583 The position of the three ancestors (more to come)
On the holy mountain of Harogath, the three ancestors surrounding Craig are a little depressed now.
It's not because of Bulkesso's previous contempt for them, nor is it because Warusk is like a salted fish now.
It's just because they are being watched by other ancestor spirits.
Although it seemed from a distance that they were protecting Craig behind them, they were actually facing the onlookers of other ancestors.
There is no doubt in the eyes of other ancestors, but they have another emotion, which is called questioning!
"I've always been a little curious, that is, who among the three ancestors has the final say? Sometimes I think it's Tarik, and sometimes I think it's Kerik."
Kor looked at the three ancestors with a crooked mouth, and the Wrath of the Hidden Peak in his hand tapped his palm.
This posture looks like a fight will start at any time.
Cole was the first to attack. He was one of the ancestors with the most clear-cut stance on the Holy Mountain, and his stance was to believe in Bul-Katho.
In his life, Bulcasso has never betrayed the trust of others, not even once!
"Why don't you think it's Madoc who's gone?"
Kotur asked as he stood next to Koor with his arms folded.
He was also a little curious about who among the three ancestors was in charge.
But in his heart, he thought it was more likely that Madoc would make the decision.
Kortur was born earlier than Kor, but he did not see the era when Volusk was the Immortal King.
He is a barbarian born after Orak, so Kotur is simply curious about this issue.
"Because Madoc left first. If that bastard had such an important mission, do you think he would make that kind of self-destructive sacrifice?"
Kol tilted his head and looked at Koltur beside him.
Their names are somewhat similar, but their personalities are quite different.
Kotur is a bit taciturn most of the time, or dull.
Anyway, this guy feels quite slow.
Cole is a little more flexible. After all, he is a barbarian who has experienced the establishment of the Holy Mountain of Harrogath.
I have communicated with other nephalems more than once. The kind of communication about the status of barbarians requires discussion with those mages.
Although Cole didn't like that kind of diplomatic rhetoric, he still understood it.
"The existence of the Battle Prophet should not be that simple for the three ancestors. At least now it seems that Kahn, who has taken over Maddock's position, has not changed at all.
If it doesn’t count that he can show his strength when he was alive.”
Kotur rarely said a lot of words.
Many of them were dissatisfied with Kahn.
Maybe after getting used to Madoc's existence, it would be a little difficult for him to accept that this guy has disappeared.
"There is no need to discuss the strength or weakness between Kahn and Madoc. The question now is who has the final say among the three ancestors?
I don't believe that the three ancestors have completely different views.
No matter how fiercely these three guys quarreled, they never had any disagreements, and they even acted in unison."
Cole's eyes were a bit evil.
This problem has existed for a long time, but the existence of the three ancestors before has only shown a beneficial side.
The difficulties that barbarians encountered before were not as difficult to make choices as they are now.
I heard that there is a druid named Fandral Staghelm who is very good at making decisions?
That guy's way of making a decision was very simple, "I want them all."
"Madoc always makes the final decision among us, I just mediate."
Tarik's expression was not very good, and this question hurt him somewhat.
But what stabbed him was not the leadership, but the truth about the three ancestors that had never been mentioned before.
"What about Kolik? Is it just to be a compliment, to pave the way for your disputes, so that the performance can be more natural?"
Olongus shook his head and said.
Although he and Cole have slightly different opinions, they are the same on the matter of caring about the three ancestors.
The existence of the three ancestors has always been a problem for these guys.
"Kelik is the limit. Or..."
"It's insurance!"
Talik and Kolik sang this answer in unison, while Kahn on the side looked a little embarrassed.
Counting the three ancestors, there are only five candidates.
But Kahn has been a substitute for a little too long, and it is not suitable for him to interrupt when talking about some previous things.
"Insurance? Insurance that the decisions Maddock makes will not lead to irreversible consequences?
Or do you mean to ensure that the position of the three ancestors will never change?"
Hailab said with some contempt.
Perhaps in front of those slightly younger dead people, the problems of the three ancestors have no clue.
But this is still somewhat understandable to Hailab.
At least some speculation still exists.
"position?"
Koutul opened his arms and directly pressed Helab's shoulders. He had a posture of "I won't let you go until you explain clearly."
"To use a simple analogy, our ancestors were born in different eras, so naturally the objects of our belief are also different.
For example, those of you who share the same hardships with Bulkesso will naturally trust Bulkesso more than Warusk.
Because you have gotten along and fought together!
For me, Warusk is a trustworthy guy.
So do you understand?"
Hailab rubbed his nose, his expression a little unnatural.
It seemed like he was a little embarrassed by "trusting Warusk".
After all, Volusk is already a salted fish now.
"Who do the three ancestors trust? They are friends with Bulcasso and have fought with him. I don't think those guys would trust anyone other than Bulcasso."
Olongus interrupted again, and at some point he had picked up a huge stone and weighed it.
That look was not much different from the way Cole planned to take action before.
"You are right, we trust Bulkesso.
But compared to this Bulcaisso that we are all familiar with, we must obey the will of another Bulcaisso."
When Talik said this, he raised his head and glanced at the ancestors around him.
It's like you can tell what these guys think about this matter through everyone's eyes.
Barbarians are never good at hiding their emotions. If they are expressionless, it can only be said that they have become numb to what they are seeing.
It was like these soldiers saw someone die.
They have long been used to it.
"Does that mean the first generation ancestors are always here?"
Cole's eyes became more dangerous, and even the anger rushed out of his body.
This guy is the kind of person who understands best.
For example, his current emotion is dissatisfaction and anger.
"It's everywhere, and it could be said that it never exists."
Kolik made a supplementary explanation. At this time, he was really no different from what he was praised for.
"What!? Has the first generation ancestor become the all-god of monks? Can he give me power when I call his name?"
Cassius lay on the floor and roared impatiently.
The injury left by Volusk has not healed yet, and now he is able to speak thanks to the power accumulated in the holy mountain of Harrogas.
"When did you have the illusion that the first generation ancestors did not give you or us power?
Don't say you think you can gain power by just being angry!
Such power comes so easily. Every barbarian has been able to use rage since the beginning of time. Does this make you take this decision for granted?
There is no power that comes without a price!
Cassius, the reason why you have never participated in decision-making is definitely because you don’t like to use your brain!”
Tarik was also a little angry at this time.
Cassius has a remarkable talent for irritating people.
If this guy were a demon, he would definitely be able to greatly boost the barbarian's combat effectiveness.
"The reason I don't participate in decision-making is because I'm better at fighting, and the things I can get through fighting don't require me to use my brain.
If I have that time, I might as well think of two more lethal curse words.
What? Aren’t you all good at making decisions? Why are you all dead?
Don't tell me you decided to die!
If you ask me, the performance of the three of you in the offensive and defensive battle on the Holy Mountain of Arreat is no different from mine."
It's not very exciting trash talk, but it is quite lethal to the three ancestors.
"Yes, Madoc made his decision, and my insurance did not stop him."
Korik said in a low voice.
During the attack and defense of the Holy Mountain of Arreat, the three ancestors certainly knew that they could more effectively kill the demon army by gathering together.
It's just that they really decided to die.
It's never a good idea to be caught between two Bulkesso.
"I'm happy with this ending, but none of us thought that after becoming the spirit of the ancestors, we would have to be the third ancestor! It's really fucked!"
Korik slapped himself on the forehead and made a loud sound.
It can be heard that his hairline is a bit far back, otherwise the movement would not be so clean and crisp.
The answer brought a long silence.
…
"The reason why you didn't stop Madoc couldn't be that Lady Joy? Or were you really enjoying it at the time?"
Cassius said with a frightened expression on his face.
No one expected that the first voice that appeared after a long silence would actually say this.
Korik blushed instantly.
"I redeemed a fallen soul!"
When Kolik said this, his whole body was trembling, and he couldn't tell whether he was angry or ashamed.
"I understand, the way to a woman's heart passes through something. I have seen this from the book Luke brought." ①
Cassius looked like he was just waking up from a big dream. Who knows if he did it on purpose or not.
Korik's face turned green.
"Cassius, stop talking when you're lying on the ground! If you don't want this stone to be used as a tombstone covering your face!"
Olongus couldn't stand it anymore and tried to silence Cassius with threats.
This group of real "dead ghosts" are a bit unruly when not fighting.
"go on!"
Olongus roared forcefully, trying to get the distorted topic back on track.
"Yes! Keep talking, I want to hear the part of your process of redeeming a fallen soul!"
Cassius was lying on the ground, his body twisting and turning, and he roared relentlessly.
The next moment, the huge stone hit him directly! The rubble was piled on top of him, just like a grave bag.
The color of Kolik's face can no longer be seen, but the facial features are all squeezed together.
Ever since what he did back then was broadcast live by the Hammer of the Ancestors that Bulqessor had condensed at that time, he felt that he had died socially.
"Oh my! Cassius's IQ is just perfect for stupidity! I can't tell whether he is deliberately cheating or if he is really stupid!" Hailabu also put his hand on his forehead: "Let's get to the point! You choose
To die? Then what!?”
The corners of Tarik's mouth twitched, and he didn't know for a moment whether he should continue speaking.
These "dead ghosts" are quite reliable when fighting. Without fighting and imminent crisis, each one of them can drive people crazy.
Maybe having a demon tied up in the middle at this time would help them have a more serious conversation.
"Then we lived again! As you can see, we are still the three ancestors."
Talik hesitated for a moment before continuing.
This answer is very poor and does not contain any part of what the ancestors wanted to hear.
Including Cassius, who would stretch out a hand with his middle finger raised from the pile of stones.
"The original Bulcaisel used us to convey some of his 'opinions', and we did it."
"Don't say it so tactfully! Aren't you just forcing you to do some fucking things? There's nothing you can't say!
I just said that Mardoc doesn't seem to be such a fragile guy. He survived the explosion on the Holy Mountain of Arreat. Is it normal to choose to self-destruct at this time?
You are all stubborn!"
Cole was furious!
Among the ancestors present, he was perhaps the most hostile to the first generation ancestors.
After all, Cole did not experience the era of the first generation of ancestors, but instead established the current Holy Mountain of Harrogath with Bulcaisu while he was still alive.
He lacks respect for his first generation ancestors.
"I don't believe you would have any objections to the actions of the first ancestors from the beginning, otherwise you wouldn't happily abandon your family and become the gatekeeper.
Tell me, when exactly did it happen?"
Hailabu tugged on his beard and continued to ask.
At this time, he really showed something, worthy of his status as the oldest ancestor besides Volusk.
"Before the Battle of Arreat begins."
Kolik finally calmed down his excitement and spoke.
It's just that when he talked about this topic, his face didn't look any better than before.
They're all pretty ugly.
"The first ancestors asked us to abandon the Holy Mountain of Arreat."
Tarik was making supplements, and at this time, the other "dead ghosts" almost had a picture in their minds.
Mardoc left the gate of the Holy Mountain directly when the order was halfway through, leading to the defeat of the three ancestors.
Facing an army of demons that didn't even have the Demon King of Hell, they could have easily fought their way out of the encirclement, but they didn't.
"Then what!?"
"Then, I followed."
Korik continued with a wry smile on his face.
"Then what!!?"
"And then? Then I met Lady Joy."
Kolik's face became unsightly.
"Yes! That's it! Go on!"
"Cassius! Shut up!"
In an instant, several feet stepped heavily on the "grave bag".
The scene was a bit chaotic, and it was hard to tell who was extending their feet.
