Sword and Sorcery and Martial Arts

Chapter 502 Follow-up
After seeing the merchant ships full of residents of Strom City slowly leaving the pier, Rhodes set off again to the dark cave at the bottom of the river where the murlocs lived.

Something happened over there.

Even if Rhodes didn't inject his spiritual power into the stone pillar of the altar, he could still hear the inner voice of those murlocs.

And now, they are preparing to elect members of parliament in a very bloody and violent way.

This is a bit different from what Rhodes thought before. What he thought before was that these murlocs would elect members of the parliament through voting.

As a result, they planned to have all the murlocs preparing to participate in a melee fight in the arena, and the eleven murlocs who survived became members of the council...

Of course, Rhodes couldn't approve of this election method. Originally, only two or three hundred of those murlocs survived, and now they carried out this kind of activity, and the last surviving murlocs couldn't provide him with much power of faith.

If you rush over now, you should still have time.

This made Rhodes start to wonder whether the fact that the patriarch of this group of murlocs became evil gods had a lot to do with them.

If a demigod's believers are very brutal and murderous, even if that demigod was very kind before, it won't be long before it becomes similar to its believers.

So good teachings are very important, at least the teachings cannot be too far from the character of the demigod itself.

It didn't take long for Rhodes to come to the cave again. He took out a silver necklace inlaid with obsidian from the space ring and put it on his neck.

The magic effect attached to this necklace is to allow the wearer and the equipment on his body to blend into the surrounding environment. Even a relatively powerful mage can hardly detect it with spiritual detection.

Therefore, when appraising equipment, Alvin has been recommending this necklace to Rhodes.

After activating the magic attached to the necklace, Rhodes swam towards the cave below, and he didn't stop until he reached the top of the murloc city's arena.

The battle below has not yet started, but it has entered the final stage of preparation. The murlocs in the arena are carefully checking the weapons in their hands.

Now it is urgent to think of a way to educate these murlocs.

Rhodes circulated the energy in his body, lighting up a soft golden light around his body that could calm the soul.

The murlocs in the arena raised their heads involuntarily, looking at Rhodes floating above.

"Look! God has personally come to testify to us." Rhodes heard some murlocs communicating with each other.

"Stop unnecessary fighting!" Rhodes made his own voice after connecting with these murlocs with mental power.

"Your patriarch led you down a wrong path. Many things do not need to be decided by force."

The choice of council members has nothing to do with force. What these murlocs need is someone with a brain who can make the right decisions to lead them.

Moreover, Rhodes tends to choose weak murlocs to lead them. If tough and warlike murlocs are allowed to lead these murlocs, they will definitely clash with the humans living nearby, and maybe even lead them. The other murlocs overthrew Rhodes' stolen divine right.

Although there is no difference between Rhodes doing this and enslaving them, Rhodes has no psychological burden at all.

They are originally alien races, and they are also intelligent races that can threaten the dominance of human beings.

Anyway, according to the evolutionary history of the earth, all other races that could threaten the status of Homo sapiens were either completely killed by ancient Homo sapiens, or were killed to only a small part, and the remaining small part slowly died. integrated into Homo sapiens.

Those races that are integrated into Homo sapiens are usually not reproductively isolated from Homo sapiens, and are not killed after the defeat, and are generally females with little combat effectiveness.

If he didn't want to try to collect the power of faith, Rhodes would definitely kill all the murlocs here.

What should I do next?

It would be great if Michel was here, just copy the teachings of their knight order and brainwash these murlocs.

This time, Rhodes really thought too simply. Although the Sea Clan has been passed down for countless years, they are still in a very primitive slavery society.

It is estimated that they simply cannot understand what is democracy and what is voting.

Rhodes suddenly thought of a way.

He decided to let something attack here, and then he reappeared, repelled the monster, and tricked all these murlocs into the prepared ambush on the land, and let the army of the territory capture them and send them to the mine mining.

And he would be their only hope, their savior in their hard days.

Just show up once in a while to give them a little hope that their god will surely help them escape and live a good life.

Rhodes felt that this approach should be okay, not only did he not have to worry about them causing trouble one day, but also the Power of Faith he gained every day would definitely be purer than it is now.

If they live very hard every day, the faith in their hearts will definitely be much firmer than it is now. After all, the hope imagined at this time is their only hope and the motivation for them to persist in living.

"Stop, all of you, your weapons shouldn't be pointed at your own kind." Rhodes let the murlocs hear his voice again through his mental power.

"In the not-too-distant future, you will have a tribulation. If you can survive this tribulation, your group will become the ruler of this world.

I will do my best to help you through this ordeal. After Rhodes finished speaking, he extinguished the light on his body, and used the magic of the necklace to blend into the surrounding environment.

The murlocs below put away their weapons and fell into a state of confusion.

After Rhodes heard that they had no intention of continuing to kill each other, he turned and left the burrow.

After leaving the river, he performed lightness kung fu and rushed towards his own territory.

On the way, he not only thought about the detailed script, but also the cast members.

Let the buffalo raised in the castle be the monster that attacks the murloc cave.

Although its strength is not very strong, it is definitely no problem to bluff these murlocs.

That bison can not only make its body very huge, but also exude a demigod aura from its body. In addition, Alvin and the others help it create a little movement. It is estimated that well-informed adventurers will be frightened by it. .

In the past, that buffalo had gained a lot of human believers by itself, and established a small force. It would definitely be no problem to act as a villain.

A few hours later, Rhodes returned to the castle.

His speed was much faster than those merchant ships, that is to say, Misel who was on the merchant ship was still on the way.

Thinking of this, he walked to the stable, ready to see the actors he had booked.
