Chapter 309 [So, what’s the price? 】
In Xia En’s perception.
Kool was in a dark cave, his expression was gloomy and revealed madness, and he was muttering something in a low voice.
Combined with the crude rituals scrawled on the ground, the mottled blood dripping on it, and the [Lava Ore] powder emitting an ominous red light...
To say that this is not someone I’m afraid no one would believe this ritual of sacrifice to an evil god!
The corner of Xia En's mouth twitched slightly, and he reflected on himself: "It seems that I pushed him too hard...could it drive him crazy?"
"[Lord of the Rhine] ah... I pray to you and ask you to give me strength..."
Kul's prayer sounded again.
Hearing the title [Lord of the Rhine] in his mouth, Xia En was a little unable to hold back.
Although this is the name that Sean himself left on the parchment, but listening to Kull reciting this title carefully and reverently, something feels strange?
I always feel like I'm wearing a tiger's skin, bluffing like a magician.
But having said that, Xia En’s description of [Lord of the Rhine] is quite fair, right?
[Walker who travels through the "Secret Sea"] - means that he can use [Deep Sea Submarine] to travel through the [Secret Sea].
[Ten Thousands of Travelers in “Secret Realms”]——Refers to the fact that he uses the [Submarine Anchor Point] to teleport into different [Secret Realms].
[Lord of a World] - refers to Xia En being the master of the secret realm of [Rhine].
Doesn’t every one of these match?
"Nothing wrong, nothing wrong at all..."
Xia En muttered quietly, suppressing the complicated emotions in his heart.
Although he has never been an evil god, he has never eaten pork and has always seen pigs running away. He still has some knowledge of the communication process between evil gods and believers.
So, Xia En began to respond with the help of that mysterious thread.
"I have heard your voice."
Perhaps because this "thread" has just been generated, it is still fragile and unstable.
Perhaps because the ritual arranged by Kuhl was too crude, there was some distortion during the transmission process.
In Kool's perspective.
As soon as he silently recited the name of [Lord of the Rhine], a low and chaotic murmur came from his ears.
The sound sounded like dirty flesh and blood churning in a boiling pot, or like disgusting and sticky limbs squirming.
But the strange thing is that Kuhl still understood the general meaning from the messy and vague whisper——
[Your words...I already know...]
“The [Lord of the Rhine] is real!”
“The contents of that leather paper are true!”
After a brief moment of nervousness and fear, Kull couldn't help but widen his eyes, a strong joy appeared on his face, and greed and desire grew.
Until this moment, he finally found a way to defeat Bronzebeard and become the leader of the [Warhammer Tribe] again!
As for the strange and chaotic voice of [Lord of Rhine], although Kuhl had strong fear and uneasiness, he had previously regarded [Lord of Rhine] as an "evil god".
With such characteristics, it was exactly in line with his expectations, so he wouldn't be too panicked.
Kool calmed down, suppressed the fear and excitement in his heart, and whispered as piously as possible.
"[Lord of the Rhine], I want power!"
"Any form of power will do, please."
After saying this, Kull remained closed. He closed his eyes and waited quietly for the [Lord of Rhine]'s response.
After a moment, the majestic, indecipherable whisper sounded again.
【So...what's the price? 】
Hearing this, Kull's heart suddenly sank and his face turned pale.
Yes, the god I communicate with is not a kind person, but a real evil god!
Since you want power, you have to pay a corresponding price!
The most common price is life, vitality and sacrifices.
Thinking of this, Kull immediately became frightened and asked softly: "What... do you want?"
[This time...your sacrifice...I have received it...]
[More...]
In the intermittent murmur, Kuhl understood The meaning of [Lord of the Rhine].
Subsequently, an indescribable secret force entered his body along the invisible thread.
"This...is this?!"
Kuhl's mind was shaken, and he carefully felt the secret power entering his body.
The nature of this secret power is extremely special and different from any secret power that Kuhl has ever sensed.
It seems to have the characteristics of all secret powers, can be transformed into any kind of secret power, and also has an indescribable and amazing activity.
It is ever-changing and mysterious.
Moreover, as soon as this secret power entered Kull's body, it spread to his limbs and bones, and seemed to be subtly transforming his body.
Kull can clearly feel that his body is becoming stronger!
After a while, this secret power lay dormant in his body, as if falling into a deep sleep.
But Kuhl felt that he could wake it up at any time.
"Huh..."
Kul Chang exhaled a breath of turbid air, stretched out his hand and pressed hard on the rock wall, and a small hole immediately appeared.
"Is this...what I can do?"
The bearded dwarf's body trembled with excitement, his breathing became heavy, and his eyes were full of excitement.
He actually got a new power from the [Lord of Rhine]!
"By the way, what is that secret power?"
Kul carefully mobilized a ray of secret power and placed it on the rock wall in front of him.
Just the moment it came into contact with the rock wall, many cracks appeared, as if the secret power penetrated directly into the depths of the rock formation, destroying it from a deeper level.
This kind of power is really thrilling!
"Is this the power of [Lord of the Rhine]?"
"So strong! Too strong! Hahaha..."
Seeing this scene, Kull I couldn't help but burst out laughing: "If I can continue to gain this kind of power, even Bronzebeard won't be my opponent, right?"
He muttered to himself with greedy fire burning in his eyes.
"Bronzebeard, Hope, Mary, wait!"
"The position of patriarch will definitely be mine!"
At this moment, Kuhl thought He is like the protagonist in some legend.
Although he encountered major setbacks, he mastered the ability to transcend common sense because of his unexpected encounters. From then on, he soared into the sky and could no longer be stopped.
Small characters like Bronzebeard and Hope are just small obstacles on the way to his rise.
The feeling of having power was so good that Kull couldn't help but be deeply intoxicated and addicted to it, and even became a little arrogant.
However, Kuhl did not know...
All gifts from fate have already been marked with a price tag behind them.
[The Lord of the Rhine], also known as Xia En, gave Kull the secret power through invisible threads. It was none other than his exclusive [Secret Power of the Void]. Because this secret power can simulate the characteristics of almost all secret powers, Xia En naturally adjusted it to suit Kull and took root in Kull's body.
From Kuhl's perspective, you may feel that your physical fitness has been strengthened and your body's secret power has become full.
It is natural to conclude that he has become stronger.
Only, from another perspective.
Xia En's secret power has taken root throughout Kull's body, naturally including the heart, trachea, brain and other vital parts.
He only needed one thought to take Kull's life.
Even if Kull stops praying to him in the future, his entire body will become extremely weak due to the loss of the support of [Secret Power of the Void].
It is not impossible to get seriously ill directly.
However, Shane believes that Kull will continue to repeat this process.
Because, after enjoying the taste of power, he can no longer tolerate the weak self he used to be!
Especially for people like Kuhl, this mentality will be particularly obvious.
It can be said that from the moment Kull prayed to Shane for strength, his life was no longer his own.
This is the price Kuhl paid!
"Hiss..."
Thinking of this, Xia En couldn't help but take a breath.
Thinking about it carefully, this behavior probably, maybe, seems, maybe... is indeed no different from what the evil god does?
However, when he thought that Kuhl had framed him, Xia En's mentality instantly calmed down.
He has never been kind to his enemies.
Xia En said to himself: "I just don't know what Kull's reaction will be if he knows that I am the [Lord of the Rhine]..."
"By then, his The expression will be wonderful, right?”
at the same time.
Kool knew nothing about his tragic fate in the future. He took a few deep breaths to calm down.
"Wait, [Lord of the Rhine] said he received a sacrifice?"
"But I obviously didn't put any sacrifices..."
Kul glanced around the ritual track in confusion, and soon discovered that the [Lava Ore] powder that previously glowed dark red had disappeared at some point.
Kuhl suddenly realized: "It turns out that the sacrifice is [Lava Mine]!"
Realizing this, his eyes couldn't help but twinkle.
Of course he has a lot of [Lava Mine] in stock at home.
More importantly, as the outstanding craftsman of the [Warhammer Tribe] second only to Hope, the forging of many equipment in the tribe was completed by him.
In the process, you will also get the [Lava Ore] given by the tribe.
At that time, you can completely hide some of it privately and sacrifice more [Lava Mines] to the [Lord of the Rhine] in exchange for more power.
"This is totally feasible, but we have to hide it from that old guy Hope..."
Kool began to silently think about the feasibility of this.
If Xia En knew what he was thinking, he would definitely call out - "You are such a fucking talent!"
Good guy, I have just had contact with the "Evil God", and I am ready to Sold his tribe?
This is probably the so-called "holy body of a born cultist", right?
Currently, the most valuable things to Xia En in [The Furnace Secret Realm] are the [Lava Mine], followed by the equipment made by the dwarves.
——If the [Moon-Winging Clan] in [Rhine Secret Realm] can be equipped with dwarf equipment, their combat effectiveness will be greatly increased again.
So, Xia En also listed these two as the targets of "sacrifice".
On the other side, after Kull was ready to be a traitor, he completely cleared the rituals at the scene and whispered to himself at the same time.
"Praise the [Lord of the Rhine]!"
He believed that his life trajectory would be greatly changed by the [Lord of the Rhine].
And at this moment.
A tremor on the ground suddenly came from a distance.
“What’s going on?”
Kull's expression changed slightly and he looked down the cave.
I saw a group of dwarves wearing armor and holding large axes, passing quickly through the passage below.
Like a fast-moving army!
"It's the Savage Ax Tribe! They're coming!"
Kool's heart jumped suddenly - he could easily identify the opponent from the iconic big axe. The identity of the group.
Not only that, he even saw a giant wolf with flames burning in its eyes in the team.
The huge and muscular body, the sharp claws and teeth, the fiery red hair... are all filled with a terrible sense of oppression.
Just standing there is enough to scare the average dwarf out of their wits and make them unable to resist.
There is no doubt that it is a genuine [Fire Seed]!
To be precise, this is a [Fire Wolf], or a tamed [Fire Wolf]!
Yes, in the [Forge Secret Realm], some powerful dwarf warriors can defeat and conquer the [Fire Seed] with their own strength.
And turning these [Fire Seeds] into your own mounts or partners can also become a valuable labor force for the entire tribe.
At this time, an extraordinarily tall dwarf was sitting on the back of this [Fire Wolf].
He is at least two heads taller than the average dwarf. His hair is as red as flames and sways slightly as the [Fire Wolf] advances.
That body obviously contains explosive power.
——The obedient and extremely well-behaved [Fire Wolf] under him, as well as the awed looks of the dwarves around him, are the best proof.
When he saw this person, Kull couldn't help but take a breath, and his heart seemed to skip a beat.
Explosion·Yangyan!
The number one warrior of [Yang Yan Tribe]!
Even in a remote place like [Warhammer Tribe], Kull has long heard of the deeds of this warrior.
It is said that Burst Yangyan was originally an abandoned child of the Yangyan tribe and was raised by a [Fire Seed].
Maybe it has something to do with his growth experience.
As Explosion Yangyan grew up, he quickly showed his extremely strong talent, which was incomparable with the [Furnace Secret Realm], and he had a profound knowledge of the power of the fire element.
In the second year after being brought back to the tribe, Burst defeated all his peers and was called a once-in-a-century genius.
However, due to his childhood experience, Burst has a very weird personality.
In other words, he is more on the wild side, and has even had bloody records of tearing enemies apart with his own hands during combat.
Many dwarves had a strong fear of him and called him [Son of Fire], which means the child of [Fire].
Although Kuhl already knew in advance that Burst would join the war.
But, how could they come so fast?
Kul suddenly woke up. Perhaps, at the same time that the secret message was sent, the team of the Savage Ax tribe had already set off!
Now, what should he do?
At this moment, Burst, who was sitting on the wolf's back, raised his head and looked in the direction of Kull.
