Chapter 116: The Living Sacrifice
At this moment, Kratos, who had been motionless, suddenly opened his eyes, and his body vibrated continuously and drummed out a powerful force, sweeping the surrounding sea water out of the swirling flow, and more than a dozen sirens could not break free at all, and were instantly carried away by the strong current, constantly emitting piercing screams in the rotation.
At this time, the huge carapace had sunk into the mist, it was originally a body that had been destroyed in consciousness, and it was occupied by Kratos to be able to move as usual, and now it has completely lost its last support, like garbage slowly sinking into the depths of the endless sea.
"Despicable monsters, in this twisting current, feel the pain of your body being crushed little by little!"
Kratos plundered Hercules' supernatural powers, and his qi and blood broke through the limits of human beings, reaching the level of 10,000 qi and blood, and his huge strength was able to smash mountains and stir up the waves. These sirens, whose physical strength is only about 100 horsepower, are simply ants who can't even struggle under him.
A dozen ordinary sirens did not struggle for long, and under the squeeze of the violent current, they all turned into sticky flesh, and the shattered flesh and bones were dyed bright red by the sea, and finally only the leader of the sirens stood there trembling, letting the sea water envelop the corpses wash over his body.
The Siren leader was not lucky to have survived, but was about to endure even more terrible pain, and when the black aura of the power of nightmares invaded its body, it immediately screamed in pain.
"Human beings, you dare to blaspheme your soul, this is a sin that cannot be forgiven by the gods!"
After the siren leader let out a terrible scream before dying, his consciousness was shattered by Kratos's violent impact, and all the fragments of his life's memories were stripped away, and finally became a lifeless shell.
Kratos threw the fragment of memory stripped from the siren leader into the body of the Blood Bear Beast Soul, and then clenched his hand into a fist to blast the corpse, summoning the five-headed snake beast soul to devour all the corpse essence and blood mixed in the seawater, and then quickly disappeared into the fog after roughly identifying the direction.
In a sea shrouded in mist, there was an island like a lighthouse, alone in the sea, and the surrounding fog seemed to be blocked by an invisible force, and it could not invade the island in the slightest.
At this moment, at the edge of the island, separated from the shore of the Misty Fog, dozens of humans had gathered, civilians from several nearby human villages.
The civilians had built a huge wooden platform on the seashore, and on top of this platform were several huge cages, which were actually holding dozens of living humans.
Although the human beings in the cage had a sad face of despair, none of them cried for help, because they knew that this was the curse of the island, and only by sacrificing themselves to the monsters in the sea could all the humans living on the edge of the island have the possibility of survival.
"Elder, let's take up arms and fight those ugly monsters, even if we sacrifice so many companions, they will not be satisfied, and more people will die for this in the future!"
A young man with a childish spirit and eyes full of determination stopped in front of the cage and shouted loudly to an old man in front of him.
When they heard the righteous words of this young man, the eyes of the people in the cage couldn't help but show a hint of hope, but the thought of the resistance of human beings who had been slaughtered again and again for hundreds of years immediately dimmed.
The old man, known as the Elder, raised his cloudy eyes, glanced at the young man slowly, and then said in an old voice, "Gaunt, stand down." As someone who is worthy of surviving, you should be thankful for this and pray to the Cult of God that protects this Pure Land from the undispersed mist. ”
Hearing the name of the Divine Sect, the young man's eyes couldn't help but flicker a little wavering, but he quickly regained his firmness, and the light of hatred bloomed: "I would rather not have this undignified life in exchange for the lives of my relatives and companions, one day, I will kill all those ugly monsters that killed my relatives!"
The enraged boy named Gonter was quickly dragged down by several strong adults, and no matter how much Gonter yelled, he could not stop the live sacrifice.
Under the auspices of the Elders, several cages holding humans were pushed to the edge of the platform, and at the lower end of the volley platform was the raging Endless Sea, from which any behemoth could smash the sacrifice and the platform together.
A man who was used as a sacrifice was the first to be pushed out, and the sharpened stone knife made deep marks on several parts of his body, thick blood gushed out of it, and as soon as it dripped into the sea, it was washed away by the rolling waves, but the meager smell of blood had been captured by the monsters hovering nearby, and the waves on the sea surface became more violent in an instant.
Seeing the change in the heavens and the earth, a look of fear appeared on everyone's faces, and they left behind the sacrifices that had been placed on the platform and fled in the direction of the inland, as if something terrifying was about to appear.
Bang!
The tumbling sea suddenly exploded, and a large amount of seawater was lifted into the sky, forming bean-sized droplets pouring down, smashing people's skin with bursts of pain.
What's even more terrifying is that I don't know when, a humanoid monster with a hideous face and a huge body, with a pair of eyes like a toad, looked greedily at the living sacrifice in the cage.
"Pelidon!"
Seeing the appearance of the monster that killed his loved one, the young man named Gaunt was so angry that he almost crushed his gums, he suddenly broke free from the restraint of the adult next to him, and rushed towards the platform, but immediately faced a vicious wind rolled up by the monster, and he was knocked to the ground before he could take two steps.
Gaunt looked at the behemoth in front of him, his hands and feet trembling uncontrollably, as if he was not feeling well, no matter how he screamed in his heart, he couldn't move.
The gap between ordinary humans and monsters is immeasurable, even the most elite soldiers cannot slaughter monsters alone, only by being favored by the gods, or dedicating their faith to more powerful aliens, it is possible to gain the power to rival monsters.
This monster called Pelidon, with a strength of about 500 horsepower, is so powerful that it can stir up the waves, and ordinary hundred-person enemy powerhouses, even if they lead elite soldiers to form a battle formation, they can't match it in the sea.
Pelidon is also notorious in the Endless Sea, an extreme monster that feeds only on humans. No one knows what Peliton is, and every time he devours a human, he can change his body, and legend has it that when he devours enough of them, he can completely transform into a human.
Pelidon leaned his body against the cliff wall, and with one hand he picked up the dying human after his throat was cut, and the bulging Adam's apple slid up and down, throwing it directly into the bloody mouth.
Pelidon was not in a hurry, but put the human in his mouth and chewed it vigorously, and kept making the sound of bones shattering, and saliva mixed with blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth, and the greedy look in his ugly eyes became even more intense.
"Kill...... I'll kill you. Gaunt saw the cruel scene, and the scene of his parents' tragic death came back to his mind, and a fierce hatred filled his chest.
"Revenge...... I want power, as long as I have enough power, I am willing to throw everything I have!"
Vengeful rage broke through the shackles of fear, and when control of his body was restored, Gaunt immediately rose from the ground and staggered towards Pellidon, who was extending his claws towards the first cage.
At this time, Gaunt had only one thought in his heart, and that was to kill the monster in front of him and avenge his parents.
Mutter......
As if sensing his killing intent, Pelidon suddenly raised his head, and when he saw the weak figure gradually approaching, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a mocking expression that resembled a human, and the belly breath submerged in the sea water churned, and an earth-shattering roar erupted from its bloody mouth.
Gaunt only felt a fishy wind coming over the world, and his fragile body could not be controlled at all, like a wisp of grass roots flying upside down, his body rolling on the gravel floor, and his head was hit with a shocking wound.
Click!
Pelidon's huge palm kneaded at will, and he saw that Gaunt's weak legs were directly pinched into flesh, and the broken bone residue was mixed with blood and flowed out.
The pain was so intense that Gaunt almost snapped his tongue off, but his consciousness was crystal clear, supported by the flames of vengeance, and no matter how the pain washed over his consciousness, he remained steadfast in not fainting.
Coo-goo-goo...... Goo-goo!
Pelidon's mouth kept letting out strange roars, and judging by its ugly expression, it seemed to mock Gaunt's incompetence.
After crushing Gaunt's arm in the same way, Pellidon was finally satisfied, and he was impatient, so he grabbed a cage with his claws.
Click!
With just a slight exertion, the wooden cage was crushed, and the dozen or so humans locked inside couldn't help but let out a cry of fear.
There was a cruel glint in Pelidon's eyes, and the claws of the devil snapped together, and the cries of the humans immediately stopped abruptly, replaced by the sound of bones shattering and the sound of human bodies being squeezed.
Peliton seemed to enjoy the process of killing humans, and little by little, he let go of his power to crush the corpses of a dozen humans to flesh.
The long barbed tongue licked the blood and debris from between the fingers along the wrist, and then put the lump of flesh in his mouth, which was no longer visible, and chewed it with relish for a long time before swallowing it into his stomach.
Pelidon's cruelty terrified all the civilians present, and they trembled as they watched the monsters devour their own kind, their minds blanked, and their hearts did not have the slightest courage to resist.
