Chapter 90, God’s Cheese Plate
But where is this opportunity?
Not yet.
………….
Underground Rat City.
In the temple, White Rat looked at the wild boar high priest's daughter who was carried all the way from the outpost by the temple messengers. A playful smile appeared on his calm expression for a long time.
Especially when you see the rat warlord with a flattering smile on his face who is following the temple messenger.
“Interesting little guy.”
After hearing these words, whether it was the temple envoy or the rat warlord, their faces had expressions of fear and fear at the same time.
Although Bai Shu’s words did not refer to them at all.
………….
In the fierce struggle, the curtain set off by the white mouse is about to come to an end.
The Temple Priests, or the Temple Council, or the Ratmen Council, are all appropriate.
There are thirteen places in total.
The five most famous and powerful rat priests were successfully installed, and the three rat warlords and Rat Zhan were also able to take their seats.
It's just that the appearance of the next four characters is not so convincing.
A little-known rat-man priest who is in charge of the breeding of young rat-men.
A temple messenger who has been running around in the Ratman Empire all year round, worrying about the distribution and transportation of blood mushrooms.
Two big-clawed priests, one of whom, a chipmunk priest with mottled hair, is in charge of the largest team of slave rats. The development and construction of the underground rat city are inseparable from his efforts.
There is also the long paw wearing a pair of blue metal gloves and sitting on the deputy position of the white mouse.
If there is nothing wrong with the Temple Messenger becoming a Temple Messenger, the remaining three are totally wrong.
Especially for Rat Zhan, his luck has been very bad these days.
First, the rat army, which was regarded as the biggest bargaining chip, was boldly taken away by a despicable boy. Although not all of these rat armies were lost in the lush forest, what was annoying was that he I didn't learn about this through a report from my younger brother.
I learned about this from the discussions of other rat priests.
This made him particularly annoyed.
There was no place to vent his anger. The rat warlord he sent out was sent back by the temple messenger under White Rat yesterday.
A head was sent back!
Shu Zhan naturally understood what happened. This stupid guy turned to the white rat, but he ignored that the white rat did not need the loyalty of a rat warlord.
This is not a big deal. There are a lot of stupid guys anyway. As long as they are appointed, it will be fine. However, the quota of the temple priest represented by this guy has been reserved by the white rat!
Thinking of this, Shu Zhan was angry at how he chose such a stupid guy as his subordinate.
Yesterday, he went to see Bai Shu in person, but Bai Shu did not explain the matter, and he did not dare to ask.
Having held back his anger, of course he didn't dare to vent it directly to the white mouse, but that didn't mean that he couldn't do anything.
In this preparatory meeting, Rat Zhan took his two remaining rat warlords to question a certain unknown guy.
In order to show his attitude, Rat Zhan directly chose the little-known guy next to the white rat.
“The other guys deserve their names, but does this guy have any achievements?”
Rat Zhan unceremoniously questioned Longclaw.
The long claw that had been silent since the beginning of the parliament finally raised its head at this moment. After seeing it was a rat fight.
Sneered directly and without hesitation.
"Is it your turn to question this guy who was chased around by the lizard people?"
Shu Zhan's eyes turned red and he slapped the table hard.
“What are you talking about!”
The scene that was about to turn into chaos was stopped simply by a look from the white mouse.
Ignore the rat war that was obviously unconvinced.
Just a simple sentence.
"There's no problem, that's it."
That's it, everything is given.
The thirteen ratmen of the temple priesthood were identified one by one.
Rat war, long claws, two rat warlords, one vacant rat warlord, five of the most famous and powerful rat priests, a chore priest responsible for breeding and logistics, and one responsible for The Great Claw Priest of the city's development and construction, a White Rat confidant responsible for matters related to blood mushrooms.
Then there is the white rat who stands above the thirteen ratmen. As the high priest of the temple priest group, he also exists as the high priest of the entire ratman kingdom.
In this way, the layout of the Ratman Kingdom was completely determined.
Thirteen rat men who serve as temple priests will take over all aspects of power in the rat kingdom.
All that is left is a huge sacrifice to declare to the gods, and then these thirteen rat men will suddenly become big shots at the top of the rat kingdom, even if the white rats are still looking down on them.
But it is obvious that the White Rat will gradually withdraw from the control of various affairs of the Rat Man Kingdom and hand over these rights to the Thirteen Rat Men in front of them.
This is their reward and their punishment, because these rights have been firmly tied to these thirteen seats by white rats.
With the subsequent reduction of power, the power in the hands of these thirteen rat men will become greater and greater, and there will be more and more resources, but this is only an appearance.
If you are addicted to it and cannot let it go, you may even be stupid enough to put what you already own into the seat.
Then when their seats are taken away, these guys will be horrified to discover that they are nothing.
Of course, even if it is not stupid, this matter will not stop. The white mouse has put cheese in the cheese trap that is tempting enough and cannot be taken out.
As long as you can't let go, then you can only keep adding more money to this cheese trap. There is no harmony among the thirteen priests of the Ratman Temple.
Obviously if you don’t increase your bet, you will never be able to overpower your opponent.
Of course, if you are really smart and don't want to put your cheese into the trap,
Of course, you will be a smart guy.
But the guys who can't let go will kick you off first and make you into a new cheese.
Will a greedy mouse let the shining cheese run in front of him?
Smart guy.
A cruel strategy, and this process will be accompanied by the end of the last process, which will enter an unsolvable closed loop after offering the stone tablet inscribed with the oath to the gods.
Even if the white rat dies in the future, no matter how ambitious the rat priests who take over are, they will never be able to break out of this closed loop.
Because the plate of cheese, which represents power, will be placed in the palace of the gods by the white mouse.
This is the White Rat's gift, a plate of cheese that is always growing!
All Skaven, all Skaven warlords and priests, or whatever, if you desire power, then pray to the gods!
Because you can only pray to gods!
