The Whispering Verses Chapter 272: Sacrifice
Chapter 272 Sacrifice
Blood-red light sprayed from the ground into the night sky, forming a strange red light pillar, illuminating the night in Tobesk. Thick blood mist sprayed in all directions, and in just a few minutes, the entire city was plunged into blood mist.
People fell into a deeper sleep in the sweet blood, the moon was covered, and the stars no longer twinkled. Only the ring warlocks who realized something was wrong for the first time could barely stay awake in the rapidly spreading blood mist. However, the mental pressure of the saint's imminent emergence directly impacted the extremely sensitive senses of the extraordinary beings, and no one could sustain it for too long.
In a rural cemetery in the suburbs, Mr. Copps stood in the darkness at the door of the gravekeeper's hut with a coffin on his back, quietly watching the red blood mist escape;
Dawn Church, the church emits holy light to drive away the blood mist. The clergy hurriedly organized a prayer ceremony, and the choir sang in panic. No one noticed that the old and highly respected Priest August stood alone at the door of the church. The holy white light around him made the blood mist gradually move away from the church;
In the Schneider Psychological Clinic, the unlucky middle-aged doctor who left the banquet under Shade's guidance shrank in the corner of the bedroom with a ferocious face. The black flames enveloped him, preventing the blood mist from getting close. The green mold spread everywhere where his body came into contact with the ground and walls, and the black shadows and manic flames protected him;
In Old John's Antique Shop, the elderly shopkeeper's body was glowing with brass. He sighed and looked at the night sky that was gradually covered with blood mist. I wanted to step out of the store, but suddenly I was stunned and looked towards the city center again:
"Damn it, I'm really old, am I dreaming now? Can anything more outrageous happen today?"
In the center of the blood-red light beam, around Count Maupassant's mansion, swarms of blood crows were flying in the blood mist. Countless strange flesh and blood monsters, with indescribable twisted postures, came to the world along with the blood mist. The roaring twisted creatures rushed out of the manor and fought in the blood mist with the ring warlock team of the Righteous God Church near the mansion.
Fortunately, they only appeared from the mansion, otherwise there would be no living people in the city within a few minutes.
Iluna Beas didn’t know why things turned out like this, so she said goodbye to Shade and Luvia. She quickly rushed to the mansion to join her team, and submitted the report of the second place and Luvia. Clues to the vessel where the third **** descended.
Captain Moody Robinson immediately sent someone to notify the team in the mansion, and comforted her with other members of the team. Even if there was a divine vessel, as long as the "grand banquet" itself was destroyed, the ceremony would still not be able to go smoothly.
Almost at the same time as they were talking, the arrest operation in the mansion officially began. As the first **** light emerged from the third floor and flew towards the city, more and more blood lines were centered on the mansion and connected to certain points in the city.
Thousands of citizens scattered in Tobesk who had long drank the special milk from the "Silver Parrot Milk Delivery Company" had their blood drained out and died in their sleep in an instant, thus forming a grand banquet to sacrifice to the evil god. So, amid the shaking of the earth and the howling wind, the blood feast officially began, and the blood mist engulfed the entire city.
Iluna Beas didn’t know why things turned out like this. It was clear that breaking into the ruins tonight was the most dangerous, and the church’s arrest of cultists should be foolproof, but she knew what she should do. .
The blood mist engulfed them, and the monsters that appeared in the mist made the team unable to pay attention to what was going on in the mansion. The girl with short brown hair gritted her teeth, left the team and ran towards the mansion.
A golden life ring appeared behind her, and then the high-speed rotating life ring turned into a scale in the golden light. No one had time to pay attention to her anymore, and the luster of the golden scale made the indescribable thing crawling in the blood mist subconsciously stay away.
She successfully crossed the street, feeling the increasingly intense headache, gritting her teeth and broke into the mansion.
Iluna Beas knew that she had no power to fight against the gods, but the power of the chosen one would definitely be able to have some impact. Entering the manor meant sacrifice, but someone had to do it now.
The blood mist in the manor courtyard was thicker than outside, and the unconscious guests fell to the ground in pieces. And as the young girl gets closer and closer to the mansion building, even though she hasn't seen or heard it yet, her body is already trembling instinctively.
She knew what was on the third floor, knew what she would face, and understood the consequences of doing so.
But there is always someone who has to do something. Even if she becomes the so-called "chosen one", Iluna Bayas does not think that she will become the so-called savior. But from the knowledge she gained, she vaguely knew that her power could slightly influence the saint, so she came. She might die, but she's still here.
On the first floor, guests fell down in droves, which reminded her vaguely of the wheat harvesting scene she had seen when she lived in the countryside during her childhood.
On the second floor, Mr. Hog Rendell, the Thirteenth Ring Warlock of the Church of the Sun, "Sunshine Sword", was laboriously inserting a broken ceremonial sword into the floor with the few people who could stay awake at this time. . She knew that it was a level 0 relic that could limit the saint's range of activities for a short time. It seemed that the current situation was not the worst.
The blood mist is getting thicker and thicker, and the footsteps are getting heavier and heavier. The golden scale formed by the life ring behind her back had become increasingly weak in resisting the blood mist, but the girl with long brown hair still endured the mental and physical pain and came to the third floor.
Finally unable to bear the heavy pressure, only the second-level sorceress fell to the carpet. It was a carpet stained with blood, and blood could be leached out with just a touch. The strange red color seemed to trap millions of souls.
She fell at the foot of the stairs, unable to control her limbs at all, and the blood in her body seemed to be boiling. She almost screamed with a headache, but she still raised her head with difficulty and looked towards the third floor.
This should have been the layout of corridors and rooms, but at this moment, a long table covered with snow-white tablecloth was placed in the open banquet hall. Countless human mummies were wrapped in white cloth and hanging from the ceiling, like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
Ding Dong~
A clear voice seemed to explode directly in my head, and the banquet was about to begin.
On the empty table, silverware and goldware containing fresh human organs appeared one by one. In the **** fog, the sweet smell of food escaped.
At the far end of the long table, a slightly blurry figure in a red formal suit was elegantly manipulating a knife and fork, enjoying the food on the table
She closed her eyes, and blood flowed from her eyes, ears, nose and mouth at the same time:
"I understand, he has not yet fully arrived, this is the evil god"
"Evil God!"
Suddenly a golden light appeared in front of my eyes, and Mr. Hog Rendell, the thirteen-ring warlock "Sunshine Sword", rushed up from the second floor. The middle-aged man's eyes, ears, nose and mouth were bleeding at the same time, but he still held the dazzling golden sword and ran past Miss Bayas. The light of the Sunshine Sword made Miss Bayas, who was also a believer of the Sun God, feel happy. However, the middle-aged man just passed by Miss Bayas and suddenly stopped.
The golden sword in his hand disappeared, and he entered the **** banquet hall. He walked uncontrollably to the table filled with food, pulled out a chair and sat down, motionless.
Iluna is accumulating strength:
"The appearance of Mr. Rendell means that the relics downstairs can now be used. This is the power of God, Shad"
She was lying on the carpet. Maybe it was just a few seconds, maybe it was decades. Suddenly, a whistling sound came from the window, and then more than ten figures crashed through the outer wall of the banquet hall in the holy light. break in. The Church of Dawn, the Church of Creation, the Church of the Sun, the Church of Peace, the Church of Nature, and the high-level ring magicians from the Five Gods Church appeared in Tobesk Diocese almost at the same time. Iluna knew some of them, but most of them were meeting them for the first time. arrive.
They gathered together and broke into the blood feast. For a moment, Iluna thought she almost heard the sound of dozens of different sublimation words being recited. A strange white holy light enveloped these people who knew they would be sacrificed. As the words of sublimation unfolded, the superimposed spatial phenomena in the hole in the wall that was knocked out almost covered the **** banquet hall on the third floor.
Destined to die here, but even if it delays the coming of the Righteous God for one second, it is still a victory for mankind. This is just like facing the arrival of the evil **** a limited number of times in the past. They have already made a mistake once, and there must be no hesitation this time.
"Ahem~"
The figure sitting at the end of the long table, manipulating the knife and fork, coughed, and all sublimated words stopped. Just like the thirteen-ring warlocks, they were swallowed by the blood mist the moment they entered here. They all lost the ability to control their bodies and stiffly looked for their seats.
"No!"
Eluna climbed up with difficulty holding on to the ground, and people finally noticed that there was another person here.
"God should not be on earth."
The one-eyed girl said while vomiting blood, not daring to raise her head to look at the illusory figure at the end of the table, but her words were unusually strong:
"The balance of the material world has been broken by you."
The golden scale behind him rose to the top of his head, and the golden luster actually allowed the high-level warlocks of the church to temporarily regain their ability to move.
"Iluna?"
"Beas?"
"The chosen one actually appeared!"
"Oh, God, is "The Whispering Psalms" real?"
Thumbs, spells and divine spells flickered, but the power of God still suppressed everything in this **** banquet hall.
After briefly breaking free from control, the people at the long table only retained the ability to speak. They closed their eyes and lowered their heads, on the edge of consciousness and coma, unwilling to perceive everything around them.
The one-eyed girl with long brown hair climbed up stiffly and silently opened a seat beside the long table covered with white tablecloth.
The sound of the back of the chair being pulled was not harsh, and she sat down.
