Tome of Blood

   "Oh? Discovered here so quickly? Castel's speed is quite fast..."

  After hearing the girl's words, the male noble showed surprise. He thought for a while and said:

   "I'm afraid the secret passage in the castle was discovered, and they found it so quickly, it should be Castel's vanguard..."

  The blood demon priest's eyes narrowed slightly.

  Different from male nobles, as an experienced blood demon priest, he knew that at this critical moment, Eudocia's reaction was definitely not as simple as someone breaking in here.

   Not to mention, the other party also caused her avatar to self-destruct...

"who is it?"

  He asked with a solemn expression.

  Eudocia closed his eyes to sense it, and then said:

   "It's a familiar aura. It should be the elf we've seen who took refuge in Castel. In addition... there is also the aura of the blood race. The aura is very strong, even stronger than him."

   "Elf? Sebastian? Bloodline?"

  The blood demon priest was slightly taken aback, and then his expression became serious.

  He and the girl looked at each other, and saw a trace of solemnity in each other's eyes.

  An elf whose strength has fallen to the blazing sun will not make him feel like a big enemy, but the problem is that after the last fight, he knows that the elf may have recovered his strength.

   As for Chi Yang, it is very troublesome.

   If you add a blood race who is also as powerful as Chi Yang, and maybe even stronger, it will be even more troublesome.

  Although he can activate the fallen grace and use the power of the gods to gain the strength to fight against it, it is only a short-term strength to contend with.

   If you can't win quickly, it will be full of variables.

   "Eodosia, the ceremony is suspended, bring the container and sacrifice core, and we retreat."

  The blood demon priest said decisively.

  The middle-aged nobleman was stunned:

   "Retreat? My lord priest, you said retreat?"

   "No, we have been preparing for this day for so long, even sacrificing the entire Legris family, why are we suddenly retreating?"

  The blood demon priest glanced at him:

   "The third prince has failed, and this ceremony was already a hasty and last resort..."

   "The ones chasing here are not ordinary people, but Chi Yang. The battle of Chi Yang is too dynamic and the risk is too high, let alone more than one!"

   "I have seen Sebastian, with his own strength, it is absolutely impossible to restore his strength, but he recovered..."

   "Your Excellency Chait, you are already a core believer of my Gorefiend Cult, and you also know some of the information we have collected. I think...you should know what this means..."

  After hearing the words of the blood demon priest, the expression of the male noble also changed.

  The Gorefiend Cult has been planning in the Northland for many years, the most important of which is to take advantage of the ambitions of various forces to secretly control the Northland, and to accumulate power for the descendant Gorefiend Grand Duke.

  Of course, after the failure of the divine descent ceremony in Boulder City, they had another task, which was to try to summon the Gorefiend Grand Duke again with the help of the ancient temple hidden in the North Underground.

  But ever since Boulder's divine descending ceremony was stopped by the mysterious "god", the Gorefiend Cult is like a bad luck, everything is not going well, and any plan will almost go bankrupt at a critical moment...

   The members of the Blood Demon Cult are not stupid.

All kinds of targeting over the past year are too obvious, and the source of everything stems from the failed divine descent of Boulder more than a year ago, and the statue called "God of the Night" by the Holy Royal Court. "The mysterious god.

   "Is it... that mysterious evil god? You mean, there is that mysterious evil **** standing behind him?!"

  The noble suddenly lost his voice.

   "Not impossible."

  The blood demon priest said in a deep voice.

   After finishing speaking, he began to pack up the items used for sacrifice, and said while packing up:

   "It's hard to find a suitable container, and it takes effort to accumulate the sacrifice core, but there are more than one ancient temple..."

   "Not to mention, we have obtained the power left here. Even if we leave here, we can find other places to perform the ceremony again."

   As he spoke, the blood demon priest took out a crystal clear idol from his arms.

  The statue is exactly the same as the statue enshrined in the Temple of Ancient Times. Its face is also blurred, exuding a dense brilliance, and it seems to hide some mysterious power.

   "It's about the Grand Duke's plan, it's always better to be safe."

  The blood demon priest put away the idol and said.

   "Then...how does she deal with it?"

  The nobleman pointed to Lola, Viscount Legris who was unconscious not far away.

  The priest's eyes flickered slightly:

   "It's just a sacrifice. Although it's a pity, we can't bring too much burden. Let's deal with it."

   After finishing speaking, he gestured to Eudocia with his eyes, but the girl didn't make a move.

   "Eodocia?"

  The blood demon priest frowned.

   "Keep it, it is very difficult to accumulate strength again, keep her for later use."

  The girl said.

  The blood demon priest was stunned for a moment, then squinted at Eudocia and Lola, and said in a deep voice:

   "Then put her here, leave a mark on her, and find a chance to take her away later."

  The male nobleman was not satisfied with this decision, but seeing that the two had already made a decision, he had no choice but to regretfully glance at Laura on the ground, and followed with some reluctance to evacuate.

  …

   Next, Sebastian and Yurst encountered no more obstacles.

   All the way was unimpeded until they came to the majestic temple.

When they came here, there was no sign of the Gorefiend Cult in the temple, only the huge pool of blood, surrounded by the corpses of members of the Legris family, indicating that a sacrifice was still going on here just now .

   "It is the sacrificial cross, the sacrificial weapon of the Gorefiend Grand Duke, which can isolate the detection of other existences."

   Yurst looked at the cross in the pool of blood and said.

   Soon, he also saw Laura who fell unconscious on the ground.

"Bloodlines?"

   Feeling the breath of the other party, Yurst was a little surprised.

  Sebas is not too surprised:

   "It's Lola, the head of the Legris family."

   As he spoke, he looked around and said:

   "It seems that the Legris family was abandoned by the Gorefiend Cult. I am afraid that the news just now alarmed them, and they chose to evacuate."

   "Hey, these guys... are getting more and more vigilant."

   Ulster closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then frowned:

   "There are blasphemy crosses, but they haven't left a breath behind. I'm afraid it's not easy to track."

   "What do you say? Do you want to chase?"

   "Don't bother..."

  Sebas shook his head.

   As he spoke, he walked towards the center of the altar, looking at the pattern of the devil's eye on the cross, and the thorns and roses symbol carved by the cat's paw below the pattern, with a strange look on his face:

   "They carry His Majesty's locator with them. Since they have left here, His Majesty must already know where they are."
