Chapter 565: Dark Ritual
Rohr, the most outstanding knight of the Star family. From childhood to adulthood, he showed great talent as a warrior and attracted the attention of his elders. And when he came of age, his excellent appearance, aristocratic manners and noble sentiments made him a heartthrob among the elves. However, his vision is also extremely high, and he has always looked up at the lady of the day, and has become the most powerful contender for the selection of Lady Lilian Wang.
Although Rohr. The Holy Star not only has good combat power, but also performs extremely well in military strategy. It's just that she was able to get Lilian's reuse and became the supreme commander of the Star Emperor's right guard. In addition to his extraordinary origins and talents, the more important reason for this is his loyalty, this guy can be described as obedient to Lillian, and he is deeply favored by the elven queen.
"These damn fellows, as subordinates, have they thrown all the glory of the elves into the canal?" At this moment, Luo Er stood at the top of the tower on the inner side of the royal city, proudly looked at the battleships on the outskirts of the royal city, and scolded angrily: "If it weren't for the queen's order, I would definitely make you hateful guys look good today!" ”
"General, Your Majesty is looking for you!" At that moment, one of the warriors beside Rohr spoke.
"Well, you keep an eye on them for me, and I'll go back!" Rohr glanced at the soldiers around him and turned to leave.
When Rohr walked to the palace, Lilian had been waiting for a long time. But before Rolle could reply, a maid had already walked up to him and politely draped a black cloak over him. Rohr didn't understand what was going on, but when he saw Lillian nod lightly at him, he didn't resist, and let the cloak cover him tightly. In a short time, a group of black-cloaked men gathered in front of Lilian, looking at their queen with a puzzled expression.
"Don't ask anything, just follow quietly!" Lillian glanced at the crowd and turned to lead them into the palace.
A moment later, the group of elves came to a side hall and entered a dark secret passage. Although the cloaked man was full of doubts, in the end he didn't say a word and silently followed Lillian's back. They walked like this for a long time, and when they were about to lose their patience, they came to a huge underground lake.
The area of the underground lake is so large that you can't see the edge at a glance. There are some unknown sources of light floating on the rock wall above the lake, illuminating the entire underground space as if it were daytime, but also adding a sense of mystery to this underground lake. However, at this time, Lilian did not mean to stop, she led everyone directly into the smoke of the giant lake.
The people who came with Lilian, each of them were warriors as high as the ninth order, and naturally they would not be deterred by the small lake. It's just that walking on the water is a test of endurance, and a few guys with insufficient training finally made a fool of themselves after a long time of perseverance, and almost fell into the lake, making a mess.
Because Rohr has always been for Lilian's purpose, he has extremely high requirements for himself, so he naturally will not drop the chain at such a time, and follows closely behind Lilian, looking calm. However, Lilian's eyes kept staring ahead, as if she didn't pay attention to the person behind her at all, which made Rohr feel a little disappointed. Just walking, Luo Er found that the lake under his feet faintly revealed a cold breath, which penetrated into the skin and made people feel that it could erode the vitality in the body and make the body's functions stiff......
Finally, when most of the people were about to lose their support, they saw a small island appear in front of them. Somehow, the moment they saw the island, the elves felt a sense of relief, as if they all knew that the island was their destination.
"The four people at the front participate in the awakening ceremony, and the others are in charge of guarding!" When they reached the island, Lillian spoke nonchalantly.
"......" As soon as Lilian's words fell, everyone's minds were like lightning strikes, and they were stunned on the spot.
They never dreamed that this not very difficult journey would be a test, and their lives would be turned upside down in just half a step. For a while, the person walking behind looked at the four people in front, he was really envious and jealous, and at the same time he was full of regret in his heart - it was just two steps faster, why didn't he go faster? As for the awakening ritual that Lilian said, no one questioned it, because after obtaining the World Tree, they all realized that the elves would usher in great changes, and awakening was an imperative thing.
At this moment, another team appeared on the other side of the island, and the leader was none other than Princess Yaning. There were also more than a dozen people, but the moment these people appeared, Luo Er and several other sensitive elves sensed that the other party was a human being, not an elven race. Surprised, they looked at each other unconsciously, but they didn't say anything to ask. Lillian's warnings were still in their ears, and as soon as they spoke, it was likely that they would be replaced. As elven nobles, they are no strangers to scheming, and they know when they can open their mouths and when they should keep their mouths shut.
"Let's get started!" On the human side, a cloaked man spoke.
Lillian nodded to Yaning, and the two of them stood on either side, pressing the two hidden traps on the island at the same time. Then the water of the lake next to the island began to tumble, and in a short time a huge altar rose to the surface. The altar is divided into two levels, forming two six-pointed stars. And on the six-pointed star altar above, a huge crystal was placed in each of the six corners, and a monstrous monster was sealed inside.
When the people on the human side saw the monsters in the crystals, there was a small commotion. However, he quickly calmed down under the majestic gaze of the leader of the man, but at this time, the elves all felt the faint hatred of the humans opposite. Although it was a little unclear, Rohr and the others didn't care at all. Since they were young, they have been superior to others, even if they are now in front of the Awakened of the Federation, they will not show a trace of timidity, let alone a few ninth-order warriors!
"Sacrifice!" Lillian looked at the human in the lead.
The human in the lead waved his hand slightly, and immediately four people walked out behind him, escorting the other two cloaked men into the altar. When the two cloaked men walked into the two corners of the six-pointed star array on the ground, a soft force enveloped them and slowly turned into two crystals. Then the four humans happily walked into the other four corners, and let the mysterious power seal them away.
"Keep up!" Lillian looked back and jumped straight to the altar above.
Seeing this, Luo Er and the others did not hesitate, and jumped onto the altar with their queen, standing at the six nodes inside the six-pointed star array, waiting for the ceremony to begin. The human side, on the other hand, also took action, and immediately occupied the altar below. When the twelve people were seated, a soul-piercing song came from somewhere, both far and near, unpredictable. But when the song sounded, the altar slowly spun around, as if dancing to the song.
Gradually, a terrifying force descended on the island and the altar, making everyone want to bow down to the ground and salute the supreme power. But how could the people who came to this place at this time, all of them arrogant, succumb to that mysterious force? So they all unleashed their powers to fight against that mysterious force.
"Woo ......" Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, like a roar of an unjust soul, making everyone shiver.
The terrible sound of the wind became clearer and clearer, and the entire underground space was shrouded in a chilly feeling. And the careful people soon found that the source of these rumors was the altar, and after careful attention, they realized that this was not the sound of the wind at all, it was the real sound of screams, but it was distorted in the crystal, and finally turned into the sound of a gust of wind blowing!
"Something seems wrong!" Rohr, who was in the middle of the altar, covered his heart and spoke with difficulty. His breathing became more and more difficult, and his body's strength was almost drained, and he fell weakly on the altar. But what frightened him even more was that his body also collapsed unconsciously, as if it was about to merge with this altar!
"Awakening is to survive in death, you must die once in order to be born in Nirvana in death and achieve the path of awakening!" Suddenly, a solemn voice echoed in the sky, which lifted the spirits of the people on the altar who had lost control of their bodies, and the panic was greatly reduced.
"Oh no, this altar is incomplete!" Suddenly, someone on the human side shouted, "Teacher, run away!" ”
But as soon as his words fell, countless vines stretched out from the bottom of the underground lake like lightning, and flew towards the people on the human side. And almost at the same time, the bright figure of the Star Tree Grandma in the sky also flashed, and an incomparable power pressed down, binding everyone up.
"Get out!" The human voice just now shouted, and a momentum mixed with three different fist intents exploded, forcibly breaking away the pressure around him. Just as the human was about to take someone away, his body suddenly stopped, and then he looked behind him in disbelief. It turned out that another human had stabbed an extremely sharp dagger into the man's body at this moment, causing his momentum to stop instantly.
"Bastard!" The cloaked man on the side was shocked when he saw this, and he wanted to rush to the rescue. But his body stiffened at this moment, and he was imprisoned in place by an inexplicable force.
"Who are you?" The wounded human lifted his cloak at once, revealing Chenping's hideous face. I saw that he grabbed the throat of the sneak attacker as soon as he turned his hand, and the mixed fist intent on his body quickly became simple. That kind of lonely killing intent swept through the audience, and the competition was even more terrifying than the mixed fist intent just now.
"Then who do you say I am!" The person who was caught by Chenping revealed a handsome elf face at this time, and it was none other than the elf prince Jayne.
"Jayne, what's the matter...... No, you're not Jayne! Chenping's stunned expression suddenly became cold, he looked at the corner of the altar sharply, gritted his teeth and said, "Kilo. Will, you're still going to be a trickster at this point! ”
"Hahaha, it's so lively, how can we not get involved?" Jayne laughed maniacally.
"Humph!" Chenping snorted coldly, and Jayne fainted on the spot as if he was hit hard. Seeing this, Chenping waved his hand casually, threw the elf prince aside, and looked up at the void. I saw that the island and the altar were completely wrapped in roots and vines at this time, and their human side was completely surrounded. And what made him even more desperate was that the three awakened people did not react at all from beginning to end, and they didn't know what was going on?
"You're right!" Grandma Xingshu's voice came from mid-air, and she said proudly, "This altar is indeed incomplete, because it should have three floors in the first place. So this Twelve Star Soul Altar should be called the 'Eighteen Star Soul Altar', hahaha! ”
With the voice of Grandma Xingshu, the water surface of the underground lake suddenly became clear, and the altar in the water surface also appeared in front of everyone. However, what is terrifying is that at this time, there are three people on the altar who are desperately fighting the vines under the water. Chenping recognized the three people at a glance as Tianxiang. Feng Wu and the other three awakened people, I don't know when they were introduced to the altar?
Maybe it's on the altar, Tianxiang. Feng Wu and the three of them gradually seemed to be unable to stand up, and were overwhelmed by those vines. However, at this time, Chenping unexpectedly found that there were already three crystals on the altar under the water, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned in his heart. This elf clan does not show mountains and waters, but the depth of the heritage makes people shudder!
"Die!" Chenping suddenly raised his head, and the murderous intent all over his body appeared, and the vines that surrounded them quickly withered, and then were blown by the yin wind and turned into pieces in the sky.
"Is this the secret fist of mankind? Sure enough, it's a bit of a doorway! Grandma Xingshu looked at the dead vines around her in amazement, and her face became a little gloomy.
"Eye of Heaven!" It's just that at this time, Chenping didn't mean to stop at all, and a strange force flew out of his eyes, shooting directly towards the people of the elf clan on the side of the island.
"No!" Seeing this, Grandma Xingshu was shocked and immediately pounced to block the blow. But just as she was about to succeed, a breath of death quickly spread towards her body, frightening her to suddenly stop at the last moment, exposing all the elven geniuses to the attack of the Eye of Heaven.
"Bastard!" When Grandma Xingshu came back to her senses, the group of elven geniuses in front of her had disappeared without a trace. The death of the reserve seeds and the ugliness of their own exposure were fully revealed, which made Grandma Xingshu angry, and rushed towards Chenping with her teeth and claws.
"Get out!" Chenping suddenly let out a loud shout, and bounced the whole person of Xingshu Grandma who rushed over and flew upside down.
This Chenping can be described as domineering, and with just a loud shout, he knocked back the Star Tree Grandma, who is equivalent to the Awakened One, and stunned the human geniuses beside him. And the star tree grandma who flew out upside down couldn't say that although Chenping was powerful, it was far from the point of drinking herself back. She was forced to retreat because as the guardian of the elven race, she was bound by the "oath not to harm the elven royal family", and when she attacked just now, she was blocked by the power of the counterattack, not the result of Chenping's intimidation. It wasn't until then that she remembered that Chenping, the bastard, still had the identity of a prince equivalent to the elf king, which made her fall into the trap for a while.
"Follow me!" The light on Chenping's body flickered, and the two cloaked men rushed into the altar under the water. Seeing this, the rest of the humans immediately came to their senses, and scrambled to jump into the water and swim towards the altar. But at this moment, a sudden change occurred, two crisp sounds of "bang", and the two crystals in the six-pointed star array in the middle burst violently, and the two figures suddenly flew out of the range of the altar, looking at the people in the altar with a sneer on their faces. These two people are none other than the two top combat forces of the New Human Empire, Kilo. Will and Lowe have no heart!
"Everyone, there will be a meeting later!" The two of them had no intention of wasting time at all, and after getting out of trouble, they only left a sentence and disappeared into this mysterious space.
