Chapter 28: The Supremacy of Strength (1)
Kas returned to the city of Shama again, but instead of returning to his family fortress, he went to Ševentam. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"I thought you would be a black-robed mage from now on. Seventam looked at Cass and said jokingly.
"I belong to no one, I belong only to myself. From now on, I will be the first Dark Elf mercenary who does not belong to any family. Are you going to continue to use me?" Cass said coldly.
"If I'm going to hire you, you've got to make a price. Stepham said, seemingly surprised by Cass's choice.
"I want Lisal dead!" Cass said through gritted teeth.
"She's dead. Side Tam replied with a blank face.
The news did not come as a particular surprise to Cass.
"What did Gwyneth do?" Cass said.
Šiventam was silent, it was an unproven conspiracy.
Everyone knows the truth, but it's not right to say it.
"Well done, haha. For the first time, Cass expressed his joy.
"I don't know if it's because you've been with humans for too much time lately and can't even hide your emotions. Shventam reminded Cass.
"I'm a loner now, and I can't hold myself back anymore. Cass said nonchalantly.
Šiventam looked at Cass and said, "In this way, you came back to send you to death." If you don't want to die yet, go back to the black-robed mage, who is a madman but has never hurt you and saved you a few times. ”
"Yes," said Cass, "I sought out my enemy and asked him to kill me, but he saved me. Now that I think about it, there is no one who wants me dead more than my people, so I came back. ”
"Why did you suddenly have such a thought?" asked Šiventham.
"I'm tired. Kastan admitted, his voice full of exhaustion, he was really tired. Even the thought of Ambell's red floor-dragging robe now could not arouse his desire to survive.
"I may fulfill you," said Shivetam, "and as a valued member of the Maros family, you have one last use. ”
Cass understood what the other party was referring to.
Sacrifice!
This is a privilege exclusive to the children of nobility.
Cass almost wanted to laugh.
This man is actually his biological father, and the mother of Maros, who is his biological mother, but once he loses his usefulness, they do not hesitate to sacrifice him in order to win the favor of the Spider God again.
"Yes! It's an honor. Cass laughed, and for the first time he realized how happy it was to not have to control his emotions, and he could finally understand why Puno was so moody.
It was a great sacrificial ceremony.
The seventh-ranked (oh, seventh) family in the city of Shama, the Mother of Maros, led her priest's daughters, and Siventam, the commander of the Drow Barracks, presided over the meeting.
The member who will be sacrificed is none other than the traitor Cass who had fled to the black-robed mage Puno and later betrayed the race for Darla, the Chosen One of humanity.
Šiventam didn't really like such rituals, he hated the able-bodied female priests who would use the power of a spell to pray for the blessing of Queen Rose while plunging a sharp knife into Cass's chest.
Cass was once the most promising successor to Šiventham.
He was a born warrior.
However, this time the sacrifice, Šiventam also agreed, and will also be present to express his attitude.
No one wants a defection to happen again, so it is an indispensable ritual to punish the traitor severely.
"God, in the name of the Maros family, I beg you to take this ......," muttered Gwyneth, who was in charge of the knife, as she tore the clothes on Cass's chest and lifted the knife, ready to stab him in the chest.
Just as she was about to make a move, all the female priests of the Maros family received the idea from Rose, the queen of the spider god!
"Stop!"
Gwyneth was startled, instinctively stopped, and her eyes widened as she looked at her mother.
Mistress Maros had risen from her seat, and the look on her face indicated that she had received such a message.
Despite her bewilderment, Gwyneth slowly lowered her hand.
At that moment, a black cloud of smoke rose from the altar and eventually burrowed into Cass's body.
Immediately afterward, the rope on Cass was broken.
Cass covered his head with his hands and closed his eyes in pain.
After a few moments, Cass opened his eyes again, and the golden eyes had now turned a strange fuchsia.
"From now on, fully cooperate with Cass's actions. ”
The voice of Rose's mind once again penetrated the heads of the various Drow priests, reminding them of the fact that Cass had obtained the ****, and, more importantly, they not only wanted to let Cass go, but also reuse Cass, which made all Drow suspicious and confused, but none of the dark elves dared to question the decision of the Spider Queen, so they had to obey the order.
In the blink of an eye, it was time for young Drow to participate in the trial, and Cass was among them.
"All of you, 363 in all, must enter this crystal labyrinth," Šiventam said to the young dark elves who were about to participate in the trial, while pointing to the crystal maze behind him, "No matter what method is used, those who can stay for 15 days and come out alive in the end can advance even if the trial is successful." ”
"It's not that hard. One of the youngest dark elves said conceitedly.
"That's right! it's not hard at all!," said Šiventam laughing, "and now I'm going to declare the only rule: you are not allowed to enter with anything other than weapons, and if you are found to have anything to eat or nothing to do with the battle, you will be cursed and turned into a terrible monster, the arachnid elves in the moat." ”
"But you said you were going to stay for 15 days and not be allowed to bring food, how can we live so long without eating?" asked the youngest dark elf, a little confused.
Eventam smiled grimly and said, "So at the end of the trial every year, it is considered a success to be able to have a third of the people come out alive." ”
It took a moment before the power of these words was revealed on the dark elf's face.
It's an incredible shock and fear.
Pathetic fellow!!!!!
"If I don't ......" Before the poor young drow could finish speaking, he was waved by Shventam and slashed in half and thrown into the crystal labyrinth. (To be continued.) )
