Chapter 438: Arrogant Outsider
On the towering pedestal in this interview room sat the venerable matriarch Mareth, whose belly was visibly bulging from the imminent birth. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It was an honor to stand by her three daughters, Maya, Vilna, and Brissa the eldest daughter, who had just been elected as a high priestess.
Maya and Verna look like younger versions of their mother, slender and skinny with great power in them.
Brissa has no characteristics of this family.
By the standards of the Dark Elves, she was very strong, with bulging shoulders and hips.
Those who knew her knew that this size was nothing more than a faithful reflection of her temper; The slender physique probably couldn't withstand the violent temper of the new priest of the Du family.
"The heirs of Dinen and the dragon should be back soon," said Ryson, who is the father-in-waiting of the current family. "It can let us know if the time has come to attack."
To be precise, this underground world is a feminist world, where the status of men is very low, and women are in control.
The main reason is that the spider goddess is a woman.
"We'll leave as soon as the clock shows early in the morning!" Brissa yelled at him in her deep, sharp voice.
She turned to her mother and smiled expectantly, hoping to be complimented for letting the man know his status.
"The baby is going to be born tonight," Mareth's biological mother said to her anxious husband. "No matter what news Dinen and the dragon's heirs bring back, we must go."
"That would be a boy," Brissa whispered, undisguised disappointment, "the eleventh living son of the Duden family." ”
"Sacrifice to Goddess Rose." Zaknavi interjected, he was the former acolyte of the family, and now he held the important position of chief of martial arts.
The skilled Dark Elf warrior seemed to be interested in the so-called sacrifice, as did the eldest son, Nova, who stood beside Zack.
Novan was the eldest son in the family, and he didn't want anyone else in the family to compete with him except for Dining.
"According to tradition," Brissa said angrily, her red eyes seeming to glow. "Help us win!"
Ryssen shifted his posture restlessly.
"Mistress Mareth," he said boldly, "you should know very well the pain of childbirth, and whether it will distract you—"
"How dare you question the mistress?" Brissa roared piercingly, and without hesitation, she reached for the snake-headed whip wrapped around her waist.
Mistress Marlies held out a hand to stop her.
"Just fight," the mistress said to the tax collector. "Let the women of the clan take care of the important matters in this battle."
Ryssen's body shook, his gaze lowered.
Wu Mo and Dine Ning came to the magic-made fence that surrounded the two low stalagmite towers of the Duden family, and inside the enclosure was the compound of the Duden family.
The enclosure is made of the world's hardest adamantite gold, adorned with hundreds of armed spiders, and each statue has deadly spells and enchantments.
The majestic gates of the Duden family were the envy of many other families, but after witnessing the magnificent architecture of the mushroom umbrellas, Dineen was disappointed to see the shabby sight of his own home.
His home looked very ordinary, even somewhat bare; The second floor of the Mithril and Adamantite Alloy balcony was an exception, as it was reserved for the nobility of the family.
Each balustrade on the balcony is carved with thousands of carvings, all of which make up a huge work of art.
The Duden family differs from the rest of Morsoblay in that most of their buildings are located in a cave, rather than isolated among towering stone pillars.
Although this design is easy to defend and difficult to attack, Dineen still can't help but hope that his home can be more gorgeous.
An excited soldier quickly opened the door to welcome the arrival of the second son.
Without saying a word, Dineen walked past him and walked briskly into the compound, realizing that hundreds of curious eyes were focused on him.
Wu Mo followed behind Di Ning, he didn't speak, but his eyes kept paying attention to the situation around him, he was not Di Ning, and he didn't care about those so-called rules.
Not to mention Mareth's mother, even if it was the spider goddess, he didn't pay attention to it, so his frivolity and boldness angered many people, especially Brisha, the crazy woman-like guy.
The soldiers and slaves alike knew that Dineh's mission tonight was related to the upcoming battle.
There are no stairs leading to the second floor where the Duden family's silver balcony is located.
This design was also planned so that the nobles would not be harassed by slaves and commoners in their homes.
The nobility of the Dark Elves does not need ladders, and their innate ability has been specially evolved to give them the ability to clear the void.
At the blink of a thought, Dineen floated easily and landed on the balcony.
Wu Mo was different from him, although he said that he was now a dark elf, but he didn't understand this, but he jumped lightly, and still easily reached the balcony.
Not even he used his wings.
The terrifying bouncing power that Jiuyang Divine Skill brought him, this height and distance was nothing at all.
Dinen scurried through the archway and into the corridor, where a faint demonic fire was faintly lit, allowing normal vision to work without interfering with the use of night vision.
The ornate brass door at the end of the hallway marked his destination, where he paused for a moment, waiting for his eyes to adjust back to the infrared spectrum.
The room behind the door is not the same as the hallway, there is no lighting.
This is the hearing room of the high priestess, the majestic shrine of the Duden family.
The Dark Elves' priest's room, according to the tradition of Queen Spider God, is a place where no light is allowed.
When Dinen felt that he was ready, he pushed the door open, squeezed through the two surprised female guards without hesitation, and boldly walked directly to the mistress.
The three daughters of the family all squinted their eyes and glared at their bold and rampant brother.
Break in without waiting for permission! He knew what they were thinking.
Could it be that he is going to sacrifice tonight?!
As much as Dineen likes to test the limits of his behavior as an inferior male, he can't ignore the menace of Vilna, Maya, and Brissa with their dancing-like grace.
Not only were they taller than Dineen, but they had spent their entire lives practicing the use of priesthood's evil powers and weapons.
The serpent's whip, which had been extended by the priest's mana, began to stir excitedly, anticipating the punishment that was about to fall.
The grip of the snake's head whip is made of very simple pure gold, but the body and head of the whip are live vipers.
Brissa danced and shoved with the six snake whips, wrapping herself in knots along her belt.
Brissa has always been the quickest to punish.
However, the malady seems to appreciate Dinein's swagger.
The second son knew his place in the eyes of his master, and he was not afraid to carry out her orders without the slightest hesitation.
