up happily…

Jom and Terry were about to leave with their dog, but as soon as they got to the entrance of the village, they were surrounded by a few buff men.

Jom only looked at Joey who seemed to be leading them. “What is it? I don’t need an adoptive father.”

Joey scratched at the back of his head sheepishly before looking at the other villagers and turning back to Jom and Terry. “We’re going to leave this village.”

Terry who was munching on a biscuit asked in confusion, “Why do you guys want to leave the village? The Mountain Bandits have already been defeated you know.”

“We had been proud of our archery skills, and no one from the surrounding villagers were better than us, but we realized out weak we were when we were faced with the bandits…” Joey replied solemnly. “So we want to adventure together with you and become even stronger, so that we can protect the village in the future!”

“No, we’re not playing around!” Jom refused immediately. “It’s too dangerous for you lot to follow us.”

Honestly speaking, it was somewhat weird for such a sentence to be said from a teenager towards a middle-aged man, but the hunters didn’t think that this scene was strange at all.

They all saw the battles from the day before, and in front of the sheer, unimaginable strength of the Barren Giant, the players had still obtained the final victory. That confidence and morale that never wavered, and the flashy and eye-catching way in which they had fought gave these villagers culture shock.

Therefore, they wanted to become a member of the players, so that they could protect the village from ever being bullied.

The hunters all took out their hunting knives and slit their wrists at the same time.

This action made Jom frown—What were they doing? Were they all going to commit suicide after being refused? Or were they using this as a way to threaten them? Whichever way it was, wasn’t it too stupid?!

“From this day forth, we renounce ourselves from the Garden of Grains!”Joey shouted in Jom’s direction.
