Chapter 241 The Power of Faith, Hunting

In the Ninth Realm, "Orc" is a broad term that encompasses countless races that resemble both humans and beasts.

The oldest orc race among them is the green-skinned orcs, who are characterized by tallness and strength.

However, during the ancient war between gods, the chief god of the ancient orcs openly provoked the female gods and threatened to do dirty things to the gods of all parties after defeating them.

In the end, the ancient orc god was sunk into the turbid world on the first day of the war between gods, becoming the first victim of the war between gods.

And this type of ancient orcs were also implicated and cursed by the power of certain gods.

Since then, there have been few people with high intelligence among the ancient orcs, and orc priests who are proficient in magic are even rarer.

But the main god of the ancient orcs and a bunch of subordinate gods fell,

After his divine body fell into the turbid world, it was not without any effect.

The divine power and will remaining on these divine remains also subtly influenced the rules of the world, allowing the orcs with cursed IQ to find another way out.

That is... specializing in physical strength.

Like most Warcraft races, the Ancient Orcs possess physical strength far exceeding that of humans.

Among ordinary mages of the same level, nine out of ten will not survive once an orc approaches them.

Because of this,

Traditional mages were afraid of being killed in close combat during battles with orcs and monsters, so they invented the knight system, using knights who also specialized in physical training as shields.

Similarly, there are also mages who do not want to put their own safety on the shoulders of others.

So,

These incredibly talented mages created countless systems during those turbulent times.

Close combat techniques, necromancy techniques, curse techniques, and protection skills...

And so on,

Created over countless eons.

Today, the basic system of these close combat tactics has become nearly perfect.

This is also the reason why Gandalf, the peak wizard of the twelfth level, was able to fight the dragon alone with overwhelming force.

There is no other answer, only powerful strength.

Thinking of this,

Lin Luo took out the close combat tactics given by Altria and memorized it in his heart.

The sophistication of these techniques was enough for him to spend time exploring them.

Although the long-range magic he controls can burst out an attack power equivalent to three times the strength of his own mental strength.

This level of attack power is already at the ceiling level among the same level.

However, apart from his mental strength and agility, he was unable to fully utilize the advantages of the other two attributes.

I have to say,

This is a shameful waste!

Therefore, Lin Luo also secretly calculated in his mind and began to deduce the close combat tactics that suited him.

at the same time,

His mind moved slightly, and his figure suddenly disappeared in the air, turning into a wisp of breeze, flying along the route in Leonard's heart.

"The route he gave shows...

After entering the ancient orcs' territory, head southeast for more than 2,000 kilometers and you should find a giant statue."

The breeze swayed left and right, as if nodding secretly.

His current state is due to the effects of the improved concealment technique.

Transforming into a wind energy body, it can not only greatly isolate itself from external detection, but also be immune to all physical attacks.

But the disadvantages of this effect are also obvious.

As he moves through the air, he will appear as a vague outline when attacking or being attacked.

However, Lin Luo was not too worried about this.

"If it goes as expected, there shouldn't be anyone strong enough to find me in the orc tribe."

Leonard is only a peak seventh-order mage, and his mental attributes fluctuate, at best he can only be compared to a level 72 eighth-order mage.

Since he was able to escape from this dark night forest unscathed, how could Lin Luo not give it a try?

The reason why Leonard was able to enter this orc treasure house.

It was also because when he was being hunted, he was forced to use the secret art of the undead, and possessed the ability to transform into an undead creature in a short period of time.

While escaping, he accidentally stumbled into the orc treasure house in the Dark Night Forest.

Then,

In ghostly form, he relied on his ability to ignore obstacles on the ground to pass through layers of mountains, and finally caught a glimpse of a huge treasure house guarded by several lazy orcs.

Speaking of which, Leonard is also lucky.

Although this orc tribe is only a small tribe, they actually have an orc priest with strength reaching the ninth level.

With the strength of the seventh level, if you are lucky enough, you can take a walk in the orc treasure house and make a lot of money.

It's really enviable.

Lin Luo wasn't sure whether his weird luck value would work, so he was always on high alert.

The scenery flew past him, and the chirping of birds and the buzzing of insects passed by his ears.

Lin Luo himself also acted as a "conductor" of sound in this process.

soon,

He finally saw the giant statue towering into the sky.

Perhaps because the orcs' wisdom is cursed, the appearance of this statue is somewhat unbearable to look at.

I saw this statue made of star crystal copper, which was a thousand meters high.

The rough facial features are piled up casually, the unrestrained limbs are as strong as an ox, and the bulging blue veins are particularly obvious.

There are no extra decorations on the statue, only a layer of brown animal fur.

besides,

Lin Luo looked at the bloodstains that had not yet dried on the fur, and was very sure that this fur should have just been peeled off from a monster.

In an instant,

The active wind element suddenly sensed a "breeze" stirring in the wind...

Even so, Lin Luo did not look away because the statue's shape was too eye-catching.

On the contrary, he stared straight at the statue.

"This statue... is quite interesting."

Lin Luo said this meaningless sentence in his heart.

But in his eyes, the entire orc statue was covered by a thick layer of golden light.

A dreamy scent that only Lin Luo could smell filled the air.

If the power of faith contributed by Hughes is compared to a drop of water,

Then, the power of faith in this statue is equivalent to an entire river.

The more he sensed, the more Lin Luo could feel the enormous size of this power of faith.

Even the breeze that turned into a breeze couldn't help but start to float in the air.

As everyone knows, the gods of the ancient orcs have all fallen.

Even if one manages to survive the war of gods, one can only live a lingering existence and will never appear in the world.

So, this also means...

The huge amount of power of faith in front of him belongs to ownerless faith.

Lin Luo immediately made up his mind.

Gotta suck it up!

He knew that this was because for countless years, the ancient orc tribes had retained the sacrificial customs from when the gods were alive.

These powers of faith are the result of accumulation over time.

Even though the power of faith is overflowing into the space at any time, the power of faith stored in the statue still reaches a terrifying level.

"At least 2000M free attributes can be converted!"

He made a judgment in his mind and thought, “Don’t worry about the resources in the orc treasury for now.

During these ten days, the top priority is to incorporate these beliefs into the spiritual space.

When all this power of faith is absorbed, it will end!"

There is so much power of faith in front of him. Even if he has to swallow it all and leave it for transformation later, he must do it!

After tasting the power of faith, Lin Luo became addicted to it.

He turned into a breeze and floated quietly a hundred meters away from the statue.

In order to avoid any accidents, he had already prepared the teleportation spell in his hand, ready to retreat at any time.

But after repeated attempts, there was no accident, but the power of faith suddenly boiled over.

It was like pouring a handful of clear water on the calm surface of oil, and the power of faith was surging violently.

at this point,

As Lin Luo secretly activated his mental power, the majestic power of faith seemed to be attracted by a magnet, turning into a turbulent "waterspout" that rushed straight towards him.

Just a glance, and the surging golden ocean instantly submerged Lin Luo.

But this scene is only what Lin Luo sees after activating the Eye of True Vision, and no other creatures can see it.

Under the statue,

The lazy orc guard scratched the soles of his feet, then scratched the mane on his head, but didn't notice anything unusual.

Suddenly, an orc guard pulled down the fur wrapped around his body and complained quietly, "Have you heard that the high priest said that we have to prepare for the next sacrifice in six days?

The last time we performed a ritual, some of the offerings were stolen by humans, and the power bestowed upon us by the statue was slightly reduced. The priest cursed those unfortunate creatures for the entire day because of this."

"That's right. I heard that the High Priest also cancelled their hunting qualifications after three months."

"Yes, we can't be careless!

Don’t be punished like them.”

The orc guards chatted intermittently, but their laziness did not change at all.

The only thing that aroused their interest was the "hunting" mentioned by the priest.

However, they hunt not only monsters, but all living creatures including humans.

Reproduction and plunder, repeating this cycle.

This is a habit of the ancient orcs that has never changed in tens of millions of years.

Moreover, perhaps because of the power of the orc god's skeleton, the physical strength of the ancient orcs became increasingly stronger.

What's more, a small number of ancient orc geniuses also possess a certain degree of magic immunity.

This is extremely bad news for humanity.

Fortunately, the human race's magic technology is constantly improving, and various countermeasures are emerging one after another.

As alchemy progressed, various war weapons gradually revealed their ferocious fangs.

An orc looked up at the noisy Feng'er, shouldered his alchemical mace, and interrupted, "Bah, hunting humans is becoming increasingly troublesome.

As soon as we step out of the territory, their flying iron lumps will suddenly appear above our heads.

Moreover, the tubes on those iron lumps can emit magic, and it hurts a lot when you hit them."

"What are you afraid of?"

One of the monsters said disdainfully, "Those smaller iron lumps can be knocked down by the priest with just one stick.

As for the bigger ones... our king can also take them down."

"What stick? The high priest said it was a staff!"

“I, I saw that hunt!

At that time, His Majesty the King's fists were so powerful that he blew up those so-called battleships with just one punch. I think the human race is no more than that."

"Hehe, you know what, there are quite a few human female mages and knights in those battleships. I think it's okay..."

“…”

As the words of the orc guard gradually changed,

Lin Luo suppressed his anger, put on a cold face, and withdrew the mental power that was monitoring their conversation.

Then, he thought that this was the game between all races for countless years.

a long time,

He sighed to himself and cursed inwardly: "It's not a pity to die!"

After taking a moment to adjust his mood, Lin Luo did not stop absorbing the power of faith.

The most urgent task is to strengthen yourself first. Acting impulsively now will only result in nothing.

not worth!

"However, there is still some valuable information in what these guys said."

Lin Luo was thinking about what the orcs had said.

The next sacrifice in six days, the power bestowed by the statue, the hunt in three months, and... the orc king.

Every word is so eye-catching.

Not to mention Lin Luo's surprise that offering sacrifices to the statue could give him feedback of power.

The fact that the alchemical battleship, which was regarded as a strategic weapon by the human empire, was as fragile as a toy in the hands of the orc king was enough for him to re-evaluate the threat posed to all races.

Lin Luo was surprised by the former.

This is because he has not yet been able to see from this statue what kind of special arrangement is inside it that can directly convert resources into power.

We can only observe it after six days when the sacrifice begins.

The reason why he reassessed the threat of alien races was,

This is because the peaceful scene in Shenglin Town is too deceptive.

Magicians, small vendors, and all kinds of magical creations can be seen everywhere...

A remote town could be so prosperous that Lin Luo almost mistakenly believed that the Aklan Empire had already suppressed the Eight Wildernesses.

However, in reality, it was a difficult battle during the invasion of foreign races, and countless soldiers shed their blood.

But Lin Luo also understood that the Star-Moon Continent was vast and boundless, with countless races living there.

This branch of the human race alone would inevitably appear weak and powerless on the Star-Moon Continent.

What's more, the human race on the Star-Moon Continent has established dozens of countries of varying sizes.

Even if there are no large-scale conflicts between the kingdoms, continuing to disperse like this will inevitably weaken the overall combat effectiveness.

Lin Luo sighed quietly in his heart. Even though he had some ideas in his mind, these things were not something he could change at the moment.

After thinking about it, he extracted some fragments of the conversation between the orcs and recorded them using the photography technique.

The images were then sent to Davis using the contact information found on the supplies list.

Even if he is not from this world, it is necessary to remind the human race in this world of the possible orc invasion in three months.

Of course, he discarded all the information related to the orc statue and its surroundings.

This is done to prevent exposing one's own position so as not to be noticed by those with ulterior motives.

As for whether Davis believed it or not, or perhaps he already knew it, this was not within Lin Luo's consideration.

After doing all this, the entire space fell silent, with only a few dissatisfied cries from the orc guards from time to time.

Time passes, the night deepens...
