Chapter 33, Collusion between Rat Lord and Rat Priest

Contradiction A, these three divine cards of revelation have been used by Du Yuan.

Overnight, in a divine revelation that affected all ratmen, the concepts of spears, shields, and armor were also popularized.

Even the group of young ratmen who followed the ratmen troops hurriedly running in the forest had many rough spears made of wooden sticks and crude shields made of the bark of big trees in their hands.

There is also the wooden armor that is casually made up of two wooden boards connected by a rope.

This Wuyangyang group, no matter who comes, can be called an elite.

However, the young rat people were happy with it, following behind the rat army all day long, calling excitedly.

The young ratmen who have not yet experienced the selection and differentiation into the two groups of slave rats and ratmen warriors are the most active and unrestrained stage in the life of the ratmen.

Although this stage does not last long, when the change will occur depends on when the rat army they follow finds some suitable enemies.

Suddenly, amid sharp shouts, the march of the rat people stopped.

The commander, who was blind in one eye, took the lead in standing on the high ground. Behind him was a group of rat warriors who were neatly arrayed.

In fact, the things in the hands of this group of rat warriors were no better than those of the rat youths. They had rough wooden spears, low-quality and simple wooden armor, and bark shields in their hands.

It's just that compared to young rat men, most rat warriors have two spears, or some extreme and powerful rats have three spears.

Most of the Skaven warriors will master the skill of tail-wielding weapons in the temper of battle, and some Skaven with superb combat experience will even abandon their wooden shields and use three-wielding spears.

Moreover, the discipline of this group of rat warriors is much better than that of young rat warriors.

The noisy sound spread far from the front of the army to the end of the line from the young ratmen.

For the battle that was about to begin, these young ratmen were more fearless and excited, at least before the battle started.

Because in the past few months, the rat people have faced a favorable and stable growing environment. Well, maybe it is an excellent environment for the rat people.

After being born, after taking a bite of delicious and body-building blood mushrooms, rat pups spend the first two months of their lives in nursery caves carved out of the mountains.

From the state of being just a puppy when it was born, it will grow to almost one meter tall, comparable to the size of a large dog, and then it will be taken to the altar of the gods by the priests.

Here, they will hear the priests singing praises to the gods, eat the second blood mushroom in their lives, and feel the effects of the madness technique for the first time.

After this set of processes is completed, they will be led by the priest to chase the rat troops wandering in the forest looking for sacrifices and enemies.

With any luck, their first trial will begin soon.

Of course, even if it is such a quick success, the rat people are still members of an intelligent race. Their ancestors may have chosen a humble way of survival a long time ago due to various reasons.

But since they are an intelligent race, they are always favored by wisdom.

These young rat people are not stupid guys. In fact, compared to the body, the brains of the rat people are more perfect and faster.

In two months, the rat-man's brain can be fully developed and his intelligence can reach the average level. On the other hand, it will take a long time for the body to grow to the height of a standard rat-man, which is about 1.6 meters.

In fact, the ratmen are not too short. At least they are much taller than goblins, dwarves, and goblins. However, the hunched way of the ratmen makes their height appear in the eyes. reached the shortest gear.

The stopped rat army spread out and drove a large group of young rat men who were following behind to the front.

After passing through a sparse bush, a valley appeared in front of the rat people.

A messy camp was in the middle of the valley.

And this is what the Skaven army is looking for.

A large number of young rat men were being driven towards the camp in front of them.

This is the rite of passage they have to complete, to survive a war, or a massacre.

Yes, it was massacre. Even if they were favored by the gods, the rat people gradually began to become different.

But good eyes knew that if those running priests did not join the fight, the cowardly rats would still be rats.

The Rat Man is not that bold.

Wuyangyang's charge disturbed the owners in the camp, and a group of jackals wearing messy equipment and holding various bone weapons emerged from the camp.

He was confused by the group of rat men in front of him who were rushing towards him, and the anger that followed.

In the roar of one particularly tall jackal.

A group of jackals also rushed out in a hurry.

And fought with the group of rat men in front of him.

Soon, the two sides fought together, killing each other in the chaos.

There was no collapse at the first moment, and even under the leadership of a young ratman holding a spear, the chaotic battle continued.

Of course, this scene did not cause any fluctuation in the good eyes. In fact, the defeat was about to happen.

When the leading young rat-man was killed on the spot by the jackal leader, the rout began, and a large group of rat-men began to flee in all directions.

It was just the first battle, and the reality clearly told these young ratmen the real differences.

Without the presence of a priest, the word bloody battle will basically not appear in the ratman's choices.

In this scene, soon, the rat army behind the young rat man began to charge.

Compared with the poor performance of the young rat-men, the performance of these rat-men warriors was obviously much better. At least they already had some formations that an army should have.

There is also the vast number of people who have an absolute advantage.

Soon, these five thousand rat warriors completely overwhelmed the small gnoll tribe in front of them.

And completed the one-stop service of killing, looting, replenishing personnel, and capturing slaves, although most of the slaves captured were young fleeing ratmen.

Of the two thousand young rat men brought by the priest this time, only about a hundred will become rat warriors. In fact, this number should be a little higher, or it can be said to be much more.

But under the constant demands of the white rats for the number of slave rats, the rat priests who had no choice but to come to these rat lords who led the troops with red eyes.

The Skaven Lords once felt that if they could not satisfy these priests, they might not even mind tying themselves up to make up for it.

Without much hesitation, the Ratman Lord began to continuously drive the young Ratmen to attack some scattered tribes found in the forest, and then sent back those scattered tribes and the dead young Ratmen as sacrifices.

The young ratmen who survived were treated casually, and most of them were sent back to be slaves.

In this way, both indicators are completed, although the young ratman may suffer.

But young rat people have no rat rights.

Anyway, those red-eyed rat-man priests will continue to send young rat-men over.

So, driven by the demands of collecting sacrifices and more slave rats, the rat lords and rat priests smoothly decided to suffer the young rat people.
