Arcane Universe - Chapter340

Among this group of troll wyvern knights, there was a particularly tall and sturdy troll knight with a red cloak. His wyvern was also exceptionally strong, and he was rather eye-catching.

Qiankun Pagoda had told Feng Chou that not only did the Troll have a powerful body, his soul was also exceptionally powerful. He was almost equivalent to a master priest and a master warrior.

In the information that Feng Chou had bought, there was no such profession in the inheritance of the Troll of the Southern Continent. Thus, he guessed that this Troll might be the mysterious' Voodoo Headhunter 'that the outside world didn't know about.

After watching the dragon knight patrol leave, Feng Chou ordered the parrot to continue deeper into the platform.

They met two more dragon knight patrols along the way and finally arrived at the center of the platform.

There was a lonely hill at the center of the platform. There was a majestic altar that was over a hundred meters tall at the top of the hill.

This altar was in the shape of a pyramid. A section of the top of the tower had been removed, leaving behind a large platform.

There was a circular platform at the center of this platform. A giant red snake coiled around the platform.

There were wide steps leading to the platform at the top of the altar on each of the four sides of the altar. There was a large plaza around the altar.

Feng Chou seemed to have come at the right time. There were many Troll gathered in the plaza around the altar. A few Troll witch doctors and Troll shamans were climbing up the steps to the altar. They seemed to be holding a sacrificial ceremony.

Soon, a few shamans and witch doctors climbed to the top of the altar. They were led by a Troll witch doctor wearing a red cloak and long red robe. They danced around the circular platform where the giant snake was coiled around, dancing the witch dance.

As the shamans and witch doctors danced the witch dance, the Troll below the altar also began to fervently pray and kowtow to the altar.

Half an hour later, the witch dance ended. The Troll below the altar also quieted down.

Some troll hunters escorted some prisoners onto the altar. Under the lead of the chief witch doctor, the curtains of a blood sacrifice were drawn.

As the heads of Troll, Dragon Descendants, and other intelligent creatures were chopped off one by one, and as blood splashed onto the round platform, the blood sacrifice gradually reached its climax.

As the heads rolled down the stairs around the altar, the Troll below the altar fell into a religious frenzy.

Even the giant snake on the round platform at the top of the altar began to move restlessly.

As the giant snake gradually unfolded its body, Feng Chou finally saw its true appearance.

This was a huge snake that was more than ten meters long and more than one meter in diameter. When it stood up, almost half of its body was in the air, while the other half of its body was steadily supporting its six to seven meter tall body.

The giant snake's triangular head had a crown of horns that resembled a dragon's, and its neck was open like a cobra's. About three meters away from its neck, there was a pair of wings.

It was unknown whether the giant snake was impatient or excited as it walked on the round platform. Its wings spread out and flapped continuously.

The wings were about five to six meters wide when spread out. Compared to its body that was one meter thick and more than ten meters long, the wings seemed rather small.

In this frenzied blood sacrifice, the Troll killed more than a hundred intelligent creatures. Qiankun Pagoda told Feng Chou that these intelligent creatures were all mid-level and above. Their souls had all been devoured by the giant snake at the center of the altar.

The blood sacrifice continued for about two hours and ended before the sun set. The Troll also gradually calmed down.

Many large stone buildings that resembled temples had been built along the slope around the plaza around the altar. Even further away from the temples, near the foot of the mountain, there were some simple triangular huts.

Compared to the majestic temples and altars, these huts were very shabby.

After the sacrifice, most of the Troll returned to the huts on the outskirts.

During the sacrifice just now, Feng Chou took the risk of letting the parrot pet fly into the air near the altar. Qiankun Pagoda scanned the surroundings of the altar.

The results of the scan made Feng Chou a little surprised.

Among this group of Troll, the most powerful were a legendary Troll Witch Doctor and a legendary Troll Berserker.

In addition to these two Legends, there were more than forty powerful Masters of the Profession.

If there were no legendary black dragon as an ally, Feng Chou would have turned around and left without saying a word.

After the sacrifice, Qiankun Pagoda observed that several of the most powerful Witch Doctors and Shamans followed the legendary Witch Doctor and entered the interior of the altar pyramid through a secret door.

The legendary Berserker led a group of master Troll Hunters. After the Troll Berserker left the altar, they entered a huge palace next to the plaza.

Feng Chou lurked in the forest outside the altar complex for seven days, patiently observing this group of Troll until Princess Nala summoned him with a short message spell.

Feng Chou found that this Troll tribe was constantly fighting with various forces around them. Whether it was the Dragon Tribe, other Troll tribes, or the Fishman Tribe, they were all their targets.

In these battles, their main purpose was to capture the other party's warriors.

The Troll held a blood sacrifice every seven days, killing hundreds of people each time!

The so-called killing a thousand enemies, losing eight hundred of your own men. For these hundreds of captives, the Troll had to pay a considerable price.

With such frequent large-scale blood sacrifices, Feng Chou estimated that even if they didn't attack this tribe, this tribe wouldn't last long and would decline.

This was the horror of the blood sacrifice. Once a divinity tasted the taste of blood, it would be like taking drugs. They would become more and more thirsty for blood until they destroyed the tribe and themselves.

According to Qiankun Pagoda's scan analysis, the feathered serpent already had a lot of divinity in its body.

According to the Arcane Empire's measurement method, the feathered serpent already had five points of divinity.

The Arcane Empire counted the smallest unit of divinity as one point of divinity.

Only more than one point of divinity could exist in the state of divinity. Once divinity was less than one point, it would be decomposed into the purest power of faith.

Moreover, there was a transition relationship between one point of divinity and two points of divinity. There was no intermediate value. In other words, there was no decimal point of divinity.

According to the Arcane Empire's theory, divinity was actually the purest power of faith. Under the rules of this world, it produced a qualitative change.

A mortal only needed one point of divinity to immediately obtain the power and casting ability of a mid-level warrior or a mid-level priest.

Two points would allow a divinity to obtain the power and casting ability of a senior professional. Three points would allow a master to obtain the power and casting ability of a master. Four points would allow a quasi-legendary level of power and casting ability. Five points would allow a mortal to obtain the power of a legendary professional. Seven points would allow a mortal to obtain the power of a mid-level legendary. Nine points would allow a mortal to obtain the power of a high-level legendary.

Ten points of divinity would produce a qualitative change, allowing the master of divinity to obtain the authority of a demigod.
