Chapter Ninety-Six: Absorption
In a tavern that looked particularly dilapidated, walkers were slightly drunk and noisy. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Hey, did you hear that? There seems to be another fight in the north, and I don't know how many more people have died!" a drunken man shouted, causing his eyes to turn his eyes away.
"Oh, which lord is leading the army this time?" said a thin man as he raised his wine, his face flushed, looking a little confused.
"It seems to be a baron, no matter how specific, I don't know. The man shouted. Gradually laughing with the surroundings.
After the laughter gradually fell and the drunkenness gradually subsided, the big man shook his head again and shouted: "This time, the north side has been fighting for more than a month, and there are battlefields everywhere. ”
"Why don't we pack up our things and go north to see if there are any omissions to pick up?"
After he whispered this sentence, he immediately caused a group of people around him to move, wanting to echo him.
On the battlefield, though, often the spoils of war are taken away by the victorious side. However, the unpredictable form of the battlefield and the complex environment will always leave some remnants, and there are even some very miserable battlefields with individual battles, and the legacy is even richer.
The armor and weapons of the warriors, as well as some remnants of substances, etc., are a great treasure, enough to make people's hearts excited.
However, under the movement of this group of people, there are still a few sober people.
A large man in tattered leather armor stood up and stopped them: "Are you crazy?"
"Not to mention the ghosts that may remain on the battlefield and the demonic beasts that have been attracted, it is now that there are horses and knights everywhere in the north, it is a great obstacle, if we are found to dig up the loot without permission, it will definitely not be good!"
As soon as these words came out, the people around them suddenly calmed down, and the little drunkenness that was still there completely disappeared.
"Alas!" calmed down for a while, and there was a faint sigh in the crowd.
"Ever since we were occupied by the Duchy of Indeli, life has been getting harder and harder. ”
One whispered, suppressing it so that outsiders would not hear it.
"Originally, we could still help the caravans as guards, or do some casual labor around, and live a safe life. ”
"But since the king's surrender, the situation here has been completely chaotic, and not only have the caravans come and go much less, but even the city has begun to be in chaos. ”
The man drank the inferior wine from the big wine glass, and said with a depressed face.
Hearing him say this, the people around him were also silent, their faces looked blank, with a faint sigh, just silently raised the wine glass in their hands, and slowly felt the bitter taste.
"Why don't we go north and join the Principality of Adisus?" a voice broke the silence, but it still lowered its voice a little, not daring to let people in the distance hear it.
Hearing this proposal, the eyes of everyone present lit up.
"Yes, I heard that the northern Adisus was recruiting soldiers and officers at this time! I heard that the treatment was very good, not only was food and other materials distributed every month, but also land was granted!"
"As long as you successfully join the army, each soldier has five acres of land, and if you make a meritorious contribution or even become an officer, you can even more. ”
Everyone said one by one, with a kind of longing and fanaticism in their eyes.
This is an obsession with the land.
In this world, commoners could not own their own land, and with the exception of a few, owning land was almost exclusive to the nobility. Because of this, the people of this world have an extraordinary obsession with the land.
However, some people still hesitated, some couldn't believe it: "But such generous conditions, who knows if it's true, maybe it's just fake news from the north." ”
"And, even if it's true, if we want to go to the north to join the army, how can we avoid the demonic beasts and probe horses along the way?"
So everyone hesitated a little, and couldn't help but look at the big man in leather armor in front of them, waiting for him to speak.
Clearly, this man was the leader of the gang and had great prestige in the hearts of these people.
Seeing a group of subordinates like this, the leader hesitated, and then said, "Don't consider authenticity. ”
"When I used to travel to the north with a caravan, I once met a soldier from the Duchy of Adisus, who was probably the same as we knew, or even better. ”
"As for the dangers along the way. ”
He groaned, "I know of a few paths that are difficult for the army to pass, and they should not be discovered by the horses. As for Warcraft, I've asked too. ”
"It seems that as the armies of the two principalities continue to fight, a large number of demonic beasts in this area have been attracted to the battlefield and gathered on the battlefield. Coupled with the fact that a large number of demonic beasts are being killed in the north, as long as we are careful and stay away from those dangerous areas, we should be able to pass. ”
He calmly analyzed.
With his analysis, around him, everyone's eyes brightened little by little, and they were already moving.
After a while, I saw them leave in a hurry, apparently going down to prepare.
In the distance from them, a thinly dressed young man with a dark face looked at an old man in front of him, smiled and shook his head.
Sensing the departure of the group in the distance, Chen Ming looked at their backs and did not speak.
He naturally heard the conversation over there, even if the other party was very careful to cover it up, but for an existence like him, even if he couldn't use his divine power, he could hear it clearly.
But he didn't care, just continued to look at the old man in front of him, and said, "What I asked you to ask a few days ago, how did you investigate?"
Seeing Chen Ming's question, the old man replied with a serious face: "This lord, we have already asked clearly. ”
"Most of the destroyed ancestral altars and totems have now been bought by some passing merchants, and it seems that they want to be sold as some commemorative collectibles. Others were collected by some nobles. ”
"We've acquired some in the past few days, when do you need them?"
Seeing this, Chen Ming nodded and said, "Take me now!"
So, the two got up. After a while, when Chen Ming followed the old man to a basement, a somewhat gloomy room began to appear, with the emblem of the god of nature faintly engraved on it.
Chen Ming looked over. Because of the fear of being discovered by the fluctuations of divine power, these divine emblems are not blessed by divine power, and are only used as pure decorations.
And this is an intelligence base of the Principality of Adisus here, after Chen Ming contacted here a few days ago, he thought that he was an envoy who came here from the north and enshrined him.
"Your Excellency, it's here!"
The voice of the old man in front of him was heard, and the next room was opened.
Chen Ming went in to take a look, and inside, a pile of wreckage was piling up in it. They vary in shape, from some fragments to complete totem poles and the like.
However, on top of these things, there is a slight hint of reddish, which looks very strange in this gloomy basement. Faintly, it seems that there is a resentful spirit attached to it, cursing, roaring.
"Is this what you want?"
The old man looked at these things, only to feel a little cold on his body, and couldn't help but ask a little strangely.
He has always had doubts about collecting these things, but as an intelligence officer, the most important thing is secrecy, so he has not asked.
Chen Ming fixed his body and looked at it.
In his perspective, there was a reddish glow on all of them, and although the power within them had been drained away, the remaining essence was still there, not gone.
Sensing this, the killing divinity in Chen Ming's body was slowly fluctuating, faintly boiling.
"You go out first!" Chen Ming said without replying, looking at the pile of things in front of him.
Seeing this, the old man bowed down and slowly left, leaving only Chen Ming alone.
And Chen Ming looked at the little blood red in front of him, and sighed a little: "Sure enough, although the power obtained from the sacrifice for hundreds of years has been taken away, the remnants of this blood sacrifice are still condensing and have not disappeared. ”
This is a little bit of the killing essence obtained from the long blood sacrifice, although most of it disappeared as the power was taken away, there are still some remnants of the original sacrifice that have not disappeared.
At this time, if a new soul is attached to these objects and sacrificed for their blood, then the success rate of becoming an ancestral spirit will increase.
However, thinking so, Chen Ming shook his head slightly, and his arm was gently stretched out and touched it.
Suddenly, a little change slowly occurred. A little blood-red killing essence seemed to be pulled by something, and it was continuously absorbed into Chen Ming's body and gathered on top of the killing divinity.
He absorbed them one by one, and when all of them were absorbed, a little bit of the comprehension of killing echoed in his mind, and another killing divinity was condensed.
Sensing the condensation of this divinity, Chen Ming said silently in his heart: "The blood sacrifice corresponds to the killing, continue like this." If you can slaughter the ancestral gods of the entire world, and absorb the killing power accumulated by the ancestral gods of the entire world for countless years, maybe you can really condense a killing godhead. ”
He thought so, and then his mind moved, and a little light of divine light bloomed quietly in the godhead, without a single wave.
In his senses, in the original cyan divine light, a little reddish that could not be concealed began to slowly increase, faintly matching with the ubiquitous killing machines in the world.
