Game of the World Tree - Chapter 31

31. Chapter 31 Goblin High Priest (Please recommend!)

This is a dilapidated temple.

The symbols describing Mother Nature and the elven stone tablets have long been destroyed by sharp weapons and splashed with dirty blood.

The statue that originally belonged to the goddess was also smashed and replaced by a wooden male god wearing a leather coat, holding a battle axe and a longbow.

That is the god of winter and hunting – Ullr.

Under the statue, an old hunchbacked goblin was prostrating himself.

It was wearing a tattered wizard robe stolen from a human caravan, a weird felt hat on its head, and in front of it, a crystal that was shining with a light green light.

“Great God of Winter and Hunting, this is the third blood crystal that the servant has found this month. I need seven more to collect the minimum 33 blood crystals for sacrifice. I will offer them to you later.”

It was hunched over, its eyes were cloudy, the wrinkles on its face were almost engraved into its bones, and its expression was fanatical and pious.

Because Uller’s original body was in the heavens, a sacrifice across the two realms required a lot of energy, so in order to save divine power, He could only let his subordinates collect enough tributes and then offer them together. Usually, he would only have some simple communication with the believers.

As the goblin prayed, the statue emitted a faint golden light, gently brushing its body.

In an instant, the old goblin felt that his old body seemed to be a lot younger.

“Praise the God of Winter and Hunting!”

The old goblin was slightly happy and buried his head deeper.

After praying to the gods, the old goblin stood up.

It straightened the felt hat on its head, then carefully picked up the skull staff inlaid with huge gems hidden under its body, wiped it carefully in its arms as if it were a treasure, and then walked out of the ruined temple with satisfaction.

The old goblin was called Guru, a Goblin priest of the lower level of Black Iron at level 11.

However, Guru preferred to call himself the high priest, because among the Goblin tribes entrenched in the ruins of Florence, its strength was the strongest, and the other three Goblin priests were not its opponents and bowed to it.

The reason why it was so powerful was not because of how strong its divine favor was, but because before being recruited by Uller, it had experienced an adventure, obtained a staff, and became a rare Goblin caster.

Not only that, it also mastered the mysterious undead magic! It

was also relying on the undead magic that it could suppress the other two Goblin priests of the same level 11.

However, it was too old.

If it developed normally, its life span would not exceed three years at most.

Fortunately, the appearance of Uller gave it hope. This great god has promised that if it can collect thirty-three pieces of the World Tree’s Blood Crystals within this year, it will give it a new life.

Gulu’s luck is not bad.

For some reason, since the thousand years of the War of the Gods, the World Tree’s Blood Crystals left in the Forest of Elves have been almost forgotten, and Uller has only recently launched a secret divine prophecy to find them.

Therefore, for believers, as long as they work hard, it is not difficult to collect some crystals.

And relying on the power of the tribe, it has accumulated a full twenty-six pieces in just a few months.

“So, strength is the foundation of this world!”

Gulu stroked his skull staff and muttered to himself intoxicatedly.

After leaving the temple, Gulu came to the streets of the Florentine ruins.

Just looking at the empty broken walls and ruins, its old brows gradually twisted.

“Why are there so many fewer people?”

Gulu looked around and saw a sleeping goblin.

It snorted and walked over, kicking the other party awake.

The goblin that was kicked awake was furious. It drew its stick and was about to fight back, but when it saw the person coming clearly, its face changed instantly. It lay on the ground like a well-behaved chick, whimpering “Ahhhh” and kissing Gulu’s toes…

Gulu’s eyes flashed with disdain.

It looked down on these low-IQ fellows.

In its view, although they have the same appearance, they are completely two species.

This group of low-energy trash can’t even speak the common language!

If it weren’t for the fact that the undead summoned by its undead magic could not touch the divine blood crystals and could not meet its needs for treasure hunting, how could it take this group of trash seriously?

However, in order to achieve its own goals, the power of the tribe is still indispensable at this moment.

Thinking of this, it kicked the goblin on the ground and asked:

“Where are the others? How come so many are missing all of a sudden?”

After hearing what Gulu said, a trace of confusion flashed across the goblin’s face, and then suddenly realized something, it screamed “Ahhh” and gestured at the same time.

“Huh? You said they saw a human woman passing by outside the ruins? Did they go to catch people?”

Gulu frowned.

The goblin listened and nodded repeatedly.

After getting the other party’s confirmation, Gulu’s eyes narrowed slightly.

“Human women?”

The human kingdom closest to the Elf Forest is hundreds of kilometers away, and human caravans only pass through here in the summer. Where can human women come from?

This bunch of rubbish, I’m afraid they are crazy about females!

It shook off the goblin who replied, and then walked towards the edge of Florence.

As it moved forward, Gulu’s face became more and more gloomy.

Because it found that the number of goblins in the ruins had decreased more than it had imagined.

“I’m afraid at least 200 people ran away…”

It gritted its teeth and said.

Just as Gulu was moving forward, there was a commotion in the southwest direction of the Florence ruins.

Gulu raised his eyebrows and walked over calmly…

…

The southwest entrance of Florence.

Demacia, who had disguised himself, was still here as usual.

Not only that, in order to attract more elite monsters, he also walked boldly into the ruins.

“Come on, you little cuties!”

Looking at the goblins who were gradually attracted by him, Demacia sneered in his heart.

However, suddenly, a sense of crisis from instinct came to his mind.

Demacia’s heart tightened, and he felt as if he was being stared at by a vicious venomous snake…

The perception of the elves’ bodies is very sharp.

Demacia almost subconsciously turned his head and looked in a certain direction.

When he saw the source of the sense of crisis, he suddenly felt his scalp tingling.

On a dilapidated stone tablet in the ruins, a goblin covered in a dark robe was looking at him coldly.

It was the Goblin High Priest Gulu.

The gloomy and terrifying aura on him could be felt clearly by Demacia even at a distance of dozens of meters.

“Damn… Unlucky, I must have hooked the boss!”

Feeling the other party’s sight, Demacia secretly complained.

“Slip away…”

He turned around and fled without a moment’s hesitation.

“Human woman…”

Gulu chuckled.

At the first sight of the other party, it recognized that this so-called “woman” seemed to have been cast with some kind of disguise magic.

Could it be a mercenary?

Gulu had some guesses in his mind.

However, since he had discovered the other party, he did not intend to let the other party run away.

Two hundred missing goblins is not a small number!

This damn bastard must be caught!

Gulu gnashed his teeth in his heart.

It is not worried whether there are any hidden mercenary forces behind the other party. Since the other party dare not appear in front of it openly, it means that the other party knows that its strength is not as good as it.

Even dealing with goblins requires insidious means, which just shows that the other party is guilty!

Thinking of this, it decisively waved the huge skeleton staff, and an extremely cold energy emanated from the gem on the staff.

Accompanied by waves of strange energy fluctuations, skeleton hands stretched out from under Demacia’s feet and grabbed his legs fiercely…

At the same time, Eve, who was watching the player’s live broadcast in the divine space, was shocked and suddenly felt a throbbing from the heart slowly emerging.
