After the men opened the wooden box, the "gift" inside was revealed.
It was clearly a coffin.
A good coffin.
Whether it is gold foil wrapping or lacquer painting, it looks extremely delicate. The pattern on the cover is a pitch-black short whip, which is the battle pattern of the Iron Whip Clan.
Rubaka Bloodwhip was stunned at first, and then he couldn't help but sneer.
"That's it? I thought they would put something more to scare me," he shook his head. "Heads, ears, human skin... This is what Iron Sand City does. Coffins? The extreme south doesn't need this extra effort. stuff!"
All the dead here will be thrown into the desert, and then turned into bones under the high temperature baking. No matter what the status in front of them, there is no difference after death.
Only northerners need such a twisted wooden box.
Even if you die, you have to imprison yourself like an eternal cage.
Osha's bitch thinks this will scare me? He took a deep breath, having been a slave in Greycastle for too long, I'm afraid she has forgotten the way the sand people threatened.
But the insult still made Rubaka goosebumps.
"Bring my axe!" he yelled.
Immediately, a clansman resisted a large cast-iron axe, with a handle nearly a person tall and a dark axe head the size of a head. Although he was the patriarch of the Iron Whip Clan, his favorite weapon was this heavy battle axe. Whether it's fighting beasts in the desert or beheading challengers, it wields a great hand.
In the face of absolute power, any block or parry is meaningless, as long as it hits, even wearing northern armor is a one-shot kill.
Of course, it also drank the blood of the Aosha clan, including women and children, as well as children.
He forgot to tell Drow Silvermoon that those exiled did not reach the Endless Cape. Because he detoured to the front of the escort team in advance, and then chopped them to death one by one in the yellow sand.
It's not that he is worried that they will get revenge one day, he just enjoys the thrill of this kind of killing.
coffin
fuck it.
Rubaka spit, shouted loudly, raised the battle axe in both hands, and swung it down at the cover with the pattern of the iron whip.
"Crack!"
A large number of sparks emerged from both sides of the axe blade, as if they had hit something iron and stone.
The coffin was not divided into two as he thought, and the touch from the handle told him that this exquisite wooden box was by no means empty and it was stuffed with things!
However it was too late.
After the spark burst, a more dazzling light bloomed from the inside of the coffin, then filled the entire hall in an instant, and quickly expanded outwards.
But Rubaka didn't see it all.
When the light swept across his body, his eyes and tongue had been crushed and torn apart by the rapidly expanding air waves, followed by his head, limbs, internal organs...
With an earth-shattering loud noise, all the residents of Iron Sand City saw this incredible scene!
Flames and thick smoke spewed out from the bottom of the Rising Sun Stone Castle, like a furious ground fire; the garden wall was razed to the ground by an invisible giant hand, and the entire stone castle seemed to tremble upwards violently, and then fell apart in the thick smoke.
First, the walls peeled down, then the columns and roof. The falling stones accelerated the eruption of smoke, and finally the collapsed stone fort sent the smoke column up into the sky, connecting with the gray sky.
There seems to be a "tower to the sky" in the iron sand city.
…
Thuram in the Oasis Tavern also saw this scene, and it was only at this moment that he understood what the story that Iron Axe slowly told before was referring to.
The coffin filled with snow powder, the weight reduced by the goddess, the flint sticking to the cover, the fuse connected to the top of the board... Whether the coffin is violently destroyed or the cover is opened normally, it will attract an unparalleled thunder. Although he didn't quite know what snow powder and pull fuse were, he still understood Lei Ting.
With the muffled sound that can spread for several miles, and the smoke column observed in the blood-stained land, it is conceivable how amazing this inconceivable thunder is.
If he hadn't lied to himself, the scene in the Iron Sand City was really caused by that coffin, and the Iron Whip Patriarch should not have survived.
It's just that Thuram didn't expect that the other party would really attack the fourth-ranked Iron Whip Clan before the duel, and he would still take revenge in such a blatant way.
"You..." He looked at the iron axe with the same expression as before, but couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.
"Back then, Rubaka Bloodwhip tarnished the sacred duel and failed the expectations of the Three Gods. For a person who has already lost the qualification for a duel, how could I have a fair contest with him in the burning land?" Tie Axe said calmly, "Rubaka and his people are nothing more than a bunch of cowards. I didn't take them as duel opponents from the beginning."
"But... Iron Whip is a big clan after all..."
"Because of this, this kind of ending is more suitable for them, rather than a glorious death in the ring." Iron Axe shook his head, "Besides, the Aosha clan will not violate the rules set by the three gods. Once the opponent surrenders, we will Will put away the weapon and forgive the duelist's life." He paused for a moment, "Think about it, if you were the Iron Whip Patriarch and knew that the Osha Clan was back, what would you do?"
Thuram immediately understood the meaning of the iron axe.
Indeed, breaking the rules once may break the rules the second time. A passover who does not obey the rules of the three gods will bring them endless troubles. Before and after the end, they will attract endless harassment and frame-up from the other party. It is better to crush them completely from the beginning, which is better than trying to prevent them later.
"But... If Rubaka neither opened the coffin nor destroyed it, wouldn't your plan work?" There was only one last question left in Thuram's head.
"The Iron Whip clan elder is violent by nature. He likes to destroy and kill. Guessing his actions is not much more difficult than teasing a monkey." Iron Axe raised the corner of his mouth slightly. After escaping this level, there are still many gifts waiting for him... But now it seems that the three gods will not bless the traitor who betrayed it."
Hearing this sentence, Thuram couldn't help shivering.
He also swore allegiance in the name of the Three Gods when he swore allegiance to Drow Silvermoon and the New Osha Clan.
Iron Axe's last sentence was also a warning to him.
"Then we can have a good talk about business," the half-blood patted his shoulder casually. "The other reason I picked you is because you know the city of iron sand very well. Listen to the people in the oasis say that the desert There's nothing in it that you don't know."
"I've only been here for a long time, and I've heard more stories," Thuram said to Iron Axe, Princess Aosha and the Greycastle forces behind him after defeating the Watch Dogs overnight and easily solving the Iron Whip Clan. They have become more respectful, "But if I know, I will definitely explain in detail."
"Very well, if you want to win the sacred duel, you have to understand the enemy carefully... Let's start with the warriors and goddesses of the major clans." Iron Axe nodded. r
