Chapter 32: The Sacrifice
Faraki placed the disc in his hand on the ground.
As soon as it touched the ground, the disc seemed to come to life, and eight metal steel claws stretched out, firmly piercing into the ground.
As the steel claw pierced, the ground began to shake violently, and several cracks centered on the disc quickly spread to the surrounding area in the shape of crab claws.
"Run!" Faraki exclaimed, turned around and ran.
Scott reacted immediately and followed closely. Seeing this, the other three also retreated.
The cracks on the ground became thicker and thicker, winding like the roots of a century-old tree, and running rampant like a vicious dragon, and the surrounding trees fell to the ground and broke off one after another.
As the crack expanded, the stones on the cliff fell one after another, resulting in a large landslide.
After the landslide ended, the surrounding smoke and dust gradually dissipated, and a tall temple rose out of thin air from the place where the cliff was.
The temple floated in the air, soaring into the sky, its angular shape full of murderous aura.
The temple gate is made of inky material with a jade-like sheen, and the surface is engraved with strange graphic text full of ancient atmosphere, and in the middle of the strokes, an ominous dark red halo flows.
Everyone looked at each other, and everyone could see the look of surprise and fear in each other's eyes.
The moment this temple came into view, they all seemed to see a mechanical eyeball slowly open in their hearts, and the ancient language rang through the sky like a bell, they couldn't understand it, but they couldn't help but want to kneel down and worship.
"This, is this the true God?" Evan asked tremblingly.
"No, the true god is in the temple." Faraki said.
"How can this temple be opened? How can we get in? Lilith said with a frown.
Faraki stepped forward and removed a disc from the temple gate, the same token of the true god he had used to summon the temple before, and he played with the disc in his hand, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "The opening of the temple requires sacrifices." ”
"Sacrifices? What sacrifice? Lilith took two steps and stood beside Farachi.
Faraki placed the disc on Lilith's chest with his backhand, and the disc suddenly stretched out eight steel claws and stabbed into Lilith's pair of white skin and softness that countless boys coveted, and blood burst out from the grooves around the steel claws.
"The sacrifice is the blood of a maiden." Faraki leaned close to Lilith's ear and whispered.
Lilith ran away from Falaki in horror, reaching out to snap the spider-like metal disc off her chest. But the steel claws stabbed deeper and deeper, tearing relentlessly through Lilith's soft lungs, eventually piercing through her body and stabbing out from behind.
Bright red blood poured from the wound, wetting her beautiful gothic costume, and Lilith coughed up blood, the leaden gray of death in her sapphire eyes.
At this time, many wires extended around the metal disc, and these wires intertwined with each other, forming a cross. The cross held Lilith's entire body up, and Lilith, who had little strength left, couldn't resist at all.
From above the temple gate, a red light suddenly shone down, and this red light enveloped the entire cross and Lilith's body, and the cross actually floated up in the air and flew above the temple gate.
As the cross reached the temple's dark jade gate, the runes on the black jade began to flash a more vivid red, and the red halo merged with the black jade gate, showing a blood-like color.
From the cross, several filaments protruded and inserted into Lilith's torso, arms, and thighs. The filaments pulsated, as if hungry for Lilith's blood, and seemed to devour Lilith's soul, causing Lilith's countenance to wither and age at a visible rate.
Lilith sobbed silently, her desperate eyes staring at the four people below, miserable and sad, even Faraki, and couldn't help but lower her eyes to avoid her gaze.
After a long time, the grand sacrifice was finally over, Lilith's withered body fell to the ground, the streamer on the black jade pattern was much brighter than before, looking full and satisfied, and the door finally opened slowly, and the dark and bottomless passage was displayed in front of the four of them.
The four people standing outside the door had stiff feet, and no one dared to enter.
Is this the true God? Its sacrifice was so brutal and terrible, so bloody, so ...... Evil is more evil than the most terrible demons in religious texts, the most exhaustive of human imagination.
Now, there was no turning back, and Faraki held back his fear and led the way through the temple gates.
。。。。。。
Zhang Xiu and the others returned to the camp by the beach, of course they did not tell the truth about the wreckage of the spaceship, but just casually prevaricated that there was not much valuable equipment in the wreckage of the spaceship.
Because the reserve of fresh water has begun to run short, the camp can no longer be stationed by the sea, and they have to be moved to the water source.
It was not a simple task to coordinate a squad of people to move the camp safely, but under Ye Zina's arrangement, everyone packed up the camp tents and equipment in an orderly manner, and arranged the scouts responsible for guarding and scouting, as well as transporting personnel.
Zhang Xiu couldn't help but look at Ye Zina with admiration, but he didn't expect that this arrogant little girl could be regarded as having good leadership skills, and she was worthy of being the biological sister of Ye Zirin, the governor of the star district.
The transfer of the camp took almost a whole day. Instead of helping to set up tents at the new camp, Zhang Xiu went to set up alarms around. After all, the new camp is different from the beach, surrounded by jungle, and if you encounter a fierce beast like the Chimera without warning, the consequences are unimaginable.
Due to the shortage of materials and limited time, he only made six of them overnight, which must be placed in key places to have a full warning effect. He'd spent most of his day doing this.
When Zhang Xiu returned to the camp, the tents were basically all set up, and he was about to walk into the camp, when Vladimir hurriedly stopped him: "Don't move!" Don't move! ”
He trotted to Zhang Xiu's feet and carefully removed the trigger of the trap hidden under the fallen leaves.
"Traps? Where did you get this stuff? Zhang Xiu asked.
There were no large beasts in the planned wilderness habitat, and there was certainly no such thing as a trap in the supply box.
"It's just a simple trap made of two pieces of iron and a leather rope and some other materials." Vladimir replied.
"Shouldn't you have enough strength?" Zhang Xiu squatted down and observed carefully.
"Well, don't talk about the Chimera, even a female badger can break free, so I added a rope that can trip the beast's legs." Vladimir explained.
Zhang Xiu remembered the Chimera that had confronted him, shook his head and said, "It's hard to play any role. ”
"I don't expect much to do, as long as I can delay it a little bit."
Zhang Xiu suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind: "You say, if this trap is connected to high-voltage electricity, will it work much better?" ”
"High voltage electricity? Where do we get high voltage? If you can get high voltage, why don't we pull the barbed wire? Vladimir asked suspiciously.
"No, I can't get high voltage for a long time, but I can do it if it's instantaneous high voltage." Zhang Xiu muttered to himself, "Just use the energy storage effect of inductors or capacitors." Large capacitors are hard to get, but inductors are not. But if you use an inductor, you need alternating current... Alternating current... That's right! Just use a power field-effect transistor to make an inverter circuit. ”
"Not at all, I don't understand." Vladimir answered honestly.
"It's okay, you just do as I say, I'll go get the equipment." Zhang Xiu said excitedly.
