Under the cold moonlight. ⌒,

A pristine and wild altar was erected near the Thornridge Valley, which was home to a species rare elsewhere on the road.

Steel Temple Boar!

The origin of this kind of creature has not been explored. It is only known that outside the human kingdom, that is, near the wilderness, many creatures similar to wild boars are active on the edge of the orcs' territory. These races are basically the same as the gnolls, they are the races that live a life of fishing and hunting, so in their daily life, [hunting] is an essential part.

The belief in Mara, the god of hunting, is widespread in this area.

It was already close to the early hours of the morning, a large number of bonfires were erected near the altar in front of him, and there were faint howls like wild boars and other messy sounds.

Many evil lycanthropes are staunch believers of Mara, the god of hunting.

At this moment, a large number of species have gathered near the altar, ranging from humans, orcs, lizardmen, gnolls to wild boars. Many creatures have divided their camps to stay near the altar. Because of racial barriers, even among believers who believe in the same god, the relationship between these hunters is not very harmonious, or unless it is an important person, they rarely gather together.

"Ow!"

There was a shrill wolf howling, and the gnolls near the altar couldn't help but look surprised, and even shrank in fear.

In the icy moonlight, a tall and burly figure was rapidly approaching.

It has an appearance close to a gnoll, but if you look closely, he is not a gnoll at all, he is a dark creature.

He is a werewolf!

As a dark species like vampires, the werewolf has innate abilities far beyond ordinary human beings. He watched other hunters with scarlet pupils, and then slowly walked to the center of the altar.

Dark species live by hunting.

Whether they are werewolves or vampires, a considerable number of people believe in Mara, the god of hunting.

the reason is simple.

Not only because of the priesthood held by the God of Hunting, but more importantly, he also has a very special field.

【Moon】Field!

As a god of chaos and evil, the God of Hunting was able to survive for such a long time. Naturally it is not so easy to deal with.

Ms. Silvermoon was very weak for a certain period of time, and even had to rely on the protection of the 'God of Love and Beauty' and survived by the power of the Goddess of Magic, that is, during this period. In order to expand his domain and increase the range of his followers, the God of Hunting took a long time to extend his domain, and he mastered the [Moon] domain.

It is because of this.

Many dark species have become his followers, especially the dark species of werewolves. There are many ethnic groups who believe in him.

well known.

The dark species always have a special sensitivity to the power of the moon. Since Mara, the god of hunting, has mastered the [Moon Domain], the lycanthrope and their own camps have been divided into two factions, and one faction still maintains the attitude towards Ms. Silver Moon. The other group turned to the embrace of the God of Hunting, who believed that the doctrine of the God of Hunting was more suitable for the nature of the dark species.

"The sacrifice begins!"

The burly werewolf stood in the center of the altar, looking down at the other species present, as if swearing his unique status.

This is a legendary species.

Compared with vampires who like to mingle with humans, many werewolves and wild life love to roam in the wilderness. Many of them live near orc territory.

A dull roar sounded.

A cheetah with a high biological level was lifted up, followed by a ground dragon with its limbs locked, and then a burly orc warrior.

One by one the prey was sent to the altar.

Almost all of them are creatures with high-level strength. They are all prey dedicated to the God of Hunting at this moment. The power of [Blood Desire] will awaken the God of Hunting and Killing.

"Why is there no legendary blood?!"

The werewolf glanced at the prey, frowned, and said solemnly, "Did you prepare all this garbage to dedicate to my lord?"

The god of hunting loves legendary blood.

Even if there are many high-level creatures in front of them, in the eyes of the werewolf, it is better to dedicate a legendary creature to gain the favor of the God of Hunting.

The ceremony is going on.

With the strong smell of blood, the prey were killed one by one, and the rich blood energy gathered on the altar. It eventually turned into a phantom of a twisted, roaring orangutan-like creature with fangs and claws.

This is the body of the God of Hunting!

One looks like a combination of an orangutan and a baboon, with a head a bit like a gnoll, a blood-red face, and ears like the outline of a dagger. It was covered with thick hair, strong limbs and powerful, and there was a trace of a tail behind it.

King of beasts.

Beast of black blood.

The body of the God of Hunting is a beast with high intelligence. It stares at the prey on the altar, and there is a trace of anger and dissatisfaction in the condensed phantom eyes, accompanied by a roar. The gnoll who was holding the ceremony suddenly bleeds to death on the spot.

Hula la.

A large group of hunters knelt down on the ground, and they prayed with fear and awe, praying that the god of hunting would not bring anger to them.

The god of hunting is very dissatisfied!

The burly werewolf seems to have expected this for a long time. Without the legendary blood dedicated to the master, it is useless to have more such high-level creatures.

"prey!"

The ghost of the God of Hunting let out an angry roar, and suddenly he turned his eyes to the distant hillside and roared: "The prey is there!...Catch her!...Dedicate it to me!...I want her blood!  …”

There are enemies nearby.

The burly werewolf realized this in an instant. He knelt down on one knee toward the phantom of the twisted beast in front of him, and said solemnly: "My lord! Hogg-Nock will bring his prey to you right away!"

Ow!

Accompanied by a wolf howl, several werewolf figures suddenly appeared in the darkness. The burly werewolf leader jumped, directly over a distance of more than ten meters, and rushed towards the hillside in front.

at this time.

The other hunters came to their senses one after another and rushed towards the hillside over there.

Under the cold moonlight.

A tall and sturdy figure escaped in embarrassment. She had pointed ears, which represented her elf status. On her back was a silver longbow, and on her waist was a delicate war blade. She is a skilled ranger, proficient in far-reaching attacks and melee combat. There is a special emblem on her chest, which looks like a star surrounded by stars, which is one of the symbols of [Moonwalker].

She's a Moonwalker member who serves Lady Silvermoon!

For some unknown reason, she lurked nearby to observe the bloody sacrifices held by the hunters for the god of hunting, Mara.
