Chapter 171: The Beginning of the Sacrifice Ceremony
At dawn the next day, in the central square of the aristocratic district of Erezaras, Tosedlin summoned all the Grand Arcanists, members of the Eresaras Council, to officially announce the beginning of the sacrifice. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The Grand Arcanists began to set up the sacrificial circle, and with the concerted efforts of dozens of people, a huge circle with a brilliant blue light gradually formed on the ground.
On the second floor of the Great Library, Eruditoists quietly watched the busy Grand Arcanists.
"What exactly is His Royal Highness the Prince going to do? He can't complete the sacrifice ceremony like this! The sacrificial ritual requires not only a magic circle, but also a scepter, a potion, and ......"
Kildath was interrupted in the middle of his sentence by Ledros.
"Shhhhhh Ledros put his index finger to his lips and made a silent gesture, "If you look at who is here, you should know who His Royal Highness is really targeting." ”
Speaking of this, Ledros couldn't help but shake his head.
"We polymaths don't get involved in these politics, but I don't know if this storm will really blow on our heads if it gets stronger......
With the asymmetry of information, the Grand Arcanist and the Council of Eresaras really thought that Torcedrin had made up their minds to sacrifice themselves! Following their own plan, they left a number of easy-to-control arcane flow switches at the nodes of the circle, which were seen by Torsedrin, and strengthened the prince's determination.
The morning had been spent in the busyness of the Grand Arcanists, and by the time the circle was drawn, the sun was already in the middle of the sky.
The huge movement attracted the Sindra civilians who remained in the city, and it was difficult for Sartre to sneak into the sun at noon anyway, so everyone simply came to the central square in groups.
When the whole square was crowded with Sindra, Torcedrin stood in the middle of the circle. Furious arcane energy poured out of his body, and the arcane winds made it almost impossible for anyone present to open their eyes.
"Sons of Eresaras! Today, I, Tosseldrin, stand here to give my last speech -- after which I will perform a sacrificial ceremony and give all my mystical powers! ”
"Over the past 10,000 years, we of Syndra in Eresaras have experienced countless winds, frosts, rains and snows, and witnessed countless vicissitudes, but today, the real crisis has appeared in front of us!"
"It's all my mistake, I didn't find a new source of energy to replace the demon, I didn't fulfill my promise to meet everyone's arcane needs, so I'm standing here today, and I choose to give the last of my own arcane energy to everyone."
"I hope these energies will support you in your quest to find a new source of energy - no, I hope you go to the Night Elves and give up unnecessary reserve, and my death should be enough to appease their dissatisfaction for thousands of years."
"After I die, I want everyone to leave Eresaras as soon as possible, the arcane circle here is enough to restrain the demons, but that's all, I don't want my people to be hurt and enslaved by the demons."
Tosedrin's words were clearly heard in the ears of every Sindra present with the help of Ao Neng, and the few older Sindras remembered the sacrifice ceremony that Prince Toyns had also performed here, and couldn't help but weep secretly.
They didn't know the chaos behind the ceremony, they just thought that the prince was really cornered.
As a result, many upright Sindra raised their arms and shouted that they would die together with Eresaras and Torsedrin.
This call made Torcedrin look very hesitant, but His Royal Highness gritted his teeth, rejected the offer, and then signaled for the sacrifice ceremony to begin.
The Arcane Circle began to rotate slowly, and the visible Ao Energy was withdrawn from Tosedrin's body and injected into the flow of Eresaras's magic net, and the civilian authority of the magic net was also completely opened, and Sindra who was present didn't care about the grief of Tosedrin's sacrifice, and began to greedily enjoy the rare pure arcane energy.
The ritual was going on quietly, and as Prince Tosedrin's arcane energy fluctuations became weaker and weaker, several archacanists glanced at each other, and then nodded quickly.
"Your Royal Highness, something is wrong! It seems that some of these civilians are murderers of their compatriots! ”
Nosas's words stunned Sindra for a moment.
"I had previously found something wrong with the corpses of Councillor Eresaras's family, but I couldn't find any trace of it, and now at the Prince's sacrifice ceremony, the fluctuation has reappeared! It must be the murderer disguised among the civilians, the prince pauses first, we have to find out the murderer! ”
"Besides, we can't let the murderers absorb enough arcane power, they won't necessarily do anything when they're mad!"
Nossa's words caused an uproar among those he attended.
As the chief arcanist of Eresaras, Nosas's words undoubtedly carried a lot of weight, and everyone was a little hesitant and frightened at the thought that there might really be a murderer absorbing the arcane powers.
Tocedlin also stopped the output of the Ao Neng, coughed twice, and then spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Master Nosas, are you serious? Is there really a murderer mixed up here? ”
"That's right, Your Highness the Prince, I once went to examine the corpse in private, and there were traces of Arcanon on the wound, not Sartre's signature Shadow Ability! This must have been done by the wicked people in the city, and I suggest that the whole city be put under martial law first to find out the truth! ”
Hearing Nosas say this, all the members of the Eresaras Council were instantly outraged and expressed their desire to find the murderer.
"Blood debt and blood payment!"
"The murderer must not go unpunished!"
……
"But the ceremony has already begun!" Tosedrin's face turned pale, "I only have one day left in my life, and today the ritual must be completed!" ”
"As you wish, my Royal Highness." Nosas bowed, "We, the Grand Arcanist, will receive this energy for the time being, and once the whole city has found out the truth, this energy will be supplied to you in a fraction of it." ”
The syndra civilians present were a little overwhelmed for a moment, they were still immersed in the excitement of absorbing the arcane energy, but they didn't expect that there were so many twists and turns.
Just as the Grand Arcanists had regained control of the flow of energy, allowing it to flow to themselves, and motioned for Prince Torcedrin to begin supplying the Arcane again, Karedis stepped forward.
"That's enough, you thieves shouting to catch thieves, I think you were the ones who killed your compatriots at that time - honorable archarcanists!"
Nosas was stunned for a moment, then seemed to understand something, and his face changed in an instant! (To be continued.) )
