Farming with Entries: From Lord to Emperor Chapter 426 - 237: Exposed3

A few bonfires crackled, the firelight casting reflections on the rock walls, outlining the traces of lizardn’s tails as they patrolled.

The passing lizardn failed to notice, a slender and ghostly figure sliding through the shadows, silently ascending the watchtower.

It was Vivian.

Pfft—

A soft sound, like ink, as the embroidery needle pierced a lizardman’s neck, Vivian forcefully covering the lizardman’s mouth to suppress its dying screech.

Until there was no sound, Vivian held her breath and gently laid the body on the railing.

Huff—

With a flushed face, Vivian exhaled deeply, her figure once again rging into the darkness.

The assassination was not difficult, but catching the lizardman’s massive body was.

On the other side of the watchtower, the lynxman Vika gently lowered the lizardman’s corpse.

Below, patrolling lizardn moved with heavy steps, wandering around the camp, completely unaware of the happenings atop the watchtower.

Vika picked up a torch and swiftly waved it twice in the air.

In the darkness outside the camp, this action was exceptionally conspicuous.

In the next mont, hundreds of figures filled with killing intent surged towards the camp under the cover of darkness.

anwhile, Vivian’s figure reappeared, now at the lizardman camp gate, behind the guards.

Pfft—

The clean and swift sound of flesh being pierced rang out, a lizardman guard fell stiffly to the ground!

"You..."

"Whizz!"

Before another guard could speak, an arrow from the hand crossbow pierced through its throat!

As Luo De’s close servant, frequent bedmate, and biting lover, all of Vivian’s crossbow arrows were personally forged by Luo De using Sea Pattern Magic Steel!

Ordinary shields could not withstand them, let alone the lizardman’s Scale Armor.

The lizardman guard, face full of shock, held its neck and collapsed against the fence!

Vivian hesitated not at all, raising the embroidery needle and slicing through the bolt on the gate!

At that mont, the successive noises finally drew the attention of the patrolling squad, who loudly roared at Vivian,

"Enemy attack!"

Also at that mont, sharp sounds of air splitting occurred in succession, countless arrows like torrential rain falling from the sky!

Instantly, screams, roars, and the sounds of warning horns intertwined!

The lizardman camp erupted completely!

...

...

Lizardman camp, inside the cave on the hillside.

A roughly constructed altar built from stones lay in the center, twisted runes painted with blood on the stones, flickering with eerie ghostly light under the torches.

A circle of beast bones surrounded the altar, wolf skulls, bear skulls, even human skulls forming a ring, hollow eye sockets fixating on the darkness.

Sharp bone spears linked between skulls, dried flesh and skin hanging and emitting a moldy stench.

In the center of the altar, a recessed stone tray filled with dark red liquid, floating clots of coagulated blood on the surface.

Surprisingly, no scent of blood emanates from within.

The Great Shaman sat before the altar, eyes closed, his emaciated face full of severity.

"Not good, Great Shaman!"

A lizardman guard stumbled into the cave, shouting loudly, causing the blood within the altar to ripple violently.

A thick, stinky sll instantly overflowed.

The Great Shaman slowly opened his eyes,

"If you are not here on official business, you will die here today."

The lizardman guard, frightened by the Great Shaman, trembled, the bone knife shaking in his hand, nearly dropping,

"Humans, humans broke into the camp!"

The Great Shaman’s pupils suddenly contracted, "What?"

The Great Shaman lost his usual composure, his voice shrill, filled with disbelief and furious anger,

"Were they not led to the empty village?"

"I... I don’t know!"

The lizardman guard stamred, "They just directly attacked, and our people are being slaughtered!"

"You, you should leave quickly!"

"Incompetent!"

The Great Shaman roared furiously, swinging his staff fiercely, smashing it against the guard’s head!

Despite his frail appearance, the Great Shaman’s strength was imnse, instantly knocking the guard to the ground!

Yet the guard dared not retaliate, looking at the Great Shaman with fear in his eyes.

The Great Shaman imdiately raised his staff, intending to stab the guard’s chest, but hesitated when lifting.

"Go, bring another tribesman in to protect !"

"Alright, okay!"

The guard imdiately ran out of the cave,

"Soone, soone protect the Great Shaman!"

As the guard’s voice fell, two lizardn quickly rushed in!

"Great Shaman, where do we go?!"

The reporting guard anxiously inquired, and the Great Shaman pointed his staff at the guard,

"You two kill him, he’s a traitor!"

As soon as the Great Shaman’s words fell, the two incoming lizardn hesitated montarily, then swiftly raised bone knives to stab into the guard’s chest!

"I, I..."

The guard hardly understood what happened, falling to the ground with a face full of doubt.

The Great Shaman disregarded him, quickly dragging the corpses to the altar, letting their blood flow into the center stone tray!

"Not enough! Not enough!"

The Great Shaman’s roar echoed in the cave, his eyes afla with madness.

He hurriedly lunged at the other two corpses, dragging them all to the altar’s center for bloodletting.

"More! I need more!"

The Great Shaman’s voice was almost a howl, "The blood sacrifice needs more lives!"

However, there were no more figures inside the cave.

The Great Shaman’s Adam’s apple bobbed, looking at his own wrist,

"With a divine body, this broken body is of no use anymore!"

The Great Shaman murmured, picking up the bone blade to slash his wrist, letting the blood drip into the altar’s center.
