Chapter 163: Dragon Crossing the River and Local Snake (4)
"You little mouse, I don't need these factories, but I won't leave my blood."
Vitrick showed his sharp teeth and said with a sigh.
"No one understands the power of blood better than engineering warlocks like us. Those exiled guys can work hard for you because they have no foundation. If you want me to be like that, there are only thirteen factories, far away
Not enough."
"Really? Then you don't want to do it."
Eski said nothing more to Vitrick, took back the rat-skin paper and put it back on his waist.
"I have to move quickly. I don't have enough time. It's the same as the mine of Warlock Vitrik. I won't keep you."
Before Vitrik could react, several thick black tentacles had broken through his dimensional force field barrier and wrapped around his waist. This was officially the black magic plant outside the door that blocked the power of Slaanesh.
.
The newly engraved runes belonging to the Nagash legal system allow it to constantly decompose the rich Slaanesh corruption inside and transform it into Dar to strengthen itself, which makes its ability surpass Eski to some extent in a short period of time.
.
Although the things decomposed by Slaanesh's corrupt energy are pure Dahl no matter how you look at them, Eski can't help but feel worried when he looks at the smooth tentacles that are getting closer to some kind of perfection.
However, at this time, Esky was not in the mood to continue taking care of the plants leisurely. He approached the old engineering warlock Dao, whose four claws and even his tail were tightly entangled.
"Wittrik Engineer, maybe you should teleport out of here decently, or I can help you. It's not a good look to be thrown out of Skary's station by this thing."
With a flash of green mist, Vitrik, whose face was full of resentment, disappeared into the tentacles, and a green brilliance also flashed around Eski.
About ten minutes later, in the hiding place of the betrayed lord.
The engineering warlock clinked a glass of Skaven beer newly arrived from the big city with Eshiliga, and then poured the green-yellow bubble liquid into his stomach.
"Although it actually didn't take long, it feels like I haven't had this drink in thirty years."
Esky stared at the glass bottle in his hand and said with nostalgia.
This thing is the more suitable part of the drinkable part of the Skry beer factory in Skavenmordu, and is used to supply it to warlords everywhere at a high price to meet their needs that are higher than those of ordinary clan rats.
Those that are not suitable for drinking will be provided to soldiers on the front line as combat medicine.
The power of a large amount of warpstone refining wastewater, as well as a little alchemy, is enough to make the clan rats who drink this stuff feel the need to sacrifice themselves for the horned rat and feel the desire to fight, and slightly strengthen their limbs. However, what really makes that low-quality product popular is that it seems to be that for some unknown reason, it can reduce the dissatisfaction of the lower-level rat people against the upper-level rat people to a certain extent and reduce the risk of rebellion and assassination.
There was about a quarter of the wine left in the bottle, and after the number of roasted aberrations had also dropped sharply, Eshiliga slowly spoke.
"The heads of the five leaders were thrown into the pit under the parliament, and the procedural joints on Ikrit's side were also solved."…
"Then, then I can move with peace of mind."
Eski frowned, and due to his drunkenness, his words became more intermittent and unclear, so that Eshiriga moved closer to try to hear what he was saying.
"Although I went to avoid the Gray Prophet, in the final analysis, the spellcasters in your hands are too weak, and I am the only one who can fight against the Gray Prophet."
"But I have to find a way to solve this thing. You should try your best to delay the time for the Gray Prophet to take over various places."
"I'll give you something new next time. I still have about 5,000 dimensional coins."
As if he was really drunk, Eski squinted his eyes and took out a lead box.
"By the way, take this thing."
Eshiriga seemed to have sobered up in an instant
Like, he immediately stood up and took a few steps back.
After so many years of intelligence work, he certainly knows the inhibitory effect of lead on dimensional stone products.
Pulling the lead box back, Esky explained with his claws.
"There is a short knife inside, which allows your ordinary assassins to penetrate the dimensional force fields of some engineering warlocks and gray prophets. It is the thing like a shield."
"However, there are some risks. With this thing, you need to be prepared for physical mutations."
With that said, Esky opened the box and covered it with a dimensional force field. What appeared inside was a short knife about 30 centimeters long.
The weighted ball spur at the lower end keeps its balance just slightly above the handle of the knife. The reason why Esky wrapped it in a lead box was because of the green blade and the approximately ten figures engraved on it.
Three runes of destruction.
The glowing green color is because of its material.
This material is an alloy created by Eski through alchemy using the dwarves' Grimnir and warpstone.
Although, according to Esky's own estimation, this is definitely not comparable to the Corrupted Blade that the Skaven will later build with the full strength of the Council of Thirteen and the two caster clans.
This alloy material can be regarded as an experimental replica.
Although it is not as powerful as the material of the Corrupted Blade, with the destruction runes carved by Esky himself and the enchantment and strengthening with Nagash's spell, it is enough to penetrate dimensional force fields below 100. p>
"This dagger, and the remaining five thousand dimensional coins are all yours, but I hope to see Vitrik's head in a few days."
Eshiliga looked up and saw that the face above Eski's lips that were flushed had become completely intoxicated.
"Eski Engineer Warlock, you are indeed more valuable than that Vitrik."
The rebel leader took a sip of wine and looked at the green smoke that suddenly disappeared in front of his eyes.
About a few hours later, the Witch Spirit, whose belly was slightly bulging, and the baby mouse in her arms, together with the Med clan, followed Eski on the way to the southern stronghold.
The Mede clan went berserk several times on the road, clearing away several small tribes along the way as well as the rat-predating predators wandering underground.
Esky even discovered the nine-year-old rat who wanted to live longer. After lamenting the impermanence of the world, he continued to worry about himself...
Asking Wu Ling to hold the mirror and flashlight in his hands, Eski could clearly see the neck he was scratching. Just now, the foreign body sensation here became quite serious, and he needed to see what was going on. p>
The energy of magic allowed him to discover the strangeness here earlier than his vision.
Lines containing the smell of necromantic magic grow on the neck, and the strange green lines also contain the power of life magic. The strange plague intertwined with life and death is constantly spreading in Eski's body.
The white brilliance still flows between the lines, and under the power of Moonlight Girl, the plague that was originally supposed to be suppressed was resurrected again.
Although they are expanding very slowly this time, they are indeed expanding.
"Fuck!"
Esky was angry and used a teleport to the surface, but now is not a day when the white moon will appear.
Now is the time when the sun is about to set, and the moon does not appear in the sky at the same time as the sun. Whether there will be moonlight tonight, especially the white moonlight that is not green, is still unknown.
In particular, engineering warlocks have almost no research on the astronomy of this world. At most, they can remember a few stars that can strengthen the wind of heaven.
Returning to the marching tunnel, using the souls of several slaves to sacrifice the patterns Lilith mentioned in succession only slowed down the spread a lot.
What's going on?
Esky's eyes seemed to have noticed quite naturally some large books on the rat cart. They had not been turned over much since he got Nagash's spell book. Female Ganqi
nine
Volume book.
Naturally? There must be some conspiracy in this.
Esky concluded with certainty, approaching the nine volumes at the same time, and opened a page very naturally.
This page is quite a "coincidence", it is the treatment method for the plague.
A series of coincidences that belong to Nvganqi, of course, cannot be a coincidence.
Although he knew it was a trap, his fear of death made him read it carefully.
At the same time, further south, it was almost dark in the Astri Palace.
Alkadiza and his brother sipped the southern spirits. According to Asa, this distilled liquor was far more suitable for the Astri people than the beer and wine of Laemia.
"So, do you really want an inhuman thing to be your wife? And we all know that she was once another person's wife."
Asa asked his brother, looking as kind as possible.
Although he has always known that there is such a brother, Asa actually does not have that deep feelings for Alkadiza. On the contrary, he is somewhat concerned about the impact that his behavior may have on the family.
"Emperor Settra once married the incarnation of the covenant, the Daughter of the Sun, as his wife in order to control the power of the gods."
Alkadiza said sternly.
Until now, he still believes that the current decision is not due to his own selfishness.
"For strength and stability in Nehekhara? What have you learned over the years."
"Lebalas is quite depressed now. The Zantari and Ka-Sabai in the west have about the same power as Astri. Even if we add Quata, Khemri, Lahmia, and Nehekhara,
It is far less powerful than it was back then. Even though the bronze armor on your bodies has turned into steel armor."
"Nehkhara needs new strength."
"Even if it comes from an evil usurper?"
"Compared to the evil I saw, that could even be considered normal."
