I'm a druid in Type Moon

"The gods do not require human sacrifices."

Ruger looked at the young man in front of him, a hint of nostalgia flashing in his eyes.

"Gods don't even need human belief. God is Gaia's eldest son and the manager of the planet. Our power comes from the planet itself. Not to mention those outer gods from the universe, the gods born from the planet itself are perfect in a sense."

"How could such a powerful god need tribute from humans? What we really want is for humans to pay attention to us. We want humans to remember us, respect us, and love us."

"So the standard of sacrifice is not the sacrifice, but the intention contained in it and the identity of the priest. After we return to the inner sea of ​​​​the stars, we still need the right time and the right place, so that we can better contact each other."

"And you are a druid, a child of nature, a natural demigod. Even if your divinity is gone, you are still the highest priest."

Lin En was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then hesitantly said:

"I am a demigod? Is my father or mother a god?"

Lynn had long had doubts about his background. After all, Avalon was not a holy place that humans could enter. He appeared in Avalon when he was just born. If he was not stolen away by some naughty fairy, then his parents were not human.

Ruger was obviously stunned for a moment, and then said in a strange tone:

"Has all this knowledge been lost now? When I say Son of Nature, I mean it literally. You are a child of nature, a life born from the planet itself. Although you did not become a god due to the wrong time, you are also a natural demigod. In a sense, you should be considered our younger brother."

"The Druids refer to the Son of the Oak. Your body..."

At this moment, the natural consciousness that had just calmed down hit Luger, who was about to speak, at a speed faster than light. Even if he was just an incarnation, Luger was still the god king in Celtic mythology, but he was almost knocked off balance by this blow. It took him a long time to recover, and he raised his hand to rub his red face. He said helplessly:

"Although I miss this feeling, weren't you a little too harsh? Is this something that can't be discussed?"

Naturally, Ruger pretended to fight, but he quickly covered his face, smiled bitterly and shook his head:

"Okay! Okay! I know the time is almost up."

Then he stood up straight, looked at Lin En, and said softly:

"So, my child. What do you want? Do you want an invincible weapon? Then I will give you my sword, which is a gift given to me by the sea god. It will automatically fly to the enemy and kill them in anger, and then automatically fly back. At the same time, the scars caused by this sword cannot be healed."

"With him, your hands won't need to be stained with blood."

Lin En knew what he was talking about. The magic sword Vlaglak, the sword of revenge, the sword of answer. It was the best weapon for those who were eager for victory, but

"What the hell is that you don't have to get your hands stained with blood? Are you a germaphobe?"

Lin En complained in his heart, but this sword is indeed good news for people with mysophobia. But Lin En doesn't have this problem. Although many people think that druids are ranged characters, in fact, druids prefer melee combat, and magic is more of a supplement.

But this is actually Lin En's misunderstanding of Ruger. The sun god Ruger once invited druids to help him in the battle with his grandfather Baal. The druids here refer to the demigods in the forest. Among them, there are some druids who love cleanliness, probably because they have divinity related to water. They also like to use magic in fighting, instead of transforming into various mythical beasts like their fellow tribesmen.

The first time Luger saw Linn, he knew that Linn was born not long ago and was considered a cub among druids. In Luger's time, such cubs should be raised in the deepest part of the forest, beside the clean lake, and be looked after by the forest goddess herself.

Ruger was not wrong. In a sense, Lin En was indeed a cub, and one that had just been born. If Lin En was not a time traveler, had not met the old man who adopted him, and had not been taken out of Avalon by Merlin, then Lin En should have remained a cub and lived a carefree life under Artio's care.

Lin En was indeed somewhat tempted. This was the weapon of the God King! Even if he could not exert all his strength, he could still eliminate 99% of the dangers with it. Moreover, it had the ability to kill the enemy automatically, which meant that he did not need to be on guard at ordinary times and could rest assured. You know, in order to guard against the assassins sent by the king and the nobles, Lin En had thought of many ways.

But in the end, Lin En still shook his head and said:

"I ask you to grant this land a good harvest!"

Ruger said with some surprise:

"Pray for a good harvest? You can do this kind of thing when you grow up, but this may be your only chance to get my weapon. Are you sure?"

"yes, I'm sure!"

Lin En nodded. For Lin En, there were many opportunities to get weapons. At worst, he could ask Merlin to tailor a holy sword for him. Although it was not as good as the weapon of the God King, it was enough for his own use.

Seeing this, Luger did not ask any more questions. Instead, he pointed his hand at the ground and said in a majestic voice:

"Then, in the name of the God of Light, I grant this land a good harvest!"

The voice of the gods echoed inside the world, and the pillar of light that penetrated the sky and the earth shattered at this moment, turning into rain of light that spread across the entire territory.

Ruger's figure became somewhat illusory, as if it would disappear into the air in the next moment.

"It seems that the world's rejection of me has reached its limit. Unfortunately, although I can indirectly grant the earth a good harvest with the power of the sun, it is still not as easy as the God of Plenty and the God of Nature. It can only cover a small area nearby and cannot spread to the whole of Britain."

"Let me give you one last gift!"

The God King looked up at the nostalgic starry sky and imprinted this beautiful scene in his heart.

"Remember this scene. This will be the end of the mythological era. From now on, no gods will be able to walk on the earth!"

Ruger's figure shattered, turned into golden fragments and entered Lynn's brow, leaving a picture in his mind.

The full moon was high in the sky, the stars were twinkling, the Milky Way was flowing over the earth, and Lin En stood in the center of the forest, watching the rain of light spreading everywhere.

"What is this? A painting?"

Lynn felt the picture in his mind and didn't notice any changes.

Every time at this time, Lin En would envy his colleagues who had a system. They could accurately grasp every change in the body, and at least they would know what power they had gained.

"The only thing that is certain is that it can protect my soul and keep me from losing my original intention. But there are very few people with this ability in the Type-Moon world! It can do evil now, but that will be a thousand years later. For me now, it is equivalent to increasing my affinity for light!"

Lynn stretched out a finger, and a dazzling light appeared at this moment, illuminating the dim corner.

The small animals, frightened by the light, hurriedly retreated back into the shadows.

"Sorry! Did I scare you?"

Lin En immediately wanted to extinguish the light on his fingers, but his natural consciousness told him that there were other ways. So Lin En thought about it, and the sun's light began to soften. A silver halo flowed, and the moon's tenderness soothed all living things.

"So that's it. It's not the blessing of the sun, but the blessing of light?"

The light on Lynn's fingers flickered with his thoughts, as if the stars were rubbing their eyes, attracting the attention of the little animals.

Lin En squatted down and held the natural consciousness in his arms. The natural consciousness pretended to struggle for a few times, and then lay motionless in his arms.

The small animals felt the familiarity from Lin En and gathered around him, some boldly even wanting to reach out and touch him.

Even the animals hiding in the shadows were getting restless. After seeing Lin En hold the little animal in his arms, the rest of the animals came out from their hiding places and sat in a circle around the boulder.

Lynn sat in the center, with the oak staff still standing behind him.

It was as if he had returned to his childhood. In Avalon, Lin would sit against the oak tree and look at the fake sky. The fantasy beasts would feel the emptiness in his heart and lie down beside him, letting Lin touch their fur. The furry touch was really addictive.

"It's a pity that there's still a missing big bed, otherwise I would just sleep here tonight!"

It was a pity for Lin En. When she was in Avalon, she could occasionally sleep on a king-sized white bear bed. Although it was a pity that it was not black and white, it was also a happiness that most people could not enjoy.

The forest fell into silence at this moment. The sacrifice had ended and the moonlight was shining on the earth.

In the dark corner where the moonlight could not reach, the witch in black veil looked towards the center of the forest. The moonlight showed her preference clearly, and everyone could see the boy who still looked childish at first sight.

"This is much cuter than before!"

The witch spoke softly, then turned and disappeared into the shadows. She just came to see if Lin En was injured. After all, after such a big sacrifice, even the Archdruid would be exhausted, unlike Lin En who was not hurt at all.

The Nightmare Demon on the high tower also withdrew his gaze and said with some regret: "Even the blessing of the God King cannot make Britain return to the embrace of nature? It seems that we still have to defeat the humble king as soon as possible!"

The knights guarding the forest also received the message that the sacrifice was successful and their lord would rest in the forest for one night. So the knights quietly took out the tents they had prepared long ago, agreed on the order of the night watch and then began to rest.

Lynn also fell asleep amid the whispers of nature.

As Lin En fell asleep, the magic power gathered here dispersed again, and went to the whole of Britain equally. The True Ether, which was originally distributed unbalanced along the border, returned to its original state. This disrupted the plans of many people.

.............

The next day, when the sun jumped out of the horizon, the warm feeling woke Lynn up.

Lynn stood up and took a breath of the fresh morning air, feeling her body quickly regaining energy.

"Is this also the effect of blessing?!"

Lin En sighed. Although it was not obvious, it was at least a good alarm clock. It was still very useful for a sleepyhead like Lin En.

Lin En looked around and found that the animals from last night had already left quietly. After all, many of them were at the upper and lower levels of the food chain. It was okay when Lin En was suppressing them, but over time, they would easily be sacrificed.

Lin En stretched his limbs. Sleeping on the stone slabs was not very comfortable. Then Lin En pulled out the oak stick that was still standing there. The nine leaves on the top became greener.

Lin En sensed the magic power stored in it. He had borrowed a lot of true ether from it in the past few years. And in the magic storm last night, the true ether stored in the oak staff was filled up again.

"Yes, it is also an additional gain."

Lynn nodded and set out on the journey back home.

Surrounded by knights, Lin returned to the castle and announced to everyone the good news of the successful sacrifice. With Ivan's promotion, the news quickly spread throughout the territory, and all the civilians praised the lord's kindness.

The beliefs that had been somewhat dormant were once again brought up among the people, including Lugur, the god of light, Dagda, the god of fertility and creation, and Cernunnos, the god of nature. Celtic mythology has not been completely forgotten.

This also made the missionaries who came here worried, and finally, their leader, the Archbishop of Canterbury, decided to visit the pagan leader.

At this time, Lin En had already returned to work. Ruger's blessing not only ensured a good harvest, but also brought the harvest time forward by a week. In other words, in the next few days, Lin En needed to arrange for more knights and soldiers to patrol the border, and also let the soldiers go home in turn. The soldiers were all young laborers in their respective families, and some were the backbone of their families. Without their return, the speed of civilians harvesting grain would be greatly reduced.

"We still need to find a way to build a more complete defense system!"

Lynn put down the quill in his hand, handed the parchment to Ivan beside him, and asked him to give it to the leader of the Knights Templar. On it was the patrol route for tonight.

In order to ensure that the autumn harvest would not be disturbed, Lin En summoned birds from the nearby forest to patrol the border. Due to Lin En's limited mental power, he could not guarantee that he could see every place, so he only checked some less important areas. The Knights sent people to guard the key points that were most likely to be breached.

"I hope nothing goes wrong!"

Lin En prayed in his heart. The noise of this sacrifice was really too loud. The enemy must have known Lin En's plan. After all, they would try every means to sneak in and destroy the autumn harvest. If necessary, they might launch a general attack.

The End of the Age of Gods: Chapter 64: War on the Border

The war begins again!

No, it should be said that the war has never ended!

With the start of the first encounter, the war between Camelot and the Beastial King began again after more than ten years of confrontation.

On the long border, a patrol team consisting of several knights and a small group of soldiers are chasing the flying birds leading the way. They are the natural allies summoned by their lord and now serve as messengers between teams.

The bird suddenly chirped, and then landed in the crown of a tree. The knight understood, put his lance under his armpit, and then shouted;

"Charge for our lord!"

The horses began to charge at the urging of the knights, and several knights naturally formed a cone in the process, becoming the sharpest arrows in the entire queue. The soldiers kept a distance from them and raised their spears.

At the same time, a group of enemy soldiers a hundred meters away also heard the shouting. This was a group of knights responsible for the ambush mission. In order to ensure the marching speed, the entire team consisted of several well-trained knights and a small group of cavalry. Except for a few knights, the cavalry rode old war horses and did not wear armor. It was obviously due to insufficient supplies.

The moment the leading knight heard the shout, he knew he was being intercepted and immediately wanted to order the entire army to charge. However, the improvised cavalry was not as calm as the knights and began to panic when they heard the shout.

In this era, organized cavalry had not yet appeared, and war horses were exclusive to knights. These cavalrymen were just ordinary soldiers a few months ago, and after only a few months of short training, they could only be regarded as mounted infantry.

At the moment of the attack, these cavalrymen began to panic, and some of their horses did not obey commands. Some wanted to move forward, some stood still, and some directly began to retreat.

The knights' formation was disrupted, and they were unable to regroup immediately. The leading knight immediately broke away and shouted:

"Charge for the King!"

After hearing the captain's shout, the knights immediately abandoned the cavalry in chaos, pulled the reins to urge their horses to follow the leading knight.

But it was too late. Even if the knight captain's reaction speed was fast, the chaos still slowed them down. By the time they charged, the knights on Lin En's side had appeared not far away, and their speed was close to their peak.

For knights, speed is power, and they can only play their due role when charging. When both sides have similar equipment, the one who charges first will inevitably gain more advantages.

So, a few seconds later, the two sides collided in the middle of the road and then passed each other. Since the knights on Lin En's side were faster and had more time to prepare, only one knight was hit by the lance and fell off his horse. The knights on the side of the humble king were not so lucky. Except for the knight captain who was leading the knights, all the other knights were hit by the lances. The huge force directly knocked them away and they fell far away, their lives unknown.

The two sides passed each other, and the knights on the side of the humble king saw the phalanx of spearmen waiting in battle formation. After the previous charge, the knight captain had no hope of victory and just wanted to break through the blockade and return to his own country. So he squeezed his horse's belly and urged his horse to charge again.

What the knights on Lynn's side saw was the cavalry in chaos. After hearing the knights' shouts, their fallen horses became panic-stricken, and some even wanted to throw off the cavalry on their backs.

The cavalry who couldn't even control their horses had no right to surrender. The leading knight drew the long sword from his waist and used the force of the charge to swing it hard at a soldier's head. The horse rushed past and the headless body fell to the ground.

After a not-so-standard charge, the knights tightened the reins to slow down the horses until they stopped. Looking back, the frightened cavalrymen dropped their weapons and used both hands to control the horses under their crotch to prevent them from running away.

Seeing this, the knights also put down their bows and arrows. If anyone tried to escape just now, they would face their sniper attacks. You know, archery is also a compulsory course for knights.

The captain of the knights left a few knights to guard the prisoners, and returned with the remaining three knights.

Not long after they walked, the knights saw the knight who had escaped from their guns, who belonged to the humble king's side, had been forced off his horse by the spearmen. Without the blessing of a charge and without the horse wearing heavy armor, the knight was surrounded alone.

If he had the inhuman strength of the Knights of the Round Table, or martial arts that could enter the realm of God, then this knight would have a chance to escape. But unfortunately, although this knight was considered to be one of the better ordinary people, he ultimately did not reach the realm of the extraordinary. After killing several soldiers with the remaining strength of the charge, he was captured.

Seeing several knights from Lin En's side approaching, the knight pushed away the spears pointed at him with his hands and shouted:

"I hereby declare my surrender! I have noble status! I demand prisoner treatment that is consistent with my status!"

The knight captain looked at the fine armor he was wearing, the sword at his waist that had not yet been unsheathed, and finally stopped at the noble emblem on the armor.

He nodded and said to the knight, "We accept your surrender! Your disposition will be decided by my lord!"

The knight breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he could survive. He handed the sword at his waist to the knight captain and asked in a low voice: "Who is your lord?"

The knight captain took the sword, pulled out a piece of it, looked at it, nodded with satisfaction, and then said to him:

"Our lord is King Arthur's good friend, the best friend of the great sage Merlin, and the benevolent Archdruid Lynn."

Similar battles occurred along the entire border. Both sides tacitly chose to fight with small forces, one relying on numerical superiority to harass, the other relying on natural alliances to conduct reconnaissance. The knights and soldiers served as their pawns, fighting on the border.
