Chapter 54 - Food!


Chapter 54: Food!

Because of its huge size, the awakened Ba-Serpent needed to eat a large number of living creatures. The Ba-Serpent clan had worshiped it for a thousand years, so they naturally knew the habits of the Ba-Serpent.

Moreover, every Patriarch of the Ba Serpent Clan could communicate with the Ba-Serpent and understand the simple meaning of the Ba-Serpent. Usually, when the patriarch conveyed his meaning to the Ba-Serpent, it could understand it.

What the patriarch meant was that there were many delicacies in a place where the sun rose, that could let him eat his fill!

...

The Ba-Serpent had been sleeping for many years. After waking up, its desire for food surpassed everything. When it heard that there was delicious food to enjoy, it twisted its head and looked towards the Imperial City of the Northern Kingdom.

That place was a little far!

Even though the Ba-Serpent’s body was huge, it was still a little dissatisfied. It was very hungry, so it turned its head around to look for food.

In its memory, the food would usually be placed on an altar when it woke up. Groups of living creatures would be sent over for it to eat to its heart’s content.

This time, it was very hungry, but it was unwilling to go so far.

Therefore, the Ba Serpent twisted its body and arrived at the altar a hundred miles away in just a moment. In the past, this place was used to place the food for the Ba Serpent.

Those foods were actually living humans!

They were all slaves that the Ba-Serpent Clan had obtained from the vassal countries and some war captives. To them, these people were easier to deal with than any cattle or horses.

There were at least a million people in a city, and the sacred artifact liked this smell. Therefore, the members of the Ba-Serpent Clan plundered everywhere and captured other cities, turning everyone into slaves of the Ba-Serpent Clan.

However, the Ba-Serpent also had a habit. When it ate enough, it would fall into a deep sleep every once in a while. At this time, there was no protection from the Ba-Serpent.

The Ba-Serpent Clan would be much more obedient. They would take out the treasures they had plundered and enjoy them. When the Ba-Serpent was sleeping, they would choose to hide in the city and guard it.

However, when the Ba-Serpent woke up and needed food, they would use the evil of the Ba-Serpent to fight everywhere and turn some rich countries or territories that they had their eyes on into their vassals.

This time, before the Ba-Serpent woke up, the Ba-Serpent clan had already targeted the Imperial City of the Northern Kingdom.

Their envoy had been negotiating with the Northern Kingdom. They said that the royal family of the Northern Kingdom would move out of the Imperial City and offer the Imperial City for the Ba-Serpent to live in. Moreover, they would sacrifice a million people every year for the Ba-Serpent to eat.

Actually, they were stalling for time. They were waiting for the Ba-Serpent to wake up.

If they couldn’t come to an agreement, they would directly take out the Ba Serpent and cause the entire Imperial City to flow with blood. The rich Imperial City of the Northern Kingdom would directly become the possession of the Ba Serpent Clan. They had already annexed countless countries over the past thousand years with the Ba Serpent.

However, the Ba-Serpent was too hungry after it woke up!

It was actually more than ten thousand kilometers from the Ba Serpent Clan to the Northern Kingdom’s Imperial City. Although this distance was nothing to the Ba Serpent, it would take at most half a day.

However, the Ba Serpent was hungry and wanted to eat blood. Furthermore, it only wanted to eat after waking up. When it saw that there was nothing on the altar, the Ba Serpent was furious!

It turned its head and charged towards the Ba-Serpent Clan. In the blink of an eye, a huge hole appeared in the sky.

One could not see the bottom of the hole, nor could they see the end. The sky was dark, and only something blood-red like lightning protruded from the huge hole!

The members of the Ba-Serpent Clan felt like the world was collapsing. A huge suction force that they could not resist made the people on the street unable to stand at all. All of them soared into the sky and were sucked into the black hole!

Countless members of the Ba-Serpent clan were sucked into its stomach and became its delicious food.

The Patriarch of the Ba-Serpent clan panicked when he saw this. If he had known earlier, he would have collected ten thousand servants in the Northern Kingdom and let the sacred artifact fill his stomach first.

He didn’t expect that the ones who would suffer were his own clansmen.

However, the Ba-Serpent worshiped by the Ba-Serpent clan had been like this for thousands of years. Once they were unable to provide the Ba-Serpent with rich food, they would become the Ba-Serpent’s food.

Otherwise, the egos of his clansmen would rapidly expand just by relying on the Ba-Serpent clan’s wanton plundering and destruction over the years.

However, because of the worship of the Ba-Serpent, there were not many true pure clansmen of the Ba-Serpent clan. Most of them were human blood food that the Ba-Serpent clan prepared for the Ba-Serpent at any time.

The patriarch could not stop chanting, praying that the Ba-Serpent could control itself and listen to his communication.

“Almighty Saint King, we have already prepared your food. Furthermore, we have prepared the food for the next ten or hundred years. In the distant east, there is the most tender food. Please stop your appetite and come with me to enjoy a feast!”

The patriarch kept muttering. In its hand was something that looked like a dried bamboo pole. There was a purple gauze tied to the bamboo pole, and it kept swaying in front of the Ba-Serpent.

However, the Ba-Serpent was too big. Even though the Patriarch was holding the bamboo pole in his hand, it was still very small in the eyes of the Ba-Serpent. After it devoured tens of thousands of food, it slowed down when it saw the bamboo pole.

The vortex black hole in the sky slowly closed. Countless people who were clinging to the windows or hiding in the houses barely escaped. The entire Ba-Serpent clansmen who were walking on the streets had been devoured by the Ba-Serpent.

A ray of light finally shone through the originally dark sky. It was the Ba-Serpent following the Patriarch towards the Northern Kingdom.

Because it understood a sentence.

The food for the next year, ten years, and a hundred years were settled. Just now, it was too hungry and could not control itself. After eating countless people, it began to communicate with the patriarch and was willing to go to the Northern Kingdom.

After the Ba-Serpent left, the streets of the entire Ba-Serpent clan’s castle were almost empty. At this moment, these people who had survived the calamity surged onto the streets. They held bamboo poles in their hands and kept hitting them together, dancing and celebrating their survival when the sacred artifact woke up.

As long as they survived this time, they would wait for the Ba-Serpent to occupy a new place. They could occupy that place and enjoy themselves in peace. Then, they would wait for the Ba-Serpent to eat up the people from the vassal country before falling into a deep sleep.

When the Ba-Serpent woke up the next time, they would not be in danger as long as they prepared food for it.

If they did not prepare the food, the one who would become food would be the unlucky one among them.

For thousands of years, the Ba-Serpent clan had always thrived like this.

This time, the one chosen was the Northern Kingdom, and they could all move to the Imperial City of the Northern Kingdom in the end! This was because after the Ba-Serpent devoured the people in the Imperial City, it relied on them to fill the gap. As long as they understood the Ba-Serpent’s rules, they would be able to live very well.
