Sword Sorcery

Chapter 401 Scale Demon
A large group of people carried the metal statue and followed behind the short dwarf. Every step made a sound, and by the way, a small cloud of dust was brought up, like a ceremonial soldier deliberately stepping forward.

Aaron followed behind the others, looking at the dwarf in front of him, but his heart was full of doubts——

"The priest presiding over the scene is actually a dwarf?!"

Dwarves are the most inferior race in the underground area, and without the suffix "one of them", they are synonymous with "third-class citizens".

Such a dwarf has become the priest who presides over the scene, which makes people feel unbelievable for a while.

"However, the opponent's mental power fluctuations are so strong"

Aaron sensed that the dwarf in front of him exuded a wave that belonged to the wizard level, and the specific level was at least the realm of the peak element.

A peak elemental wizard.

Aaron narrowed his eyes, and the doubts in his heart became stronger——

The low status of dwarves is mainly due to their poor witchcraft aptitude. Not to mention compared with humans with the highest degree of compatibility, even compared with other underground creatures, dwarfs are also at the worst level of aptitude.

At this level, even if the opponent is a peerless genius among dwarves, it is the limit to become a phantom wizard, let alone be promoted to a formal wizard, or even reach the realm of peak elemental strength.

Just like the Arabian Nights.

“Things are getting interesting”

Aaron recalled a series of words such as 'big altar' and 'priest' mentioned by the other party, and had a vague guess in his mind. In addition, the metal statue they were carrying made that guess more real and reliable.

"Did that dwarf use a mysterious method different from the normal way to obtain powerful spiritual power?"

"It seems that the true strength and scope of the emotional world is far from being as simple as I thought."

Thinking of this, Aaron looked away, stopped paying attention to the dwarf priest, and re-observed the environment——

At this moment, everyone was walking on a rocky road inside the volcano. On the left was a cliff-like place, and on the right was a scorched yellow volcanic rock wall.

On the rock wall on the right, there are statues of creatures with horns and heads. Except for the sheep's head, they all have the appearance of naked men. The chest and abdomen are covered with muscles like a bodybuilder. The bottom looks bright.

In addition, they have a pair of feathered wings on their backs, which look like the wings of an eagle. Coupled with a goat's head, they look quite ferocious, enough to scare children into tears.

However, Aaron didn't pay attention to their appearance, but focused on their belly, because there was also a sentence written on the belly of the sheep head statue——

"Samael, who symbolizes arrogance, has led many believers and followers, and has become a great force that cannot be ignored in the abyss. In addition, the most favored race under his command is the 'homologous' The ram horn scale demon is now."

"Goat horn scale demon."

Aaron chewed on the vocabulary, trying to find information from his memory, even using the chip.

Unfortunately, there is no relevant information in his memory.

"The horned scale demon, what kind of creature is it?"

"What does it have to do with the current sacrificial activities?"

Just as Aaron was thinking seriously, the whole team stopped suddenly, causing him to look up——

"We've finally come to an end."

"It seems that this platform is their 'big altar'."

At this time, everyone had already walked the rock wall road inside the volcano, and came to a huge and wide green and black platform. The entire platform was located in the center directly above the volcanic magma, and it was in a wonderful state of 'suspension'.

The entire green and black platform is only supported by eight long strips of rocks, connecting the four sides of the volcano wall. For example, eight chopsticks are placed on the hot pot, and a small plate is placed in the center——

This dish is the green and black platform, and it is also the big altar that the other party said.

"Okay, you put this sacrificial statue in the center of the platform."

The dwarf priest gave an order, and the Faceless Men followed suit. They lifted the metal statue to the center of the platform and put it down carefully.

boom!
No matter how carefully everyone placed it, the heavy metal statue still threw a cloud of dust on the ground—but it was limited to dust.

The entire platform is made of unknown materials, and it has suffered such a severe impact, but there is no trace of dents on the ground, and it is still neat and clean.

In addition,

Everywhere on the green and black platform, strange-shaped curse patterns were engraved, forming the outline of a pentagram with each other.

Aaron observed carefully and found that this spell pattern was also a "rune rune", and it was combined into a pentagram pattern under his feet in a sequence he had never seen before.

"No. Zero, help me record this pattern."

"At the same time, according to the meaning of the "Rune Rune", analyze the specific function of the entire witch array for me! "

"Drip, the task has been established and is being recorded."

Aaron issued a task to the chip. He planned to collect information about the witch formation, hoping to analyze how the "Rune Rune" was used, so as to speculate on the opponent's real goal.

Meanwhile, Aaron, ostensibly an innocent Faceless Man, backed out with the others, leaving the center of the field to the dwarf priest.

The dwarf priest nodded in satisfaction, and quickly walked in front of the metal statue. He took out a bronze box from his arms, and gently lifted it——

Snapped!
The bronze box was opened, and there was a group of translucent spheres in the box. There were human faces on the surface of the spheres, but their expressions were full of 'arrogance' and 'disdain', as if for the world. No living thing will be looked down upon!
When Aaron saw this spherical object, his chest immediately felt hot, and there was a burst of longing from that 'vertical pupil'——

"Eat it! Eat it!! Go eat it!!!"

The desire in his heart became stronger and stronger, as if a hungry addict saw marijuana, and an impulsive desire immediately surged into his brain, bewitching Aaron to snatch this thing.

Fortunately, Aaron suppressed this thought and did not act according to his own desire.

Because, from his point of view——

When the dwarf priest took out this thing, there was a squirm on his forehead, and two tumor-like things bulged out. The next moment, the two tumors exploded, forming something like a goat's horn!

At the same time, the dwarf's back bulged for a while, and then a pair of eagle-like wings exploded with a 'boom'!

It is the true posture of the 'horn scale demon'!
