Dian Geng Sect General Forum
After the Altar of Fire was damaged, the Dian Geng Sect paid a higher price than before for this sacrifice. This time they prepared a full third more energy crystals than before, and these three points One of the energy crystals can be said to have been bribed by the Holy See for nearly a year.

Similarly, on the highest altar of the Dian Geng General Altar, most of the believers of the Dian Geng Sect have gathered. Looking at the crowds of people, it seems to be showing off the power of the Holy See. On this huge altar platform, there are countless roots. The magic tower that ignites the holy flame is controlled by a magister-level Holy See mage on top of the magic tower.

The night has not completely faded away, but the entire Din Geng Sect is illuminated like daytime, even the darkest corners of the past are full of light.

The red fire energy crystal nuclei have been neatly placed on the magic circle with a diameter of one thousand meters. From a distance, it looks like a group of regular flames burning quietly in the center of this altar platform.

Chippers Laurent should be the only pope who has presided over two great sacrifices. This old man spent a long time bathing and changing clothes under the service of the priestess, maintaining a full state of energy. It's an extremely solemn ceremony.

It has been a while since the bells of the beginning of summer have been ringing, and the dawn is gradually appearing on the horizon. When the first ray of sunlight hits the highest altar of Dian Geng Sect, the pope slowly appears in the On this grand occasion, all the believers who believed in the god of Dian Geng immediately bowed down at the moment of dawn, and some guests also needed to use the etiquette of the Holy See to show their respect for the Pope.

Nearly 10 people kneeling and saluting at the same time is an incomparably spectacular and magnificent scene. Standing on the towering astrology platform, even Chippers Lauren, who has experienced countless magnificent scenes, also smiled. He didn't cover up the pride and pride in his heart, and his cloudy eyes shone with a bit of light. They were eyes that could not be disguised and controlled the supreme power, which made people feel awe and could not tolerate any resistance.

"My lord, Saintess Daisy did not return to the temple, and the branch temple of Zacharias suddenly lost contact, as if she had already controlled it." The acting bishop compressed his voice and transmitted it to the pope's ears.

The expression on the face of Pope Chippers did not change much, but after a slight shift in his eyes, he still maintained the most noble smile and looked down at the kneeling believers, then slowly stretched out his hands and waved the golden sleeve robe , indicating that everyone can get up.

"Ignore the matter of the Saintess and Zacharias for the time being. Many strange forces have appeared in the city recently. It seems that they are planning to do something wrong. More people will be assigned to guard near the main altar. There must be no difference in the sacrifice!" Qi Bo When Slauren finished the ceremony, he also transmitted his voice to the acting bishop.

……

Those who can walk up to the altar of the stars in the Rosa Temple are all people who have the title of nobility, cultivator status, royal blood, and high-level Rosa positions in Zecharia, but these upper-level figures alone have reached 10 There are so many people, as for those ordinary people and low-level believers, they can only stand quietly at the foot of the holy mountain, praying devoutly with their eyes looking up, hoping to get the blessing of the gods at the end of the sacrifice .

The blessing of the gods is an extremely glorious thing for the low-level believers. Once they are bathed in the most complete divine light, the disease will stay away from them for a lifetime, and they may even be valued by the temple because of their devotion to the gods. The interior of the temple, so believers who signed a contract with the gods or not, they will not miss this opportunity. Countless people who come here kneel down under the holy mountain. Looking down from the highest point, you can see the dark crowd, crowded The vast wooden stalk plain and the giant spirit square facing the holy mountain extend all the way to the streets and alleys of Zacharias City.

In order to maintain order, the Rosa Temple had to assign most of the Temple Knights and Temple Judges of the Temple of Judgment to around the holy mountain, and those old people who had experienced the last big sacrifice were very puzzled, because this time the big sacrifice The temple invested almost twice as many armed forces as the sacrifice 20 years ago, which made the atmosphere a bit strict and tense in addition to grand fanaticism.

"Why don't you let us get close here!!" The believers are extremely fanatical. They wish they could stand on that altar now and witness the whole process of the great sacrifice with their own eyes. It's a pity that they don't have any status and can only rely on crowding Get blessings from the location closest to the holy mountain.After all, getting blessings is likely to change the class status of their civilians and bottom believers.

"This is the order of the judge. This area has been sealed off, and no one is allowed to approach it!" The temple knight replied coldly. At this time, a hundred temple knights had separated the border between the holy mountain and the Zacharias River.

Although separated by a river, some smart believers will come here to pray, because this is the closest location to the altar, but this year's sacrifice was separated by the knights of the Rosa Temple. No one is allowed in the 200-meter territory. Get close to form a huge empty layer, and this empty layer is the most coveted blessing location for believers!
In the palace of the temple, Gaia slowly walked up the stairs one after another under the guidance of Shad. The platform of the great sacrifice is at the highest position of the holy mountain. This position actually extends beyond the mountain wall, but the stairs Still going up in order, if ordinary people walk on this ladder, they must be trembling with fright, because there are no guardrails on both sides, and looking down is the abyss!

The fog in the early morning has not completely dissipated. Stepping on the stairs covered with holy fragrant flowers and plants, Gaia didn't pay attention to those who passed by him at all. The night before, he saw it for the first time in the blood array of the holy lake. The images that shocked him were gradually merged together, and he vaguely saw the holy woman being tied up at the top of the gorgeous tall cross...

"Are all your people lurking in these crowds?" As if to relieve the depression in his heart, Gaia said to Shad next to him.

"Are you testing me?" Shad heard his intention from the alien's tone, and then asked back.

"Forget it. I'm just afraid that you will lose. After all, the temple is so heavily guarded. There are [-] temple adjudicators on this [-]-level staircase," Gaia said.From the lowest level to the last level, Gaia has already estimated the guarding power of the temple at this altar level.

"I know the security deployment of the temple better than you." Shad stepped on the last step, then looked around, and his eyes fell on the central altar full of purple energy enchantments, and continued to ask, " You want to disrupt this ceremony?"

Gaia nodded very directly, and then stared at Shad's face, carefully observing the changes in the expression on the man's face, but found that this calm man showed a presumptuous smile.

"I don't know who you are, but I believe that you also have a deep hatred with the temple, which can be seen from your indifferent eyes." Shad finally expressed his true thoughts.

"Then you can tell me what's going on. I'm very puzzled. Your normal life trajectory should be to be completely loyal to the temple." Gaia knew that Shad had told the truth.

And Shad didn't deliberately hide himself at this time. It seems that in his opinion, there is no need to hide now, because all the hiding is for today.

Shad didn't answer Gaia's question right away, but in the name of the commander of the temple knights, he took Gaia to a position far away from those believers and guests, and stood on the edge of the entire platform with a towering holy flame Under the pillar, he pointed to the entire star platform full of people, and said to Gaia: "From your alien perspective, what are these people doing?"

At this time, Gaia could see the incomparable anger erupting from Shad's always silent face, as if he was accusing something painfully.

"Human sacrifice, an ugly act cloaked in gorgeous teachings." Gaia replied.Perhaps in the eyes of those numb believers, Saintess Shan Lifu voluntarily sacrificed herself for the faith, but in fact it was an act of coercion by the temple. Every four years, a living person was sacrificed. It's ridiculous, but the countless believers and the temples in charge of the faith are never tired of it, and they think they are advocating peace and tranquility.

"Hmph, sacrificing a living person is just superficial. I don't believe you are ignorant of the truth." Shad said.

"Of course I know, but I'm very confused about what the force you are loyal to is doing." Gaia said.

According to the information obtained from Dian Gengjiao, Gaia already knew everything about Shad.Shad is indeed a traitor to the temple. He seems to have been silently loyal to the temple all these years, but he has been in contact with the force mentioned by Fei Ze in the early years, and this force is delusional to control the four The black hand of the great empire, it can even be said that the four great empires have been controlled by this black hand.

Shad didn't answer Gaia, but left Gaia's field of vision without saying hello, and entered the camps lined up in the temple.Gaia didn't say anything more to him, she stood under the sacred fire pillar, half leaning there, staring at the thronging crowd, indifferently watching them busy for this grand ceremony...

Next to Gaia, there is a female priest who silently dresses up for the star platform. This female priest holds many extremely ordinary wild flowers in her hands. Although they are all simple, the special fragrance of these wild flowers has attracted Gaia's attention. , Gaia's pair of pupils that were very different from humans fell on the female priest.

The female priest didn't notice the man in black standing there at first, but she turned her head when she noticed Gaia's gaze. After making contact with Gaia's special eyes, the female priest's body trembled slightly, Soon the cheeks on both sides became bright red, and then he lowered his head and continued to sprinkle those simple flowers beside the holy fire pillar.

"Where do these flowers come from?" Gaia asked.He is now standing on the edge of the entire platform. Compared with the hustle and bustle of people in the center of the huge star platform, this place is relatively deserted. At this time, only Gaia and this female priest are here.

The female priest didn't seem to expect that the man would talk to her, and after timidly glanced at Gaia, she replied delicately, "Yes...it was picked from the courtyard of the Temple of the Holy Maiden."

"Did Shan Lifu plant it herself?" Gaia asked again.

"Yes... yes." The female pastor was obviously astonished at Gaia calling the saint by her name, but she nodded, and continued to speak in order not to look so nervous, "This is specially ordered by the saint, she Love these unpretentious plants."

Gaia didn't ask any more questions. Seeing that the man didn't talk to her anymore, the female priest continued to do what she was doing, but she still secretly looked at Gaia from time to time.

The corners of Gaia’s mouth twitched slightly. The scent of these wild flowers aroused Gaia’s curiosity because of this very familiar smell. He vaguely remembered that on the low slope of Matu Village, these flowers would bloom everywhere in summer. The simple wild flowers and fresh aroma always permeate this Matu Village...

There are more and more people on the star platform, and the number of temple knights has reached [-]. These knights stand upright on the star platform one by one. When the sun is high, these knights have completely blocked the stairs. , no one is allowed to enter here anymore.

The humidity on this day of summer is very strong, and the entire platform is still surrounded by mist even when the sun is high. Many of these mist rise inexplicably from the holy mountain, and a small part comes from the dark place of the imperial city. The breath spread, most people didn't notice these invisible thick fogs at all. To these people, the star platform was still illuminated by the holy light, but what they saw from Gaia's eyes was covered by endless wrapped in darkness.

In the entire holy mountain, the dark atmosphere swirled unscrupulously around, and even in the moisture, there were blood droplets that evaporated from the holy lake, floating in the air.

Now, Gaia is leaning quietly on the edge. It is already bright, but from Gaia's position, one can clearly see that the pervasive darkness of the imperial city is reaching here like a devil's claw.

"It seems that there will be an unprecedented fierce battle, a duel between light and darkness." Gaia can see much more than those people, because he himself has dark attributes, and the Temple of Rosa is already in danger, even It can be said that all the Holy See that is holding the sacrificial ceremonies are potentially in danger, because the power that controls the empire has already extended its black hands to the temple. They are planning to take advantage of the most grand and grand day of the temple to have a fight with the temple. contest.

(I believe that many people can also see that it is God who is drawing to a close... The close does not mean that a few chapters or a dozen chapters will end, but it is coming to the end compared to a 150 million-word novel, so I would like to Friends who still miss this book should not be surprised.

Believe that Xiaoyu will give the friends who have followed Yeshen to this day a fascinating and wonderful ending! )
