Chapter 1: The Girl in the Barrel
γBlue Villageγ
This is a village near Eagle Soul City, and this village is different from the other villages around it. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ infoThere is an altar of several thousand square meters in Bilan Village, such a large altar, even in Eagle Soul City, there are not a few.
On the altar in the center of the village, more than 800 tied girls from all over the world were lined up in a phalanx. They were wrapped in a thin white cloth, and all exterior ornaments and even dentures had been removed.
The girls' eyes were red with tears.
It is a legal ritual that has been around for a thousand years, and every full moon night, the village of Blue worships 49 maidens to the mysterious Blue Lake.
The event attracts tourists from all over the world every month, and now, a large crowd gathers around the altar.
A middle-aged woman dressed in a priest's uniform walked up to the altar under the greeting of the villagers, and the woman glanced at the crowd of onlookers and said coldly, "There are so many onlookers this month." β
By placing their hands on the girl's head, the woman examines the girl's physical condition and determines whether a girl is suitable for sacrifice.
"Under 14 years old, tow away. β
"It's ugly, hold on. β
"What the hell? Even 20-year-olds bought it in and dragged it away. β
The girls who were dragged away breathed a sigh of relief, while the girls who remained on the altar continued to sob.
"Not a virgin, drag it away. β
"Menstrual period, drag away. β
"There's a virus in the body, drag it away. β
"There are scars, drag them away. β
A spectator sighed: "It's really amazing that you can even check this out!
There are fewer and fewer maidens on the altar.
The woman walked up to a dark blue-haired girl and frowned. This girl has sapphire eyes, she is less than 1.45 tall, and she is still a boy-like "Princess Taiping", is this girl really 14 years old?
The woman put her hand on the girl's head, "I just turned 14, but -- there's a bullet in the middle of the head." β
The girl's eyes widened and she cried, could it ...... Don't you have to be a sacrifice?
"It doesn't affect your blood, though. Haha...... "The woman leaves.
The girl trembled with fear.
After the women had walked through it, there were only about a hundred maidens left on the altar, and in the end the women kept the 49 maidens who were better looking.
A villager suddenly ran up to the woman in a panic, not knowing what to say.
"What's the panic," the woman sneered, "do you think this kind of thing hasn't happened for thousands of years? β
The maidens were placed in wooden barrels, which were strung together by a thick red rope.
The woman walked to the center of the altar and recited a long incantation.
After reciting it for a while, an old foreign adventurer said impatiently, "This is the legendary spell that can communicate with the earth gods, and how long will it take?"
A bespectacled blonde teenager said: "The spell is sometimes long and sometimes short, and according to the formula given by some people on the Internet, the length of the spell this month is about 45 minutes. β
"There is a formula for this spell, strange. The old adventurer touched the back of his head.
"Actually, no one can crack this spell, and the spell time is calculated mathematically. The glasses boy said.
The old adventurer was silent, he didn't know what mathematical induction was, and in a world where magic brought far more benefits to people than science, many countries did not feel the need to learn most of the science.
In the evening, the woman ordered the villagers to put the barrels into the blue lake.
As its name suggests, the water is crystal clear, but it is still bottomless. No one knows about the size of the Emerald Lake, because there is mysterious magic all over the lake, and people walking along the lake are easily affected by teleportation magic and get lost, and the place where Emerald Village is located has electromagnetic interference magic that cannot be measured by satellites.
The surface of the blue lake was calm, but the wooden barrel placed on it, as if being led by some force, slowly drifted towards the center of the lake until it disappeared from the view of the onlookers.
Except for the cries of the maidens, there seemed to be no sound on the entire turquoise lake.
Suddenly, a small whirlpool appeared on the calm surface of the lake, and in a few seconds, the whirlpool grew larger and larger, like a tornado capable of swallowing everything, rolling up the silt at the bottom of the lake, making the lake muddy, and finally, the whirlpool sucked all the barrels into it.
Soon, the lake returned to calm.
γCorpse Caveγ
In a dark, damp cavern, a man's voice rang out, "Report to your lordship, a total of 322 people have come to the corpse cave, the red rope was cut at the critical moment, and the wooden barrels are scattered around the corpse cave. β
"Send some people to collect the offerings. β
"Yes. β
In a pitch-black tunnel, several blue flames slowly burned. Next to the blue flame, there was a drenched teenager and an equally wet barrel.
The boy had short green hair, and he wore a pink turban on his head that was completely inconsistent with his handsomeness. The young man's eyes were slightly sharp, he should be an orc.
At the moment when the teleportation magic array of the blue lake was activated, the green-haired boy cut the red rope that connected this barrel to the other barrels. On the altar of Bilan Village, the green-haired boy set his eyes on the girl in the barrel, a big beauty with fair skin, delicate facial features, and a good figure, so the green-haired boy has been secretly remembering the location of the barrel where this beauty is.
What a bliss it is to be alone with a big beautiful woman in a dark and scary tunnel!
The green-haired boy swallowed and gently opened the barrel.
"What!" exclaimed the green-haired boy.
Inside the barrel was not a big beauty, but a flat-chested girl with dark blue hair.
The girl climbed out of the barrel with snot and tears on her face, "Thank you for saving me, my name is Tianxi, thank you ......"
Tianxi was only wrapped in a thin white cloth at this time, and looked at the green-haired boy pitifully, and the green-haired boy reluctantly took off the coat he had prepared for the big beauty, "My name is chic." β
Chic manipulated the blue flame, dried the clothes and coat on his body, and handed the coat to Tianxi.
"Alas," sighed dashing, "let's go find the god of the earth, it must be very lively." β
"No," Tianxi shook his head, "he'll eat me." β
"Do you believe this kind of ghost story that deceives children?"
"Of course not. β
With Tianxi on his back, he walked aimlessly on the tunnel by the light of the blue flame.
"There's a barrel up ahead!" exclaimed Tianxi.
Could this be the big beauty? Chic and excited, put down Tianxi, and couldn't wait to open the barrel.
"Ahh
The girl inside the barrel turned into a withered corpse!
"There are no other footprints here other than these two fresh footprints?" Tianxi said worriedly, "Could it be that the Earth God could directly sense the location of the sacrifices and teleport over to suck their blood?"
"Find the other barrels!" Picking up Tianxi in a dashing manner, he ran quickly through the tunnel.
It didn't take long for Chick to suddenly extinguish the flames and hide behind a large head, and the tunnel was dark again.
Gradually, there were footsteps in the tunnel, and the orange light was getting closer and closer.
"What do you mean that we have lost contact with the outside world?"
"Is this place surrounded by enchantments?"
"I'm afraid so. β
"The Scout Mage has found the magic pulse here, send the message of the pulse to all the brethren, and we will gather at the beginning of the pulse. β
"Good. β
"What are you doing with the two little rats there?"
Chic and Tianxi walked out.
An old man, a young girl wrapped in a white cloth, and a young man in his 20s in a suit.
I didn't expect this girl to be a girl who looked at her on the altar in a chic way! She has a height of more than 1.7 meters, delicate facial features, slightly serious eyes, and a figure that makes chic want to spray nosebleeds under the white cloth.
When he first saw this girl on the altar, his heart was broken, but now that he was so close to the girl, he felt creepy, where did the girl change, and he couldn't say it.
"Haha, my name is Chic, and I'm an adventurer who came here to explore. This is an offering picked up on the side of the road. Xiao pointed to Tianxi behind him, "Miss, I'm afraid it's not good for you to walk here barefoot, do you want me to carry you?"
"How can my young lady carry it if you want to?" said the young man in the suit a little angrily.
"Forest, don't talk nonsense with them. The maiden left with the old man and the young man.
"Aren't we going to the gods of the earth, why are we going in the opposite direction with them?"
"My gut told me it was dangerous in that direction, and I decided, I've had enough, I'm going back to the ground. β
"You don't look like such a timid person. Tianxi muttered quietly.
"You don't look like that bold either. He smiled.
"Actually," Tianxi put his head to his ear, "I got information that the earth god sacrificed by the people of Bilan Village is actually the stele lotus bead from a thousand years ago, and the people of AD are now coming to pick up the stele lotus bead." β
"Is the stele lotus bead really that powerful? So many people came to grab it. There was no surprise in his chic expression, just a smile.
"Chic, haven't you heard the legend of the seal tablet and the white lotus?"
"If they were as powerful as the legend says, the Protoss wouldn't have been exterminated! β
"You're right," Tianxi reluctantly glanced back, "I really want to see the moment that changed history." AD or World Government?"
