A real man never looks back at an explosion, and Driggs is no different.
But just as he turned away from the burning body of the ghost mantis, the remaining body of the ghost mantis exploded without any warning!
There was a loud "bang!" and a large amount of yellow-green gas exploded along with the explosion and spread rapidly.
Driggs immediately realized that something was wrong, so he held his breath and quickly moved away. However, even so, his mind began to fall into an abnormal state of dizziness.
——(How could this be… am I poisoned?)
Driggs didn't think he had inhaled any poisonous gas, so there was only one possible reason for his poisoning...
——(Could it be the blow that just hit my side?)
Thinking of this, Driggs immediately looked at the wound that was burned black by himself. Only then did he realize that the skin around the wound had turned into a strange yellow-green color.
"Damn it."
Driggs cursed and walked quickly towards Woodcorn.
·
Similar to the Bleeding state, the Poisoned state will spread faster as the Poisoned person's activity intensifies.
Driggs didn't dare to engage in strenuous exercise again until he found out what poison he had been poisoned with.
Then, as Driggs had feared, Woodcorn's team found themselves in the same situation.
The "resurrected" Phantom Snow Ghost Mantis successfully launched a sneak attack, killing three war horses that were transporting supplies and injuring many soldiers.
Later, his self-explosion at the time of his death poisoned a large number of people, including Woodcorn.
"This is truly a ghost! I've never heard of a 'ghost' exploding!"
Driggs saw Woodcorn swearing for the first time.
Obviously, this experienced yak man also failed because of empiricism.
Driggs and Woodcorn's previous understanding of the Phantom Snow Mantis became the main reason for their suffering this time.
Fortunately, the Feiqi family cavalry brought a lot of purification potions. In the absence of clergy combat professionals accompanying them, the purification potions were the savior for those who were in abnormal conditions.
Under the command of Driggs and Woodcorn, everyone tried to use purification potions to expel the toxins from their bodies while being vigilant against other monsters that might appear.
After the experiment, they finally got some good news and some bad news.
The good news is that a purification potion can stop the poisoning radius from spreading;
The bad news is that the purification potion cannot purify the poisoned parts;
Under such circumstances, considering that some war horses had to be spared to share the losses of the baggage train, it would be difficult for both the Plateau Hearthfire Guild and the Scarlet Qi Family Cavalry to continue tracking or even intercepting the Dark Rabbit Clan's migrating team.
·
"Do you believe that what happened tonight was a coincidence, my lord?"
Under the moonlight, Woodcorn asked Driggs with a helpless look on his face.
Driggs gave a wry smile and didn't directly answer Woodcorn's question. Instead, he directly pointed out the essence of the problem.
"Mr. Vice President, it seems that the legendary Dark Rabbit Clan is not something we can afford to provoke with our current number of people."
Upon hearing this, Woodcorn also smiled bitterly.
He now felt that they must have been so immersed in the joy of discovering the Dark Rabbit Clan that they acted so foolishly without any self-awareness.
How could the Dark Rabbit Clan, who have successfully lived in seclusion for decades, not be capable?
Tonight's "ghost" monster attack might just be a "well-intentioned" warning from the Dark Rabbit Clan.
"Yes, let's go to the union headquarters as planned. I'm sure the craftsmen are already waiting anxiously."
What Woodcorn said this time was truly sincere.
When you sense danger, the long-term strategy is to protect yourself.
However, things have developed to this point, and whether or not they can leave is no longer something Woodcorn and Driggs can decide on their own.
When the two specially treated Phantom Snow Ghost Mantises "died" one after another, Lord Rabbit God, who was dozens of kilometers away, clearly felt the fluctuation of magic power.
Lord Rabbit God originally intended to use these two toys to drive away the pursuers.
But to his surprise, the effects of these two simple toys were surprisingly good.
In that case, why not just kill all these annoying trackers?
After all, the old folks said it well...
If you don't remove the roots of the grass, it will grow again in the spring breeze.
10.165 - The Torrent of Destiny
Although Lord Rabbit God possesses considerable strength, he does not become arrogant because of this.
Lord Rabbit God knew the capabilities of the Plateau Hearthfire Guild and the Feiqi Family, so at the beginning, he just wanted to use the two modified Phantom Snow Ghost Mantises to scare these two forces and make them retreat.
As a result, the development of the matter exceeded the expectations of Lord Rabbit God, which made him want to take further action.
However, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.
Lord Rabbit God knew very well that in his current "incomplete" state, it was sheer wishful thinking to think that he could annihilate the two forces' manpower in the Besent region by relying solely on the "little trick" of transforming monster corpses.
If he really wants to eradicate the problem completely, what the Rabbit God needs most urgently is to complete the election of the next Dark Rabbit Queen as soon as possible so that he can obtain a new body through the "ritual".
At the moment, the annoying pursuers have been kept at a distance by the Dark Rabbit Clan, and Lord Rabbit God believes that these guys will not appear again in the short term.
·
This is a great opportunity for Lord Rabbit God to fulfill his wish.
·
——"Wusuqi, it's time to start selecting the next Dark Rabbit Queen.", Lord Rabbit God said in the mind of Dark Rabbit Queen Wuusuqi.
"Lord Rabbit God, our tribe is still on the move. Holding a selection ceremony would likely bring unnecessary danger. How about we wait until we enter the Farnas Empire and find a hiding place before conducting the selection? What do you think?"
Objectively speaking, Wu Suoqi's words were very appropriate, but they still angered Lord Rabbit God.
——"Are you mistaken, little witch? I'm not discussing this with you, I'm giving you an order."
These unquestionable words froze Wu Suoqi in place.
Having served Lord Rabbit God for so many years, she knew his temper well.
Once Lord Rabbit God gets angry, there will be no turning back.
——"The selection ceremony will be held tonight. Do you understand?"
"I understand, Lord Rabbit God."
In order to prevent the situation from getting worse, Wu Suoqi had no choice but to agree for now.
But how can we carry out the selection ceremony while ensuring the safety of the tribe?
Wu Suoqi had no choice but to bite the bullet and find a solution on his own.
·
The border between the Kraftsman United States and the Farnas Empire.
It is a vast, desolate and silent area.
The stars in the night sky sparkle like diamonds scattered on black velvet.
On the land under the starlight, the members of the Dark Rabbit Clan gathered in an open area, preparing for the long-awaited Dark Rabbit Queen selection ceremony.
Except for the guard members who were responsible for vigilance, basically all the Dark Rabbit people participated in the selection vote.
The Dark Rabbit people who participated in the selection included both pillars of the tribe nominated by the elders and young talents who bravely recommended themselves.
The Dark Rabbit Queen, Wu Saoqi, presided over the ceremony step by step, silently praying in her heart that no complications would arise. However, the lively atmosphere inevitably attracted the attention of the surrounding monsters, putting the situation of the entire tribe in danger.
·
The attack of monsters forced the selection ceremony to be suspended. The Dark Rabbit Queen, Wusuoqi, joined the battle of the Dark Rabbit Guard and killed all the invading monsters together.
After the battle, Wu Suoqi heard the Rabbit God laughing in his mind.
He smiled and said that the monsters were really stupid. They didn't know how to judge the difference in strength. They pounced on people as soon as they saw them, which was no different from moths to a flame.
At first, Wu Suoqi didn't quite understand what Lord Rabbit God meant. It was not until she received Lord Rabbit God's order to pile up all the corpses of the monsters together that she suddenly realized.
·
It turns out that the Rabbit God wanted to use this pile of corpses to transform into a real "monster".
·
"Is this also part of your plan, Lord Rabbit God?"
——"Uhuhuhuhu, what are you talking about? This was just a spur-of-the-moment idea~"
The Dark Rabbit Queen, Wu Suoqi, asked seriously whether Lord Rabbit God was being sincere or not.
But no matter what Lord Rabbit God is planning, Wu Suoqi will not agree with this approach that puts the entire tribe in danger.
Due to the monster attack, the selection process for the new Dark Rabbit Queen was delayed for one day.
Fortunately, the monster corpses that Lord Rabbit God had previously transformed caused enough trouble to the trackers, which allowed the selection ceremony to continue smoothly.
After layers of screening and voting, the crown of the new Dark Rabbit Queen finally fell on the head of the guard captain, Chikara.
Lord Rabbit God is quite satisfied with this successor of the fighting faction, but Wu Saoqi is worried that Qikara, who is good at fighting but not at literature, may get into trouble in the future.
·
No matter what Wu Suoqi thinks, the already determined selection results will not change.
When the coronation ceremony is over, Lord Rabbit God will transfer from Wusuoqi's body to Qikara's.
Then, the elderly Wu Suoqi will be truly "liberated".
——"Little Wusuoqi, please hurry up and prepare for the coronation ceremony~"
"Okay, Lord Rabbit God, everything will be ready within nine days."
——"Nine days? No, no, no, that's too long. I want to see little Chikara crowned within three days."
"But, shouldn't the 'Dark Moon Day' be nine days from now?"
——"Wuhuhuhu~ Since I said three days, then the day of the black moon will naturally arrive in three days. Just go ahead and prepare, little witch~"
Lord Rabbit God's words naturally carry unquestionable authority.
Wu Suoqi didn't think that he had misremembered the date or miscalculated the time. The only reason that could explain the advance of the "Black Moon Day" was the divine power of the Rabbit God.
This led Wu Suoqi to come up with a bold guess.
She guessed that her previous understanding might be wrong.
It is not because the "Dark Moon Day" has arrived that the "Rabbit God-sama" will reveal his true form, but because the "Rabbit God-sama" has revealed his true form, the "Dark Moon Day" will arrive.
When she was first crowned as the Dark Rabbit Queen, Wu Saoqi was still young and unaware of the tribe's secrets. Her focus was entirely on the coronation ceremony.
Now that she is old and has seen more things, she finally noticed the truth hidden beneath the prosperous appearance.
——(So, this is how the former Queen of Dark Rabbit felt before her coronation.)
Wu Suoqi showed a bitter smile. She was relieved that she could become the torch of the tribe, but she was also sad that this cycle of pain would continue.
When will the discriminated and excluded Dark Rabbit clan be able to live openly in the sunshine of the Prison Star World like other sub-human races?
Wu Suoqi failed to achieve this throughout her life, and this is her only regret in this life.
·
Three days later, the Dark Rabbit Clan arrived safely at the border of the Farnas Empire at sunset.
Before entering the Farnas Empire, they will hold a quiet and grand "coronation ceremony" in the bloody dusk.
10.166 - Coronation Ceremony
Above the vast wilderness, the setting sun, like a tired heart, slowly sinks on the horizon, illuminating the sky with its last rays of light into a blood-red.
Under the blood-red sky, there is no hustle and bustle of a town, only the silence and desolation of the wilderness.
