Reiner took a few people and left the team, following Fiona to join the orc army.
Looking around, there were probably hundreds of orc warriors crouching and hiding in the snow.
Most of the orc warriors were injured to varying degrees. Some had their arms wrapped in bandages, while others had half of their faces bandaged. The burns looked similar to the one Aidan had suffered.
Occasionally, you can see a few orc mummies, several pieces of burnt charred corpses, lying quietly in the middle of the snow.
As soon as they appeared, they became the focus of the scene, and the orcs cast curious glances at them.
Fiona waved her hand and said softly, "Lord Reiner, I often mention you to them, so they are quite curious about you. Please don't mind."
"Compared to this, I'm more interested in what you said just now. The orcs of the Viper Clan are undergoing their summoning ceremony. Tell me more about it." Reiner asked softly.
Fiona had already led them for several kilometers in the forest. They had been in a hurry and had no time to ask her.
She only said it briefly, leaving Reiner confused.
Fiona shuttled through the dense forest, occasionally brushing aside pine branches with her hands. "The black magic of us orcs is a terrifying magic related to darkness and death. Some of these extremely ancient black magics can use lives as sacrifices to summon extremely terrifying dark monsters..."
After saying that, she squatted in front of the bushes and gently beckoned Reiner to come over.
Fiona gently pushed aside a patch of bushes, and what came into view was a large withered pine forest.
There was not a single sign of life in this forest. Animal skeletons could be seen everywhere, and a strange green mist was emitting from the cracks in the dry earth.
There's no doubt about it, this area is filled with fel energy.
Aliana said angrily, "They destroyed the forest!"
Reiner opened his eyes wide and saw orc remains hanging on many pine trees, and black blood dripping into the crimson skull altar.
The magic circle below the altar was shining with green light.
A cold wind blew, and Reiner couldn't help but shiver.
Fiona whispered beside him, "These are all summoning sacrifices. Most of them are captives they captured a few days ago."
As soon as he finished speaking, Reiner saw some body parts that did not belong to the orcs.
"The vast majority...of the sacrifices include members of their clan?"
Fiona nodded with some embarrassment. "The older the black magic, the darker and more cruel it is. Ten years ago, when my father was still the high priest of our Rock Clan, he occasionally used his own people as sacrifices.
It was not until I became a priest that this practice was banned and wild animals were used as sacrifices instead.”
Reiner almost lost interest in learning the black magic.
Thinking about it carefully, the goblin priest he had encountered before, when he was finally in dire straits, had directly taken the lives of hundreds of his tribesmen and injected them all into the half-dead tyrant's body...
This is probably a very powerful black magic.
Aliana trembled, she hugged Reiner's arm tightly, and muttered softly: "How cruel... Terrible orcs."
Martina poked Reiner's butt and asked in confusion, "What is the elf mumbling about?"
"She felt the orcs were cruel and she was afraid."
Martina snorted softly: "It doesn't matter, I will take action."
After saying that, she subconsciously stood up and acted arrogantly.
But within two seconds, she was punched by Nora: "We are going to ambush them. If you let us get discovered, I will..."
