In the orc palace, a large group of orc soldiers blocked a side hall. There were only a few people in the hall, only Grot, the orc king Haldane, and a few orcs dressed as shamans.
These orc shamans wearing feathered clothes and colorful faces stood in the palace, surrounding their great shaman. The orc king Haldane and several personal guards stood outside the circle, looking at it with complicated expressions.
A very strange great shaman.
The great shaman, also known as Gro, seemed to have completely ignored the tangled look on Haldane's face. After silently reciting an obscure spell, he turned his head and asked the people around him.
“Are people ready?”
"Already prepared."
As soon as he finished speaking, several more figures came in from outside the palace. They were all dressed similarly to the shamans in the palace. Only the leading orc robe had a golden border, and his face did not look like the other orc shamans.
He usually wears make-up, but looks like an extremely young beastman.
"His Majesty!"
"Master Great Shaman!"
The leading orc came in and saluted Haldane and Grotto one after another. Haldane suppressed the entanglement in his heart and nodded to the other man as a response, while Grotto took the initiative to greet him and brought him to the center of the hall.
.
"Come, let me see you!"
The young orc walking in front of the team is a famous genius among this generation of orcs. At the age of twenty, he already has the strength of a great warrior. It is only a matter of time before he becomes a royal warrior. What is more valuable is that this young orc is also born in
Noble, considered a descendant of the Orc King's family, can be said to have an unlimited future.
At this time, Groo looked at each other and became more and more satisfied. This young body is much stronger than the old shaman's body he currently has. When the transfer of the divine descending is completed, he will have a
With a young body, the strength he exerts may have grown a lot out of thin air.
After looking at the other party for a long time, Grotto nodded with satisfaction and asked the other party.
"are you ready?"
The young orc also nodded heavily and replied:
"Don't worry, Great Shaman, I am willing to sacrifice everything for the kingdom."
"Good boy."
Gro reached out his hand and patted the other party's shoulder, but the moment he stretched out his hand, the other party was slightly frightened.
What kind of hand is that? It's all skin and bones, but it's just a bone hand. The skin on it has dried up, and it's like a mummy fished out of some ancient tomb.
This is the cost of Gro's use of the GPU Spear. With the Great Shaman's body, Gro can still sustain two more fights, but using the GPU Spear consumes too much. Compared with the secret skill used against Richard before, Gro
The consumption is even greater. After showing off his power in the Bailong Valley, the body of the great shaman will no longer be able to support it.
The young man in front of him is the candidate that Gro has already selected. He is young, powerful, and talented...
"From now on, you will be a great shaman!"
After saying that, Groh handed the bone staff representing the great shaman's identity into the hands of the young orc, and several shamans also gathered around him.
After reciting a long and obscure spell, several people suddenly knelt down on the ground, pulled out a short blade from their waists, and cut open their chests.
The blood slowly flowed out along the short blade, which was enough to prove that this knife was by no means a cover-up, but actually stabbed into the heart. After receiving such injuries, several shamans except for groaning at first, did not do anything.
He made other noises, but just let the blood seep out slowly, with a solemn look on his face.
It was not until after losing too much blood that several shamans could no longer hold on and fell to the ground. Gro, who was in the main position, had been watching this strange scene expressionlessly, but when the blood began to form a strange symbol on its own,
When they rushed towards the young orc in the middle, Gro, who was already too old to look good, finally showed a happy face.
"Sure enough, my success was not an accident. The lost magic power has been revived."
But then, Grot felt a little worried.
"Unfortunately, for our clan, the recovery of magic power is not a good thing. Humanity must be dealt with as soon as possible."
Thinking of this, Gro no longer hesitated and slowly stretched out his hand again and placed it on the young orc...
…
The night was deep, the moon was obscured by dark clouds, and the earth was terribly dark. However, the side hall of the palace was brightly lit. A large number of orc warriors were arranged around the side hall, with dragon-hunting crossbows placed at various positions. The orc warriors fired
The torches lit up the area around the side hall as if it were daytime.
The orc king Haldane even stood waiting outside the temple. It was because the great shaman was performing an extremely crucial ritual here.
"His Majesty."
"His Majesty."
Patrolling soldiers passed by Haldane one after another and saluted him, while Haldane nodded in response to these loyal soldiers.
When the patrolling soldiers walked away, an orc officer behind Haldane quietly came up and whispered in Haldane's ear:
"Your Majesty, the Guards are ready. They are all carefully selected and are the most loyal warriors. They have nothing to do with the Shaman Hall. The twenty-four dragon-hunting crossbows can change direction at any time. Now it is
Best opportunity."
Haldane felt a chill in his heart after listening to the other party's words. He could understand the hidden meaning of the other party's words. Now the great shaman's prestige is getting more and more important, which has seriously squeezed the royal power. Basically, the frontline generals have
Under the command of the Great Shaman, Haldane basically only played the role of a logistics officer in the rear. This caused dissatisfaction among the royal party surrounding Haldane. In addition, this time the Great Shaman designated the Rising Sun Cult as the state religion, which promoted
The spread of the Rising Sun Cult has caused serious conflicts with the ancestor worship of shamanism, and has caused dissatisfaction among many orcs. A force actually encouraged Haldane to get rid of this increasingly popular man at the critical moment of the Great Shaman Ceremony.
The strange great shaman.
It's just that as a king, Haldane understands the plight of the kingdom better at this time. If it were in good times, Haldane would definitely consider going with the flow and getting rid of the great shaman who threatened his power in one fell swoop. But at this time, the orc kingdom
Facing a huge crisis, there is no room for internal strife. If we really want to get rid of the great shaman, we have to wait until we defeat humans, not now.
After thinking about the pros and cons, Haldane shook his head firmly and asked in a vicious tone:
"Who told you to do this?"
However, Haldane's words did not make the orc officer feel the slightest fear. Instead, he felt happy. As long as King Haldane did not directly order his arrest, it would be a good idea. He immediately knelt on the ground and advised:
"Your Majesty, tonight is the best opportunity to get rid of the great shaman. He has broken the rules by leading the army as a great shaman. However, as a shaman of our clan, he helps the Rising Sun Cult preach, which is incompatible with the traitor clan.
Wei, as long as your majesty is determined, tonight you can..."
"Shut up!"
"I have my own opinions on matters concerning the Great Shaman, and I don't allow you to teach me how to do it."
Haldane had ruled the Orc Kingdom for so many years, and still had some dignity. After he clearly refused, these orc officers who had not known when they were connected did not dare to force the attack, and in the end they could only continue to kneel on the ground in embarrassment.
"squeak…"
After a while, the door to the side hall opened with a bang. After Haldane glanced back, he looked at the orc officer kneeling on the ground. He had no intention of punishing him, but just said something lightly.
"Get up, forget what happened today, and come with me to greet the Great Shaman."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
When the door to the side hall opened, it also heralded the complete failure of some people's plan tonight, but Haldane's ambiguous attitude made it seem that the plan did not completely fail.
…
"Congratulations to the Great Shaman!"
Haldane came to the gate of the side hall and took the initiative to greet the figures coming out of the hall, with a joyful look on his face, as if nothing in the night had happened.
But after seeing the appearance of the leader clearly, the smile on Haldane's face turned into a look of shock uncontrollably. The one holding the Great Shaman's bone staff and wearing the Great Shaman's iconic attire was a young man.
Orc. Even though he was somewhat prepared, Haldane was still extremely surprised.
"Your Majesty, you don't have to wait here. You are the king of the kingdom. In the orc kingdom, you are the most noble person."
"The great shaman is responsible for the rise and fall of our clan. It is only right that I protect the great shaman here."
Although Haldane was shocked, he quickly recovered and spoke to Gro with a sincere expression.
Gro nodded, glanced at the dense crowd of orc warriors around him, seemed not to notice anything strange, and said to Haldane again:
"White Dragon will join the battle with all its strength soon. We will soon attack Longxi Pass. I must return to the front line immediately. I will leave Monaya to you."
"clear."
Haldane did not doubt Grot's words. He was very clear about what happened in the White Dragon Valley. Naturally, he knew that Gro's current strength was unfathomable and had already subdued the entire White Dragon clan. In addition, there was Xuri
It should be a matter of course that with the full help of the Divine Religion, we can break into Longxi Pass and break the current deadlock.
Haldane's current attitude towards Gro is still to provide full assistance, at least until he defeats humans, he will not make any big moves.
Soon, Haldane led the people away, and the army that had been stationed in the side hall also evacuated. The great shaman had successfully completed the ceremony, and they no longer needed their protection here.
Gro looked deeply at the leaving army, not knowing what he was thinking. Adelillo suddenly appeared next to Gro. With his strength, almost no one in the palace except Gro could stop him.
, as long as you don't assassinate the king, you can enter and leave the palace at will without causing any trouble.
"His Majesty Haldane just wanted to protect you."
It was in Adrilo's interest to protect Gro's strength, so Adrilo was secretly watching Gro when he held the ceremony. Naturally, he also saw the abnormal placement of the dragon-hunting crossbows. The positions of the dragon-hunting crossbows did not look like
For external use, it is like being used to attack side palaces.
Gro shook his head indifferently, not knowing whether it was true or not and said:
"The king of the Lane family is like this, which makes me feel more at ease!"
"It's up to you, as long as it doesn't delay important things."
After that, Adelillo also disappeared into the darkness again, leaving only Gro who was there. After Adelillo left, Gro's hand was taken out from behind. His hand had been touching the same handle.
On a short spear.
"In comparison, this kid Haldane is one of his own..."
