Heart of Empire Chapter 37: Egg of the Faceless
Dane stared at a meat ball in front of him in a daze.
Four hours ago, Dane set off from Ghost Knife Port with his troops and headed towards the freshwater lake in the east, planning to wipe out the faceless settlement completely. After several hours of marching, they soon arrived at their destination and found the Faceless Tribe near the freshwater lake.
There are only dozens of Faceless Men who have escaped from Ghost Knife Port, and they are not a threat at all to the army led by Dane. Even if they were still struggling, when Dane and Lancelot took the lead and used thirty sword dancers as arrows to attack two hundred mercenaries, even one of those faceless men would not be able to face each other. If he didn't hold on, he was defeated in an instant.
There is no need to repeat the battle process. All in all, the result is that none of the sleepless people who managed to escape from Ghost Knife Port survived, and all died in the hands of Dane.
After eliminating all the faceless men, Dane led the team into the faceless man's settlement, intending to see if he could collect some spoils.
These faceless people seem to have their own civilization. In this settlement that had been slaughtered by Dane and others, Dane saw buildings that looked like houses.
Although Dane couldn't believe that these round things that seemed to be made of some kind of organic matter were the 'houses' in his concept, but when he entered it and took a look, he found something similar to a bed and a table. , chairs and the like, he had to admit that this should be where the Faceless Men lived.
The loot was not found, but something very special was found: these meat **** placed in front of Dane.
This meatball is about half the height of a person, in the shape of an oval egg, and its purple color looks quite strange. On the surface of the meat ball, there are small granulation sprouts growing outside like barbs, and mucus is secreted from the granulation. Overall, this meatball is disgusting to look at.
Dane had never seen this thing before, and he asked, "Who can tell me, what the **** is this?"
On the side, Delin pulled out his own arrow from the head of the Faceless Man he shot, and replied casually: "It's an egg."
"Damn you!" Golobo the half-orc cursed at the side, and at the same time gave his own answer, "That's a tumor, like it grows out of a person's disease, I was in the previous tribe I've seen it before, and they look about the same."
Sacco said seriously: "You two, don't talk nonsense if you don't know. Mr. Faro, you have seen a lot of things, come and see, what is this?"
Leaning on a wooden stick, Fal'o walked over from not far away, leaned over to the meat ball in front of Dane, took a closer look, and even touched it twice, but it was covered with paste. Mucus from hands.
Dane looked disgusted and couldn't help but stay away from him. On the other hand, Fal'o himself didn't care at all, and wiped off the mucus on the brown robe on his body, and then said to Dane: "This should really be an egg."
"Haha!" Before Dane could speak, Golobo on the side laughed loudly, and this mindless half-orc said to Delin, "You're lucky, you got it right."
Delin shrugged, not intending to be as knowledgeable as this guy at all.
Golobo didn't think it was boring either. He had long been used to Delin's casual look of not caring about anything.
Dane said: "Golobo, open this egg and let us see what is hatching inside this bird egg."
Golobo likes to do this kind of thing the most. With a grinning grin, he raised his axe, walked up to the meaty egg that was half a man's height, mustered up his strength, and with one stroke of the axe, he gave the barbed, purple-blue meaty egg that was half a man's height to the ground. Split into two pieces. Large streams of mucus sprayed out from the sliced meat and eggs, splashing Golobo all over.
"Bah, bah, bah..." Golobo quickly backed away. The mucus was not poisonous, but it had a foul smell, and it was very disgusting to stick to his body.
Too lazy to care about this reckless guy, Dane saw a scene that surprised him: inside the meat egg that was cut in half, there was a curled up creature, which seemed to be shrunk down by one size. The faceless people are average!
"This is really an egg!" Delin leaned over from the side and said in amazement, "I didn't expect that those faceless people were born from this kind of egg. No wonder, I came from their settlement. , there is no gender difference.”
Sacco said on the side: "This is the root of evil, Dane, I suggest that we destroy all the meat and eggs, lest new faceless people will be born from it."
His proposal is quite reliable, and Dane is planning to do so. However, Faro on the side had a different opinion.
I just heard the druid say: "Collect these things and keep them, we have killed all the adult faceless ones, and these meat eggs probably won't hatch~IndoMTL.com~ Moreover, I should have told you before, Dane, these faceless people should be worshipers of an evil god, and these meat eggs are good sacrifices to the gods of the good camp, and they will be useful. "
"Huh?" Dane remembered that when he cut off the faceless man's head, he also received a prompt from the system, saying that it was a "head of a Cthulhu worshiper", which was a sacrificial item . In this way, this thing may be really useful.
So, Dane decided to keep all these meat and eggs.
No one would question his order, and soon, all the unhatched meat eggs in the entire Faceless settlement were collected, strung together with hemp rope, and prepared to be brought back to Ghost Knife Port. Go inside the warehouse.
Now, there are not a few sacrifices in Dane's hands. After several battles, he has accumulated more than two hundred heads of Cthulhu worshipers, and with these eggs, there are about three hundred sacrifices in total. It's not a problem to keep these things, he always has to find a way to use them.
For this method, we still need to get ideas from Auriel Duo. He remembered that in the construction list of Aurianadu, there was a building that should be able to help him: the temple.
You can tell from the name that a building like a temple must be related to the construction of faith. Originally, Dane didn't pay much attention to faith building—even his own safety problem hadn't been resolved yet, so what faith should he think about? Moreover, he himself is a complete disbelief.
However, now that he has to consider the issue of using up the offerings, the temple has to be built. He faintly felt that there must be surprises waiting for him~IndoMTL.com~Welcome all book lovers to visit and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all in~IndoMTL.com~Mobile phone users please go to read.
