Chapter 653: Coming Soon

The man entangled in the grass continued.

"Goddess can witness for me, God knows how much I want to talk to you face to face, we can sit in the warm living room, sitting in a comfortable chair, drinking black tea, tasting nutty chocolate cake made by my pastry chef, believe me , that kind of flavor is sure to be unforgettable after you try it.”

"It's a pity that the long distance makes us have to communicate in this way. I heard that the university in Tingen is trying to develop a tool that allows people to communicate over long distances. I sincerely hope that they will develop it quickly. In this way , the telegraph can become history."

Speaking of this, he paused, and then said: "Now you believe it, this is what I asked Oswald to write in the letter specially, as a 'password' for me to connect with the field personnel."

Xifa has no doubts at this time, unless the content of Oswald's letter is leaked, otherwise, the man in front of him is the committee member he is looking for, Lu Sien Vincent!

Before reading Oswald's letter, he felt strange. Since the association was anxious to find Lu Sien, how could Oswald have the time to write so much 'nonsense', which turned out to be the 'password' used to connect with Lu Sien.

He didn't mention it directly in the letter, probably because he was worried that he would be psychic, which would endanger Lu Sien.

It has to be said that the Association has considered it very carefully.

Since there was no doubt, Xifa also acted. He used "Devil May Cry" to easily cut off the roots that were entangled with Lu Sien. After a while, he pulled the association member out of the grass.

Lying on the grass, panting, after a while, Lu Sien got up and said, "You came just in time. I have been hiding in XZ on their 'Holy Mountain' for several days."

"They have been searching for me, until yesterday, unfortunately, I was found by them, and then thrown here as a sacrifice, allowing those weird plants to invade my body."

"Fortunately, I have been in and out of various ruins all year round and have experienced many dangers, so I always have various items to deal with dangers, including powder made to deal with some strange plants."

"But even so, if you come one day later, I will probably be invaded by plants like those residents, and my spirituality and vitality will be sucked away by them."

Xifa looked around and asked, "What happened here?"

"I don't know, but based on my experience, it should be the god they have always believed in, the existence called 'Astuka' who went crazy or lost control."

Lu Sien patted off the mud powder and grass powder on his body: "So the local believers are frantically looking for sacrifices. If they can't find them, they will sacrifice to the residents of the island. In the past week, I have witnessed their chief sacrifices with my own eyes. , to trick the residents of the town to come here under various names, and use some kind of ritual to let the trees invade their bodies and use them as sacrifices."

"Okay, don't worry about it so much, unless you want to deal with a god who is crazy or out of control, otherwise, we have to go now."

Lu Sien looked around and said: "After I go back, I will contact the Church of Storms and ask them to eradicate this place. They will be happy to do so."

Xifa also agrees with Lu Sien's idea, but he has no plans to leave yet: "One of my companions was captured, and the other party seems to use the method of possessing evil spirits to control him. I have to find him."

Lu Sien glanced at Xifa in surprise: "You didn't come here alone?"

He then shook his head: "Give up, it's too dangerous to go any further, it's better for us to leave immediately."

"You go first, Mr. Lu Sien, but I have to find a companion before I leave." Xifa turned around and was about to trace those footprints again.

Lu Sien followed and persuaded, "Your companion may be dead."

"No, he's still alive, I can be sure of that." Xifa added, "I've done divination."

"You are a 'Seer'?" Lu Sien held Xifa's hand and said, "Even if he is still alive, can't you see that this is a trap?"

"Maybe." Xifa took his hand away and said, "But I can't just go back like this. If I'm the one being controlled, I also hope that someone will save me."

Lu Sien stared at him for two seconds, then pulled his hair: "I can't stand people like you, well, maybe I know where I can find your companion."

"I can take you there, but you have to promise me that if we are sure that we cannot rescue your companion, then we will leave immediately."

He sighed: "Damn it, if I wasn't the Sequence 7, it would be too dangerous to go alone, so I wouldn't go crazy with you."

Xifa couldn't find a reason to refuse, so he readily agreed.

Lu Sien stretched his arms and legs, then went into the woods: "Follow me."

After crossing the mountains for a while, according to the changes of the stars in the sky, Xifa determined that he had come to the other side of the island.

Here is a primeval forest, walking all the way behind Lu Sien, Xifa saw some stone sculptures that were almost buried by vines from time to time, those statues were full of twisted and evil feeling, and it was even more gloomy at night.

When they climbed a high slope, Sifa heard a faint, fast-paced but strange-pitched singing.

Lu Sien lay down on the ground, gestured to Xifa not to reveal his figure, and then pointed down the high slope.

Like him, Xifa lay down on the ground and crawled over carefully. Looking down from the high slope, the forest below had been cleared out to an open space, and there was an ancient but collapsed ruin in the open space.

There are braziers scattered around the ruins, and the fires are either bright or dim, reflecting the interior of the ruins indistinctly.

In the middle of the ruins, you can see an ancient well with a large mouth and a diameter of more than one meter.

There are bare-chested people with many strange patterns on their bodies dancing around this ancient well. Their dance has a taste of madness, and the muscles on the faces of those dancers are twitching, and their eyes are rolled up. It seems that the spirit has entered A psychedelic state.

Among those people, Xifa saw a familiar figure.

Church!

The gray-haired man, like the residents on the island, was bare-chested, painted with patterns, and danced a weird dance.

At this time, something seemed to rise in the ancient well. Xifa noticed that two men beside the well were pushing a hinge, which seemed to be some kind of mechanism. Under their push, a platform in the ancient well rose up.

On the platform, stood a woman, about thirty years old, with a relatively ordinary appearance, and her dark brown hair was fixed with a pearl barrette.

Although the woman now wore a robe full of magical symbols, decorated with many bird feathers, and wore a necklace made of bones around her neck, Sifa recognized her.

That is the servant of Mrs. Hilda, the chief priest on the island, Ms. Leanna!

At this time, Leanna, who came down from the platform in the well, looked around, raised her hands and announced: "The great Asturka has responded, and thanks to our efforts, we offered enough sacrifices to allow him to gain power. "

"He is about to be born!"
