Chapter 224: Sacrifice
The dark fire extinguishing ball hit the wall, but it was like a stone thrown into the sea. The violent energy was absorbed by the wall, and even a ripples could not be aroused.
"It's useless."
Enzo shook his head, not too much surprise at the result.
The maze of night is a place where gods sleep, and it will inevitably leave countless restrictions. It is almost impossible for mortals to break through it by violent means.
"It seems that if you want to leave here, you still need to find clues from these murals!"
Enzo took a deep breath and looked at the wall.
Suddenly, he frowned.
"Sacrifices to the gods, but why are there no sacrifices?"
From the content recorded on the mural, Enzo seemed to see a clue. He couldn't help but feel a move in his heart. He thought of a possibility and immediately took a breath of air conditioning.
"Are I...I'm the sacrifice?"
A cold air hits the top of the head on the back of the spine, and the scene of the Esos singing and dancing on the mural, suddenly appearing extremely strange.
Enzo's thought flashed through his mind, and he saw the fifth of six murals in the ruins of Esos.
Huge spiders entrenched in the sky, spider silk spreading in all directions, wrapping everyone in white cocoons.
"Is everything that happened before was for a sacrifice?"
Pictures flashed through my mind, murals in the temple of Ersus' ruins, prophecies on the black sword, and rumors that the kingdom of God began...
Behind the matter, it seemed as if a hand was pushing everything, luring the wizards into the world of the Kingdom of God, and competing for the maze of night.
"We must leave here as soon as possible!"
Enzo didn't dare to think too much and said in a deep voice, ": Chip, data analysis, how to crack the maze?"
"Ding! There is energy interference around, and the analysis failed!"
The chip's voice sounded in my mind, Enzo's heart sank, his face becoming more and more ugly.
Energy interference leads to limited chip functions.
The magic power in his body quickly disappeared, and the relief murals on the surrounding walls seemed even more strange. Enzo took a deep breath and suppressed the throbbing in his heart.
"By the way, Okano!"
Suddenly, Enzo remembered the undead Okano in the Book of Resentful Souls, whose mother was a remnant of Esos, and perhaps learned some information about the sacrifices of the Esos.
Then, Enzo took out the Book of Resentful Souls.
A transparent undead was released, Okano was a little confused. After seeing Enzo, his heart suddenly trembled.
"Witch...Master Wizard." Okano said tremblingly.
"Okano, your mother is a survivor of Esos. How much do you know about the sacrifices of the Esos?" Enzo asked straight to the point.
"Sacrifice?"
Okano was stunned. After thinking about it, he quickly said, ": When my mother was alive, she told me some customs about the sacrifices of the Esos."
"As far as I know, the Esos believed in the goddess of the night, and according to the customs passed down from ancient times, they usually held sacrificial ceremonies under the night sky."
"On a particular festival, the Essus will prepare sacrifices in advance, ignite the altar with flames, and then enjoy the goddess of night by dancing!"
"Dance?" Enzo asked, "What kind of dance?"
"I don't know this..."
Okano hesitated and shook his head and said, ": Since the traces of the goddess of the night disappeared, the Esos have not held a sacrifice for a long time."
"Even my mother doesn't know how to dance the sacrificial dance, she only knows that the dance seems to be called "shadow sword dance."
"Shadow Sword Dance?"
Enzo frowned, feeling that the name was a little familiar, suddenly widened his eyes and blurted out ": Shadow Sword!"
Okano looked puzzled.
Enzo's eyes flashed with luster, and then he took Okano back to the Book of Resentful Souls and took the Black Sword out of the Space Ring.
"Shadow Sword Technique..."
Enzo held the black sword in his hand, recalling the movements of Shadow Sword in his mind, and took a deep breath.
Then, he slowly closed his eyes, cut through the air with the blade in his hand, and moved forward at a specific pace, his movements like a dance.
...
The maze of night, another place.
In front, the corridor seemed to have no end. Two figures kept moving forward, but eventually returned to the origin and continued.
"It seems that we are trapped here."
Slott's face was pale, and the magic power in his body was constantly swallowed up, making his state weaker, as if it was a candle in the wind.
"If you want to give up, just do it!"
Next to him, Rafi's lips turned white, but her face looked stubborn.
"I won't stop waiting for you!"
Slot smiled bitterly, his feet suddenly became soft, his body collapsed on the ground, and blood fell on the ground from his broken arm, leaving a mass of blood.
Rafi gritted her teeth and walked forward a few steps, then stopped and turned back to Slot.
"Your personality is exactly the same as your mother." Slot sighed.
"You are not allowed to mention your mother!"
Rafi gritted her teeth and said word by word.
Slott's face looked a little lonely, and he lowered his head and stopped talking.
After a silence.
"I'm sorry, Rafi." Slot raised his head, a trace of guilt rose on his face, and said, ": For so many years, I have never fulfilled my father's responsibilities, and I have suffered a lot of grievances when I was a child..."
Rafi bit her lip without saying a word.
"The restriction left by the goddess of night cannot be easily broken by mortals." Slot leaned his head against the wall, his eyes flashed with a gloss, and he murmured, ": If you don't pay some price, it seems that you can't get out of this maze!"
"Since my regrets cannot be compensated, as a father, let me fulfill my obligations..."
After saying that, Slot closed his eyes and burst out with a magical light from his chest.
"What are you doing!?"
Rafi was shocked and said tremblingly, "Don't do stupid things!"
The magical light burst out, and at the time of a formal wizard's death, he burst out all his last power and tore up the surrounding space.
"Goodbye, Rafi!"
A smile appeared on Slott's face, and he said with regret: This is the only thing I can do for you as a father..."
After saying that, he pushed his palm.
The invisible force pushed Lafite into the crack in the space. The next moment, the light in Slot's eyes gradually dimmed, and white silk threads appeared under him.
It was like spider silk, and white silk threads were wrapped around Slot's corpse, forming huge insect cocoons layer by layer, and then hung upside down in the air.
Meanwhile, the area.
The same scene is repeated in different people, and all those who enter the maze of night through the altar are trapped in a long corridor.
"hateful!"
