The second meeting with the High Priest of Radaman was just the two of them. A secret chamber deep in the belly of the mountain was chosen, and Baroque walked for more than half a day to enter it through a long rock tunnel. The secrecy here is even better than that of the Grey Dwarf's cave hall, and you can imagine how much sweat it took for the shamans to dig out this secret passage and chamber. There are complicated totem patterns everywhere here, as if the secret room here has been half sealed, and I don't know what I am guarding against.

Outside the disguise was removed, the high priest's emaciation surprised Baroque.

The old orc, who was already thin and short, was even more rickety at this time, and the wrinkles on his face could be seen even through the thick fur. The muscles of his arms relaxed, and his hands were always trembling slightly. His eyes were gloomy, but he smiled at Baroque with a strong spirit: "Baroque, maybe others don't know, but you should have seen something, right? Hehe, yes, how can you defeat Pope Magus without paying the price? Except for the oracle that no one has ever seen, the Holy See Pope is known as the first person of the human race." I overdrew all the power of orc worship before I unexpectedly hit him hard. Margus needs to recuperate for at least a year and a half, and I don't have long to live. ”

Baroque heard a key word: the power of worship. The High Priest looked into Baroque's eyes and said with a smile, "Yes, it's that power, I call it the power of beast worship. It took me a long time of research and practice to discover this magical power by accident. But Baroque you also have this power in you, but so young. Indeed, you are the descendant of the grace of the spirits of the ancestors, but it is undeniable that you have indeed received the heartfelt love and adoration of your people. ”

In the end, being seen through, Baroque did not know what to say. You can only choose silence. At the same time, he was also a little guarded, after all, who knows what the High Priest had in mind? Just like he had just done something to the Star Totem Array on the Ancestral Altar, wouldn't it be bad if the Great Priest also had some strange ability to kill him and grab the power of faith for his own use?

The high priest saw Baroque's vigilance, shook his head and smiled: "Don't worry. I can't take away your power of worship. Because this is a choice made by the orcs, not what I want. And my body is completely ruined beyond repair. ”

"High Priest. I call this power the power of faith. From the moment I stumbled upon this power, I was careful not to be noticed. Because I always feel that once this power is known to the people of the Apocalypse Church. It will bring ominous things. “

"Hmm. You're quite right. The reason why I fought with Pope Magus was because I was aware of this power in me when I stopped him outside the Valley of Miracles. You should know that the Pope is the spokesman of God, and he has a hint of divinity and is able to perceive our ...... Oh, you said the power of faith. At that time, I was able to calmly force Margus back, but in the end, I chose to use my strength to inflict heavy damage on him. It's because I know I can't dodge it. If I don't die, the Pope will surely gather all the Terran forces again when he returns. Come and clear the orcs and kill me. We can't afford any major blow, and I deserve to sacrifice for the sake of the community. ”

It's so helpless, humans are much stronger than orcs. If the human race really attacked again, the orcs would not be able to stop it at all, and the danger of destruction was not a joke. Whether it is the Baroque or the High Priest of Ladaman, the reason why they want to take the initiative to attack the human race is because the current situation is too rare. ―――――― the dragon clan has restrained most of the military strength of the Holy See, and the elven clan and the mysterious giant clan also have a bad relationship with humans, and there is a possibility of conflict at any time, and they have to restrain the energy of a large part of the human race. In addition, Pope Margus was severely injured by the high priest of Ladaman and could not show up to unify all the forces for a year and a half, and it was precisely under the civil strife of the Adrian Empire that the vitality was greatly damaged, and when the Kaplin Empire in the east invaded the tundra because of pride and carelessness, it was ruthlessly cleaned up by the White Deer Clan led by Caius, so that they had to push out the tundra in ashes and temporarily take a defensive.

It's fair to say that now is a once-in-a-lifetime time. Even in order to secure a large enough buffer zone for the orcs, this great battle must be fought.

"Baroque, my time is running out. The old orc was exhausted, and his strength had been exhausted by the camouflage he had exhausted today, and at this time he had to sit on the animal skin blanket, panting and looking at the baroque, and said.

"I will most likely not make it until next year's war breaks out, and I want to plead with you for one thing. ”

"I'm listening, High Priest. This weakness does not deceive people, Baroque said respectfully to Radama. The old orcs have guarded the orcs for hundreds of years and deserve anyone's respect.

"I know you have a bad opinion of the Shamanic Presbyterian Church, believing that it has decayed and lost its blood and essence of orcs. Radaman smiled wryly and said, "I don't deny that although we are hiding in the Valley of Miracles, we have been guarding the last shamanic lineage for the race for nearly a thousand years, and gradually developing it. But long-term comfort inevitably leads some people to become impetuous, vain, greedy, and lose the humble nature of shamanism. It's my fault for not managing the Council of Elders well, so that there will be a ridiculous move by the Shaman Elder to lead his troops to attack the Blue Wolf Tribe. I have not deceived you, and if it weren't for the fact that Onetto was killed by the Apocalypse on his return, I would have punished him severely and robbed him of his glory as an elder shaman. ”

"Now, next year's war makes it impossible for us to allow chaos within the shamanic sacrifice. And I don't have a chance to care about it. Baroque, I want to ask you...... Please say yes. The high priest looked at Baroque with a pleading look in his eyes.

Baroque can vaguely guess something, a person like him who has a strong grip on **, naturally will not refuse rights. Even if he has to face some challenges, he is confident enough to do so. Quietly replied, "High Priest, please go on, if I can do it, I will not disappoint you." ”

"Please stay in the Valley of Miracles, and I will leave everything here to you, and it will be up to you to return my soul to the Ancestral Spirits...... Come and succeed as High Priest!" said Radamaan slowly.

Baroque didn't show a shocked look, he just groaned, then raised his head and said calmly: "High Priest, no one knows better than you that the pressure brought about by the duties of the white-robed high priest is more overwhelming than the glory and power he has. You trust me, and I will not run away, so I can grant your request. But the first thing I need to make to you is...... I will not remain in the Valley of Miracles, nor will I let the shamans remain here! Our glory is on the battlefield, on the front line against humanity. Until I have enough space for the orcs to live, I will not let any shaman enjoy comfort. Our generation is destined to be a generation that needs to shed blood and sacrifice, and let the shamanic sacrifices of the next generation enjoy a stable life!"

As if he knew that Baroque would say this, Radaman smiled and nodded: "Well, yes." The Valley of Miracles is too comfortable, after the war begins, it should be allowed to migrate the old and weak women and children of the beast tribe, except for the apprentices and the elderly, all the shamans should be tempered on the battlefield ahead, and strengthen their totemic beliefs. ”

They reached an agreement, and no one mentioned anything else. This means that the Baroque will not retaliate against some of the wolf tribes that have hurt the blue wolf tribe and the hostile shamans in the future. Of course, the premise is that those people do not continue to provoke without knowing whether they are alive or dead.

The high priest was tired, and Baroque took his leave and left. Anyway, Radaman can't die for a while, and even if he is ready to pass on the position of high priest to him, it will take a transition period to let the other shamans have a process of adaptation first. During this time, Baroque would go to Siro Saman to learn all about the Totem Circle.

For the next half a month, the Baroque spent more than half a month studying the totem array by the side of Siro Shaman. He didn't even walk around the Valley of Miracles, just going back and forth between his dwelling and Shaman's laboratory at two o'clock. Hungry for study, of course, secretly do not forget to learn [Sochi text], and correspond to its star totem array, start in advance, so as not to be in a hurry when cracking the genuine star totem array in the gray dwarf cave hall in the future. During this period, he had asked others questions about Sochi, consciously or unconsciously, and without exception, they were all at a loss.

Finally, he couldn't wait to ask the pradaman high priest who was meditating, and the high priest cautiously warned him, and also convinced Baroque that this kind of writing was cursed, and except for his accident, no race on the continent of Sauron could learn it, and even if it did, it would be quickly forgotten. This powerful curse can only come from the hands of God. ............ The Baroque even wondered if the gray dwarves had forgotten about it by this time, and it seems that Sochi was much more than just a script!

There was no need to think about it for the time being, and Baroque immersed himself in learning, and his intelligence and wisdom amazed the students of Siro Shaman, and he also gained many shamanic friendships.

Just when Baroque was at home and had plenty of time to study his favorite things for the first time, two uninvited guests hurried to the Valley of Miracles!

When Baroque saw the tired Angret and Protoya, his heart sank, and he suddenly had a very bad premonition! There is no such thing as a hundred thousand urgent things, and the tribesmen will never let Protoya, who has been to the Valley of Miracles, lead the way, and come day and night. Really......!

When Anglei saw Baroque, he rushed over immediately, his eyes were red, and he said hoarsely: "Baroque, something happened." The Duchy of Hansea...... Barrotan and Salomon were attacked, and almost all the warriors of our clan were wiped out......!"

With a bang in his head, Baroque seemed to be hit with a heavy hammer. He took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice, "What......'s going on?" )
