Chapter 415: Battle begins
This was merely the start. Like they had received an order, the Minotaurs began to go berserk as those three-four meter tall monsters had their eyes turn completely red. They all wielded their axes and hammers as they began to attack the Shaman priests.
“They dare attack the Shaman priests.”
“The Shaman God will not let you go.”
“The Shaman God will curse you with the most evil curse, so you will wish for death!”
The goat race Shamans let out sharp and angry cries, but these kinds of threats had no use on these angered Minotaurs at all. The Shaman priests were very strong, but there were only five Shaman priests and over five thousand Minotaurs.
This was a fight without any suspense!
The Shaman priests did not have a powerful battle strength and with a large group of angry Minotaurs charging at them, they could not resist them at all. They were just threatening the Minotaurs, but they were instantly trampled into a pile of flesh and blood, no longer having their original appearance.
“Arnold!” The other locals all had very ugly expressions, with some chiefs being unable to roar out, “You shameless traitor, you actually betrayed your forest allies! Do you not want a good death?”
“Idiots!” Arnold’s large cow face revealed a taunting expressions, “You still don’t know you’re being used by others and father saved you all. It’s fine if you’re seeking death, but you’re implicating all the surrounding tribes!”
A tribe chief angrily roared, “What did you say?!”
“I have evidence that everything was a plot by the Shamans.” Arnold took out a broken piece of cloth, “This is something I found in the forest. There was witchcraft attached to this and the Shamans reduced the prey using this. It was all a plot!”
Arnold suddenly jumped onto a tall rock, “These despicable fellows wanted to use us as cannon fodder to attack Green City. There are many people among you all who are controlled by witchcraft, but you idiots don’t know at all!”
The Minotaur’s roar reverberated through the entire valley, making those locals stunned to the point of not being able to say a single thing.
At this time, the barrier was opened and the gnome army entered the valley.
“This Minotaur chief is correct!” The leading Green Religion priest shouted, “The Green City envoy three days ago was controlled by Shaman witchcraft, we can confirm this. This attack was stirred up by the Shamans, so we have reason to believe that there are people being controlled amongst you all!”
Arnold ordered the Minotaurs to grab the several large tribes’ chiefs and high level officers.
“What are you all doing?”
“Let go of our leaders!”
The Green Religion priest looked at Arnold.
Arnold said without any hesitation, “According to my observations, it should be these people.”
The Green Religion priest pulled out talismans which he placed on the chief and high level leaders’ bodies. When the talismans were activated, most of these people gave pitiful cries. They spat out insect eggs from their stomach and insects crawled out of the chiefs’ mouths. This scene made every person stunned.
“What is this?” The locals called out in fear.
“The witchcraft insect is very sinister, it can take your life at any moment and can control one’s thoughts. These chiefs were being controlled by witchcraft and there were times when they didn’t even know it. I think, they should be clear minded now!”
In the process of dispelling the witchcraft, although they suffered a lot of pain, it did no threaten their lives at all.
The local leaders all had ugly expressions. They all had strange thoughts during this time period which didn’t come from them at all, rather they came from this power forcefully burying itself in their minds. They looked at the insects that came out of them again.
So it’s like this, so it’s like this.
No wonder they became so wild.
No wonder they lost their reasoning.
No wonder they gathered so quickly.
Actually a cool headed person perhaps wouldn’t make the decision to attack Green City. Even if the Green City gnomes were weakened, it was not something the local tribes could resist. This kind of fight was equal to seeking death.
Arnold shouted, “Everything was done by the Shamans. Not only did they not hesitate to incite famine and chaos, causing harm to our tribes, they also want us to attack Green City to use us as cannon fodder! How can such a thing be accepted in this world? According to what I think, we should take eye for eye, we should let the Shamans taste the anger of the forest!”
The locals realized they had all been played, erupting with roars of rage.
“Green City is willing to help everyone fight the evil Shamans.” A Green Religion priest sword, “We swear in the name of the Forest God that if the local warriors are on the brink of destruction do not cause any losses to Green City and help us fight the Shamans, Green City will not only not hold you responsible, we will also provide you food and help you through this time of crisis!”
Vows in the name of Spiritual Gods was definitely something that could be trusted, so the locals did not have any worries.
“What are you all hesitating for?” Arnold’s nose let out two clouds of white steam, “The evil Shamans have harmed many Minotaur tribesmen, so the Minotaurs must take revenge for them!”
Even if they were dumb, they could still think it through.
This was why the Shamans appeared in each tribe when the crisis erupted. Not only were they convincing the various tribes to unite, they were also inciting them to fight. In the end, everything was planned by them and the forest tribe chiefs were playing in their palms!
The locals entered into a wild rage.
The poison within the locals were not toxic.
They would only lose the ability to use spirit energy for an hour, so most of them had already recovered their strength!
“Kill the Shamans!”
“Kill the Shamans!”
Each chief was filled with anger from shame, which quickly spread to all the locals. The gnomes saw this situation and immediately opened the barrier. Large groups of locals charged like a stream, wildly rushing into Green City.
High Priest Mars inside the Shaman Temple was shocked by this, “The locals charged in this quickly? The Green City troops should be distracted by the locals and even if it is a part that is drawn away, this is a chance for the Shamans. If these several hundred thousand people added to the two thousand voodoo puppets cannot take Green City, I would not believe it!”
But at this time.
Large waves of fire arrows rained down on the Shaman temple. They fell onto the walls, the tables, and even the statues. The flames immediately ignited everything around them.
High Priest Mars’ expression sunk, “The gnomes dare move against us first? Go! Send out the voodoo puppets and have them taste the might of the Shamans!”
The voodoo puppets charged out of the Shaman temple like meteors.
At this moment, several thousand gnome archers and soldiers leading ten Green Protectors to surround this place were faced with the wild attack of the Shaman temple. They suddenly saw a large group of dark shadows charge out from inside and each one was filled with curse and witchcraft energy.
The Green Religion priests seeing this had their expressions change, “Be careful! This is the Shaman Religion’s voodoo puppet!”
The gnomes’ archery skills were not inferior to the elves. After their spirit energy entered the arrows, each arrow flew out with a streak of light. They were incredibly fast and sharp. The voodoo puppets running in the front were slammed by the streaks of light.
“The voodoo puppets are only like this!”
The gnomes felt a bit more relieved. The voodoo puppets were torn to pieces as they filled with sky with gu insects, just like a dark cloud made of flakes. They instantly reformed in front of the gnome archers and took the form of the voodoo puppets once again, seeming like they weren’t injured at all.
The voodoo puppets were refined by the Shaman priests with a large amount of effort and resource. They were filled with curse and witchcraft energy, so before those energies were exhausted, they could not die at all.
“Ah!”
A gnome let out a pitiful cry.
The voodoo puppet lifted them up with a single hand. Their flew up at a speed the naked eye could see and they inflated like a balloon. With the sound of rupturing, countless poisonous insects and a large amount of poison erupted from their body. There was not a single gnome nearby who wasn’t lucky enough to avoid being splashed.
Too terrifying!
The witchcraft and curse powers it had were too strong!
Mars led a group of Shaman priests out of the temple. His white hair floated in the wind and his skinny face made him look like a gloomy skeleton, “Those Green Religion idiots, they want to attack the Shaman temple, but this bit of people isn’t enough!”
The Shaman priests controlled those voodoo puppets and the strength of two thousand puppets were enough to wipe out an army.
These gnomes were the elites of their clans, but it was still impossible for them to resist these Shamans.
“Since you’ve came yourselves, this old man will accept this without courtesy.” Mars was determined to kill these elites in front of him first before sending the voodoo puppets to directly attack the gnomes’ castle, “Kill, kill them all!”
“Quickly retreat!”
“Quickly retreat!”
The gnomes desperately retreated while the Green Protectors guarded their retreat. These few Green Protectors obviously couldn’t protect them all and the Shaman priests continued sending the voodoo puppets to attack. They soon quickly destroyed the Green Protectors and began to quickly chase down the elves running away.
Mars had a look of taunting and ridicule on his face, but this expression did not remain long.
This was because the gnomes fell back to a group of Green Religion priests which knocked Mars back to his senses. He remembered in the fight just now that Green City had not sent the Green Religion priests. There was only one possibility, this was a ploy to draw them all out.
“Come back!”
When Mars gave his order, the Green Religion priests seized this chance to attack the Shaman priests before they could fight back. There were no vines that filled the air or were there tree monster summoned, there was only an incomparably large source energy array activated by the Green Religion priests. The Shaman priests had never seen this source energy array before, but the Shaman priests were all shocked.
The voodoo puppets entering the source energy array lost the ability to stand as they fell like piles of skin. Those insects made pitiful cries as they tried escaping from the body, but they died as soon as they fell to the ground without any time to struggle.
It happened in the blink of an eye.
This source energy array had killed several hundred voodoo dolls which was enough to fill these Shaman priests were incomparable shock!
