Chapter 514: Childbirth
Under this circumstance, Lamam, the oldest in the tribe, temporarily stepped forward to maintain order.
The dramatic changes in the world made all the War Ghost tribes panic. This year's Black Mist Season had not yet ended, but the fog on the plains suddenly disappeared. No one could explain all the abnormalities.
Under the leadership of Lamam, the Gaosuo tribe could only seek the guidance of the great blood-killing god through blood-fighting sacrifices.
However, in a few months.
The Gaosuo tribe conducted four blood-fighting sacrifices, but did not receive any response, as if the blood-killing god had abandoned his people, which undoubtedly made the Gaosuo people more panicked.
"Enough! Shut up!"
Suddenly, Lamam paused the bone staff in his hand towards the ground, and then shouted: "The great blood-killing god will never abandon his people, and everyone in the Gaosuo tribe must maintain faith!"
"If anyone questions the great god again, then I will expel the blasphemer from the tribe in the name of the Gaosuo ancestors!"
As Lamam said, the surroundings fell into silence.
The warrior ghosts of the Gosau tribe still had doubts and fears in their hearts, but no one dared to show it at this moment, and could only pray silently.
…
Sulu Plain, Tatar Tribe.
Compared with the oppressive atmosphere of the Gosau tribe, the Tatar tribe was also in a state of panic. As the leader, Drogo prayed to the God of Blood Killing several times, but did not receive any response.
A stone house in the tribe.
In the dark room, Drogo walked back and forth on the ground, with a trace of uneasiness on his resolute face and a flash of impatience in his eyes.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open.
Drogo turned around quickly and looked over. He saw the blood warrior with a lame leg, and Kalu walked in carefully.
"How is it, how is the news?"
Drogo hurriedly stepped forward and asked Kalu.
Kalu shook his head, his face a little gloomy.
"People from our tribe have gone to various tribes in the plains to inquire. All tribes have lost contact with the Bloodthirsty God, even the Gosau people!"
"What? Even the Gosau tribe..."
Drogo was shocked, and a solemn look appeared on his face. As the ruler of the Sollu Plain, the Gosau tribe had the most complete God-given stone tablet in the entire plain, and was the tribe with the best chance of communicating with the Bloodthirsty God.
However, now, even they have lost contact with the Bloodthirsty God.
'Could it be... the Bloodthirsty God has already...'
Drogo quickly suppressed the idea of blasphemy, but this idea grew wildly in his heart like a weed.
"The Solu Plains can no longer contact the Bloodthirsty God."
On the other side, Kalu's face was also extremely pale, as if he was in some kind of fear, and he trembled and said, "The warriors in the tribe have gone outside the plains to see if the tribes in other areas have received guidance from the Bloodthirsty God."
"If not..."
Kalu didn't continue his words. That was already a blasphemy against the gods, something that every War Ghost tribe was unwilling to do. As a race created by the Bloodthirsty God, they must maintain absolute respect for the gods.
Drogo fell silent on the spot.
After a long while, he raised his head and asked hesitantly, "Then...what's the situation over there?"
Kalu lowered his head and knew who Drogo was talking about.
"Since killing Okalen in the Gosau tribe, the 'Apostle' has been hiding in his room and does not allow anyone to approach."
Kalu whispered, with a hint of fear in his tone.
During the Black Mist Season last year, the Bloodthirsty God issued an oracle, declaring Enzo to be his apostle, and the entire Tatar tribe must obey his command, but everything that has happened in recent times has made the Tatar tribe somewhat unsure of how to face this apostle.
The methods Enzo used in the Gossop tribe are exactly the same as those used by the evil.
But after all, he has not done anything to harm the Tatar tribe. Instead, he has been protecting the tribe in recent times. Except for occasionally paying attention to the pregnant Wendy, he has been hiding in that stone house almost all the time.
"Great Bloodthirsty God! How are you?"
Drogo couldn't help but murmur. Losing contact with the Bloodthirsty God made all the War Ghost tribes panic. After the end of the Black Mist Season last year, the world became more and more abnormal.
It's like... the original rules have been overturned.
In the past, when the Black Mist Season of a year ended and the world ushered in the Recovery Season, the power of the Bloodthirsty God would regain control of the earth, and he would give the world various orders as soon as possible, but this year there was no news at all.
The harvest season is coming.
Drogo was even a little unsure whether to hold a celebration this year. According to the tradition of the War Ghost Clan, the celebration before the harvest hunt is to obtain the power and aura bestowed by the God of Blood Killing. However, the God of Blood Killing has lost contact, so it is naturally impossible for him to give anything.
"Continue to observe Enzo and report to me if there is any situation."
Then, Drogo said in a deep voice. Since he lost contact with the God of Blood Killing, Drogo has some doubts about Enzo's attitude, but he dare not make any rash moves.
The reason is also very simple. Enzo is very strong.
Whether he is an evil person or not, the ability to easily kill the furious warrior Okalun makes Drogo unable to face it. He knows very well that as long as he has any intention, he will be easily killed.
Therefore, Drogo can only order people to observe secretly.
Fortunately, his actions did not attract Enzo's attention, and the other party did not notice the surveillance at all.
Uh... maybe.
As Drogo and Kalu finished their conversation, a crow gathered by shadows in the dark corner of the room quietly turned into smoke and disappeared.
...
On the other side of the Tatar tribe.
In the stone house arranged as a laboratory, Enzo was standing in front of a huge test table with concentration, refining potions in an orderly manner with his hands, and a series of processes were carried out like flowing water.
Suddenly, Enzo's heart moved.
Everything that the shadow crow had detected had appeared in his mind. Enzo couldn't help but chuckled and shook his head helplessly.
Enzo had noticed Drogo's surveillance from the beginning.
The other party thought he was flawless, but he really underestimated the wizard's means. The surveillance of the Tatar tribe was extremely poor. After Enzo was promoted to a third-level wizard, his mental power could be extended to the entire tribe.
"Forget it, ignore them."
Enzo shook his head and ignored Drogo and others. The Tatar tribe was just a small tribe, and the most powerful leader was only a first-level life form, which could not pose any threat to him.
Therefore, there was no need to care.
Enzo had spent all his energy on experiments recently. Wendy's delivery date was getting closer and closer, and his plan was almost ready. He could start implementing it today.
"I hope everything goes well."
Enzo murmured to himself and took a deep breath in his heart. Even after countless simulation experiments on the chip, he was still a little nervous as a third-level wizard because it involved his own bloodline life and death.
Afterwards, Enzo put away a series of finished potions in the laboratory.
Turning around and leaving the laboratory, Enzo came to the center of the Tatar tribe. The square where the God-given stone tablet was supposed to stand had been transformed into a courtyard. Dozens of evil ghosts stood guard like soldiers.
Under Enzo's order, no one was allowed to approach here.
Walking straight into the courtyard, Enzo came to a hall. There was a huge stone bed in the spacious space. Wendy, with a big belly, was sleeping on it, and some Tatar women were serving beside her.
"How is Wendy?"
Enzo stepped forward and asked the maid next to him. The Tatar women in the courtyard were all controlled by hypnotic runes, so they were absolutely safe.
"I just took the potion and am sleeping now."
Next to the huge stone bed, the native maid replied that since discovering that Wendy was pregnant with his blood, Enzo ordered his evil ghosts to build this courtyard in the central square. With the help of witchcraft, it was quickly completed.
Since then, Wendy has been resting here.
As time passed, Wendy's belly became bigger and bigger. Relying on the precious potion supplied by Enzo every day, the fetus in her belly barely maintained a trace of vitality, but it was still in a very weak state.
This was also expected.
As a mother, Wendy was too weak to provide enough nutrition for the fetus. She could only rely on magic potions. However, the fusion of the powerful wizard bloodline and the native woman caused the fetus to be in an abnormal state.
"Chip, scan!"
Enzo frowned and ordered in his heart. As a faint blue light appeared in his eyes, the fetus in Wendy's abdomen also appeared in his vision.
It was a cute boy, but very weak.
The vitality was like a candle in the wind, which could be extinguished at any time. Even if a large amount of precious magic potions provided nutrition, it still could not change this situation. If there was no accident, the fetus would inevitably die when the mother gave birth.
"The curse of magic..."
Enzo muttered to himself, his face was a little solemn. It was more like the multiverse than the curse of magic. For the shackles of powerful life, it was always a difficult thing for wizards to obtain healthy offspring.
"It seems that we can only proceed according to the plan!"
On the spot, Enzo took a deep breath, his eyes were dignified, and he waved his hand to signal the native maids in the room to leave, and then began to arrange the barrier.
Runes were carved on the walls around.
The crystals that had long been inlaid on the ceiling were ignited under the guidance of magic. The stimulation of the falling light made Wendy wake up faintly on the stone bed, and a trace of confusion appeared on her pale face.
"Is the child... about to be born?"
Wendy's face showed a strange expression. During the period of time when she was pregnant in the courtyard, she vaguely understood Enzo's identity, so she knew that the child in her belly was very weak. If she wanted him to survive, she had to obey Enzo's arrangements.
Motherhood made Wendy strong.
Even though the fear in her heart almost spread, she still gritted her teeth and insisted. For the birth of the child, even if she paid the price of her life, Wendy was willing.
"Don't worry, Wendy."
Enzo smiled and comforted, "I'm here, and I will never let anything happen to you and the child."
Wendy nodded obediently, and then slowly closed her eyes.
Then, Enzo's eyes gleamed, and under the effect of the hypnotic rune, Wendy fell into a deep sleep. He took a step forward and lifted the animal skin blanket covering Wendy, revealing her bulging belly.
Inside, a fetus was being conceived!
"Huh——"
Enzo took another deep breath. In the decades since he embarked on his wizard journey, he seemed to have not felt this kind of nervous feeling for a long time. The weak little life in Wendy's belly was his first blood descendant.
Therefore, Enzo must ensure that he survives.
Even considering the failure rate of his plan, Enzo also set up another barrier in the room to ensure that even if Wendy and the child died during childbirth, their souls could be preserved.
"It's time to start!"
Enzo's eyes gradually became firm. He took out a few special potions and fed them to the sleeping Wendy. Then he released the magic power in his body and ignited the runes prepared in the room.
Special energy spread around immediately.
Then, Enzo's mind moved, as if he had unlocked some kind of seal. His chest and abdomen suddenly churned, and the tentacles twisted and struggled frantically towards the outside of his body.
"Sealing technique!"
Feeling the pain from his body, Enzo had a blank expression on his face. He took out the talisman prepared in advance from the space ring and began to release the sealing technique.
This witchcraft has no levels.
Strictly speaking, this is not a mystery witchcraft, but a witchcraft method that uses auxiliary materials and a lot of knowledge, which is specifically used to seal powerful creatures.
"Ugh!!"
Suddenly, Enzo retched, and under conscious control, tentacles stretched out from his mouth. The scene was extremely distorted, and thick black mist gushed out.
The next moment, the body of the tentacles also came out.
It was an extremely strange creature with a very distorted shape and a bloated body like an octopus, but it had countless eyeballs, and purple feathers grew out of the spine to form two crow wings.
On the spot, Enzo chanted the spell in a low voice.
Syllables were spit out from his mouth one by one, as if there was some special rhythm. The twisted creature that came out of his mouth waved its tentacles frantically, but under the suppression of the invisible magic around it, it could only be bound in place.
"Don't even think about... sealing me again!!"
A sharp and piercing voice came out of the monster's mouth, and its tentacles with teeth waved wildly, but the two purple wings on his spine quickly folded together, as if suppressing his evil thoughts.
"Next, it's the reincarnation technique!"
The first step had been successfully completed, and Enzo breathed a sigh of relief. Then he released his magic power again, controlling the runes that had been arranged in the room one by one, releasing the reincarnation technique, and forcibly controlling the twisted monster in mid-air.
