Chapter 270 Sacrifice
Friday, 9pm.
Anna realized early on that there was something wrong with today's father compared to usual.
Although only an eleven-year-old elementary school student, Anna is more mature than most of her peers. She didn't want to admit it, but it was not unrelated to the changes in her early family.
Before she started elementary school, her mother left. An extremely important part of her small world has been dug away, and since then, her father is all she has left.
But if there is one thing that must be said to be lucky, it is that she also has a good enough father.
Although the father can only engage in manual labor because of his low level of education, he insists on working three jobs all year round and does everything he can to give the best to his daughter.
And on the second Friday of every month, he would try his best to hold off on anything that night, taking his daughter to her favorite amusement park.
It was to make his daughter happy, but also for himself.
Because only Anna's smile is the biggest driving force that drives him to get up and welcome every tomorrow.
...at least it used to be.
But I don't know since when, things seem to have changed a little bit.
Although there is no clear evidence, Ana thinks her father may have quit one job - or more than one.
However, that didn't free him any more time. Instead, she recently noticed that her father seemed to be busier than he had been in years.
He gets up earlier in the morning and comes back later in the evening. The whereabouts are a mystery all day, even if she asks, she never reveals a word.
Even the regular monthly amusement park events were cancelled by him. This had never happened in the past, even when my father was at his busiest.
But she also found her father more spirited than at any time in the past few years. He went out every day with full energy, and when he came back, he was very happy, and sometimes hummed a little song, and he seemed to be several years younger.
It looks like some new spiritual sustenance has been found.
Anna originally thought that this might be a good thing - no matter the reason, at least her father finally got out of the shadows and became better.
But to this day, until she was led by her father's rough cocooned hands and came to the altar with the giant python sculpture, and was told by her father kindly that her young and pure soul was fortunate to be chosen as the great Olija The sacrifice of the God of Gang, she finally woke up.
It turned out that her father had long since left her.
That night, she saw that her father was wearing a stupid black robe and a hood, like a cannon fodder used as a backdrop in a movie.
There were also a few others dressed exactly like him, who appeared to be his new companions. Anna didn't know anyone else, but she recognized Uncle Bacchus—one of his father's few friends who seemed to have driven a taxi before.
Uncle Bacchus used to be a good man, and he sometimes took care of Anna when his father was busy. She remembered that they had also been to the playground together, and that her uncle had given her a box of beautifully packaged chocolates.
But now he is also dressed in black and autumn, and he looks stupid.
When she came to her senses, she was already standing in the middle of a huge altar. The altar happened to be built under the open mouth of the giant python sculpture, which made her look like a carefully cooked dish standing on the altar. She noticed that the hexagram was engraved on her feet, which looked like the masterpiece of the medieval wizard in the movie.
Although she didn't quite understand what was going on, she guessed that she might be dying.
However, both the father and the uncle showed happy smiles under the altar.
At this time, Anna couldn't help thinking of the fairy tales her mother read to her when she was very young.
When the princess in every story encounters a crisis, there will always be a handsome and brave prince, who will come to rescue with a sword and a white horse.
...it looks like fairy tales are fairy tales after all.
The engraving of the six-pointed star lit up with green light, and the huge magic circle was activated. A dazzling green light shone from the python's mouth, covering Anna's body, draining her soul through some evil ancient ritual...
...then the light disappeared.
The ceremony was forced to stop.
The expressions of the believers changed quickly, and someone shouted: "The enchantment has been destroyed!"
"Who!? Dare to disturb the sacred ceremony?"
The door was slammed open with a "boom", and Anna's eyes widened in surprise, her heart faintly expecting.
Her prince, His Royal Highness, actually appeared, aggressive and indomitable, with an unstoppable fighting spirit and killing intent.
However, they do not have a white horse, nor a divine sword, only...
...a fancy animal headgear?
"I found it! There is really a nest here!"
"How come there are so many weirdos? It's not enough points..."
"Look, there's a loli over there!"
"Fuck, loli is a treasure of human beings! Needless to say, these Bs will die tonight!"
The Doma believers also seem to be quite annoyed at the "sacred ritual being destroyed". Several people immediately opened the duel plate, and Anna's uncle Bacchus stood up first - it seemed that he was the highest level of the group.
"Is it Bekas's subordinates? Seeking death." The believer said with a sullen face, "Then let you be the substitutes and sacrifices to the great God of Olhagang!"
Before a few players could speak, a certain pair of anchor A, Miss Yuehua, jumped out of the crowd.
"I'll be your opponent!"
As soon as this statement came out, several players next to him couldn't help but look sideways.
"Do you want to go, Miss?"
"Is it really possible? This guy looks like an elite monster. The difficulty may be a bit high..."
"I remember that the anchor can only play simple man-machine at most, and the intermediate level can't do it?"
Miss Yuehua was suddenly unhappy.
Why do you people falsely accuse people of innocence?
After all, I'm also a woman by You Yusang's side, how could I have gotten to such a level!
The intermediate man-machine has obviously won it!
Miss Yuehua angrily opened the duel plate, and took out the bottom deck of the press box that she had hidden so far and had never played with anyone. (However, acrobatics)
Prove yourself through this duel!
I, Miss Yuehua, am not a vase!
"Hmph, is it actually a cute little girl who was sent here?" Bacchus sneered, "I've really been underestimated. Well, I'll let you see the greatness of Oliha Gang's power. It's up to you. Be the first sacrifice!"
"Duel!" x2
