I am a god in another world
Chapter 670 Secret Hunting Cult
Maura is a well-known chaotic evil god. His teachings emphasize the survival of the fittest and the survival of the fittest. This teaching is not only applicable to those hunting prey, but also to his believers, especially those with multiple stocks like the one in front of him. When the forces are mixed to hunt, it is normal for them to kill each other.
"Luna and I both have the ability to travel through the forest, which makes it easier to move." Gavin couldn't tolerate the Crown Princess's refusal and directly pushed her onto the half-moon pony. "The Supreme Hunt will last at least twenty-four hours. If we can't find it, The way to break the situation is to be prepared to survive twenty-four hours and to save your energy.”
In Maura's hunting dream, only her spellcasting ability is restricted, and it has no impact on special abilities or supernatural abilities. This may be a conscious attempt to target the Crown Princess, or it may be caused by the beast lord priesthood, which he admires. It's a face-to-face, bloody, cruel fight, and even bows and arrows are backup options, let alone magic.
Even if they launch a supreme hunt in reality, they usually disable the spellcasting ability of the hunted target. Even if they have the spellcasting ability, they will not use it. If they use the spellcasting ability to kill the prey, it will be regarded as a failure of the supreme hunt. .
"Okay." Listening to the various roars, neighs and roars getting closer and closer, the Crown Princess no longer showed off her strength, her spellcasting ability was restricted, and she was immediately forced to take a back seat, giving up the main battle position to Gavin. .
She had seen this young general fight with her own eyes. Although he was also a spell caster, his fighting style was more focused on magic and martial arts. His luxurious equipment even limited his spell casting ability and combat effectiveness. The weakening is not particularly large, and it is still capable of fighting even against legendary warriors.
The current situation where even the legendary caster's spellcasting ability is banned can only be achieved if it involves the application of laws. Even if it is a real dream created by a god, there is no way to unilaterally ban it, and a basic balance must be maintained. That's right, the stalker has no way to cast spells and can only use physical means to hunt.
Gavin and the Half-Moon Pony, who have been blessed by the Fairy Wilderness, are at home in the dense forest. The dense trees and vines will not only not be an obstacle to them, but will instead become a powerful shelter for them. They will automatically make way for them. After they passed through, they instantly returned to their original position, blocking the pursuers who were following Gavin and the others, forcing them to take a long detour.
The relationship between the God of the Hunt and the various nature gods is extremely bad. The clergy of the Maura cult try to kill all the druids they encounter, regardless of their faith. They regard the druids as promoting the maintenance of society. The balance of the system is the true enemy of all those who love the hunt, and they regard it as an obstacle to the natural victory of the strong over the weak.
Therefore, all druid orders, including those associated with the druids and those sponsored by nature gods such as the Harpers, will also take the opportunity to seek out and destroy the strongholds of the Cult of Maura.
Even though Maura believers are often active in the forest and delineate their own hunting areas here, they do not receive any protection from nature here. They only have endless hatred for the fairies, natural beasts and monsters to help those victims. , it is not uncommon for them to turn against Maela believers.
Seeing that Gavin and the others showed off their unique abilities as druids, the pursuers became even more excited, howling one after another. They went from simply chasing to besieging Gavin and the Crown Princess from all directions, compressing the lives of Gavin and the Crown Princess. Activity space.
Wolves will hunt cooperatively. How could they, a group of followers of hunting masters, not be proficient?
Even though they have different origins, their hunting skills come from the same source, so they naturally work together very well.
Their hunting skills are not unsophisticated, and the number of traps in the dense forest is not small. However, Gavin is not good at making trouble. He is not just running away, but is engaging in mobile warfare, dividing the gap between the huge number of hunters. The distance is widened, so that you only have to face a few stalkers per unit of time.
As long as the number of enemies does not exceed five, he will rush forward without hesitation and carry out crazy killings.
Gavin didn't activate too many special abilities. He just activated the battle armor to double his size, and then activated the extra arms of the Arms of Predation and Destruction to put him in a super-large form. The War Predator also transformed into In matching form, the human arms are a death roar in one hand and a crown shield in the other.
But there was no chance to use human arms at all, at least not in front of those animal stalkers.
Whether it is the forest leopard, forest wolf or jungle tiger known for its agility, or the forest bear and owl bear known for its strength and might, in the face of the war plunderers, they simply cannot withstand two hammers, especially the latter two. It can be done with just one hammer, because they rely on their powerful and strong bodies to walk in wide open and closed paths, without knowing how to dodge. Gavin is even stronger than them, and directly resists their scratching. Just hit them on the head.
The scene was extremely bloody and brutal. Being hit by a one ton two-ton War Marauder was not as simple as having the head blasted, or the head and chest were hammered into the stomach, or the entire upper body was directly hammered. Into a bloody puddle.
This comes from the crushing force.
As for the forest wolves, forest leopards or jungle tigers, Gavin often does not use the War Reaver, but directly uses the Plundering Destruction Arms to grab their necks, just like picking up a kitten, or swinging them as weapons to attack other enemies, or throwing them heavily to the ground and stepping on them. They basically have no chance of getting up.
This is a crushing blow from the size. When they become giants of 3.7 meters and the Plundering Destruction Arms become super-large, they are really just large cats.
Their attacks are not even a tickle for Gavin. Most of them do not break the defense. Occasionally, the defense is broken, but the consumption is just false life. The Vampire Touch on the War Reaver is not a spellcasting ability, but a special ability of the equipment. It is not affected by the ban and will absorb the vitality of every victim it kills and bless Gavin.
Battle Armor, Arm of Plunder and War Plunderer, the three are simply a perfect match. Even if these three artifacts are equipped on a warrior with only a few life dice, they can make him burst out with combat power comparable to that of a quasi-legendary warrior, not to mention that Gavin himself is a legendary warrior.
When he entered the actual combat, Gavin found that he had underestimated his current combat power. He did not recover two-thirds of his combat power at the peak of his previous life, but if his peak self in his previous life appeared in front of him, he would be hammered alive.
This is a crushing from equipment. In the past life, let alone high-level artifacts, even sub-artifacts only had two, which is nothing compared to now.
However, Gavin knew that this one-sided crushing would not last long. These animal hunters were just appetizers. They were not even Mala believers. At best, they were the natives of this forest. They were influenced by the real dream of Mala, the god of hunting, and joined this hunt. The real Mala believers have not really appeared yet.
With the close connection with the forest, Gavin clearly sensed that many Mala followers had caught up with him, but they were intimidated by his powerful force and did not dare to rush up to experience the power of his hammer.
It is true that Mala followers advocate the law of the jungle, but it does not mean that they will challenge those super strong without knowing their own strength. It is a wise choice to gather enough wolves like a wolf pack to form a large enough hunting group and then launch an attack.
"We seem to be going in circles all the time, Luna, activate the Corruption Through the Forest, there is no need to kill those trees, just leave marks on the ground for us to distinguish." Gavin did not run away randomly just now, but rushed in one direction very purposefully, trying to find the border of this real dream.
At the very least, they could find the disappeared Luji Town, meet up with the people there, and learn about the specific situation here. However, after fighting for a long time, Gavin felt that they were going around in circles. There was no clear evidence, just a simple feeling. Even if it was a dream of a god, it couldn't be too big. It would be great if it could cover a few kilometers. They had been killing all the way for five or six kilometers, and they were still in the deepest part of the dense forest. The logger trail, Luji Town, and Dedruk Town were all gone. The only thing they could see was the abnormal blood moon in the sky.
"Your Highness, how much do you know about Mala's supreme hunting?" Gavin exchanged information with the Crown Princess while killing, looking for the key to breaking the deadlock in this matter.
The Crown Princess answered as if reciting a textbook: "The Supreme Hunt is the most notorious sacrificial ritual of the God of Hunting, and the reason why many people are afraid of him.
Wherever there are Malar followers active, there will be victims of this ritual. Each of his hunting groups needs to hold at least one Supreme Hunt in each season of the year.
The Supreme Hunt is a hunting event in which all the clergy of Malar who can walk will participate. They wear boots and headdresses made of the skulls of beasts killed by their own hands. Everyone only holds a simple knife or Malar's claw.
Their prey is usually an intelligent humanoid creature, usually a male human. He is released in a forest area ruled by Malar clergy, or if necessary, in a vast cave group. The prey can use any non-magical items he wants and can reasonably obtain, and then be hunted to death in the name of Malar's glory.
If the prey escapes the hunting boundary within a day and a night, or is lucky enough to see the sun rise from the horizon in the morning after the hunting begins, he will Win freedom, and never encounter such a hunt again, and can ask the hunting master for any favor within his power that does not involve killing a Malar.
The prey is usually a druid, and cannot be a Malar. When killed, the hunting victim will be completely burned to ashes as Malar's feast. "
"Your Highness is talking about sacrificing the Supreme Hunt." Gavin added, "Some beastmen who are more kind or neutral will not take the initiative to launch this Supreme Hunt, but they will mark enemies who trespass into their territory without permission, and launch a Supreme Hunt for protection or a Supreme Hunt for revenge against their enemies. Such hunts are often not time-limited, especially the latter, which has no geographical restrictions and will not stop until death. "
"I have heard of that kind of situation, but the Malars withdrew from Cormier many years ago, and there was no direct conflict between the two sides. Why did they suddenly go deep into the King's Forest and conduct this special Supreme Hunt here?" The Crown Princess had an expression of confusion that could not be concealed.
Before coming to Luji Town, both she and Gavin firmly believed that Luji Town's disappearance was a conspiracy, a conspiracy against the Crown Princess and possibly Gavin, in order to prevent Gavin from going to Surasa to meet King Assan and be conferred the title of Baron of Rock.
The initiators of this conspiracy are probably some lords and nobles of the Kingdom of Cormier, and it is even possible that they are colluding with the Kingdom of Sembia and the Eight Cities Alliance of the Dragon Coast.
But the way it unfolded now was a bit beyond their expectations. It was not just a real dream of a god, but the intervention of Mala and their believers, which felt a bit irrelevant.
Gavin did not directly answer Tainalasta's question, but asked: "How much do you know about the Secret Hunting Cult?"
"The Secret Hunting Cult?" The Crown Princess couldn't help but be stunned, "Do you suspect that the Secret Hunting Cult is a hunting group of the Malar sect?"
"At least one owner of Cormier noble blood must be sacrificed every year. Only by sacrificing them as sacrifices can the vitality of the earth be restored and the prosperity of the King's Forest be ensured. This sacrifice does not need to be voluntary. Just like a stag, it is chased and killed by believers in the King's Forest on a moonlit night. Don't you think this ceremony is very familiar?" Gavin was talking about the sacrifice ceremony of the Secret Hunting Cult.
As for the source of this information, it is still the Cormier Chapter of Varro's Travels. There is a reason why this Varro wizard was scolded as a dog nose by countless people. Even this confidential information was dug out by him.
The Secret Hunting Cult, the Secret Hunting Cult, just listen to its name and you will know that this is definitely not an open organization, but a highly secret society, and it is illegal. How could King Yasan allow such an organization to exist in his kingdom?
Let’s not talk about whether the ideas they believe in have any basis or whether they will work.
Even if they are really effective, they will often become a tool in the hands of those with ulterior motives to exclude dissidents and kill those hostile nobles - yes, those who promote and maintain this secret organization behind the scenes are some princes and nobles of the Kingdom of Cormier.
"That's just a variant of the Supreme Hunt." After Gavin's reminder, the Crown Princess linked all the information together, "Some of the nobles in Cormyr colluded with the Malar believers and sacrificed me as a sacrifice?"
"This is the best explanation I can think of." Gavin sneered, "For wealth and profit, they can even sell their souls to the devil. What's the point of cooperating with an evil god? Since all the prey hunted in this Supreme Hunt cannot be resurrected, because their souls have become the spoils of the King of Beasts, unless they have the ability to take their souls back from him.
If His Highness has an accident, the entire Kingdom of Cormyr will fall into turmoil. It is estimated that in the short term, there will be no intention to cooperate with the Conqueror Army.
If I can be killed together, it will be even better. The Conqueror Army will be leaderless. Not only will the entire Goblin Border be at their mercy, but even the Conqueror Road opened up by the Conqueror Army will become theirs. This is definitely a profitable business..."
At the end of the analysis, Gavin suddenly fell silent.
Because he found that doing so would not only benefit the nobles of the Kingdom of Cormier, but also the Royal Family of Obaiszir. Not only would they not have to pay the price of the rock land, but they could even get more from it, and eat up the entire army of conquerors and everything they created.
Moreover, there was a doubt in this matter itself. King Yasan and the court wizard disappeared at the same time. There were too few enemies in this world that were worth their efforts. The former was a master who could fight the ancient dragon, and the latter was a legendary master who could rank in the top ten in the whole of Faerun. He could really take a bath in the magma and drink tea in space. The possibility of being missing at the same time was too small.
But what if they were the masterminds behind the scenes and pushed themselves into the game?
If from the beginning to the end, this was a game set by the Kingdom of Cormier against itself, then what role did the Crown Princess play in it? Was she kept in the dark? Or was she a participant from the beginning to the end?
If it was the latter, then her acting skills were really terrible. Oscar-winning actresses probably didn't even have one tenth of hers.
The Crown Princess was so smart. After Gavin's analysis and his subsequent performance, she immediately guessed what would happen next. She said in an extremely affirmative tone, "This is definitely not a plot set by my father and the Grand Master against the general. We are not that stupid. Even if we use Malar to accomplish this, we will still be at odds with Ms. Strategy. Your Highness cannot fail to draw the most correct conclusion.
And for us, the most valuable thing about the Conqueror Army is not the Conqueror Army itself, nor the series of glories they have created along the way, but the formation of the Conqueror Army. You, the general of the army, because without you, there would be no Conqueror Army, no Conqueror Road, and no City of Faith.
You are the most dazzling treasure. If we can let the general join the Kingdom of Cormyr, it will bring us infinite possibilities. Compared with this possibility, what is the small Goblin Border? "
"Haha... I'm too worried." Gavin paused his attack involuntarily and laughed, "I didn't expect that Your Highness would think so highly of me. I'm afraid that I will disappoint Your Highness' expectations and stop at my current achievements. "
"Two days ago, I was still worried about this." The Crown Princess pointed to her own eyes, meaning that I believe what I see with my own eyes. "Now I am worried about whether the Kingdom of Cormier can keep up with the general's pace."
