"I'll keep the bloody key that the Lord of the Abyss exploded for you. It will depend on your luck when the time comes."
After all, goats are now the only foreign trade channel, and under the premise that Fang Linyan is currently focusing on manufacturing, even if his luck is overwhelming, what can the Abyss Lord's bloody key unlock? Nine-Yang Magic? Tathagata Divine Palm?
Of course these things are very expensive, but what help can Fang Lin Yan have now?
Not at all! So I can only give it to teammates or sell it,
So considering the current embarrassing situation, it is really not a big deal for Fang Linyan to leave the bloody key dropped by the Abyss Lord to the goat.
After the goat heard about it, he immediately opened his eyes wide, grabbed the vulture next to him and said excitedly:
"Wow, boss, you really understand me! The key to the Lord of the Abyss. This is the key dropped by the Lord of the Abyss. It must be snow-white, firm, plump and elastic. I can't wait to get it."
"Ah! Boss, I hate you. What will happen in the next days? Every minute and every second before I see you is torture for me."
The rest of the people were also looking forward to it. After all, he was the Lord of the Abyss. He was once the number one person in their hearts. What his key could unlock undoubtedly gave them a lot of room for imagination.
Next, Fang Linyan communicated the current situation with his teammates. Omi felt that Fang Linyan handled it without any problems, but Max, who had always been taciturn, gave an opinion:
"Athena is in the same boat with us now, and she is under a lot of pressure. You should take the initiative to communicate with her. Many relationships that were originally very close were due to poor communication, and in the end they were directly damaged because of a small matter.
rupture."
However, after three and a half minutes of communication between the talents, Fang Linyan suddenly realized that the screen had stopped moving, and then there was no response no matter what he did. He quickly made up six words in his head:
"Network connection lost."
Sure enough, the prompt came quickly, just as Fang Linyan had guessed.
However, he has also conducted explorations deep into the Chaos Contaminated Zone. He knows that the situation there changes rapidly and it is common for communications to be cut off. It is not to blame for the Mobius Mark.
After he calmed down alone, Fang Linyan drank coffee and thought about what happened. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that what Max said made sense.
He even asked himself that he actually didn't have much of a friendship with Athena. Most of the two parties were tied together by interests.
And for a long time recently, the benefits that I brought to Athena have been far less than what Athena can bring to me.
This is actually a very scary thing, because it means that competitors only need to pay a small price to take advantage of the situation and replace it.
When necessary, Athena can actually change a partner, which means smaller risks and greater benefits.
Of course, there shouldn't be any so-called competitors yet, but just because there isn't one now doesn't mean there won't be one in the future.
After pondering for a while, Fang Linyan called Rothbacher, thinking that she, who had been forcibly loyal to him, should be able to give some advice. After all, she was also a person serving the gods.
"Hey, I have a question to ask."
Rothbacher was sipping the drink in front of her in fear at this time. Before that, she had quickly taken a lot of photos of this thing and then posted it on her WeChat circle of friends.
She is also a person who has seen the world, but she has heard of the famous name of this drink seventeen years ago. In addition to being extremely delicious, it is said that it has mysterious power that can make women's skin whiter and more tender - but she has always been
I haven't tasted its true taste.
The reason is that this drink called "Saint Laurent" is not produced in the Hope District at all. The only place where it is produced is the Dow Jones store, and the order price requires 27,000 points, because after it is prepared, it only has
The shelf life is half an hour, so it can only be enjoyed in Dow Jones stores.
More importantly, people in the Hope Zone cannot enter the Dow Jones store, except of course the gods, but the gods do not have such a universal point!
Therefore, this thing has always been the dream of ladies, but Rothbacher made a big show of it today!
Fang Linyan was very satisfied with Rothbacher's reaction. Why didn't the emperor send hungry soldiers?
"Your Excellency, please speak!" Rothbacher immediately became excited.
Fang Linyan said seriously:
“What is the god’s favorite thing?”
Seeing Rothbacher, he was immediately suffocated, with a look of embarrassment on his face. Fang Linyan suddenly laughed and said:
"In this way, we are not talking about the great beings of the Order God System, but only the gods from the Church of the Four Seasons and the Original Church."
Rothbacher breathed a sigh of relief. It was typical blasphemy to comment on the gods she believed in as a mortal. She didn't dare to be so bold! But when it came to talking about other gods, she could speak freely.
.
"What those alien gods like is nothing more than believers and authority."
When Rothbacher opened up her chatterbox, she really knew everything she could talk about. Moreover, she was born in a religious family. It can be said that her ancestors have been studying how to please the gods and how to serve the great existence for generations.
, that is the accumulated experience of many generations!
After listening to Rothbacher's talk for more than an hour, Fang Linyan felt that his trip was worthwhile. He even felt that listening to you was worth ten years of reading.
Then he looked at the exchange list in the Dow Jones store, fell into deep thought, and then began to exchange one by one. You know, some of the things exchanged here can be traded, even if they are placed in the Hope Sector, they are still hard currency.
!!
When Fang Linyan began to redeem these things, Rothbacher became busy again and began to use her network to carry out intensive operations for Fang Linyan.
Of course, in this process Rothbacher also expanded his influence again and gained a lot of benefits.
Finally, after a series of twists and turns, Fang Linyan successfully got what he wanted, and then returned to the earth again with the help of the Mobius Mark.
After returning this time, Fang Linyan received good news directly. The mission assigned before had paid off. His men found the unique metal cage. Yes, it was the one that was suspected of imprisoning the abyss lord when he was a child.
However, after Fang Linyan took a look at it, he threw it directly to the experts at the institute for analysis and research. These people worked together and their research and deduction capabilities were definitely better than his own.
Then Fang Linyan immediately went to the core area of the church: in front of the icon.
At this time, a large group of people were performing a blessing ceremony. Fang Linyan gave instructions to the priestess standing next to him and asked them to prepare some matters. The priestess was a little surprised by Fang Linyan's request, but she immediately went to do it.
Fang Linyan was waiting quietly beside him. Of course, his mind was also filled with wandering thoughts.
On the way here, the Mobius Mark informed Fang Linyan that the exploration of Space S had ended.
The goddess's own vocation is wisdom, and combined with the hidden ability of the Mobius mark, she has escaped this risk without any danger.
At the same time, there is also good news, that is, the news that the sub-body of Space S has been destroyed and its vitality has been severely damaged has spread - no doubt, it was the kind person from Space R who did it.
Previously, the S space expanded wantonly, ran rampant, and occupied too many resources. However, now it was overwhelmed because the stalls were spread too wide. As a result, it was ambushed again, and its strength dropped by one-third again.
However, one-third of the strength lost this time can be slowly recovered through cultivation, unlike the subsequent damage caused by the child body killed by the Mobius mark, which is permanent.
But even so, Space S has given up several occupied resource areas at this time, fully retracted, and entered a defensive state. In a short period of time, it will have no time to take care of Fang Linyan and the others.
After receiving the long-lost good news, Fang Linyan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, the blessing ceremony had ended, and a group of believers filed out. Fang Linyan whispered a few words to the priest who was presiding next to him. Soon, the people around him cleared the place, and then the people Fang Linyan had arranged before filed in.
First, a group of people directly lit the spices mixed with ambergris and cloves. Green smoke rose up, and a rich and profound smell began to fill the air.
Then a group of girls began to decorate the entire hall with green olive branches, hyacinths, and anemones, making the place very solemn and charming in an instant.
Next came the highlight. Twelve girls wearing white priest robes filed in, holding gold cups engraved with mysterious patterns in their hands. The gold cups contained grape wine as red as blood. They stacked the gold cups one after another.
Next to the offering table, a golden and brilliant champagne tower quickly stood up.
At this time, both Evelina and the high priest had arrived after hearing the news. They were also watching the ceremony silently, watching the behavior of these female priests.
Because the two of them have already seen that Fang Linyan is planning to hold a grand sacrifice, but there are also differences between grand sacrifices. The top scale of the sacrifice is called the Thousand Cow Sacrifice, and the next level is the Hundred Cow Sacrifice, and then
Ten cow sacrifices, and so on.
After all, productivity was low in Greece at that time, and a cow was already a great wealth, so using a bull as a sacrifice was already a huge expense.
According to records, the Thousand Ox Festival has only occurred twice in the entire history.
The first time was when the Trojan War was won. Although it was called a thousand cattle, in fact only more than 300 cattle were sacrificed.
The second time was when the great Alexander the Great defeated the Persian emperor Darius III, occupied Babylon, and successfully captured the Persian capital Persepolis.
The scale of the sacrifice this time was the closest to that of a thousand bulls. The number of bulls sacrificed reached 564. After all, these bulls were all taken out by the unlucky defeated Persians.
Of course, society is progressing, and Athena is also a god who keeps pace with the times. After coming to this plane, she only inherited the name Thousand Ox Festival. The scale of the sacrifice is determined by the number of wine glasses that make up the champagne tower.
At this time, the number of wine and gold cups placed by the girl priest has exceeded 164 cups, and is still increasing. This means that the scale of this sacrifice has reached the standard of the Hundred Cow Sacrifice.
Evelina couldn't help but glance at Fang Linyan worriedly. The higher the scale of the priest, it means that the quality of the sacrifices must be better. Otherwise, if the expectation is too high, corresponding precious sacrifices will not be given.
That is a great blasphemy.
It's like you have a date with a goddess for dinner, and you are picked up and dropped off by a Rolls-Royce Phantom, and you go to a high-end place like Kaiseki Japanese cuisine, but the last gift you bring out is a pair of lace panties. Even though the goddess is more elegant and has a smile on her face, but
It must be MMP in my heart.
Then your left hand could have rested for a night, but due to this mistake, you had to work another round of high-intensity overtime.
As time goes by, the number of gold wine glasses beside it has increased, and the number of stacked champagne towers has even grown to three!
Finally, the number of gold wine glasses reached an astonishing 1024, and the number of gorgeous champagne towers stacked up was four.
After arranging the sacrificial ceremony, they began to build a golden altar in front of the statue. Its shape was also very unique, like an olive leaf magnified dozens of times.
At this time, there seemed to be an indescribable sense of majesty in the entire hall. This was a sign that the gods had arrived. Athena had sensed the upcoming grand sacrificial ceremony, and she was in the statue of the gods, expecting to receive what she was about to receive.
tributes received.
After the gorgeous champagne tower was built, the preparations for the ceremony were officially completed. Next, there was the need to sprinkle five colors of grain on the ground, prepare the five kinds of fruits for worship, and apply olive oil on them, etc., without the need for Fang Linyan to do it himself.
Stay here.
At this time, the high priest Trito Goliath received a formal request from Fang Linyan, hoping that she could serve as the officiant of this Thousand Ox Festival. The high priest did not say anything, but only confirmed that the scale of this time was indeed thousands of bulls.
The cow sacrifice was ordered to be arranged.
Soon, nearly a thousand fanatical believers flocked here to watch the ceremony. Then, after the high priest dressed up, he began to perform grand ceremonies, war dances, etc. When it reached the climax, the high priest held the golden scepter of victory.
Announce:
"Next, our Lord Knight Commander will offer the first sacrifice to the great goddess!"
Yes, the Thousand Ox Ritual is divided into five stages: the first offering, the ascending offering, the burning offering, the dusk offering, and finally the sleeping offering.
The most precious sacrifices should be offered during the fiery sacrifice, but the sacrifices at the first sacrifice are also important, because they will set the tone of the sacrifice.
