Chapter 110: Evening Sacrifice

The scarlet moonlight reflected on the snow, and the whole mountain was dyed red.

The cry that was getting closer and closer was like a cold wind, and it went straight to the bones of people. An Wu Jiu felt that his hands were already frozen, as if they were stuck to the sarcophagus, and he couldn't let go at all.

The blood moon in the sky is getting bigger and bigger, as if it is slowly approaching, the day is already dead in front of it, and it is forced to the last ray of light, and the whole earth will be shrouded in blood.

"Is that there!"

An Wu Jiu looked in the direction pointed by Tengtang Sakura, it was the top of the mountain, a strange blue flame was burning on the top, eagles and vultures were circling above the flame.

There was a thick fog rising from the surroundings, and the fog engulfed the entire snow-colored plain little by little, and it caged this hill, perhaps because of the scarlet moonlight, or perhaps because of their bodies in the sarcophagus, faintly dangling in the thick fog Has a foul smell.

Everyone worked together to carry the sarcophagus towards the top of the mountain. When they got close, they found that the fire was burning higher than people. The sarcophagus was placed heavily on the ground, and snow and dust flew up and got into the nasal cavity.

An Wujiu coughed a few times and looked down into the distance. The strange "screaming" sound still did not disappear, but appeared irregularly, stretched, and penetrated the entire water city.

A voice appeared, but it wasn't the holy sound they were familiar with, it was a strange language they didn't understand, a murky, sticky voice that seemed to come from the depths of their throats.

Everyone listened and looked around, only to feel that it seemed to come from this flaming blue flame.

But An Wujiu thought it was not.

"Now that you are here, let's get started."

He turned his head and looked at the person who said this.

That was Noah, her eyes were staring straight at the flames, her eyes were completely illuminated, turning into a beautiful and eerie blue, and her face had completely lost its vitality, as if a fake, controlled puppet.

She repeated the words just now, as if being controlled by the flames, driven by the flames to speak the language they could understand.

An Wujiu called her softly, so Noah twisted his neck stiffly and stared at An Wujiu.

In an instant, the blue contractions that spread out in her pupils generally faded and returned to normal.

"What's wrong? Brother Wu blame."

Her voice was full of innocence, but it fell into An Wu Jiu's ears, but it overlapped with the voice in the flames just now.

An Wu Jiu felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart, the sharp sound of metal friction flashed repeatedly in his mind, "What were you looking at just now?"

Noah raised his hand and pointed to the fire.

She said it was the seed of God's fire.

An Wu Jiu didn't understand what she meant, the next moment, that group of flames sent out a new command, which was also a strange unknown language.

And Noah opened his mouth and passed it on for everyone.

"Start offering sacrifices, human beings who know the oracles, everything you have belongs to the Supreme Lord."

As soon as he finished speaking, An Wu Jiu felt his hands move uncontrollably!

Like him, everyone is like this, and they are automatically driven by some unknown mysterious force to make various actions. Lao Yu pulled Andrew out of the sarcophagus, Matsuura laid him flat on the ground, Wu You held his chest, Nan Shan fed the unconscious him and drank a glass of liquid from a stone tool, Yang Ce and Zhou Yijue lifted him up together The heavy stone plate, before the flames.

Noah beat the drum stiffly, and Megan placed the stone frame and the sharp thorn pillars. Todo Sakura held up what seemed to be a musical instrument in both hands, raised her hand slowly, and placed it Place on lips.

Todo Sakura played this ancient musical instrument, hoarse, low-pitched sound mixed with sharpness, blending with the heavy drum sound, each sound like a sharp knife, stabbed into their chests one by one.

Fear crawls slowly on the skin like a reptile.

An Wu Jiu's hands were shaking, his arms were stiffly folded inwards, the power in the dark seemed to be looking for something from him, his hands groped uncontrollably, and finally he took hold of the sharp knife.

His legs and feet were also out of his control, and he stepped forward, approaching Andrew's body.

"Come on, human."

"Everything you have comes from me, the sun, the rain, the power, the mysteries of life, the precious knowledge to survive... these are all given by me."

His body sank suddenly, his knees could not support him, he knelt on the ground.

"I gave you life!"

The voice was empty and loud, and they were just a few humans on the small hilltops in the world of ice and snow, standing in the middle of the thick fog, unable to see everything around them. Only the blood-colored full moon above their heads grew bigger and bigger, pressing them heavily, and the edge of the moon seemed to touch the top of the mountain.

It's so big that you can barely see the border.

Shen Ti's heart felt empty and painful, a vague and unreal feeling. He found that everyone seemed to be driven by an unnatural force, making regular movements, like machines.

Even An Wujiu was like that.

He saw An Wu Jiu kneeling in front of Andrew, with his hand drawn from his robe, holding an obsidian sharp knife that gleamed under the blood moon.

"Come on, pierce his chest with these holy hands!"

"Obsidian cut out the heart and dedicated it to the ice blue flame!"

An Wu Jiu's body was icy cold, he almost used all his strength to resist the power that enveloped him.

Then his hands began to tremble, and his heart suddenly stopped for a moment.

Then, unexpectedly, his heart beat violently, as fast as a human being, and a hot stream of heat was pumped out of his heart, one after another, spreading rapidly and violently throughout his body.

Green, large swathes of green flowed in this land, as if it was going to flow into An Wu Jiao's eyes.

So he fell back heavily, but not on the icy snow, but in Shen Ti's arms.

His eyes were closed in pain, his fingers loosened, and the obsidian sharp knife fell to the ground.

"No blame, no blame..." Shen Ti tried to wake up, but to no avail, before he woke up, the sharp knife beside them was suddenly grasped by a pale hand and taken away.

Shen Ti raised his head, his pupils dilated for a moment.

It's Noah.

Noah's two small hands held the obsidian sharp knife, raised it high above his head, and then lowered it fiercely.

"Noah—"

Just when Shen Ti hugged An Wujiu and shouted, the warm liquid splashed on his face, and a scarlet montage was covered on his left eye.

"Heart, I need a heart that's still beating!"

The voice whispered repeatedly, and everything in front of him was as strange as a nightmare.

Shen Ti frowned, picked up the fainted An Wu Jiu by the waist, and prepared to be here, but the next second, the vultures and eagles circling in the sky swooped down, aiming at Noah.

Noah bent down, intending to put the sacrifice in his hand into the concave circle in the center of the stone plate.

Shen Ti originally wanted to watch, but now he is no longer the original him, he knew that if it was An Wujiu, he would definitely save Noah.

So he did that, he fell on Noah and covered Noah's face with his own body. Those black raptors rushed towards her hand and took the sacrifice that was still beating in her hand.

They shred it and eat it, and it disappeared in an instant.

Shen Ti raised her eyes and met Noah's blue eyes, a strange smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, as if she felt ridiculous and proud that he saved her.

It must be an illusion.

Shen Ti backed away and wanted to reach out to La Noah to get up, but Noah just stretched out her bloody hand, but didn't let Shen Ti hold it.

The musical instrument in Tengtang Sakura's hand let out a mournful cry, and Shen Ti vaguely heard Noah spit out a few words, but he couldn't understand the content, and he could only see the wriggling of her lips in the mist.

There was a strange noise behind him, Shen Ti turned his head and saw that the sarcophagus was sealed with the lid, and a scribbled stone tablet emerged from the ground and stood in front of the sarcophagus.

The stele is engraved with Andrew Greco.

"Sleep in peace, heavy body, your heart is with God."

Noah's rose-colored lips opened and closed, and the strange flame language was translated with a pure voice.

"I need to devour your fragility, confusion, anger, fear, despair, the deepest despair, enough, enough to make me reborn."

"You will witness my return."

After saying this, Noah also fell to the snow in response, and at the same time, the originally flaming flame shrank into a spark and disappeared in the wind.

The thick fog gradually dissipated, and the people who were controlled by the unknown force gradually regained their clarity, while An Wujiu, who was sleeping in Shen Ti's arms, was full of blood.

"No blame, no blame!"

Wu You, who woke up from the illusion, also found An Wu Jiao who was in a coma, he immediately squatted down and stretched out his fingers to probe An Wu Jiao's breath.

He's not breathing!

"Brother Wugui!"

Shen Ti didn't believe it, he stretched out his hand to hold An Wujiu's chest, pressing it tightly, feeling that the lines under the skin on the back of his hand were almost squeezed out.

At this moment, An Wu Jiu's heart skipped a beat.

He slowly opened his eyes.

What Wu You could not have imagined was that his pupils turned green, and a blood moon was reflected in the emerald green pupils.

But in only two to three seconds, An Wu Jiu's pupils gradually became darker and darker, and finally returned to his own black pupils.

"ended?"

An Wujiu's voice was weak.

Wu You nodded, "It's over. Let's... let's go back."

After he finished speaking, he heard Noah's scream.

Todo Sakura hugged her body and covered her eyes.

This evening, they seemed to have experienced the most terrifying nightmare, uncontrolled hands, uncontrolled lives.

Shen Ti also saw An Wujiu's eyes, the moment he woke up, his eyes were exactly the same as his own.

On the way back to the temple, An Wujiu’s mind kept replaying the images of offering sacrifices at dusk, interspersed with his childhood memories, these images seemed to have been seen in his childhood, perhaps in a book, or maybe It was his mother's dictation on his pillow before bed.

He raised his hand and grabbed the clothes on his left chest.

Why is it that only Shen Ti can be completely out of control when offering sacrifices?

Why can he also break through that kind of spiritual imprisonment, while others can't.

An Wu Jiu knew that Shen Ti was special, but he wanted to know why he was special too.

There was a dead silence in the temple. The twelve people they had when they came here became eleven people, and one of them turned into a tombstone on the top of the mountain. The crowd silently ate and swallowed dry tortillas to maintain their basic survivability, while the fear that was hard to dissipate a few hours ago was still in their throats.

An Wujiu knew that he would lose his eyesight soon, but he was about to receive an important message.

He drank the water from the stone cup, and the liquid that was so cold that it almost condensed opened his throat like a sharp blade. An Wu Jiu saw Tengtang Ying's trembling hands and Lao Yu's absent pupils.

He thought, after staying here for a long time, maybe they will lose their minds.

The holy voice appeared at this time, "Everyone, the curfew time is coming soon, you have been tired all day, please go back to your room and rest as soon as possible."

He specifically instructed, "Today, each of you must sleep in the corresponding room, because someone will leave tonight, and you have no antidote for resurrection."

As soon as the voice fell, the lights in the hall flickered.

Everyone followed the instructions and left here in despair. Shen Ti wanted to follow An Wujiu, but he stopped him.

"I'm afraid you will foul me because of me."

An Wu Jiu raised his face and placed a kiss on Shen Ti's cool lips.

"I'll be fine." He comforted Shen Ti.

In the dark corridor, Shen Ti watched An Wujiu's back figure go away a little bit, and he didn't turn around until he didn't enter the corner.

In the room, the bone-chilling cold wrapped An Wu Jiao's body. Before his eyesight disappeared, he retrieved the three Easter egg cards he had obtained from the panel.

"Do you want to draw the easter egg content now?"

An Wujiu responded to the system sound, "Yeah."

Today's sacrifice aggravated the fear in his heart, he was afraid that he would really lose his vigilance and lose his companions.

The first card jumped in front of him, the back of the virtual card was facing An Wu Jiao, with a brightly colored egg on it.

"Please click."

An Wu Jiu stretched out his index finger and touched the card, the card shook, and finally shattered into countless light spots, and those light spots gathered together to become a new white card.

"Sorry, your first easter egg card didn't draw any function cards."

Did you just waste one?

An Wu Jiu's palms were almost sweating, he picked another orange one, took a deep breath, and touched the easter egg on the card.

The shattered light flew like a firefly, spinning in this crimson room, and finally condensed into a brand new card, this time the card was still white.

An Wu Jiu was a little disappointed and felt that his luck was indeed a little worse.

If possible, he would rather find someone to help him draw, but he thought about it quickly and found that few of his companions and friends seemed to have good luck.

The white card was turned over, and unlike what he expected, the front of the card this time had a beautiful picture drawn on it. It was a beautiful witch holding an ancient clock, and the SS logo was printed in the lower left corner.

"Congratulations, get the time conversion card."

time shift?

An Wujiu read the instructions on the card.

"This card is limited to one use. Players can use their own health to exchange time before the end of the game, so as to turn back time. All the player's health can be converted into half of the game process to reverse the flow, and so on. Players who use the card can use the card themselves Select the time to be converted, and the system will automatically deduct the corresponding health value."

This function is stronger than An Wu Jiu imagined, he thought it was to prolong the game time, but according to the introduction, it is a retrospective.

Even if it can only be used once, it is already very powerful, and he can go back to a time when a companion was not in danger.

An Wu Jiu saw a small glowing orange dot in the lower right corner of the card, he clicked it, and other cards were displayed in front of him.

"The following are the same type of skill cards, which can also be obtained by drawing easter egg cards."

An Wu Jiu looked at it, there were a total of three cards, as expected, there are also the extended time cards he imagined, the middle one is the time card of stilling others, and the other one is the reverse time card.

The one on the far right has SSS printed on it and appears to be one of the rarest cards.

The pattern on it is a number of interlaced silver-gray lines, overlapping the same Milky Way.

It has the space-time card written on it.

The introduction of this card is very simple. Players who hold this card can dissolve the boundary of time and space, reverse and speed up time and space, but correspondingly, the player will pay a huge price, such as losing almost all of their health, or reducing 90% of their health. Ability, this price varies from person to person.

The stronger the skill, the more terrifying the price.

An Wujiu wanted to open the third one, but the system reminded him that the number of draws for today had been exhausted and he could not draw.

At the same time, An Wujiu lost all his eyesight and fell into darkness.

After a while, a bloody arrow appeared in front of his eyes, pointing in the direction of the door.

"It's getting dark, tomb guards please open your eyes."

"Please go to the cemetery and check whether the players who sacrificed today are good or bad."
