Chapter 835 The Deal Between Believers and Gods

After listening to Elvis explain how many thousands of rats had been slaughtered and sacrificed over the years, and how many high-value targets such as gray prophets, warlords, clan leaders, and female rats were among them, Tehenhoin did not express praise or criticism.

In the eyes of the prophet, there are only two things that can be praised. First, the arrival of Sotek, which he has been waiting for.

The second is the destruction of the Skaven. We are still working on this. All the current results are just a subtle process towards the end.

Elvis, who was familiar with the Sotek sect, naturally integrated into the group of lizard people and had a good relationship with the prophet and several skink priests under his command.

But when it comes to other people, it seems very subtle.

On the one hand, the lizard people have always maintained a sense of mystery for many years. Although everyone living in Qingyan Port knows that there is a lizard people city next door, except for the occasional sighting of skinks entering the city, there is little communication.

On the other hand, it is respect for the superior organization.

Fortunately, when preparing in advance, Elvis had already distributed common knowledge about the lizard people to the knights, so that his subordinates would not be ignorant of them.

Under the leadership of Gaguiar, a priest who resides in the Great Horned Viper, the two sides first had an in-depth exchange of doctrines, striving to correct each other's erroneous thoughts and return to the world an orthodox and unobjectionable orthodox doctrine of Sotek.

Tehenhoyin was not interested in whether there was revisionism in the horned viper and misinterpretation of Sotek's teachings. The existence of the prophecy tablets had already destined that there was only one kind of Sotek's teachings.

Without too much explanation, the Lord of the Red-crowned Skink is Sotek's mortal incarnation.

But the true incarnation, the prophet, understands that there is someone else.

Pakal, who was paged in front of the prophet, huddled his neck and put his hands behind his back. His body was covered with simple gold jewelry originally brought from Lustria, which was no longer the garish and unusual mix and match style of before.

Pakar, who has awakened his wisdom, is very clear about his importance among the lizard people, but he is also a little disgusted.

He didn't want to be a war messenger like Brother Nakai. Every scar on his body and the gold jewelry hanging around his neck and arms were proof of a great victory.

But... no one can escape his fate. His fate was back on track when the prophet arrived.

Tehenhoin squinted his eyes, and only the erect snake eyes remained in his eyes to observe Pakal. He could detect the changes in the Seal Monitor Lizard. It used to be like a blank sheet of paper for a child. The accumulation of experience brought about by the passage of time has turned into a canvas splashed with colors by the hot-blooded species.

But the red light hidden among all the colors that never disappears cannot be covered up.

"Pakar, I gave you the possibility of searching for your destiny for a long time, but the final result has already been determined. You can't get satisfaction from anything. Only the blood of rats can make the hot mark a little lighter. .

The war messenger of the Sotek Cult, the harbinger of doom among the Skaven, and the Seal Lizard gifted by the Forked Serpent, your mission has arrived. "

The confident words made Elvis extremely surprised. He looked at the monitor lizard who had been with him for many years in surprise, as if he was meeting him for the first time.

It is a recognized thing that Pakar likes to play. From the elegant and unusual aristocratic music to the lowly sailors' entertainment ship cards, he is not interested in anything.

From the day the giant horned viper was born, apart from occasionally holding sacrificial ceremonies and carrying an extra-large minigun as a sniper on the battlefield, the giant lizard spends all its time draining the Knights' treasury and satisfying its curiosity. Heart.

However, such a giant lizard that likes to play and have fun with others cannot find satisfaction from anything?

The Grand Master felt a great absurdity. Could it be that the laughter that Pakal showed every time he played with him was just a disguise to cover up the emptiness in his heart?

As if aware of the absurdity in the heart of the elf boy who had been with him for many years, Pakal bent down, covered Elvis' head with his rough palm, and said softly,

"Elvis, I have never doubted your sincerity in treating me as a brother. Since I left Chacua with you that day, it was the first time that I felt the splendor and color of this world. Those happy times were by no means false, but they were It's time for Pastor Pakal.

Perhaps one day, after the Skaven disappear from the world, Pakal, the son of Sotek, can turn back into the happy monitor lizard mascot you know.

Now I have to get back to my predetermined position. "

The cold-blooded prophet did not understand the so-called brotherhood of hot-blooded species. After Pakar stretched out his hand to caress the elf's head, he ordered him to go to Chakua's Blood Sacrifice Pyramid through the Rainbow Bridge.

The sect has made all preparations for the giant lizard to activate the holy seal, so that the power that should be attributed to him can return to the War Messenger's body after more than fifty years of waiting.

At that time, Pakal will spread endless fear to the rats in the name of Sotek. As long as the battlefield where the Seal Monitor is located, even if the rat demon comes in person, he must consider whether he has courage.

The lonely Elvis watched Pakal's equally lonely figure gradually leave. For the first time, he felt suspicious of Sotigo, and thought he knew all the secrets.

But in an instant, he discovered that his closest brother had been pretending to smile for fifty years.

Sotigo had the ability to give Pacal all the emotions of a normal creature, but he gave up this part because of the Holy Seal.

Let a monitor lizard who is curious about the world feel no sense of satisfaction after getting what he desires. He pretends to be happy and continues to look for the next thing that may satisfy him.

After the cycle repeats, what is left may only be an emptiness deep in the bone marrow.

Is all this worth it...

The elf cub fell into deep doubt, and the prophet saw at a glance that Tehenhuoin had no words of comfort, and even his tone was as calm as usual, telling a fact.

"This is the fate of our race. Every lizard man has become a part of the prophecy before he is born. Pakal's soul that has been silent for fifty years was caused by you. This is the prophecy. It is inevitable and impossible to escape. Can not accept."

Elvis looked up at the sky, remembering that fifty years ago, after resigning as herald at Qingyan Port, he hesitated whether to go to Chakua's fork in the road of destiny.

The first thing he saw when he woke up from the teleportation spell was Pakal, who was looking for the snake god prophet.

Today, fifty years later, it was the snake god prophet who took the initiative to look for him, and it was also the last time he saw the mascot Pakar...

From now on, perhaps the humorous mascot that entertained people has disappeared, leaving only a few traces of a giant lizard named Warbringer Pakal.

The sensitive elf had tears streaming down his face. No one knew the pain in his heart.

But he still chose to prove his attitude with practical actions. While tears fell from his cheeks to the ground, he said decisively,

"I made a deal with Sotek. When the Skaven disappear, Pakal will get a chance at a new life!" (End of Chapter)
