Chapter 469 The Serpent Trial

In the manor outside the city, a discussion among young people was taking place, and those present were all the preparation dragon princes who would serve as the backbone of the group in the future.

But at this time, they were discussing what this knight was.

"First of all, I think that since as the Knights of Caledor, we must add the fire dragon logo, we should call it the Knights of the Dragon Heart!"

Quinnier, the son of a champion warrior, slammed the table and spoke his mind without hesitation.

But Althea, who was second in the seat, had objections.

"Quinir, first of all, the fire dragon symbol is exclusive to the royal family. Although we are a knighthood established under the prince's instruction, we are not directly affiliated. And the only two fire dragon symbols in Caledor are the national flag and the flag of the dragon tamer family. You What is this intended to do?”

Kunir, who was a little proud of his father's identity, was speechless for a moment. How could he not know this? But the fire dragon symbol was a temptation that every Caledonian could not refuse. It symbolized the supreme honor.

Chief Elvis nodded in agreement,

"The application for the dragon mark needs to be reported to the palace, which is a very troublesome matter; and the core of our faith is Sotek, which has been said for a long time."

"Elvis, would you kneel down and worship a crawling snake? This is simply a disgrace to the Hallandur family!"

Compared to his father Masno, Quenir was undoubtedly a little more irritable, emphasizing Caledor's superiority.

These words made Pakar, who was observing the meeting, stop thinking and take a few steps forward, intending to tear the elf kid into pieces.

The blessing of the great lord Croka allowed him to understand things that most lizardmen could not understand, and the blessing of Sotek allowed him to be born. The Seal Lizard will not allow anyone to insult Sotek!

"Pakal! Remember our agreement, I will take care of this matter!" Elvis signaled the giant lizard not to act with a cold face, then turned to Quinnier and said,

"No matter how you belittle it, Sotigo has become a part of Caledor's faith, which is approved by the court and the noble council. If you dare to say similar words again, you will not be welcome in this knighthood, and I will insult the gods. Make accusations!”

The people present were a little noisy by this serious tone, and whispered about the impact of this incident.

It can be thought that Althea accidentally revealed before that this may be the prince screening some people. If they perform well in the knights, there will be a spot in the alliance ceremony of the dragon's awakening, so he can only bow his head and accept it.

Seeing that the people present did not continue to refute, Elvis nodded secretly. He vaguely noticed something in his heart, but before he understood it, it was best to follow the prince's instructions and get things done.

"The emblem of the Order will be an obsidian serpent, which symbolizes Sotek's faith as its core. The background is a volcano, which indicates that the members will be composed of Caledans. The serpent's mouth drips blood. This is our Purpose, blood sacrifice for Sotek.”

A flag was carried up by a servant and placed on the long table. Everyone could feel the breath of it firsthand, and unconsciously felt the blood in their minds, but their keen senses showed that this was an illusion.

"The full name of the Knights is - the Brotherhood united under the protection of Sotek to take revenge on Chaos."

Elvis clapped his hands, and Skink Priest Garguyar walked out of the shadows. His body was wrapped around two poisonous snakes. At first glance, it looked like there were three heads on his shoulders.

One was a viper with red scales and a horn on the tip of its nose, and the other was a dark gray viper with a bulging belly.

The viper stuck out its forked tongue and looked at everyone present, as if it could record it in its mind.

"As a result of my previous communication with the snake god prophet, I believe that an initiation ceremony must be conducted to select members. These two poisonous snakes are the hosts of the ceremony."

A person who studied Lustrian animals immediately stood up and looked at Elvis with disbelief.

"Are you crazy? You must know that these are golden spearhead vipers and giant vipers. The venom of the former is lethal enough to kill a bull in half an hour, and the venom of the latter will seriously corrode the nervous system and soon lead to permanent paralysis. We are The Caledonians are definitely not savage monkeys from primitive tribes!”

These words made Althea, who was fully supportive, a little worried. She didn't know about this link, but looking at Elvis's serious expression, she knew that this matter could not be faked.

"No, I'm not crazy. If you want to participate, you can stay. If you don't want to take the risk, you can leave now. You have ten minutes."

Some people began to hesitate, but the man who was familiar with the ruthlessness of venomous snakes had left immediately. Perhaps the elf's superb medical skills could save a life, but it would also create terrible hidden dangers.

One after another, some people scolded Elvis for turning into a lizard man for actually daring to use such a barbaric ritual.

Ignoring these useless insults, Elvis looked at the ninety-seven people present ten minutes later and knew what to do next.

No one knows what Elvis saw in the Scarlet Pyramid of Chacua, but since walking out of the bloody road, he has become a fairly devout believer in Sotek, at least he does not doubt that the god of vengeance can The power given.

The Golden Spearhead Viper and the Giant Viper, the two most deadly venomous snakes in Lustria, were placed on the table by the Skink Priest. First, he bit Elvis's arms respectively. After injecting some venom, he slowly Climb slowly towards the nearest Althea.

Due to a female's physiological reaction, Althea was a little afraid of these two squirming cold-blooded creatures, and her subconscious action was to use fireball to burn them into a ball of charcoal.

But looking at the cold look on Elvis's face, he could only close his eyes and let the subtle stinging pain come from his arms like lotus roots.

The people who stayed behind were all arrogant people. Anyway, no one could see the dangers of these two gadgets, relying on their firm belief in the Father of Dragons.

Not to mention the venom, even if it was Nurgle's cauldron of plague, these people would dare to walk inside and end up taking a sip of soup.

Five minutes later, the two hosts performed a welcoming ceremony for everyone, climbed back on the body of the Skink Priest, and faded into the shadows.

Ten minutes later, the poison began to take effect. Only then did some people who did not believe in evil realize the seriousness of the matter. They planned to use dragon thunder, which they only knew a little bit, to dispel the poison in the body, but it had no effect at all.

His lips began to turn purple, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, his eyes blurred, and his body became numb and it was difficult to move.

Twenty minutes later, the mage, who was not very strong, began to fall. Judging from the violent ups and downs of his chest, it looked like the last struggle before death.

Thirty minutes later, only Elvis was still sitting on the chair, watching quietly as Quinnier fell to the ground with eyes wide open.

Watching everything happening in the courtyard, the last survivor murmured to himself,

"Sotek, can you really live up to the prophecy..." (End of Chapter)
