Crown of Chaos

Chapter 131, Chasing the Cannibals

The Lord of Change wanted Aaron to sacrifice a living cannibal as a sacrifice.

Obviously, his good brother noticed this scene and became interested in cannibals.

Why are cannibals ostracized by the gods? Why can't cannibals enter the underworld? Why does the country say "cannibals must be cursed"?

Good brother Tzeentch wants to know.

As for my good brother Slaanesh, cannibalism is too vulgar and boring, and he has long been tired of it.

Aaron really didn't feel any burden about sacrificing a cannibal to his good brother Tzeentch.

These cannibals killed all his people, so it's not too much for him to send the cannibals to be sliced ​​by the Lord of Change, right?

As for how to sacrifice, it depends on his five-ring magic - Banishment of Tzeentch.

Aaron was thinking about the answer, and a snowflake blew in front of his eyes. The divine spark shield of Tzeentch blocked the snowflake.

But the Son of Chaos didn't feel much relief, because according to Maximian's description, the killer's level was very extraordinary. Although his people were exiled and lived a long and hard life, they still had the foundation to join the army before. To some extent, his uncle, who was the first in line to succeed him, didn't even put up a decent resistance.

That's a problem... The dwarf craftsman Foujar hasn't finished the snake-scale dragon leather armor yet, and Aaron is still wearing the ordinary inner court knight standard armor.

"What's wrong, junior, did you find anything?" Leonard saw Aaron's serious expression and asked proactively.

"Bloodline." Aaron said softly.

"What?"

"The cannibals, the believers of the Dark Sun, came here to investigate my bloodline." Aaron squinted his eyes. He glanced at the eldest lady Charlotte, who was holding his arm, and couldn't help but whisper: "Because I mutated. I have acquired the warlock profession, so believers in the Dark Sun believe that my family may hide the supreme bloodline of some supreme beings in the outer plane, so there are cannibals, so there are all these adult female corpses and male corpses. Either eat it or take it away.”

"Greed in the heart will not be tolerated in the world." Kong put his hands together and recited a motto.

"Thom cursed them, cannibals." Leonard clenched his fists.

"Brother, what should we do now?" The eldest lady was also thinking: "Should we pursue him?"

"Chase!" Aaron nodded, and he began to recite a spell. After cutting his fingertips with a dagger, a drop of blood floated in the air and turned into a pink mist.

Aaron's warlock bloodline has nothing to do with the entire Salian tribe. Aaron believes that no matter how many cannibals check, they can't find the power of the Four Gods in him.

However, it is true that the blood of these people is close to Aaron's. Aaron tried to trace his bloodline through the power of Slaanesh, and the pink smoke pointed out the direction for them.

north!

"The cannibals are heading north." Aaron nodded: "We will follow."

The four-person team immediately prepared for action. Among them, Kong watched Aaron's magic warily. The ascetic felt an aura of extreme debauchery and greed from the magic released by Aaron.

The ascetic became more and more certain that what was flowing on Aaron's body was cursed blood!

Sora hesitated.

Do you want to wait for this beast to fully grow up and then get rid of it with your own hands?

Or do you believe that he can overcome this curse and turn it into his own power?

The ascetic was hesitant.

…………

Deep in Guangze, covered in ice and snow, the sky is freezing.

The cannibals led by Knight Frankfield, the left hand of God, were still on their way. There were many corpses on the sled. The speed of this group of black-robed men was not very fast.

Knight was obviously chewing something in his mouth. The Left Hand of God complained about the damn weather. He glanced at the corpse on the sleigh behind him and felt very upset.

After his confirmation, the Salian clan, at least this group of clan members, did not have the bloodline required by the Black Sun Holy Lord. He had already tasted the flesh of several people, especially the flesh of Aaron's uncle Carlos. It doesn't taste special in the mouth.

This made Knight very irritated, and he even felt a little panicked.

He knew that the great and supreme Prince of the Dark Sun had high expectations for his action.

He also knew that only Cyric was willing to protect cannibals like them.

He also knew that, despite the Dark Sun Prince's promise of a reward if he completed this deed, if he could find out the secret of the origin of the Aaron-Salian warlock's bloodline, the secret of summoning the incarnation of the god could directly elevate him to legend. Strong, but these so-called "promises" are worthless to Cyric.

For the Dark Sun Prince, contracts are meant to be broken, and promises are meant to be torn up.

He already had a "rebellious" priesthood.

If this thing is done well, Knight will have to worry about whether his master will fulfill his promise. Now that this thing is not done beautifully enough, Knight has to worry about whether Cyric will treat himself like a piece of sewer on the street corner. Throw them into mass graves like their stinky meat.

Knight clenched his daggers, thinking about what to do next.

The surprise is coming soon!

"Your Excellency, Left Hand!" A man in black robes shouted with surprise: "Your Excellency, good news!"

"Aaron Salian is here with his people!"

"What?!"

The Left Hand of God couldn't restrain his joy. He couldn't help but ask: "Really? Are you sure that's Aaron Salian?"

"I'm sure." The man in black robe whispered: "As you ordered, we left manpower nearby, but he really came and brought a few people with him!"

"This is really... hahahaha~" God's left hand laughed, and Knight covered his chest with satisfaction.

Aaron Sallian, you are a complete idiot!

I was worried that it would be difficult to find an opportunity to make a move in Susar, so I decided to deal with your poor relatives first.

Hey, you actually delivered it to your door!

This must be the goddess Taimora...oh no, this must be the blessing of the Black Sun Lord!

Not only do I want to figure out the secret of your bloodline, I will also dedicate you to the Holy Lord of the Black Sun, so that you can understand that there are some beings that you cannot offend.

"Who did he bring with him?" Feeling satisfied, God's left hand still remained vigilant.

Because this vigilance is his greatest asset in surviving as a cannibal until now!

"A paladin, a warlock, and a monk." The subordinate replied: "It seems that the strength is not bad, but the details cannot be known."

Knight frowned.

Paladins don't taste good. The meat of these things tastes like angel's entrails.

The monks are not tasty either. The meat of these things tastes as tasteless as a piece of cardboard.

"It seems that four people are not easy to deal with." There are more than a dozen black-robed guards in God's Left Hand, but they are all elite professionals.

Knight thought for a moment and remembered Cyric's teachings.

The Prince of the Dark Sun does not like head-on confrontations and large-scale killings, because this means that it is not in line with Cyric's teachings, but will increase the power of Tempus, the god of war.

For Cyric, the most meaningful behavior is to spread fear, betrayal and strife, to create terror, assassination and chaos.

"Execute Plan B." After thinking carefully, Knight, the Left Hand of God, showed a smile.

There is a stronghold of the Dragon Witch Cult nearby, located in the Thunder Peak Mountains to the north of Guangze.

"Introduce Aaron Salian and the others into the Dragon Witch Cult stronghold."

A pair of daggers flipped up and down quickly in the left hand of God, so fast that it was impossible to see clearly.

"Let the Dragonmaw Walkers, the Dragon Witch Cultists, and their lizard men, corpse monsters and flying dragons deal with these guys."

"We are only responsible for harvesting the battlefield."

…………

After several hours of chasing, Aaron and the other four arrived at the foot of the Thunder Peak Mountains. Looking at the dangerous peaks that stood on the ground and reached the sky in the distance, Aaron asked the four-person team to stop for a while and eat something. Physical recovery.

"Please, Master Kong, we will probably have to fight next." Finding a leeward corner at the foot of the mountain, Aaron took out two ham sandwiches with fried eggs and handed them to the ascetic.

"That would be disrespectful." Sora clasped his hands together to express his gratitude.

Monks also eat meat.

Monks pay attention to restraining their desires, but this does not mean that they do not eat meat. On the contrary, monks attach great importance to meat. They often eat bacon, dried meat, ham or broth, as well as foods such as cheese and eggs. .

The precepts of many monks prohibit eating food made with spices, or meat made with strong-smelling condiments (such as leeks). Monks believe that food with strong smells and complex tastes is also a pursuit. The act of enjoying.

This is not allowed.

When the monk reaches the late master level and creates an "immortal body", the situation will change again.

The "qi" they exercise fills their bodies so that they no longer suffer the debuffs of aging and cannot be magically aged.

Although monks still die, they no longer need food or drink.

Kong is a person who has taken the "Oath of Poverty". After raising his strength to the elite level or above, Kong can "eat grain" and no longer need food. However, Kong still chooses to eat because it allows him to recover his physical strength faster. .

Similarly, there are differences between these types of vows. For example, if an ascetic accidentally breaks the vow without knowing it, he only needs to perform a period of "atonement practice" to regain the bonus of the poverty vow, but if If an ascetic breaks the precepts actively or passively and knowingly, then he will break his vow forever and become the most ordinary monk, forever losing the super powerful and abundant blessing effects brought by the vow of poverty.

Aaron handed the sandwich to Charlotte and Leonard again. The food was blessed by Aaron's life magic and was still warm. Both the college principal and the eldest lady ate the food with big mouthfuls.

After a short rest, the team continued their journey. In the dim environment, the black sky and the heavy snow, Aaron relied on the power of Slaanesh and relied on his own blood to find the direction.

Named for the devastating storms that suddenly appear throughout the year to ravage the land, the uninhabited peak is home to a tribe of orcs and goblins who are unpopular with the people of Cormyr, Zambia, and the Vale.

These guys occasionally raid villages outside of Cormyr's patrols, and travelers are advised to be armed and proceed with caution. The mountain passes are blocked by snow in winter. Harsh weather makes large-scale exploration difficult, but lone prospectors sometimes return with fist-sized deposits of natural silver.

Likewise, Thunder Peak is the border between Cormyr and Vale.

There have always been rumors that there is a dracolich in Thunder Peak. He has occupied an abandoned dwarf city and settled here.

Thunder Peak is also a famous war attraction. A shocking battle once broke out here. The great arcanists of the Netheril Empire once controlled the floating city to fight the orc army here.

In the end, the Netheril Empire won, and a total of 140,000 orcs were slaughtered here.

This can be regarded as one of Netheril's major contributions to the country. In the book "The End of Netheril" that Aaron read, the author Ms. Silinxi also made a positive comment on it and expressed that it was appreciated. The Netherese people of the Saluk witch-hail heritage finally did something right and left an indelible contribution to the country.

Aaron made a warning gesture.

The road on the mountainside was covered with messy footprints and traces of heavy objects being dragged. Slaanesh's magic exposed the whereabouts of the cannibals to Aaron. It could be seen that although the cannibals had carefully covered up the traces, The traces of dragging heavy objects are still very obvious.

"It seems like it's not far away." Aaron squinted his eyes.

He is not a specialized tracking master. In terms of specialized tracking masters in the wild, rangers and rogues are.

A powerful tracker can easily identify footprints and ruts in the wild, and even distinguish what kind of enemy tracks they left behind. They are an indispensable partner in wild adventures.

He originally planned to invite two seniors to come together, but it turned out that Disma actually went to attend the party at Manakorn-Anaheim. This was something Aaron did not expect. Now he can only go to the battle in person.

Following the traces, the four people continued to track into a mountain col, where the dragging traces disappeared.

What appeared in front of Aaron and others was an unfathomable cave entrance. In the snow, it looked so inconspicuous and blurry. In front of the cave was a vast white snowfield with only a few frozen stars. Bushes were scattered around, looking like no one had been there for a long time.

But Aaron felt that there was something unusual in the snow.

He felt a faint breath of magic, buried in the snow.

What's in the snow?

While Aaron was still thinking, the eldest lady took action.

Light spell!

Charlotte's fingertips shot out a bright ball of light, which landed in the center of the snow. Covered by the flying snow, the ball of light still burst out with bright light, lighting up the entire snowfield in the mountain col!

"Woooooo~"

The snow reacted. Several "people" wearing armor and helmets stood up from the snow. Facing the bright light of the light spell, they all let out painful screams.

Now Aaron could see clearly that these things were not human at all!

It's a zombie!

Wights are evil spirits transformed from mortals driven by dark desires and great vanity.

When death comes and life hangs on a thread, mortals can pray to evil gods or abyss demons to maintain their lives in the form of immortality and launch an eternal war against the living.

If the evil god or the abyss evil responds to this prayer, then the mortal will be transformed into a corpse monster. The mortal who becomes a corpse monster will always serve the master who transformed him into an undead creature without getting tired while retaining a certain degree of autonomy. pursuing their goals.

What a vicious method! Apparently someone arranged for these corpse monsters to lie directly in the snow and be covered by the snow. If nothing happens, these corpse monsters will sleep here forever. If there are creatures approaching, then these corpse monsters will come out of the snow. Caught off guard and launched a surprise attack!

Then the answer is very simple, there are people in the cave.

Is he a cannibal?

Aaron was still thinking, but Sora had already taken action!

"The filthy thing, the devourer of life, the evil thing of immortality."

"In the name of Lathander, Lord of the Dawn, I grant you purification and liberation!"

With empty hands clasped together, the master ascetic took a deep breath. The magic element called "qi" around him gathered together, stepped on the cloth shoes in the snow, and jumped up.

Fly over the roof and walk over the wall!

Fall lightly!

Jumping forward more than twenty meters, Kong's figure drew a ghostly trace. He made a fist with his hand, and a wave of air flashed forward with white light.

Tianyin wave!

The beam hit a zombie demon, and the heavily armored undead creature trembled all over. The strong armor was undamaged, but the bones under the armor were crumbling!

"Drink!" Kong landed in front of another corpse demon. He shouted angrily and punched with both fists. As his muscles trembled, two sound barriers exploded in the air.

Echo strike! Gale combos!

The corpse demon was blown away more than ten meters on the spot.

This wasn't over yet. Before the corpse monsters could react, the ascetic took a deep breath, clasped his hands together, and white smoke erupted from his palms. He struck the ground with his palm, and a surging heat wave spread along with scorching flames. As it drove forward, a strong wave of air shook up the surrounding snow.

Shocking punch!

All the corpse monsters were hit by this blow and their bodies staggered and lost their balance. Their feet rose up from the ground and then fell down, falling in a mess.

Aaron was amazed.

Only Kong was alone, and with just one of his surprise attacks, all the seven or eight corpse demons lurking in the snow were knocked away and fell, temporarily losing their ability to resist.

You know, this is no ordinary corpse demon. As far as Aaron can see, every corpse demon here is wearing heavy armor, holding a two-handed long knife, a sword on his waist, and a long bow on his back.

But they didn't get any chance to take action!

This is the master ascetic who took the vow of poverty!

"Okay, let's go!" Although it was not in line with Aaron's idea to take action on his own initiative, he immediately signaled to Leonard and Charlotte that they could take action.

Aaron has a weird intuition.

He vaguely felt that there seemed to be something inside this cave.
