Chapter 259: Ten Thousand Snake Swamp II
Wu Wei hid steadily in the tree, shouted in the direction of the werewolf captain's shout, and saw a lizardman jumping from a tree, he was dark green, wearing a leather coat, and carrying a longbow on his back.
The werewolf captain breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the lizardman jumping out, and shouted backwards, "It's okay, it's my own people." ”
When the alarm was lifted, the werewolves breathed a sigh of relief, and their team traveled thousands of miles to carry fresh sea fish from the sea, just to be able to sacrifice these to the dragon god at the festival at noon today, so as to exchange some divine liquid for the tribe. The tribe in which these werewolves are located is only a medium-sized tribe, often squeezed out by the surrounding large tribes, and in the past few festivals, there have been cases where the sacrifices were taken away by a nearby large tribe, so they have been thinking all the way, seeing that they are about to reach the tribe, and they don't want to make a mistake.
The werewolf captain turned to the lizardmen who walked by, "Habas, why are you here?" Don't have to warn the Kosko tribe anymore? ”
The lizardman Hasbas shook the mud under his feet and said, "Virgil, you don't need to worry about this anymore, the news just received that they got a sacrifice that will definitely satisfy the dragon god, so they won't take a fancy to this little thing of our tribe." ”
"Oh yes, that's good news, what did the Kirsk tribe get? Did you catch a few more humans? Virgil asked.
Hamas shook his head with a mysterious expression and said, "The sacrifices he received are much better than those of humans." ”
Virgil looked incredulous and asked, "It can't be a snowman, right?" They have long been hiding on the top of the snowy mountain and refusing to come down. ”
Habas said mockingly, "Your barren imagination can do this, let me tell you, they have caught a female elf." ”
Wu Wei finally waited for a valuable conversation, and under the full force of his perception, he found that there was a large tribe 6 kilometers away from here, but it was too far away to find out clearly.
And when the werewolf Virgil heard that the people of the Kesco tribe had caught the elves, he couldn't believe his ears and asked loudly, "Did they sneak into the elven canyon?" The elves have not been in this swamp for hundreds of years. ”
Hubas shook his head and said, "No matter how bold they are, they don't dare to catch the elves anywhere, they are just lucky, the team met a lost elven while patrolling." Ay! When will this kind of good fortune befall me? ”
Virgil chimed in: "Yes, their tribe will definitely get a large amount of divine liquid this time. I don't know if we have a chance to steal people out. ”
"They weren't stupid, they sent people to the festival lake before the news spread," Habas said. ”
Virgil sighed and said, "Let's go back to the camp first, pack up and set off, it's better to sacrifice the tribute before them, otherwise there is a good chance that we will not get anything." ”
"They will definitely be in the back row, and only after the dragon gods have eaten the garbage of our sacrifice can the preciousness of their sacrifice be revealed." ”
Virgil gave the order, and all the werewolves carried their buckets and continued on their way, but by this time they had lost their previous excitement.
Wu Wei didn't know where the festival lake was, but since they had made Evely as a sacrifice, her life would not be in danger until the sacrifice. Wu Wei followed behind this group of werewolves, preparing to follow them to find the festival lake, and then trying to find a way to save people.
After these werewolves returned to the tribe, they hurried on the road after a simple repair, and with them were more than a hundred lizardmen, their patriarch and shaman had already been waiting at the festival lake, Wu Wei quietly followed behind them, walking towards the depths of the swamp.
Along the way, they met several teams rushing to the festival, they didn't speak to each other, silently carrying the sacrifices they had worked so hard to prepare, only hoping to get the favor of the dragon god.
After about 20 kilometers, the procession passes through a twisted forest, and the view becomes wider, surrounded by a large lake, more than 3 kilometers in diameter, in which the water is calm and undisturbed, indicating that there is no life in it. There is a small island in the center of the lake, about 500 meters in diameter, and there is a huge hole in the center of the island that slopes downward, more than 30 meters in diameter, and it is dark and you can't see anything inside.
At this time, the shore of the lake was already full of swamp creatures, and the cumulative number had exceeded 100,000, and they lined up in a neat line according to their respective tribes, and placed their sacrifices at the front of their ranks, these sacrifices were packed in boxes or cages, and there were also tribes like Wu Wei's followers, which were placed in buckets, but no matter what was used, the outside was covered with a large dark green net, and it was impossible to see what was inside.
Wu Wei hid in a big tree on the shore of the lake, he knew that the dragon god was hidden in the cave of the island in the middle of the lake, and he didn't dare to use his perception to investigate, so he could only wait for the opportunity to move and rescue Evely when he saw her.
Wu Wei was anxious waiting on the tree, but there was still no sign of the festival starting, and many sacrificial teams felt that they had found their place, no one quarreled over the position, and although there were more than 100,000 people on the shore of the entire lake, there was silence.
Wu Wei waited for another long time, and finally when the sun rose overhead, there was a change. A dragon's groan came from the caverns of the island in the middle of the lake, and all the swamp tribes on the shore who had participated in the sacrifice fell to their knees. With the sound of squeezing the branches of the earth and stones, the hydra slowly appeared at the mouth of the hole in the middle of the lake.
Although Wu Wei was already mentally prepared, he couldn't help but gasp when he saw the true body of the hydra, the size of this hydra was too big. Wu Wei had seen the golden dragon and the bone dragon before, their largest body was only more than 30 meters, and if the hydra in front of him straightened his body, it would be at least 80 meters, and when he raised his nine heads, his body length was also more than 50 meters. His whole body was dark red, with huge scales all over his body, and nine long necks with nine heads on top of them, all emitting a fierce light.
The hydra slowly paddled into the water and swam towards the shore, and the moment he landed on the shore, the festival began, and without further words, the swamp tribes began to sacrifice their sacrifices according to their positions. Each tribe is led by a patriarch, and the people behind him unleash the dark green net and bring the prepared sacrifice to the Hydra, who has a very keen sense of smell, and when the swamp people open the net, they already know what their sacrifice is, and during the time they move in front of him, they occasionally show a look of anticipation or impatience.
Every time the Hydra eats the sacrifice, the sacrificial patriarch will kneel in front of the Hydra with a huge tray in both hands, and if the Hydra is satisfied with the sacrifice, it will leave more or less liquid from the air, which should be the divine liquid that the werewolf captain said.
