The ancient incantation began to reverberate in the sky above the fierce battlefield, and immediately caused a commotion among the warriors on both sides. The difference was that the warriors on the side with the priest all revealed expressions of joy, while the warriors on the other side had expressions of fear on their faces.
It was hard to imagine that not long ago, these incomparably valiant barbarian warriors, who would rather die than retreat in the face of blood and slaughter, would actually be afraid of the power of the priest. It seemed that to these warriors, this strange power was more awe-inspiring than death itself.
Of course, Lu Chen could not understand this inexplicable mentality. They were not even afraid of bleeding to death, and yet they were afraid of this unknown magic? Come to think of it, perhaps these barbarian warriors had been instilled with the idea that the priest's magic was unparalleled since they were young. Otherwise, it was really incomprehensible.
However, at this moment, he could not care about these things, because when he saw the magic staff in the hands of the priest when he cast the spell, his heart suddenly moved. He immediately reached out to touch his chest, and in the next moment, the half of the Fire God's Staff appeared in his hand.
From afar, he compared the half of the Fire God's Staff with the magic staff in the hands of the distant priest. Very quickly, Lu Chen noticed that there was a huge difference between the two.
The color of the magic staff in the hands of the priest was bright, and the whole body was smooth. Many runes were directly engraved on the magic staff, and even when it was not casting a spell, it could still be seen very clearly. However, after the priest cast the spell, although the entire magic staff emitted a yellow light, and the runes also lit up, it was in the form of dots. Many of the runes did not respond, and were still dark. Those dots of light also did not show any signs of connecting.
Recalling the appearance of the Fire God's Staff when it was stimulated by the Black Fire Spiritual Power, Lu Chen discovered that all the twisted and complicated runes on the Fire God's Staff had a natural feeling of blending with water. Once the Fire God's Staff was stimulated by the spiritual power, the spiritual power was like a stream of water, flowing through all the runes in the blink of an eye. Every place and every rune would light up, forming an incomparably complete totem.
Up until now, the Fire God's Staff in Lu Chen's hands was only emitting light, barely able to be used as a torch. However, Lu Chen still felt that the Fire God's Staff should be much stronger than the staff in the priest's hands.
Perhaps, just like what the old priest of the Barbarian tribe had said before his death, this was a divine weapon?
The Fire God's divine weapon, the Fire God's choice?
Lu Chen curled his lips and put down the Vulcan Staff.
…
On the battlefield below, the priest had already finished chanting his incantation. Soon, a powerful force was emitted from the staff in his hand. Several yellow rays of light shot out and shot into the ground in front of him.
At the same time, Lu Chen suddenly felt a slight warmth in his hand, and Atsu, who had been lying beside him, suddenly moved a little to the side, as if it was startled by something.
After a while, their gazes looked down at the same time. They saw that the half of the Vulcan Staff was actually trembling by itself. A ray of light that was not particularly bright was flickering in the runes on the body of the staff.
However, the Vulcan Staff's reaction stopped there. It gave off a feeling of disdain. After the light flickered for a while, it gradually dimmed.
On the battlefield below the sand dune, there was already a strange change. At the center of the battlefield where the two sides were fighting fiercely, the ground suddenly trembled violently. The surrounding barbarian warriors suddenly lost their balance and fell to the ground.
After a while, a low rumbling sound came from the ground. A large area of sand and stones suddenly arched up. Smoke and dust flew everywhere, and countless small stones rolled down. Then, under the shocked gazes of the crowd, a huge stone puppet that was more than two feet tall appeared on the battlefield.
This stone puppet, whose entire body was condensed from stones and sand, raised its head towards the sky and roared. Its voice was like thunder, then it slowly turned around and walked towards the enemy camp.
With every step it took, the ground would tremble. This indicated that the stone puppet's body was abnormally heavy.
Looking at the terrifying stone giant that had suddenly appeared, it was obvious that it was not an opponent that ordinary people could fight against. The barbarian warriors who had been fighting bravely before also began to show signs of hesitation and fear in their eyes. Some of them even began to retreat.
The situation of the battlefield that was originally evenly matched was suddenly reversed after the appearance of the stone puppet.
The morale of the barbarian warriors who had the power of the priest had obviously risen. All the barbarian warriors roared and rushed forward. They either slashed and chased after the stone puppet, or directly entangled the opponent so that the stone puppet behind them could catch up.
Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, a few people suddenly jumped out from the back of the barbarian warriors who were at a disadvantage. But, none of these people were like the priest. They seemed to be stronger warriors and leaders. They shouted at their subordinates, and drove them back to fight.
Lu Chen was watching from the side of the sand dune. He could also see that something was wrong. The barbarian army with the priest had a unified command. Even their clothing was similar. On the other side, although the number of barbarian warriors wasn't small, but after a long time, he could see that the warriors of several different tribes had joined forces to fight together. These barbarian warriors were also very brave and valiant. But, when the leader of the barbarian warriors came out, the situation immediately became chaotic.
The warriors of each tribe only listened to the leader of their tribe. So, the scene suddenly became chaotic. The stone puppet had dragged its heavy body to the front. It let out a loud roar, and kicked its huge stone foot towards the barbarian warriors.
A gust of wind blew past, and a few barbarian warriors who couldn't dodge in time were kicked. Immediately, deafening screams could be heard, and a few bodies were kicked away. Blood splattered everywhere, and their bones were broken and their flesh was torn.
Then, the stone puppet raised its arm, and smashed its huge fist into the crowd of barbarian warriors. "Boom!"
The ground shook, and a few barbarian warriors who couldn't dodge in time were smashed into a pile of flesh and blood. The other barbarian warriors seemed to be scared out of their wits. They screamed madly, and retreated with all their might. It seemed that they wanted to get as far away from this inhumane stone puppet as possible.
The situation instantly collapsed. Even though the leaders of the allied army were trying their best to drive their warriors away, they couldn't control the barbarian warriors who were retreating.
On the opposite side, a large group of warriors were laughing wildly. They were waving their blood-stained blades, and were following the stone puppet.
On the side of the allied army, everyone's faces were ashen, and despair could be seen on their faces. Some of them seemed to be extremely angry. They tore their clothes, beat their chests, and roared, "Why, why do they have a priest? Didn't the priest of the Mountain Spirit Tribe die decades ago?! "
…
Blood splattered everywhere on the bloody battlefield. Many people were bleeding and collapsing, and an even greater massacre was about to descend.
Lu Chen, who was hiding behind a sand dune in the distance, didn't feel anything. He had been used to death and blood for so many years. Once he hardened his heart, he could be extremely cold. Not to mention that both sides were barbarians, so he didn't feel the slightest bit of sympathy for them.
So, when one side was about to be slaughtered, he didn't feel anything. He just calmly watched for a while, and felt that he shouldn't stay here any longer. Once the battle was over, the barbarians on the winning side would definitely clean up the battlefield. At that time, if he wasn't careful and was discovered by the barbarian warriors who had just escaped from the battle, it would be a big problem.
Especially the priest hiding in the depths of the battle. Although Lu Chen faintly felt that the priest's methods, especially his magic staff, were not as good as the Fire God's Staff that he had obtained, but the various strange witchcraft and methods of the Southern Border Barbarians were still hard to guard against.
So, he finally decided not to cause any trouble. He turned his head and called out to Atsu softly, "Let's go."
Atsu wagged its tail and crawled up from the ground. Lu Chen was about to retreat down the sand dune when he found that the Fire God's Staff was still in his hand. At this moment, it was still slightly hot, but the light on the staff was almost gone.
He shrugged his shoulders and was about to put away the Fire God's Staff when he suddenly found that the priest in the distance had a solemn expression on his face. His hands were twisting in the air, as if he was in the process of controlling the stone puppet. Seeing that victory was in his grasp, it was obvious that the priest's face revealed an obvious look of arrogance.
Then, he looked around and saw that the barbarian warriors surrounding him were all looking at him with reverence. The way they looked at him was like that of a god. The priest was extremely pleased with himself and couldn't help but laugh out loud. He had the intention to show off.
As long as I can completely make these brainless barbarians who only have a body of flesh and blood respect me, I can successfully subdue this Mountain Spirit tribe. When I return to the "War God Temple", I'm sure the few shamans will be even more satisfied with me.
The priest snorted coldly and made up his mind. He grabbed the staff beside him with both hands and didn't seem to cast a spell. In the blink of an eye, a violent force flowed out from the staff and poured into the distance.
The power accompanied by the blazing yellow light directly passed over the heads of the crowd and landed on the Stone Puppet. Immediately, the originally incomparably powerful Stone Puppet seemed to have suddenly been stimulated, and its movements actually became twice as fast as before. Even the most obvious flaw was almost fixed.
With this, the stone puppet became even more of a terrifying killing machine. It swept across the battlefield and slaughtered flesh and blood. In the blink of an eye, it was about to kill its way through the enemy's formation.
The priest laughed out loud and the barbarians around him cried out in surprise. Their faces were full of reverence and they looked as if they were about to kneel on the ground.
It was also at this moment that the Fire God's Staff, which had calmed down in Lu Chen's hand, suddenly lit up.
Just like a will that had been provoked again.
