Struggle in the Steam Age

"God of War is on." A militia who should be descended from the immigrants of the former Holy Visby Empire let out a groan. "How evil is this, and how blasphemous it is."

Lawrence felt that the summary made by the militia was very incisive. The hill of bones in front of him was about two people high, and it exuded the stench of meat. At the bottom of this small hill of corpses are some bones that have been completely ossified, and many of the bones above still retain blood-red flesh.

In fact, many wild beasts have the habit of putting the food wreckage they have eaten in the fifth lair or near the lair, so the smell of stench when exploring the beast cave is common to most people who have had adventures. Very normal thing. But this bunch of things clearly exceeds the upper limit that everyone can tolerate.

Because Lawrence discovered that there were many bones belonging to the intelligent race in this pile of corpses, such as a skull that was obviously a minor. What is horrifying is that the skull is yellow and brittle, and there are residual tooth marks on it. Explain that this poor child was eaten by the goblin.

"Damn it." Nara flew over Lawrence's shoulder and saw the tiny skull he had taken from the huge pile of bones, her face suddenly turned ugly.

In any civilized society, eating intelligent creatures is a taboo. Not to mention the daily edible intelligent creatures. This is the important reason why every race of intelligent creatures and goblins in this world never die.

Therefore, part of the squad began to deploy under the leadership of the Ratman, while others cleaned up the pile of bones. According to Lawrence's order, they will move all these bones to the outside and build a mass graveyard. Later, they plan to ask the priests of the **** of death to pray for a resurrection.

As the bones were removed, a tall golden statue of one person appeared in front of everyone. The first militiamen to find golden light in the bone pile thought they had found gold.

However, after clearing a larger area, they found that some golden colors looked a bit whitish under the light, not looking like gold. The most important thing is that this thing seems to be carved out of a large piece of golden rock, and the rough surface looks like a bunch of small squares.

A fact that even ordinary people know is that if the single gold body is a little larger, there is only one kind of Kotou gold in nature, and the edges of Kotou gold should be rounded. This kind of golden yellow metal with obvious crystal surface should be pyrite, which is commonly known as fool's gold.

After spending most of the day cleaning up this huge pile of bones, a rough pyrite statue carved like a big potato on top of a small potato appeared in front of everyone. But at this time, a palpitating feeling appeared in the hearts of everyone in this cave hall.

"Be careful, this is a high-level goblin **** altar." Just when the white shadow in Lawrence's mind released a cloud of silvery white light to drive out this uncomfortable feeling. The scavenger priest screamed with wide eyes. "It's best for non-professionals to quit this space now."

"All non-professionals immediately exit the cave." Lawrence and Fatina gave orders at the same time. In an instant, those militia fighters who felt uncomfortable withdrew from the space together with the rat people, and only a dozen low-level fighters, Supernatural and Lawrence remained in this cave.

"This altar seems to be alive." As a constructive creature with divine nature, Nora immediately felt the difference of this altar. "What it did just now seems to be a kind of counterattack after discovering our situation."

"--You're right." The scavenger priest looked at Nora floating in the air in astonishment and said with a serious face. At first, he just thought that Nora was just a construct puppet that a spellcaster or a rich man would have. Later, when they saw Lawrence and they had been chatting with this puppet, he realized that she was a construct life.

But now that Nora spoke about the changes in the altar for the first time, the priest realized that Nora was more mysterious than he thought. Of course, this is not the time to consider these issues. He quickly retracted his divergent thinking and spoke to the rest of the people. "This should be a high-level altar. For safety reasons, I think this place should be destroyed now."

"You're right." Lawrence nodded, "But how should it be destroyed? You see, we have only a dozen extraordinary people here. If you want to destroy this level of altar, these people alone cannot guarantee safety. ."

Of course, the pure power of faith in Nora's hand that has been condensed into liquid should be able to destroy this altar. But now Lawrence and the others did not want to expose the abilities that Nora mastered. The most important thing is that this place is not without other methods that can handle this goblin **** altar.

"Now there is only one way." The Ratman priest said with a serious face, "That is, we will build a temporary altar of our lord Bighorn Rat here, and then I will preside over a battle sacrificial ceremony to sacrifice this altar to our lord. "

"Sounds very good." Lawrence nodded, and then asked the next question he cares about. "What you just said was that we are building an altar for your Majesty the Great Horned Rat. So can people like us who are not rat people also participate in such a sacrificial ceremony?"

After all, each deity has different requirements for non-believers to participate in their own sacrifice rituals. Gods such as the **** of knowledge or the goddess of agriculture generally allow non-believers to participate in addition to individual sacrifice rituals, as long as they can maintain their right The respect of the gods is enough.

But some gods are not like this. For example, most of the gods of the elves do not welcome non-believers to participate in any sacrificial rituals about them, while the gods of the dwarves only allow those non-believers to participate in a few related to them. Religious ceremonies, and these rituals are often related to certain festivals.

So at this time Lawrence asked the priest about whether non-believers can participate in the sacrifice. After all, the difference between religions in a world without gods like the previous life will cause death. In this world with gods, this kind of problem is naturally the most important thing, and it must not be neglected.

"My lord is not a conservative god." The Rat Man sacrifice said firmly. "People like you who express enough respect for the Lord of the Lord are allowed to participate in the activities of the Lord's sacrifice~www.ltnovel.com~ If this is the case." After receiving a positive answer, Lawrence nodded. As for other issues, don't worry about it. After all, the big horned rat, as the **** of the rat man, was recognized as an ally by the human gods a long time ago. As a human, participating in the sacrificial ceremony of the rat man can also be carried out with integrity.

For example, Lawrence knew that many human sewer cleaners in cities would pray for the big horned rat statue on the wall of the sewer before working. A small but enthusiastic sacrificial ceremony will be held during the harvest every autumn.

The next step is to build the temporary Altar of the Great Horned Rat. Because it is a cave, a lot of work can be reduced and eliminated. Only a simple layout can be used to build an altar for temporary use.

Soon, a few humans and scavengers dragged a section of the tree trunk from outside the cave, and then a few scavengers and humans with carpenter experience used the tools they had previously carried in order to set up a camp and carved them in accordance with the requirements of the scavenger priest. . Lawrence contributed a palm-sized golden pie and Nora temporarily made a holy emblem.

Finally, when night fell, everything was arranged, waiting for the ratman priest to start.
