The night breeze blows, and the sweet smell looks a little abrupt in the warm air.

The area is littered with debris of the debris of the abandoned houses that were originally located here, but after the demolition left the remains of the construction waste pile. Originally, there was a plan to reuse it, but after it was abandoned for some reason, it became a ruin of rebirth.

Looking beyond the ruins, you can faintly catch a glimpse of the café on the main street and the Slote restaurant decorated with red, green and white ribbons. A lively bar is decorated with tiny lights that flicker in the wind from a distance.

The main street is full of people, a peaceful daily scenery, but in such a peaceful corner of the street, there is a large area of waste heap remains. People living in this neighborhood are accustomed to these wastes, and no one thought that there would be dead people in this pile of garbage.

There was no lighting in the scrap pile, and only the glimmer of the terrain could barely be seen from the distant lanterns. The corpse lay in a shady dirt pit, and Curt didn't even see him there at first. If it weren't for the thick smell of blood in the air that pointed the way, Curt might have looked here for a while.

Moving deep and shallow on the ground where the masonry and rubble were thrown out, Curt had to cast a simple night vision spell on himself in order to make it easier to observe. Transformed into black and white, the blur reveals what is hidden in the darkness, a lying Slot.

That's where Curt smelled it came from, a man in his mid-thirties. By the time Curt rummaged over the fence outside the garbage heap and found the guy, he was already breathing. Only the thick fishy stench came along with the buzzing of insects.

The warm environment of the summer night is a paradise for insects, and the fresh corpses have attracted a large number of small insects, and no amount of expulsion can drive them away from the dead.

The corpse was very badly destroyed, and seeing the tragic condition of this corpse, anyone might have a feeling of "is the murderer starting to get bored because he is used to killing people" - otherwise how could he use such a technique to dress the corpse in such a grotesque posture?

From the masonry and rubble that covered the ground, several clusters of vines appeared, and the surface was covered with many sharp thorns like thorns. This wonderful plant wrapped around the limbs of the deceased, leaving many irregular scars. Blood flowed from the wound and was applied to the ground around it.

It was a distinct product of spells, and the vines that had absorbed fresh blood grew excessively and became thick and tough, firmly anchoring the body of the deceased. Sharp and slender spikes were embedded deep in his body, and the man must have struggled quite violently as they grew.

The result of this struggle was that his limbs were covered with scars, and the more intense the struggle, the stronger Tengman bound him. His struggles tore off many plants, but the magic he threw into it caused the vines to regenerate countless times, drowning almost all of his limbs in the clumps of plants.

He was like the ancient sages who suffered, his body was tied into a big "X" shape by these crazy plants, and the blood that flowed out was deliberately elongated and turned into a cross star-shaped pattern. The corpse of this Slote man seems to have become the remnant of some kind of religious sacrifice.

Another sacrifice, I don't know what it was for.

It's not the first time, and maybe not many people know about it, but every once in a while, some Slots will show up on the streets with such grotesque deaths. Like those people, he had a large cut in his body shortly after his death, and his internal organs were dragged out.

The first time such a grotesque corpse appeared was at the end of an alley in the Old Town, and he was placed in a strange shape in the same way. Perhaps as a symbol of the first, he was stripped of his ranks, and the blood that spurted from his empty neck stained the streets with a scarlet rose.

He was followed by a succession of lone Slots who were attacked. Their targets don't seem to be limited to gang members, even restaurant waiters and bank clerks who have nothing to do with the underworld have been attacked and died in the same way.

The first person is missing the rank, the second person is missing the left arm, the third person is missing the right leg, and the fourth person and the fifth person are missing...... There is always a part of everyone who has been plundered by the perpetrators unreasonably. And where their wounds are, the blood that spills out is always tricked into strange patterns. Roses, wings, insect feet, etc., red blood became his paint, and roads became his drawing board.

Perhaps the perpetrator wanted to use this to announce to the world that he was not an ordinary murderer, but an artist who had detached himself from low-level tastes.

How crazy!

The body of the deceased was still intact - at least not missing arms or legs, and it was not the main limb that had been plundered, but something else. The shocking wound on his torso may have been able to tell you what was missing.

The gap was cut from the chest to the abdomen, and the dirty internal organs were clearly exposed to the air. It is possible that this act was carried out while he was still alive, which is why the man was so painful, his eyes widened in anger, and he let out a final cry to the sky with all his might.

But it is certain that his cries did not succeed in reaching the surroundings. Aside from spells, there are too many ways to stop a person from making a sound. His mouth was not piled up, but a weak flower peeked out of his mouth. But this flower grows directly in his throat.

If it weren't for some kind of faith or magic ritual, it would have been too cruel. No, even for the sake of such rituals, such rituals are cruel and despised by men, and the exhibition of civilization should completely exclude such human sacrifices.

After careful inspection, I got the gap, and I had to praise the excellence of the technology. This is a delicate cut that a good doctor may not be able to do, cruel and precise - or even elegant. The incision is smooth and neat, and it is only possible to practice this technique if the same action is repeated countless times.

The man looked like a fish dissected by the most skilled butcher on the market, his entrails knocked out in one breath, revealing a moist texture in the dark. Every Slote who had been killed by such a miraculous technique had lost some of their internal organs, and there was no doubt that the man's murder had been murdered.

The identity of the person who created this victim has already been declared by himself. The blue dye smeared an unpleasant eye-like pattern on the deceased's forehead, revealing a grotesque madness in the clumsy brushwork. This is the same as the "eyes" on the costumes of the men in black in the video provided by Ojordin, and if it is not someone else's intention to blame, it means that the organization is declaring its own existence in this way.

Curt had never heard of the existence of such a religious existence in the empire as an offering of grotesque rituals. Even if the empire was a secular state, allowing citizens to have their own beliefs without a state religion, it would not tolerate the existence of such an organization in which people were used as rituals and rituals.

Taboos are things that are clearly forbidden to be touched, but things that are hidden under this prohibition may be full of appeal. Human beings, or other intelligent races, are basically creatures that will be faithful to their actions, and even if they are forbidden, it is impossible to completely cut off the existence of certain things.

As a result, there were many heretics - in the era of feudalism, poaching in the mountains and forests where hunting was prohibited, and smuggling in areas where commerce was restricted...... and, certain acts that hurt others and are self-interested. It is precisely because of this unique attraction that taboos become "taboos".

The belief in monsters, or the primitive religions that took human sacrifice for granted, still exists, and the dawn of civilization has not yet fully illuminated the world. And even in a country that is supposed to be "civilized", there will still be barbarism that tastes self-interest.

Past...... Have these people been acting recklessly for a long time, at least before this event was born?

Now that I think about it, it's no wonder that the Slots call this group the "blue-eyed bastards", and they've already declared themselves to their targets.

It's crazy...... What exactly does this organization do?

Unabashedly self-existent, arrogantly carrying out sabotage activities. In just a few months, it has provoked both the Slots and the Catrice Academy. Not surprisingly, Grostide and the others should have noticed the activities of this strange organization in Catrice.

Are they crazy...... Provoke these groups in one go. Such an act would be almost a declaration of war against the existing forces living in the Catrices. Inside, they touched almost every nerve in most of the group—the government associated with the garrison, the underground forces associated with the Slottes, and the theoretically strongest single combat force in the Dominion, the Wind of the Twelve, Cruise François, and the academy under his management.

Needless to say, the combined energy of these forces is enough to shake the Dominion. Even a madman wouldn't want to be an enemy of this behemoth all at once. But this "blue eye" is so crazy that he has declared war on all of them with his actual deeds.

Do they really think they can be beaten?

Curt shook his head and dismissed the thought that flashed through his mind for a split second—the thought that his sanity told him was crazy. Unless this crazy group is plotting to upend the order of the entire Dominion, it is unlikely that they will confront the union head-on.

But there was a small voice in his heart telling him: If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, in order to prevent the other party from really having such a plan, it is better to prepare early.
