Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Sacrifice That Was Replaced

It was a huge throne room, and in a ruined hall, a rhinoceros-like monster with a spear stuck in its back lay there, its limbs locked in four giant chains extending from the ceiling, as if it had been sealed.

At this time, its eyes were full of lines, and it remained motionless as if it was asleep, while a faint demonic aura faintly emanated from its body.

"Is this ......," Anne asked in surprise.

"The cursed king." Locke gestured to the rhinoceros with a crown on its head, "If we come here, our role will naturally be to kill the sealed demon, and then go to the dead archmage soul to hand over the task, and then leave." ”

Exactly, it's the role that the player plays.

In the original Wrath of the Gods, the player did not have anything to do with the king, and after coming here, they went directly to the preparation room at the back of this hall, where there is the spirit of the archmage, talk to him and learn about what happened here in the past, and then hope that the brave can kill the sealed demon and let the king be redeemed.

This is a 20-player quest, and the premise is, of course, that all players must not exceed Tier 4, and the race must be life-based, so even though the demon is not good at fighting, they still beat all life-type players like dogs.

Level suppression plus attribute restraint, this quest is quite difficult.

But now......

"That's not what we're aiming for." Locke said as he led the group towards the left passage, pointing to another corridor on the opposite side and said, "That's where the sealed demon is, and the fat priest who came in here, if he guessed correctly, should be there." ”

When several people heard this, they all had the same expressions, and they were not surprised why Locke knew this, after all, the king was an all-knowing and all-powerful being, and there was nothing he could not do.

Not long after they left the corridor on the left and turned into the other rooms, the door to the throne room was kicked open, and a group of paladins rushed in, led by the priest.

Apparently they had missed out on Locke again......

As Locke said before, these gods can't detect them, everything is under his control.

"Where are we going now?" Anne on the shoulder asked Locke greasy. After listening to the story just now, she couldn't help but feel sorry for the people in the story, and at the same time glad that the king she followed did not have to suffer such a catastrophe.

"Going to the final destination of our trip, just a little bit of a question has been bothering me." Locke said with a slight frown.

Looking at the omniscient king, there were also doubts, and Anne immediately rubbed beside his cheek and said, "Only Anne can't think of it, there is nothing that the king can't do!" Right? ”

The fat man who followed next to him, as well as the floating vampires, all nodded in agreement, their expressions full of determination.

"What do you know from the story? George, you answer. As Locke walked ahead, he asked a question to the vampire floating next to him like an elder, and when the latter heard this, he immediately replied:

"The empire weakened, the king summoned demons on the advice of the mage, and in the end he could not meet the demands of the demons, the king became a monster, and the castle became a ruin."

After listening to this, Locke nodded slightly: "That's right, but didn't you find the problem?" ”

"Questions?" The vampire turned to look at the fat man, who shrugged his shoulders in disbelief.

"It's about sacrifices." After Locke finished speaking, he stopped in what looked like a restaurant, put his hand on the door, and as he was about to push it open, he asked, "If they really didn't do anything, then how do you explain this?" ”

A long roar sounded, and the door of the restaurant, which had not been opened for a long time, was opened, and the scene unfolding in front of them shocked everyone.

In the vast royal communal dining hall, instead of straight dusty tables, there was a ruin, a ruin that seemed to have been burned by fire, and the surrounding walls were covered with scorched marks that reached the ceiling, and on this scorched ground, large and small transparent spirits wandered woodenly.

Each of them looked like the horse bandit wraith seen in the laboratory, with a mist-covered lower body, and a pale cyan upper body that could vaguely discern the appearance of the spirit before its deathβ€”a woman dressed as a maid with a headscarf.

Looking at the number of spirits that filled the hall, it seemed as if all the maids in the entire palace were here.

"This ......" everyone watched in amazement.

Locke led the crowd and slowly approached: "This place has been burned by fire, and many female resentful spirits have gathered here, so we can briefly speculate that they did use ordinary maids to replace the ladies of the upper nobles as sacrifices to make a deal with the demons. ”

The resentful spirits along the way were about to pounce when they saw the gate being opened, but when they saw that it was a demon that specialized in devouring spirits, they immediately fled in fright - they didn't seem to be able to get out of the gate.

"But the king was cursed, and apparently the demon did not accept the substituted sacrifice." The vampire said.

When the fat man next to him heard this, he immediately muttered: "Some are good to eat, and they are picky." "When Tian Ji signed the contract with Locke at that time, the sacrifice was only a little mosaic, and even so, he had to thank Locke for not killing.

"Huh." Locke turned his head and smiled at him, which suddenly frightened the fat man's soul, and quickly prayed: "Big ...... My lord! That was not what I meant! I just ......"

If he complains about the sacrifice he was given, then any king can see it as rebellious. The fat man, who knew this, of course, knew that his fate was likely to be expelled, and he was immediately beheaded to show the public in order to maintain the majesty of the king.

Because all the lords of hell do it!

"It's just touching the scene and feeling emotional, I know, get up. Your current master is not one of those lowly brutes. Locke kept walking in with his back to him, in fact he wanted to say to him, don't think so much, it's just that the fat man himself scared himself.

The vampire looked strange, and Anne, who was lying on Locke's back, turned her head, looked at the fat man with a miserable white face, and asked, "Tian Ji, what's wrong with you?" ”

"I didn't ...... Nothing ......."

"Tian Ji is right." Locke walked among the ruins with his back to the crowd: "It's good to eat some, if this guy falls into my hands, let it grab a handful of soil and stuff it in its mouth as a sacrifice, if you dare not eat it, peel it off and feed it!" ”

When the fat man heard this, he suddenly shuddered.

The vampire looked at it, seemed to know something, patted the fat man on the shoulder and comforted him, and then turned to Locke and said, "What are we doing here?" Can you solve the confusion of stupid subordinates? ”

"If you're stupid, then what am I?!" Locke turned his cheek sideways and glared at him, which suddenly made the vampire quickly bow his head and say, "My subordinates don't dare!" ”

"Alright, alright." Finally, Anne on the shoulder rubbed his back and asked, "What are we doing here?" ”

"That's what we're here for." Locke pointed to the innermost part that was covered by many resentful spirits, and three evil spirits with red light all over their bodies appeared! (To be continued)
