Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Plague – The Winning Bug
When the giant scorpion made its way through the arena and rushed straight towards the panicked slaves, the spectators in the stands once again erupted in deafening cheers.
And the reptilian lord, who was the initiator of all this, was sitting on a high platform at the moment enjoying the scene in front of him, only to see his twisted body lying on a high-backed chair, a group of samurai in armor guarding his left and right, and those lowly slaves were responsible for bringing him drinks and fruits, and he would not be absent as long as there were games in the arena.
This lord has invested a lot of effort and investment in this arena, and the monster in front of him is from him, and it can be said that he has worked hard for this big guy reptile lord, but fortunately, the final result is good, and all the audience is very convinced, and the undead walker is this big guy who has become the hottest star in the arena.
The Reptile Lord giggled, raised a crooked arm, and pointed at the monster, motioning for the Plague Priest to watch the performance. The hybrid monster of the black spider and scorpion in the field roared and rushed to the side of a slave, and it grabbed the slave's neck with its huge pincers, and the slave's head was gently knocked off, and the monster picked up the falling body and threw it into its fanged eyes.
"This is just a demonstration," the Reptile Lord said to the Plague Priest, "and when that door opens, the real spectacle begins." The Plague Priest looked in the direction he was pointing, and it was a heavy gate that went up and down, "They promised to develop a new monster, a monster that was stronger than the Necrowalker, which sounded hilarious. The Worm Lord bared his fangs and sneered contemptuously.
"The Zerg are very powerful." The priest agreed, but what he didn't say was that the Worm Lord and his men were also the most disgusting race in the Dark Realm, and the fleas and parasites they produced plagued the other rat people, but even so, the Worm Lord was an indispensable help to the priest, "I am impressed by your strength, which is why I have come to see you today." ”
"I know what the Archpriest is trying to say," the Bug Lord said as he looked condescendingly at the priest, and a shrill cry came from inside the arena, meaning that another person had died under the monster's pincers, "Your plague plan needs my help, do you?" ”
After hearing the worm master's words, the muscles in the priest's whole body tensed. If the rest of the Plague knew how the plague spread, they would be able to thwart their ambitions, and the benefits they would receive would be greatly reduced.
The insect lord grinned and touched the hair on his neck with his rough claws. He put the flea caught in the hair in front of the priest's eyes and said, "It can carry the plague, can it?" The insect lord smugly flapped his tail. My spies have learned that you want to buy a lot of fleas, not rat-tired fleas, but fleas that breed in humans. As long as he had a normal brain, he should be able to guess the mystery. ”
At this moment, the crowd was quiet again, and the priest took his eyes off the gloating insect master, watching the gate be slowly opened by hundreds of wrestlers on the second floor, and a huge cage came into everyone's eyes. The cage contained a large beast, though it didn't seem to be very intelligent, the monster was covered from head to toe with a thick brown fur and was the size of four adult antelopes.
"My dumb guys call this guy an ogre rat, they think this stupid thing can defeat the Necrocast, hahahahaha, let's make a bet." The Worm Lord said to the priest with a smile on his face, and the sarcasm in his tone was very strong, "Bet on how long this stupid thing will live, I don't think he will live more than three seconds." ”
The Plague Priest didn't answer, knowing that the Worm Lord didn't care what he would say, he just wanted the result he wanted. When the gate outside the cage opened, the monster walked down the field with a bulky step, and with every step it took, even the priest on the third floor could feel the slight shaking of the ground.
The ogre rat flapped its claws against its thick chest and roared at the terrible monster in a way that would be incomprehensible to a normal nezumi.
"We can help you." The Worm Lord said, his eyes still watching every move in the arena, even though he was talking to the priest. The Ogre Rat leaped into the undead and didn't rush to attack, just kept circling around the Necrowalker, ready to seize the opponent's loophole and launch a fatal blow. "In the Dark Realm, we have the best technology to breed insects, only we can create stronger fleas for the plague, and only better medium can spread the plague to a wider area and infect more people."
The priest moved nervously after hearing the Worm Lord's words, he was extremely uneasy that the Worm Lord knew so much about the plague and how it spreads, "Without the consent of the Lord, I can't decide on this cooperation privately.......
When the insect master saw the undead walker's pincers pierce into the demon rat's body, he happily clapped his paws before reluctantly turning his gaze to the weak priest, "Please remember that you are here for your own benefit, and my help is limited to you personally. And in return, you should also give something, I am not a greedy person, I just want to share the credit of the plague with you, and then use the strong strength of the Zerg to make a deep impression on the Dark King. ”
"What are you hesitating about?! Don't you have your own ambitions? You're the one who designed this operation, and what can he do without you, Plague Lord? You kill more humans every day than everyone else combined, and your name should be engraved in the heart of every nezumi forever! ”
The priest gradually lowered his head after hearing the words of the insect master, and now his mind was full of what the insect master had said, yes, he was shaken.
"Trust me, you don't have to talk to that old guy." The Worm Lord whispered in the priest's ear, "After all, there can only be one Plague Lord in the Council, and the other lords are ready for change. ”
Hearing the Worm Lord's proposal, the priest raised his head sharply and looked at the Worm Lord in disbelief, sitting on the throne of the Imperial Council! Become the next Plague Lord! This is a position he has never dared to fantasize about, and he has never dared to ask for luxury. The alliance between himself and the Zerg will make it easier for the plague to spread, and will also provide the priest with the extra protection he needs. But to betray your lords, let these heretics share in this holy and glorious honor....... These are all things that he must think through.
After seeing the rat successfully break free from the necromancer's pincers, the insect master cursed and slashed the body of the slave next to him with his claws. In the venue, I saw the demon rat flee and hugged the tail of the undead walker with both arms, when the undead walker struggled to escape from the confination of the demon mouse's green giant claws, the muscles on the arm of the ogre suddenly contracted and forced, accompanied by a terrible popping sound and the sound of tendon rupture, the demon rat actually ripped the tail off the necroman's body alive.
As the results appeared, the insect lord also lost interest in this battle, "Think about my proposal, I may not be so good at talking next time." After saying that, the insect master clapped his hands, and his servants heard the order and smoothly lifted the insect master's seat and walked towards the exit.
The priest turned his gaze back into the arena and watched the undead walker's head dent and burst under the rat's fist. He was deeply shocked by the scene in front of him, the Plague Priest's rotten face shrank back, and turned to look at the back of the Worm Lord, he knew what he had to do, and he decided to accept the Worm Lord's proposal for an alliance.
The Worm Lord heard the sound of chasing behind him, and he knew that he had succeeded in convincing the hesitant priest.
