Chapter 201: Using All Living Things as Nourishment in the Endless Carnage
A little more confused.
Until we climbed up an undulating hill, the wind overwhelmed the lush grass waves around us, and with this as the boundary, a barren land dotted with scarlet came into view.
He got it.
………….
Shu Zhan received the news. He only needed to give out some blood mushrooms, and the countless rats scattered on the grassland would become the best spies.
He was not completely unprepared for this.
Trench after trench was dug by the ratmen outside this scarlet pit.
Rarely, he chose to hold his ground. The scale of the attackers this time might be larger than expected.
Fortunately, the underground tunnel leading to the rear has been opened.
He was not worried that the logistics would be cut off. As a way to curb his lifeline, the logistics of the Eastern Expeditionary Force had been controlled by the Rat Council, that is, by the white rats.
The white rat would never give up on him. This was not his own war, but a war dedicated to God.
If the underground tunnel was cut off, he would definitely be the first one to be anxious. If he were defeated here, the war would be over.
No one would want to see this happen.
Shu Zhan's political sense is not sensitive, but this does not mean that he cannot make accurate judgments about the situation. Perhaps he is just too arrogant.
This battlefield cannot be without him.
This is his decision.
At the same time when Shu Zhan made this decision, the situation on this vast grassland was also known to the white rat sitting in the barren mountains.
At this moment, his face showed even more fatigue.
This was an expression that rarely appeared on his face, and the fatigue was quickly suppressed.
He always wanted to give more gifts to the gods, so he allowed many things to happen. Even though he had done a lot, he still wanted to give more.
It just often fails to live up to expectations.
This is one of the few times when the rats feel tired.
This guy always performs such actions very carefully. Perhaps the guy in the Ratman Kingdom who most wants to see the towering statue fall is not the cowardly Big Claw Priest.
Only now, the war is about to begin.
Put away your fatigue and regain your calm.
All the ratmen cities gradually received calls from the Ratmen Parliament.
Weapons, resources, manpower, craftsmen, everything.
Everything that could serve the war was included in this conscription, and the largest mobilization in the history of the Rat Kingdom began.
Shu Zhan’s decision was correct. Bai Shu would spare no effort to provide support, but this was not because of Shu Zhan’s arrogant attitude.
It's just because the white rats won't allow this war to fail.
He was even more impatient than before.
The construction of the towering statue in the Desolate Mountains came to a halt because of the death of the old Big Claw Priest and the coming of war. This guy shattered everyone's expectations for this matter in a way that no one expected.
This towering statue is almost completed.
Those rat lords who hoarded the ore are probably going to lose everything.
Fortunately, although the construction of the statue came to a standstill, other things were not completely useless.
The pitch-black blast furnace and the rat-man industrial zone in the Desolate Mountains were thrown into the war.
This pitch-black blast furnace, which is as tall as the mountains, has brought a terrifying boost to the ratmen's industry.
The amount of metal that this blast furnace alone can handle exceeds that of the Slag City, the Furnace City, and the former Desolate Mountain Industrial Zone combined.
This is a true miracle, but until now it has been serving another miracle that is still in progress.
Now, it has been vacated.
In the will of the white rat, everything was gathered together. Through the underground tunnels that ran through the cities, everything in the rat kingdom was flowing.
In the rolling hills, Sheng Qi was not ignored, he also received an order.
However, the Ratman Council did not ask him to lead the Western Expeditionary Force to join the horrific melee that was about to break out on the grassland. Instead, he asked him to continue advancing westward, across the hills, and westward until he reached the end.
The Rat Kingdom once again chose to fight on two fronts, but this time it was not due to the conflict between the Rat Warriors and the Rat Priests but from the decision of the White Rats.
In fact, after White Rat made the decision, all grievances and conflicts had to give way, and everything had to be thrown into war.
Senior rat-man priests were also recruited, and they would be thrown into the battlefield, and into the hands of the old enemy.
Shu Zhan was not like Sheng Qi who had no idea what to do with these senior priests. But if Shu Zhan was still wise, he should have understood what Bai Shu meant when these senior rat priests arrived at the Western Expeditionary Force.
All grudges and conflicts must give way to war.
The rat people's kingdom is indeed a deformed country. Whether it is culture, economy, or politics, everything is a mess, except for the military.
Countless breeding rooms, these twisted and morbid breeding rooms, which bring increasingly inferior bloodlines, have a hundred disadvantages, but even these hundred disadvantages cannot cover up his only advantage.
Population, endless population. The rat-man army that is never afraid of consumption comes from this endless population. The industry that is far ahead of its time comes from this endless population. The huge group of priests that can make every apprentice god and demigod jealous also comes from this endless population.
The Rat Kingdom’s internal exploitation is far more harsh and cruel than its external wars, but so what? It does not hinder its strength.
A deformed country that only serves war, a real war machine.
And now, this terrifying war machine is about to be launched.
Du Yuan woke up early again. His broken arm had not fully recovered, although the general shape of the arm had been condensed, like a piece of rough and sticky ceramic after being broken, with mottled flames surging in the cracks.
His sight penetrated the continuous mountains in front of him and directed towards the vast grassland, where blurry figures had already emerged.
At the level of gods, this war is not that simple, and the cause is also very simple. After witnessing Du Yuan breaking into the place where the half-elf goddess was sleeping and forcibly dragging her out and killing her, they chose to unite in grief over the death of the rabbit and the grief of the fox, and then it was greed.
A powerful priesthood, a huge force of faith, and a divinity that is already halfway through the condensation process.
Du Yuan has all these things that are coveted by apprentice gods and demigods, so naturally he will attract greedy eyes.
But Du Yuan could not retreat, any retreat would bring more unscrupulous attacks.
He took a step forward and appeared before the gods of the grassland. His cold gaze swept across the shadows standing in front of him.
These are all projections of divine power. Du Yuan's character as a crazy evil god still brings benefits. These guys chose to unite, but they were unwilling to be the first to take action.
Of course, Du Yuan certainly had no way to be enemies with the group of grassland gods in front of him. Although Du Yuan was powerful in the demigod stage, there were simply too many gods gathered in front of him.
Twenty-two gods gathered in front of Du Yuan, most of them were low-ranking apprentice gods, but there were still four real demigods.
If they really cooperated sincerely and rushed forward together, Du Yuan would be fired on the spot.
It's a pity that they all have their own concerns. Du Yuan is not completely powerless to fight back. He can at least bring down a god. So who is willing to be the first to do so?
Without trying to hide it, he openly displayed his broken, unhealed arm to the group of gods in front of him. However, his cold gaze lingered on the divine projections that appeared before him, especially on an old friend.
It stayed on the god of grassland and hunting worshipped by the wolf orcs.
Such an arrogant behavior did not attract anything. The two sides looked at each other, but there was a bit more commotion among the gods of the grassland.
Too much like him, or rather, he is a madman!
No one wants to die together with a real madman.
Soon, the shadows of the grassland gods faded and disappeared, leaving only Du Yuan standing in the sky.
These guys do have some concerns, but this war is unavoidable. They want to weaken the ratmen through war, which in turn will undermine their own beliefs.
The final war between gods is also inevitable, no matter who wins the war.
If the grassland coalition wins, then these guys can calmly put me on the table. If the rat people win, then these guys will definitely fight with me in order to avoid putting them all on the table.
The situation has reached a stalemate. The question now is no longer whether the rat people can win the war, but whether they can defeat these united grassland demigods.
Although Du Yuan cannot win at the moment, he is not without a chance.
Du Yuan's killing divinity is about to be born, much faster than Du Yuan expected. The cohesion of this divinity is related to the rat people's never-ending war.
It's also due to the twisted and morbid nature of the Rat Kingdom.
The continuous wars of the ratmen fit the general theme of war in the priesthood, while the endless sacrifices and killings fit the priesthood held by Du Yuan.
The god of fighting and killing.
Among them, the ratmen's endless breeding houses and the ever-vanishing slave rats occupied the bulk of this killing divinity.
The Big Claw Priest in the breeding house has the habit of recycling unqualified young executions and making them into baby food.
The slave rats, which are consumables, are always being rotated.
This endless killing seemed to be blamed on Du Yuan, leading to the birth of Du Yuan's divinity.
It’s almost over, but a grand war is about to begin.
Feed on this war, feed on all the lives lost in this war.
As long as Du Yuan can gather this drop of killing divinity, then Du Yuan will have completed the priesthood, divinity, divine power and godhead.
This meant that Du Yuan was qualified to become a god. Although no demigod would ascend to godhood so hastily, such a transformation would qualify Du Yuan to fight against the gods of the grassland.
Amidst endless killing, the path to God begins.
There will be another chapter later, but it will be later in the evening.
