Don't call me evil god

Chapter 569 Chain Reaction
When Ram first learned that the Stone Fort had been infiltrated and corrupted by cultists, he was quite shocked.

A cult organization that has secretly controlled Stone Castle for more than ten years?
No one noticed?!

If this message didn't come from the will of a god, Ram would really find it hard to believe.

At that time, the biggest thought in Ram's mind was - thanks to the believers of the God of Knowledge for coming, otherwise, God knows how much damage those cultists could have brought to the stone fortress.

He didn't dare tell the news to people around him.

Because he couldn't be sure whether those friends and family members he was familiar with were still themselves, or... they had been transformed into followers of the evil god and were in disguise.

Ram had not previously joined the hunt for cultists.

Because he didn't think he was a dwarf who was good at fighting.

The dwarf's naturally strong body allows him to easily draw out anger from his body, and with a little training he can master combat skills and possess the strength equivalent to a tier 1 warrior.

Ram's original life was very simple and monotonous.

He worked as a blacksmith during the day, drank, wrestled, and played dice at night, and then went to bed.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with this.

Before this, he had never thought about fighting at all. It had nothing to do with him.

But when the turmoil came, after browsing the latest news on the Temple of Truth, Ram fell silent.

A total of 10 terrifying monsters were rapidly approaching the stone fortress;
Is this the disaster brought about by the cultists?
Ram swears with his forging hammer that he will not be able to stop the hundreds of human believers of the God of Knowledge who have come to the stone fortress.

Even if one person has 10 or 100 lives, they can't stop it.

Enemies of this level would require the full might of the Stone Fortress to have a chance of destroying them.

But this is the key.

Are the nine clans still reliable now?
Although the messenger has been beheaded, the dwarves who have been converted and brainwashed are still devout believers of the "Supreme Truth". Could they have become the biggest traitors at this critical moment?
If they were traitors, wouldn't that mean that Stone Fort's top force was gone?

……

Ram's bad premonition came true.

The nine clans are indeed unreliable.

A riot suddenly broke out among the gathered crowd.

When the Stone Spirit fetus was awakened, it seemed to cause some kind of chain reaction.

All the dwarves who had been transformed and brainwashed by the messenger through the rebirth ritual began to fall into madness one after another.

With red eyes, they began to indiscriminately attack all the dwarves around them!
"Darling! What are you doing and why are you hitting me?!"

"Are you crazy? Who pissed you off? Why are you hitting me?!"

"What's wrong, darling?!"

The crowd quickly fell into chaos. Many dwarves who had been following their lovers, brothers, and friends nervously asking about the situation a second ago suddenly and completely lost their minds.

Those who have weapons should use them directly, and those who don’t have weapons should use their fists or even their teeth!

Twisted scarlet violent rage surged on the surface of their bodies. Several innocent people were caught off guard and were stabbed into pieces by the crazy dwarves.

The monsters hadn't arrived yet, but the interior of the stone fort had already begun to fall into chaos.

"Gok! Damn those cultists!"

Ram Korla cursed viciously.

No one knows which will come first, the accident or tomorrow.

Although 1000 dwarf believers may seem like a large number, the proportion is still too small when distributed among a stone fortress that has more than people.

Ram estimated that he was probably the only one at the scene who knew the reason why these guys went crazy. With the monsters at the doorstep, there was no time or resources to start another civil war!

He also received the blessing from Norwen, and he should stand up at this time, announce the truth to the uninformed dwarves, organize everyone, and jointly suppress these polluted dwarves.

"Everyone! Listen to me!!!"

Ram shouted loudly.

"I have solid evidence! These lunatics have been contaminated by the power of the evil god. They are now lost and are no longer the friends and companions you know!"

"A greater danger is approaching the Stone Fort! We don't have time to hesitate! We must suppress them immediately!"

In order to set an example, Ram didn't care that he was not good at fighting. He took aim at a crazy dwarf who was making trouble in the crowd and charged at him!
Gritting his teeth and grasping the opponent's hand axe handle, Ram continued to shout loudly while wrestling with the opponent with a red face:
"Come and help me! Knock them down! Tie them up first! We'll deal with them after the bigger danger is resolved!"

If it were a city where humans gather, Ram's appeal would most likely have little effect.

Human minds are complicated, and everyone has their own ideas and calculations. Riots can quickly ferment into mass panic, and one or two sober people cannot change the overall situation at all.

Fortunately, this is Stone Castle, a city belonging to the dwarves.

The unity of the dwarves is in their bones.

Their previous unrest and turmoil were more due to the lack of backbone.

No one knew what was going on, everything happened so suddenly that they didn't know how to deal with it.

Ram stepped forward and acted as the temporary leader of the crowd! At least everyone knew what to do now!
One call and a hundred followers gather!
"Understood! Brother! I'm here to help you!"

"And I!!!"

"I'll help you call the guards!!"

"I'll go inform the others!"

"..."

Similar scenes were played out simultaneously in various areas of the Stone Fort.

Faced with the intensifying disaster, those who took the lead in taking the lead and appealing, calling on or mobilizing the crowd were, without exception, almost all dwarves who had just received the blessing of Norwen.

This is Stoneburg, a city belonging to the dwarves.

Now that they already know what to do to protect the city, there is no reason for them to be cowardly and escape before the battle!
There are no deserters, cowards, or wimps among the dwarves.

This race is almost a natural warrior.

It is their duty to protect the stone fort!
……

The dwarves who had been transformed and brainwashed by the "Rebirth Ceremony" over the past decade or so have gone collectively mad, causing turmoil within the Stone Castle. But considering it from another perspective, this is not entirely bad news.

Although for a large number of unaware dwarves, the sudden discovery that the nine clans have become a breeding ground for evil and that thousands of dwarves have been contaminated and turned into followers of evil gods would certainly make them quite devastated.

But this did help everyone reach a consensus quickly:
The nine clans are no longer reliable. If they want to defend the stone fortress, they can only rely on themselves now!

Even the most stubborn dwarf has to accept this reality.

The most direct chain reaction brought about by this turmoil was that the dwarves' traditions that had lasted for nearly a thousand years were shattered in the face of the crisis.

The tradition that "only dwarves from the nine major clans can live on the second floor of the stone fortress for a long time" has been completely abolished.

A large number of dwarves who had lost their surnames and had been separated from their families for dozens or hundreds of years raised their weapons and rushed into the second floor in a mighty force under the leadership of the Norman believers!
To defend against the enemy, you must first stabilize the country.

Before the Stone Spirit Freak arrives, they must help the remaining relatively sober members of the nine clans to suppress their own people who have gone completely crazy!
