Chapter 419: An Unquiet Pool
Zumuran stood on the altar and looked at the kneeling people below, his face was very proud, the evil witch doctor enjoyed the feeling of others kneeling in front of him, but he didn't want to know if the object of the sandfury trolls in front of the altar was him, this guy was really narcissistic or that he was actually a paranoia.
Seka, who had become a half-undead being beside Zumulaun, was muttering reverently to himself, as if he was communicating with some kind of being, but in reality he was just talking to himself. For the sake of the gods he believed, his body made himself inhuman, not ghost, and even his spirit seemed to be in trouble, and Seka had become a complete fanatic, to put it mildly, a religious lunatic.
Of the three trolls presiding over the ceremony, only Priest Sexes was the more normal, who was leading the faithful to the altar and extolling the greatness of the gods. On the altar, several cages held the offerings that the Sandfury Trolls had made to the gods they worshipped - two humans, a man and a woman, a goblin, an orc, and a dwarf.
Seeing that it was time to sacrifice in the middle of the sky, Sethers gave an order to Neklum below, who immediately led his Sand Fury executioners to the altar to prepare the blood sacrifice.
"No, you can't do that!"
"You savage trolls."
"Oh my God, please, I'm willing to pay for my life."
Seeing a group of smiling trolls coming over, some of the sacrifices in the cage were angry, some were panicked, and the goblin even offered to redeem their lives with money, so that the goblins who regarded money as their life were willing to take out gold coins, it was a pity that the sand fury trolls did not pay attention to him.
Nekrum enjoyed the miserable and desperate gaze of the others, and he smiled at the caged sacrifice, a cruel, bloodthirsty smile.
"It is your honor to die for the great deity Shadra, alien." Ignoring the sacrifices' reactions, Necrum motioned to the Sandfury Executioner behind him, "Kill them all." ”
The Sandfury Executioner was about to step up to the bottom of the altar when he suddenly twitched, and the attention of the Sandfury Trolls, including Nekrum, was drawn to it.
A huge metal beetle of unknown origin suddenly broke into the Sandfury Troll's field of vision, and the troll of the large beetle froze for a moment, although Zulfarakri had never lacked such a creature because of Seka's bad taste, but it was the first time they had seen such a large beetle.
The Sandfury Trolls were stunned but the big beetle didn't, and the big bug let out a high-pitched hiss when it spotted the Sandfury Troll, which startled the Sandfury Trolls, who hadn't already spotted him. As the trolls turned their heads to find the source of the sound, rows of sharp thorns suddenly rose from beneath their feet, and the unsuspecting and kneeling Sand Rage Trolls died nearly two hundred under the attack of these thorns.
And that wasn't the end of it, but while the Sandfury Trolls were startled by the sudden appearance of the Spikes, the Spikes that had killed their fellow citizens burst open again, and three or four hundred Sandfury Trolls died as the rocks fell.
The beetle finally let out a smug snort, and the sand fury troll, who was in doubt, found the attacker.
"Kill this bug, it destroys the sacred ritual."
Stresses pointed to the metal beetle and said, the sandfury troll, who was still honestly kneeling in front of the altar, guessed ninety-nine points when he guessed the size, but ran into a guy who threw out a hundred points full of points to kill his own grievances, and killed the metal beetle with endless anger and murderous energy.
Seeing that the Sandfury Trolls were killing the metal beetles without showing weakness, I saw that its body shook, and the metal spikes shot like sharp arrows that shot dozens of Sandfury Trolls rushing to the front to the ground, and these unlucky trolls were trampled into pulp by their companions rushing from behind before they could scream.
Dozens more trolls were killed, and the metal beetle screamed defiantly, then turned and ran.
If we want to run away from destroying our sacred rituals, how can it be so cheap?
The enraged Sandfury Trolls went into hot pursuit, and they found that the beetle was not slow despite its heavy body, and that it was impossible for them to hunt down the bug without some effort. But even if it took a while, the Sandfury Trolls wouldn't give up, and who would let their sacred ritual be disturbed by it?
Destroy our sacrifice to the gods and never stop until we kill this worm.
With this in mind, the Sandfury trolls chased after them, and after they left, the altar that was still full of people was empty, except for Necrum and the Sandfury Executioner, who were watching the sacrifices, and the trolls including Sethers, Zumuran, and Sekka chased them out, and the entire altar was deserted.
There was such a big situation on the altar, and it was impossible for Ukez, who was close at hand, not to know that the King of Sand Fury did not pay attention to this matter, but instead caused the guards loyal to him to strengthen the defense of the palace, because he suspected that it was a conspiracy of the priests against him.
Hidden in the shadows, Leo and Wojin witnessed all this, and had an intuitive understanding of the battle between the Sand Rage Troll's kingship and divine power, and saw that the Sand Rage Troll at the altar was led to the sacred pool by Anubrekan as expected, and the two knew that the biggest obstacle to breaking into the Ukz Palace was gone.
"Do you want to kill it now?"
Woke asked Leo, who shook his head and motioned for him not to be in such a hurry, all they had to do now was wait until something happened to the Hallowed Pool, and the Sandfury Trolls were dragged there before they could do anything.
Unbeknownst to the Sandfury Trolls chasing Anubrekan, they had stepped into their opponent's trap, and when they were led by Anubrekan to the Sacred Pool, the large beetle suddenly burrowed into the ground and disappeared from the Sandfury Troll's sight.
The unwilling trolls chased after Anubrekan into the burrow, but before they could enter a large number of people, a violent explosion sounded, and the burrow drilled by the Crypt Demon Commander began to collapse in a huge tremor, and many of the Sandfury Trolls who had not had time to withdraw were buried alive underneath.
"This cunning bug! Seka, what the hell are you doing? ”
Zumuran looked at the collapsed cave and jumped to his feet in anger, it was because the big beetle was disturbing him that he could not enjoy the kneeling of tens of thousands of compatriots, and the evil sand fury witch doctor was very dissatisfied with Seka, you must know that the source of the beetle in Zulfarak is Seka, and now he is to blame for such a thing.
"It's none of my business."
Seka felt that he had been wronged, that he had just made some small beetles, and that he couldn't make such a big bug. Besides, what right does Zumuran have to ask him, how old is this guy?
"It's none of your business? You dare to say it's none of your business, who doesn't know that you love to mess with those disgusting little bugs when you're fine? Zumuran sneered, he had already seen that Seka was not pleasing to the eye, and the bugs that this guy had made were so fond of running around when he had nothing to do with them that he had to clean up Zurfarak's Hero's Cemetery every once in a while to prevent the corpses buried in it from being destroyed by these bugs.
"Disgusting?" Sekka looked disdainful, "Compared to the corpses you've been tinkering with, my beetle is much cuter. ”
The two leaders suddenly broke out in infighting, and the Sandfury Trolls were a little overwhelmed, but fortunately Sethus stepped forward, he separated the two companions who were about to perform a full martial arts, pointed to the sacred pool in front of him, and said, "You two fools, look ahead, don't you find anything strange?" ”
What's so strange about a sacred pool that can't even make waves, it's always been like this?
Sekka and Zumuran looked at Sethers with stupid eyes, and it was a shame that the Sandfury Priest was so angry that he was despised by these two fools.
"There's a sacred pool ahead, you know, so can you tell me where Veresa and her men are?"
Veressa?
That ugly woman who dared to throw her face at us just because she could communicate with Gazrila?
Sekka and Zumuran looked closely, and they saw that there was really no sign of Veresa near the sacred pool, only a strange kobold with a scepter standing at the other end of the pool, silently watching them.
"Grab that dog and ask, won't you?"
Zumuran said this to Sethers, and he motioned for his Sandfury Trolls to carry out his orders.
Dog?
Standing at the other end of the sacred pool was naturally the kobold land occupant Frintag, although Frintag's race had a dog character, he obviously did not consider himself to be the same kind of creature as those beasts with low intelligence, and Frintag was furious to hear Zumuran despise him so much.
How dare this damn troll treat such a dashing and strong kobold as me as a dog, and you won't know how good I am without giving you some color.
Flintag raised the scepter in his hand, and a powerful electric current emanated from the top of the scepter, and the sound of Ziz's electricity echoed over the sacred pool, and the calm and waveless pool rippled.
A thundercloud suddenly appeared in the sky, and a strong wind blew up, and Flintag shouted, "A thunderstorm is coming to Zulfarak!" ”
Bang! Bang! Bang! …… Hundreds of human-sized bolts of lightning slashed down, and the bright white lightning shook people's vision for a while, and the sudden bright light stimulated the sandfury trolls to temporarily fall into a state of blindness, and they had to close their eyes. Unbeknownst to the sand fury troll with his eyes closed, all the lightning had slammed into the sacred pool, and a powerful electric current broke the calm of the pool, and bubbles bubbled up in the calm and waveless pool, awakening a sleeping being in the pool.
Performing the thunderstorm spell, Flintag jumped backwards, and Hector took his head and carried it onto his body, and the bodies of both disappeared into the void in the miniature illusion of the dragon lich. When the thunderstorm had passed, the Sandfury Trolls reopened their eyes, and all that was left in front of them was a churning pool of water and the corpse of the water occupant Veresa.
