Chapter 677 - Intrude
Afterward, a glowing green color door emerged on the Wall. Nothing could be seen inside the door– the entire thing was like a green energy wave.
“Every candidate will need to stay inside for 3 whole days. If you run into danger, all you need to do is to step back, and you will be safe. Do your best!” Beginner priest Enli yelled at the 30 orcs after seeing elite priest Dono nodding at him.
The orcs began to enter according to their position in line. Abel was the first, so of course, he would be the first to go in.
He jumped on his mount wolf and walked towards the green door. When most of his body had stepped in the door, he felt like an immensely powerful force sucked him. In a split second, his entire body was dragged inside the light.
This feeling felt familiar, that glowing door was a portal, but before he even got the chance to feel dizzy, he saw the light next to him changing.
After a second, he felt his feet touching the ground. He had landed on a square surrounded by a stone wall. It was not a big square; it could probably only hold 100 people at most.
There was a sea of bones outside of the wall and countless scattered skeletons on the ground. He didn’t know how many layers of bones there were, but the entire place was covered–as white as snow.
It was no wonder perfect skull gems could be formed in a place like this.
At that moment, an orc appeared next to him. One by one, the other selected orcs were teleportation.
Meanwhile, a white light flashed on the other side of the green glowing door. There were still a few orcs waiting to enter, but 4 intermediate human wizards and a head commander suddenly emerged from the white light.
“Human!” An orc yelled as he unleashed a strike with his weapon.
But before they could make contact, the 4 human wizards and the head commander jumped in the green glowing door and vanished from the spot.
There were still 5 selected orcs, but they could no longer go inside the green glowing door.
It had reached its maximum energy capacity and began to fade. At last, it vanished entirely.
Everything had happened way too quickly, and Beginner priest Enli didn’t have time to react. He then turned to elite priest Dono and asked, “Master!”
Elite priest Dono was not angry; instead, he began to laugh “interesting, this is too interesting!”
Beginner priest Enli also suddenly understood, so he began to laugh with his raspy voice as well. “Master, those humans came here without even knowing what was happening!”
Elite priest Dono continued to laugh. “If I am not mistaken, those were the Miracle City’s intermediate wizards and head commander. The most powerful ones as well. Now that we can take a hit on the Miracle City’s power seems like we did not just waste 20 spiritual beasts on the orc god ceremony after all!”
The 5 leftover orcs and beginner priest Enli were not aware of how little faith elite priest Dono had for the orc god, but in reality, both human wizards and orc priests did not have too much respect for the orcs.
This was because they also had god-like status in the common world. Both Elite wizards and elite priests would be treated almost like a god, no matter if they were in the orc empire or the human world.
In the human world, the status of god had shrunken a lot. Although there were still religions being passed along, the influence of wizardry and knight training had far exceeded the status of religion.
Both wizardry and knight training were able to unleash the potential of the body. One was for the physical body, and the other was for the power of the will.
Since both of these schools could obtain power through training, their practitioners rarely had any religious faith. Some knights might be Christians due to their family’s honor, but wizards would have less and less faith as they progress with their rank.
However, the situation was a lot stranger in the orc empire. Although the priests might not respect the orc god, they had shown immense faith to the others. They were an extremely manipulative group using the orc god’s name to gain large amounts of resources.
Therefore no matter how much poverty the orc empire was going through, the resource for these priests, the so-called servants of the orc god, had never lacked.
Elite priest Dono suddenly realized maybe he had just got out of character a little, so he immediately lowered his voice and said, “Off you go now. Come back in 3 days!”
Those 5 orcs lowered their heads in disappointment and left the Nam mountain under beginner priest Enli’s guidance.
Abel did not directly dive into the sea of bones; Instead, he waited for the 30 orcs.
He was not familiar with this place, so it was best to go with a group. He would be staying in that place for 3 days anyway; waiting for a few minutes wouldn’t make a difference.
As they were waiting for the last 5 orcs, 5 humans’ shadows suddenly emerged at once.
It was intermediate wizard Hubert, 4 other intermediate wizards, and the no.1 head commander of the Miracle City, head commander Donald.
Head Commander Donald no longer had a glorious look on his face like he was in Miracle City. Instead, he looked extremely shameful; even his left arm had disappeared.
Wizard Hubert and the other 4 intermediate wizards were looking decent; they didn’t seem to get any injuries.
Although they were lucky enough to reunite in the Fuer swamp after getting lost in the sand storm, Head Commander Donald’s left arm had been bit by an extremely venomous snake. If he didn’t chop off his arm immediately, he would now be dead in the Fuer swamp.
After passing through countless obstacles, they finally arrived at Nam mountain. There were many death qi circles surrounding Nam Mountain. This might be a disaster for other humans since it could trigger the Nam Mountain guarding orcs as soon as they made a wrong move.
However, those death qi circles were basically nonexistent in the face of 4 intermediate wizards. Other than a few extremely special circles, nothing could stop a move in a flash.
Just like that, head Commander Donald and the intermediate wizards had entered Nam Mountain. After that, they patiently waited for the best opportunity.
They were from Miracle City, so of course, they knew how scary an elite priest was.
They only had one shot. Wizard Hubert had already decided if they were spotted by elite priest Dono, he would throw Head Commander Donald out to give them some time.
Of course, he would not let Head Commander Donald know about this. By that point, they basically had no more use for Head Commander Donald. His left arm was gone; he would be useless even if he made it back to Miracle City alive.
Therefore as they flashed towards the green glowing door, the 4 intermediate wizards had acted causally and placed Head Commander Donald at the front.
Head Commander knew what they were doing, but he couldn’t do anything about it. Moving in a flash was completely controlled by the wizards; the wizards could place him anywhere they like.
However, what elite priest Dono had done was totally beyond their expectations. During the entire process, elite priest Dono remained still. Even those 8 scary skeletons were silent.
In this weird situation, those humans had just been attacked a little by the few leftover orcs. Soon, they had successfully entered this secret orc god ceremony dimension.
Wizard Hubert was filled with excitement as he was being teleported. He knew the orc god blood would be right at reach after seeing 20 spiritual beasts being sacrificed.
Wizard Hubert knew a thing or two about the gods. These sacrifices were basically a type of exchange.
Although these 20 spiritual beasts might not mean much to the orc god on the other side, and the orc god might only repay them something ordinary. What was considered ordinary to the gods might be extremely precious to the common world.
Therefore according to this logic, Wizard Hubert knew that they would have a high chance of getting an orc god blood or other extremely valuable things.
At the same time, he also knew orc priests were not stupid. They wouldn’t continue to sacrifice 20 spiritual beasts every 10 years if they couldn’t get any good out of it.
