Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Sacrifice

"Stupid! What are you doing?"

The falling shadow yelled at Sylvia, swinging its crosssword at the corpses of the other guards controlled by the giant eyeballs.

"Leo! After seeing who the black shadow was, Sylvia instantly understood what was going on just now, understood why she and the others were discovered, and couldn't help but scold Leo.

Just scolding and scolding, her subordinates' movements were not slow at all, raising their hands to shoot arrows into the eyes of the cyclops in front of them, and at the same time swinging their short swords, cutting at the weakness of the cyclops' very obvious lower limbs.

Although he had already exposed himself, Leo was not in a hurry to destroy the remaining corpses of the guards around him, he chose to use the cross sword swordsmanship that he had just sorted out by the subbrain system to fight with these corpses, and through the hands of these corpses of guards, he was familiar with this never-before-seen melee cold weapon skill.

Although these guard corpses no longer have self-awareness, they still have the instinct to fight, and the swordsmanship they cast is still fierce, allowing Leo to experience life and death crises several times, and he also quickly mastered the swordsmanship of this cross sword in this kind of life-and-death fight.

However, even as Leo was dealing with a siege of multiple corpse guards, he was still able to be distracted by other things.

For example, Sylvia's dexterous movements are like dexterous flower butterflies in front of the three catalyzed cyclops, which can be seen and touched.

While dodging attacks, her arrows also pierced the Cyclops' body with precision, and the psionic energy on the special arrows not only caused lacerations to the wounds, but also spread around the wounds, destroying the surrounding organs and muscles, making the Cyclops' movements slower and more difficult.

The most lethal of all is her dagger with special psionic powers, which cuts wounds that do not heal and speed up the flow of blood.

In less than a minute, more than a third of the blood on the Cyclops had flowed out, and if it weren't for the power of that purple gas, they would have fallen long ago.

The battle between the knights on the other side was nearing the end, and the knights of the Orthodox Church, who had a lot of experience in fighting the enemy, had already killed three knights of the Secret Church, but they also paid for the life of one of their companions.

The only thing that was calm was the darkness, and the monsters that those mountain people had turned into seemed to have been completely swallowed by the darkness, and there was no movement.

However, these objects of attention are not the focus of Leo's distraction, his focus is on the altar.

By this time, the Speaker of the Continental Congress had climbed up to the altar, stood beside the high priest, said a few words to the high priest, and then lay down on the altar, took off his clothes, and put the skin on his chest.

The high priest did not hesitate, and while reciting aloud the prayer in an unknown language, he took out a sacrificial knife, directly peeled off a piece of skin from the speaker's chest, and then put the piece of skin on it, and held his hands high and plunged the sacrificial knife into his chest, offering himself to the huge eyeball.

At this moment, in Leo's spiritual vision, the huge eyeball suspended above the altar condensed with spiritual energy and consciousness instantly dissipated, turning into a cloud of purple smoke and instilling into the skin on the speaker's body below, and at the same time, the skin also merged into the speaker's chest.

Seeing this scene, Leo understood that the time had come for his full reach, so he immediately activated the battle mode of the perfect control skill, and the speed of the crossed longsword in his hand instantly increased several times, and the sword body seemed to disappear with only two rays of light.

And these two rays of light passed through the siege of the knightly swords guarding the corpses around them with extremely accurate attacks, completely cutting off the heads of these guarding corpses, and at the same time, the psionic energy attached to the long sword also washed away the eyeball psionic energy that controlled the corpse, completely destroying the possibility of the corpse fighting again.

After destroying the corpses of those guards, Leo's movements did not stop at all, and under perfect control, the speed of the whole person advanced to the extreme, turning into a gust of wind, passing through the Sylvia and the cyclops who were still fighting in front of him, flying to the altar, kicking the dead high priest, and slashing at the lying speaker with the sword in his right hand.

However, the Speaker, who had been with his eyes closed, opened his eyes in an instant, revealing a pair of eyes with dark purple eyes, and at the same time, his hand was stretched out at an extremely fast speed, grabbing the blade of the Cross Longsword.

The cross sword that should have been able to easily split this hand was blocked by a spiritual energy shield with a strength index of up to six hundred points, and this layer of shield also spread to the speaker's body, and the momentum on the speaker's body gradually increased, as if he had perfectly accepted the arrival of the huge eyeball.

Although the situation in front of him was unexpectedly bad, Leo was not affected in any way, and after the attack of his right hand was fruitless, he immediately transformed the twin instincts of his left hand into the strongest sacrificial knife state, and pierced the skin on the opponent's chest before the opponent completely fused the consciousness and power of the giant eyeball.

The protective shield formed by the strength of six hundred psionic energy was enough to resist the psionic weapons of everyone present, but in the face of the extremely fragile bone knife in Leo's hand, it was as unobstructed as air, and it was easily inserted into the skin, and pierced through the heart of the speaker.

"Damn it!"

After the sacrificial knife was inserted into the target's body, Leo did not have the slightest joy, but cursed in his heart for a lifetime, and the first thing he wanted was to let go of the hand he was holding, so as not to face the gaze of the Lord of Turbidity and Lightness after the sacrifice was successful.

However, he thought well, but he couldn't do it, because his hand seemed to be one with the sacrificial knife and could not be released, and at the same time, a suction came out of the sacrificial knife, and not only the Speaker, the spiritual consciousness of the huge eyeballs, or the soul, but also Leo's spiritual consciousness fell into it.

Leo found himself once again trapped in a subspace void, only that there was one more living space controller than the empty subspace where the Chaos Fool was.

The moment he entered here, Leo could feel that his daily value of the will was rapidly decreasing, and he didn't wait for the auxiliary brain system to alert him to danger, and immediately activated the mechanical will, allowing himself to enter that state of absolute sanity, and then he turned his head to look behind him.

I saw that the subspace behind Leo was all covered with bubbles, and each bubble could see a nebula spinning in it, and any bubble was as huge as a planet for Leo.

Before Leo could find the eyes in the bubble, a light shot out of a bubble with a purple nebula and hit Leo's body directly, directly knocking him out of the subspace of the Lord of Turbidity and Lightness before he understood what was going on.

After a moment's pause, the scene returned to the altar of the wasteland, where Leo still held the sacrificial knife in his hand, the fallen Speaker was truly dead, and the skin was rapidly decaying, losing all its strength.

Behind him, the battle under the altar was still the same as just now, as if the subspace he had just entered had only taken less than a second.

At this time, Leo could feel that his body had changed, it should be that he had received the gift of the ancient god of the Lord of Turbidity and Light Spirit after the successful sacrifice, but now was not the time to check the personal data interface, he could only put this matter aside and solve the other troubles first.

Leo turned the Sacrificial Knife and Cross Sword twins back into fist form, jumped up directly from the altar, fell towards the three Cyclops who were still stubbornly fighting against Sylvia, and punched the head of one of the Cyclops in the air, shattering his head instantly.

Then, just as he was about to hit the ground, he spun around and punched the other cyclops right in the back, cracking his stomach with the double punch, and even breaking his spine.

The last cyclops may have seen that the situation was not good and wanted to escape, but Sylvia on the side directly cut off one of his legs and fell to the ground.

Before the fallen giant could turn over, Sylvia's short sword was inserted into his skull, completely wringing his brain into paste, and the other giant who had broken his waist and was not dead was quickly killed by Sylvia's arrow.

Seeing that the last cyclops was solved, Leo directly pulled out the queen, and without looking at it, he fired two robberies at the church knights who were still fighting over there. Two psionic bullets struck the two unsuspecting pagan knights in an instant, slicing through their skulls and killing them instantly.

At this time, the darkness that trapped the monsters that those mountain people had transformed into quickly receded, and it turned back into the lady in black.

The noblewoman did not stand still after recuperation, but quickly retreated, away from the one-eyed monsters who had not yet recovered from the darkness.

At this time, Sylvia looked at these one-eyed monsters and hesitated, obviously considering whether these monsters could be saved, but the result disappointed her. Then she decisively raised her mechanical bow and crossbow with a catapult in her hand, and fired a special bomb at the group of one-eyed monsters that she regarded as a deadly hole card.

I saw that the bomb crossed an arc in the air and landed in the middle of the one-eyed monster group, and exploded in an instant, and a burst of flame spread out from the explosion point, enveloping all the one-eyed monsters around it, and then retracted violently and disappeared. The monsters were reduced to ashes in the flames, and the ground was burned to the ground, and some crystals could be seen.

Leo happened to disarm all the active psionic skills on his body at this time, and he couldn't help but gasp when he saw this incredibly hot flame.

At this time, Sylvia suddenly turned around, aimed the mechanical repeater in his hand at Leo, and said coldly: "Leo Dodd, why are you here?"

Seeing Sylvia's behavior, the two church knights also stood silently behind Leo, blocking his retreat, but the lady in black did not come forward, but stood away as if she was showing her attitude to Leo.

"Are you doing this to the people you just helped you with?" Leo looked at the two scarred Church Knights behind him, then at Sylvia, and smiled, "Or do you think you can pose a threat to me with your people now?"

Sylvia was silent for a while, put down the mechanical bow and crossbow in her hand, and nodded to the church knight behind Leo, before asking with a solemn expression, "Didn't you go to the Silvermoon Tower......?"

"Who told you that I went to the Silvermoon Tower?" Leo said with a calm face, "Is it because I traded the information of the Silvermoon Tower from you?"

Sylvia didn't refute, she realized that she had misunderstood, but her arrogant personality also made her unwilling to apologize, but deliberately looked for something to do, walking towards the altar to check on the Speaker's situation.

Seeing that Leo was not an enemy, the two church knights turned back to the corpse of their companion, crouched down, removed a string of identities from the corpse of their companion, and removed the helmet, revealing the face of a gray-haired old man under the helmet.

They took out a special metal test tube from their waists, and poured the liquid in the test tube onto the head of their companion's corpse, and watched as the liquid quickly penetrated and spread throughout the corpse, spreading throughout the body in the blink of an eye.

As the corpse seemed to have evaporated, it turned into a star, and flew into the air like a firefly, scattering in all directions, and the two church knights stood quietly beside the corpse, praying silently, making the surrounding atmosphere extremely solemn.

When the corpse was left with only a piece of armor and other equipment, the knights of the church skillfully arranged and wrapped them and put them on their backs.

"It's pitiful, I've fought all my life, but I have only left a name, written on the death book!" At this time, the black noblewoman had already walked up to Leo's side, and watched the ritual of teaching the knight to dispose of the corpses of her companions, with some mockery and some sighs.

Leo didn't speak, because the scene in front of him reminded him of the scene when he was in the Earth Federation when he was disposing of the corpses of his comrades, how similar the two were. In comparison, these Church Knights are fine, at least they have a real name, and their biological weapons only deserve a factory number.

By this time, Sylvia had carefully examined the bodies of the High Priest and the Speaker, poured the oil on them, and burned the corpses along with the entire altar, and taught the knights to do the same with the corpses of the other pagan knights.

Leo saw Sylvia and the others coming over and said, "Are you going to leave now, or do you want to rest here?" I rented a hunting house nearby, and although it wasn't as good as a high-end inn or hotel, I was able to at least have a cup of hot water to clean up my injuries. ”

Sylvia hesitated for a moment, for some reason she felt that she would always get out of control when she was with Leo, which made her dislike it, so she was also a little reluctant to get along with Leo. It's just that when she was about to refuse, she couldn't help but look at the already scarred church knight beside her, and at the lady in black.

"Don't look at me! I've spent a lot of mana just now, and I'm too tired to do it. The lady in black said bluntly.

"You lead the way," Sylvia said, nodding at Leo.

Leo didn't mind Sylvia's cold tone, the reason why he proposed to go to the hunting house was mainly to extract the matter of today's secret church from the mouths of Sylvia and others.

So Leo led the way, and the group walked towards the hunting house in the woods.
