Chapter 396 Reason and Fanaticism
Time passed very quickly. Two months had passed since Imrik led the army to plunder a large amount of supplies and about 15,000 strong slaves in the northern frozen soil.
The war between Snake and Rat has reached a stalemate, and even with the addition of Minas Nir, the battlefield is much more troublesome than expected.
The Sky City Oxo - Bird Shrine, a giant feathered serpent is entwined on the pyramid, a large group of pterosaurs are screaming in the air, even the most bloodthirsty and cruel red-winged rhinoceros is quiet at this time Come down and quietly appreciate the gifts of the ancient saints.
An untimely giant flying creature came from a distance. Its black body was covered with hard scales. The clouds compressed under its majesty, causing countless birds to startle.
The blessed feathered serpent spread its huge wings behind it, raised its snake-shaped head and roared at the dragon. Its membranes bulged high, entering an extremely tense fighting state.
This is a roar to defend its territory. The couatl will not allow a creature that threatens its dominance in this area.
But Minas Nir didn't even look at the feathered serpent, and rushed straight to the square next to the Bird Shrine.
The pterosaurs gradually dispersed, and even the fearless Rhythrohynchus chose to give in. Perhaps the dragon had disappeared in Lustria for tens of thousands of years, but this did not affect the identity of the hunter and the prey.
"Your Highness Minas Nir." The champion warrior stepped forward and said hello to the dragon.
Since the Emperor Dragon joined the battlefield, the original dilemma was quickly solved. A large number of elite rats were crushed to death with one blow, and the never-ending dragon's breath turned the jungle where the rats were hiding into a sea of fire.
It is no exaggeration to say that Minas Nir's role is comparable to that of an army of ten thousand people.
But unfortunately, its attitude towards the lizardmen is not very good. If Masnot had not tried to persuade him to stop it, the red-crowned skink, which only talked nonsense when it saw Minas Nir, would have been in the first place. Time was torn into pieces.
Minas Nir didn't care about Masno's etiquette. In its heart, Caledor and the others were like brats, no one was reliable, and they all had to take action themselves to ensure safety.
"The rat men have gone underground, and it is difficult to find signs of their activities on the surface." Lao Mi told the situation he had detected, and then roared at the feathered serpent, which was still noisy in the bird shrine, to tell it to shut up.
Lao Mi's roar had an effect, and the feathered snake's originally branched wings and skin gradually shrank, slowly retreating toward the rear.
Masnuo wiped a cold sweat. He was indeed an imperial dragon. This attitude of treating other people's homes as his own territory was exactly the same as that of the prince.
But this is not the time to make unreasonable associations and speak out his thoughts, "Your joining has reversed the situation in the battle, but I feel that this is definitely not the true power of the Plague Clan. Maybe this is just another ambush." "What are your thoughts
? ." Lao Mi gave the choice to Masnuo, which was a tacit understanding between the two races for thousands of years.
"Now is not the time to attack. We must figure out the direction of the Ratmen's underground network..."
"Sotek is thirsty for blood!" A voice came from not far away, and Tehenhoin twisted his legs after finishing the bloody sacrifice. , and kept spitting out forked letters from his mouth.
The Snake Letter Sword was still bleeding with blood and splashed on the ground, forming a blood ripple following the footsteps of the Snake God Prophet.
Minas Nir glared at the red-crowned Skink who interrupted the exchange, "Don't confuse the process of the war with some irrational words. Fanaticism cannot win!" "
But faith can win! This is the Sotek Sect. The reason why I can persist until now!" The snake god prophet is not afraid of this dragon whose eyes are bigger than it, and his tone is full of determination. "If superstition is the reason why you are alive today, no wonder the rats can let you huddle in the few remaining cities! It even takes ancient enemies to help you drive the rats out of the jungle." "The departure of the ancient
saints It is the fate of the children of the jungle, but Sotek is our future!" "
But you don't even know what Sotek is, why does he need to save you cold-blooded people!"
One lizard and one dragon began to speak. After a heated discussion, Minas Nir did not believe in the so-called faith. As a dragon deeply influenced by magic knowledge, he advocated reason and knowledge rather than relying on fanaticism to maintain strength and belief.
But it faced Tehenhoyne, a skink that was extremely fanatical even for a lizardman.
The mission of the snake god prophet is to fulfill Sotek's prophecy, and the arrival of Minas Nir will undoubtedly make this prophecy a step further, no matter how much the dragon denies it.
As the peacemaker, Masnow covered his forehead. When these two creatures met, there would definitely be a heated debate.
In terms of strength alone, Minas Nir could crush this skink to pieces without any pressure, but the special characteristics of the Snake God Prophet prevented the dragon from doing so.
A strange situation occurred between the skink and the dragon. The dragon hated the skink extremely, whether it was language or thoughts.
But Minas Nir's actions contributed to the fulfillment of Sotek's prophecy. After all, the third sacrifice died at its hands.
"You two, calm down. Our task now is to figure out the actions of the rats and make corresponding preparations." Masnow stopped between the two scaly creatures who were getting closer and closer, and kept trying to calm them down.
If he had followed his previous temper, he would have chopped Tehenhoin into mincemeat to calm Minas Nir's anger, but the current situation would not allow this.
The stopped Tehenhoin's frantic state calmed down a bit, and as the forked tongue continued to spit out, he explained, "The rats are preparing to fight a protracted war, digging the land of Lustria into a funnel, and digging tunnels When we go to the Sky City, the key attack location must be the hatching pool!"
The Snake God Prophet expressed the thoughts of the rat in one word. There is no one in the whole world who is better at killing rats than him. It can be said that as long as you see a piece of mouse hair, you can judge the physical condition of the owner, not to mention this kind of strategy that can be seen through at a glance.
Masno nodded in agreement, ignoring the resentful look in His Highness Minasnil's eyes after turning around, and said to Tehenhoin, "What do you think? We are not good at tunnel warfare at all." "
Squad The Slann Council is still reinforcing the great guardian. Taito Yikao predicted that the enemy will appear in Lustria. Our current strength cannot completely wipe out the rats in the south." Teheng at this
time Huo Ying acted extremely rationally, without any of the fanaticism he had when he first appeared. As a master tactician, accidental inspiration cannot lead to victory in a war.
Tehenhoyne points to one key figure.
"Imrik, he needs to come here, otherwise all the actions now are meaningless to the nearly infinite number of rats."
