As the time for the start of the sacrificial ceremony got closer and closer, there were more and more people in the altar square, not only those families whose bodies had mutated, but also ordinary people were allowed to enter the castle by the castle guards, giving people the feeling that the entire Lyon Territory had come here.

However, it is interesting to note that no matter how crowded the square is, there are always a few places in the square that will be vacated, and only a few people will stand there, and the stone platform where Leo and the others are located is also a vacant place.

Originally, Leo and Sylvia didn't want to be noticed, so they chose a place near the edge to stay, but they didn't expect to be noticed now, which made them wonder if the place they were in was only for special people.

Before Leo could figure out what was going on, the eyes of those who were watching them shifted elsewhere, for something more important had already arrived in the square.

I saw in the distance, a group of special image of the family is slowly walking from outside the square into the square area deliberately vacated for them, the leader of the family is a huge body, the whole body is covered with a layer of armor giant, followed by a group of scorpions on the lower body, the upper body is knight dress of the half-human monster.

As soon as the group entered the square, cheers rang out in the square, and almost everyone shouted slogans such as the glory of the lord and the victory of the lord.

Undoubtedly, this giant should be Prodi, the lord of the Leon Lord, and judging by the blood stains on his and his half-knights' armor that had not yet been wiped off, they must have just come down from the battlefield.

Compared to the people in the square, who can only judge their strength from the hideous appearance of this team, Leo feels the inner strength of these mutant clans more deeply, such as the energy fluctuation strength of most of them is almost equivalent to that of a second-level psionic, a few centaur knights have reached the level of a third-level psion, and that lord Prodi is the most powerful, and the energy fluctuations equivalent to a fifth-level psionic indicate that he has evolved to another life level.

This can easily be judged from the reactions of the surrounding clans who are within the range of the lord Prodi's energy radiation, because those clansmen all instinctively lower their heads because of the suppression of the life form, and many of them are clergy.

"Armor!" Sylvia whispered to Leo.

Leo nodded when he heard this, and said, "Yes, it's armor!"

Although the others standing next to Leo and them heard the conversation between the two, they didn't understand the meaning of their words at all, and they all felt that the two of them mentioned armor because the armor that covered the whole body of Lord Prodi was very powerful and shocking.

But they didn't know that Leo and Sylvia were talking like that because they both saw something wrong with Lord Prodi's armor, or more directly, Lord Prodi wasn't the giant inside the armor, but the armor itself.

Both Leo and Sylvia have a lot of information about the Abyss and know a little about all kinds of magical species in the Abyss, so the moment they saw Lord Prodi appear, they all recognized that the armor on Prodi's body was Blancuta, a very special parasitic race in the Abyss.

The parasitic race is a very special race in the abyss, almost all parasitic races are very weak in their original state, even an ordinary person can easily kill them, but when they combine with the host and then assimilate the host, their strength will change with the strength of the host.

Blancuta is the best of this parasitic race, because after he parasitizes the host, relying on conventional means cannot make him strong at all, only endless war can make him strong in a short period of time, because they feed on the cruelty, rage, bloodthirstiness and other negative emotions exuded by the creatures in the war, so most of the races in the abyss are not willing to call his real name Blancuta, but prefer to call him Bernicota Berserker.

Although Blancuta is so dangerous, there are still many abyssal races that are willing to take the initiative to let Blancuta parasitize, because the process of Blancuta's assimilation of the host is relative, and the host also assimilates Blancuta at this time, and the two sides compete for will, and whoever loses will be assimilated.

However, it is almost always the host that is eventually assimilated, as parasitic races like Blancuta always have some racial abilities that can weaken the host's knowledge.

It's just that, even if it's so dangerous, those weak races in the abyss will still do whatever it takes to increase their strength in order to survive in the harsh environment of the abyss, and the parasitic races that can increase their strength in a short period of time are obviously the best choice.

Interestingly, among the many abyssal races willing to cooperate with a parasitic race like Blancuta, there are the most survivor races left over from the destroyed world that has slipped into the abyss.

When Leo and Sylvia recognized the armor on Lord Prodi as Blancuta, they both agreed that Lord Prodi had been assimilated.

But when they saw Lord Prodi sitting down on the seat prepared for him, they lowered their posture and talked to the low-level clergy around them, they all realized that they had misjudged, Lord Prodi's current state was different from the situation they were referring to, and they could not judge according to the experience of the abyss in their memory.

The reason why they think this way is because Blancuta's parasitic assimilation, whether active or passive, no matter who is assimilated in the end, the final beneficiary will be affected by some bad effects in the process of assimilation, such as a character called arrogance will be infinitely magnified.

This amplified arrogance makes the host not only disdain to communicate with anyone weaker than him, but even if he encounters someone stronger than him, he will still use an extremely contemptuous attitude, and only a powerful being whose life form is far beyond him can make him lower his arrogant head.

Therefore, when Lord Prodi lowered his posture and communicated with the low-level clergy whose strength was far weaker than him, it had already proved that he had not assimilated Blancuta, or rather, he had assimilated Blancuta, but the bad effects of it had been erased by a great being, and here, this great being was undoubtedly the mother of filth.

This also proves once again that the Mother of Filth has a strong restraining effect on the power of the Abyss, even the Abyssal Race, and Leo and Sylvia feel that it is not a good idea to use the power of the Abyss to disguise it now.

After thinking of this, Leo and Sylvia secretly communicated for a while, and then they both removed their disguises and hid their respective abyssal powers.

Because both of them wore burqas and hoods, covering their faces, and the eyes of the people around them all fell on Lord Prodi and the altar, even if they returned to their human form, they did not attract the attention of the people around them.

At this time, there was some commotion on the periphery of the square again, and then another group of men and horses entered the square along the sacrificial avenue, and stood next to Lord Prodi's team, the specially reserved open space.

There is nothing special about this team of centaurs, and it can even be said to be very ordinary, because this team of centaurs are all ordinary people, and there doesn't seem to be any mutation of dependents, the only thing worth noting is that the clothes on their bodies are completely different from the clothes of the people around them, and they look more modern, and this modernity does not mean that the modern world of Velon, but the modern civilization of the universe, because Leo saw the shadow of the clerical uniform of the Earth Federation from the clothes of these people, and it is obvious that the clothes on these people are modified from the clerical standard clothing。

Although this group of people and horses are all ordinary people, the surrounding locals who worship the mutation of the clan have behaved completely different from their mentality, and they are actually taking the initiative to salute these ordinary people, and the people who salute also include the clergy and the lord Prodi.

"Lanxi. Seeing this, Leo and Sylvia glanced at each other and said a word in unison.

Seeing these Lanxi people, both of them also understood why the old hunter would mistake them for Lanxi people after seeing them, because the clothing of the two was too different from the locals, and they were not disguised at that time, they were completely normal human beings, and it was difficult not to admit their mistakes.

However, what puzzled Leo and Sylvia was why the locals respected the Lancy people so much who were contrary to their values, and the Mother of Filth was the only possibility they could think of.

After the arrival of the Lanxi mission, the main objects participating in the sacrificial ceremony were all there, and the time was almost up, and then I saw that in the doorway of the middle layer of the altar, four groups of dependents with different degrees of body mutation came to the four platforms located in the middle layer, and each stood in front of several huge horns on the platform, blowing hard.

A trumpet sound rang through the sky, and when the horn fell, everyone in the altar square stopped talking, and all stood in place respectfully, and the surroundings instantly became silent, and even the sound of breathing was very low.

Then, a burst of prayers was heard coming from the entrance at the bottom of the altar, and a procession led by four maggot priests holding aloft the scepter of the Mother of Filth came out of the altar.

Behind the maggot priest were all the high-ranking clergy of the Leon Order, who were reciting the prayer of the Mother of Filth while carrying a huge idol of the Mother of Filth.

Behind them were the altar guards escorting the sacrifices, and all of them staggered forward as if their souls had been drained.

The group walked to the small square in front of the altar, and then the maggot priest inserted the holy emblem scepter in his hand into the four slots around the square, and a burst of light poured out of the scepter, like flowing water, escaping along the pattern of the square ground below the scepter, gradually spreading until it spread to the edge of the square, enveloping all the people in the square in light.

At this time, the statue of the Mother of Filth also seemed to resonate with the light, emitting an even more dazzling light, rushing into the sky, forming a pillar of light.

At the same time, the same thing was done on the altars of the other realms of the Mother of Filth, and pillars of light shot out from the ground, reflecting each other, and the dark sky was also transformed by the injection of pillars of light, and a statue of the Mother of Filth appeared in the air, allowing everyone in the realm to see.

The moment the statue of the Mother of Filth appeared in the sky, everyone in the altar square fell into a state of frenzy, and under the leadership of all the clergy, they recited the prayer of the Mother of Filth, and while they were reciting the prayer, the surrounding light also penetrated into their bodies little by little, stimulating some unknown power in their bodies, guiding their bodies to slowly become clansmen.

At the same time, Leo and Sylvia also felt that the power of the light was seeping into them, and it was clear that this light did not distinguish between believers and non-believers, and perhaps when the light worked, nonbelievers would become believers.

However, in the face of the power of the light, the bodies of the two of them produced two completely different reactions.

Under the influence of the power of the light, the Faceless and the Abyss Demon Dragon in Sylvia's body actually joined forces to block the power of the light from the body, and her body also produced some abnormal reactions under the action of the two forces, such as her face becoming blurred and the scales on her body looming.

Fortunately, because of the cover of the burqa and the fact that everyone around her was immersed in the baptism of light, no one noticed the abnormality on her body.

Compared to Sylvia's rejection, Leo's body reacted completely differently, just like other divine powers that settled in his body, the power of the Mother of Filth also penetrated into his body without hindrance, and after a circle in his body, it poured into his arm, forming a holy emblem mark of the Mother of Filth next to the crystallized serpent.

And at the moment when the mark was formed, Leo could clearly feel that the power of the abyssal serpent contained in the crystallized serpent had weakened to varying degrees, as if he had encountered a nemesis.

At this time, the black oil pool in front of the altar began to tumble and boil, and the guards who escorted the sacrifices saw this, so they brought the walking corpse-like sacrifices to the black oil pool and pushed them into the pool.

Then I saw that the sacrifices that fell into the pool were twisted and deformed as if they had melted, and soon disappeared into the pool, merging with the black oil.

At this time, there was a sudden chanting sound from the sky, and then I saw golden light projected from the statue of the Filthy Mother Goddess and fell into the pool of black oil, and the black oil in the pool was gradually infected by the golden light and turned into golden holy oil.
