Chapter 150: The Bloody Abundance Sacrifice
Magda's sudden arrival has led to a sudden increase in the strength of the Cult of the True God in King's Port.
She used a special method that was extremely costly, using the Phantom Palace strongholds of the True God Cult hidden in the deceptive space, to bring a lot of reinforcements from the side of Kagestan.
These reinforcements included 600 sacrificially qualified human corpses and five Hellcultists collected from all over Kaigistan......
At the same time, Magda herself descended on this stronghold through the commonality of the deceptive space, of course, this is a very costly way to do this, it is a special method in case of emergency, and cannot be used as a regular mode of transportation.
She was not executing anyone, except for executing the priest Benson to make an example, but sent them all out to build the new sub-altar herself.
As for the location of this sub-altar......
When the True God Cult followed Magda to their destination, they were immediately stunned by Magda's generosity.
It turned out that this witch actually chose the location of the new sub-altar to be built in the manor of the Joshua family in the aristocratic district!
During the festival on the day of the Fertility Festival, the Joshua family, as one of the three old nobles of King's Port, naturally had to assume the responsibility of the core of the aristocratic faction at the moment when the Marjery family was gradually declining.
So, there will definitely be many, many people at the banquet they are hosting.
These people are all nobles and important ministers of the kingdom in King's Harbor, and if they are directly served in a pot during the Evil Blood Sacrifice, you can imagine what will happen to King's Harbor soon......
And because of Magda's existence, the people of the Joshua family didn't notice it at all when they set up the sub-altar, after all, the Joshua family was just like the Magery family, just a civilian family, and there were not many professionals in the clan, and there was only one ancestor Anthony Joshua who could get his hands on it.
This is much less risky than going to the Frank family manor to set up a sub-altar, which is not only closer to the royal palace, but also the Frank family manor, which is a professional family, is certainly not so easy to enter.
The main thing is that the Frank family basically goes to command the army in King's Harbor on the day of the Fertility Festival, and there are not many people left in their manor by then, so it is both difficult and thankless to arrange there......
In addition to the Frank family, the Marjery family has also not gathered much popularity due to its decline, so apart from the obvious locations in the city, only the Joshua family can meet the requirements of maximizing the use of sacrifices.
So, at midnight before the Feast of Plenty, Magda used illusions to sneak into the Joshua family's manor, digging a very deep hole in the flat grass in front of the manor, where the open-air feast was to be held, and then shoved a deadly cannon under Anthony Joshua's nose under their butts......
At the same time, Xue Hua and the large-scale investigation of the insect swarm did not receive any happy results.
Those sub-altars were indeed too deeply hidden, and their time was too short to find out those sub-altars one by one without knowing the exact location.
Being able to eliminate three in such a short period of time is already a fluke within a fluke.
Seeing that the sky in the distance had begun to brighten, Xue Hua had no choice but to shake his head helplessly and end the search work.
He'd moved all the swarms out of King's Harbor, lest the time actually make those guys start the Blood Ritual and send them some unnecessary heads.
Xue Hua then rushed back to the embassy headquarters exhausted, and met Kane in the room, who had been waiting for his return.
"How's it going, did you find those sub-altars?"
"Alas... I found three, but I don't know how many ...... are left."
"Three... If it's three, it's dangerous! Kane let out a long sigh, he knew that Xue Hua had done his best.
"I know, but these things are too hidden, and I can't look for them in the aristocratic district, in case I alarm those who want to coup d'Γ©tat, and things will go out of here."
Xue Hua took the cup full of fragrant fruit syrup on the table and poured a big sip, then looked at Kane and asked, "Old man, how are you over there?" β
"Alas... It was basically a completely failed meeting, and Wood VI's trust in the legendary mage was too high for us to prove, and Ekery's words alone could not break that trust.
As for the postponement of the Offering of Abundance... Alas! Don't mention it! β
"So what should we do now, do we want to quietly evacuate the people in the city?"
Xue Hua asked anxiously.
"No, there's too much movement, and there's not enough time." Kane shook his head and rejected the suggestion.
"Then you can't watch the True God Cult's plan succeed!"
"......" Kane wordlessly lowered his head and pondered for a while, then raised his head to look at Xue Hua.
"Now it seems that we can only die to protect Wood VI!"
"One of the necessary conditions for the successful launch of the Blood Sacrifice is the heart of the king and the soul of the king, and those guys who arranged a legendary mage next to Wood VI must have wanted to kill Wood VI and sacrifice his heart and soul.
Therefore, we must ensure the absolute safety of Wood VI when the plans of the True God are launched, and must not give them the slightest chance to complete the ritual of the main altar! β
Kane looked at Xue Hua and said categorically.
"Well, that's all there is to it now, I hope those guys don't have any more spare altars to use, otherwise, this time the bountiful sacrifice in King's Harbor will surely be bloody!"
Xue Hua shook his head helplessly.
Death Paulwood VI was the best of the worst of the worst of the worst of the best, and the cultists of the True God Cult would be desperate to create chaos and sow panic at the festival in order to obtain the crucial sacrificial offerings from the king.
And since the king trusts the True God Cult Legendary Cultivator who is disguised as a legendary mage, they will definitely have a lot of opportunities to get close to the king at that time.
If they want to save the life of Wood VI and the entire King's Harbor, they really have to do everything they can to do it at all costs.
When the time comes, the entire King's Harbor will be reduced to a bloody battlefield, and the commoners who participate in the Fertility Festival will inevitably be swept into this huge meat grinder......
This was an outcome that neither Xue Hua nor Kane wanted to see, but beyond that, they couldn't think of any other way to stop this.
The lesser of two evils, even Xue Hua can only find a way to let the swarm protect those innocent civilians as much as possible and withdraw from the city at that time.
After deciding on the final response plan, Kane and Xue Hua sat down together against the windowsill, waiting for the dawn with worry.
Outside the window, in the distance on the horizon, the golden sun was already shining from the horizon.
Today, this unstoppable beauty of the past only means the beginning of a bloody slaughter......
