Four hundred and twentieth chapters live sacrifice
The people in the city were getting weaker and weaker, and finally they all fell to the ground. Underground and in some rooms that were invisible to people, the human corpses that the demons had collected before were neatly placed there, and followed by the law.
The movement of the array gradually melted and turned into blood.
"It's too late to crack it, the time is too short. This is a living sacrifice ceremony, and the people inside are being turned into sacrifices. We have no idea about the operation of this magic circle, and there is no way we can crack it in such a short time!"
Master Mordu stood outside the magic circle and observed for a moment, then shook his head and said. Azlan narrowed his eyes and then said:
"Then we can't stay here any longer. I don't know what changes will happen to this formation. It's too dangerous! The entire army retreats!"
Afterwards, the coalition forces slowly withdrew from the city of Roignelle. The overall morale was not high. After all, the morale of the entire army was damaged after such an incident.
Half an hour later, the corpses in the city had completely turned into blood and fell into the ground. All the soldiers were dead, bleeding to death from their seven orifices, which was very terrifying.
And it also began to melt gradually, and the skin was like a wax statue, which was very cautious.
After a while, all the soldiers' corpses melted into blood and seeped into the ground. Only empty shells of armor, clothing and weapons were left in the city. People who don't know would just think it was very strange.
Weird.
As all the sacrifices were turned into blood, the operation of the magic circle reached the final step, directly condensing the energy from all the sacrifices together, and finally turned into a huge light pillar and shot into the sky, illuminating the sky.
It turned blood red.
"Ah, now we're in trouble!"
On a small hill, Azran, who had already evacuated with the troops, looked at the sky and the beam of light that could be seen clearly here, and whispered.
"That's almost it!"
Minos looked with a smile on his face as he watched the huge beam of light in the sky shine straight into the world-transmitting gate, pouring powerful energy into the world-transmitting gate, causing it to begin to tremble violently.
Then, a huge black beam of light shot out from the boundary gate and lasted for half an hour.
"Welcome! And you, the great Lord Xueman!"
Minos bowed slightly and said to the several figures who appeared at the landing.
"The sacrifices are not enough, Minos, what I have come is incomplete, go and collect more sacrifices!"
In the black mist, a low and hoarse voice said.
"Yes, sir, with the help of these people, it will be easy to defeat those resisters!"
Minos said, and then looked at the powerful demons revealed in the gradually dissipating fog.
Previously, the demon mage suggested that Minos give up summoning Xueman for the time being, instead summon several other strong men to defeat the coalition forces, and then use the corpses of the coalition forces as sacrifices to summon Xueman, but Minos refused.
Although Minos knew that this was the best way, he was unwilling to delay Xueman's summons, so the two finally studied it and adopted a compromise method.
That's the origin of that magic circle. With the help of that magic circle, the demons deceived the coalition forces. The effect of the magic circle is to activate it after enough people have entered, and then sacrifice the people among them alive to increase the power of the world-piercing gate.
supply.
Because the magic circle requires time and huge cost to complete, the demons have been working hard for so long just to ensure that the magic circle is set up.
And their plan was indeed successful. The effect of the living sacrifice was better, and they were still strong soldiers. They had enough energy to summon those powerful demons, and at the same time, they could also let Xueman's spirit possess a person first.
The body of a high-level demon came to this world, and then slowly collected sacrifices to summon Xueman's true body.
After confirming that the effect of the magic circle had disappeared, the coalition forces returned to the location of Rovaniere City. After collecting the remaining armor and relics of the sacrificed soldiers, the coalition forces welcomed Ronan's return.
"Why, I don't think you are of high quality?"
In the conference room, Ronan came here directly as soon as he came back, and other leaders also came here in advance to wait for Ronan after receiving the news.
"Something happened, but it's not important anymore. Did you get the things?"
Azran said, and Ronan nodded, then placed the box he was carrying on the table, opened the lid of the box, and revealed the golden spear inside.
"Is this it? It doesn't look like anything special!"
A city-state leader came up and said, Ronan shook his head and said:
"It does look like an ordinary gorgeous spear, but I have experimented with it. It can indeed absorb magic power and amplify it and concentrate it into a powerful attack. I just don't know where its upper limit is. Is it enough to destroy the world?
Door!"
"If it's the same as the rumors, then it's enough. Without further ado, let's summon the mages immediately to store magic power for it!"
Furion counted, and then looked at Mage Mordo. After all, the main force of mages is still the Mage Association from the Hinterlands. Only the mages from other countries combined will be equal to the Hinterlands.
"Okay, let's start now!"
Modu nodded, then picked up the golden spear and walked out of the room. Others followed Modu's footsteps and walked out to the military camp.
The capacity of this spear is indeed bottomless. It can drain a mage's magic power in just a short while. The magicians inject magic into the spear one after another. In less than ten minutes, more than thirty people have changed.
.
"This is so inefficient!"
Ronan frowned and said, Modu walked to Ronan, shook his head and said:
"But this is the only way. Although you can use the spirit-gathering magic circle to directly let dozens of mages infuse the spears with magic, there will be losses, and the recovery speed of the mages is not that fast. Now this is almost enough.
Keeping the recovery and consumption equal, it only hurts these mages, they have to endure the pain of insufficient magic power for a long time, and we will not get the help of mages in the subsequent battles!"
"That is indeed a problem! Let's take this time to recuperate. The demons have just suffered serious losses and should not take the initiative to attack us in a short time. Our top priority now is to fill the spear with magic power and then march to
Within the range, destroy the world-penetrating gate in one fell swoop! But who will use this spear at that time is also a question. If the body is not tough enough, I am afraid it will be torn into pieces directly due to the huge magic power!"
