Chapter 139, the old white rat, the saint, and the free blade.

Chapter 139, the old white rat, the saint, and the free blade.

Kneel before this vague idol.

Life has come to an end.

But faith has already crossed that hurdle.

The old priest was already a saint.

It's not easy.

In the entire Skaven Kingdom, there are so many Skaven Priests, in these years.

He crossed this threshold alone and became a saint.

Looking at the huge rat-man statue in front of him, this statue condensed his pursuit for most of his life and was born out of arrogance and panic.

It is indeed not a god.

But in the blur, the old priest saw the god from this statue.

The god that I have been chasing for half my life.

He stretched out his arms, wanting to touch the huge rat-man statue with a blurry face in front of him.

But in the midst of great sorrow and joy, life finally came to an end.

In that whimper, his eyes widened.

Towards death.

The death of the old priest was not peaceful. He still had too many things to let go of.

But death is near.

he died.

Du Yuan's first saint, the first saint born in the Ratman Kingdom, died on the day of his birth.

A hazy golden light appeared from the body of the dead old priest.

This alarmed the young rat-man priests in the temple.

In that cry of disbelief.

Soon this news was sent to the ears of other senior rat priests at the outpost.

The rat priests who regarded the small temple as a hot potato gathered in the small temple for this reason.

They looked at the corpse of the old priest who was kneeling on the altar of the god.

Big eyes stare at small eyes.

Obviously, no one expected this to happen.

But the golden light on the old priest's corpse cannot be faked.

This must have something to do with that great god.

Looking at the brilliance on the old priest's corpse, he also looked at the blood mushrooms that were gradually sprouting in the blood pool.

Suddenly, as their eyes moved, some priests had an idea.

They all knelt down and bowed down.

Towards the corpse of the old priest.

Also towards the blood mushroom in the blood pool.

After possessing the body of the old priest, some key things were gathered in this small temple.

Blood mushrooms also have the gift of the gods.

Well, there is actually one gift from the gods in the small temple, the statue of the rat man turned into crystal, but the statue is dim and turbid with only a faint aura of the gods.

How could it be compared to the old priest who died in the small temple with a hazy golden light in front of him!

You must know that the temple in the underground rat city only has these two things.

The blood pool, and the divine pillar as a gift from the gods.

And all of these are available in the small temple at this time!

Some thoughts that they didn't dare to have appeared, and they appeared in the hearts of these rat priests instantly and out of control.

Can we remove that small word from the small temple and make this small temple in this outpost a real temple.

Then they can become real temple priests in one fell swoop.

What about the Ratman Temple priest at the outpost!

This idea soon sprouted and was confirmed by the mutual glances among the rat priests.

why not?

The fire of ambition was ignited and began to burn brightly.

But achieving this is not easy.

Because compared to mastering the production of blood mushrooms.

The appearance of another group of temple priests is undoubtedly more rebellious.

Disobedient to the existence that stood above the rat kingdom and watched everything coldly.

Disobedient to the rat-man high priest, White Rat.

But it is obvious that under that hopeful vision, all risks have been thrown away.

If these abandoned guys can turn around one day, if one day they can become the high priests of the temple.

To do this, they are willing to do whatever it takes.

While looking at each other, all the senior rat priests present saw the madness on the face of the guy opposite.

Everything in the outpost was mobilized.

A large number of slave rats were driven to the outskirts of the outpost, blocking all underground tunnels leading to the underground rat city.

Slave-catching teams were dispatched to every main road in the underground city.

In order to ensure that everything is foolproof, and also to ensure that the temple priest group in the small temple is successfully established.

They concealed the news that the old priest had received a gift from God.

They did not know the existence of saints, they just thought that the old priests were given by God.

The vague statue that had entrusted the old priest with his faith, madness, pursuit, and regret for most of his life was pushed to the corner of the temple by these crazy priests.

On the contrary, they placed the dead old priest in the position where the statue originally stood.

to be worshiped.

A grand sacrifice is about to begin. No matter whether the sacrifice goes smoothly or not, whether it can get the attention of the gods or not.

After the sacrifice is over, the news of the god's blessing in the small temple will be publicized.

The dimly glowing corpse of the old priest will serve as evidence.

They will also become witnesses of the divine gift. In that supreme glory, they will announce the establishment of a new priesthood and officially inaugurate the temple priests.

When all is said and done.

Even if they died on the spot, they died as temple priests.

In a sense, the Skaven priests of these outposts were plotting a grand rebellion.

But they were not betraying the great god.

Instead, they declared rebellion against the temple priests of the underground rat city and the newly established rat council.

And this is a rebellion that is very likely to succeed.

Although the outpost is far less prosperous than the underground rat city, the priests here are also ridiculed by the priests of the underground rat city.

But what they have to do is not to start a protracted war with the rat council in the underground rat city.

They just need to buy themselves some time.

Complete the grand sacrifice and successfully form another temple priest group.

They just need to hold on until everything is settled.

At this time, if they take the initiative to serve, as the temple priest group that is also watched by the gods, even if they are white rats, they can only pinch their noses and accept it.

As for the blow to the prestige of the rat council and the turmoil caused, sorry, this is something that the real rat council needs to consider.

It is not something that our outpost temple priest group needs to consider.

But is it really that easy?

………….

In the underground rat city.

In the excavated underground cave.

White Rat sat upright.

A tall rat assassin stood in the darkness beside him.

Indistinctly, he seemed to blend into the darkness.

A blood mushroom that had already wilted a little was placed in front of White Rat.

White Rat's knuckles tapped the table.

This was the first blood mushroom that sprouted in the outpost.

But at this time, it was placed in front of White Rat.

Just a glance, in that brief thought.

Abnormally, White Rat did not make a decision on the spot.

Instead, he threw the question to the tall rat assassin hidden in the darkness.

"You deal with it, but don't damage the temple of the gods." White Rat did not treat the small temple as a joke like most rat priests.

Because of this, the crystal statue stained with the breath of the gods was sent to the small temple by him.

Although he mostly ignored the rat priests in the outpost.

But there was indeed an exception, and an accident.

The guy who turned into a statue, and the guy who carved the gods himself.

Back then, the guy who carved the gods also made him look sideways.

But it was just a sideways look.

As the high priest who stood on the rat kingdom.

The pride of the white rat did not need a reason.

But the years still left irreversible marks on him.

For this reason, he forged a sharp blade, and at the same time, he was going to let go of this sharp blade.

His eyes closed slightly.

He did not look at the rat assassin beside him.

He sighed without sadness or joy.

"I am old too."

He did not have more feelings about aging.

But this sentence made the rat assassin who was about to leave pause slightly.

The rat assassin who paused at the door blocked the light outside the door.

It also revealed a little of her appearance.

She had the same white hair as the white rat.

Soon, she took another step and the rat assassin disappeared in the underground tunnel outside the door.

In the darkness surge.

A force hidden in the dark began to act, and the rat assassins began to gather towards the outpost.

The leader was a tall rat assassin.

………….

Just when the rat empire was once again in turmoil.

Du Yuan was not idle either.

In the dark abyss.

A dispute began.

The leap to rank brought Xiaochun a lot of wisdom improvement.

This guy even secretly wanted to do something in secret.

The main body climbed on the divine pillar where Du Yuan was sleeping to show a peaceful appearance.

The spreading branches came to this deep abyss.

Wanted to secretly attack the craftsman's heart.

Xiaochun, who had improved his wisdom, would no longer be scared by the rough tricks of the craftsman's heart.

The spreading branches were not something that the craftsman's heart, which only had a little hazy spirituality, could stop.

The branches inserted into the beating craftsman's heart, greedily wanting to eat the craftsman's heart in front of it.

Until a figure appeared in this deep abyss.

Just a grasp, Xiaochun's branches were firmly controlled by Du Yuan.

Facing the figure of Du Yuan, Xiaochun was in fear, and the branch trembled violently and softened into a line.

He slid to his knees without hesitation.

He didn't even dare to resist.

The shadow left by Du Yuan on Xiaochun was quite deep, instinctive fear and obedience.

But at the same time, the heart of the craftsman had another attitude, as if it had finally met a savior, and the hazy spirituality continued to emit the intimate breath to Du Yuan.

But it was ignored by Du Yuan.

He held Xiaochun's branch in his hand without sadness or joy.

He had made a decision on the dispute between Xiaochun and the heart of the craftsman.

In fact, there was nothing to hesitate. In the next war, he needed Xiaochun more.

As for the heart of the craftsman, the metal smelting of the rat people was on the right track.

At the same time, its spirituality became hazy because of its incompleteness.

In fact, it can still wait, wait for its spirituality to be completed, but Du Yuan was also curious.

What will swallowing the heart of the craftsman bring to Xiaochun.

Just one thing.

This devouring must be done under his own control.

Xiaochun can only take what he gives to her.

This must be understood by her.

He is the master of everything.

At the same time, some rules must be determined by him.

The rat people need more blood mushrooms, and the blood mushrooms will inevitably be spread throughout the rat kingdom. This is also what Du Yuan wants to promote.

But it’s all about balance.

Amid Xiaochun's trembling movements, Du Yuan let go of its branches and paused quietly.

Xiaochun was a little at a loss, but at the same time, she instinctively climbed towards the craftsman's heart in front of her.

Only this time, Xiaochun learned wisely and started to watch Du Yuan's attitude.

It wasn't until he was sure that Du Yuan didn't stop him that the devouring started again.

Du Yuan was here silently witnessing all this happening.

Until the death of the old priest triggered something in Du Yuan.

But there is no need to look away.

That bit of true spirit has followed the connection and found Du Yuan here.

The divine pillar was thrown into Du Yuan's sleeping body, and golden light spots were flying in it.

Du Yuan's body opened his eyes for a moment and shook his head regretfully.

Unexpectedly, the wild boar god who had just laughed at him would be in the same situation.

Saints are naturally precious, but Du Yuan, who does not uphold the kingdom of God, is also unable to accommodate the true spirit of believers.

In most cases, the true spirit of the believer can only be allowed to dissipate naturally, but after the old priest became a saint, he was able to sense his own existence with that little connection.

It just so happened that Du Yuan was very close.

Flying up and down around Du Yuan in the divine pillar.

But it is difficult to resist the fate of dissipation.

This is why Du Yuan shook his head.

As for the surging tide in the rat kingdom, and what happened at the outpost.

White rats have always been handled well.

He needs to keep an eye on Xiaochun's swallowing and leaping. When necessary, whether to interrupt or guide, he needs to keep an eye on these.

At the same time, he will also deal with the balance of blood mushrooms after Xiaochun completes his leap.

Du Yuan would not directly interfere with the rat people's affairs.

Although he kept his eyes on them, on this noisy group of guys.

………….

outpost.

The Skaven Assassins have arrived.

Drill through a secret underground tunnel and easily emerge into the outpost.

At this time, the outpost was much deserted and deserted than before.

Large numbers of slave rats originally gathered there were driven out to block the road.

The rat priests who stopped at the outpost were either killed on the spot or expelled.

The outpost, which had been stained with the glory of the victory of the third expedition and had recently become a lot more prosperous, became completely silent.

But this is just an appearance.

As long as you get close to the small temple in the outpost, you will find that a grand sacrifice has entered the preparation stage.

And these were observed by the rat assassins hiding in the darkness.

Not much hesitation.

Faced with this situation, the tall assassin leader issued an order to kill.

She didn't care what the priests in these outposts were up to.

I don't care about their intentions.

Once they cross the line, these guys are dead to her.

As sharp blades, they are responsible for killing, and they only know how to kill.

The author has been killed by the weather recently. It's too cold. It snowed today in my south, where it never snows. I also have a bit of a cold. I won't be able to add more updates until it gets warmer.
