Chapter 384: Blood Sacrifice
Abu's battle plan is simple, the main dragon force is led by the deputy patriarch, and it will be used as a bait to storm the temple and attract the attention of the heir of the devouring prince.
The second elite team, led by Abu himself, invaded the temple from the sewers, went to the shrine, activated it, activated the temple's autonomous defense system, suppressed those monsters, and finally completed the seal.
Xia Ye and his party want to follow Abu to act.
"Abu was so ruthless that he even brought the child with him. ”
Along the way, Xia Frog's suspicion of Abu became lighter and lighter, not to mention anything else, his daughter is still in the team, if there is danger, everyone will carry it together.
"It's called sincerity. ”
Xia Shilian felt normal.
The monsters have an IQ, but they are not very high, and although they have occupied the temple for hundreds of years, they have not placed defenses in places like sewers.
Abu led the team and infiltrated it easily, the only trouble was that the environment was relatively treacherous, and a few dragonmen were almost swept away by the current.
"Follow me. ”
Abu reminded that he led the way, and some dragons were worried that he would be injured and wanted to go to the front, but he pulled him back.
"The scouts have already gone first, no problem. ”
Abu has the pride of a great chieftain.
The team traveled very fast, and there were no detours or secluded paths, and they were all killed all the way.
The altar is on the lower level of the temple, making use of the volcanic cave structure naturally formed inside the mountain, saving the difficulty of manual excavation, giving Xia Ye the feeling of exploring in a cave
"There are corpses. ”
Woad sniffed, and quickly pointed in the direction of ten o'clock, where there was a tattered corpse, apparently falling from above.
"Be careful, there may be monsters nearby!"
Abu reminded again.
The terrain around is too complicated for scouts to inspect everything, and the presence of humans means that monsters are likely to come down and search.
Xia Ye's Eye of Domination is undoubtedly the most perfect radar, which can detect danger in advance, but with his current realm, he can't keep it open, so he can only rely on dragonmen.
During the operation, someone among the dragonmen suddenly let out a few strange bird calls, and before everyone could understand what was going on, Abu had quickly pulled out the steam pistol inserted in the holster of his thigh, reloaded, and injected the steam.
A monster had just stepped out from behind a jagged rock, and before anyone could be seen, a gunshot rang out.
Bang!
A projectile slammed into its head precisely in the dark environment.
The powerful impact force directly lifted the skull, causing their bodies to fall backwards, and with a thud, they fell to the ground.
Swish!
Brains and blood were mixed and sprinkled on the stone walls.
Hiss!
Seeing this scene, the faces of the humans present were not very good, how powerful that kind of monster is, everyone has seen it, at least it has to be mixed in the Yuan Realm, so that it has the strength to fight, but now, it was shot in the head by Abu.
"The Grand Patriarch's pistol is a modified one, right?
Wei Ziluo muttered and looked at Xia Ye.
"It should be. ”
Cao Daoyun and Xia Shilian nodded, saying this is nothing more than self-deception, otherwise how many years of hard training they have had, they are not as good as a bronze rifle, and the blow is too great.
"Hmph, what's there to envy, the reloading is too slow, and the steam has to be replaced, and I have this time, I would have blown him up. ”
Elivie pouted.
"Elivia. ”
Jiaduo scolds, true heroes, have the courage and open-mindedness to recognize the strength of their opponents, not to belittle.
"If you equip a thousand savages with this weapon and shoot them together, the heroes will be able to form a hornet's nest, right?"
Friday's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but wipe his saliva, his strength is not good, so he can appreciate the power of this weapon even more.
Hearing this, everyone's faces froze, and then they became possessive.
"You must have a good relationship with Natsuno. ”
Cao Daoyun clenched his fist: "If you can't get the drawings, you have to get the weapon." ”
"You only see the power, but you don't see the drawbacks, if you want to achieve the level of the great patriarch's marksmanship, it takes a lot of time and bullets to feed it. ”
Natsuno comforted.
Swish!
Everyone's eyes turned to Ana.
Abu asked Ana to take care of Natsuno's party, and it is unknown whether there is any intention to monitor.
"Yes, my father's archery skills, in the tribe, can be ranked in the top three. ”
Ana didn't hide it: "If an ordinary dragon wants to do it to this extent, in addition to a lot of training, it also needs talent. ”
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Who are the other two?"
Woad was curious.
"Uncle Bing. ”
Ana lifted her chin proudly.
"What about the other one?"
Follow-up on Friday.
"You're stupid, the other one is naturally Sister Ana. ”
Woad rolled her eyes.
The dragon girl had a proud expression on her face, but after looking at Xia Ye, she retracted, this human, who seemed to be familiar with the steam rifle, knew the advantages and disadvantages of this weapon.
"But he only looked at the bronze drawings, and this knowledge was not written on it, and he would only know if he used a rifle?"
The dragon girl couldn't figure it out, and in the end it could only be boiled down to the fact that Xia Ye was born to know the wise, and for the wise, even if the other party was a human being, he should maintain respect.
After that, they encountered a few more monsters that came here in pursuit of the escaped humans, and there was no danger, and all of them were blown out in the head by the Abrons.
"These guys have so sharp senses. ”
Wei Ziluo was envious.
In addition to hearing and smelling, dragonmen's eyesight is also terrifying, they don't need lighting, they can move without hindrance, and their physical fitness is even better.
It can be said that the dragon man child, without cultivating, is already at the level of the ninth order of the forging body realm.
"Find a way to reclaim them. ”
Xia Frog thinks that he doesn't have this ability, so he can only rely on Xia Ye.
"Difficult. ”
Xia Ye didn't want to bother with that, and he didn't want to be occupied by the dragonman magpie's nest.
After a long journey, the altar arrived.
It was the size of a football field, with a high platform in the middle, surrounded by strange stone statues, some of which were broken.
"Hurry up. ”
Abu commanded.
The ten dragonmen, who had already been trained, immediately took the materials and began to repair the altar and set up the scenes needed for the ceremony.
The process of waiting can be frustrating.
Natsuno sat down cross-legged and used meditation to pass the time.
The longer everyone delayed, the more casualties the main force of the dragonmen who attracted firepower on it, so the dragons' hands and feet were very fast, and after half an hour, the preparations for the ceremony were completed.
"Great Chief, it's okay. ”
Abu himself came to invite.
"I'm going to go bloodletting now?"
Xia Ye looked at the dilapidated high platform, Abu had already said before, he didn't have to do anything, just stay pious and let some blood go.
"No, I'm asking you to prepare for my orders. ”
After Abu finished speaking, he looked at the group and said, "Let them quit and wait, otherwise it will interfere with the ceremony." ”
"I'm going to stay here. ”
Woad refused.
"I want it too. ”
Jiaduo's red-light monster Elivia spoke in unison.
"If you stay here, it will lead to a disorder of vitality, and there is a risk that the sacrifice will fail. ”
Ana frowned.
"That's your business. ”
Xia Frog stared at Abu coldly, too far away, if something happened to Xia Ye, they would not have time to rescue.
"Yes, if you insist, we'll leave at once. ”
Jiaduo's tone was tough.
"Forget it. ”
Abu stopped his daughter, who was going to say more, went to the altar, and began to chant prayers and communicate with the spirits of the ancestors.
Wow!
The living sacrifices brought were several fierce beasts, which were cut off by the dragonmen at this time, and the blood was put into the stone in front of the altar.
Although the ritual was a little bloody, when the altar lit up and a pale golden light shimmered slightly, everyone experienced the feeling of being illuminated by the spring sun.
Atmosphereally, this is not an evil sacrifice, so everyone is relieved.
Natsuno opened the Eye of Domination and looked at the altar, but what he saw was a ball of light.
"Great Chief, please go up to the high platform and pour blood on the stone tablet. ”
At the highest point of the high platform, there is a broken stone tablet with ghost-like characters on it, everyone has noticed it a long time ago, but they can't understand it.
Xia Ye complied, and as soon as he stepped on the steps, he felt like he had burst a bubble, and there was a feeling of stagnation around him.
Coming to the stone tablet, Xia Ye pulled out a survival straight knife and cut it in the palm of his hand.
Tick tock!
Blood dripped.
Abu's chanting became louder, and everyone else stared at Natsuno closely, but three minutes passed, and nothing changed.
"What's the matter? The birds didn't even scream!"
Woad stood on tiptoe.
"The sacrifice failed. ”
Cao Daoyun's words were concise and to the point, and the light on the altar began to gradually dim, which meant that the ceremony was about to end.
"No, it won't, his blood obviously activated the Divine Will Stone!"
Ana shook her head, pale.
The other dragonmen also showed desperate looks, this time, the dragonmen poured out of the nest, but they didn't expect it to be such an embarrassing result.
"Fathers, listen to the prayers of your children!"
In order to keep the light of the altar from extinguishing and prolonging the ceremony, Abu waved his hand and cut his wrist, pouring the blood containing the essence of life into the Great Ding.
"Father!"
Ana was startled and tried to run over, but was glared at by Abu.
"Wow, this Great Chief is so ruthless. ”
Friday exclaimed, his skin visibly dried up as his life force drained, because it was a sacrifice of life.
Xia Ye didn't care, but when he saw this scene, he was a little moved, tangled for a moment, and also slashed his wrist, sacrificing more blood.
Of course, Xia Ye would not be stupid enough to give such a thing as vitality.
"Thank you!"
Not only Abu, but all the dragonmen had a grateful look on their faces.
It's just that the altar is still unchanged, and the light is still rapidly dimming, and just when everyone is lost, more than a dozen crossbow arrows are silently shot over.
Whoa!
Woad's ears twitched violently, and he shouted: "Enemy attack!"
Xia Ye dodged to the side, and two crossbow arrows grazed his arm and cheek one after another, and shot past, and Abu didn't react so quickly.
Because of bloodletting and the loss of vitality, Abu's feet staggered a little, coupled with the failure of the sacrifice, the future of the tribe fell into a desperate situation, so he lost his mind, so he didn't notice the crossbow arrows.
Poof!
Two bolts pierced Abu's body.
"Great Patriarch!"
"Father!"
The dragons were so frightened that they all ran over in unison.
"Fight!"
Jiaduo and Cao Daoyun shouted.
Woo Guo ran to Xia Ye for the first time.
Xia Frog knew that Xia Ye's subordinates were of a good level and would definitely shout, so she had time left to warn and chant incantations.
The staff was raised, and the thunder shot furiously.
"Rem, Izumiko, defense, protect the Great Chief. ”
Jiaduo commanded.
The two elemental spirits, who were preparing to attack the enemy, heard this and immediately switched to attack.
Whoa!
In front of Izumi Miko, a fountain sprang out, forming three water elements, and in front of Rem, there were two thunder elements.
They resemble a small tornado two meters tall and gray in color, with electric arcs flashing in it.
"Kill all the humans, and the dragonmen try to catch them alive. ”
Zheng Jiaze walked out of the darkness and raised his toes towards Xia Ye: "Hey, we're meeting again." ”
Nearly a hundred guards were killed, and the crowd was crowded.
"It's actually a dragonman? It's too cool to catch one as a slave. ”
Zhongshan Jing licked his lips, his eyes were full of greed, and the other dozen or so second generations of Quan also had similar expressions.
Bang! Bang!
Gunfire rang out, and the first wave of charging guards immediately fell more than a dozen of them. However, the others reacted quickly, some activated the bloodline, and some activated the secret treasure they carried with them to strengthen their defenses.
The lethality of the rifle immediately diminished considerably.
"First team, abandon guns, melee!"
"Second team, reload!"
Another dragon man took on the responsibility of command, clear and ruled.
The dragons were not afraid of death, even if there were few of them, they immediately threw away their rifles, drew their sabers and met them, forming a line of defense, and reloading their companions at the moment.
Jiaduo led the team to defend a small area.
The dragons and the guards collided together, and blood burst out, even if they were inferior in numbers, but they were all in the face, and they did not fall behind, and all the guards who fought against them were all cut to the ground.
"Awesome. ”
Woad whistled.
"Full firepower, no one left!"
Zheng Jiaze roared.
Boom! Boom!
A psychic released a summoning beast, and the trap beast of the mechanic also appeared, making the entire altar area instantly crowded.
After a few lunge sprints, Zhongshan Jing took a vertical leap and crossed the dragonman's head and went straight to Xia Ye on the altar.
"Xia Ye, suffer death!"
Swish!
The scimitar was unsheathed, and a cold light shone lightly.
At this time, the divine will was a ring, worn on the middle finger of Xia Ye's left hand, and after his mind moved, a ray of light immediately burst out, and then turned into a saber.
Xia Ye held it with one hand, not retreating but advancing.
Swish!
The divine will slashed, and the strong wind rose in all directions, like a tsunami, sweeping away the cold light of Zhongshan Jing.
Bite!
Double-knife collision.
The two looked at each other, and their feet slid down, and the two blades rubbed and cut through, and at the same time, their empty hands clenched into fists and slammed them hard.
Bang!
Punches hard, and a wave of qi spreads out.
As soon as the battle began, it was white-hot.
"Untouchables, just such a little ability, dare to be arrogant in front of Lao Tzu?"
Nakayama Jing smirked.
"I don't have a lot of skills, but it's enough to kill you. ”
The other party is ruthless, Xia Ye is even more ruthless, fighting to get injured, and the stunt is played.
Savage killing!
"Maniac!"
Zhongshan Jing's face was shocked, the other party actually exchanged his life for his life? This style of play is powerful enough, and he has found out his own thoughts.
Zhongshan Jing prides himself on being a great nobleman, how can he exchange injuries for injuries with untouchables like Xia Ye, what he wants is to be crushed, so he temporarily retreated.
