Blackwater Lake is a small city-state north of Negan that controls a small city and two villages, named for its proximity to Blackwater Lake.

In addition, because this area is relatively barren, lacks oil and water, and lacks specific resources for warfare, it is rare for gangs and forces to choose such a place as a foothold, except for small forces that cannot get along outside.

As a result, Blackwater Lake City, a small city that has been less affected by the war than the rest of Negan.

And it is such a small corner that is not taken seriously, and today it has ushered in a group of uninvited guests.

A group of men in black cloaks sneak into Blackwater Lake City. They all walked with their heads bowed, never looking around, very purposeful, and their bodies were all covered by dense black robes, leaving no gaps, and there was no way to tell who they were. However, if anyone saw it, they might be able to see the marks of the occasional flash of scimitar in the outline of their robes.

They came to a remote house in the south of the city.

The leader skillfully entered the side room, and then opened a secret door that looked like a wall in the midst of the rubble, revealing a black hole, and then some of the people in the group took out a few torches. In the light of the fire, they stepped into the black hole's spiral staircase and into the dark underground chamber.

The underground chamber is built at a depth of 10 meters underground, and the whole chamber is very simple, as if it was hastily built because of the rush of work, and the wooden roof beams for support and stone pillars for reinforcement can be seen everywhere in the entire chamber. Only the floor of the entire chamber was fairly flat. In the very center of the chamber is a huge circle, and in the center of the circle is carved a huge spider.

After the group all entered the secret room, the leader slowly lifted the hood covering his head, revealing a delicate face, bright silver hair, curved eyebrows, big eyes, a slightly slender nose and slightly upturned corners of the mouth, all of which showed that the woman in front of her had a proud face, if it weren't for her dark complexion and pointed ears, then someone would definitely regard her as a human beauty.

"Chief, are we really going to activate this circle, you know, once we activate it, then ......" At this moment, one of the attendants who followed closely behind the woman also took off his hood, and from his face it turned out to be a dark elf.

"Nina, do not question the will of my lord, according to the will of my lord, the time has come to activate it, and if it is violated, you know the end of my anger. The woman at the head said lightly.

When the woman named Nina heard the woman's words, her body shook violently a few times, as if she remembered something very bad.

"Okay, I won't say anything else, if you don't want to be punished when my lord returns, then start this circle with me, otherwise, don't blame me for not saving you when the time comes. After saying that, the woman came straight to the front of the circle and knelt down gently.

Seeing this, the many black-robed people who followed her also helplessly followed the woman who knelt around the circle, each of them took out a knife from their arms, and then resolutely cut their palms with the knife, and then pressed the palms that were constantly oozing blood to the preset position in the circle.

As the bloody palms were pressed up, the runes on the magic circle began to shine one by one, and the mysterious runes flowed one by one, and drops of blood flowed into the array, and the originally bright silver magic light was gradually dyed blood red.

"Ah, why are you still sucking blood, why don't you stop?" Suddenly, an exclamation broke the silence of the secret room.

"Ah, I can't get my hand out. Ying and hers is another coquettish voice, if you usually hear this kind of sound, then it is definitely a rare enjoyment, however, at this time, the owner of the voice is unusually panicked, at this time the crack in her palm is gradually increasing, and her arm is gradually drying and shrinking, the original delicate and smooth skin has gradually become rough and dry, as if it is a tree root that has grown for a thousand years.

"Chief, what's going on, is there something wrong with the magic array? At this time, Nina's voice also came.

"There is no way. The woman's face was abnormally rosy, "This circle originally needs to be activated with blood and soul, how can it meet the requirements of the Lord without such a powerful material as fuel." Therefore, dedicate yourselves to the cause of my Lord. ”

"Hmph, I don't believe it, why can Rose take our lives away at will. One of the first girls to speak pulled out her scimitar from her waist with a thud, and then with a fierce force, she cut off her left arm. Its determination and decisiveness are staggering.

"It's useless, when you step into this secret room, your fate is already sealed, although your determination is admirable, but it is of no use. The leader woman commented lightly, and there was no emotion in her voice, as if she was completely commenting on something that had nothing to do with her.

As if to confirm her words, when the girl's arm fell into the magic circle, as if it was stimulated by something, the magic circle suddenly rose a bloody light to wrap the severed limb, and then digested the severed limb at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the blood light that devoured the severed limb seemed to be not satisfied, it raised its head like a python, and then, as soon as it leaned over, it wrapped around the girl who was about to get up and retreat, and then, dragged the girl who was constantly struggling into the magic array, and then, the girl disappeared in a terrible howl。

"The more intense you struggle, the faster the magic circle will devour, and if I were you, I would take this time to reflect on my previous life, and then chant a prayer at the end to praise the greatness of my Lord. When the leader girl finished speaking, she closed her eyes and said nothing.

"I don't believe it," a girl who had a good relationship with the girl who was devoured before also drew her scimitar and slashed towards the magic array, but before her scimitar could see the top of the magic array, it was blocked by a faint blood light. There was a soft thud, and a metallic sound rang out.

Then, before the girl could retract the scimitar, a blood-colored silk thread wrapped the girl in a strong knot, and then dragged the girl into the magic array. The mournful cries continued to echo in the secret room.

Just as everyone was looking desperate, suddenly a rumbling sound came in from outside.
