Don't call me evil god
Chapter 509 This place is full of familiar people
Chapter 509 This place is full of familiar people
There are basically only two types of structural models for the bases of cult organizations that like to organize sacrifices.
Either the staff is extremely streamlined and no outsiders are accepted, and the only people who can come to the stronghold are loyal cultists or unlucky innocent victims.
The main feature of such a stronghold is efficient sacrifice.
Those who were sent were surrendered directly, leaving no one alive and giving no chance to escape.
For example, the secret cave that Pete and Lena were tricked into in Green Harbor was like this, but in Pete's opinion, those cultists had gone too far and sacrificed themselves first.
The other method is to focus on recruiting new members without engaging in dangerous sacrifices. Instead, it brings in suitable targets after screening and seduces them into joining through various means.
That's pretty much the situation with the Bloodfang Gang.
Among them, the life cycle of cult strongholds with sacrificial functions is usually not very long.
After all, their actions would certainly leave obvious traces.
Sacrifice means that people will continue to disappear.
Therefore, it is not difficult to roughly locate the area where the cultists’ strongholds are located.
Just investigate which place has the highest disappearance rate.
In all likelihood, someone was secretly conducting a sacrificial ceremony.
In order to avoid being discovered, surrounded, and exterminated, the cultists are also very smart. They understand the principle of a cunning rabbit having three burrows and often will not stay in the same place for a long time to perform sacrifices.
A sacrificial base will be abandoned after being used several times, and the enemies will move to other places to continue their activities.
But the huge stronghold in front of us obviously does not meet the requirements.
They will recruit new people here. The dwarf in front of them said to Pete and others fearlessly, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand now. After witnessing the miracle, you will definitely join us."
At the same time, they were carrying out sacrificial activities on a large scale.
The fact that it went undetected for so many years is extremely unusual in itself.
……
"Oh, I almost forgot to introduce myself."
The dwarf who came to preach to Pete and the others slapped his head in annoyance.
"I am now Bron Freeman of the Freeman family."
"Thank God for the protection of the Supreme Truth, which allowed me to witness the truth of this world three years ago."
“When the end of all things comes, only He can lead us to build a new world!”
Pete raised his eyebrows slightly.
Good guy!
They haven't even started looking for him yet, and the real culprit is right in front of them!
When listening to the young dwarf describing Bron Freeman's situation in the Freeman family's equipment shop, Pete and the others had a hunch that the abnormal behavior of this old friend of the Countess of Ceylon in recent years and the strange phenomenon of disappearing out of thin air might be related to the black-robed organization hidden in the stone castle, that is, the Church of the Supreme Truth.
as predicted!
Judging from the other person's pious look, I'm afraid that his whole body and mind have transformed into the shape of the supreme truth.
"What should I call you?" Bron Freeman's tone was so soothing and polite that people felt he didn't look like a cultist.
In Pete's impression.
Cult members are either crazy or dark and cold-blooded, and they often spread desperate messages.
Bron Freeman comes across as a fairly normal dwarf.
Pete thought for a moment and gave a fake name:
"Call me Skeet."
Guy next to him immediately understood what he meant.
"My name is Henry. Henry Trang."
Reina understood after seeing this: "Cunning Shadow."
Brandon looked odd, "Well—you can call me Evan."
Miranda was a little embarrassed: "Well... my name is Daranmi."
It was fine that the five of them couldn't come up with a real name, but they all used names of people they had dealt with before. Only Miranda was a little embarrassed to do such an impersonation, so she made up a fake name out of thin air.
Bron Freeman nodded calmly, "I understand."
"But because this is the real world of the dwarves, I suggest that you consider designing a dwarf name and identity for yourself in advance. Otherwise... it may not be very convenient."
"Inconvenient?" Pete repeated, expressing his doubt.
Bron pulled out a pocket watch from his pocket, checked the time, and then smiled and said, "You will know the reason soon."
The words fell.
The light source that originally illuminated the entire area began to slowly dim.
The spacious hall gradually became dim.
When the light source disappeared, Pete discovered that the flesh and blood pyramid in the center of the hall had been emitting a faint bright red light.
It was just covered by the bright light before.
Visibility became low, but it was not a problem for Pete and the others.
Before setting off, they applied all kinds of status effects with longer duration.
For example, the Stalker can grant people [Midnight Vision], allowing them to easily maintain normal vision in dark environments.
Slightly heavy footsteps suddenly sounded.
Look in the direction of the sound.
Judging from his body shape, the other party was obviously a dwarf who was only 1.3 meters tall, but he was very strong and made a heavy sound every time his feet touched the ground.
He was wearing a loose, heavy black and red robe.
Although the style is suitable for the dwarf's body shape, the thickness and warmth retention of the clothes are obviously excessive, and it looks like the kind used to keep warm in some cold place.
In a place as hot as Stone Castle, even the lightest and most breathable robe would make you feel too hot to wear. The most suitable attire is actually a vest and shorts.
No one would be stupid enough to wear such thick clothes.
The other person was wearing a hood.
Not to mention the face, before he opened his mouth, I couldn't even tell whether he was a man or a woman.
The changes in the environment and the appearance of the mysterious dwarves made the innocent dwarves, who were already nervous and panicked, even more agitated.
"It's over! We're dead!"
"If you join the evil god, you will not have a good ending!"
"..."
Until a firm voice sounded:
"There's no point in being afraid! Only by killing them can we have a chance to escape alive!"
"Everyone, try again! Our ancestors are protecting us, follow me!"
"In the name of the God of Lava! Charge!"
Someone in the crowd shouted loudly and fiercely.
Somehow, Pete always felt that the voice was familiar.
When pushed to the limit, people will try again even if they know it is impossible.
If you don't try, you will probably just wait for death, but if you try, there may still be a glimmer of hope.
A dwarf took the lead and stood up, roaring and rushing towards the mysterious dwarf wearing a heavy black and red robe.
Pete's eyes suddenly widened!
He knew why that voice of calling out was so familiar to him!
The dwarf leading the charge was none other than himself.
It was the middle-aged dwarf they had met in the Happy Hour Bar on the 4th floor of Stone Castle - Yanhu Brackett!
"What the hell!"
"Why is he here too?!"
