The Amber Sword

Scene 248 Living Sacrifice Ceremony

Brando came to the leader of the Sheep-headed Cultists, looked at the guy's condition, and couldn't help but smile bitterly after being stunned. The leader of the Sheep-Headed Cult had his jaw completely shattered by that punch, his mouth was full of blood, and he was lying in the mud like a dead fish. How could he be interrogated? He turned back to look at Huang Huo, who stuck out his tongue in a rare embarrassment.

"Leave it to me, I have a way to get him to talk." It was Fang Qi who spoke. He came back at some point, carrying the body of a Sheep-headed cultist in his hand. He probably didn't bother to strip the clothes. kind of thing. He threw the body in his hand onto a nearby dry mound and spoke.

"You?" Brando looked at this guy in surprise. The big expression on his face was that he probably didn't expect that this guy could be useful. He brought this guy with him on this trip purely because he might need to enter the realm of stagnation. Just blood.

"Hmph, I don't want to wear those damn stinking robes. Aren't you going to Martaha? It's okay if I don't go into the city. I'll wait for you in the wild."

"Is this your condition?" Brando looked strange: "You won't go into the city?"

"Don't worry, I swear in the name of Ghost Che, I will never run away alone. Besides, I am also interested in the mystery of Jade."

"Well, if you insist..." Brando hurriedly interrupted the guy, lifted the leader of the goat-headed cult from the muddy water, and threw it to him: "We will only stay in Maltaha for a while. Stay, you only need to stay in the wild for a few hours. Then wait for us south of the town, don't leave too far, I will use the communication crystal to contact you."

Fang Qi took the leader of the Sheep-headed Cult with one hand and nodded.

I have to say that although this guy is not gregarious, he does have his own methods. He quickly got the answer Brando wanted from the leader of the Sheep-headed Cult who screamed repeatedly. Brando didn't know how this guy made the sheep-headed believer with a broken jaw accurately express what he meant. However, looking at Fang Qi's face of refusing to talk to others, I guess it must be the secret of Gui Che's family. Everyone has their own secret, and Brando will naturally not force it.

According to the information obtained from the leader of the Sheep-Headed Cultists, these Sheep-Headed Cultists happened to be heading south to Maltaha, which did not exceed Brando's expectations. There is only one town to the south in this swamp. He then asked Fang Qi to ask the leader of the Sheep-Headed Cult what they were going to Maltaha for, and the answer he got was that the other party planned to go to Deharan through Maltaha to participate in a sacrificial ceremony.

Port Deharan is a port city on the sea within the Dead Moon. It is located south of Maltaha and is nominally a port under the jurisdiction of Madara. The owner of Deharan Port is the Hoduli family, a dark noble family with a long history. This family firmly controls Deharan's port, chamber of commerce and large and small businesses through an organization called the Gray Scepter. Guild, according to the information provided by Queen Madala, almost all the top leaders of this organization are composed of secret society Sheep-Headed Cultists. The head of the Hoduli family is also a secret believer of the Yangshou Cult.

When Brando saw this information for the first time, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It seemed that although Madara was abandoned by the Union of All Things, the country was not a pure land. The same evil beliefs were rampant. First there were tree shepherds, Later, there were Yangshou believers, and every family had scriptures that were difficult to recite.

However, the sacrificial ritual mentioned by the leader of the Sheephead Cultists caught his attention. Wornde's cultists will perform some evil rituals every three days, such as living sacrifices or blood sacrifices or summoning demons, etc.; of course, the objects of living sacrifices and blood sacrifices may not necessarily be humans or other intelligent beings every time. Domestic animals such as cattle and sheep can also be used, but intelligent creatures are often used as objects of living sacrifice, which must be a very high-standard sacrificial ceremony.

Just what the leader of the Yangshou Cultists said was that this ceremony was a high-level ceremony. The Yangshou Cultists had spread the news through their private communication channels half a month ago, allowing the Yangshou Cultists in the Taokeqi area to report to Deharan gathers,

Go and participate in this living sacrifice ceremony that is expected to take place in three days.

Brando asked about the living sacrifice ceremony. But there were very few answers. It seemed that the leader of the Sheep Head Cult was just a temporary convener. He only knew the approximate time and scale of the living sacrifice ceremony, but he didn't know anything else.

Brando has no mercy for such people. After asking for all the information, Fang Qi was asked to 'deal with' the other party so that he could be sent to Martha to confess. But when Fang Qi drew his sword and was about to take action, the man seemed to be aware of his situation. He struggled in fear and screamed out another piece of information, intending to save his life. Unfortunately, Fang Qi was indifferent to this and directly A sword sent him on his way.

The latter returned to Brando and recounted the last words shouted by the leader of the Sheep-Headed Cultists, which meant that the leader of the Sheep-Headed Cultists had heard from hearsay that the living sacrifice ceremony was in private channels. Related to the opening of the Attuk Holy Land.

"What is the Holy Land of Atuk?" Brando asked.

No one present could answer this question. Brando was a little speechless about Fang Qi's "Decisive Killing", but fortunately this issue is not critical. The Holy Land of Atuk is obviously a place known only to the Sheep-Headed Cultists. There are not many other things in this area. There are quite a few of these disgusting guys, and when they arrive at Maltaha, they will have plenty of opportunities to gather information.

Therefore, after he glanced at Fang Qi angrily, he ordered others to put on the robes of the Sheep-Headed Cult. Except for Mr. Liu, the three ladies all expressed varying degrees of unwelcomeness towards these foul-smelling robes. ——The prime minister's daughter first put on her robe with a look of disgust, then put on her hood, and then quickly took it off again. She immediately took a deep breath, and her face seemed to turn a little pale.

Then came Magdalen. The nun princess was holding the robe helplessly with a look of determination on her face, as if it was not a robe but a length of rope on the gallows. As long as she put it on, she would immediately suffocate to death. of.

Brando saw Her Royal Highness gritting her teeth again and again, as if she had made up her mind, then put on the robe, and then shook her whole body twice.

Only Huang Huo behaved calmly and calmly. The little princess actually took out scissors and needle and thread from her luggage, and cut the robe into one size smaller to fit her body shape. Brando was a little stunned for a moment. Mr. Liu explained to him on the side that this little princess of the Yufeng lineage was quite ingenious. Most of her own clothes were designed and cut by herself. After learning this The news couldn't help but make Brando look at this little princess who was supposed to be well-dressed and well-fed.

But before he could finish his sigh, he saw Huang Huo sprinkle layer upon layer of spices into the robe with a look of disgust on his face, and then covered his face with a silk scarf before putting on the robe. robe. Fortunately, most sheep-headed believers are people who hide their heads and tails, and covering their faces is more in line with their characteristics.

In fact, Huang Huo's move was quickly imitated by the two ladies. The little princess seemed to have been prepared and took out two more silk scarves and spices, which made Magdale and Delphine extremely grateful.

Seeing this scene, Brando couldn't help but feel a little confused. He couldn't help but lift up his sleeve and smell it - thinking, is it really that smelly? As a result, this action immediately made his stomach churn. Even though he was close to the level of the perfect body in the sage realm, he almost vomited.

"Martha, how long have these damn guys not had a shower?"

As for Fang Qi, he had already said that he would not put on these robes even if he was killed first. After Brando and him agreed on the meeting place, the group of people divided into two groups and headed directly towards Maltaha.

The teleportation point was obviously not far from Maltaha. It didn't take long for traces of human activities to appear in the swamps. Along the way, they also bumped into several groups of sheep-headed believers who were also heading towards Maltaha. Fortunately, the Sheephead believers are relatively solitary, and there is little intersection between different groups. Although both parties have the same destination, when they meet each other, most of them just look at each other and be on guard to separate again. Just say hello and ask where the other person is from.

And Brando had already asked for relevant information from the leader of the Sheep-Headed Cultists, so he also made up an identity. No one would investigate carefully anyway. The Sheep-Headed Cultists are followers of demons and chaos, and their behavior is confusing. , I don’t think there will be any big leaks.

Soon, the shadow of a town appeared in the mist - the town in the swamp was obviously not too big. Maltahar sounded like a town, but in fact it was just a resting place for travelers on the way to Deharan. It's just a temporary place to stay. Even if there are some permanent residents, there won't be too many. Therefore, the size of Maltaha is not much larger than a village. The town has more hotels of various sizes than ordinary villages and towns, also for the convenience of pedestrians passing by.

Of course, there are no serious pedestrians in this area. It is mainly for the convenience of the sheep-headed believers' pilgrimage.

Brando had inquired clearly before that the Port of Deharan was the headquarters of the Sheep-headed Believers in the Tauchik area, and the heads of this generation of the Hoduli family were also the 'Patriarch' of this area. job. The Goat-Headed Cultists are different from the Tree Shepherds. This cult does not have an obvious tree-like high-level organization. It can be seen all over Warnd. However, the Goat-Headed Cultists have almost no contact with each other, large and small. The 'Patriarch' manages the faithful in different areas. Most of these patriarchs don't know each other, and they may even never have any contact with each other in their lives. This is a fragmented organization. However, since he can bear the title of 'Patriarch', it at least means that the head of the Hoduli family can be regarded as the 'chief leader' of the Sheep Head believers in the Tauchik area.
