From Skaven to God of War

Chapter 291, Bloody Sacrifice
The end that awaits these poor abandoned creatures is bound to be bad.

In fact, when they themselves realized this, the despair and chaos could no longer be suppressed. The battle on this battlefield was over, and now only the long and arduous finishing work remained.

Neither the noble coalition nor the royal knights chased after the madly running rat-man. Chasing rat-men in the dark was not a very smart idea.

The finishing touches are tricky.

The ratmen that were left behind fled in all directions, their eyes red. They would do anything to stay alive, and of course, they would also do something like fighting you to the death.

The best way to deal with them is to ignore them at this time and leave them a way out. These unlucky guys will kill each other in the chaotic escape, and finally run away and disappear in the mountains.

However, neither the noble coalition nor the royal knights chose to do so, choosing instead to kill as many ratmen as possible in the war.

It's not that they are unaware of the terrifying size of the Ratman Army and the transportation capacity that this terrifying size represents, but how to say it, even if killing these guys will not have much impact on the Ratman Empire, but if they are not killed, you will still see these Ratman things fleeing in a panic on the battlefield in the near future.

The royal knights and the coalition of nobles completed their reunion, after that final moment.

A team was separated from the noble coalition.

The great noble who had been continuously recruiting his subjects just to keep the rats outside the defense line left angrily with his army.

His anger was understandable. After all, he had paid so much but achieved nothing. The rats broke through the defense line and poured into his territory.

There were many nobles who made the same decision. After all, the intrusion of the ratmen meant that a large area might be affected.

At this time, the flames of war are really about to burn them.

The huge coalition of nobles fell apart at this moment. In the end, only four great nobles and the prince remained. During the negotiations, they reached a consensus.

The only problem is to retreat and deal with these invading ratmen first.

The performance of the Eastern Expeditionary Force and the performance of the rat people made these great nobles feel a sense of danger and anxiety.

After a short rest, the army still had to continue to advance. The fallen Golden Province was their next target, in order to cut off the logistics of the fleeing Rat War and to completely drive the rats out of the main continent.

The departure of many great nobles made the noble coalition somewhat weak, and at this time the prince stood up.

The royal family of this corrupt empire had accumulated unimaginable wealth during its long years of rule, enough to support the continuation of this war, and these great nobles did not have to pay much for it.

All you need to do is bow your head again and acknowledge the existence of the imperial family as before.

This was not a kind of coercion. In fact, during the discussion, the prince did not behave arrogantly or toughly. He was polite, gentle, and respectful. He did all of this very well. Even though the hot-tempered guy did not hide his contempt for the current human monarch and his father, he did not lose his manners and could be described as elegant.

Of course, compromise is possible, especially when the danger of the rat people is so clearly presented before them.

But not everyone can compromise.

At that meeting, these great nobles looked at the young man standing before them, a young prince, and thought about the decision in their hearts.

In the end, the four great nobles acknowledged the existence of this young man, although only one of them clearly expressed his conviction and support for the prince, the attitude of the other three was just to agree to expel the rat people first.

But it also made the crumbling and bloated empire suddenly much more stable.

The biggest beneficiary of this war was undoubtedly the prince, although this guy did not necessarily anticipate the ratmen's surprise attack.

The forced surprise attack by Rat War still brought huge hidden dangers and troubles that have not yet ended to this originally perfect event.

The noble coalition will continue to advance, while the royal knights will chase in the direction where the ratmen left.

The Rat War is a big trouble that cannot be ignored and is difficult to avoid. It may be difficult to handle it relying solely on the Royal Knights.

But it's not a big problem.

In the human empire, there are many churches of gods, and these guys are all people who can be of help.

In fact, when the demonic tide arose and problems arose in all the churches of gods, the great nobles began to suppress these churches tacitly and simultaneously.

However, at this time, the decision made by one party regarding this situation was particularly incompatible with that of the other nobles.

The imperial family of the empire is actively embracing many churches of gods.

It is hard to say whether it is right or wrong, good or bad. After all, the many churches of gods that still exist today, and those churches of gods that have survived, are themselves forces that are not weak.

Lianyan Province will serve as a logistics point for the noble coalition forces. The river provides extremely high carrying capacity. Huge amounts of cargo will stop at this dock and eventually be continuously sent to the front line for use by the noble coalition forces.

From afar, the knights and priests of various churches, as well as those popes who are crowned with the title of messengers of God, will join the crusade against the rats.

The situation that Rat War is about to deal with may not be easy, although this arrogant guy may not take these problems to heart.

………….

Lianyan Province, Lianyan City, outside the river port, in the darkness.

Qi finally waited for an opportunity. This guy was unexpectedly patient. He waited for such a long time just for this moment.

The Royal Knight had not been seen for a long time. There were several patrol teams passing by him, but he always endured it very well.

As time passed, the guards were no longer as vigilant as they were at the beginning, but Qi had been observing and enduring the whole time.

He climbed out of the mud, wiping the foul-smelling mud off his cheek hair with his claws.

Long-term patience allows the excited mood to gradually calm down.

Is that so? No!

Qi's eyes were so red, he had been waiting for that opportunity, and now, he finally got it.

The flag with red eyes waved the flag in his hand vigorously, and the ratmen climbed out from the smelly mud one by one. They had been suppressed for too long, and their sharp shouts almost never stopped.

Qi led his army and charged towards the busy river port. No one could react as everything happened too suddenly.

The timing of the flag selection was really good. The royal knights and the various garrisons of the star god, one of which went to attack the Eastern Expeditionary Force from the rear, and the other, after the royal knights left, garrisoned at the sad place where the ratmen of the main continent bled dry.

The location of that sad land was indeed very good, otherwise they would not have been placed there to burn themselves. In order to guard against the attacks of the ratmen and to prevent the ratmen from wantonly passing through this area and breaking into the Lianyan Province, a large number of garrisons were left in that desolate mountain range.

A very critical position.

But their departure created an opportunity for Qi.

The bloody massacre began when the rats broke into the river port.

The rats moved quickly, and the dead ones were quickly moved and piled together.

The sailors, trackers, and other kinds of guys gathered at these river ports were not cowardly but rather tough. They were not much of a problem when facing the groups of ratmen wearing armor and holding spears.

Under the leadership of Qi, the rats quickly defeated the decent resistance of those guys gathered on the dock. The bodies of these guys were quickly collected and piled together by these rat warriors who were like chicken blood.

Qi did not try to attack the tall city not far away from him. The power in his hands simply did not allow him to make such an attempt.

What can be done and what needs to be done are the same thing, which is to complete a sacrifice of not small scale.

To accomplish this, there is no need to capture the high city not far away.

The killing was only halfway done when the flags were already being set up to prepare the sacrificial site.

Fire started on the dock nearby. It seemed that a ratman warrior had accidentally set fire to the dock while killing people, or it might have been intentional.

These guys often do things that are incomprehensible when they are excited.

The flames did not disturb Qi's arrangement of the sacrificial site, although his arrangement was not perfect, and even a little too simple. It can be said that the altar was much worse than that of the Rat War. After all, Qi had just gained the qualifications to touch these sacrificial ceremonies not long ago.

Excited, very excited.

The ratmen warriors began to bring living sacrifices to this bloody sacrificial site.

On the city wall not far away, the city defenders were watching the situation on the dock. They saw the ratmen who suddenly appeared on the dock and kept running wildly, but they did not take even a step out of the city.

It's not that the defenders of this city are unable to fight against the sadistic flag, but they are unable to predict what may happen after leaving the city. The defenders in the city are not sufficient, and there may still be ratmen lurking in the darkness, which makes them more hesitant.

In Gu Lue's view, such hesitation turned into looking ahead and behind, and ended up doing nothing.

Flames were raging on the dock. Normally, even if such a fire started, it could be extinguished quickly. After all, there was a wide river not far in front of them, and putting out the fire only required a few trips back and forth.

But at this time, no one was putting out the fire, and screams of fear and angry curses appeared at both ends of the area.

The area near the pier is not completely empty. There is a small town. The town exists because of the pier. Relying on the advantage of distance, it is relatively comfortable, although not far away there is a tributary that leads directly to the city.

But it is obvious that the consumption in Lianyan City is not affordable for ordinary crew members and trackers.

As a result, various service industries naturally flourished in the town.

At this moment, screams rang out. Even if the world was dark, as long as the river was not interrupted and the pier was still turning, the days seemed to have not changed much.

Until the rat-men broke in.

The hunchbacked ratmen knocked on doors and windows wantonly and broke the glass. They broke into this small town and began to look for sacrifices. Their scarlet eyes scanned and peeked at everything in the room through the broken windows.

It is best not to make any sound at this time, otherwise these rat people will detect your voice.

A scream was heard, and a plump woman met the eyes of the rat man who was peeping out of the window. She shouted loudly in fear, saying that the rat man had seen her.

The spear smashed into the house through the broken window. As it was stirred, the remaining glass fragments all fell off, and a gray-black head poked in.

A ferocious expression appeared on his face until a dark object enlarged in his eyes. The ratman warrior wanted to retract his head, but it was obviously too late.

Well, it seems that the owner of this house, the plump woman, is not completely unable to respond.

A rough iron rod was lifted high by the plump woman, and then dropped continuously. The rat warrior began to struggle, but was stuck in the open window for a while and could not pull it out.

People who deal with those rude guys are certainly not too kind.

Although such a scene has definitely never been seen before, this plump woman is strong enough.

Iron rods kept falling down accompanied by screams, one by one. The black rat warriors gradually became motionless under the beating, and the woman kept gasping for breath.

But this is not the end.

Outside the door, the rustling sound did not stop. The woman plucked up her courage and pushed the rat warrior stuck in the window out, accompanied by the sound of a corpse falling to the ground.

Pairs of scarlet eyes looked at her at the same time in the darkness.

He collapsed on the ground. It was obvious that this situation could not be solved by being tough or not.

Soon after, the town was also engulfed in flames.

The captives, big and small, were strung together and pulled in front of the flag, and the crooked altar had been painted.

Qi was very excited, as this was the first time he presided over a sacrificial ceremony himself.

The ratmen warriors holding the flag were also very excited because this was a sacrifice in which they could participate.

But such a scene is not friendly to the captured humans.

The sacrifices of the ratmen were bound to those fixed elements long ago.

Blood and death.

Various sacrifices were beheaded one by one in Qi's excitement. Due to the haste they came, not even a pool of blood could be dug, and the warm blood just flowed on the ground.

The scene was so bloody, but Qi was thoughtful enough to carefully arrange the heads one by one.

This was his first sacrifice, a regular bloody sacrifice.
