Chapter 671: 671

Abel had already come across many orcs before he even made his way forward for a few miles . All of those orcs had the power of a head wolf rider captain, at least .

There were Tauren, Were cat, lion man, and bear man . Those were some of the most powerful races of the orc empire; however, the powerful foxes were nowhere to be seen .

Suddenly, Abel realized something . There was not a single priest . All the orcs were fighters . Were only front line fighters allowed to the orc god ceremony?

Abel didn’t know why, but he was still very confident in his abilities .

None of the orcs talked to each other as they made their way towards Nam mountain .

Abel felt a little confused . He thought the ceremony would take place 10 days later, so why were there so many orcs already?

However, there was no one he could ask . The only thing he could do was to run along with the orcs .

When they were 10 miles from Nam Mountain, a grand looking structure emerged . It was an orc god temple . It was the largest temple he had ever seen since he entered the orc empire .

People always thought the orcs were not good at architecture in the human world since all of their buildings were made for practical use . Even their royal palace was simple .

However, Abel began to question this perspective . The orc god temple in front of him was made entirely out of giant stones . It had a main temple, 6 sub-temples, and some other structures by the side .

If this orc god temple was surrounded by walls, it would be a city .

Every stone of the temple was etched with the orc god’s legends, which added an extra layer of mystery .

The tip of the main temple was made with stones as well . It was shimmering in the sunlight, and it attracted Abel’s gaze . Gems! There were countless gems stuck to the tip of the temple .

Those gems engulfed the temple in colorful rays . Most of which were green colored gems . Those green gems had formed the mainline while the other gems were scattered around the sides .

Since the priests couldn’t use the plentiful gems in the orc empire, these treasures in the human world had only become the orcs’ decoration for their temple .

Abel realized most of those gems were intermediate level . Just the tip of this temple was enough to move the hearts of any human he had ever known .

There was a platform of a few hundred stairs connecting the ground to the main temple . Each flight of stairs was shimmering in sunlight after countless years of buffering and friction .

One could tell thousands of orcs had visited .

There were already around 100 orcs in the square of the main temple . Almost every single one of those orcs had a little tent, as they covered the entire square .

Although 100 orcs were gathering in one spot, it wasn’t that loud . Most of them looked as though they were deliberately speaking softly .

This was rare to see, considering how natural loud spoken orcs were .

There were 10 orcs who arrived at the same time as Abel . They jumped down from their mounts and strapped their mounts on a horse pole in front of the temple . They then took out some water from their mount and began to wash their hands and face in great detail .

Abel truly felt the power of god . Orcs rarely cared about the way they look, and most of them would hate to let water dampen their fur . Normally, they would use a towel to rub themselves .

Abel began to look around the orcs carefully . He realized all the so-called details he had been told were totally useless .

Still, he was quite lucky to run into a group of orcs on his way here, so all he needed to do was to copy them . He wouldn’t make a major mistake if he did that .

After they washed, they began to head towards the stairs . They took off their shoes and strapped it on their waists as they took their first step on to the stairs .

Abel also did the same and followed behind them . He realized the orcs were walking extremely slow . They would pause for a few seconds with every step .

At first, he had no idea what they were doing, but everything suddenly made sense when he took the first step .

When we took his second step up the stairs, he felt a wave of death qi rushing upward . This wave of death qi was different from the ones he had encountered before . It was as it was impacting the soul .

However, this impact was basically nothing to Abel . His soul was so powerful; it was miles above any normal wizards . He didn’t deliberately try to copy the orcs since he could just directly run to the top .

Excitement emerged on the face of those orcs when they finally reached the top of those 100 stairs .

Abel also finally realized the purpose of these stairs . It was not used to attack the soul of a person but to assist them . It allowed them to cleanse their soul during the process and, in some ways, strengthen it .

This effect was not too strong, and Abel speculated it would get even weaker as you climbed these stairs more and more .

It was unfortunate that Abel’s soul was already too powerful . It had basically done nothing to him . But still, this was the work of a priest .

The priests’ knowledge of the soul was far greater than any wizards . If their research on the soul had reached an elite level, wizards would only be beginners .

What was the benefit of strengthening a soul?

After a soul had been strengthened, a person’s training and leveling up speed would increase–especially when it came to training .

That was a pity, Abel thought to himself . If the priests had etched the formula for this death qi wave onto the stairs, maybe Abel would be able to learn how to make a magic circle out of it . Although these support circles might not do much to him, it could be very good for his family’s knights and wizards .

Of course, it might be useless to other wizards since it was made of death qi, but Abel could control death qi himself .

On the top of the stairs were some black-cloaked priests . One said with a low voice,” take out your identity card and register one by one!”

The orcs each took out their bone made identity card and handed it to the priest for examination . Some other priests also examined the orcs in detail . Not a single word was spoken in the entire process .

There were extreme details on the bone made identity card . Although it seemed normal, Abel knew a person with a powerful power of the will could also see a card owner’s photo by examining it .

Soon, it was Abel’s turn . He handed his bone made identity car to the black cloak priests for examination .

“Another worgen from the wolves? Didn’t your group already arrive?” The black-cloaked priest asked suddenly .

Abel felt his heat drop, but he still kept his cool, “I got a late notice, so I did not go with the others!”

“Ah . All the wolves’ tents are on the right of the square . You can go find them after you are done with signing up!” The black-cloaked priest nodded his head under the hood and said gently .

However, it was because of this little nod, Abel saw a dried up wolf face under that dark hood . This priest was a worgen as well .

Abel felt his heart lift again . He thought he did something wrong, but it was just a worgen priest showing his care for his fellow worgen .

“Thank you, Sir Priest!” Abel replied .

The identity card examination went smoothly . Afterward, that black-cloaked priest led Abel and the 10 other orcs into the main temple .
