Luo Jia stood beside the altar with his hands bowed to the side of the altar along with many others.

During this time, their numbers have grown a little more - not by many, but they are all mid-level positions that look inconspicuous but are very important. Luo Jia never asked why these people joined. Because he has truly seen the divine power of the Supreme Lord. In the face of such a true god, no matter what kind of person will choose to take refuge in the end. In a sense, that's the right thing to do.

In particular, this small altar in the suburbs has also been slightly modified, from the original rough and inconspicuous, to a little bit of grade. At the very least, the ground was paved with a circle of colored masonry.

The priest was on top, reading the yawning-long hymn. On the sidelines, the animals that were about to be sacrificed struggled and writhed.

Eventually, the ritual came to the final stage. The priest walked down and dragged an animal to the center of the colored masonry. The relevant rituals had been seen many times, so Luo Jia didn't feel anything wrong. If I have to say, this sacrifice is relatively large...... I prepared a dozen sacrifices in advance. But at the end of the day, it's just a matter of killing a few animals.

"I sacrifice the flesh and blood of these sacrifices to you...... May your light shine forever on this land!" The priest dug out the heart of the animal and lifted it up to the sky!

"Please shelter me and wait for ......," all believers repeated in unison. Everyone bowed their heads, and no one noticed that the priest's figure shook slightly, and he almost couldn't stand still.

Only he heard the terrifying cries of the gods in the void. "More...... More...... I want more!"

……

It's a canyon. As we all know, the Banshee's Gate is a vast and sparsely populated place, and this kind of barren place can be found everywhere. This area is where the forces of Kecha Goyat and the Stygian Moon camp are at odds. Here, on the other hand, it is a natural canyon that looks like nothing special, with no end in sight.

Hordes of captives are being driven into the canyon.

As in all such cases, the Stygian faction forced the frontline troops to launch an attack with no chance of victory in order to pin down the enemy's frontline forces and prevent them from backing up. It is well known that Kecha Goyat has taken out a lot of exotic weapons in previous battles, and if he attacks before the power of these weapons is properly understood and measured, although the purpose is to contain the enemy, in reality it is simply to send him to death. The battle was unsurprisingly defeated. Many people became captives.

Kecha Goyat had previously shown a rare leniency, and had actually released some of the captives. Perhaps it was this kind of performance that made most of the soldiers of the Dark Moon choose to surrender after encountering a desperate situation. But no one expected that this time the situation was completely different.

Hardly anyone realized that the number of guards at will was small, and that when they came to some invisible border, they stopped moving forward and urged the captives to enter. And when the captives walked in—if they could get to the end—they would find the great stone sculpture at the end of the canyon.

It is not appropriate to say that it is a stone carving, but in fact, it should be said that a rock carving, right in the middle of the cliff, has a relief that symbolizes the sun.

In fact, it was an open-air altar. Directly in front of the relief, a large deep pit was dug. Across the deep pit, there seems to be a passage out of the canyon.

The victim who was herded into the canyon may not have known what was happening at first. On either side are difficult cliffs to climb, and there is only one way to go. Anyone would have thought that if they could climb through this pit, they might be free.

The soil underneath the pit is soft and it is almost impossible to fall to death unless you are a very unlucky type. But the problem is that they only need to stay in there for a little time before they understand that something is wrong. First I felt unwell, inexplicably tired and tired, and then my tongue was swollen. Everyone can feel that the blood is thickening, the circulation is difficult, and the heart is beating slowly and astringently – this is a sign of dehydration. The problem is that dehydration takes a long time to develop, and it doesn't take long for them to enter the canyon.

There were already many corpses lying in the pit. If someone looks at the tragedy of the first comer, they will feel as if all the fears that a person can peep into in their life are unfolding before their eyes at this moment. The people who were in the pit before were no longer human. Their skin was dry and broken, their eyes were shriveled and hung in their sockets, and even their teeth were cracked and bulging outward. Anyone could tell that these people had died for some unknown external cause.

Fear makes people struggle, and they want to escape this death. But from the moment they entered the canyon, their strength was somehow running out rapidly. Some people in the rear noticed some kind of clue and wanted to turn back. But it was useless for them to struggle, to cry, to plead, to beg for mercy. For the Destroyer, this is the command of their Creator. Whatever the reason, it is impossible for them to violate such an order. The Destroyer unceremoniously drove them back and forced them to leave from the other side. And the other end is simply impossible to leave.

On the outside of this altar, or rather, on the peaks on either side of the canyon, a destroyer stood there, looking at the group of sacrifices that had been ushered into the altar below. As mentioned earlier, the Destroyer is actually a locust man in armor in appearance, but this Destroyer can be seen at a glance that it is not ordinary. Not only was his body taller, stout and burly, but the glow of the energy shield on his body was so dense that it didn't look like a layer of liquid.

If Lu Wu was here, he would probably recognize that this was the Zhiguotian who had a relationship with him.

"Don't you think it's a bit too much?" a voice sounded. It was the succubus that Lu Wu had ever seen. The succubus frowned slightly as he looked at the stream of people driven into the canyon at his feet. At this rate, tens of thousands of people would be sacrificed to God in a single day. It's also thanks to them that they came up with such a simple but vicious solution.

"This is God's request!" replied unmoved. "Are you sympathizing with them?"

"Cut...... I'm just ......" the succubus shrugged. "Well, it's kind of pathetic. ”

She turned her head and bowed her head in silent prayer. Then she felt the hungry roar of the gods in the void. "More...... More! Give me more!"

……

Inside the underground city, the Stygian Warlocks quickly sensed that something was wrong.

Before, everyone had noticed a faint white glow from the ground. Of course, as invaders, their first reaction was naturally that the city of Kecha Goyat had activated its defenses against foreign enemies. So, as with all such situations, the Lumancers come together in squads, ready for any kind of blow.

But in fact, nothing happened. There were no automatons spraying deadly bullets or beams, and no hordes of Destroyers charging with their terrifying scythes. The white light didn't look like some kind of attack, it didn't look like some kind of warning, it just made the ground glow.

After a short while, most of the Warlocks remained on the alert. But there were still some warlocks who were curious to cut through the semi-biomass on the ground in order to find the source of the light. Then they discovered that the light did not come from the semi-biomass itself. In fact, it's not clear where it came from. After cutting through this "carpet", you can't find that kind of light.

However, the curiosity was soon dispelled by something else. Even the warlocks have woken up to a terrible thing, and their power is running out. Without using mana, they quickly get tired, and when they use mana, they feel like the magic is passing. It is important to know that mana is similar to physical strength and can be depleted. Warlocks have had enough experience of running out of magic in the process of training and learning. So everyone understands that this rate of passage is not normal. It should be said that it is very abnormal.

It's not just the magic that passes at high speed, but there are other problems. For example, the body feels tired and weak, the wound that was hastily treated before inexplicably splits open and bleed again, and even someone's chronic illness suddenly attacks. I couldn't tell what was going on, but the warlocks naturally surmised that it must have something to do with the white light.

Is it some kind of defense mechanism?

Someone uses magic to lift themselves up off the ground in an attempt to avoid this mysterious power. However, it soon became clear that it was useless.

"Interesting, what is this?" at the edge of the city, Severed Finger also felt it. However, unlike other warlocks, he was more powerful and acute, so he could clearly feel as if something was drawing power from him.

For a warlock, what is absorbed is magic power, and it will not be able to absorb it for a while, at least in the short term, there will be no danger to life. But for ordinary humans, it is estimated that there will soon be very serious consequences under such an attack.

"What is this? Is this your best way to defend yourself? Kecha Goat, but then it is impossible to arrange a defense force in the city!" he chuckled. Although Kecha Goat is wise, he underestimated the power of the warlocks.

"However, although this trick is useful, it does not work. If you do it too early, most of the enemies will not be in range yet. If you do it too late, the enemy will already enter those forbidden areas and be in danger. He looked back, then stepped out of the range of the white light. As expected, the anomaly of the flow of magic was immediately gone.

In this way, this final trick against Kecha Goyat is also very simple.

"Let the soldiers go in and search, and if you feel that your magic power is likely to run out, you can leave the white light area immediately. Severed Finger ordered to his subordinates beside him. This trap will not have a lethal effect on most warlocks, of course, those idiots who can't grasp their own situation, can't leave before they have time to leave, and are sucked dry, and they die when they die, which is not worth regretting.

Below, it's a game of hide and seek. He thought a little playfully, and then turned his thoughts to the girl from before. Well, but it's still Kecha Goyat that takes precedence. Deal with Kecha Goat first, and then slowly clean up the rest......

He walked in, and all of a sudden, a terrible "rumble" was heard. Smoke and dust rose from the top of the entire cavern. Before he could react, a huge stone fell.

In the blink of an eye, the collapsed earth and rocks buried the entire exit.

The severed finger's face is hard to look at. This is clearly not a natural phenomenon, but a deliberate act of Kecha Goyat.

"Cut, can this thing stop the Warlock?" Severed Finger cursed viciously. This kind of collapse will not hurt the warlock, but it is undeniable that it will cause a lot of trouble. This is especially true at this time. Before he had time to think further, he heard the angry shouts of the people around him.

"Commander, no!" shouted his men. "Kecha Goyat has interfered with communications, and we can't contact the Legion now. ”

The severed finger's face is hard to look at. Now his entire legion is scattered throughout the city of Kechagoat, sucking in the face of this strange power...... They don't even know what they don't know about being unaffected by the white light. It turned out that Kecha Goyat had always had the ability to jam communications, but he always kept it, and now he used it.

The surrounding subordinates looked nervously at the commander, waiting for his further orders. What now?, however, Severed Finger's face returned, and he let out a wild laugh. "Original...... I see? It's you, old friend, and you're really ...... this time me!"

In the laughter, there is no anger or unwillingness to be frustrated.
