Chapter 76, Calm and Peaceful (Monthly Ticket Plus 513)

In the increasingly violent attack, the temple guards were gradually suppressed.

But the frenzy could not be maintained for long.

The ratman temple guards withstood this round of violent attacks.

Obviously, after the frenzy ended, the exhausted ratman assassins could no longer fight the temple guards.

The victory of the two sides was concentrated on their leaders.

The captain of the temple guards and the leader of the ratman assassins faced each other.

Their men all made way for the fight between the two.

In the fierce fight, neither side could do anything to the other for a while.

Only at an opportunity, a team of three temple guards approaching the two sides abandoned the ratman assassins who were fighting with them, and suddenly attacked the ratman assassin leader who was forced to the stone wall.

This action caused the rat assassins who were fighting with them to roar sharply, and they rushed towards the guys who had withdrawn and attacked fiercely.

Under the interception of the angry rat assassin, the three temple assassins who suddenly attacked fell to the ground without a breath.

But obviously, this was not the killing move of the captain of the temple guard.

He did not save the men who fell in front of him, but hid behind them, with a sharp point blocked by the fallen temple guards, and suddenly attacked the rat leader.

The hideous malice on his face was not concealed, and the wooden spear in his hand was about to pierce the rat leader's chest in the sneak attack.

But he did not see the panic on the rat leader's face.

The red eyes were still so calm.

The leader of the rat assassins was not as violent as his men in the battle.

A pitch-black dark blade was raised high and met the spear that the captain of the temple guard was attacking with all his strength.

Under the influence of the huge force, his right arm twisted and drooped, and the dark blade in his hand flew out, and the whole person hit the stone wall of the tunnel behind him.

But at this time, another pitch-black dark blade appeared, just like the action of killing the senior rat priest.

It passed through the neck like a butterfly flying through flowers, with a different kind of elegance.

The captain of the temple guard stared unwillingly, holding the short spear in his hand tightly, which was only half left and the tip of the spear was completely broken.

His lips moved as if he wanted to say something, and his expression was extremely ferocious, but he didn't say anything.

He fell heavily.

The captain of the temple guard, who had fought against the rat war, fell down very aggrievedly, and fell into the broken spear in his hand.

Soon after, there were many more corpses in the team of rat priests who were being led for public display.

The team leader who died with his eyes open, and the senior rat priest who shouted loudly and made generous promises, all became part of the bodies being dragged.

………….

In the lush forest.

In order to consolidate their rule over this huge forest, the rats also wanted to capture a large number of slaves for sacrifice.

Outposts rooted in the forest and rat nests hidden in the mounds and rocks were built one by one, and the resources in the forest were collected in a targeted manner.

Trees, berries, animals, and the most important sacrifice.

At the beginning, the forest became empty due to the large-scale sweep and slave hunting by the rat warlords, and the rest of the races fled. This made the rat priests who took over later worried.

In order to obtain the sacrifices that could be used for sacrifice for a long time, he moved the activities of the rats in the forest underground or to a fixed location.

The outposts are used to collect wood, materials needed for making spears and building dungeons, as well as berries and animals that the rat priests have certain needs for.

As for the rat nests hidden underground, they are used to monitor the intelligent races that gradually return because the forest has returned to peace.

The vast forest that has become empty after being swept by the rat warlords and has screened out dangerous races has become more suitable for the survival of weak races.

But what they don’t know is that their every move is being observed by the rats with insidious eyes.

Whenever the number of these races grows to a certain scale.

The rat priests who receive the news will lead the army of slave rats out of the rat outpost in the Desolate Mountains and attack the tribes that have reached the standard.

Then the gathering place is destroyed. Except for some members who escape to continue their inheritance in this forest, most of the guys will be captured and taken away by the rat priests, and the forest will return to silence again.

As for the guys who were taken away, there was no need to guess what would happen to them. They either became sacrifices or became slaves first and then sacrifices.

This cycle continued.

In this way, this vast hunting ground became an important asset of the Rat Kingdom. Even though most of the rats lived in the barren mountains, the rat cities were also built in them.

However, the production of blood mushrooms, which is crucial to the rats, is maintained in this forest hunting ground.

With the expansion of the territory, even if the rats mobilized the army for a large-scale expedition, the benefits they actually gained were not only to please the gods and provide merits for those rat priests who were crazy about competing for piety.

Other benefits seemed unremarkable. If they went too far, not only could the corpses obtained in the war not be transported back for sacrifice, but would rot during transportation, even the captives obtained would be difficult to bring back.

And they had to continuously deliver blood mushrooms to the expeditionary forces.

Even though the blood pool was getting bigger and bigger with the continuous offerings of sacrifices, the lake water in it was getting brighter and brighter, and the blood mushrooms produced were also increasing.

But it was gradually pulled down by the growing number of rats in the rat kingdom.

The blood mushrooms were no longer enough.

In fact, this problem was not so serious at first, but with a large number of blood mushrooms gathering in the hands of some rat priests, both the most precious pure blood mushrooms and the inferior blood mushrooms with only a little red color gradually became scarce.

Although this shortage has not yet affected the more noble normal priests and rat warlords, some rat priests have begun to propose to cancel the blood mushrooms supplied to the rat newborns.

This group of poor little guys originally had an increase in the number of births. It has long been from one inferior blood mushroom for each rat newborn, to a mouthful of blood mushroom, and now a pot of blood mushroom soup for a breeding room.

In this situation where there is nothing to save, even the last bit of soup with flavor is almost gone.

In this situation, the importance of this vast forest hunting ground is self-evident. This is the food and clothing of countless rats in the rat kingdom!

But today, some changes have occurred in this important hunting ground.

On the western edge of the vast forest, some rat outposts that collect resources quickly died in a very short time.

It was done by a group of shiny guys.

Apparently, this was the action of Du Yuan's not very friendly neighbor.
