Chapter 147: Infighting
Kratos only felt a chill on the back of his hand, and quickly raised his hand, and then saw that there was an extra brand on the back of his hand in the shape of a hunting dog, which contained extremely special fluctuations, which obviously could not be imitated.
"Discipleship qualifications. ”
After the old man said these words in a weak voice, he closed his eyes directly, and his breath weakened as if he were a dead man.
Valen, Elise, and Giles all glanced at each other, their eyes were full of irrepressible secret joy, and after they nodded in greeting, they hurriedly pushed out of the main hall.
It wasn't until the door was closed that Elise couldn't help but speak: "The hound totem, the symbol of discipleship's qualifications, this time we will definitely receive a great reward." ”
Giles then said: "This is also Valen's decision, and he also took the initiative to take out the precious Nymph oil, and when the time comes, Lord Cadmus will reward it, and of course Varen will share the greatest benefit." ”
Valen was also smiling at this time, he knew that the two companions were chasing him at this time, but they wanted to make up for the offense of questioning their decision-making before.
Although he has always been the leader of this trio, Giles and Elise are both disciples of equal status, and although their strength is not as good as their own, they are not much inferior.
Once there is a conflict of interest, a conflict will immediately form, and this time it took 100 faith crystals, and when the two did not raise doubts on the spot, Valen knew that there must be a conspiracy in it.
If this human slave does not have the qualifications to be a disciple, then Elise and Giles will immediately take the opportunity to attack, completely deprive Valen of his interests, and step on him to strive for more benefits.
Even if the final identification was successful, the two immediately pushed the boat downstream, touting Valen's correct decision, and at the same time sharing the reward from above without being shy about it.
In the Divine Cult, everyone who wants to be on top must trample on the bones of countless people. Coupled with the approaching War of Faith, everyone began to do whatever it took to survive the brutal battlefield and step into the supreme realm of the gods.
Valen's heart was clear, and while he secretly sneered, he was silent on the surface, and just as he was about to exchange the credit for the reward he had received, several fierce momentum pierced through.
"Valen, I heard that you just returned to the Divine Sect and went directly to this missionary temple where birds don't, I expected that there must be something strange in it, but I didn't expect you to get a human slave with disciple qualifications, which is really a great merit at this time. ”
Hearing this voice, Valen's face changed, and his right hand had involuntarily received it behind his back, and a delicate battle flag had been tightly held in his hand at some point.
"Rodney!"
Valen's tone was cold, and he looked at a burly man in front of him, almost gritting his teeth.
Elise and Giles beside him also looked like they were facing a great enemy, and their battle intent condensed into substance, colliding with a sharp sonorous sound in the air.
Kratos saw the arrogance of the comer, and his heart moved, and he took a few steps back without a trace, and watched the upcoming conflict with a cold eye.
"Rodney, what are you doing here. ”
"Hmph, Valen, what qualifications do you have to question my actions!" The burly man known as Rodney snorted coldly and said unceremoniously, "I don't have to talk nonsense with you, you came to the missionary temple with a lowly human slave, did you find a highly qualified believer?" ”
After saying that, Rodney didn't wait for Valen to answer, his eyes immediately locked on Kratos's body, and after quickly scanning up and down, he finally landed on the back of his right hand.
"The hound's totem actually has the qualifications of a disciple. ”
The look of surprise on Rodney's face flashed for a moment, and then he was replaced by a hideous look, he took a step forward, grabbed his hand directly at Kratos, and at the same time roared arrogantly: "We Hercules will want this person, and the one who stands in my way will die!"
"You dare!"
Valen roared angrily, and the battle flag that had already been pinched in his hand immediately unfolded, and the infinite battle intent condensed into a sharp edge, stabbing towards Rodney's vital point, this blow was chilling, revealing his bold killing intent.
Just as the two were about to collide together, the door of the originally closed missionary temple burst open, and a decaying, old voice came from inside.
"In front of the temple gate, who dares to offend the glory of the god of war......"
After this soft and lifeless voice came out, everyone's faces turned to the side, among them, Valen and Rodney's faces were even more bloodshot and red, and their powerful momentum was even more overwhelming, and they all shook their bodies and took two or three steps back, looking extremely uncomfortable.
After this abrupt change, the originally radical atmosphere on the scene immediately became heavy, and the two sides looked at each other clearly, but no one dared to do it again.
Rodney threw a vicious look into the temple of the black hole, pointed his hand unceremoniously at Valen, and said loudly: "Whoever knows each other, hand him over to me, otherwise...... Hum. ”
Rodney's words were very arrogant, but at this time they gave people a sense of inwardness. The two sides have long been separated from two hostile camps, incompatible with each other, and there are countless conflicts, and the words of this threat are not painful at all.
But no matter how arrogant Rodney was, he didn't dare to do anything at the door of the missionary temple again. Originally, in his eyes, the missionary priest was just a rotten old ghost waiting to die, but he didn't expect it to be hidden so deeply, just a reprimand, his supernatural powers were invalid, and his qi and blood were so surging that blood almost spurted out of his mouth.
Just when the two sides were at a stalemate, a low-pitched, obscene-looking middle-aged man next to Rodney suddenly came to his side and whispered something, and Rodney's eyes were full of brilliance after hearing this, and then he suddenly raised his head, looked over Valen, and fell directly on Kratos.
"You're the slave who was identified as a disciple?"
Kratos saw that Rodney suddenly shifted the target to himself, and his heart immediately guessed his intentions, and there was no obvious change in expression on his face, just nodded silently.
"Very good, I am a disciple of the Hercules Society, Rodney, if you join the Hercules Society, I will immediately infuse you with qi and blood to improve your strength, and even help you comprehend the mysteries of supernatural powers. ”
Rodney actually took the curved route of saving the country, directly aimed at Kratos, and tempted with benefits, once he nodded and agreed, in front of the missionary priest, Valen did not dare to violently stop him.
Elise was the first to be impatient, and scolded in a coquettish voice: "Rodney, people are hard for us to find, how can you snatch the past in a few words." ”
Rodney smiled gloomily and said, "The identity of a disciple is a hundred times more noble than that of a human slave, or even an ordinary believer, even the Lord Priest cannot deprive a disciple of his freedom and will at will, do you think that he can have more power than the Lord Lord of the Lord Priest?"
Elise couldn't help but froze, wanting to say something but not knowing how to refute it, her eyes involuntarily skimmed towards the dim temple, and her original fierce momentum had weakened.
Rodney ignored the speechless Elise, and continued to bewitch Kratos: "I don't know, our Hercules Society has helped everyone to comprehend Hercules' supernatural powers, and their power is condensed to the extreme, and they can transform into the body of an ancient giant, and their strength is invincible and crush everything. ”
As if feeling that it was not tempting enough, Rodney added: "Hercules is the most powerful god under the command of the god of war, after the fall in the ancient war, he has not returned to the godhood, as long as he comprehends the power of Hercules, he will have the opportunity to become a new Hercules, bathed in the divine light of Olympus." ”
The gods are the beings that all mortals fear and desire, and being able to become a member of the gods is a temptation that no human being can refuse.
Hearing Rodney's bewitchment, Valen's face became extremely ugly, although he knew that the other party was obviously lying and cajoling, but maybe the lowly human slave would be deceived by this despicable lie, and finally throw himself into the other party's camp, so that all his efforts would be in vain.
Thinking of this, Valen could no longer remain silent, and he spoke loudly, trying to interrupt Kratos' inner hesitation.
"Kratos, the god of war is the greatest being, don't you want to stand under the banner of the god of war and believe in Hercules instead?"
After hearing Valen's words, Kratos' expression was slightly stunned, and he couldn't help but look at the huge statue in the Cult, and his eyes gradually flashed with a light that represented piety.
The god of war is the true supreme ruler of the Macedonian kingdom, and everyone must be sincerely subservient to the banner of the god of war, even Hercules must not be offended.
This kind of sincerity has long been rooted in the blood of every human being, and ordinary human beings cannot have the psychology of disobedience at all, and can only contribute their life's beliefs with trepidation.
Valen raised the banner of the God of War at this time, and his means were indeed very clever, as long as he was an ordinary believer, he would not be easily tempted by interests, thus betraying his belief in the God of War.
Because mortals have so little ambition and desire that they simply can't consider the interests of the god of war with their own.
The greater the power and the wider the knowledge, the greater the ambition and selfishness. How can a mortal who has been enslaved all his life have the ambition to covet the throne.
Rodney's face darkened when he saw Kratos' pretended expression, and he knew that it was useless for him to make any more vague promises, and that this lowly human slave could not understand his ambitions at all.
"Hmph, lowly human slave, one day you will pay for your stupidity!"
Rodney snorted coldly, the qi and blood in his body surged, and the whole person rushed to the sky, and several followers beside him also followed one after another when they saw this, and then the group of people quickly disappeared from sight.
Seeing that Rodney was finally willing to give up and leave, Valen was also secretly relieved in his heart. Since the last war of faith, taking advantage of the predicament that seventy or eighty percent of his strong men were killed in battle and suffered heavy losses, Hercules took advantage of the situation to rise, and with the power and identity of the apostles, he has attracted many ambitious disciples, and the established Hercules Society is even more prosperous, competing with Cadmus and a group of disciples who uphold the belief in the god of war.
