Chapter 1198: The Ritual Begins

Chapter 1198: The Sacrifice Begins

Judging from the momentum, Artoria's team is more like a king on patrol.

"Brother, come on."

Lena's little hand, gently emerging from my palm, stepped back and said to me encouragingly.

What kind of oil do you add, do you think that my brother and I will become very frustrated in front of Artoria now? Uh-huh.

I'm sorry, I'm bragging, it's frustrating, but in terms of personality charm, I really can't compare with Artoria, and at this time I can only cheat with the protagonist's aura......

Nani, Artoria also have a protagonist aura?!

Absolutely, I am desperate for this ruthless world that has to represent two different races in a secret battle since they are a very good couple!

Originally, if Artoria and I were not husband and wife, it should be like two track and field athletes in the sprint section, keeping a clear distance, pulling the banner of friendship first and competition second, secretly competing with each other, and it is bound to compete with each other at a 360-degree angle from the south to the north of the universe.

Unfortunately, this is just an assumption, Artoria and I are a couple with a good relationship.

As a result, the soldiers of the two tribes, who were originally gearing up and staring at each other like red-eyed bullfights, with rough air spraying in their nostrils, were embarrassed to find that with the people they wanted to protect, they walked together, and the two teams were also wrong.

What could be more embarrassing than in the final sprint of the 100-meter race, when I was about to fight to the death, but the race suddenly announced that it would become a two-person three-legged cooperation, and the two people who were originally going to compete for the first place were tied up to move forward together, one was prosperous and the other was lost, which is even more embarrassing?

At least for now, the soldiers of the two clans have not been found for the time being, and can only silently accept this most embarrassing setting.

Fortunately, the camp is now more than just the Alliance and the Jīng Spirit races, although the biggest competitors have become teammates, making them feel like they have punched the air, but there are also orcs, the Heradik race, at least let them see the majesty of our race.

Oh, I almost forgot about it, and the dwarves...... Dwarven ...... Forget it.

"Good morning, Artoria."

I'm starting to thank the fact that the two of us are husband and wife, so that I don't have to use too formal words and don't look obtrusive.

"Good morning."

Dressed in a blue suede coat, the front god with a slight gap open, faintly revealing the luster of silver armor, revealing a graceful and luxurious momentum, such a majestic Artoria, who almost dared not look up at him, was looking me up and down with a smile, and the gold on her forehead was turning vigorously.

"Is the cloak a fitting cloak from Veras?"

"How do you know?" I was amazed at Artoria's acuteness.

"To be able to make such a suitable garment, and to have such a craft, Veraise is the most probable, isn't it?"

Artoria smiled and gently lifted her little hand, which was in charge of hundreds of millions of lives of the entire jīng spirit clan, but made people feel extraordinarily delicate, in front of me.

"It's really discerning, my NV King Xià."

Holding Artoria's little hand, her eyes inadvertently fell on Beya behind her.

Oops, I'm really sorry, I'm too short, I didn't see it for a while, but our little princess Beya is actually in front of you.

Casting such a teasing gaze at the other party, I originally thought that this little princess Jīng, who was dressed beautifully, would immediately burst into anger, even if it wasn't, she had to take three deep breaths and puff up her small mouth high.

Unexpectedly, she was staring at herself with wide eyes, as if she had not even noticed the malicious gaze I had just had.

Could it be ...... Was it that I was given an M-by how handsome I looked ten times better today?

Although I really want to think so, but this makes people envious and jealous of the jīng spirit clan, the most important thing is the handsome man and the beautiful nv, just in this jīng spirit team, just pull out a male spirit, you can compare yourself, so this kind of thinking is better to dispel it as soon as possible.

The thing that surprised this girl is worth pondering.

Phew, this stupid Wu, it's disgusting to look serious, and I keep saying that I'm pretending to be mature, hypocritical, and hypocritical stupid!!

At this time, Bei Ya was scolding in her heart, and she felt that she was very wronged.

Why is this guy pretending to be okay, I learn from Sister Aalto, but I have to be ridiculed by a short girl in his head, obviously he is a stupid person and so arrogant.

Hmph, it's just that it's better to dress, usually it's a dog, but now it's just a human dog, compared with Sister Aalto, it's still a big difference between the world and the world.

Beya puffed out her pretty face, which had become red and hot because of her anger, and her big watery eyes were staring viciously at the wide back of the person walking in front all the way.

At least, in the eyes of others.

After greeting Elder Lyman, the group, which had nearly doubled in size, attracted more attention on the road, and most of their eyes fell on me and Artoria who were holding hands and walking in the middle.

"Van has become more presentable." Artoria turned her face sideways and nodded lightly to the stares who were looking at her, but the words were spoken to me.

"Huh?"

I followed my gaze a little confused, and as far as Artoria could see, everyone lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at her, including the stupid adventurers who often laughed and said "even if King Jīng Ling NV came" after drinking high in the bar.

There's a bit of a domineering side leak, my jīng spirit wife.

"I don't usually see it, but as I guessed, he will definitely be a good leader."

After greeting the cheering crowd, Artoria turned back to me and smiled with a dazzling smile that made me want to squint.

Although I can't usually see it...... Is it? It felt like Artoria was inadvertently spitting out.

"There's no way, if it comes to the critical moment, it's not good to do it, but it's not worthy of an excellent wife like you."

Pursed his face, he was praised by Artoria like this (complaining?) I'm a little embarrassed.

"Don't worry, as long as you do what you think is right, no matter when, I will be by your side, isn't it agreed? If it is the sword that pierces through the darkness, then I will be your shield, and the sword will not break, and the shield will not break. ”

The other delicate little hand, covering the back of my palm, was tightly wrapped by the two small hands, and gently turned to the side, and looked solemnly at Artoria, whose blue eyes were full of strong will, and her tone was also firm and confident.

"I believe that as long as the husband and wife work together, there are no obstacles in this world that cannot be broken through."

"When you say this, I want to challenge the Three Demon Gods with confidence now."

I looked at Artoria with admiration as bright as the sun, she was such a person who made people feel that as long as she was there, no matter what she wanted to do, the road ahead would be full of light and confidence. "This won't work, I won't accompany Fan to make a fool, and I will tie Fan back firmly." Artoria skimmed her pretty face to the other side, frowned as if in awkwardness, closed her eyes, and said loudly.

Oh oh oh, I didn't expect this guy to make such a cute move, it's really cute.

Fortunately, when Artoria and I were whispering, the surrounding soldiers guarded the encirclement very cleverly, so that it was difficult for people standing outside to see the expressions and conversations between me and Artoria, otherwise I, as a husband, would regret crying and wetting the pillow tonight.

Of course, it's not that no one can see it at all, for example, the little girl Beya, who has been throwing a terrifying gaze from behind, widened her eyes, and her two sharp and cute jīng spirit ears were erected, with a surprised gesture of suddenly being shocked by 9999 points.

In the past, he would not believe that the mature and majestic sister Aalto, whom he admired, would ...... would reveal such a small ...... so naturally The demeanor of the little NV people.

If the jīng spirits who admired Aalto's sister saw this, would they cry or laugh?

"Speaking of which, the fox people and werewolves are ...... Oh, and here it is. ”

Artoria and I stopped the line and looked out of the crowd out of the way to the smoke in the distance.

Although it is far away, it is impossible to distinguish which clan is the team, but my heart is very bright, and it is the breath of that pretty fox.

Sure enough, after a while, the faint figure of the fox clan appeared in sight, and the fox clan came over with them.

As a medium-sized tribe, the size and strength of the fox clan naturally cannot be compared with the alliance jīng spirit and the dwarf clan, although this is not a big deal, we will not put on a strong attitude at the negotiation table because of this, but the other party also has the self-esteem of the other party, and among the allies, they are the weakest, and anyone will feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, when the alliance and the fox and werewolf clans formed an alliance, the two old neighbors, the fox and the werewolf, seemed to hug each other in private, and had a more intimate offensive and defensive alliance relationship.

Together, the two races have a population of millions, although it is still very weak compared to the number of jīng spirits and alliances in the number of billions, but in the bitter cold land of Harogas, the races that can reproduce cannot be judged by the number alone, for example, one adventurer can be produced in a thousand people in the alliance, maybe one out of a hundred people of the fox race and werewolf tribe will become one, and even if they are also civilians, they must be stronger and more brave on the side of Harogas.

The best example is the barbarians, as the homeland of the barbarians, the number of barbarians in Harogas is only millions, but, for example, if the Jīng spirit clan wants to occupy the city of Harogas for any reason, then, even with Artoria in charge, they will face a bitter battle that they may not be able to win.

Although there is an element of time and place, it is impossible to deny the quality and quantity of warriors who come out of that bitter cold land, although the fox and werewolf races do not have the natural strong bodies of the barbarians, but they have the most agile warriors and the most cunning mages.

Sure enough, the warriors of the werewolf clan and the fox clan were also together, and although there were only fifty or sixty of them combined, they were not tall in terms of their bodies, but they had a fierce temperament that was deeply hidden and could not be detected by ordinary people.

Little Fox, Elder Mamaga and Chris, the three of them took the lead, side by side.

In fact, I haven't thought about the main reason why Elder Mamaga opposed me and the little fox in the first place, and I am afraid that she wants the little fox and Chris to walk together and make the relationship between the two clans closer.

It's a pity that she has never been the kind of leader who will do anything for the sake of the end, and the little fox and Chris can't do what she wants, Chris is in love with Anya, and the innate infatuation of the sky fox is destined to make Mamaga even if she has this idea, it is just pure YY, and has nothing to do with any real person events.

"You scoundrel, what are you doing?"

When he came back to his senses, he saw the little fox glaring at him fiercely.

It turns out that every time I meet with the little fox, there is an 80% chance of triggering her to show such a fierce staring expression, but I know her character very well, and I feel that this kind of arrogant posture made in order to hide her inner shyness and joy is really cute, so I never planned to protest about it, if one day, this little fox suddenly came up delicately, softly talking, and flattering, I would wonder if she had some kind of ulterior motive.

"Humph!!"

The afterglow seemed to sneak a glimpse of me and Artoria holding hands, and the little fox immediately let out a cold snort, wagged its fox tail, and before I could speak, turned its head and greeted the others.

It's excessive.

Seeing the way I pouted, the smirking prince probably remembered him and Anya, and patted me on the shoulder with affection, with the feeling that I was also a fallen person at the end of the world.

Go, go, who's the same as you, my little fox is just tsundere.

On the other side, he held back his momentum and wanted to give the orc warriors a little "Yan looked at the alliance and jīng spirit soldiers, and they were also dumbfounded.

It's like another two-person three-legged player who has been caught up, patted his shoulder, gave a thumbs up and smiled heartily: "Hey, comrade-in-arms, don't you want to make a shot?" ”

The result is a four-man five-legged team.

The soldiers of the fox and werewolf clans are also dumbfounded, and they are planning to leak it domineeringly, so that these guys know that although our number is small, but the quality is high, and we are not the opponents who want to cook and can cook if you want.

Immediately behind the fox and wolf clans, the team of the Heradic clan arrived, and the lineup of all mages suddenly set off the momentum, at least in the eyes of the common people, mages should be the most wise and noble profession, so they also looked at the Heradic clan with special awe.

It feels like dozens of white bones jīng, and the differential treatment of hundreds of migrant workers walking together, which makes the soldiers feel particularly uncomfortable, fortunately, these mages are also led by the scheming, innocent little princess of the Heradik tribe, without the slightest hesitation to join this multi-person n-foot competition.

Only the dwarves remained.

The figures of dwarf winter melons appeared in their minds, and these people couldn't help but shrug their shoulders in disappointment, completely giving up the idea of competition in their hearts.

In the last section, there are dozens of dwarf winter melons, so I don't need to say much, just think of it as a garlic leaf in the scallion noodles and a piece of holy NV fruit next to the sauce steak.

I complained secretly, looked up, and finally ushered in the road sign into the new district.

From here, civilians and adventurers are separated, from two different passages, straight through half of the new district, to the huge Rogge Square that can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people.

Think about the previous God's Birthday, the streets were full of people, tens of thousands of people, or even more than 100,000 people crowded a place, you would never think of it, and you were not happy to encounter it, in order not to squeeze the civilians, the adventurers had to stage the eaves and walls, on the trees, on the roofs, everywhere, so that on the morning of the God's Day, standing on the ground, you can see a series of black shadows like a flock of crows passing overhead.

Akara remembers this detail and it is great to have two passages set up.

When I came here, the eyes around me were about to drop sharply, which made me breathe a sigh of relief.

Lena, Beya, Little Fox, and Chris all showed a serious look on their faces, relaxed a little, and stepped forward without any scruples.

"Tut-tut, look at you scoundrel, you look arrogant."

The little fox immediately looked himself up and down eagerly, and then said the words that had been brewed a long time ago.

Beya nodded desperately in agreement.

"Nonsense, don't you think I'm getting handsome?" I condescendingly glared at the two visionless NV people, shaking the white robes on my body.

"The change from a worm to a chrysalis." The little fox took a closer look at me and made up his mind.

"It's a subtle change."

I really can't tell whether the insect is cuter or the insect chrysalis is more handsome, so I can only look confused.

"But sooner or later, it will break out of the chrysalis and become a beautiful butterfly."

"You must be so naïve as to think that anyone who bears a chrysalis can become a butterfly." The little fox looked disdainful.

"That's right, that's right, you stupid, just obediently become a frog." Beya chimed in.

"You're stupid, stupid came out of the chrysalis, go back to the river and freeze the frogs!!" I smacked my knife mercilessly on Beya's head.

"Yes, Beya, it's impossible for a frog, at least a moth." The erudite Tia kindly helped the stupid Princess Jīng Ling popularize insect knowledge on the side.

Me: "......"

While the moth was the right choice, your selfless answer has broken my heart deeply, Tia.

"Moths to the fire...... That's a very dazzling kind of existence, isn't it, brother? "Lena's small, weak and boneless hand unconsciously wrapped around my other arm.

"Yes, in the last moments of death, it shines beautifully."

"Can it only shine when you die? When you are alive, you are an obscure fool who is easily attracted by the firelight? Is this me? ”

In the unexpected, I got tangled.

During the conversation, following the flow of people, we finally came to Rogge Square, perhaps calling it [New Rogge Square].

It really reminds me of [New Rogue Bar] right away, so there won't be any problems......

Although it was not the first time I saw it, I was still shocked.

The structure resembles the Colosseum in ancient Rome, and the central square, which covers an area of tens of thousands of square meters, is surrounded by a patchwork of circular high platforms, and from the outside, Rogge Square is several times larger than the original world's largest football stadium.

Around the platform, there are hundreds of stone pillars neatly erected, and each stone pillar has different patterns and patterns carved on it, which is based on my whim, so that each village, each race, will represent their patterns engraved on the stone pillars, and the result is this number.

The totem stone pillars, which have inherited the vicissitudes of history of each village, tribe, and even race, stand tall around the square in a mysterious magic array arrangement, exuding an ancient atmosphere from above, making this newly built square seem to suddenly have thousands of years of historical precipitation, and become more solemn and vast.

Every qiē in the square relied on the calloused hands of the Rogge civilians and their broad and solid shoulders, built up little by little, without the crystallization of science and technology, and did not rely on the power of magic.

This is an artistic miracle like a pyramid and the Great Wall.

At that time, I also asked Akara, why not use the power of an adventurer? In this way, you can save 10 times the time and labor.

Akara just smiled indifferently and said to me, "If you do that, will the camp people remember whose sweat was shed on it?" ”

At that time, Akara taught me a new truth, sometimes, the process and the result are not the most important, but the meaning of the representation.

"Brother, what are you doing, sit down quickly."

When I came back to my senses, I realized that the team had reached the front row of the square, in short, the legendary leader's seat.

Everyone else was already seated.

"This kid is stupid, hahaha."

There was an annoying voice from behind, and when I looked back, it was an old drunkard who had arrived first.

Originally, as the elders of the alliance, she and Farah should also come with the team, but these two guys were already notorious and were afraid of losing the face of the alliance, so they didn't force them to follow together.

"How about a five-day, four-night trip to the lumberyard?"

I glared back at her viciously, and sure enough, the drunkard immediately cried out with his head in his hands.

It seems that at least during the period when she took power in place of Akara, she was able to firmly grasp the weaknesses of this old NV person, so that she did not dare to make mistakes.

The high platform, which can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people, is already more than half full, and there is a steady stream of people pouring in from hundreds of entrances in all directions.

After about half an hour, the sky was already bright, and the first rays of sunlight finally crossed the hundreds of meters high platform rising above the ground, and was thrown overhead into the central square.

As if announcing something, everyone's eyes were attracted by this wisp of gold-brilliance, and the originally noisy square gradually became quiet.

It was a pair of eyes that were looking forward to something.

Looking at the entrance, there are very few entrants, and unlike the original world's habit of grinding, the hard-working people in the camp will never be late for no reason on such a heavy festival, and would rather come an hour or two early.

Ahem, it looks like it's ready to start.

In the middle seat of the entire square, I felt a hot sensation from under my buttocks, and I shifted uneasily, glancing at Artoria sitting on the left, and Kane on the right, and felt that it was almost time.

At this time, just stand up and shout to start, because the previous God's Birthday was all watched as an ordinary adventurer, and I was a little m-confused about the next process.

"Wu, it's your turn to appear and give a speech." Kane, next to me, winked at me.

"Didn't I sue you yesterday?"

I suddenly cried with a sad face, the memory of yesterday...... There are no more.

"That's right, that's right, hurry up, you can't lose the face of the alliance." The old drunkard and the old man Farrah were on the side, nodding in a matter-of-fact manner.

Shut up, you who have lost the most face to the alliance are not qualified to say this.

Do you still want to give a speech on stage? Ah, when I used to watch the God's Birthday ceremony, why didn't I have this memory? It's all right to start straight away, it's all right to go straight to the rituals and start singing the hymns, right, you're definitely fooling me, right?!

"Fan, come on."

I was about to stand up and accuse these guys who were afraid of the world, but a certain echo from the side would make me paralyzed.

Always able to push me into the water at critical moments, worthy of my king's wife, Artoria.

As a result, as if to catch a duck on the shelf, I was taken outside the square by the soldiers.

Directly ahead, there is a stately passage paved with marble, from which you can enter directly to the central square.

The sacrificial procession, which had already been ready to go, had been neatly arranged, and standing in the center of the sacrificial procession, a beautiful young man in a white holy robe was constantly peeking at himself with a pure and innocent gaze full of curiosity......

As if to say, Elder, would you like to sing a song too?

The weather has suddenly cooled down in the past few days, and one accidentally got sick and dizzy, and just caught up with 7000 words to make up, it's really unlucky, woo~~
