Chapter 671: Temple
After traveling for a few miles, they have already encountered many orcs, and all of these orcs are at least as powerful as wolf cavalry commanders.
Among them, Abel has seen tauren, tiger people, lion people, and bear people. These are the most powerful races in the orc empire, but there are also some powerful fox people who did not appear here.
And he also found that there was no priest here, and all the orcs were fighters. In his opinion, this should indicate that only fighters could participate in the Beast God Festival.
I just don't know the reason for this, but Abel still has some confidence in his combat strength.
All the orcs were silent, and they were all walking in the direction of Nanmu Mountain.
Abel couldn't help but wonder, isn't it ten days before the Beast God Ceremony will start? Why are there so many orcs already appearing now?
But he has no one to ask at this time, so he can only run forward with these orcs.
Ten miles away from Nanmu Mountain, a majestic building appeared in front of him. This is a beast temple, but this beast temple is the largest beast temple that Abel has seen since he entered the orc empire.
In the human world, everyone thinks that the orcs are not good at architecture, because the buildings of the orcs have always been practical, even the residences of the orc nobles are solid and simple.
But at this time, Abel changed his view. The Beast Temple in front of him was made of huge stones, consisting of a main hall, six auxiliary halls, and some houses with other purposes.
If it weren't for the temple and the city walls, it would basically be a city.
Every stone on the outer wall of the main hall of the beast god is engraved with legends about the beast god, which adds a lot of mysterious atmosphere to the main hall.
The roof of the main hall is a stone spire. With Abel's eyes, he can see the various rays of light reflected by the sun on the spire. Those are all kinds of gemstones, and the entire spire is inlaid with countless gemstones.
These gems bathe the main hall in a radiance of various colors, the most of which are green gems, these green gems form the main line, while gems of other colors are distributed around.
Perhaps the orc empire produced gems, but the energy in them could not be used by the priests, so these magic stones, which were regarded as treasures by wizards in the human world, only became the decoration of this temple in the orc empire.
Abel found that most of these magic stones were intermediate magic stones. The wealth on the spire of this huge main hall alone is enough to tempt any human being who sees it.
From the ground to the main hall, one needs to walk through hundreds of steps, and each step above the steps is shining in the sun due to years of friction.
This also shows the history of the main hall and how many orcs have come to worship.
At this time, more than a hundred orcs had gathered on the square in front of the main hall, and almost everyone of these orcs had a small tent, which made the huge square full of tents.
Although more than a hundred orcs gathered here, few of them made too much noise. It seemed that all the orcs were speaking in a low voice.
This is a very rare thing for an orc with a naturally loud voice.
A dozen orcs who came with Abel jumped off their mounts at the main hall, tied the mounts to the horse posts in front of the temple, and then took a little water from the mounts to wash their hands and faces carefully. Every orc They all cleaned up their appearance very carefully.
Abel felt a sense of piety. Orcs seldom pay attention to their grooming. You must know that most orcs don't like to wet their hair with water. They usually just wipe it with a cloth to clean it up.
And every orc in front of them is carefully cleaning themselves, it seems that the place they are going to is a place that is so sacred that they cannot bring any stains into it.
Abel also imitated their actions, tied the wolf to a horse stake, took some water from the water bag,
Clean up your werewolf appearance.
His attention was also carefully observing the orcs around him, because at this time he found that the so-called details he knew before were completely useless here.
The good thing is that he was lucky, he was able to meet this group of orcs who happened to be here when he came, and now as long as he follows these orcs and learns, there shouldn't be any major mistakes.
After cleaning up their grooming, the orcs walked up to the steps, took off their shoes, hung them around their waists, and stepped up the steps barefoot.
Abel also took off his shoes and hung them around his waist. He walked at the end of the orcs. He found that all the orcs were walking very slowly, stopping for a few seconds every time they took a step.
He was a little surprised what he was doing, but when he took a step, he immediately understood what was wrong with these orcs.
Because when he stepped on the second step, a wave of death energy came from under the steps. This wave of death energy was different from the ones he encountered before. This wave of death energy was an energy aimed at the impact of the soul. , it shocks the soul of the orc who steps up the steps.
Of course, this impact is only very small for Abel, because his soul is so powerful that it has surpassed most wizards. If he didn't control the same speed as other orcs, he could almost run straight to the steps quickly. top of the .
Exactly one hundred steps, and all the orcs had excited expressions on their faces when they got to the top.
And Abel also understood the function of this step. These hundred steps are not to attack the climber's soul, but a kind of assistance, assisting the climber to perform a baptism of the soul, which can strengthen the climber's soul to a certain extent.
Of course, this effect is not too strong, and according to Abel's estimation, this effect will become less and less with the number of climbing.
It's a pity that Abel's soul is so powerful that this support has no effect on him, but it should be a means of sacrifice.
Priests have more powerful means of playing with souls than wizards. Priests' research on souls is at an advanced level, while wizards are just getting started.
What are the benefits of strengthening the soul?
If the soul is strengthened, it will greatly promote the cultivation and promotion, making the effect of cultivation more obvious.
It's a pity, Abel thought in his heart, if the priests painted the application of this dead energy on the steps, they might be able to learn this kind of magic circle. Although this auxiliary magic circle is useless to him, it is beneficial to his Both knights and wizards in the family play a big role.
Of course, this kind of magic circle uses death energy. It would be useless for other wizards to get this kind of magic circle, but he can manipulate death energy.
"Take out your ID cards and register with me one by one!" A junior black-robed priest on the steps said in a deep voice.
The orcs took out their bone identification cards in an orderly manner, and handed them over to the black-robed priest for review, and the black-robed priest carefully inspected each orc, without the orc saying a word during the whole process.
Because there are very detailed information on the bone ID card, Abel knows that this seemingly ordinary ID card, if you don't have enough mental power, you can't know that there is still image information of the ID card owner.
Soon after arriving at Abel, he handed over the bone ID card to the black-robed priest, and the black-robed priest took the bone ID card and checked it.
"Why are there still werewolves from the wolf tribe? Haven't you already arrived?" the black-robed priest suddenly asked.
Abel was taken aback for a moment, but he still replied with a relaxed expression: "I was late in receiving the notice, and I didn't catch up with the other werewolves to come here!"
"Well, the tents of the wolf tribe are all on the right side of the square, you can find them there after you sign up!" the black-robed priest nodded with his head covered by the hood, and pointed softly.
However, as the head of the black-robed priest moved, Abel saw the face hidden in the darkness. It was a withered wolf face. It turned out that the black-robed priest was a werewolf priest.
Abel couldn't help but feel relieved, he thought something was wrong, it turned out that the werewolf priest cared about his kind.
"Thank you, sir!" Abel replied.
There was no problem with the ID card check, and the black-robed priest led the dozen orcs into the main hall together with Abel.
