From Skaven to God of War

Chapter 356, Storm Rat Squad

Along with the strange-looking weapon, there was also a tall tower with a faint blue color.

These two things greatly changed the situation of war.

Swarming over and overwhelming the enemy, the rats' strategy that had been implemented for a long time became less effective.

War became something that required steady advance.

This is an extremely painful thing to do, but it has to be done.

The war priests were completely stopped by the river.

Even though I was extremely angry, I could do nothing about it.

Of course, what made the leading war priest most angry was not his own powerlessness, but the good news and progress coming from his colleagues.

This strange-looking army showed no sign of being in the plain province.

Only appeared before their eyes.

The rats' advance into the plain province was unstoppable, although they encountered some minor troubles. They ran into a group of barbarians who had left the plateau and were wreaking havoc in another area.

In other words, the rats took the initiative to find them.

This is a huge team, and also a very valuable asset and achievement.

The rat scouts running in the dark had already locked onto the trail of this group of barbarians.

Leading the large army to chase it, the two sides finally collided at the edge of the plain province.

Endless numbers of rats came pouring in, drowning the group of guys with their sharp and excited shouts. It was a brutal bloody battle, and the final winner was Cave Rat, one of the three rat warlords of the Rat Eastern Expeditionary Force.

To be fair, this is a fairly distinctive guy. He is shorter than the average ratman, and his arms are almost the same length as his legs. He doesn't look like a ratman, but more like a monkey or pangolin.

This was a huge achievement, especially when compared to his colleagues, the incompetent war priests.

But how should I put it? This cave rat who was hastily pushed to the position of ratman warlord might not be able to enjoy this huge achievement because he is going to die.

The barbarian leader was too brave. Together with the ice lizard that could spray frost, they killed so many rats that even the berserk spell could not suppress their morale.

The cave rat had no choice but to join the siege. During the battle, it was bitten by the ice lizard. If it weren't for this guy who was born in the corner of the city and always carried some fresh cave mushrooms with him,
This extremely unpalatable mushroom even caused the Ice Lizard to retch uncontrollably.

Otherwise, he would probably have been bitten in half on the spot.

The retching ice lizard threw the barbarian leader to the ground during the fight, and was pierced into a hedgehog by the swarming ratmen warriors.

The ice lizard was also pierced through the body by the ratmen's terrifying siege crossbow in the subsequent siege, thus bringing this brutal war to an end.

The cave rat was not dead. It crawled out with great difficulty, its body covered in blood and flesh. Its arms were broken into several pieces, which were crushed when it tried to resist the bite of the ice lizard.

The war was won, but the cave rats that had been wailing in their tents for several days were dying little by little.

All the credit was seized by the rat lords sitting in the back.

A grand celebration was even held in the center of the vast scarlet grassland to celebrate the victory, hold a grand sacrifice, and show off the abundant goods to the guys in the Ratman Empire.

It was an extremely lively scene.

Guys from all walks of life in the Ratman Empire have come.

There were as many as 10,000 unruly barbarian warriors and even more captured ordinary farmers. They were executed one by one in this grand ceremony, following the bloody tradition that the Rat War brought to this grassland.

There is nothing to worry about. After all, Shu Zhan is already dead, so the grudges between these rat lords and Shu Zhan are naturally written off.

Densely packed heads were piled together to form a tall tower, announcing the end of the sacrificial ceremony, but the celebration was far from over.

A large amount of goods, many famous rat caravans, and all kinds of things were gathered together on this bloody grassland, under the witness of the tall tower made of heads.

A very lively expo began.

Perhaps this expo could also be called a trade fair. After all, the rat people who come here don’t have many things to consider, only two.

Look at these dazzling array of goods piled together, and buy these dazzling array of goods piled together.

From weapons, armor, food, ratmen, giant rats, rat trolls, to historical stone walls with sacred patterns painted on them, bells made of blood gold, exquisite ritual instruments, and blood mushrooms.

There is almost nothing that is not sold here.

Whatever you need, you can buy it here.

Ratmen farmers who need to fight will appreciate the wide variety of weapons.

The Ratman mercenary captain, who is a vassal of the great, purchases ritual instruments.

The temple guards love the sets of historical stone walls.

The Big Claw priests were observing the giant rats, which were generally of good quality and could be purchased at a slightly lower price.

For a while, the place was extremely bustling. During the expo, several particularly eye-catching items stood out from the dazzling array of goods.

One is the blood mushroom. Of course, it is not the most common kind, the blood mushroom with only some hazy red color, the lowest quality blood mushroom.

It is the kind of red mushroom that looks like it is soaked in blood, red almost black, and is the best quality red blood mushroom.

Absolutely good stuff.

This is a good thing that no one would refuse, but it is a pity that it is not provided without restraint, but thrown out by the rat lords more as a gimmick.

Only a very small amount of red blood mushrooms are provided every day and sold at a not very high price, but it has attracted many rat people to visit. It is an absolute star product.

Another one is the high-level ratman team that was sold as a whole.

Eighteen or twenty-four ratmen warriors form a formation.

A formation of eighteen ratmen warriors is generally equipped with six shield-wielding spear ratmen warriors, six spear ratmen warriors, three ratmen crossbowmen, one rat troll, one ratman scout, and one ratman knight. And this is just the personnel configuration in the gift package, and there is no shortage of other equipment as well.

Twelve sets of half-body plate armor, three sets of superior leather armor, one set of rat troll chain armor, one set of full-body plate armor, twelve spears, three metal round shields, three crossbows, sixty poisoned crossbow arrows, a giant rat, a lance..., there are quite a few scattered things like this, but in general it can be summed up in one sentence.

As long as you pay for the blood mushroom, a complete and well-armed team of ratmen will immediately be under your command.

Very tempting.

The Ratman Squad that was displayed was truly extraordinary, the Ratman warriors in it were almost all a head taller than the average Ratman, and they were basically professional Ratman warriors that had been trained at the Ratman Academy, and their combat effectiveness was also quite extraordinary.

In a public fight, the fighting power of these ratmen squads was clearly demonstrated.

In a huge cage made of simple logs that also served as an arena, on one side was a squad of eighteen ratmen warriors, and on the other side were the barbarian warriors who had been escorted back.

Easily crushed, these barbarian warriors were easily crushed.

Well, even though the Big Claw Priest of the Ratman Caravan had a lot of tricks up his sleeve, for example, the barbarian warriors on the field were often accompanied by hunger, lack of sleep, lack of water, and other problems.

In order to make this exhibition match more shocking, but generally speaking, there shouldn't be any big problems. After all, these barbarians can give full play to their talents in extremely difficult situations.

It's just hunger, lack of water and fatigue. Isn't that enough to demonstrate the combat effectiveness of these rat warrior teams?

Of course, even if there was something fishy, ​​the rats on the field obviously didn't care much at this time.

Amid the splattering blood were the fanatical shouts of the rats gathered here. Everyone was very satisfied with the performance.

Orders and blood mushrooms came to the hands of the big-clawed priest who came up with a new idea. He was grinning so hard that he could hardly close his mouth. With a look of surprise and greed on his face, he took the blood mushrooms into his arms.

Many ratmen have a need for such a team of warriors.

From ratmen farmers to ratmen mercenaries to big claw priests, and then to ratmen priests.

There is a demand for such warrior teams. This is undoubtedly a big business, and this innovative Big Claw Priest is not the first guy to do such business.

In fact, the young ratmen that various breeding houses have been selling are essentially doing this kind of business.

Arms business?

Perhaps that is how it should be described.

It’s just that this guy is the first one to integrate so many things together and sell them.

That's how huge success came about.

In fact, there are still some questions that have not been answered. After all, those extraordinary ratmen in this team of ratmen warriors, where did these guys come from? This has not been answered.

Even the Big Claw Priests who ran the breeding houses were a little confused about this. If they had to explain it, it was as if it suddenly appeared throughout the Ratman Empire.

Among the group of hungry little ratmen, a group of somewhat different guys emerged.

No one understood why this was happening, but even though they didn't understand, it didn't stop the Big Claw Priests from being able to tell at a glance that these little guys were valuable goods that could bring them wealth.

At one point, these breeding houses seemed to have some kind of tacit understanding in hiding these unique cubs. In their excitement, they seemed to think that they had bred unique and rare creatures.

Until finally I found out that everyone had such a rare item in their hands.

In order to sell these ratmen squads better, the Big Claw Priest also gave his products a resounding name, Storm.

Storm Squad, Storm Ratman Squad, Storm Ratman Combat Squad.

Congratulations to the Storm Ratman Squad for winning the title of sales champion in the first Ratman Merchandise Fair.

Although the hidden dangers still exist.

After all, what you bought are not cold weapons. Even if these guys have received professional training, if you cannot control them, it will not be easy to command them well, and you may even lose your life.

The big-clawed priest with a big grin on his face won't specifically warn you about this.

After all, the transaction was completed, and what happened afterwards had nothing to do with him anymore.

But it shouldn't be a big problem. Every ratman who buys the Storm Ratman Squad is probably confident that he can bring these guys under his control.

In this way, the first commodity fair of the Rat Empire came to a successful conclusion.

As the ratmen left one by one, the area returned to the quietness and chaos it was supposed to have.

Some of the guys that were flooding the scarlet grassland came over.

A group of short goblins, who were just as noisy as the ratmen, came over.

The ratmen left a lot of odds and ends in this area.

There were some broken utensils, weapons of poor quality, ratmen who were hung high up because of stealing and unable to leave on their own, and a pile of heads piled up high.

This group of short goblins happily picked up all kinds of things in the area, and did not hesitate to take down the heads from the tall tower, looking for some heads that were not so severely rotten.

Some things are also made with these heads.

Wooden sticks, pieces of cloth, picked up leather, and some things with strange patterns were tied together and then carried on his back, as if imitating the battle flags carried by the rat warlords.

There must be a guy among this group of goblins who has lived for a very long time.

Otherwise, these guys who would be harvested on time every once in a while would not be able to do such a thing. After all, the last time the rat warlords were active on this grassland was during the holy war that Huo Na waged on this vast grassland.

Sure enough, an especially old goblin walked out from among the noisy guys.

He stopped the rowdy gang from destroying the skull tower.

He is different from ordinary goblins. He is old, hunched over, and his eyes are full of wisdom and shrewdness.

The other goblins seemed to be very convinced by him.

Under the command of this old goblin, many things were placed in front of the skull tower. Most of the things placed there had patterns on them, as if they were trying to piece together something.

Soon, something that could barely be called an altar, but was actually more like a garbage dump, was piled up in front of the tall tower of skulls.

A strange scene appeared.

The old goblin, along with many shorter goblins around him, knelt down in front of this crude garbage dump.

It seems like they are imitating the rat people in performing sacrifices.

It’s just a pity that nothing happened.

After a long while, the old goblin scratched his head in confusion.
