Chapter 141 66. Shushu, I.
In fact, these three problems that Darkus mentioned left a hole. As long as these three problems can be solved half. The Lizardman race and the continent of Lustria will be able to usher in a revival, and the power will be in the hands of the first Lord Slankroka and his student Lord Mazdamu. This can avoid and solve many potential problems, such as Suppressing the strength of Sotek's sect made both the Slann and the Skinks relatively satisfied, and prevented conflicts among the Lizardmen due to religious issues.
Darkus stayed in Chacua for a few more days without exploring or digging. Tehenhoin had already looked through this place several times when he returned to Chakua. He walked around a few times and found only golden buildings, but no signs of hidden stone slabs. He suspected that the golden building had a shielding effect, but after some experiments, it turned out that it really didn't. But what made him feel interesting was that there was no gold mine near this temple city, which was basically made of gold. He could only attribute it to the magical power of the ancient saint.
In the past few days, Alyssa had been competing with Tehenhuoyin and exchanging Gulzhifeng's manipulations with the help of her brother. Even Tehenhuoyin praised her for her use of the Amber Spear. Darkus also exchanged many tactical tactics and operations with Tehenhuoyin. Tehenhuoyin can be said to be one of the lizardmen with the most experience in commanding. He is good at large-scale combat and also good at jungle guerrilla warfare. He also has very unique insights into the use of behemoths and war devices.
Only now did Darkus understand that Sotek's sect was following the path of Gul's style, that is, the path of the beast system. He had always remembered that it was after Sotek appeared that the Skink Priest could control the Winds of Jiren, which was the life system. But it turned out that it was not the case. He had remembered it wrong. Without Slann's teachings, the Skink Priests would never be able to use the style of Gyron. As for the way of the Skink Seer, it is different. The initial system setting comes with it. He can do everything, but he can only use low-level spells.
"What level is Coptiti?"
Darkus suddenly thought about this question. After thinking for a while, he shook his head and gave up. It actually had nothing to do with him. The magic of these skink priests is usually easy to use in small-scale battles. , these Skink Priests are basically not needed in large-scale battles. He also asked the master to take a look. He is of average talent. Due to Druch's special characteristics, he has no plans to learn magic. He might want to serve as an adjutant next to Malekith for a while in the future. How about taking advantage of Druch's political qualifications and learning magic to create trouble for himself and the family behind him?
Of course, the beast system of the Sotek sect also has a special ability, which is to communicate with beasts. Darkus's jumping thinking directly wondered what would be the chemistry of the beast system mages and beast tamers who can communicate with beasts when they are superimposed. reaction?
When setting off, Darkus gave Tehenhoin a task, which was to make a copy of the stone tablets engraved with the methods of making war devices. He would pick them up after he returned. And Tehenhuoyin must be personally responsible. He cannot be trusted by Tehenhuoyin's unreliable first-born brothers who have five plus five leadership qualities.
Tehenhoin also handed Dacus a slate. He took a look at the content on the slate and suddenly felt that it was unusual. The above records another use of the solar engine, which is to expand the power and range of pure light energy by arranging unique formations and another way of praising ancient Saint Kotek to resonate between the solar engines. But after watching it for a while, he handed the slate to Tehenhoin. He didn't have that many solar engines in his team now, and he would conduct specific experiments when he came back.
The content that Darkus hoped to appear did not appear. He also thought that when he set off, the Sotek Slate would show the method of restarting the incubation pool, even a simple word, but there was nothing. He was thinking too much. .
The team was sent out again as the rainy season was approaching. Instead of choosing the city of mist, Slanwupek, which is not far east of Chakua, Darkus chose to go to the city of Defilement, wander around the outskirts of Queza, and then transfer directly to the first city, Ita. Spend the rainy season there.
As for the City of Starlight, Asrotor and Darkus do not plan to go. This temple city fell during the great invasion, and fell again when the Skaven invaded. The hatching pool has also been corrupted, 700 It was completely destroyed by the vampire pirate Luther Harken years ago. The lizardmen of Asroto took away a large number of items before retreating, but some were still obtained by Luther Harken. If he went there, he would really pick up rags. Went scavenging.
A big rat with horns on his head and a white body, Musk Graypaw was born in the Mordkin clan. He was a Skaven Gray Seer apprentice who lived a life of comfort and cruelty.
The Gray Seer is also known as the Son of the Horned Rat, the prophet of the great underground lords, and the mouth of the Horned Rat. They are powerful sorcerers, able to channel horrific destructive energy, razing enemy armies with lightning or summoning voracious swarms of rats. Some Gray Seers ride fearsome Screaming Knells, wreaking unspeakable havoc on their enemies.
More important than the Gray Seers' ability to inflict destruction on the battlefield is their status among the Skaven. There is a clan council within the Gray Seers clan. There are 169 official Gray Prophets serving as MPs. Why 169? Because 13 is the sacred number of the Horned Rat, the square number of 13, 13 13s! So special yes! These 169 members vote individually to decide on the various proposals, plans and plans of the Gray Prophet clan for the Skaven clans around the world.
Then some Gray Prophets will serve as envoys of the Thirteen Councils and travel among various clans. If a clan has the support of the Gray Seers, it means that it has an advantage and can outclass other clans when dealing with them. They can have the upper hand in trades, and a dominant Skaven will press relentlessly. This advantage should be taken advantage of while it lasts, for the Gray Seers will eventually make their demands. It is well known that in Skaven society, no matter what you get, you have to pay a high price. Of course, there are also some gray prophets who will serve as executioners to deal with some clans that are not obedient.
Mask Graypaw thought that with his ability, he could join the 169 Gray Seers, but his mentor was the famous Gray Seer Sklarin Tuintik, who played the record Skaven in the Council of Thirteen As a recorder of the behavior and character of the Skaven, his mentor never participated in the "Byzantine" political struggles of the Skaven underground. His mentor took notes and wrote down what he should. He also traveled among the various clans and kept simple records. During the war, he also stood in the safest place to record. Whenever there was any disturbance, he would flirt with others. He was a very capable existence.
"The Plague Monks don't know the true nature of the Horned Rat, so they sacrifice themselves madly. They are useful. But if they dare to mock the Gray Seer, this shameless behavior will lead to their death!" "
Oh, my brothers, what have you to say? Is that right? We are both chosen by the real Lord of Decay, and his seat will always be indispensable in the Council of Thirteen. Others' seats may change at any time, but his seat will always be retained. No one can, can't replace it. Him! He preaches the truth to us, and we listen to his heart. We all know his intentions, we are the leaders of the Skaven, the spiritual guide, the guide, who can guide the whole clan to kill all over the world. , Massive killing!"
These are the strange records of Clarin Tuuntik, and the strangest thing is that this veteran gray prophet is different from other gray prophets. He rarely clears out his apprentices every once in a while like other Gray Prophets, and adopts new apprentices for training. He rarely looks for any excuses to embarrass his own apprentices, and will kill him when the apprentices show their teeth. He can always maintain a magical boundary with his apprentices.
But a Gray Seer apprentice must eventually become an official Gray Seer. In fact, the method is very simple, so simple that there is only one step, and he only needs to kill his mentor. No matter what method is used, as long as you can prove that you killed yourself, you can inherit all the political and economic legacy of your mentor, become an official Gray Prophet, and can participate in the Gray Prophet Clan Council.
Not long ago, Clarin Tuntic discovered a clue about Musk. As a record officer who is good at telling stories, he told Musk a story. There is a story that Musk can recite backwards, that is, the gray prophet Chuanquillo encountered a magical treasure while traveling in Lustria, and then he gave the task of finding the treasure to Musk. Musk knew that his mentor had told this story to many of his apprentices, and none of the apprentices who heard this story and went looking for it came back successfully.
As a heretic in the Skarian society, the Plague Clan has a very unfriendly relationship with the Gray Prophet Clan. The previous Skaven Civil War was caused by these two clans, and the second civil war is still going on. It was also caused by these two clans. But something as large as the Civil War has nothing to do with the almost-absolutely neutral Clelin Tuintik, who has always maintained a relatively friendly relationship with the Plague Clan.
Musk could only bite the bullet and go through the underground passages with a small army led by a Plague Priest of the Plague Clan to the Lustria continent. These madmen from the Plague Clan came to collect some samples of Lustria's flora and fauna. For them to develop new diseases. Along the way, he walked on thin ice, always keeping a distance from the incense burners and shackles of those madmen, and he also had to beware of sudden attacks by snakes in the underground passages. The Skaven's underground passages have remained intact over the years. Fortunately, they are now filled with snakes, servants of Sotek who protect his followers from the Skaven. The threat of human beings, under the attack of these snakes, this army was already gone when it walked out of Queza.
Not long after leaving Queza, this team was discovered by a patrol led by the Tehenhoin Firstborn brothers who were guarding the outside of Queza. It happened that Darkus' troops passed by. Several thunderbolts fell from the sky, and raindrops of javelins, crossbow arrows and poison darts came. The plague censer monks wielding censer flails were shot down before they even touched the enemy. The deformed body of the leading plague priest was covered with pustules, and there was no good skin. A hot amber spear suddenly appeared and penetrated directly. It hit the Plague Priest's body, and the poisonous blood bursting out of the pustules almost splashed onto Musk's body.
"Hold on, I'll call someone!"
Musk turned around and ran away. Hearing the sound of the projectile scratching from behind his ears, he twisted his head as if he had been blessed by the big horned rat. An arrow hit the horn on his head, and then deflected. Half of his ears were missing. He was still running desperately despite the severe pain, not daring to look back.
"Go! Be careful! Catch them alive!"
Darkus clearly saw that the arrow he shot hit the head of the horned Skaven, but the Skaven was still running. With. He was stunned for a moment, then reacted through the power of destiny in his heart and shouted an order.
"Chuanquero? Can't?" The amazing thing is that this force of destiny is almost the same as what Bi felt with Tehenhoin who lurked in the jungle to give him a unique welcome ceremony a few days ago.
"Zhushu, I want to die right away! Die!"
Musk was soon pushed to the ground in a panic, and his unique red robe was covered with mud.
"Hey, red with white, it's so festive." Darkus said jokingly as he rode the big guy and walked slowly in front of Musk.
The big guy had lowered his head, and the saliva from his mouth kept dripping onto Musk's face. It stretched out its tongue full of barbs and was ready to lick Musk's hairy face. It made an impatient low. Roar, while constantly asking Darkus for his opinion, it was the first time he had seen such a long-haired thing, and he wanted to try it to see if it was delicious.
At this time, Musk was shaking into a ball and mumbling uncomfortably. Ren, who had a cruel smile in his face, kicked him hard on the chin with his spiked shoe armor. He didn't dare to scream loudly, but instead shook even more violently, and his body began to secrete a strange... The smell wafts in the air.
"Ren!"
"Sir?"
"Yeah~"
Darkus shouted while comforting the big guy. Renn turned around and bowed his head respectfully. He nodded at this strange mouse. .
"Yes, sir."
Ren, who lowered his head, understood Darkus' meaning from the corner of his eye. He turned around and motioned to the Druch pirates next to him to hold down the mouse, and then took out his serrated dagger. It dangled in front of the mouse's eyes.
Under the guidance of Tehenhoin's first-born brothers, the skinks used ropes to gather the corpses of the Skaven together. No giant beast or cold lizard tried to eat the corpses. The skink keepers led the ancient salamander to the designated location and patted its neck folds. The ancient salamander began to spit out flames and burn the body, while the lightning from the Eye of the Storm and Chupa Coco also struck.
When the harmless treatment was carried out later, except for Druch who was flying in the sky, everyone else gathered on the other side of Musk to watch, and kept an absolute distance from Darkus, and Genevieve was also far away. Everyone is looking forward to it. The Drukhi had heard the legend of this long-haired thing, but this was the first time they actually encountered this long-haired thing. They knew that this long-haired thing was intelligent, and they began to talk cruelly. And bet on how and where Ren would make the first cut, and what kind of cry the long-haired thing would make after the cut. They are Druch, and the agitation in their blood has been suppressed for a long time after they followed Darkus, the ancient saint Umak, to Lustria.
"Don't kill me. I'll have to ask questions later."
The more Darkos listened, the more something was wrong. It seemed that Ren and Druch had misunderstood what he meant, or that the questioning would be conducted during the interrogation? But he didn't stop it, so why should he? He just said it lightly.
After the bets of the Drukis were almost finished, the finished Chupa Coco pulled Akadan and the leader of the red-crowned skinks around, and more skinks watching the fun gathered around.
"Praise the Ancient Saint!" Renn stood up, raised his serrated dagger and shouted in lizard language.
"Praise to the Old Ones! Praise to Sotek!"
The red-crowned skinks from Hesiotar, Holotor and the Cult of Sotek cheered with bloodthirsty and cruelty. These skinks treated other races are also inherently cruel, especially the Skaven.
"Zhushu, I really want to die! Die!"
Musk, who was pinned to the ground, was shaking even more.
