Chapter 866 Sacrifice Ceremony
As he chanted, the dark red light in the dark pyramid began to flash more rapidly, but at this moment, huge dark purple inscriptions suddenly emerged on the surface of the pyramid, sealing the entire pyramid like a chain.
That was the seal left by the last emperor of the ancient magic empire, Emperor Feniers, at the cost of his own life. It not only sealed this child body, but also sealed all the information and concepts that 'him' left in this world. All sealed.
At this point, Gray Mist looked around, and after seeing everyone's prepared responses, a black crystal-like ritual short blade appeared in his hand, and then suddenly pierced the center of the girl's chest.
"Using blood as a guide, the seal will be lifted!"
In an instant, the girl's blood spurted out from the wound and flowed to the altar beneath her.
The sleeping girl suddenly showed a look of pain, as if she was undergoing some kind of huge torture.
As a professional, such an injury would not be directly fatal to her, but as the crystal short blade continued to be devoured, her life was already counting down.
Like a key, sensing the power of the girl's same bloodline, the countless dark purple runes on the dark pyramid suddenly began to gradually disintegrate.
Rumble——! ! !
But at this critical moment, the protection at the cave entrance was suddenly penetrated by some powerful attack, and a huge sonic boom echoed throughout the underground cave.
"What?!"
Alarmed by this sudden scene, several marquises looked towards the entrance in unison. Even Hui Wu, who was presiding over the ceremony, was attracted by it for a moment.
The next moment, Langton, who was surrounded by the power of dark death, rushed out of the cave first and appeared as a brave man of justice. Other partners of the brave team followed closely with a large number of elite members of the Starfire Resistance Army, including a disguised man. The clone of Anvis who became a member of the resistance.
"You are indeed the mastermind behind this! Marquis Winter! Give up! Your evil plan has been discovered by us!"
The huge altar lit with countless scarlet candles was too conspicuous. Langton immediately saw the incarnations of Marquis Winter and other marquis standing in the center. He also saw Lanny lying dying in the center of the altar. The anger in his eyes was almost lustful. Spew out.
He once swore in front of the teacher that he would protect her, but now the girl was tragically reduced to a sacrifice and her life was in danger, which made him almost crazy.
"Lani, hold on! We're coming to save you!"
"Calm down, kid Langton, those are all ninth level! And that pyramid! What is that?!!"
The Dark Crow in Langton's mental space was startled by the scene in the crypt. Langton was too weak to feel anything, but he could clearly sense the horror in the scene.
Langton just rushed over stupidly, and ended up dead, even with his power to protect him!
On the other side, several marquis frowned at the sudden appearance of Langton and others, and looked at them with some confusion.
It shouldn't be like this. Logically speaking, the outside world is currently guarded by people from the Eyes of the Eyes and the Ability God Religion, and there are even ninth-level beings presiding over it.
How could these miscellaneous fish, who were not even the ninth level, possibly break into this place?
But the next moment, several powerful auras appeared, clearing the doubts of the marquis.
[Guardian of the Star], [Heart of Darkness], and [Grey], the three strongest royal guardians at the ninth level, have suddenly arrived together at this moment!
In addition to the three royal guardians, several other ninth-level people who were originally attached to the royal family also appeared here at this moment. They looked prepared. The defenders outside had obviously been held back by strong men of the same level.
Seeing this, several marquises relaxed their brows, thinking that they understood the truth of the matter. These little characters who rushed in first were just trail explorers, and those behind were the real masterminds behind the scenes.
"Winter, Anrita, Draka, Anderson, Beshim, Cuijing... you have colluded with the ninth level of the Federation to start a civil war in the empire with the intention of releasing the evil god. Now, I declare in the name of treason that I will take back your The position of Imperial Marquis!"
At this moment, the leader of the three guardians, [Hui], who was wearing a gray hooded robe, spoke calmly and directly deprived the marquises of their titles.
"Deprive us of our titles? Chi——"
Hearing this, the marquises looked at each other, and Marquis Draka couldn't help but sneer.
How long have you been talking about this? When the dark doomsday comes, the Gloria Empire will no longer exist, and there will be no title or nobility.
At the same time, they also looked at the person in Tongzhongzhifen on the side.
Since they are all allies now, the pressure from the empire's royal family must be shouldered by everyone together.
The two sides did not speculate, and after a few high-sounding words, the royal guardians finally took the initiative to attack, and all kinds of weird rules attacked the altar and the huge magic circle on the ground.
As time goes by, the seal is gradually being cracked, and continuing to delay it will only serve the purpose of the marquis.
As for Langton and others who wanted to save people, no one on either side of the confrontation took them to heart at all. A scarlet spherical light curtain enveloped the entire thirteenth-floor altar. While desperately delaying time, Langton and his party were killed. People were blocked outside.
As a protective array presided over by the Ninth Level himself, this protective light curtain is enough to resist the regular attacks of the Ninth Level, let alone existences below the Ninth Level.
Seeing the appearance of the royal guardians, Langton also understood that he was being used and unintentionally became a leader.
But he didn't care at this moment. The power of the imperial family attracted the attention of the marquises in front, which was just the right opportunity for him to save people.
"Everyone! Use that trick! Lend me your power!"
Without hesitation, Landon looked at his companions. They immediately understood his intention and quickly stood in a special position, forming a mysterious magic circle, gathering their own power and the power of the energy storage magic device prepared in advance on Landon.
With the help of everyone and the Dark Crow, he struggled to pull out a broken sword as black as night from his chest. The blade was surrounded by the terrifying power of the withering rule, and even the space he touched began to have unstable cracks.
"Withering of all things!"
The next moment, Landon roared, and the black broken sword in his hand instantly chopped on the light shield!
Under the impact of the power of withering, the scarlet rule shield shattered like glass, and this scene caught the Marquis off guard. Landon took the opportunity to dash up to the platform, snatched the unconscious girl away, and then disappeared under the power of the Dark Crow.
Several Marquises looked at Gray Mist with some doubts. Even with the pressure from the royal guardians, the other party was clearly able to stop the little guy who just used strange power, but seemed to deliberately let him go.
"Don't worry, the ceremony will not be affected."
Gray Mist glanced at the unsealing array. At this moment, the array was still functioning normally. He just needed Lanny's blood as a medium to unseal it. It was not really a sacrificial ceremony, and the blood needed was already enough.
As the son of destiny, Landon could easily cause trouble if he forcibly stopped it at this time. Besides, Landon had other functions, but there was no need to tell these irrelevant people.
So, although Landon rescued people and escaped, the ceremony itself was still functioning normally. As the dark purple sealing runes on the dark pyramid gradually disappeared, a creepy feeling, as if being targeted by a natural enemy, gradually arose in the hearts of all those present.
