Tufu came to the foot of the high platform with heavy steps and respectfully shouted: "High Priest!"

"Come up." The steady and powerful voice restored some composure to Tufu, who was already a little anxious.

Holding an oil lamp made of a solid stone snail carcass, he climbed the long stone steps and saw the back of the high priest.

He first bowed respectfully and saluted, then put the corpse lamp on a shelf aside, then came behind the high priest and spoke in a sad voice:

"High Priest, something happened to Priest Tuba. We saw traces of a fight at the scene, but his body was not found."

Having said this, Tuf paused and asked: "High Priest, do you know who the murderer is?"

"So what if you know, so what if you don't know?" Tuqi asked calmly, his voice lacking any emotion or anger.

Hearing something was wrong in the tone of the high priest, Tufu pondered for a moment before gritting his teeth and said, "If you know, please tell me the location of the murderer. If you don't know, I want to personally lead my warriors to track it down!"

"Why do you want to pursue it? If Tuba is dead, no one will compete with you for the position of leader in the future. Shouldn't you be happy about this?"

With a plop, Tufu knelt down on the ground, touched his head to the ground, and replied in a deep voice: "Although I have some friction with Priest Tuba, it is not because I seek the right to be the leader in the future, but to prove that I can lead better."

The rat race grows and grows.

"Priest Tuba is one of the only three priests of our rat-people clan. Now his death is a huge loss to our rat-people clan, so I want to avenge him."

Tuf waited for a while and found that the high priest did not answer his words. Even though he was the first warrior of the rat people and usually fought bravely and fearlessly, he couldn't help but feel uneasy at this moment.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for the high priest to speak, but the first sentence made him even more frightened, "Tuf, my child, I am very disappointed in you."

"High Priest!" Tufu couldn't help but raise his head and shout.

"Now that Tuba is dead, you will be the future leader of the rat people. No matter what you do, you can't be emotional. The most important thing now is to fulfill the great god's oracle and make a grand flesh and blood sacrifice. Everything else can be put aside first.

Just let it go."

"I want you to think clearly at all times, what does our rat race rely on to survive in the endless crypts!"

Listening to the rare harshness in the high priest's words, Tufu Shen claimed that it was the case and said: "High Priest, I didn't think carefully enough."

Tuqi nodded, his voice softened, and said: "Although your decision is wrong, your starting point is good. I believe you have enough ability to unite the tribe and gain their support. However, you must think more and be cautious before making a decision.

, it is not easy for the rat people to grow to the extent they are today."

"Yes, High Priest!"

"As for the enemy who killed Tuba, I have received revelation from my Lord. It was a mutated cave spider. Fortunately, with the help of a descendant of the devil, Tuba was killed in a sneak attack."

"Mutation?" Tufu asked.

"There are always a few lucky people in every race who can break through the shackles of the race, but don't worry, no matter how mutated they are, they are still crypt spiders, just insects."

"When the sacrifice is completed and we receive the gift from the great god, our rat race will be even stronger. At that time, whether you want to send a few tribesmen or you to take revenge yourself is up to you."

"I understand, High Priest." Tuf was happy in his heart. It had been a long time since he had heard the High Priest speak to him so kindly.

But what puzzled him was that since he arrived here, the high priest had not turned around to look at him. This was different from the past.

He looked at the back of the high priest. Under the illumination of the corpse lamp he brought, a long shadow was drawn. The lamp flickered, and the shadow also swayed strangely, which made him suddenly feel frightened.

So much so that Tufu shouted out of nowhere: "Father!"

Tuqi's body trembled slightly, but he did not turn around in the end, but his voice suddenly became a little older, "Go, don't forget what I told you, keep it in your heart."

"Yes!" Tufu's lips trembled, but he did not dare to disobey in the end. He stood up and walked to the shelf to pick up the corpse lamp, gave another salute, and then slowly backed away.

After walking to the foot of the high platform, Tufu looked back at the figure standing quietly on the high platform, and felt an inexplicable loneliness.

The footsteps gradually faded away, and the light also disappeared.

On the high platform, Tuqi slowly turned around, looked at the figure who had left long ago, and sighed, "My lord..."

In the darkness, the fluorescent grass-blue light fell, reflecting a pair of greedy, cruel, and endlessly hungry eyes.

...

...

With Fat Tou taking the lead, Qin Yuan easily passed through the passage connecting the two crypts.

Of course, this is not that Qin Yuan is harming the devil toad, but it would be too stupid not to use it even though he has the talent of "seeking good luck and avoiding evil".

As soon as he passed through the passage, Qin Yuan felt that his field of vision had broadened. The sky was higher, the earth was farther away, and it was brighter.

The size of this crypt is at least three times that of the previous crypt! Qin Yuan is very sure of his judgment.

What made him relieved was that there were no rats or gray rats killing randomly in this crypt, which was undoubtedly good news.

It has to be said that the power of the rat priest surprised Qin Yuan. If Fat Tou hadn't self-destructed first, it would have been difficult for him to get close even if he wanted to make a sneak attack.

But this does not mean that Qin Yuan is afraid of those rat men. Those rat men want his life for no reason. This debt will be retaliated sooner or later.

And not to mention anything else, just the fact that you can get divine power by killing rat men has already made Qin Yuan sharpen his sword.

What a divine power!

He is so lacking in divine power now. If a few more functions are enabled, his strengthening speed will definitely increase a lot.

Just like now, if he fights the Bloodthirsty Vine that once helped him a lot, he will basically not be able to get any rewards, but if he has an [Experience Bar], killing will force him to expend experience, even if he doesn't have much experience, but

If you accumulate a little, you can still upgrade.

The rules of the game are so unreasonable!

As for other [achievements], [tasks], etc., they all have their own uses. Besides, if he wants to strengthen Fat Head, he also needs to unlock more functions of [riding pet].

However, he is still too weak now. According to the future optical brain data, he has not even reached level 1. Although there is a reason why he suppresses himself and wants to lay a stronger foundation, but he is really weak.

.

For example, the previous rat-man priest has at least an eighth level of strength, and at level ten he can achieve extraordinary awakening or be promoted to a professional, mastering supernatural power.

However, Qin Yuan could feel that the wooden barrel that symbolized his foundation was deep enough, and it was very close to the time to pour water into the barrel.
