172 Altar
Kevin was woken up by a gust of cold wind, and when he came back to his senses, he saw Du Yuhan's worried face at first glance. "Huh?"
"Are you alright?" Du Yuhan looked up and down nervously.
"Me? It's okay. Kevin blinked inexplicably, "What's wrong?" ”
Seeing that the other party's expression was the same, Du Yuhan relaxed slightly, "You just seem to have hit an evil spirit." ”
"Hit the devil?" Kevin was stunned.
As he entered the cave, he was struck by the sight before him. Those spots of light seem to be conscious, and they change into various pictures, which dazzle people and are fascinated by them unconsciously.
For a moment, he felt as if he was soaking in warm water, feeling very comfortable, as if he was going to fall asleep the next moment. Suddenly, a cold wind blew, and he woke up from a cold spirit.
Hearing this, Du Yuhan's expression was dazed.
The other party's expression just now was weird, and it didn't look like a normal mental state at all. If he wasn't around, wouldn't Kevin be trapped here? I thought it was just an ordinary spar, but I didn't think it would have the magic power to confuse people's minds.
After listening to Du Yuhan's words, Kevin's expression was extremely serious.
To control a sixth-order professional in an instant, and a holy priest who is also famous for his spiritual strength, the spiritual power required for him is definitely not half a star. Combined with the growth environment of the Frost Stone, it shows that there must be a powerful energy buried here.
"We have to be careful, there's something weird about this place."
"Hmm." Du Yuhan stirred up his fighting spirit slightly, and led Kevin to the blood-colored rune, "Look at this." ”
Kevin picked up a stone chip and looked at it carefully, then checked his surroundings, and muttered to himself with a frown.
"Strange ......"
"What's wrong?"
"It's an altar."
"Altar?" Du Yuhan looked down at the stone flakes on the ground again, and twitched the corners of his mouth.
The altar in his memory, if not as magnificent as the Temple of Heaven, was made of many stones, with animal bones nearby, and inexhaustible torches, and a few feathers hanging down? Well, even if there aren't that many things, there's always a sacrificial offering, right?
But this kind of use of a few stone pieces to piece together an incomprehensible symbol on the ground can also be called an altar?
How shabby this god is!
Seeing Du Yuhan's suspicions, Kevin smiled and said, "This way of arranging the formation is indeed an ancient sacrificial ritual. ”
A long time ago, when people's living standards were still at a very low level, they used some simple but symbolic symbols to set up altars to seek the blessing of the gods. The main difference between this kind of altar and the current one is that the ordinary altar is only to thank the gods for their protection, and this kind of altar is more focused on the descent of the gods.
"God's Arrival?" Du Yuhan looked blindfolded.
"You can also interpret it as praying for the gods to come." Kevin changed his words.
Although he is extremely skeptical about whether there are really gods, this does not prevent Du Yuhan from making rich associations with gods and "possession".
He immediately made up an elderly man with a golden gossip in his left hand, a linen banner of "Blind and Half Immortal" in his right hand, and a small round sunglasses. He grinned, showing a mouthful of yellow teeth, and the long hair on the mole on his chin shook and trembled.
"Handsome guy, this half-immortal saw that you were destined to commit the Peach Blossom Tribulation today!"
Du Yuhan: ......
Unaware that his lover was having a hot fight with Mr. Demi-Immortal, Kevin frowned slightly, "But why doesn't this altar have a place to place sacrifices?" ”
"Sacrifices?" Sacrifices to the gods are made at the cost of offering gifts. People can bow down and prostrate to the gods, and they can burn incense and paper, but the most affordable way for the gods to sacrifice is to offer sacrifices.
Recalling that when the tomb was swept in the past, the hometown would always kill chickens and cattle to commemorate the ancestors, which shows the important position of the sacrifice in the entire sacrificial ceremony.
The more powerful the god, the more sacrifices he has to offer. Judging by the scale of this altar, it is definitely a great deity. But there is no trace of sacrifice on this altar, which is really strange.
Du Yuhan touched his chin.
A sacrificial ritual without sacrifices?
Or is it that the sacrifice has not yet begun?
If Bane had been here before, it was most likely that the altar was the main cause of his anomaly. In this way, as long as you can figure out the owner of the altar, you can find out who is behind the scenes.
"Kevin, can you tell which god this is dedicated to?"
Kevin smiled slightly, looking at Du Yuhan with a smile.
"Do you need to ask?"
Du Yuhan was stunned, and his eyes widened.
"Shadow God?"
"That's right, it's the Demon God."
Suddenly, a shrill female voice echoed in the empty cavern. The next moment, the wind in the cave was blowing sand and rocks.
Airplanes! ——
There was a sound of spells breaking through the sky in the distance, and Du Yuhan was shocked, grabbed Kevin and rushed forward. A purple-black lightning bolt grazed his back, and the ground exploded with a loud bang.
"Boom! ——”
When the sand and dust calmed down a little, the two of them climbed up and put on a fighting posture. Kevin checked up and down for the first time, and saw that Du Yuhan was not injured, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
didn't have time to ignore Kevin's reproachful gaze, Du Yuhan looked up and saw that the position where they were standing was smashed out of a big hole.
He swallowed hard.
Depend on! If you hadn't dodged just now, you would have been useless if you didn't die.
At the same time, as if affected by an external magnetic field, the crystals on the cave walls darkened in the instant of the spell exploding. The next moment, dots of light ions lingered on the rock face. In a few moments, beams of light swam rapidly among the crystal clusters, shimmering with colorful brilliance.
At the same time, the stone chips on the ground flashed with a crimson light, and the whole space became unpredictable.
Du Yuhan's eyes tightened, and he violently aroused his fighting spirit, and the bracelet on his left wrist burned and shiny, and instantly pulled out a huge white mold. At the moment when he took out the Yuan Zhu, a powerful shockwave hit him head-on, and the whole person was knocked out after he was stunned.
"Squeak!"
"Han!" Kevin quickly pinched his fingers, and a thin milky white shield wrapped Du Yuhan up.
"Bang! ——”
"Hmm!" Even with spell protection, Du Yuhan was still knocked to the ground, and the newly formed white mold was also shattered.
it! It hurts to death! He slowed down for a moment before struggling to straighten up. Reaching out to the back of his head, it was warm.
The anxious Kevin was about to go up to check the injury, but at the moment of taking a step, he suddenly saw a flower in front of him and fell to the ground with a thud. He tried to brace himself, but his body seemed to be filled with lead, so heavy that he couldn't lift a finger.
Kevin was stunned, and opened his lips to chant a mantra, but he couldn't pronounce a syllable.
His heart sank.
Oh no, Earth Binding.
Earthbinding, the simplest control magic in the Shadow system. Not only does it make the caster unmoved, but it also temporarily loses the ability to speak. Unexpectedly, he was hit by the lowest level of shadow spells, Kevin bit his lower lip and turned white, and could only watch Du Yuhan fight alone.
Just as the two of them were distracted, the speed of the streamer on the cave wall gradually slowed down, and a fishy wind suddenly blew from the other end of the altar. In a few breaths, a beautiful curly-haired beauty with a beautiful figure slowly floated down from mid-air.
Du Yuhan looked at it, and it was as expected.
"Delphicy." He tensed his face.
Contrary to the usual style, Dai Li only painted a light makeup on her face, but she still couldn't hide her mental exhaustion. I saw that she was wearing a pure black feather one-piece dress, the long skirt dragged all the way to the heels, and the whole person looked solemn and solemn. Three crystal balls of different colors float in the palm of his right hand, and blue-purple shadow elements swirl around them.
She gently hooked the shredded hair on her forehead behind her ears and curled the corners of her mouth slightly.
"Your Excellency Modeler, don't come unharmed."
"Sure enough, it's you." Du Yuhan narrowed his eyes, "David didn't guess wrong, all this is your ghost." ”
"Hmph, I knew that imp was going to ask you for help." With a cold snort, Dai Li raised her eyebrows disdainfully, "But what if you know, as far as his ability is concerned, he can only make small moves and delay time." ”
"So you're in control of Bane's behavior?" While speaking, Du Yuhan glanced to the side without a trace. Seeing that Kevin was lying on the ground, he didn't seem to be injured, and he was relieved.
"I control him? Scold. As if hearing some joke, Dai Li covered her mouth and smiled, "Although the mental control of shadow magic is very powerful, I am still very self-aware to attack a high-level model master. Are you right? My dear husband? ”
What the?
"If you dare to call me that next time, I'll gladly let your soul go up in smoke." Under their surprised gazes, accompanied by a disgruntled tone, Bane walked slowly from the shadows opposite. He glanced at Dai Li, and then turned his gaze to Du Yuhan.
A fierce gleam flashed in Dai Li's eyes, but for some reason, she only smiled slightly and did not get angry.
Looking at the back of Bane's faint neck, Du Yuhan looked extremely serious.
The middle-aged man with a cold face in front of him removed his gentle and polite disguise, revealing his original face. This is not the regent himself, but the manipulator behind the scenes.
As they had previously speculated, the high-level modeler and Dai Li not only knew each other, but also worked together. Although I don't know what their purpose is, judging from the current posture, it is definitely not a good thing to maintain world peace.
It's enough to deal with just one high-level modeler, and now there's a shadow mage, and his greatest help has fallen to the ground.
Du Yuhan tightened his brows.
When his gaze touched the fried dog on the top of his head, Bane's pupils shrank, and his eyes showed surprise, anger, and a very strange emotion. His cheeks twitched, and he couldn't help but mumble to himself.
"Sure enough, sure enough, it's your ......"
