Chapter 16: The Extinction of the Barbarian Tribes
"My lord, this is a sacrifice from the devil."
Isabel opened her hands and presented three items.
Lu Yao first picked up one of the black statues.
The statue was about the same size as a seal and looked like a ball of soft black mud, with a texture between rubber and clay. There were many eyes in the black mud, all of which were a gloomy dark red, and looked a bit evil.
…
[Statue of the Skinner LV3]: Faith +3/hour, Attack +2, can start the beast transformation ceremony to gain the power of faith.
A treasure made by the Skinner. It can be used to start the beast transformation ritual. By gazing at the living sacrifice, the sanity, cognition, and memory are taken away, turning it into a powerful skinned beast in exchange for the power of faith given by the Skinner.
…
Lu Yao thought to himself, what a great guy.
No wonder Lisa said she makes extra money doing religious things.
She sells players to this mysterious skinner in exchange for faith, similar to being a human trafficker.
[Skinner Statue] is a bit like the gaze of Medusa in mythology, and is a special concept attack. When the two players were attacked before, they would never have thought that the real threat was not the beastman or the blood curse, but this inconspicuous statue.
In addition, this treasure actually has a level symbol.
It seems that it can continuously upgrade its level and has growth attributes, which is a feature that other props did not have before, which shows its precious value.
Lu Yao put down the statue and picked up another object.
This is a whistle made of some unknown bone. The surface is yellowed and it looks quite old.
…
[Evil Bone Whistle]: Faith +2/hour.
A treasure made by the Whistleblower. By blowing the whistle, you can control insane monsters and beasts.
…
The ability of the bone whistle is concise and it is a specific functional prop.
[Statue of the Skinner] plus [Evil Bone Whistle], the ability combination and compatibility are a typical 1+1>2.
The two form a simple combo.
[Statue of the Skinner] transforms a person or a specific creature into a beast, and [Evil Bone Whistle] further tames the beastly individual and uses it for its own purposes.
No wonder Lisa said before that when she was her dog.
She wasn't joking, she was just stating the facts.
Lu Yao looked at the last offering.
This is a letter. It is sealed with wax, but it can be easily torn open.
Inside were two yellowed sheets of letter paper.
…
[Drifting Letter]: Faith +1/hour, 2/5 usable letter paper.
By writing in the letter, through the gift, the letter can be delivered to a specific individual in the lower dimension. The recipient will definitely be able to recognize the information in the letter.
…
When the black bear attacked the tribe before, the letter dropped from the corpse was the effect of this item.
The barbarian tribesmen have well-developed muscles, but their intelligence is hard to describe.
The barbarian hero transformed by the [Statue of the Flayer] has a stronger body, but is also closer to a beast without intelligence.
So even if he could identify the letter, he would end up attacking the wrong place.
Lu Yao thought about it.
The beastly ritual mode created by [Statue of the Skinner] is completely opposite to my own development strategy. This thing may be faster to believe in, but it is essentially working for the Skinner, attracting hatred everywhere, which will only cause the wrath of heaven and people. It is most suitable as a pendant, at least it can add two points of strength.
"Isabelle, this thing is for you. Try not to use the beast transformation ritual and just use it as an ornament." Lu Yao directly assigned it to his apostles.
"Yes, sir." Isabel took the statue with both hands.
As for the [Evil Bone Whistle], this thing can control wild beasts and monsters...
"I give it to you, too."
Lu Yao directly equipped Isabel with all the equipment. The bone whistle and the statue were originally a set, and the combination of the two was more powerful. This was also the skill set that Lisa carefully matched.
"Yes, sir." Isabel took the bone whistle again.
Lu Yao asked her: "By the way, if the props are not used, is there any other way to deal with them?"
"My Lord, the gods will also exchange certain treasures with each other. However, if you really can't use them, or if the characteristics of the treasure itself will bring negative effects... you can throw them directly into the temple bonfire, that is, the fire of faith, and burn them to gain a certain amount of faith."
"I see."
Among the three trophies, only the [Drifting Letter] was kept by Lu Yao.
This thing is useless in Lisa's hands, because the barbarian tribe has no wise men and does not develop civilization, but it is a useful consumable item in her hands.
Lu Yao could only guide the two wise men of the Garlic Tribe, the prophet and the shaman, indirectly to understand his meaning.
The [Drifting Letter] is a supplement.
Lu Yao was in a good mood.
The first thing he did was to find the demon Lisa lurking in the dark, and watched the police arrest her, thus eliminating the security risk that he was most worried about.
Even if she used some tricks to escape, she knew Lisa's true identity, but she didn't know her own true identity.
In the past, the enemy was in the dark and we were in the light, but now the enemy is in the light and we are in the dark. The roles have been reversed, and Lu Yao has the advantage.
Then three valuable loots were obtained.
Just the fixed faith income of +6/hour per day made Lu Yao laugh out loud.
Adding the [Cactus Follower] and [Energy Cane], a total of 8 points of Faith are generated every hour, and 24 hours a day, that's 192 points! In the past, Faith savings were tight, and using miracles had to be thought over and over again. Now it's relatively comfortable, it rains when it should rain, and whoever needs to be electrified can be electrified.
However, before returning to "God Simulator", Lu Yao still had a key question.
"Isabelle, why don't you use your abilities at all?"
"My lord, using the Last Prayer will consume mana. Mana is precious, and it is not worth it to use it against a weak enemy of that level."
"What about the Sword of the Forest?"
"Because the target is too weak to trigger the effect of the Forest Sword."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Lu Yao felt a little regretful and returned his eyes to Isabel.
Isabel took the eyeball and skillfully put it into the eye socket under her sunglasses.
Lu Yao turned his attention back to the simulator.
…
Although Lu Yao couldn't kill a human player like Lisa, he still had the courage to take ruthless action against Lisa's barbarian tribe, and he was very brave.
At this time, Lisa was probably still drinking tea in the police station and couldn't operate the simulator.
Lu Yao directly clicked on [Miracle] and selected [Earthquake].
Earthquakes cost 40 points of faith.
Currently there are only 20 points of faith in the upper right corner, which cannot be used.
Speed is of the essence in war and no delay can be achieved.
Lu Yao directly took out a pen and wrote a paragraph on the [Drifting Letter].
"The demons believed in by the Barbarian Tribe have been defeated. Don't miss the opportunity. Immediately conquer and integrate the Barbarian Tribe to eliminate the threat."
Then he placed the letter on the mouse.
——Would you like to bestow the [Drifting Letter] upon your believers?
【yes】
Unlike before, the tribesmen this time did not realize that a gift from the gods had been delivered.
[Drifting Letter] After entering the pixel game world, it floats in the air.
Lu Yao tried to click and it worked as expected.
He dragged the letter directly onto the prophet.
An exclamation mark appeared above the prophet's head.
"Divine revelation!"
"The demons of the barbarian tribe have been defeated... Opportunity, a good opportunity!"
The seer and the shaman took immediate action.
The Garlic Tribe sent out thirty elite hunters, led by the Pig and Fish brothers, and rushed into the mountains.
Soon they found the location of the barbarian tribe.
"Discovered the barbarian tribe!"
"Attack, attack!"
A small tribe appeared in the mountains. There were only about twenty people left in the tribe. They lived outside a large cave. But at this time, the barbarians were lying on the ground, unconscious, and gray ghosts appeared above their heads.
They looked extremely weak, and even if the Garlic Tribe did not attack, they would not be able to hold out for a few days.
The Pig and Fish brothers easily captured all the barbarians.
There was a statue near the tribe's cave that was very similar to the statue of the Skinner. They chose to destroy it without hesitation.
Under Lu Yao's operation, the statue collapsed into pieces, and no trace of its former self could be seen anymore.
[The Garlic Tribe and the Barbarian Tribe have completed their fusion, and their faith has been enhanced. ]
The fusion of the Barbarian Tribe increased the total faith by 51 points, and now there are a total of 71 points of faith.
Lu Yao looked at the cave next to the former site of the barbarian tribe.
The hole looked suspicious, but he wasn't going to risk letting the pixel man go in.
Lu Yao clicked [Miracle], selected [Earthquake], and directly selected the cave entrance and its surroundings.
As 40 points of faith are consumed, the selected area begins to collapse and crack.
The huge rocks kept rolling down, and the cave entrance quickly collapsed. Amid the dust, a large amount of rubble soon completely buried the area.
In this way, if there is any abnormality in the collapsed cave, Lu Yao will be able to discover it and respond in the first time.
A prompt appears on the screen.
[The faith of God Jack has completely disappeared in the vicinity, and his followers will begin to look for a new god. ]
