Like the previous Beast God Festival, if there are orcs from various tribes who have mastered the secret skills of the royal family, there is basically no need to try to get the perfect skull gem from them, because the sacrifices from their families are their first choice.
The perfect skull gem is as important to the sacrifice as the human wizard's need for the top magic stone.
If a large magic circle does not have a perfect skull gem, it will not be able to function at all.
The perfect skull gem will only appear once every hundred years in all the major death places or artificial death places in the entire orc empire, and only in the sacrifice of the beast god can it be harvested once every ten years.
The dead land needs to be maintained, and all it needs is a large number of corpses. The good thing is that the Peak orcs among the orcs are born to make corpses. As long as there is enough food, there will be a steady stream of Peak orcs.
Even with this kind of investment, the Dead Land can only produce some ordinary quality death air condensation skeletons. Sometimes, if you are lucky, better skeletons will appear, but there are too few perfect skeleton gems, which makes some large magicians in the Orc Empire The array can only be left empty.
However, only one kind of skull gem will appear in the Beast God Festival, which is the perfect skull gem. This is considered by the priests to be a gift from the Beast God, and this gift is given once every ten years, which also makes the priests pay more attention to the Beast God. There is a certain expectation attached to the festival.
In previous years' Beast God Festival, there would be many high-level priests waiting outside, in order to obtain the perfect skull gem from the orcs in the festival space as soon as possible.
This year alone, due to the impact of the war, everything has to give way to preparations for the war. Therefore, only the wolf cavalry commander level will participate in the Beast God Festival this time. This makes all high-level priests very interested in this Beast God Festival. All lost interest.
The senior wizard Dono was forcibly assigned, and due to the lack of middle and low-level priests, he had to preside over the selection. He thought it was a waste of energy and fruitless task, but who knew that he would see someone with special secret skills? of Abel.
A few days later, on October 15th, the junior priest of Enli appeared in the square of the Temple of the Beast God. At this time, the square was divided into two areas. On one side were thirty orcs who had passed the selection, and on the other side were the orcs who had been eliminated.
"The Beast God Festival is about to begin. All the orcs who have passed the selection are here to gather!" Enli's junior priest shouted loudly.
The thirty orcs who had been prepared for a long time now had a rare bath and purification, and all their armor and equipment were wiped clean. Everyone came to the front of Enli's junior priest with solemn expressions.
Abel stood at the top of the team. This was the recommendation of everyone. The orcs themselves respected strength. He was the strongest, so he naturally ranked first.
"All wargs, follow me!" Enli's junior priest looked at the thirty refreshing orcs with satisfaction. This was a sign of respect for the beast god. He waved his hand and said.
The junior priest of Enli jumped on a warg, and everyone also got on their mounts and followed him towards the Nammu Mountain.
Nanmu Mountain looked ordinary, but along the way, Abel discovered countless death energy formations, which surrounded the entire Nanmu Mountain.
The tight defense here made him extremely lucky. If he hadn't been the captain of the Beecher Wolf Cavalry, he wouldn't have been able to enter Nam Mountain without being discovered without 'teleportation'.
After entering Nam Mountain, all the orcs dismounted from their mounts and led their mounts forward.
There is a stone road under your feet, and each stone is carved with different patterns. There are various beasts, battle scenes, important historical moments of the orcs, the scenery of the orc empire, etc. Almost everything related to the orcs is Appearing on the stones on the stone road.
Although Abel is a human, he feels that from the moment he sets foot on this stone road, all the orcs seem to be walking like a pilgrim, and every step they take is the history and glory of the orcs.
The team moved forward silently, not walking very fast, and Enli's junior priest showed no intention of urging them. It was near noon that the team arrived at a huge stone wall.
At this time, senior priest Dono had already stood in front of the stone wall with his eight skeletons. The stone wall was very smooth and had no pattern. In front of the stone wall was a concave stone platform.
"Sir, thirty orcs are here to participate in the Beast God Ceremony!" Enli's junior priest said respectfully to Dono's senior priest.
"Well, let's get started!" Senior Priest Dono nodded and said.
He was not satisfied with this year's festival because there were too few orcs participating. There were no orcs even watching the ceremony this year. But what could be done? The orc empire was already facing a critical moment of life and death, even for such an important sacrifice as the Beast God Festival. Activities must also give way.
"Carry the sacrifice!" Enli's junior priest shouted loudly.
Following his voice, a team of twenty Peak Knights came from the mountain road nearby. The Peak Knights were not riding on the symbiotic pigs. The twenty symbiotic pigs had living spiritual beasts on their backs. , a total of twenty.
"Sacrifice!" Enli's junior priest shouted again.
A Peak knight stepped forward and placed a spirit beast on the concave stone platform, then took out a short knife and stabbed it into the neck of the spirit beast. The spirit beast struggled desperately, but how could the tied spirit beast resist? Come on.
The blood flowed down the neck of the spirit beast into the concave stone platform, and the spirit beast was also struggling on the stone platform.
As the blood flowed in, the blood slowly seeped into the concave stone platform. As more blood seeped in, the concave stone platform emitted a burst of green light, and then the struggling spirit beast was engulfed by the green light.
After just a few seconds, the green light disappeared, along with the struggling spirit beasts. The concave stone platform became clean again, and it seemed that no object had ever appeared on it.
Abel did not sense any mana fluctuations or death energy fluctuations. There was just a strange energy that appeared and disappeared with the green light, which he could not understand.
The process of sacrifice went on leisurely, and a famous spirit beast was placed on the concave stone platform, and then disappeared.
Senior Priest Dorno watched with some heartache as these spiritual beasts were bloodletted and sacrificed one by one. Although he knew that this was a gift to the Beast God, if he could choose, he would rather stop this Beast God Festival than What a waste of these twenty spiritual beasts.
You must know that these spirit beasts are not randomly selected. Every spirit beast is an intermediate-level spirit beast, and they are all spirit beasts with the strongest energy and blood.
For these intermediate-level spirit beasts, the temple dispatched countless combat forces and killed many people before they could capture all twenty spirit beasts.
Because the Beast God Sacrifice cannot be stopped, the chief priest of the Beast God Temple has obtained the Beast God's information, and must conduct a Beast God Sacrifice every ten years, and the Beast God will give corresponding rewards in return.
These sacrifices are important energy to ensure that the Beast God can continue to exist, so even if you cannot get enough feedback this year, you must still sacrifice the sacrifices.
Abel was also extremely surprised at this time. Although he could not recognize all the spiritual beasts in front of him, the aura revealed by each one was so powerful that they were the top combat power among the intermediate-grade spiritual beasts.
It is not difficult to kill an intermediate-grade spiritual beast. The difficulty lies in two points. One is to find the spiritual beast. Spirit beasts are not easy to find, because spirit beasts have a strong sense of place, and the areas they choose are in uninhabited mountains, forests, lakes and other places. If you want to find them, you need enough people to search for them.
The second is to capture spiritual beasts alive. Spirit beasts, especially powerful ones, are easy to kill but very difficult to capture alive.
There are many spiritual beasts that will directly explode their crystal cores when they know they are about to be captured. You can imagine how difficult it is to capture an intermediate-level spiritual beast alive.
And these twenty intermediate-level spiritual beasts all had to be captured alive, and the price involved was so high that Abel was also deeply surprised.
After twenty intermediate-grade spirit beasts were sacrificed, the concave stone platform slowly became crystal clear, and the stone behaved like crystal. Then a green light was emitted from the concave stone platform, directly towards the huge stone platform. Mirror-like stone walls.
After the concave stone platform emitted this green light, it seemed that all the energy of the twenty intermediate-level spirit beasts sacrificed just now was stimulated, and the surface of the crystal returned to its original stone surface.
