In Lin An's eyes, Mourinho is also one of the passers-by.

She noticed that the other party's attitude had changed somewhat, but she didn't care, and after greeting the other masters who had come over in a hurry, she directly asked to see the Shadow Stone.

This, of course, will not be hindered.

The Shadow Stone is activated, and a fragment of only two breaths is transmitted from above, revealing a scene that looks like hell.

Only a dozen demon corpses were seen in the clip.

They fell in the flesh of their flesh, all facing each other, their bruised bodies and pools of blood beneath them showing that they had experienced a fierce battle, their painful and twisted faces showing that they had been brutally tortured before they died, and each demon seemed to hold some piece of flesh in its bloody claws.

The most puzzling and terrifying thing is that there is still a trace of relief in their last bitter and hideous expressions, as if they are carrying out a mysterious and terrifying sacrifice, which makes people involuntarily rise from their backs when they see it.

Everyone present had been on the battlefield, and had seen a large number of severed limbs and stumps, mages like Lin An, and even dissected many corpses in order to understand the structure of the human body, and it was almost impossible for anything to scare them.

But the horror of this projection is not in the bloody brutality, but in the chilling and eerie atmosphere.

Lin An was also attracted by the strange atmosphere at first, and when he watched it for the second and third times, he focused his attention on the details of the scene where the demon clan was sacrificed.

After reading it four or five times, Master Biyulai shook his head and hissed:

"The projection is too brief, and more information is needed to figure out what kind of blood sacrifice this is."

She and everyone looked at Lin An.

The latter was still replaying the photo repeatedly, and seemed to see something, and suddenly sighed, and his face changed drastically.

Everyone's eyes were drawn to it, and Master Beyolai asked:

"Master Lin, do you see something?"

"I recognized half of the symbol in the pool of blood, which ...... It's like a blood sacrifice of despair! ”

"Desperate Blood Sacrifice?!" Several archmages whispered, "Impossible, isn't this an active sacrifice?" ”

This was a complete departure from their hypothetical curse sacrifice.

The process of blood sacrifice in despair is extremely painful, causing the sacrifice to suffer the most desperate torture and pain before death, and the sacrifice is the soul that has been tortured and departed, even the most crazy cultists will not sacrifice themselves in this way.

"It can't be!" A strange archmage said, "No matter how loyal these demons are to the demon king, it is impossible for them to take the initiative to carry out the desperate blood sacrifice. ”

"They didn't offer sacrifices." Lin An said in a deep voice, "As for whether it is a desperate blood sacrifice, just go and see for yourself." ”

It wasn't surprising that everyone couldn't think of it, they didn't know that the Deep Blue God had put a bait in.

Lin An actually has six or seven percent certainty in his heart, but he only needs the final verification.

"No, such an evil blood sacrifice is not trivial, if it is accidentally touched and causes irreparable consequences, who will bear it?"

This time, it was the turn of a senior general.

"I'm solely responsible." Lin An said without hesitation.

Lin An came on behalf of the emperor, and the status of the chief elder of the Royal Secret Law Order was high enough, the general pursed his lips, looking very disapproving, but Marshal Hagus had already left at this time, and the general exchanged glances with other colleagues, and he stopped talking and closed his mouth very unwillingly.

Ranster, who had not made a sound, frowned.

This general was the man of Field Marshal Haegers.

As soon as he opened his mouth, Lancet realized that this was Marshal Hagus's instructions, and he had planned to push the matter onto Lin An.

However, his position was sensitive and it was not appropriate to speak, so he glanced at Lin An worriedly.

Lin An noticed it and nodded slightly to him, indicating that he knew what he knew.

She had long seen the prevarication of Marshal Hagus, who was better than the ability to command the army, and she was too lazy to deal with the other party.

And so it was settled.

To enter the underground in person, of course, the candidate is not only Lin An.

Lin An thought about it for a while, and let Master Buyulai stay outside and act flexibly, while she went underground with Master Mourinho, Master Connery, who had spoken earlier, Robert Juggernaut, and another strange Crow Juggernaut.

Since Lin An said that he was fully responsible, this line was naturally headed by Lin An, but no one competed with her.

The efficiency of the crowd is okay, but the back and forth of discussing the candidates will inevitably delay some time.

Lin An couldn't wait, and had already instructed Titi and William to use the shadows to shuttle away and explore the way first.

The underground route of the Ice Valley is complicated, but after the extraordinary power that shielded the royal court before is gone, the remaining route problem is of course difficult for William, who has a keen sense of smell.

When Lin An and his party entered the underground, Titi and the others also happened to find a safe route commonly used by demons, and Titi informed Lin An with a telepathic transmission.

The protection of the Ice Plains Demon Clan's royal court is really thorough, there are many forks and dead ends along the way, and if there is no Lin An to guide the way, the group will waste a lot of time on the road.

Because Lin An always chose the right path at the fork in the road, the group did not encounter any dangers and traps.

Although the others were puzzled, Lin An didn't say it, and it was inconvenient for them to ask, but the atmosphere was a little strange along the way.

After walking for nearly seventy or eighty miles in zigzags and twists, entering the underground at least twenty or thirty miles away from the ground, Lin An and the others finally came to a huge underground space.

As the royal court of the Ice Plains Demon Clan, the spark in this underground space was larger than that of any previous settlement, hanging on the top like a small sun, illuminating this underground space with a radius of at least twenty or thirty miles.

The space is huge and majestic, with an unadorned quaint aesthetic.

There were huge statues of gods carved on the walls of the cave on all sides, and the demon gods who couldn't see their faces clearly looked down, and the height of a person was only as high as the toes of the demon god statues.

This kind of man-made miracle was shocking, and when Lin An and the others appeared from a hole near the ground, no one bothered to look at it.

A hell more real than a photograph appeared before their eyes.

"What a grudge!"

"If these grievances are just remnants of the blood sacrifice ritual, then how strong will the resentment generated during the blood sacrifice be!"

Mourinho and Master Connelly whispered.

The archmage's perception was very strong, they opened the Eye of Spiritual Vision when they were half a mile away from the entrance of the cave, and the Golden Sword Master also had his own method, dropping two drops of potion in his eye, and he saw that there were wisps of gray-black resentment in the air like smoke and mist.

When ordinary people or low-level professionals come into contact with such a strong grievance, they will hallucinate at least and their minds will be confused and even go crazy.

But this naturally couldn't affect Lin An and the others, their will was enough to temporarily immune to the influence of these grievances, and they deliberately did not cast spells and stimulate the aura of fighting spirit, so as to avoid touching the resentment and triggering unexpected reactions.

Of course, it won't work for a long time, and they dare to do this because there are no evil spirits in their grievances.

The crowd dispersed to the edge of the Blood Sacrifice Circle.

Seeing the scene in person, even the archmages who were used to dissecting corpses had the desire to retch, and goosebumps kept popping up.

The impact of a dozen dead corpses and thousands of dead corpses is by no means a grade.

Fortunately, everyone was mentally prepared, and after relieving, experience and observation immediately came into play.

"Sure enough, there are such a thick remnants of resentment, but there are no remnants of souls and dead souls." Robert Juggernaut said.

"It seems that Master Lin is right, this is really a desperate sacrifice."

After wiping away the blood stains that had congealed on the ground and looking at the sacrificial runes below, Master Connery, who had doubts about Lin An's judgment before, had to admit.

Mourinho pointed to the bloody altar made of the severed arm and stump in the middle:

"There seems to be a demon on the altar, is it the king of the demon race?"

"It should be, do you want to go and see it?" After Master Connery finished speaking, he was about to move.

"Wait, don't move yet!"

Lin An stopped, and his gaze swept to the Chloe Sword Saint who had not spoken.

A black streak appeared in the middle of the latter's forehead without warning, and he didn't even have time to stimulate his fighting spirit, and he fell to the ground with a bang, and a trace of blood oozed from the wound.

"Chloe!"

"Master Lin! You ......"

After the masters were stunned for a short time, their rich combat experience immediately caused them to react, activating the Protective Body Enchantment and Fighting Qi Aura, leaving the range of the Blood Sacrifice Array, and taking a few steps backwards in the direction of the cave entrance, their eyes wandering over the corpses of Lin An and Chloe Sword Saint, and they were both wary.

"He's a fake."

Lin An had already activated several layers of enchantments, and said calmly:

"I don't know when the Crowe Sword Master was replaced, but he was an illusion."

As soon as her words fell, several people heard a low-magnetic female voice whispering softly, and the corpse of Chloe Sword Saint on the ground disappeared instantly.

Rumble!

[Remove Invisibility], [Shock Orb], [Flame Slash]...... Several spells and fighting qi attacks hit the location where the female voice came from at the same time, and a large pit appeared at the landing point!

"Hehehehehe......"

But the imaginary enemy did not appear, but there was a ubiquitous chuckle all around, and there was an indescribable charm in the low magnetism.

"Be careful, this laughter will distract us." Mourinho said in a deep voice.

Aware of the illusion, they didn't even realize when they had been tricked, so the crowd didn't try to come together:

A true illusion master can turn the environment, his companions, and even his own weapons into a weapon to kill the magician, and after realizing that he has been hit by an illusion, it is the most important and difficult to confirm whether the environment and his companions are real.

"Hehehehehe......"

The voice of the soul demon gradually changed from subtle to loud, and everyone didn't know what the illusion master hidden in the shadows was going to do, but they knew that they couldn't let the situation continue to be in the hands of the other party.

Lin An had been silent, actually silently casting spells, until an invisible sonic bead condensed from his fingertips, and the spell formed to leak out the fluctuations.

At this time, the illusion master who was hiding in the shadows had no time to stop it, Lin An chuckled, pointed his finger, and threw the sonic bead towards the altar in the middle of the blood sacrifice circle!
