Chapter 152: Sacrifice
Podoska didn't say it, but in his heart he was not convinced. It's obviously the same verdict, and his own method is more simple and direct, not like Cullolier who went around in a circle in vain, why is he good and mine not?
It was because of this incident that Podoska became more and more sure that Muhandil looked up to Kurolil.
In fact, there are many similar things, but this incident touched Podoska the most and impressed the most.
Since then, the relationship between the two has become completely irreconcilable, and even sometimes they no longer hide it when facing Muhantil, and if it weren't for the fact that Cullolir has always been very restrained, I am afraid that the two would not have been beaten many times.
The disharmony between the two, as the patriarch Muhantil is naturally clear, but I don't know what the purpose is, as long as there is something, he will force the two to do it together, if the two just looked at each other at the beginning, then to this point, there is no lack of Muhantil in the elements of fueling the trouble.
Just like this time, it was clear that the tribal candidates could be divided into two groups and let each of them lead a team, but Muhantil deliberately let them form a single team, in the name of strengthening the team and reducing unnecessary attrition.
But everyone knows in their hearts that this is just a reasonable excuse on the surface, and due to the particularity of the process and goals of the big competition, concentrating on one point will affect the results.
Of course, Muhantil would not joke about the inevitable position of the grass master, and after actually entering the land of trials, he did not order everyone to stay together. If you want to hunt ghost lizards, the safest way is to cast a net search.
There have been many speculations about Muhandil deliberately arranging the two of them together, but whether it is the idea of deliberately cultivating them to promote each other, or the idea of letting the two of them hinder each other, they cannot fully stand on their feet, and there are always a few things that do not make sense.
For example, if it is mutually reinforcing, it is clear that as long as the two of them regard each other as rivals, then why make the relationship between the two people to the point of mutual hatred? This will obviously increase the instability of the tribe.
For example, if the two of them were to be restrained by each other, it would be clear that Muhandil was quite wary of both of them, so why not just support his own son?
After thinking about it, he could always find a reason to refute his own point of view, and over time, Podoska completely gave up on pursuing the profundity, anyway, no matter what Muhantil said, he would do it himself, who made the family the patriarch, and he was just a junior?
If it had been the case before, he had been robbed of his white in public by Kurolil, and in order to carry out Muhandir's orders, even if Bodoska was angry, he would only have found the scene afterwards, and he would not have any other thoughts at all.
But I don't know if it was because he tasted the beauty of power, and the enraged Podoska couldn't help but start fantasizing about what would happen if he became the patriarch, if it had been before, with his reverence for Muhandir, he would never have had such an idea.
The look on Podoska's face changed, and Kurolil, who was standing on the sidelines, saw it all, and when everyone was relieved that they had avoided a fight, there was an inexplicable smile on his face.
After about an hour, the Red Mastiff tribe signaled that they had finished resting. And taking advantage of this time, Podoska has also sorted out his mood, at least on the surface, he seems to have completely let go of the previous hustle and bustle of Culolil.
The so-called ritual of opening the gates of hell is not complicated, that is, everyone takes turns to step forward, cut their wrists with the knife they carry, and then stick the wound to the door frame of the gate of hell.
This process will take about a few minutes.
Upon closer inspection, Leach discovered that the gates of hell were really tight.
At first, Leach thought that the so-called ritual was just a sacrifice of some kind by the people smearing the gushing blood on the door frame, which was a little bloody, but it would not have much effect.
But after the ceremony actually began, Leach realized that it was not like that at all,
It is true that blood is required to open the gates of hell, but it is not how much comes out of the wounds, but the gates of hell actively absorb it.
The pitch-black door resembles a vampire that has been hungry for centuries and begins to suck greedily whenever food comes near.
Fortunately, there was no such situation where the blood was completely drained, but even so, all the people who had completed the sacrifice were unusually pale, and the wounds did not even need to be treated to stop the bleeding, and there was very little fresh blood coming out.
It was only at this moment that Leach knew why the people of the two tribes of Wind Owl and Red Mastiff would react so much when Podoska proposed to open the gates of hell immediately, if according to the state of the Red Mastiff tribe when they first arrived, and after such a cruel sacrifice, I am afraid that they would not even be able to stand, let alone enter the land of trials next.
However, this opening ceremony is not a one-sided effort of the people, and everyone who completes the sacrifice will receive a pitch-black token from the gates of hell.
The token was less than the size of a palm, square, with a small blood-red dot in the center, and other than that, it was almost indistinguishable from a charred piece of wood.
But Leach learns from Kumar that it is this unsightly token, but the most important thing for everyone in the Land of Trials.
With this token, you can enter the land of trials, and once the token is destroyed, then you will be expelled immediately, so, in the land of trials, the most important thing is to protect the token in your hand, and the second is to find a way to complete the trial.
In his heart, Leach really didn't want to participate in this kind of evil ritual, but when he heard that the token was indispensable, he could only bite the bullet.
Just as he stretched out his wrist to slash, the black blade behind Leach suddenly trembled.
In Leach's astonished gaze, the Gates of Hell seemed to have met a nemesis, and not only did it not start to bloom in large chunks as impatiently as before, but it also trembled with it, and it was the kind of trembling with fear.
Fortunately, Leach and Saya were ranked last because they were foreigners, and the opening ceremony was nothing strange for the Prairie people.
