Chapter 280, fellow, blood mushrooms, good stuff!
Mouse War is thinking about the situation where the back road may be cut off.
Thinking, thinking, at this time, the disadvantages of his excessive concentration of power have emerged. He has a lot of power at his disposal, but very few people can use it.
There are too few rat warlords, and there are almost no rat warlords who can stand alone.
How to solve the current dilemma.
While thinking, Rat War remembered some guys.
A bit of joy appeared on Shu Zhan’s face.
This is a dangerous signal. Being targeted by this guy is really not a good thing, but the guy who is targeted by him often has no more choices.
That is a group of suitable guys, a group of guys who are not threatening but can be put to some use, very suitable guys.
………….
Rat people are a tenacious group.
This is clearly reflected in many aspects, such as cockroaches, no, to be precise, they are a bit tougher than cockroaches. After all, cockroaches only climb instinctively, while rat people do not. It is the ability to rely on wisdom to avoid many dangers.
The rat people on the main continent have gradually stabilized in recent times, and have even rebounded in number.
Because other alien races in the dangerous areas of the Wilderness Mountains, those more powerful guys were destroyed by the rat warlords, and a large area was vacated.
The ability to capture them has always been in a state of decline.
After the rat warlords have accumulated some savings, they will give up the raids on these rat people. The methods of the rat mercenaries are gradually revealed through encounters one after another.
These rat people on the main continent abandoned their lifestyle in underground tunnels in a very short period of time and turned to wandering on the surface.
The threat still exists. The invasion of the Skaven mercenaries hangs overhead like a dark cloud, and the arrival of the Skaven wanderers is the thunder brewing in the dark clouds.
One is the trapper who appears at any time and poses an immediate threat, and the other is the appropriator who moves over and continues to occupy the land. It is hard to say which one is a greater threat to these guys.
These guys are in constant fear all day long, but they are very good at giving birth and can eat.
In the wilderness, a rat plague brewed by the rat people of the main continent has already begun to appear. The abundance at that moment became the nourishment for these guys to multiply wildly.
The old rat-men elders have made a decision. They will leave this land after accumulating a wave of rats, and head towards the depths of the continent to escape from these strange compatriots.
This will be a tragic journey.
It should have been like this, until a guy holding a wooden stick, wearing inferior leather, raising his head high, and an arrogant look on his face returned to his original group.
These guys did not resist the return of their companions, perhaps because of the power brewing in this guy, which belonged to the elders.
Of course, this is not the most important thing.
The most important thing is that this guy brought some good things, a stone pillar carved with fine patterns, some bright red mushrooms, and the belief in gods.
This is a situation that only occurs under the instigation of the arrogant guy Mouse Zhan.
In the entire Rat Man Empire, this guy is the only one who dares to use the temple of the gods and the sacred blood pool as a bargaining chip.
The rat people in the main continent have not tried blood mushrooms, but their reactions to blood mushrooms are traceable. After all, both sides are rat people.
This bright mushroom can almost overwhelm everything, and it has enough power to cause some changes in a very short time.
As long as more rat people have a taste and eat one, everything will go smoothly.
In the name of the envoy, this returning guy became the leader of this group of rat people on the main continent in a very short period of time. The wise and old rat man elder died in a turmoil.
It was a bloody turmoil, and the rat elder was protected by the most powerful rat warriors in the main continent.
One thing to say is that the rat people in the main continent seem to be far more civilized than the rat people in the rat man empire. The elder system, various myths and revelations spread, and some special customs are all civilization. traces left behind.
Perhaps in the long past, there was indeed a prosperous rat kingdom here on the main continent.
The strongest rat warrior in the main continent is indeed brave, and he is not even that afraid of death. There is just a problem, how powerful can a rat man be, no matter how powerful he is?
What’s more, this returning guy is not alone.
In the bloody turmoil, some dumb and indifferent guys showed their traces. The sharp spears pressed down neatly, like an insurmountable high wall. The powerful rat The human warriors could not cross.
Being killed on the spot, the rat man elder he protected soon followed suit.
On a barren mountain range, on a raised boulder, a stone pillar with complicated patterns stood. The blood pool had not yet been stained with blood, and the elders and warriors were hanging high.
A guy was dancing excitedly, and behind him, some dumbfounded guys stood quietly.
Wearing cheap leather and holding a rough wooden stick, he was so excited and happy.
It’s not surprising. After all, not long ago, he was still one of those inferior guys. Now, he has transformed and now has the qualifications to lead a great palace of gods.
Great gods, great gods!
He was so excited that he couldn't help himself.
And not only that, that big shot, that noble big shot, the big shot from the Holy Empire, he also made a promise to himself.
As long as he can do that successfully, he will be qualified to go to the Holy City.
This is something that can make your body tremble unconsciously just thinking about it. Going to that holy city will feel like you are no longer a humble person.
Of course, this does not come without a price.
But he could do anything for it, he swore, and the price wouldn't be worth mentioning.
My eyes fell on the same race gathered in front of me, the uneasy rat-men.
The price is really not worth mentioning.
On the altar, this guy shouted loudly. The heads of the rat-men elders and warriors were beheaded as the first batch of sacrifices. The faces of the rat-men gathered here were a little confused.
Even though this situation happened among them, he was still confused, as if many things suddenly collapsed in an instant.
Blood mushrooms began to sprout in the blood pool that gradually turned red.
It’s just that they no longer have the qualifications to regret it. Gradually, many rat caravans came here, and many things that were previously unthinkable were left here, including food, weapons, crossbows, and various war equipment.
All of this is caused by Rat War, it is obvious.
In his opinion, these rat people from the main continent are extremely good chess pieces.
Excellent, these guys are not yet considered members of the Skaven Empire at this time.
To solve the problem of the back road, investing in a rat warlord can do it. You only need to use some of the accumulated resources in your hands. It is impossible for the rat warlord to be brave enough to start a counterattack all of a sudden, but Let his army suddenly expand more than ten times, and he still has the qualifications to tangle with the royal knights.
It’s just that this is not a very good idea. Rat Zhan does not trust his rat warlords.
And it’s not like there isn’t a better way. These ratmen on the main continent even bring their own dry food, which is obviously more suitable, and what he needs to pay is not much, some weapons, some resources, and a word of mouth Promise, a divine stone pillar.
These are not particularly precious things to Rat War.
As for that promise, of course, Rat War will keep it, and it's not a particularly troublesome thing.
But whether this guy can successfully reach the Underground Rat City is a question that is not yet known.
The temple guards have put all the temples of the great gods under control. This is the reverse of this group of guys, but there is one guy who likes to jump left and right on this bottom line. Of course, the temple It is true that the guards have nothing to do with the rats for the time being, but this does not mean that they will not do anything to a little rat priest after learning about this matter.
At this time, the identity of the leader of the temple given by the rat war is a reminder, but this is not sophisticated enough. The guy who was working in the sea not long ago is obviously not qualified to know these things.
Of course Rat Zhan will fulfill his promise and send this guy to the underground Rat City, to the city that is extremely sacred and great in his eyes, but one thing is not guaranteed, Rat Zhan There was no guarantee he would get there alive.
There is always something to burn when a war is going on. Now, some guys have appeared who brought their own dry food. Although it is not qualified as high-quality fuel, there is no big problem in making do.
The rat people on the main continent have begun preparations. Soon these guys will embark on the battlefield. For the great god, for the victory of the rat empire, for the Eastern Expeditionary Force, for the reputation of rat war, for Blood mushrooms, these guys are going to fight bloody battles.
This will be a cruel war, but they will not get anything. They can get faith. At least from the perspective of Rat Zhan, allowing these unfavored guys to believe in the great gods is It is indeed a gift, and not only that, these guys will also get blood mushrooms.
The blood mushrooms swaying on the corpses in the bright red water.
……………….
The situation in Lianyan Province is deteriorating rapidly, or in other words, the situation has never gotten better since those dazzling golden knights appeared.
The Skaven warlords are retreating steadily.
Continuously retreating, running around in this land in a hurry.
Qi decided to do something, and he is doing it.
Running silently on the mountain ridge, with the army behind him, the goal was the depths of the Lianyan Province, a place that the rat warlords had never reached.
The core of humanity on this land is in that place, and the flag will never simply retreat.
In order to become a rat warlord, he once dared to risk his life and run wildly on that vast grassland. After becoming a real rat warlord, he did not lose the courage he once had.
He is going to hold a grand sacrifice.
As for what will happen to him after this grand sacrifice, he doesn't plan to think about it, let's talk about it when the time comes.
But now, he is going to hold a grand sacrifice.
The rat people have an inexplicable obsession with sacrifice, which may come from their motivation for war.
In fact, this war is part of the third divine war that has not yet ended.
This ultimately makes this war different from ordinary wars. In this war, although failure is so unacceptable, if you set off a grand sacrifice before failure, then the situation will be different. It will be different.
The Divine War is a war started to offer sacrifices to the gods. In this war, victory is very important, but offering sacrifices to the great gods is equally important.
This is why Qi chose to take risks.
A grand sacrifice is indeed very important to him.
In fact, does he really still have the courage he once had? The answer is not known. It is just that many people and many intelligent creatures become stronger when they hold something in their hands. Feeling cowardly and hesitant.
Ratmen especially.
Does he really still have the courage he once had?
The golden armor was painted black in order to make itself more inconspicuous. If you continue to move forward, it is hard to predict what you will encounter. The rat warlords did not advance towards the depths. , because the large and small towns in this area are too tempting, and also because the troops stationed on the river are obviously not that easy to mess with.
The flag's silent march was also interrupted while crossing the river.
Several warships with lighting technology appeared at the end of the river. This is a relatively stable river channel, which is not only convenient for crossing the river, but also for the navigation of these warships.
Qi is the first of the remaining rat warlords to advance in the opposite direction.
Before becoming rat warlords, almost all of these guys were so brave, because only bravery can have that opportunity, or in other words, bravery is just a prerequisite, whether it is killing the leader on the battlefield and seizing the Flag, or surviving in chaotic battles and accumulating enough merits requires courage.
Even if it is the easiest way to accumulate merit, if you can do it, it is enough to declare that you are special.
Because the path of accumulating merit is just the easier one among the many impossible paths to become a rat warlord.
Is the easier of the impossible paths.
But as the saying goes, you often have more courage when you have nothing.
This is no exception even for Qi.
Courage is fading.
But the flag is still moving forward.
Desire is a very important thing for the rat people. The burning fire of desire can replace many things, including courage.
This burning flame of desire can drive everything and is the step of progress.
Although more often than not, if you are not careful enough, it is more likely that you will be ignited by desire and nothing will be left.
