Chapter 187, the Temporary Retreat of the Wolf Beastmen, the Devout Ordinary Believers
In the middle of the increasingly chaotic camp, Shu Zhan paused and stood calmly in the middle of the battlefield, without the slightest fear.
Surrounded by the silent Ferocious Knights.
The ratmen knights behind him had not arrived yet, and the number of Ferocious Knights was far from enough to crush the wolf orc knights gathered in the camp in front of him.
But Shu Zhan had no fear.
His scarlet eyes fell on the wolf orc camp in front of him, watching the vast number of wolf orc knights rushing towards him.
In the chaos, the fire was ignited in the camp at some point, and the Ferocious Knights surrounding Shu Zhan had already started a bloody and cruel fight with the wolf knights.
Some Ferocious Knights had already fallen in the surging attacks of the wolf knights, leaving behind the last sharp screams.
The death of the Ferocious Knight did not move Shu Zhan, until he found another target worth attacking.
A wolf orc general emerged.
With a hideous smile, Shu Zhan once again began to charge in this chaotic camp.
The quality of the wolf orcs is quite good. Even though they are surrounded by the aura of killing, they still have a certain degree of organizational ability.
The wolf orc general in charge of this camp raised the flag and wanted to reorganize the army to stop the chaos.
But this was not a wise decision. He was targeted by a dangerous and irritable guy.
The wolf orc general saw a scarlet light across the sky and instinctively dodged, saving his life.
But his mount was not so lucky. A white giant wolf with extraordinary elements was pierced through the body by the scarlet spear across the sky without any reaction. In the painful wail, the wolf knight general on it was also thrown off the giant wolf.
The giant wolf died in the wail.
The wolf knight commander rolled on the ground in a mess, accompanied by the sharp and piercing twisted laughter that was getting closer and closer.
He saw his spontaneously gathered guards fall like weeds, and also saw the attacker who threw the scarlet spear.
Staring into the pair of scarlet eyes.
Shu Zhan took down the black dragon flag behind him.
This was the flag blessed by the gods, the flag followed by countless ratmen, and a weapon for killing.
The largest and most ferocious giant rat knocked away the last layer of obstacles gathered around the wolf-beast general, and the wolf-beast knight who flew out interrupted the wolf-beast general's response. The scarlet and malicious red eyes and the high-raised black flag became the last picture the wolf-beast general saw.
Of course, he tried to fight with Shu Zhan, trying to resist the coming death, but it was obvious that he was not qualified to fight with Shu Zhan.
Pulling out the black dragon flag blessed by the great gods, the flag was stained with blood and fluttered in the night sky. The wolf-beast general knelt on the ground powerlessly, and he didn't even catch Shu Zhan's blow.
The troublesome guys in this camp have been killed by Shu Zhan. Now, no one can stop this killing.
The rat knights arrived at the right time to share the pressure for the ferocious knights who were being besieged by the wolf orc knights.
The wolf orc knights were naturally brave, but the scarlet killing aura enveloped the whole scene. Without the persuasion of the priests and generals, they attacked the enemies in front of them with red eyes in the anger that was enough to make them dizzy.
The enemies in front of them fell one by one, but their fate was also doomed after losing their minds.
The chaos in this wolf orc camp was noticed by other wolf orc camps, and they responded quickly. The first to arrive was the wolf orc king holding a golden flag.
A huge knight army appeared outside this chaotic camp.
At this time, the wolf orc king once again faced Rat Zhan from a distance. Rat Zhan's face was covered with a dazzling sarcasm, accompanied by the flames and chaos in the camp here, and he didn't care that he was now surrounded by a group of crazy wolf knights.
The wanton sarcasm and ridicule were raised towards the wolf orcs not far away.
If there is anyone among the wolf orcs who can fight against Shu Zhan, it is only the wolf orc king blessed by the gods.
But he can't change anything.
Shu Zhan not only brought the ferocious knights, but also brought the rat knights.
In the distance, the sound made by a larger army has reached here. It is a harsh noise, and it is the fragmented sound brought by countless rats running.
The sarcastic expression is more unscrupulous. The blood-stained black dragon flag is carried by Shu Zhan again, and the scarlet spear is pulled out from the body of the white wolf.
Suddenly, the sharp hissing in this camp suppressed the echo in the distance, causing the rat knights who arrived to start a crazy charge, trying to reach Shu Zhan's side. They want to join Shu Zhan and loyally guard their great commander.
They were quickly lost in the battle at a very fast speed.
More and more wolf knights arrived at this chaotic camp.
But the more this happened, the more unscrupulous the sarcasm on Shu Zhan's face became, and he was sure that these guys in front of him could not do anything to him.
It was not just sarcasm and ridicule. If you look closely, besides the sarcasm and ridicule on his face, Shu Zhan's eyes were full of greed.
His scarlet eyes could not be buried by the darkness, and his greedy gaze fell on everything in front of him.
A hairy guy, an expensive guy, a sacrifice to the gods, a sacrifice that demonstrates authority!
Such a gaze made the wolf orc king frown, and the longbow behind him was taken down, and the longbow was bent.
At this moment, Shu Zhan felt a great danger coming.
The wolf orc king is also a hero.
A fierce knight blocked the arrow for Shu Zhan, and the arrow almost penetrated the heavy armor of the fierce knight.
It did not stop the greed in Shu Zhan's eyes.
On the contrary, greed was accompanied by endless malice, and a sarcastic expression appeared with a hideous smile.
Shu Zhan raised a piece of material to the wolf orc king in the distance. It was a complete wolf orc leather material from the general who supported the wolf knight troops of the Four Seasons Ranch, and it was also his current cushion.
The greedy eyes were locked on the body of the wolf orc king, wandering wantonly, and the meaning was equally clear.
After all, the young wolf orc king was not as bad as Shu Zhan, and snorted coldly.
Turning around and leaving, the melee did not start, and the huge rat army had already appeared on the edge of the grassland.
Pairs of red eyes appeared in the darkness, running wildly on the vast grassland.
At this moment, Rat War burst into a wanton and sharp laugh.
The raid ended after the arrival of the endless rat warriors. The wolf orc king disappeared into the depths of the vast grassland with the remaining wolf knights.
Such a loss made the wolf orcs temporarily withdraw, and Rat War finally gathered enough sacrifices for the upcoming grand sacrifice.
At dawn, the battle ended and the battle in the camp stopped.
Rat War finally gathered enough sacrifices for the temple of the gods that was about to be completed.
This raid changed some things. The temporary fading of the wolf knights did not mean the end of the war. On the contrary, the war was about to enter another stage.
Not necessarily a good thing.
But that was obviously something to be taken into account later. Now, a grand sacrifice was about to begin.
Soon after, with the last stroke of the divine pillar falling in the cautious movement of the big claw priest, the temple of the god fell into the scarlet pit.
The grand sacrifice is about to begin!
Rat War stood in front of the temple of the great god. Limited by the materials and the position of the rat people at this time, even though the rat people never perfunctorily dealt with the affairs related to the gods, the temple of the god built in the scarlet pit still had a bit of simplicity.
It was almost fully open, but Du Yuan's authority among the rat people was never determined by the exquisiteness and magnificence of the temple.
The filled blood pool, the blood pool where corpses always floated, was the true embodiment of Du Yuan's authority.
Rat War, waving a flag, stood in front of the altar of the great god, climbed onto the high platform, cheered loudly, and in an instant, the enthusiasm spread to all the rat people who witnessed this scene at this time.
It was strange to say that the rat people had an absolute advantage, but in the war last night, the casualties of the rat people were still higher than those of the wolf orcs.
For many reasons, only a small number of rats could enter the battlefield. The quality of the wolf orcs was indeed better than that of the ordinary rats, and the killing aura that the rat war had always blessed made these guys too agitated.
However, the dead guys were obviously not cared by the rats.
At this moment, they shouted loudly and enthusiastically.
One by one, the wolf orcs were pushed onto the altar. In the depths of the grassland, of course, there were not as many exquisite and professional god sacrificial utensils as in the desolate mountains. Most of the executions of these wolf orcs were still carried out with the scimitars captured from the wolf orcs themselves.
The scimitars raised high cut off the heads of the wolf orcs one by one, no matter what expressions these guys showed on their faces when facing death.
Anger, fear, sadness, numbness, not many rats cared.
Being pushed onto the altar, being pushed onto the altar, all are sacrifices! All are sacrifices!
Fanatical cheers accompanied the last wolf orc captive being beheaded and thrown into the blood pool.
Standing in front of the altar, Rat War showed a wanton and intoxicated smile at this scene, and the black dragon flag was inserted beside him and fluttered.
How could he not be intoxicated!
This is the achievement, this is also the power, which is in his own hands.
How could he not be intoxicated!
The rats began to pray to the gods spontaneously, and at this moment, they shouted devoutly and enthusiastically.
"Great God! Great God!"
Regardless of their identities, all the rats who witnessed this scene shouted together, the big claw priests, rat warriors, rat priests, rat warriors, and even the slave rats would carefully raise their heads at this moment, tiptoe, eagerly and devoutly peeping at the stone pillar representing the gods.
"Great God! Great God!"
You can say that the rats' prayers are mixed with too many messy desires, but their piety is beyond doubt, even the rat caravans that have gone through untold hardships to get here will shout enthusiastically and excitedly at this moment.
Even if the goods they were looking for might have been thrown into the blood pool by Rat War, even if not being able to exchange for enough goods might lead to death.
Except for two guys.
In this pious cry, in this cry that even the slave rats spared no effort, there were only two guys.
Rat War standing in front of the altar of the gods and the flag hidden among the countless ratmen, looking at Rat War eagerly.
Qi returned on the last day before the blood sacrifice, with a rich harvest.
The wolf tribe guarding the salt lake was destroyed by him and his team of rat mercenaries, but the fruits of victory were almost monopolized by him.
He did not attack these rat mercenaries, but most of them were destroyed in the counterattack of the wolf.
This was not an easy war, but the troops in Qi's hands were unusually large, from the gathering of the remaining forces of the destroyed rat mercenaries.
Only the weakest rat mercenary was left with a full load of rich fruits.
Qi still needs the rat mercenaries, and the rat mercenaries will not remember so much. No one knows what happened on the vast grassland. They will only remember that a rat mercenary got the rich reward after following Qi back.
Qi has indeed grown a lot. He returned before the grand sacrifice. When he entered the scarlet pit, he was still wondering when the rows of big claw priests appeared on the roadside.
Rows of big-clawed priests were hanged high on the roadside. It was undoubtedly the work of Rat War, which made Qi more cautious until he stepped into the scarlet pit and witnessed the busy and lively moment of the rats.
This was the first time that Qi really witnessed the grand sacrifice dedicated to the gods.
Witnessing this grand and sacred scene, his attention was attracted by Rat War standing on the altar.
In this grand sacrifice, Qi understood for the first time what he wanted.
It was not a powerful rat army, nor was it that countless rats would show longing and fear when their names were mentioned.
Staring blankly at Rat War standing proudly in front of the altar of the gods, Rat War's position was only a little lower than the altar of the great gods, and the exquisite black dragon flag fluttered beside him.
That was the qualification to stand in front of the great gods.
This scene deeply attracted Qi's attention, so that he even missed the pious prayer dedicated to the gods, and it took a long time for him to come back to his senses in a trance.
At this time, everything has stopped, and Shu Zhan has left. The strange sight is on Qi.
But Qi deeply remembered the scene just now, which is a picture he will never forget.
Turned and left.
He is still far from what he expected, still far away.
This is why Qi remained silent in prayer, and was fascinated.
As for Shu Zhan?
Even though this guy has been blessed by Du Yuan and has the title of God's Gift, in terms of the level of faith, he is just a believer, not a fanatic, nor a shallow believer.
He is far from being as bad as his predecessor, Longspear Rat, who has been floating between shallow believers and non-believers for many years.
He is just a devout ordinary believer.
There will be another update later
