160 Rituals in an Earthquake

Under the gray sky, the military camp located halfway up the mountain was noisy, and the soldiers walked up and down the mountain or practiced with each other to relieve the cold that was freezing to the bone marrow around them. Vertex Says X 23 U OM

However, not everyone is like this, some would rather lie in the tent wrapped in all kinds of warm clothes than do much activity, some are so cold that they have lost their mobility, and some are more like "eating and waiting to die".

At this moment, a small team of three people is located at the foot of the mountain in a remote place to start a "picnic".

The night watchman named Add, wrapped in a bearskin coat, squatted by the fire, a long sword with a raven in his hand flipped in his hand, and the smell of meat gradually spread through the campfire.

"If the messenger fails, I'll be a dead ghost anyway."

As he spoke, he stared at the messenger crow he had stolen from the messenger, his Adam's apple rolling subconsciously.

"Can a bird fill its belly?" Piper gave him a strange look, then couldn't help but look up at the hill on the left.

"Jon, do you think the Emissary can succeed?"

"The messenger will not fail." The last person here replied, his voice not sounding hesitant, but his tone was a little absent-minded.

"Still thinking about your savage?" Seeing his appearance, the Eddie who roasted the crow couldn't help but sigh, "Die Jon, as a sworn night watchman, I don't think you will end well." ”

Piper nodded. "That's right, we're not allowed to marry a wife and have children, let alone a savage?"

"Of course I know that." Jon frowned, "But the old gods ......"

"What happened to the Old Gods?"

Jon shook his head and didn't speak. Eddie and Piper look at each other and change the subject.

"All I can say is how lucky Samwell didn't come."

"That's right, this is probably the coldest place in the world, and it can freeze people and chickens."

"I have some regrets...... Jon, why do you think you're following? If you don't come, I won't follow, and if I don't, I won't freeze to death. ”

"No one told you to follow, Eddie, you didn't choose your legs to grow on you. And you're not dead yet. ”

Eddie's expression choked with indignation as Piper's words widened his mouth to say something, but eventually changed the subject, "Speaking of Sam, I suddenly remembered that a while ago he hid under the covers and cried, saying that the messenger's men had robbed him of his treasure......"

He sneered as he spoke.

"It's funny, the messenger has nothing to do with stealing his things."

"Sam never lies." Hearing this, Piper couldn't help but say, "He doesn't even have the courage to lie, everyone knows it." ”

"So......" Add blinked, "do you think the Emissary really robbed him of his treasure?" ”

"If this is true," Jon said suddenly, who had been silent for a long time, "the messenger must have his reasons." ”

Hearing him say this, the two companions couldn't help but look at him, "Okay Jon, even if that lord saved your father, Samwell is still our friend." ”

"I'm just analyzing it rationally." Jon replied.

"It's strange, when did our Lord Snow learn to think rationally?"

"Maybe after the savage slapped him?"

"It's a pity that she fanned a little late, if only she had done it before leaving."

As he spoke, the two glanced at each other and couldn't help but laugh.

Jon was a little depressed by the laughter of his companions, and he sat down at the campfire, absentmindedly fiddling with the fire in front of him with a twig, and after a while, he said:

"Everyone says I'm here for Ygritte, but in fact the messenger saved my father's life, and I just want to repay him, even though he doesn't need it, and I can't really help much, but ......"

These words made the expressions of his two friends who laughed at him retract slightly, and then they began to listen carefully one by one, but they were serious, but Jon suddenly stopped talking.

In this regard, Piper, who was sitting across from him, wondered: "What? Our beauties are too shy to say it? ”

Ignoring the ridicule of his companions, Jon's expression was dazed, and his expression gradually became solemn as he looked behind his two companions.

Seeing him like this, Eddie and Piper immediately reacted and hurriedly turned their heads to look, but their faces also changed drastically.

As far as the eye can see, on the vast snow-white plain, a touch of black suddenly appears at the end of the originally gray and dim sky!

At first, the black color was as small and inconspicuous as a strand of hair, but in a few breaths, it grew rapidly, and finally revealed its true face

It was a black cloud!

A black cloud that buried all the gray skies in sight!

The clouds were as black as inky carbon, and as if they were pure black dyes without any other colors, surging rapidly, like a surging flood, spreading wildly at the end of the sky!

"That's ...... What the? ”

Piper couldn't help but ask, his not-so-large eyes glaring like brass bells.

No one answered him, and the two companions beside him were already speechless at this time, shocked by this catastrophic scene.

The black clouds surged, expelling the light, bringing darkness, visible to the naked eye, the snow-white plain outside the abyss blockade line was gradually shrouded in shadows, and then the shadows spread wildly, and it didn't take long to reach the vicinity of the blockade line!

Black clouds covered the sky, and the wind blew with it, and the snow on the ground was scattered like sand, and the surrounding trees, which had been sparsely cut down by the army, began to sway violently, and the air currents between the mountain streams swirled and whined.

In this case, the fire in front of the three of them was unknowingly blown out, and the roasted crow stuck in Eddie's sword was also buried by the blowing snow.

It's just that in this regard, Eddie, who was originally hungry and thirsty, has no mind to take care of his own food anymore.

Stunned to watch all this, stunned for a while, he suddenly felt a chill on his forehead, so Eddie looked up at the sky, and then couldn't help moaning. groaned.

"Damn, it's snowing......"

……

The wind and clouds above the mountain peak changed color, and in the sealing ground below the mountain peak, a gloomy and high-pitched incantation sound was constantly sounding at this moment.

A string of strange spells blurted out were high-spirited, and the tone was full of extremes and hoarseness, and the voice alone sounded as if it were the scene of a cult sacrifice.

Charles stood in front of a magic circle carved out of blood, his expression solemn, his mouth constantly opening and closing, and his voice filling the space around him.

Chanting incantations in his mouth, his hands held aloft the still-active flesh heart, and the wide sleeves of his black robe fell off as a result.

Under the green light full of life, bursts of bright red blood inexplicably gushed out from the veins of the beating heart in his hands, flowing and spreading along Charles's white arms, gradually soaking the hem of his armpits, and blending with the black fabric, forming a viscous dark red.

The damp breath of blood was quite uncomfortable, but at this moment he completely ignored such a trivial matter.

He just kept chanting the incantation, his eyes fixed on the magic circle in front of him, and the strange meteorite surrounded by the magic array.

The dark blue meteorite, which merged with the white space, was an empty shell, and it did not react to what he was doing at this time, and as the spell sounded, the magic circle around it slowly began to change.

A dark glow crept over the surface symbols of the blood formations, and the skulls and phalanges that lay around them began to shake as Charles chanted a syllable.

The surrounding white space slowly filled with bursts of gray mist, and the mist was gloomy and cold, gathering around the magic array, enveloping everything, including Charr.

A vine stretched from above was forced to retract, but after a while, the vine descended again and forced its way into the gray fog that surrounded it!

Eventually, it came to rest behind Charles' neck, then gently touched his skin.

"You have to hurry, the gods have noticed what you are doing."

The old voice appeared in the bottom of Charles's heart, and the voice was quite solemn, but it could not hide a sense of joy.

The Three-Eyed Raven seemed pleased that Charles' actions could pose a threat to the meteorite.

It's just that Charles didn't respond to this, his eyes were still staring at everything in front of him without blinking, his expression was focused, and his mind was not distracted.

As the gray mist gathered more and more, the incantations in his mouth became more and more urgent, and the bone artifacts around the magic array trembled violently because of this, they only trembled faintly at first, but now they opened and closed as if jumping.

Under this strange progress, it didn't take long for a certain skull that had a violent reaction during the ritual to fly and float violently!

Then the second, then the third......

Ten skulls jumped up one after another, bringing up a few strands of gray silk threads like hairs in the ground magic array, these strange silk threads were tightly wound around each skull, and the end was connected with the phalanges on the ground, with heads and tails, stretching and fluttering, as if forming a special "creature".

After the general outline of the creature appeared, the gray smoke gathered and enveloped it, and finally these strange things in front of him really turned into a humanoid figure shrouded in mist!

The humanoid figures were made up of mist all over their bodies, churning and filling, and two points of scarlet light flickered in their eyes. As soon as they were born, they stood silently around the arc of the magic circle, staring at the Charles with their strange eyes.

This situation is very strange at first glance, but Charles, who has experienced similar scenes "twice", ignores it, and the hoarse spells in his mouth never stop, and his heart is constantly pinching the time, silently preparing.

However, things didn't go so smoothly, and not long after the ten mist figures appeared, a violent vibration suddenly came from all around. The tremor was sudden, and the trembling under his feet was like an earthquake, so that the spell in Charles's mouth almost didn't stop!

Fortunately, he was still determined, and finally insisted on reading.

The surrounding tremors began to intensify as soon as they appeared, and the ground rumbled and shook as a result, and the white void above his head continued to hear the crisp sound of broken stones, accompanied by the rustle of vines struggling, and the situation seemed to be a little bad.

The earthquake grew louder, and soon after, countless rubbles began to fall from the top of the seal, crackling, and crashing into the ground with a loud impact, and a sharp gravel even landed on Charles's forehead, breaking his head and bleeding.

However, the smashed head of Charles did not show a painful look, but breathed a sigh of relief, and then shook the surrounding mountains, and the bright red heart held high in his hand was thrown by him towards the meteorite in the center of the ceremony!

Under the boom, a faint crackling sound could be heard, the heart shattered, and the minced flesh and viscous blood coagulated on the surface of the meteorite due to the extreme cold.

And at the moment when the heart shattered, the ten "special beings" who were staring at the charr also shifted their gaze.

The foot suction is coming!
