Chapter 44: The Summoning (Part II)

Blasphemous prayers rang out in the dim cavern, and Bajoyf half-knelt in front of the circle and began to call to the nether demons. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The refined blood-colored crystal has long been placed on the nodes of the circle, and with Bajoyf's chanting, the dark red brilliance is filled with the carvings of the circle, and the negative energy of the journey is absorbed into it, providing power for the operation of the circle.

These crystals are the result of a hard week for the bloodied Fallen.

Contrary to what people think, the demon summoning ritual does not mean that the corpses can be piled up randomly next to the magic circle, and the way of handling the sacrifices is also different due to the different targets of the summoning.

The more powerful the demons, the more arbitrary they were to dispose of the sacrifices, as the plane barrier did not stop them from absorbing blood food.

On the contrary, the low-level demons do not have the ability to cross borders to enjoy blood food, so in order to summon them, the Fallen have to process the sacrifices at a deeper level, so that the "temptation" can pass through the plane barriers, and thus lure them to descend on the main plane.

The difference in each other's requirements also caused different results, the high-level demons always projected to the main plane, and the low-level demons risked their lives to descend directly into the main body.

Moreover, the power consumption of the high-level demon formation projection is generally the fifth to eighth layer where the power is obtained from the blood sacrifice, so this is completely a business.

Moreover, even if the demon's projection died, it would not have any effect on his body. There is no demon who doesn't like this kind of business that only makes money and doesn't lose money, but unfortunately, projection is only the patent of high-level demons.

The difference between low-level demons is that they who need their main body to pass through the plane barrier not only have the essence of the blood sacrifice to provide guidance and help, but also need to spend a lot of their own strength to build a cross-border passage. Under such sacrifices, if the temptation of the sacrifice is not enough, they will never choose to come.

This is also why the nobles were able to use the reason of "blood sacrifice" to coerce the temple to bow their heads, because the more high-level demons have lower requirements for blood sacrifices.

Especially at the level of the Demon Grand Duke, it has reached the point of starvation.

"If the quality is not enough, the quantity will be made", as long as the quantity is enough, whether it is a goblin or a dragon, he can get a corresponding share of the power to project to the main plane. And the nobles who have a territory as their basis, the efficiency of completing the blood sacrifice is really high and terrifying.

Therefore, for the sake of the stability of the "faith", the temple had to return its rights to the nobility.

Seeing that the Fallen chose to use the "Blood Crystal" to initiate the summoning ritual, Mephistopheles's last bit of worry was put down.

Although through the analysis of the number of sacrifices, Mephistopheles can already confirm that this is a ritual to summon low-level demons, but the difference among low-level demons is also very large.

Of course, this kind of thing can be guessed without analysis. After all, if the ritual of summoning high-level demons did not have the protection of the local lord, it would definitely be nipped in the bud by the temple in the first place.

Although the Frozen Coast does not have a temple power, the ancestors of each of its nobles are the charismatic knights of the "Winter Goddess".

Although they are firmly on the side of the nobility because of their own interests, unlike the nobility of other regions, they have a deep hatred for demons.

Small-scale blood rituals may be able to be carried out in concealment, and large-scale blood rituals such as summoning high-level demons are not held on the frozen shores.

Although there is no temple to protect it, this is the place where the "Winter Goddess" fell back then. Low-level demons are fine, but high-level demons who have mastered the rules are absolutely unwilling to live here for even a second.

Of course, it won't have any impact if the Demon Grand Duke can come in person, but if the projection comes, it will definitely suffer a lot.

Coupled with the fact that the forces of the "Dead Die" are entrenched here, it is not unreasonable to say that the frozen coast is a chaotic forbidden place.

Over the years, there has been little news of the Fallen summoning demons on the Frozen Coast, just because the various lords attach great importance to such things, and they will strike a thunderous blow if they find the slightest clue. The degenerates who dare to make waves here are all sick in their brains.

Just like this time, if Mephistopheles hadn't secretly broken the link and modified some clues, the guards of the Morte Leader would have already linked the "missing person" with the Fallen, as long as they pursued it carefully, there would be absolutely no problem in uprooting this group of secret rats.

Of course, Bajoyif is not stupid, the reason why he chose to carry out the summoning activity in the Morte Territory is also because he heard about what happened to the Morte family, so he wanted to take advantage of this loophole.

After all, because of what happened last time, the temple has repeatedly increased its search for their group of fish that have slipped through the net, and it is probably only a matter of time before they are arrested and put in the Inquisition.

"Blood crystals, with their numbers, what has descended is just a silver-rank demon, and it's not tricky. ”

Mephistopheles crushed one of the brooches on his chest, activating the isolation circle he had set up outside the cave.

The chaotic aura brought by the arrival of demons will not only transform and erode the surrounding environment, but also attract the prying eyes of other powerful people. Of course, the group of wandering guys didn't care about this, but Mephistopheles, who ran the Morte Territory as his own territory, certainly couldn't ignore this, not to mention, he didn't want to be spied on by others about his battle with the demons.

This is also the reason why he is so concerned about the demons summoned by the Fallen, in fact, with his current strength, any low-level demon can ignore it.

And with the remnants of the goddess's rule power, the projection of a high-level demon could not descend on the frozen coast at all.

As for the ontology coming, not to mention that it is difficult for them to even enter the main plane, even if they can enter, they will not take this risk.

However, even though the strength was enough to ignore all the low-level demons, Mephistopheles was still reluctant to face some of these powerful guys.

It's not that he can't fight, but the uncontrollable fight can easily expose his strange methods to the eyes of others, and this kind of loss can't be made up for by just a demon's corpse.

Therefore, he broke away from the patrolling guards, covered up the traces of the degenerate, and came alone and stealthily, just to quietly collect the demon's soul.

As Bajoyf's chanting grew louder, the fluctuations of the summoning circle began to rise violently.

Most of the fallen people subconsciously took a step towards the circle, wondering whether they were curious about the arrival of demons or trying to snatch the abyssal aura that followed.

John stood behind everyone and did not follow them as he moved.

The trembling figure from time to time indicated that he was suppressing something. Originally, he was able to successfully regain the initiative of consciousness, but as the demon descended into the epiphany, the roaring fear caused his reason to fall into the abyss of destruction again.

Mephistopheles' slender palm pressed against the hilt of his sword, and he knew that the harvest was coming......
