Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

Chapter 373 Resonance
Since Ku Ga returned to Hesiota, Caledor and his party's short trip to the Lizardmen city came to an end. Before entering the rainbow bridge for teleportation, Master Ma called Imrik to the Pyramid of Stars in the Southern Sky.

Sitting on the stone sedan chair, Master Ma also showed the temperament of the leader of the lizard people. He was no longer chatting with Imrik before. The bronze crowns swayed and collided with each other, matching the solemn appearance of Slann. Tell the elf cubs some revelations.

"Imric, Sotek's prophecy shows that you have an important position in it. The messenger of the Forked Serpent is ready, and you should be too. The Oldest Son will support you."

Slann's tone seemed very solemn. During the past few days, it was thinking about whether to throw Imrik to the southern Great Forest Sea, and then fight against the rats together with Tehenhauin, but it got The results show that now is not the best time.

For the enemy of the big plan like the Skaven Ratman, Master Ma's attitude is determined to destroy. Previously, he had to guard against the threat of chaos. The threat is getting more and more serious. Since the elf cub is a good man, he can also be sent to the southern Great Forest to fulfill Sotek's prophecy.

Imrik scratched his head and couldn't help thinking for a moment.

Fighting the Ratmen is the most effective way to stop the destruction from growing. The Dark Gods can spawn Martian soldiers in the Chaos Wasteland and Chaos Demon Realm, but the Ratmen really need food to support them, and they are also very interested in Sotek. If Help Tehenhauin get rid of Lustria's Plague Clan, then he can be brought to the old world and continue to carry out precision strikes against rats.

But the progress of the colony can't be left behind, and the first task is to build a large number of strongholds in the north of Du Luqi.

After trying to understand some things, Imrik explained his thoughts to Master Ma,

"Caledo will prioritize the completion of the colony, at least forming a settlement that can supply the expedition to the southern Great Forest Sea."

"And this premise is to attack Durucci in the north. I hope that the Sun Legion can cooperate with Caledor."

Master Ma Weiwei raised his head, expressing his agreement with this approach, but still made a request,
"Don't lay guide stones in Lustria, your poor imitation will lead to loopholes in the great guardianship."

After finishing speaking, regardless of what Imrik wanted to say, he waved his big hand and disappeared in place.Master Ma could see that the first teleportation was successful because the elf cub was unprepared, but the second time he was attacked by a sneak attack, and now he won't suffer from this kind of loss again.

And Imrik didn't have the idea of ​​continuing to chat with Master Ma. Sotek's prophecy has never been understood. Special treatment of the saint, who is buried in Chakua.

Then a consciousness that was initially born from it was influenced by the lizardman consciousness headed by Tehenhoe, and formed a new god in the subspace, or a young ancient saint, so the relationship between himself and the Sotek sect is a bit It's complicated. It's completely impossible to judge the race of the Old Sages with common sense. After all, no one knows what their origin is.

After coming out of the Pyramid of Stars in the Southern Sky, he looked at Ku Ga, who was leading a group of standard teams, and Imrik nodded, indicating that it was all right.

This ancient blood warrior is well respected, not only in Hesiota, he also often joins the army of several other temple cities, obeying Slann's instructions to destroy the enemy of the grand plan.

But just as he entered the Rainbow Bridge and was waiting for the energy from the spirit vein network, a strong palpitation suddenly appeared in Imrik's body. This feeling was so strong that it seemed to go deep into the blood, causing a strong resonance.

Since returning to the medieval world, the dragon transformation that has never been performed has resurfaced again, with dense scales appearing on the arms, face, and chest. The feeling of this dragon transformation is so strong, as if the whole person is being burned by flames.

Imrik resisted the stinging pain all over his body, pushed Davian away who wanted to support him to ask what was going on, stood up and looked to the south, a resonance came from afar, not a fighting spirit Not with hatred, but a call, a call of the race.

Spread your palm and look at it for a while, fine and dense scales appeared in the palm, the scales were still pure black as before, but between the gaps of the scales, there appeared traces like red lines, the flowing blood slowly seeped from the fingertips to the arm, within a moment , the network compiled by the red thread appears in the hand.

The emergence of this incident made Imrik immediately connect to Minasnir, asking if there was anything abnormal in its body, and after getting it, he slowly explained what happened to him.

After a long silence, Lao Mi expressed his opinion, with a very heavy tone, "It seems that our guess is not wrong, the father of the dragon does have some connection with Sotek."

After finishing speaking, Prescott in the capital city of the soul also asked what happened to Imrik. A layer of blood mist filled the dark yellow sky. Although it was blurry, he could still feel clearly this change.

Imrik didn't answer this question, but looked at the distant sky, the place where the call came from, secretly clenched his palms, then retreated from the dragon form, and walked towards the Rainbow Bridge in silence.

The affairs of the Sotek sect must be involved, and Ingerthos must be asked to return to the Dragon Rest Temple to ask the Emperor Dragon what happened at the dawn of creation.

…………

And in Oxo, which is very far away from Hesiota, a bloody sacrifice is being carried out at the top of the pyramid, and thousands of rats are dragged upwards, bound by the Skinlizards.

Tehenhauin, who presided over the blood sacrifice, danced an unknown dance at the top of the pyramid, intending to use this method to get Sotek's attention first, and then deliver a sacrifice that satisfied everyone.

"By these sacrifices summon the mighty serpent, praise him, beg him with blood. The serpents hoarse, and the reward is swift: it will bring death down in countless blood. Sotek destroys the rats, And destroy the plague, whose mighty power is feared by all rats."

The words of praise came from the prophet's mouth, and then he took out the heart of the plague priest from the leather bag and put it in a large basin polished by lapis lazuli.

Under the custody of the Skinks, a rat was sent to the prophet's sacrificial knife. Tehenhauin grabbed the rat's head, smeared the knife on its neck, and let the blood flow into the big basin.

This basin seems to be bigger than imagined, the blood of hundreds of rats just showed some blood stains, and a rat whose blood was dried by a celebrity was thrown into the [-]-meter steps, waiting to be devoured by the snakes.

But Tehenhauin was not satisfied, he continued to fanatically chanted the name of the snake god, one by one the rats passed by his hands, sending blood into the bowl, and after successfully sacrificing the 560th rat man After falling, the large basin polished with lapis lazuli was finally full, and the original green appearance also turned into a strange dark red, and the heart floated on the foam of blood.

The Snake Xinjian began to stir and cut the heart, and a vortex appeared in the big basin filled with the blood of the rats. The prophet could vaguely see the appearance of the long-horned evil god, but after that, there was a giant snake with a forked tongue.

It picked up the huge basin, walked to the front of the pyramid steps, looked at the jungle infested by rats in the distance, and poured the blood in its hands down.

The flowing bright red liquid flowed down from the rock steps, and those rat corpses that were touched by the blood seemed to have encountered corrosive agents. Their bodies, which were still intact, immediately became shriveled and abnormal, like a mummified corpse.

The blood gradually became turbulent from the original trickle, and a river of blood spewed out from Tehenhauin's hands. This situation undoubtedly inspired all the lizard people who believed in Sotek, and they all shouted the god of revenge.

Tehenhauin, who is holding a large basin, is undoubtedly the most fanatical. He can feel the joy of Sotek and shout to the world,
"Under its domination, the blood of the Rats flooded the earth.

Under its control, agile snakes rushed out one after another.

Under its control, the giant snake is alive! "
