Chapter 550: Ritual

"Not only is she willing to spend money, but the technique of blood sacrifice is also extremely clever. It's no wonder that after this round of blood sacrifice, he was able to break through the seal in advance and descend on the Ymir continent first. Seeing that the batch after batch of professionals in the field were forced to kill each other in the sacrificial array, and then turned into a spider to strengthen their own nourishment, Luo Sheng lowered his head slightly, and a fine light flashed in his eyes.

Because his fate was changed by the blood sacrifice of the fish-man god Kosha in his previous life, Luo Sheng was extremely disgusted with blood sacrifices in his previous life, and he specialized in destroying many large-scale blood sacrifices, so he had a lot of research on blood sacrifices.

The general blood sacrifices in the Ymir continent are very simple. All it takes is a simple circle and a channel of communication with the object of sacrifice to be carried out. And the way of treating the sacrifices is also extremely rough, basically brutally tortured and then killed, basically without many tricks. Like the fish-man blood sacrifice that changed the fate of Luo Sheng's two lives, it basically belongs to this type.

However, although this blood sacrifice method has the advantage of being simple and easy, the level is relatively low, and the utilization rate of sacrifices is not high. Like the blood sacrifice that Luo Sheng experienced at the beginning, even if it succeeded, the lives of dozens of people were exchanged for the advancement of the Blood Soul Algae, and the host of the Blood Sacrifice, Old Pike, to upgrade by one career level, and the conversion rate was quite low.

However, the blood sacrifice held in Blackpool City is fundamentally different from the blood sacrifice of the fish people. On the one hand, the scale of this blood sacrifice is far from being comparable to the blood sacrifice of ordinary forces. In the opening alone, hundreds of professionals died in the sacrificial array, and there were even masters at the peak of the silver rank. And among the follow-up sacrifices, Luo Sheng even sensed the existence of many golden levels. This kind of large-scale spending is simply unimaginable to ordinary forces. Even for a big force like Blackpool City, it is a bloody investment.

On the other hand, the sacrificial circle arranged by Blackpool City is also the top-level existence. Not only can it disturb the minds of the sacrifices and cause them to kill each other, but it can also perfectly transform the power generated by the killing. Those crazy, tyrannical souls were refined by the magic circle and thrown into the kingdom of the spider queen. And their flesh and blood, as well as the power in their bodies, were also gathered and became part of the power of the magic circle. If these powers are finally purified and given to someone, even high-level legends can take a steady step forward.

Of course, from this blood sacrifice, the one who gains the most must be the queen spider. Dozens of professionals are killing each other for the sole right to survive, and countless feelings of betrayal, despair, fear, and madness will surely arise in the process. And a large number of high-quality professional souls were refined in extreme madness and despair, generating a huge amount of negative spiritual power. These negative spirits are an excellent tonic for the evil god like the Queen Spider. Although it can't directly improve the godhead of the spider queen, it can provide a lot of divine power and growth resources for the spider queen. It has a huge effect on the spider queen to break the seal and suppress it.

While Luo Sheng was silently observing the operation of the Blood Sacrifice Circle and assessing the impact of the Blood Sacrifice, the entire sacrifice ceremony was always going on. Batch after batch of sacrifices were driven into the circle and fought each other under the influence of the circle, leaving behind a survivor to clean up the debris. Then drive into the next batch, repeating the previous process.

When the process was repeated twenty times and more than a thousand professionals died, it finally stopped for a while. At this time, the entire sacrificial circle had turned blood red, and the entire area was filled with a strange red light.

And in this strange red light, the black spider shadow that had previously merged with the entire sacrificial circle reappeared. The spider, covered in a layer of red light, opened its mouth, and twenty blood-colored silk threads erupted from the mouth and landed on the twenty surviving sacrifices. In an instant, the aura of these survivors who had all reached the silver level skyrocketed, vaguely reaching the level of the gold level.

However, just as the twenty survivors who had gained great strength showed surprised expressions on their faces, as the last batch of sacrifices, the seven gold-level professionals were sent into the sacrificial circle. At the same time, with a deafening roar, a black poisonous python more than twenty meters long sprang up from under the circle, with the huge aura of the legendary level, under the suppression of the red light in the circle, rushed towards the sacrifices in the circle. In an instant, he swallowed a silver-tier human closest to him into his belly.

"Your last battle, the last survivor, will be blessed with the Spider Queen, exempted from the status of a sacrifice!" Amid everyone's exclamations, Barbara raised her scepter and shouted to the people in the sacrificial circle.

Although the power of the sacrificial circle is powerful enough to affect people's divine souls, it is much less effective for gold-level masters whose soul essence has been improved. In this case, although Blackpool City had gathered seven gold-level sacrifices, it was not easy to make them desperate to fight to the death and please the Spider Queen. If there is no means to respond, it is very likely that these golden tiers will collude and fight perfunctorily within the circle. If the sacrifice is brave enough, there may even be a backlash.

Therefore, while Barbara used secret methods to control these gold-level sacrifices, she put the legendary python captured by Gordon on the altar at the same time. With this legendary level demonic beast whose soul was damaged and had lost his mind, he forced these gold-level sacrifices to fight to the death and contribute their greatest value to the spider queen.

And the development of things is also completely consistent with Barbara's design, after realizing that the injured Legendary Rank Poison Python is the most dangerous enemy, whether it is the Silver Rank newly blessed by the power of the magic circle, or the Gold Rank that has just entered, all of them move. After the attack on the sacrificial circle failed, and was instead counterattacked, all the sacrifices banded together and began to deal with the mad poisonous python together.

However, although these sacrifices were united under the pressure of the poisonous python, they could not really cooperate because there was only one winner in the end. In the midst of the battle, there was a lot of intrigue and betrayal. One moment they were still joining forces to attack the poisonous python, and the next moment they would push their companions to the poisonous python to fight for a glimmer of life for themselves. And after finally desperately killing the poisonous python whose strength was suppressed, the remaining sacrifices immediately swung their knives at the allies who had just fought side by side, until in the end only the only victor remained.

But before the last gold-level warrior could enjoy the fruits of victory, the venomous python that had already died spewed out the last mouthful of venom under the control of the magic circle, directly dissolving the seriously injured warrior. All the sacrifices were eventually destroyed, and all of them became the nourishment of the spider queen.
