Chapter 249: One Step to the Peak!

According to the scriptures, the god believed in by this sect of time is not the seducer that Sean knows.

They generally call him the Great Lord in their sect, and the honorific name is a bit strange.

The awakener in the deepest part, the reincarnation in the highest place, looking down on this land from the starry sky - the upper storyteller, the thief of time.

According to Matthew, the honorific title of the upper storyteller will attract terrible attention, so their sect is called the sect of time.

Matthew is the second-level leader in the sect, called the web-weaving priest, basically traveling around the world, sending some sacrifices to their great Lord from time to time, and occasionally taking on some work of attracting new people.

The only meaning of the existence of the sect of time is to welcome the coming of the Lord.

In addition to Matthew, there are other members of the sect of time who are active outside and planning various sacrificial ceremonies.

According to the scriptures, some of the rituals used by Matthew and others come from the Lord's gifts, but there are no detailed records.

This made Sean a little confused. The Lord of the Time Cult and the Lurker Gao Yu seemed to have little to do with each other. How come the nature of the power transformed by the sacrificial ceremony was almost the same?

In fact, it was essentially a high-level power? For example, both were deep blue?

Putting aside the doubts for the time being, the information provided by Matthew could already allow Sean to "make a fortune."

Most of the rituals mastered by the Time Cult were sacrificial, but two of them interested Sean very much.

"Purification Ceremony" and "Blessing Ceremony".

Purification rituals are generally used for outsiders - the believers of the Time Cult believe that the power transformed by the sacrificial ceremony contains the Lord's test, that is, those pollutions that are different from those of the crazy beasts. Only by surviving them can you prove your piety to the Lord.

How many people will die? Otherwise, your Time Cult has not developed very well so far... Sean secretly complained.

The blessing ceremony is a variation of the sacrifice ceremony, which can grant believers some strange superpowers, and even enchant prosthetics. Common ones include underwater breathing, high temperature resistance, etc., and advanced ones even have self-healing level improvement.

And a few believers who are blessed will also awaken small superpowers, and the effect varies from person to person.

However, the blessing ceremony needs to retain some pollution, and the burden on people is still not small.

However, for Sean, this is not a big problem...

Before this, although this power surrounding him was huge, it was also a dangerous poisonous mushroom, and Sean did not dare to take it... Now it is different.

There is just one problem-there is a Jude who is thirsty for power next to him.

If Sean purifies all the power and embezzles it, Jude will definitely be suspicious, and this involves his interests...

After calculating in his mind, Sean sent a voice message to Matthew again.

The latter nodded repeatedly, then turned to Jude with an extremely envious expression: "Governor, the great Lord has shown his mercy, and he is even willing to give you the opportunity to choose!"

Jude, who had been watching all this, was in doubt. He originally did not believe in the so-called gods, but Matthew's performance... Is he communicating with his Lord?

Thinking in his heart, his tone of voice unconsciously became much more respectful: "May I ask, what is the choice He gave?"

Matthew said: "Madness and peace."

"What do these mean?" Jude frowned and asked.

Matthew did not need to communicate with his great Lord this time and immediately said: "I told you before that the power transformed by the ritual is not 100%, and you are not a believer of my sect, so you need to be purified. But no matter what, the power will still be polluted."

Jude nodded, he had known this for a long time.

Matthew continued: "Madness is more pollution and more power, and peace is less but pure power."

"The latter is not polluted?" Jude asked.

"Yes."

Jude immediately fell into distress.

Strength is proportional to risk... But if you choose peace, there is no risk...

The latter is better no matter how you look at it... But I am almost at the end of my life, and I have already prepared many things to deal with pollution...

After a while, Jude raised his head: "Please turn to Him, I choose madness."

Matthew immediately showed joy: "You are indeed the seedling of my Time Sect!"

He closed his eyes and opened them again after a while.

"The Lord said, if you choose madness, then exclude madness, and He will give you peace."

Jude choked, your choice... is to let me exclude the answer? !

Although he was unwilling, he didn't know the true situation of this evil god, so he didn't dare to refute it.

He had to lower his head: "Thank Him for His gift."

The evil god showed a fox-like smile, that's right, Governor.

Giving choices can show the kindness of God, but there is only one choice, that is peace.

If you choose peace, then you have chosen the right one, and if you choose madness, then you have excluded an option yourself.

Anyway, the final right of interpretation is mine.

Sean is almost certain that if he deliberately increases the pollution, Jude will become a monster like Cook and finally explode and die.

But that would not benefit Sean, and it would waste the power he could use.

However, Sean can keep most of the power this time, as long as he gives Jude some sweetness... Are you still worried about not having a next time?

Jude is bound to be tied to the Time Cult, and the Time Cult... the evil god of the upper king level said that they are very useful.

Sean likes the sustainable way of fishing.

He slowly closed his eyes and filtered the power according to the method in the purification ritual - this is also one of the purposes, let Mr. Governor test whether the purification ritual works.

After a moment, Sean opened his eyes in surprise.

It works!

The ritual of the Time Cult is really useful. He can feel that although the power has been consumed by most of it, the pollution in it has also been purified a lot!

Moreover, due to the huge number of sacrifices, even if there is a lot of consumption, the remaining power is considerable.

Purify a part, leave a part as the price of the fraudulent heart... Sean happily operated.

Matthew, who had been waiting silently, heard a voice in his mind: "Get ready..."

"Yes!"

Matthew immediately looked at Jude: "The Lord's gift is coming!"

Jude, who still held the last bit of doubt, closed his eyes, but soon, he looked at his hands in great surprise.

This is... power!

He barely stepped into the Crimson with the resources of an entire political region and the grace of His Majesty, but over the years, he has not made any progress, but has accumulated a lot of proliferation.

But now, he can clearly feel that his long-unloosed shackles are covered by a huge force!

This cannot allow him to move from the lower level of Crimson to the middle level, but the power of growth is not weak!

If, if he can come a few more times...

In an instant, Jude's doubts about this evil god disappeared.

For the first time, he knelt on the ground with sincere conviction: "Thank you for your gift."

And Sean was also in a good mood. Jude did not turn into a monster, so it was feasible!

He happily accepted most of the remaining power.

Sean, who had just entered the upper level of the king level, could clearly feel that his supernatural powers and mental power were increasing simultaneously.

After all, there were four real Crimsons in the sacrifice. Even if the purification ritual and the cost of fraud consumed most of them, and a small half was given to Jude, the remaining power was enough for Sean to enjoy.

King-level peak!

No water, real king-level peak!

This kind of drastic growth often brings some disadvantages. It is somewhat similar to overdrawing ability. Of course, the user cannot have normal strength.

But, there are too many...

Sean greedily took most of it and stuffed himself full - no matter how much water there was, it was squeezed out.

Even so, there was still a little bit of this power left.

"Matthew..."

Hearing the voice in his mind, Matthew immediately bowed his head devoutly. He was so excited that the great Lord would not forget his most loyal servant!

Sean did not purify the remaining power, but directly threw it to Matthew with the blessing ceremony, and also modified the sacrifice ceremony for him.

Jude looked at Matthew with some envy, but suddenly saw that Matthew's skin seemed to be drilled by countless wriggling worms, and blood vessels, unknown pieces of meat, and strange long hair all wriggled.

However, Matthew opened his hands excitedly. "Lord, great Lord, thank you for your gift!"

The pollution was eroding his spirit and body, and endless pain roared in every corner of his body, but Matthew was only moved.

Sure enough, only the most loyal servants deserve the most intense test!

Moreover, the canon... the most important sacrificial ceremony in the canon has been improved!

This is the truth pointing to the Lord!

He spit out blood, but still kowtowed again and again.

This weird scene made Jude feel cold in his heart, especially the other members of the Time Sect. They were not afraid, but extremely envious.

"This old madman Matthew is not the first time to come into contact with pollution. With his resistance, he should be able to survive the rest..." Sean muttered in his heart.

Matthew did not disappoint him. After a painful roar, his robe was shattered, and two thorny nozzles appeared on his shoulder blades.

"The poison of sin..." Matthew murmured.

Then he knelt down in great joy: "Thank the Lord for the gift! Your loyal and humble servant is willing to give you everything!"

He obtained the rarest little supernatural power in the blessing ceremony!

Jude, who was a little frightened just now, took a breath of cold air. He wanted to take a look at the city wall, but remembered what Matthew said to him-don't look directly at God.

It's really a god...

"Matthew, this old guy is lucky..." Sean didn't expect Matthew to have such a big harvest. He originally thought that he could just fool around.

Anyway, fooling yourself should be the basic skill of every fanatic.

Forget it, it makes me even more great... Sean laughed indifferently.

The time to hide is coming...it's time to slip away.

"You, not bad." He left a vague voice.

Matthew burst into tears, but he also realized that the Lord's will was about to leave.

He hurriedly asked: "Do you have anything else to tell me?"

"Hehe..." Two ambiguous laughs were left in his mind, and then the fluctuations on the city wall disappeared completely.

Matthew immediately led everyone to kneel down: "Farewell to the great Lord."

Jude also kneeled instinctively, and then he saw Matthew slowly retreating to the back and immediately shouted: "Sacrifice, sacrifice!"

An old man immediately ran over.

Is this to remember their Lord's teachings...Jude thought to himself.

After a moment, Matthew turned his head, almost glowing with happiness.

"Mr. Governor, after waiting for twenty-four hours, please dismantle that portion of the city wall and give it to us."

This is not a big deal... After making the promise, Jude asked, "Take it back to commemorate it?"

Matthew's eyes widened: "Of course, the Lord's will has come... I must go back to the place where the Lord first came, and I want everyone to know this big news!"

He grabbed Jude's hand with joy: "The Lord is pleased with you, and my promise is still valid, Mr. Governor."

Instead of refusing like before, Jude just nodded silently after hesitating for a moment.

He couldn't help but look at the city wall.

God...how powerful must he be...

…

"Hair hair hair hair!"

Next to the temporary camp, Sherrill poured a basin of water down, and the fire on Sean's head was extinguished.

He was in a good mood and wanted to light a cigar, but the little Lolita who used to light the cigar couldn't control the amount this time...

Looking at Xiao Ci who timidly pulled at the hem of his clothes, Xiao En roughly grabbed him and rubbed his head: "Next time you burn someone else, don't burn me!"

"oh."

However, should I say it or not, Xiao Ci’s anger is really evil...

He is now at the peak of the king level, and his hair is still as usual, and he wants to use his huge mental power to suppress the flames, so he has to water it.

This little guy is now at the elite level...

Zhu Zhu, who was warming herself by the fire on the other side, was in a bad mood. Her usually lively little face was full of sadness, and even her lively long red hair was a little dull.

Sean handed the food over with a smile, and Zhu Zhu just shook her head: "I can't eat it..."

Sean stuffed it into his mouth unceremoniously and said vaguely: "Your parents are not dead, why are you panicking?"

As soon as he mentioned this, Zhu Zhu's eyes began to turn slightly red: "But that's an imperial prison..."

Taking Zhu Zhu over and placing it on his lap, Sean took advantage as always: "What about the Imperial Prison?"

Zhu Zhu did not pull away Sean's hand, but said in a low mood: "It would be fine if it were in another prison, but if I was imprisoned in Black Pigeon..."

"Black dove?"

Zhu Zhu nodded: "There are several prisons in the imperial capital, but the most terrifying one is the Black Pigeon. It is known as the most heavily guarded prison with the most terrifying system in the world. I have heard that since I was a child, instead of being imprisoned in the Black Pigeon, It’s better to just kneel on the guillotine. Black Pigeon claims that there is a commutation system, but no one has come out since it was established.”

Sean nodded thoughtfully: "It seems to be quite troublesome indeed."

Zhu Zhu turned her head and pursed her lips, looking at him with pitiful and eager eyes: "Sean, help me, help me rescue my parents, okay?"

"Ah? Then how are you going to repay me?"

"W-Anything is fine, Master!"
