Chapter 674: Vera's Scheme
Although the Flame Patriarch was shocked by the brazenness of the Priest Vera, what was on his mind at the moment was not to despise him, but to think that this might be an opportunity to set things right.
As the patriarch of the clan, Cole has a strong desire for power, and he happens to be the one who doesn't like to share power... Eh, goblins. From this turmoil, he saw the hope of completely overthrowing Vera's lineage, who held the important position of chief priest and witch doctor. However, he didn't move anything on the surface, after all, he still had some.
It is important to know that the influence of the priests who have been held by Vera for several generations is not only a family model, but also threatens their position and shakes the foundation of their power. More importantly, they have completely monopolized the profession and controlled the inheritance of witch doctors. What made Cole scruple the most was that after killing them, it would be embarrassing if the chief priest witch doctor had no one to inherit.
Seeing Cole lost in thought, Vera didn't think anywhere else. As an equally intelligent man, he was well aware of his importance to the community. This is one of the reasons why he has no fear. He believed that as long as Cole didn't have the determination to finish everyone together, he would definitely not dare to do anything wrong about himself.
"Patriarch, time is running out for us. In order not to let them look down on our Fire Ministry, we should immediately and forcefully fight back! ”
Vera, whose eyes flashed, began to think about how to deal with the bastards of the Howling Wind Department after saying this. With a twist of his mind, the corners of his mouth hooked up a sinister smile and said, "There are other five major clans in a similar situation to my clan, not to mention countless small tribes. I don't think we should bear the other party's provocation alone, why don't we send envoys to lobby other tribes to kill this guy who meddles in the internal affairs of other tribes? ”
After listening to Vera's words, Cole's left hand, which was folded under his right hand, shook slightly. He seems to have only known this guy today, and the other party's ambitions seem too big to him. With a strange look in this way, Cole nodded thoughtfully, and then asked after thinking, "So, what about the person to send?" ”
"This matter is related to the reputation of our main priest, so I should arrange it myself!"
In the face of Vera's request, Cole shook his head and said, "It's unreasonable to go to the people who preside over you." After all, the name is not right. ”
Hearing this, Vera's face turned pale, and she was about to ask Cole what he meant. But I saw Cole wave his hand and said: "In order to succeed this alliance and jointly resist the invasion of the Howling Wind Ministry, I think the chief priest should personally lead the team!" ”
Cole's words made Vera's body stagnate slightly, he originally thought that Cole wanted to stop this matter by himself, but he never expected Cole to consider it from this perspective.
After weighing the pros and cons, Cole decided he had to take the risk. Not to mention that as long as he succeeds in uniting and balancing, his prestige will rise to an unprecedented level, which will be of great help to him to further control the tribe, and in terms of security alone, he will also have a great guarantee.
You must know that the Howling Wind Department invaded under the banner of 'the family chief priest of the Great Rebellion'. In case he stays in the tribe, is he worthy of the good conditions created by his ancestors?
Besides, when it comes to my own level, I know it very well. If you are in an ordinary fight, even if you are weaker than the main priest of the Howling Wind Clan, you will not be killed in seconds. However, if the other party is frenzied this time, he will invite the ancestral weapon to help, and how miserable his fate will be can be imagined.
Vera, who was somewhat cowardly, after weighing the pros and cons repeatedly, gritted her teeth and said: "I should also dedicate myself to the tribe, whether it is because I am the chief witch doctor of my tribe or a member of the tribe, I have to shoulder the responsibility of sharing the worries of the tribe." ”
After Dayi Ling Ran finished saying these words that the ghosts didn't believe, Vera changed her words and said, "Then, Patriarch. After I leave, what will be the arrangements for the sacrifice? ”
Cole had long seen Vera's idea of continuing to control the sacrifice, at least installing his own people to keep an eye on him. However, he didn't show it on the outside, but asked with a shocked, suspicious, and incredulous expression, "Isn't it the main priest you have been arranging?" Why do you want to take advantage of this mission to give your own people a holiday? ”
Instinctively, it felt very wrong, but he couldn't think of a reason for Vera's embarrassed face being squeezed by Cole.
"How so? It's just that I think I have to have a witch doctor on the front line, otherwise if I leave, the tribe will fall immediately, and then I will become a sinner of the tribe! ”
Without giving Cole a chance to interject, Vera continued, "But seeing that the patriarch is very confident, I am relieved to send Ver and Gula to the front line to assist you in your fight against the hateful Howling Wind. As for the ancestral hall, it is enough to let Deno go! ”
After finishing speaking, Vera secretly sighed that she was not the chief sacrificial witch doctor of the Flame Ministry's Wise Divine Martial Arts, and she could also think of this idea of killing multiple birds with one stone. The reason why he arranged it this way is that his intentions are not sinister.
Of the three people he mentioned, Vere and Gula were his brothers, and Deno was his cronies (illegitimate children). As for why he let Will and Gula go to the pot that originally belonged to them, it was because although their main priest looked stable in the clan, they were not stable at home. Rather than having an accident to cheapen these two brothers, it is better to let your 'good' brothers play for the tribe.
And once something happens to his side, his illegitimate son can take over the family's business smoothly. As for why the illegitimate child was allowed to take it over, not the parent-child to take it. Thinking of this, Vera was even more proud. Because, his ugly wives did not give him a son at all. As a woman's daughter, she is not suitable to be the chief witch doctor.
You must know that goblins are all patriarchal social civilizations, and marrying their husbands can never be avoided. His main sacrifice was given to his daughter, isn't this a disguised gift of the inheritance to someone with a foreign surname?
Kodra's son is different. Not only can he take over his great business, but even better is who he is now. As an illegitimate child, there is no third person who knows about it at all, except for himself and his mother. In the event of an accident for himself, although the successor Della cannot inherit his surname. However, the inheritance of blood cannot be changed.
More importantly, he knew that Cole, the patriarch of the 'nest', was a gutless thief. He believed that even in his absence, Cole would be happy to see that Della, the 'foreign surname', would occupy the important position of the celebrity. When the time comes, with Cole's support, Della will do better than herself on this basis.
