Chapter 1500: The Song of the Ritual
Three days –
Ronald never expected that the speed of rushing to Olaire would be reduced to such an extent. It only took him three days before he saw the orc city in front of him, the destination of his trip, Oriel.
The city symbolizes the nation of the orcs and also shares a name with the king of the behemoths.
In other words, as the ruler of this kingdom and this world.
Ole named it after himself.
“……”
Ronald, who was in flight, looked down at the saint's relics in his hand.
After using all the magic power of the Grey River Grass Ring to enhance his flight speed, his speed was so fast that even Ronald himself was a little surprised. This amplitude of enhancement can definitely be of no small difference in battle.
I thought about it in my heart, and when Ronald came back to his senses, the scene in his eyes changed again.
The orc city, which was still far away a few breaths ago, had already reached a very close position, and with Ronald's eyesight, he could already see quite a lot of details in the city.
The city is surrounded by a fence several meters high, but it is simply a frame made of wood. Probably because the world of Lin in the song does not have too high war needs, and only needs to isolate the small impact of the environment, so there is such a result.
As for the houses, the detached wooden houses made of wood occupy all building types, and there are almost no materials such as stone and brick.
At this moment, it is daytime, and many orcs are active in the streets and alleys, which makes the city quite vibrant.
"Ronald... Mr... We... Is it coming? ”
At this time, there was an intermittent sound of inquiry behind Ronald.
He turned his head to see that it was Marda questioning him.
In the ultra-high-speed flight, the three of them had to work hard to protect themselves, and the questioning was even more affected, so that it sounded like this.
"That's right, it's the city ahead."
Ronald immediately slowed down, and when he saw the three members of the church withdraw the protective spell, he relieved himself before he continued:
"Kostat and the owner of the city are down there, according to the time when I was separated from them......"
Suddenly, Ronald's narration stopped.
Because they had been lowering their altitude, the four of them were getting closer and closer to the orc city.
It was then that he heard singing.
The encounter in the forest world in the song made Ronald very concerned about the elements of the singing, so he naturally paid attention to it as soon as possible.
It's the orcs in the city singing.
As the distance closes, it is now possible to see several orc teams walking along the streets of the city, while singing a uniform ballad.
If you look at the whole city, you will find that the movements of these teams are strictly planned, and there are very fixed details about which streets they walk, how much time they spend, and even where they start singing.
“……”
This is what Oriel calls a ritual!
Ronald immediately realized what was happening in the city below.
An event that can only be held by gathering the strength of a city is the way to send people into the holy capital.
If such a requirement is placed on an alien intruder......
I have to admit that this is another highly insured move.
"Mr. Ronald, are they singing?"
At this time, Marda also spoke.
As the height decreased, the three members of the church, whose hearing was inferior to Ronald, also noticed this phenomenon and asked questions.
Ronald nodded slightly, pointed to the orc below and explained:
"I have reached an unifying idea with the ruler of the city, who is performing a ceremony to send me into the holy capital."
Aware of the hidden magic of the city, Marda was moving slowly with the singing procession. The priest of the Holy Throne attached great importance to this trip, and when he looked closely, he discovered a special situation.
"I saw that in addition to the singing team, many residents also sang together."
"They weren't involved in the magical field created by the ritual, was this a spontaneous action, or was there some other aspect of the ritual?"
Ronald shook his head dryly:
"It's the first time I've been here, so I'll have to go down and ask about it."
After discussing like this, the group of four finally landed on the ground.
Although the orcs were holding a ceremony, the atmosphere was like a grand celebration, so that no one cared about Ronald and their arrival.
And even if someone collides with them......
With the strange appearance of the orcs, I don't care about the 'strange-looking' guys like the four humans.
After landing, Ronald quickly launched a reconnaissance spell.
The four members of the church knew who he was, so they did not bother, but watched and studied the singing performances in the streets.
The recon spell quickly spread throughout the city, and Ronald found Kostadt.
With a true personality, the maid can be locked by the spells of the Divine Comedy - Inferno, making it easy to find.
"We've found someone, let's go." Ronald beckoned the three members of the church forward, and at the same time spoke, "You can also observe the process of this ceremony on the way, and we will try to hurry up as much as possible." ”
The location of Kostat is right in the middle of the city, not far away.
The group of four hurried towards that side, and Ronald was not idle during this time, continuing to refine the details of the reconnaissance spell.
Then he found something interesting.
In addition to Kostat, other signs of human activity were found in the city, but the number was very small, only three people.
Perhaps this is what Olel said about the intruders who strayed into this place and could not leave it for the rest of their lives?
In this respect, this king of behemoths is not bad.
At least he didn't directly kill the killer because others had strayed into this place. Perhaps this attitude is one of the reasons why he can be canonized by the church in the past.
The destination arrived quickly.
Where the Costaert is located is an open square in the middle of the city, with an ornate wooden stage in the center.
At this moment, there are orcs dressed up on the stage and singing alone.
Accompanists, spectators, and other orcs waited.
And in what looked like the judges' bench, Olele sat in it, and Kostadt was next to him.
“……”
Seeing this bizarre scene, Ronald made no secret of his surprise:
"It's ...... Singing competition? ”
Unlike Ronald, Marda, who was next to her, paid more attention to the ritual itself, so she muttered puzzled:
"It's part of the ritual?"
At the same time, Kostadt sensed Ronald's arrival.
The maid stood up directly from the judges' seat, didn't care about the atmosphere of the singing, and took the initiative to greet her.
"Sir!" Costadt bowed, during which he only glanced at the three members of the church, paying no attention, and then focused all his attention on Ronald, "Olel is very cooperative with me, and the plan is going well." There are still four days left before the ceremony is over. ”
