Chapter 929: The Sacrifice Under the New Moon

"Come in." As Ruiz opened the teleportation magic array at his feet, the group disappeared on the deck at the same time, and the next moment they all appeared in the valley out of thin air.

The sudden burst of blue magic light disturbed the sacrificial crowd, and they stopped the sacrificial dance and looked at the strange faces that suddenly appeared in disbelief.

Among them are tall beast-headed people, purple-skinned and shirtless monsters, and witches who have been suspended in the air like prophets, which is really terrifying.

Maybe they have forgotten that what they are doing now is even more evil than these vicious people.

Jeno's eyes glowed slightly blue, and he saw that the men were dressed in the clothes of the nomadic tribes, and the animals they had brought were tied to their stakes and formed in a circle. And these people stood in the midst of the animals and danced strangely movements, twisting their limbs strangely, without a sense of rhythm or beauty, and even Orianna danced ten times better than them.

"I am the son of the sun, the great eagle father Azir, please answer my question...... What tribe are you from? Azir leaned on the blade of his staff, looking down condescendingly at several of the believers with an oppressive height.

"Back to Your Majesty, we wander around, from various tribes." A middle-aged man at the head recognized Azir and led the others to their knees.

Jeno had to sigh that Azir's name was so useful in Shurima. He thought that such an abrupt contact would lead to a conflict, and he was even prepared for it.

"Do you know what you're offering to something?" Azir asked.

"We know...... But Your Majesty, allow us to complete the ceremony. The man looked up, his eyes filled with indescribable panic.

"If you know, why do you want to do it!" Azir scolded.

He swung his blade, and a group of sand soldiers rose from behind everyone, the touch of the golden tip of the spear against the neck sent chills down the spine.

"The Prophet said that we would not be able to go back unless the ritual was done properly." The man spoke of the source of his fear, and it seemed that there was another fear that scared them more than the threat from behind.

"What the hell are you afraid of?" Azir asked.

"If we don't finish the ritual of offering cattle before the clouds obscure the crescent, the void will take us with us...... We are afraid that the prophecy will come true, so I beg you, please let us complete the ritual first. ”

The man lay down and kowtowed and cried, the cry made people feel inexplicably flustered, as if there was a fear in people's hearts.

Azir looked back at Jeno, and when he saw that the latter nodded, he withdrew the sand soldiers, allowing them to complete the ritual before interrogation.

Afterwards, several people stood up again and danced the strange and twisted sacrificial dance. And Azir and the others frowned and watched.

"Why let such an evil ritual continue?" Azir questioned Jano.

"You can also see that they don't seem to be followers of the prophet voluntarily, but more like succumbing to some kind of fear that we don't understand. And the prophets had the power to prophesy, and their words carried a lot of weight in the hearts of these people. ”

Azir gave Jano a meaningful look, then stopped talking.

The ceremony was over, but nothing happened, and an impatient Azir immediately stepped forward to question.

"You are all children of the Sun, and since you know the dangers of the Void, why do you want to help him do such a thing?"

The man looked up at Azir, but his eyes were closed, and there was a wet tear trail in the corner of his eye, which had been in tears since the beginning, and the ritual seemed to be done in the closed tear eyes.

Other than that, the others also closed their eyes, silent and lifeless like puppets. Only the man who spoke to Azir was slightly angry.

This made Azir feel even more irritated, and he desperately wanted to know what had scared them like this.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for granting our impudent request. Some fanatically followed the Prophet, but others were forced to submit to him by threats. A dazzling gaze like the sun shone straight through, and the man trembled with fright, adding, "Several of us belong to the latter." ”

"Why don't you open your eyes and look at me?" Azir rebuked.

"Your Majesty's light is too dazzling for us to look at it directly." The man replied with a sincere fear, but Azir wasn't here to listen to sycophants.

"How did he threaten you?" He asked.

Speaking of this topic, the man suddenly shuddered, as if recalling the deepest fear of his memory.

"He possesses a terrifying power that can tear the earth apart and summon nightmarish creatures that will devour anyone who dares to defy him."

"Can't you run if you can't beat it?"

"I can't run." The man replied with a sad face, in a tone full of despair: "He has the ability to foresee everything, and he can always find the place of those who have fled." After finding them, he would use his empty eyes to make the fugitives feel a ferocious illusion and grab his heart, and fear grew in fear. ”

Azir subconsciously glanced at Jano again, and so far, what he said has been verified.

"Is it true that rumors of people gladly offering themselves as living sacrifices to the invisible forces?" Azir asked again, sacrificing the living, which had touched his bottom line.

"It's true!" The man replied excitedly, as if he had found a savior. "These are the destinations of those fanatics, whom the Prophet brainwashed into becoming his fanatics, and we are careful to fulfill his every request, just to avoid the same fate from befalling us."

Because of his anger, Azir didn't notice that the man was rubbing his teary eyes desperately with his head down, as if he was going to hollow out his eye sockets.

"Tell me where he is!" Azir clenched his fists, his voice high.

Taking his people to sacrifice to the living, this kind of anti-human cult has no soil for survival in Shurima, and he must break the corpse of the prophet who dominates everything in that song!

"He's ......" the man stopped talking, his voice suddenly bewildered.

He lowered his hands and raised his head, slowly opening his eyelids, revealing the pair of empty eyes underneath. A strange purple glimmer shot out of those eyes, causing a sting sensation on the hard face under Azel's helmet.

"He's right in front of your eyes...... Look at you. An ethereal whisper came from the man's mouth.

"He's controlled by an illusion! Don't look him in the eye! Jeno reminded him from behind, and Azir roared, his eyes bursting with light that could melt through the golden stone, and he kicked out with all his might, kicking the man to the ground.

The man's chest was pierced by Azir's claws through five bloody holes, collapsing into the ribcage in a terrible way, and sticking to the spine. But instead of dying, he squeezed out a sentence with his blood-foaming mouth.

"Embrace the Void......"

As soon as he finished speaking, the earth began to tremble violently.
