The red moon returns

Chapter 570 The Cultists' Methods
There are indeed some opinions.

These apostles of the evil god may not understand other things, but they are definitely more skilled than anyone else in strange behaviors such as plundering and sacrifice.

Perhaps because they had just changed their stance, the apostles wanted to show off, or perhaps they really wanted the world to be in chaos, these people were quite interested in Lynch's request and actually provided a lot of suggestions.

For example, 72 death row prisoners were placed in a closed cell to fight each other, and the soul of the loser would be the best sacrifice for the blood sacrifice.

Lynch broke out in a cold sweat as he listened. He felt that the swollen girl's method was subtly similar to what happened in the catacombs.

Another example is to spread the seeds of death throughout the city, which will take root in the victim's body and absorb the victim's flesh, blood and soul to produce fruits within a few hours. Taking these fruits can quickly repair a weak soul.

Fuck, isn't this the cookie of the demon xx? What kind of people are you cold-blooded wendigos? If I give this to Nightingale, she will definitely kill me first. She is a traitor.

For example, he could ask Shudemel for help and set up a giant secret magic circle underground, which would use the power of the magic to erode and absorb the energy, physical strength and vitality of the people in the city, and gather them into the magic circle to form an egg of power. It contained the power of millions of people, which could definitely make up for the consumption of Nightingale's soul.

Apart from anything else, it was your bad idea that Kelvin came up with today. You didn't even change the method. And do you want to listen to what you said? It will definitely not bring a catastrophic impact to the city. At most, the whole city will be seriously ill and weak tomorrow, and they will be able to recover in half a month. Do you think you are talking about human words? However, this method seems...

“None of these will work.”

Seeing that Lin Qi was already somewhat tempted, a sudden voice in his arms interrupted his thoughts. It was Miss Diana who woke up. The girl leaned softly in Lin Qi's arms, looking very weak. However, although her voice was a little soft, at least it was still full of energy, which made Lin Qi feel relieved:
“Because it’s not pretty at all.”

Oh, I almost overlooked this question.

Lynch was indeed tempted. Kelvin's method was relatively gentle. As long as he reduced the strength a little and reduced the amount of vitality absorbed so as not to cause such a big impact, it would be effective without being noticed by the people in the city.

Lynch is not a saint. If letting these citizens sacrifice a little vitality could save Nightingale's soul, he would never hesitate. But Diana's words made him realize that he was too radical. Once he used this method, it would be like the second case of the failure of using the miracle light, and the entire ceremony would fail completely.

Wait, that’s not necessarily the case.

Lynch squatted on the ground in a daze, and didn't even notice the noble lady climbing up from his arms. Diana saw his condition and didn't bother to think about why she suddenly fainted. She immediately stayed close to him and shook her head at the evil apostles around her.

"Please don't disturb him for now. He should be considering a very important issue."

"Has he not changed this habit yet?" Manager West, who was dressed in a yellow robe, said jokingly, "How long will it take? I kind of miss the sunshine outside the theater window."

"It may take a while." Lynch had woken up from his deep thoughts, with a smile on his face and excitement in his eyes. "I have a question, Mr. Kelvin, can you make some adjustments to the secret magic circle you just mentioned?"

"Of course." Kelvin said confidently, "The so-called secret array is a collection of a large number of mysterious runes pieced together according to certain rules. There has never been a so-called fixed pattern. It is just a template forcibly recorded by laymen who don't understand the secret method for use. For professionals, it is very easy to adjust. So, how do you want to adjust it?" "First, weaken the absorption of each person. Rhine City has a population of millions, and the base number is already large enough. Even if each person only absorbs a small amount of vitality, it should be enough to support the consumption of the strange object."

"You obviously overlooked the relationship between quality and quantity. In fact, my previous judgment on the effect was not made casually." The middle-aged gentleman showed a helpless look at an outsider, but after thinking for a while, he still smiled and said, "Forget it. Since we may cooperate in the future, as a businessman, I must show some sincerity. I will think of a way to deal with this. It's not a big problem."

Lin Qi took off his hat and bowed, thanking him sincerely: "Then the second request is to change the way of obtaining it."

"Hmm? This is the basis, and it is also the most reliable method summarized by countless secret magicians through experiments over thousands of years." Kelvin frowned and said, "What do you want to change it to?"

"From forcibly extracting in secret to actively contributing." Lynch asked, "It would be best if the scope could also cover the entire city. Is it possible to do that?"

As soon as the words came out, most of the people present showed a look of realization. Miss Diana gently held his hand from behind and smiled with relief.

Kelvin pondered and said, "I understand. You want to use active donations instead of plundering? This will not only prevent plundering from polluting the lady's virtue, but it is also part of the 'beauty' you mentioned."

Lynch nodded and stared at Kelvin's reaction.

"This request is not difficult. It is easier than the original design. We can start now. I will also be responsible for communicating with Lord Shudemeier. But please forgive me for being frank. Your idea is unrealistic."

"Ok?"

"Because what they need to sacrifice is their life force. Everyone's life force is limited, and every minute is precious. No one is willing to give it to others. Even if you use administrative means to force those people to sacrifice their life force, it will be useless because according to your requirements, they must be willing. Even the slightest reluctance does not fall into the category of beauty. Administrative orders can command them in action, but unfortunately, they cannot command them psychologically."

The middle-aged gentleman smiled sarcastically:

"And according to your idea, you can't mix in any lies, because lies and deception, even if they are just misleading, are also out of the realm of beauty. You must let them know the truth and then sacrifice a part of your life. Haha, it's not that I have a prejudice against mortals, but the experience of countless people over the years has told us that it is a luxury to expect them to voluntarily pay even a coin. I don't want to discourage you, but no one will respond to you."

"Maybe you are right, but I still want to give it a try." Lynch said in a deep voice, "Someone told me not long ago that the hymn of mortals is the hymn of courage. Ms. Nightingale has demonstrated the courage of mortals with practical actions. I am willing to give mortals the minimum trust and believe that they will make the right choice. Don't forget, I have won several games, and I believe I am still the winner in this game. Everyone, are you willing to give it a try?"

A group of evil god apostles exchanged ideas for a moment, then nodded. "As you wish, let's use this to decide our future stance."

"It's a word."
