Chapter 678 Who is the greatest hunter?

Blue Bear Fury is the same as the Barbarian's Fury, which is an intrinsic attribute bonus. The defect is exactly the same as the Barbarian's Fury, which means that you will be unable to cast spells. On the other hand, when using this ability, it means that you have fallen into a melee state, and there is basically no chance to use the ability to cast spells. It is also possible to fall into the previous state of magic ability being banned, and there is no worry about this.

Unlike Fury, this ability can not only be used by oneself, but also on others. It is just limited to Blue Bear worshippers. This is the characteristic of totem spells. Not only Blue Bear Fury is like this, but also Blue Bear Totem Pole is the same. This is clearly prepared for those barbarians and berserkers who worship beasts, further strengthening their physical strength and making them invincible in this regard.

The Blue Bear Totem Spirit, which is also the incarnation of the god, is somewhat inferior to the plundering and destroying arms. When dealing with those Mala believers before, this pair of extra arms played a great role. Not only did Gavin's melee tactics become extremely changeable, but it also plundered two more superb abilities for him. And this is just the beginning. When he starts plundering in a planned way in the future, Gavin will build a superb body.

The Blue Bear Totem Spirit provides this ability, which is a bit unworthy of its origin.

As the holder of the Blue Bear Totem Spirit, Gavin knows the essential difference between the two.

Although the plundering and destroying arms are powerful, they are dead objects. Unless Gavin can continue to win the war against the plunderer Garagos, continue to plunder abilities from his body, and continue to strengthen these arms, just like plundering the power of the undead goddess of vengeance to nourish the war plunderer, otherwise its ability is fixed.

The blue bear totem spirit is different. It is weak now because it was initialized by Gavin's destruction of evil. Not only has its personality been reset, but its strength has also basically returned to its original state. If you want it to become strong again, you must cultivate it yourself.

The supply is nothing else but totem belief. This belief is not limited to the Uthgar barbarians. As long as Gavin has the ability, even if the kobolds believe in blue bears, they can be transferred to beast worship shamans and barbarians.

Anna, the priest of Ilmat, has proved with practical actions that this cause that goes against the nature of their race is not as simple as getting half the result with twice the effort, but it is extremely difficult to promote it, but it is extremely easy to destroy it.

No matter how violent the kobolds are, they are still a small race. It is difficult for them to surpass humans in strength and physique, not to mention the giants above them. Moreover, the blue bear is naturally not attractive to them. If it is replaced by a dragon totem spirit, they may flock to it.

In comparison, starting with the Uthgar barbarians, especially the blue bear tribe, will be a simpler thing.

As mentioned before, the Blue Bear Totem Spirit is just a seed, a medium for Gavin to intervene in the Beast Cult and the Uthgard barbarians. How far it can grow in the end depends on Gavin's personal ability.

As for whether occupying the Blue Bear Totem Spirit and not returning it will anger Uthgard, Gavin is not worried about this at all.

Because he is not prepared to step into the realm of animal gods like the hunting god Mala, and when he really starts the plan, he will definitely return the divine power of the Blue Bear Totem Spirit to Uthgard. He only needs the ruling power of the material plane.

If it is well planned, this matter can also help Gavin get additional benefits from Uthgard and establish a close relationship.

Although Uthgard has been despised by Tempus recently, he is still a weak divine power after all, and his comprehensive strength is far from what Ms. Strategy, who has just ascended to the godhood, can match.

Ms. Strategy represents the future development trend of the war pantheon. Before the war concept of the whole world has not changed, barbaric war is still the main theme.

Moreover, the body strength represented by Uthgar will not be abandoned even in the new war mode. On the contrary, it will be further standardized and collectivized. Uthgar's method of strengthening the tribesmen by using totem beliefs has great reference value. Can it be integrated into the training of the army and the corresponding army can be formed in the mode of totem beliefs as the military soul of this army?

The expansion of new priesthoods does not mean that all old priesthoods have to be thrown into the pile of old papers. They can also make corresponding changes according to the development of the situation.

The plans and strategy priesthoods of Ms. Strategy are mainly games and wars between forces, between towns and towns, between countries and countries, between alliances and alliances, etc.

Those small-scale conflicts, such as the looting of villages and towns by monster forces, armed fights between villages and towns, etc., are mostly barbaric conflicts and looting. If they want to involve plans and strategies, they have to reach this level.

As long as there is a demand in the material plane, this priesthood has value and will not disappear completely. However, barbaric plunder and destruction are incompatible with the nature of Ms. Strategy, and it is difficult to integrate them into her own priesthood.

Therefore, even if Garagos the Plunderer is killed and his priesthood is seized in the later stage, a part of it will be forced to be separated. Rather than throwing it to irrelevant people, it is better to digest it internally. I believe that Uthgar, as the son of Tempus, must be very interested in this aspect of the priesthood.

Rather than letting him eat the ready-made one afterwards, it is better to drag him onto the chariot to fight against Garagos the Plunderer from the beginning.

I have to say that Ms. Strategy chose Gavin as her divine choice. She really chose the right person. When she was developing, she did not forget to draw allies to her and expand her field of involvement. This has completely changed the relationship between gods and humans. The relationship between.

It is not God who affects people, but people who in turn influence God. This matter did not start now. It started when Gavin wrote the book of strategy. From that time, Gavin was destined to be entangled with Ms. Strategy. , this relationship will continue, and it will become more and more complex and unclear.

Ms. Strategy's importance to Gavin is also rising sharply, and she is said to be on call. This is not a treatment that ordinary voters can enjoy.

Let alone a divine incarnation or a possessed incarnation like Ms. Strategy, even the response is usually very vague or even non-responsive, leaving the electorate to speculate on their will - let alone a divine incarnation, even if it is a possessed incarnation, It is also very troublesome for the gods to come.

Just like when the Dragon Oak Mother Tree crossed the plane barrier and launched an attack on the material plane, perhaps less than one percent of the power actually used in the attack was used to fight against the plane barrier. .

As the native god of Faerûn, Ms. Strategy has a relatively close connection with this land, and the situation is relatively better. Those foreign gods may have raised their kingdom to the multiverse or even the nine hells or the bottomless abyss.

That is not an ordinary trouble, it is not something they think about or not, but something they can do. They not only have to break through the protection of the barrier of the Faerun plane, but also get rid of the imprisonment suction of the Nine Hells and the Bottomless Abyss.

This must involve a series of sacrifices, special magic rituals, etc. Many heroic legends begin with preventing an evil god Zhuan from coming to Faerûn, or the five-headed dragon queen Tiamat, or It's Rose, the Spider Queen.

In the end, it even involves fighting against gods, and it ends with the heroes preventing their arrival or killing these evil gods.

What they stopped and killed was not the evil gods themselves, but their divine incarnations.

Not to mention the arrival of the gods themselves is even more troublesome. For their own safety, they will not leave their own kingdom easily, especially those evil gods. They know very well how many pairs of eyes are staring at them in this world and want to They can't wait to kill them, not only the righteous gods, but also many evil gods who are more active than those who claim to be righteous, in order to seize the priesthood in their hands.

…

"I didn't expect that this little guy would break the game in this way. Before he even touched the edge of legend, he had already started dabbling in the legendary path of demigods. Could it be that he wanted to take the path of becoming a god? Is it possible for a mortal to become a god? It is not an easy road to walk, and many talents have fallen on this road and been destroyed by the conspiracies of the gods. "

"Your Majesty, times are changing. Since the arrival of the gods last year, the laws of belief about the gods have essentially changed. Although the gods have remained silent on this matter, their various behaviors have obviously restrained themselves a lot and they dare not be wanton anymore. The emphasis on faith has been greatly increased. Many churches are actively preaching, and even changed from collecting donations to giving. This shows that man is no longer a lamb raised by the gods. He may really be able to borrow money from others. Take this opportunity to embark on a new path.”

"Times may have changed, but those in the sky have not changed. They can promote mortals, but they will never allow mortals to become gods on their own, because there are only so many priesthoods. If one more person is divided, their power will be weaker. If a mortal succeeds in becoming a god, it will attract countless imitators, and they will not set this precedent easily."

"It doesn't matter to us whether he chose a difficult path. What matters is what we can gain from the path he chose. His value is much greater than we expected. How is His Majesty prepared? Deal with it? Do you want to go down and see him now?”

"Although they may have discovered us, we must not show up on our own initiative. Just pretend that we don't know about this matter. The formal meeting will still proceed as originally planned. It doesn't matter what we think now. The important thing is that this What did the young general think?"

"Then let's go back to Susar first, and leave the rest to Her Highness. She will make the most correct choice in this matter."

"This will be her court minister and her marshal general. It is most suitable for her to promote it. Let us see how far she has grown!"

"Isn't that what we're doing now?"

Just above Gavin and the others, hundreds of meters in the sky, two people stood on the clouds. One of them had a strong back and a handsome face. Even in middle age, he could still charm thousands of girls with thick eyebrows. Just like the Crown Princess and the Iron Princess, the kingly aura exuding from her whole body does not need a crown on her head to express it.

The other man has a white beard and white hair, a kind face, and the Archmage robe he wears is gorgeous but not tacky. If he didn't stand high in the sky out of thin air, he would have thought he was an ordinary old man.

These two people are none other than King Asan and the Palace Archmage Vongeldahast, who were previously missing, the pillars of the Kingdom of Cormyr. They don’t know how long they have been watching the battle here, or in other words, they have been watching from the side from beginning to end.

Although they did not set up this game, it does not mean that they are not aware of it at all. They are just taking the opportunity to play a bigger game.

If there is no bait, how can those pests that have infiltrated the Kingdom of Cormier show up on their own, and how can they be rooted out by following the vines?

Under the feet of the two men, there was a man lying, the last of the three hunting lords who had besieged Gavin before, but now he was no longer a giant werewolf, but a middle-aged man with a pale face.

After being silently captured by King Yasang and the court wizard, the middle-aged man completely understood that the conspiracy they thought was foolproof could not escape the control of the other party at all. They were the prey in the trap, and his herd and his family were all gone.

He knew King Yasan's methods too well. The moment he revealed his true identity, the great purge against their family had already begun. Even if the Secret Hunting Cult was not uprooted this time, it would be seriously injured. In the short term, they would not be able to make any moves in the Kingdom of Cormier. Some of them even had to withdraw from the Kingdom of Cormier for temporary shelter. However, once they withdrew, they would lose their greatest advantage - the noble status of the Kingdom of Cormier, and become ordinary church beasts of Malar.

King Yasan and the court wizard never paid too much attention to him from beginning to end. They captured him, used magic to remove the transformation, and then left him here.

They were more interested in the young general below who could break through the blockade of Malar's Kingdom projection, invite the Goddess of Strategy to possess the incarnation, and plunder the blue bear totem spirit of the God of Hunting.

Malar's Kingdom projection actually has several ways to crack it.

The simplest one is to survive 24 hours, the supreme hunting time set by Malar himself, and the Kingdom projection will automatically collapse. Restricted by the ritual, the plundering bear has no way to step out of the sacrificial circle to hunt.

According to their estimation of the strength of the Crown Princess and Gavin, it was not difficult for them to do this.

But who would have thought that Gavin would choose the most difficult way to crack it, and he would go to the door himself and slaughter the totem spirit incarnation that Mala used as the anchor point of the projection of the Kingdom of God. Even with the help of the power of Ms. Strategy, King Yasan and the Court Mage were still shocked.

Looking at Gavin, it was like looking at a rare treasure.

It is easy to get thousands of troops, but it is difficult to get a general.

Such a promising young man is rare wherever he goes. As long as he is included in the Kingdom of Cormier, there is no need to tilt resources. It won't take long for him to grow into the fourth person in the Kingdom of Cormier and become the pioneer in expanding the territory and influence of the Kingdom of Cormier.

It's just that these two cunning old foxes are calculating loudly. Even if they are eager in their hearts, they will not show it easily, but appear more indifferent.

They desperately push Gavin towards the direction of the Crown Princess to establish a closer and deeper relationship.

A country must not walk on one leg.

If there is only one top-level expert, it is easy to lose sight of one thing while focusing on the other.

Two legs are necessary, and it would be even better if there are three or four legs to support it.

Sooner or later, they will have to abdicate and let the Crown Princess be the future of the Kingdom of Cormier, and they must pave the way for her to take power in the future.

In fact, court ministers and marshals are not the most ideal choices.

Marriage is the most ideal. With common interests, it is easier for the two to work together.

But it is too early for this matter.

Gavin is now like the newly deified Lady of Strategy. He has just begun to shine and prove that he is a potential stock. If he wants to prove that he is genuine, he needs to show more great achievements.

King Yasang and the court wizard are both experienced people. They have seen countless young people with amazing talents. Most of them shine brilliantly for a moment and then disappear again in the crowd. They don't want Gavin to become one of them.

After confirming that Gavin's plunder was coming to an end and Malar could not make any more waves, King Yasang and the court wizard disappeared with the hunting lord silently, just like when they came.

Catherine obviously felt something, and after a casual glance, she said to the Crown Princess: "The matter here is over, Your Highness, please allow me to leave first."

"I haven't thanked the lady for her help yet." Tainalasta bowed and thanked her, "Madam, don't you wait for General Gavin to wake up?"

"No, he can understand." Catherine's main focus now is on building the City of Faith. Assisting in construction is one aspect, and the main thing is to learn from him.

She found that Gavin's ability in this aspect is absolutely genius-level. Many spells that were originally designed for combat can become auxiliary tools for construction in his hands, which not only greatly increases the speed of construction, but also improves the quality of construction.

At first, they only used ready-made spells, and later they made various improvements directly according to needs to make their effects more extreme and more convenient for urban construction.

All that was missing was to develop the house-building technique, wall-building technique, and bridge-building technique, and build houses and walls in batches.

Based on her understanding of Gavin, this would not be impossible in the future.

Catherine still had a strategic battle fortress that needed to be repaired and renovated. When she returned, she could copy the experience of the City of Faith.

If it weren't for Gavin's request for help, she would not want to leave the City of Faith for a moment, because the construction speed there was too fast. The few hours she was away were enough for several houses to be built there and dozens of meters of walls to be repaired.

At this point, the Crown Princess naturally had no way to force it, and made a gesture of invitation, saying: "Then please go ahead, ma'am."

Catherine nodded again and directly used the teleportation spell to leave.

The projection of the Mala Kingdom had collapsed, the fog that shrouded this place dissipated, and the ban on the caster was gone. The Crown Princess regained her ability to cast spells. The Royal Guards and Gavin's personal guards who were isolated outside all rushed over after hearing the news. Unless Mala could send down another divine incarnation, no one could pose a threat to them.
