Chapter 386: Baptism Rituals, Games, and Rules
Lu Yuan waited for about fifteen minutes in the sacrificial square, and the eleventh throne finally went and returned.
"I've been waiting."
The Eleventh Throne still had a warm and hearty smile on its face, "All the best, the baptism ceremony will begin immediately." β
After speaking, he waved his hand casually.
Immediately after the huge sacrificial square, a group of people came out of the surroundings.
They are all young girls wearing sheep's head masks and graceful postures.
Each girl carried a black-haired lamb in her arms.
These girls wearing sheep's head masks seem to have rehearsed countless times in advance.
After entering the square, he consciously found the position where he should stand, and stood in a peculiar formation around the head of a huge male goat in the center of the square.
Then he fell to his knees and began to chant in unison.
It's like an unknown old song, or like some kind of special prayer.
The girl's song echoed in the empty sacrificial square, but it seemed to be restrained by some kind of force, and it did not spread.
A hint of mystery began to fill the air.
Lu Yuan counted the total number of these maidens with the black lamb in their arms, forty-five.
The Eleventh Throne stood beside Lu Yuan and spoke to him in a low voice.
"This is the highest level of baptism, and only members of the throne level are eligible for it. This is something that all the Throne is looking forward to and values when you joined."
Lu Yuan listened to the narration of the Eleventh Throne, his expression moved slightly, and he couldn't help but speak: "The baptism ceremony is also divided into different specifications? β
The Eleventh Throne replied, "Of course, different baptismal ceremonies can attract different attention from the true God.
The more attention the true God has, the greater the benefits that can be obtained during the baptismal rite.
It's a rare opportunity, once in a lifetime, so you have to make the most of it."
What are the other benefits of a baptism?
Lu Yuan's eyes flashed slightly, recalling that he had been recognized by the will of the Mosa Martial Arts and Hunting God in the ultimate bloody battle, and obtained a transcendental-level silver spear, and the power attached to the spear helped him open the [Spear Bearer (Extraordinary)] career panel.
Realizing that this so-called baptismal ritual is probably similar to that one, the platinum mask on the face of the Eleventh Throne is likely to have been obtained during the baptismal ceremony.
In this way, the purpose of his visit to Mosa may be achieved smoothly.
Just as he was thinking about it, Lu Yuan suddenly heard the sound of a sharp blade cutting into flesh, accompanied by the wailing and screaming of the lamb.
He looked up.
It was found that the chanting of the maidens in the sacrificial square continued, but the maidens kneeling on the ground somehow had an extra horn dagger in their hands.
He placed the black goat lamb in his arms on the ground, and the dagger pierced effortlessly along the lamb's delicate neck, and the red blood flowed out.
Red blood, black wool, and snow-white girl's skin.
The three colors are intertwined, and the eerie and evil picture hits Lu Yuan's eyeballs.
Lu Yuan saw the blood of those lambs dripping on the ground, quickly seeping into the hidden crevices along the smooth metal floor.
Flowing down the gap, a huge mysterious pattern was slowly outlined by blood.
The voice of the chant suddenly became high-pitched.
The maidens who had killed the lamb suddenly raised their heads, their long hair falling naturally, their snow-white lotus arms raised, and each of them holding the sharp horn dagger in their hands.
The tip of the dagger was facing downwards, facing the slender and polished necks of the girls.
Lu Yuan noticed a slight abnormality in the girls' gradually crazy emotions and movements.
He suddenly said in a cold voice: "Wait! β
The baptismal service, which was in the middle of the process, was interrupted, and the chanting in the square came to an abrupt end.
Everyone looked to the distance.
"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong? β
The Eleventh Throne asked suspiciously.
Lu Yuan looked at him and said calmly: "There is no need for living sacrifices." β
The Eleventh Throne looked stunned, as if he didn't expect Lu Yuan to stop the ceremony because of this.
"It's always been that way."
"Can't you do a baptism ceremony without human sacrifice?"
"Yes. But the effect will be much worse.. Very much.
The whole baptism ceremony will also be reduced to an extremely ordinary level."
"It's okay if it goes smoothly."
Lu Yuan's tone was firm, and his calm eyes revealed unquestionable resoluteness.
The Eleventh Throne frowned, pondering for a while, Xu is and the person were in a secret exchange.
After a moment, he finally nodded.
"Then follow what Your Excellency says."
The Eleventh Throne finally nodded, but its attitude towards Lu Yuan also seemed to become polite and distant all of a sudden.
is no longer as affectionate as before, a mouthful of "Cheng Peng brothers".
"Hah-"
In the meeting hall, which was paying attention to everything in the sacrificial square, the Mosa Throne Sequence Throne heard the news that the Eleventh Throne Garilet had just delivered, and all of them had a smile on their faces.
For Lu Yuan's inexplicable insistence, they couldn't even find the right words to complain.
One by one, they just shook their heads and chuckled, looking at the unusually young and handsome figure on the big screen, and their contempt and contempt were overflowing.
"I don't think he's qualified to sit here."
"There is no chance of a baptism ceremony of this specification, and maybe even the qualifications of the spear bearer may not be obtained."
The thrones in the conference hall talked and laughed casually, only the silver-haired man on the crystal throne looked indifferent, did not speak, just watched quietly.
The ceremony resumed.
The maidens were still the same group of maidens, and the new black goat lambs were brought up.
Lu Yuan watched the ceremony continue expressionlessly.
The young virgin and the newborn lamb have always been the most popular sacrifices in the sacrifice of evil gods, and there are almost no of them.
Lu Yuan knew that he was now a "freak" in the eyes of the high-level people in Mossa.
But his strength is constantly approaching the ceiling of this planet's combat power, and he thinks that he can't do it yet, and he can't watch dozens of fresh lives die here because of himself.
Although these girls don't have to die this time, they may die in another similar ritual next time.
Although for these girls, they may be more eager to be able to die as a sacrifice in the ritual.
Lu Yuan's "unbearable" ruthlessly deprived them of some supreme glory that was about to fall on them.
At the end of the ceremony, the carcass and blood of the black goat lamb stained the ground in the center of the entire metal square.
The huge mystical pattern is fully formed.
Girls wearing sheep's head masks leave the scene.
Lu Yuan accurately captured more than one of the eyes of the girls who left the scene, full of resentment and even hatred.
His expression was indifferent, as if he didn't see it.
At this time, there was an ancient and mysterious consciousness in the head of a huge male goat that was quietly suspended in the center of the square, and it was rapidly descending and reviving.
There was a faint glow of blood in the hollow eye sockets of the male goat.
The Eleventh Throne has disappeared at some point.
Two blood-colored beams of light shot out from the eye sockets of the goat's skull and fell straight on Lu Yuan's body.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, Lu Yuan's mind was like thunder.
His consciousness quickly sank.
The baptism ceremony began.
It was also at the moment when the blood-colored pillar of light enveloped Lu Yuan's body and he closed his eyes.
A little black point of light began to emerge in the void in front of him.
These black points of light converged in mid-air, gradually condensing into the form of a spear.
"I knew it."
In the conference hall, the thrones who saw this scene couldn't help but laugh.
"He only has the qualifications to become a spear bearer."
The hierarchy of members of the Mosa Sect is based on the rank of the token they hold.
At the bottom were ordinary Mossaians.
Further up, there are black iron spears, silver spears, and gold spears.
Then there is the wheel of black iron, the wheel of silver, and the wheel of gold.
Above the Golden Wheel is the Sequence Throne.
This is how every throne is promoted step by step.
The baptism ceremony is the first and most important step in the hierarchy.
The higher the standard and the more solemn the baptismal ceremony, the higher the starting point.
Among the eighteen current thrones of Mossa, there is a huge expense in the baptism ceremony, allowing 999 young virgins to kill each other, reaching the highest standard of "martial feast".
There are also more than 1,000 kinds of live animal sacrifices, which finally set an unprecedented precedent for the Golden Wheel.
It was also the fastest ascension to the throne in the history of the Moses.
It saves an unknown amount of time, energy, and resources compared to the rest of the thrones.
The eleventh throne told Lu Yuan that what was prepared for him was the highest standard baptismal ceremony.
Not lying.
Forty-five virgins is the largest "subsidy" that can be given to those involved in baptismal rites within the Moses.
Generally speaking, the living animals required for the baptism ceremony need to be prepared by themselves.
Lu Yuan wanted to join temporarily, and the preparations were in a hurry, plus he didn't know this, and no one would specifically remind him.
However, generally speaking, the baptism ceremony of this specification is also quite sincere, and with Lu Yuan's own strength and potential, there is no problem in reaching the level of the three-color wheel under the throne.
It's a decent start.
It's just that I didn't expect Lu Yuan to directly ask for no human sacrifice and pull the specifications of the baptism ceremony to the minimum.
If you want to rely only on your "charm" to attract the "favor" of the will of the gods of martial arts and hunting, the upper limit is too low.
Seeing that the black iron spear was about to take shape, the thrones in the conference hall seemed to have lost their attention and interest in this baptismal ceremony, and began to turn the topic to the "pantheon".
And at the same time, Lu Yuan is here.
The ancient sound of a trumpet.
The sound of a hunt with the banner blown by the wind.
The sound of howling, the sound of fighting, the sound of blades clashing.
Lu Yuan found himself suddenly appearing on an ancient battlefield.
It seems to be a conflict between two ancient clans.
He was surrounded by unreclutterable figures, armed with spears, swords, and bone clubs.
"Where is this?"
Lu Yuan frowned, looked down, and found that he had a rusty black iron spear in his hand at some point.
A figure wielding a broadsword suddenly slashed at him.
Lu Yuan instinctively poked the spear in his hand forward.
The spear pierced through the figure's chest in an instant, and with a slight shake, the latter immediately became torn apart.
Lu Yuan withdrew the spear and found that after killing the figure that tried to attack him, a trace of power seemed to pour into his body.
The black iron spear in his hand flashed with a bright light, and the rust on the spear seemed to decrease by a piece.
"Kill the enemy, become stronger, evolve the spear."
Lu Yuan shot again, poked an opponent in front of him, and verified his idea.
Thoughtfully.
"This is what is called a baptismal ceremony?"
Lu Yuan participated in the battlefield in front of him.
He had practiced the technique of spear and cold weapons, coupled with the fighting instinct of a martial arts master, this kind of ancient and wild battle was not a dilemma for him.
Lu Yuan held a spear and killed one figure after another in front of him.
A trace of power poured into his body, and the rust on the body of the black iron spear in his hand continued to peel off.
I don't know how many opponents I killed.
"Humβ"
Lu Yuan suddenly felt that the spear in his hand trembled slightly, and the black iron spear peeled off inch by inch, revealing a brilliant silver under the peeling iron filings.
The black iron spear turned into a silver spear in an instant.
However, the luster of the silver spear also attracted the attention of the more powerful figures on the battlefield.
Several sturdy and burly figures rushed towards the road in unison, and the pressure suddenly increased sharply!
"Kill!"
Lu Yuan's face was expressionless, and a brilliant silver light was reflected in his eyes.
The spear in his hand flew out like a swimming dragon, pulling out a series of brilliant silver screens around his body, mercilessly strangling the attacking opponent.
"Oh."
In the conference hall, a throne that inadvertently glanced over the big screen saw the golden light flashing in his field of vision, and his face showed a bit of surprise.
"Promoted to Golden Spear so soon?
He is worthy of being a player with the peak power of the eighth order."
The rest of the throne was attracted by the exclamation and looked up.
I saw that on the sacrificial square, Lu Yuan's figure was still shrouded in blood light, but the black iron spear in front of him, which was condensed by countless points of light, had turned into a brilliant gold at some point, which was quite dazzling.
Although the thrones were a little surprised, they didn't have much mood swings.
Someone casually commented: "It's almost time to reach the limit."
Amazing, go to the next level, and then condense a black iron wheel...
This is the end of the ceremony. β
The rest nodded in agreement, retracting their gaze again, no longer paying attention.
On the battlefield of consciousness, Lu Yuan casually picked up a brilliant golden light, and skewered seven or eight opponents in front of him at the same time with a spear.
Then his wrist shook slightly, and the terrifying concussive force shattered and shook the bodies of all the opponents.
At this time, the spear in Lu Yuan's hand had completely turned into gold at this time, as if it was poured with gold.
Of course, his opponents also "evolved".
Figures with the same golden weapons began to appear on the battlefield, each of which put a lot of pressure on Lu Yuan.
"The spear technique has been tempered quickly, and it has reached the pinnacle. After going out, digest and absorb it, and it is estimated that you can rush to a very high level on the [Weapon Master] career panel in one go."
"But."
Lu Yuan held a golden spear and looked at the entire battlefield.
Seeing the boundless battlefield with no end at all, he couldn't help frowning.
"How long does this have to go?"
"What is the purpose of this war? Where is the end? β
Lu Yuan looked up at the sky and saw that there seemed to be a figure standing in the turbid and dim sky.
It was as if there were a pair of eyes in the sky, quietly watching them.
For the mysterious figure behind the sky, the battle below seems to be just a game specially designed to please him.
The evolution of the spear, the escalation of the killing, are the rules of the game that he has set.
"Is there a way to break out of this rule and get to Him?"
Lu Yuan's eyes flickered, no longer looking at the swarming opponents, squinting his eyes at the figure behind the sky.
"The baptism ritual was performed within my consciousness.
It stands to reason
I'm also one of the masterminds and leaders of this game. β
"There's no reason you can't. Unleash your own power in your own domain! β
Lu Yuan thought about it, and suddenly took a deep breath, and his eyes flashed.
γElephant God. King Ming's posture], open it for me!
Push the book, "I Simulate the Road of Eternal Life in the Heavens"
One day, Lu Yun joined a Heavens chat group, which allows people to randomly travel to different worlds and make them draw their own exclusive gold fingers.
Lu Yun thought that he was about to reach the peak of his life.
"Wait, 100 traversers, how come 95 avatars are gray."
"Ding, there are a total of three newcomers who joined the Heavens Chat Group this time, and one survived, two of them didn't survive a day, please take caution from the group members."
Lu Yun realized that it was not easy to mix with the traverser, and the casualty rate was extremely high.
Fortunately, the golden finger that Lu Yun obtained is a life simulator that can simulate the future and avoid risks!
"Ding, the life simulator has been turned on, and the talent is being refreshed."
"Congratulations to the host for drawing the Talent: Ancient Holy Body; Talent: Chaos Dao Body; Talent, Luck Dragon"
When the others had just crossed over and were still struggling to survive, Lu Yun had already relied on the life simulator to gain a very powerful cultivation before the crossing, and after the crossing, he soared into the sky and gradually became the lord of the heavens and all worlds!
