The scarlet moonlight reflected on the snow, and the whole mountain was dyed red.
An Wu Jiu felt that his hands were already frozen, as if they were stuck to the sarcophagus, and he couldn't let go at all.
among.
"Is that there!"
An Wujiu looked in the direction pointed by Tengtang Sakura, it was the position of the top of the mountain, there was a mysterious blue flame burning on the top, eagles and vultures were circling above the flame .
A stench lingered in the thick fog.
Everyone worked together to carry the sarcophagus towards the top of the mountain. When they got close, they found that the fire was burning higher than people. The sarcophagus was placed heavily on the ground, and snow and dust flew up and got into the nasal cavity.
An Wujiu coughed a few times and looked down into the distance. The strange "screaming" sound still did not disappear, but appeared irregularly, stretched, and penetrated the entire water city.
A voice appeared, but it wasn't the holy voice they were familiar with, it was a strange language they didn't understand, a vague, sticky voice that seemed to come from the depths of the throat .
Everyone listened and looked around, only to feel that it seemed to come from this flaming blue flame.
But An Wujiu doesn't think so.
"Now that you are here, let's get started."
He turned his head and looked at the person who said this.
That was Noah, her eyes were staring straight at the flame, her eyes were completely reflecting the fire, turning into a beautiful and eerie blue, and her face had completely lost its vitality, Like a fake, controlled puppet.
She repeated the words just now, as if being controlled by the flames, driven by the flames to speak a language they could understand.
An Wujiu called her softly, so Noah twisted his neck stiffly and stared at An Wujiu.
In an instant, the blue contractions that spread in her pupils generally faded and returned to normal.
"What's wrong? Brother Wu blame."
Her voice was full of innocence, but it fell into An Wujiu's ears, but it overlapped with the voice in the flames just now.
An Wujiu felt extremely uncomfortable, a sharp sound like metal friction flashed repeatedly in his head, “What were you looking at just now?”
Noah raised his hand and pointed at the fire.
It was the seed of God, she said.
An Wujiu didn't understand what she meant, the next moment, the flame sent out a new command, which was also a strange unknown language.
And Noah opened his mouth and passed it on for everyone.
"Start your sacrifices, you human beings who know the oracles, everything belongs to the Sovereign Lord."
As soon as he finished speaking, An Wu Jiu felt his hands move uncontrollably!
Like him, everyone is like this, they are automatically driven by some unknown mysterious force to make various actions. Lao Yu pulled Andrew out of the sarcophagus, Matsuura laid him flat on the ground, Wu You held his chest, Nan Shan fed the unconscious him a glass of liquid from a stone tool, Yang Ce and Zhou Yijue lifted him up together The heavy stone plate, before the flames.
Noah beat the drum stiffly, and Megan placed the stone frame and the sharp thorn pillars, and Todo Sakura held up what seemed to be a musical instrument in both hands, Slowly raise your hand and bring it to your lips.
Tengtang Sakura blew this ancient musical instrument, hoarse, low voice mixed with sharpness, blending with the heavy drum sound, each sound like a sharp knife, one by one, stabbed into their chest.
Fear crawls slowly on the skin like a reptile.
An Wujiu's hand was shaking, his arm was folded inward stiffly, the power inside seemed to be looking for something from him, his hand groped uncontrollably, and finally he held it That sharp knife.
His legs and feet were also out of his control, and he moved forward step by step, approaching Andrew's body.
"Come on, human."
"Everything you have comes from me, the sun, the rain, the power, the secrets of life, the precious knowledge to survive... These are all given by me."
Her body sank suddenly, her knees could not support her, and she knelt on the ground.
"I gave you life!"
The voice was empty and loud, and they were just a few humans on the small hilltops in the world of ice and snow, standing in the middle of the thick fog, unable to see everything around them. Only the blood-colored full moon above their heads grew bigger and bigger, pressing them heavily, and the edge of the moon seemed to touch the top of the mountain.
It is so large that you can barely see the border.
Shen Ti's heart was empty and painful, it was a vague and unreal feeling. He found that everyone seemed to be driven by an unnatural force, making regular movements, like machines.
Even Ann is the same.
He saw An Wujiu kneeling in front of Andrew, pulling his hand from his robe, holding an obsidian sharp knife that shone under the blood moon.
"Come, pierce his chest with these holy hands!"
"The heart is cut out of obsidian and dedicated to the icy blue flame!"
An Wu Jiu was icy cold all over, he almost used all his strength to resist the power that enveloped him.
Then his hands began to tremble, and his heart suddenly stopped for a moment.
Then suddenly, his heart beat violently, not like a human being, and a hot stream of heat was pumped out of his heart, one by one, spreading rapidly and violently to the whole body.
Green, large tracts of green flowing in this land, as if it was going to go into the eyes of An Wugui.
So he fell back heavily, but not on the cold snow, but in Shen Ti's arms.
His eyes closed painfully, his fingers loosened, and the obsidian sharp knife fell to the ground.
"No blame, no blame..." Shen Ti tried to wake up, but to no avail, before he woke up, the sharp knife beside them was suddenly held by a pale hand and took away .
Shen Ti raised his head, his pupils dilated for a moment.
It's Noah.
Noah's two small hands held the obsidian sharp knife, raised it high above his head, and then slammed it down.
"Noah—"
Just as Shen Ti hugged An Wujiu and shouted, the warm liquid splashed on his face, and a scarlet montage was covered on his left eye.
"Heart, I need a beating heart!"
The voice whispered repeatedly, and everything in front of her was as eerie as a nightmare.
Shen Ti frowned, picked up the fainted An Wujiu by the waist, and prepared to be here, but the next second, the vultures and eagles hovering in the sky swooped down, the purpose is Noah .
Noah bent down, intending to put the sacrifice in his hand into the concave circle in the center of the stone plate.
Shen Ti originally wanted to watch, but now he is no longer the original him, he knew that if it was An Wujiu, he would definitely save Noah.
So he did that, he fell on Noah and covered Noah's face with his own body. Those black raptors rushed towards her hand and took the sacrifice that was still beating in her hand.
They shred it and eat it, disappearing in an instant.
Shen Ti raised her eyes and met Noah's blue eyes, a strange smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, as if she felt ridiculous and proud that he saved her.
This must be an illusion.
Shen Ti backed away and wanted to reach out to La Noah to get up, but Noah just stretched out her **** hand, but didn't let Shen Ti hold it.
The musical instrument in Tengtang Sakura's hand let out a mournful cry, Shen Ti vaguely heard Noah spit out a few words, but couldn't understand the content, and could only see the wriggling of her lips in the mist.
The stele is engraved with Andrew Greco.
"Sleep in peace, heavy body, your heart is with God."
Noah's rose-colored lips opened and closed, and he uttered the strange words of fire in a pure voice.
"I need to devour your fragility, confusion, anger, fear, despair, deepest despair, enough, enough to make me reborn."

"You will witness my return."
After saying this, Noah also fell to the snow, and at the same time, the originally flaming flame shrank into a spark and disappeared in the wind.
The thick fog gradually dissipated, and the people who were controlled by the unknown force gradually regained their clarity, while An Wujiu, who was sleeping in Shen Ti’s arms, was full of blood.
"No blame, no blame!"
Wu You, who woke up from the hallucination, also found An Wu Jiao who was unconscious, he immediately squatted down and stretched his fingers to probe An Wu Jiao's breath.
He's not breathing!
"No fault!"
Shen Ti didn't believe it, he stretched out his hand to hold An Wujiu's chest, pressing it tightly, feeling that the lines under the skin on the back of his hand were almost squeezed out.
At this moment, An Wu Jiu’s heart skipped a beat.
He opened his eyes slowly.
What Wu You could not have imagined was that his pupils turned green, and a blood moon was reflected in the emerald green pupils.
But in only two to three seconds, An Wu Jiu's pupils gradually darkened and darkened, and finally returned to his own black pupils.
"It's over?"
An Wujiu's voice was weak.
Wu You nodded, "It's over. Let's... let's go back."
After he finished speaking, he heard Noah scream.
Toudou Sakura hugged her body and covered her eyes.
This evening, they seem to have experienced the most terrifying nightmare, uncontrolled hands, uncontrolled lives.
Shen Ti also saw An Wu Jiao's eyes, the moment he woke up, his eyes were exactly the same as his own.
On the way back to the temple, An Wujiu kept replaying the images of the evening sacrifice in his mind, interspersed with his childhood memories, these images seemed to be seen in his childhood, maybe In a book, or perhaps his mother's dictation on his bedtime pillow.
He raised his hand and grabbed the clothes on his left chest.
Why only Shen Ti can be completely out of control when offering sacrifices?
Why he can break through that spiritual imprisonment, and others can't.
An Wu Jiu knew that Shen Ti was special, but he wanted to know why he was special too.
The shrine was dead silent. The twelve people they had when they came here became eleven people, and one of them turned into a tombstone on the top of the mountain. The crowd silently ate and swallowed dry tortillas to maintain their basic survivability, while the fear that was hard to dissipate a few hours ago was still in their throats.
An Wujiu knows that he will lose his eyesight soon, but he is about to receive an important message.
He drank the water in the stone cup, and the liquid that was so cold that it almost condensed opened his throat like a sharp blade. An Wu Jiu saw Tengtang Ying's trembling hands and Lao Yu's absent pupils.
He thought, if they stay here for a long time, maybe they will lose their minds.
The holy voice appeared at this time, "Everyone, the curfew time is coming soon. You have worked hard all day, please go back to your room and rest as soon as possible."
He specifically instructed, "Today, each of you must sleep in the corresponding room, because someone will leave tonight, and you have no antidote for resurrection."
As soon as the voice fell, the lights in the hall flickered.
Everyone left here in despair. Shen Ti wanted to follow An Wujiu, but he stopped him.
"I'm afraid you'll foul me."
An Wujiu raised his face and placed a kiss on Shen Ti's cool lips.
"I'll be fine." He comforted Shen Ti.
In the dark corridor, Shen Ti watched An Wujiu's back go away a little bit, and he didn't turn around until he was nowhere near the corner.
In the room, the bone-chilling cold wrapped his innocent body. Before his vision disappeared, he retrieved the three Easter egg cards he had obtained from the panel.
"Do you want to draw easter eggs now?"
An Wujiu responded to the system tone, "Yeah."
Today's sacrifice aggravated the fear in his heart, he was afraid that he would really lose Shen Ti and lose his companions.
The first card jumped in front of him, the back of the virtual card was facing An Wujiu with a brightly colored egg on it.
"Please click."
An Wujiu stretched out his index finger and touched the card, the card shook, and finally shattered into countless light spots, and those light spots gathered together to become a new white card.
"Sorry, your first easter egg card did not draw any feature cards."
Is it a waste of time?
An Wujiu's palms were almost sweating, he picked another orange one, took a deep breath, and touched the Easter egg on the card.
The shattered light flew like a firefly, revolving in this crimson room, and finally condensed into a brand new card, this time the card was still white.
An Wu Jiu was a little disappointed, and felt that his luck was indeed a little worse.
If possible, he would rather find someone to help him draw, but he thought about it quickly and found that few of his companions and friends seem to have good luck.
The white card was turned over, and what was different from what he expected was that this time the front of the card was painted with a beautiful picture, a beautiful witch holding an ancient clock, and the SS logo was printed in the lower left corner.
"Congratulations on getting a time shift card."
Time shift?
An Wujiu read the instructions on the card.
"This card is limited to one time use. Players can use their own health to exchange time before the game ends, so as to turn back time. All of the player's health can be converted into half of the game process to reverse the flow. By analogy, players who use cards can choose the time they need to convert, and the system will automatically deduct the corresponding health value."
This function is stronger than An Wujiu imagined, he thought it was to prolong the game time, but according to the introduction, it is a retrospective.
Even if it can only be used once, it is already very powerful, and he can go back to a time when a companion was not in danger.
An Wu Jiu saw a small glowing orange dot in the lower right corner of the card, he clicked it, and other cards were displayed in front of him.
“The following are the same type of skill cards, which can also be obtained by drawing Easter egg cards.”
An Wujiu looked at it, there were three cards in total, and sure enough, there were also the extended time cards he imagined, the middle one was the time card of stilling others, and the other one was the time reversal card.
The rightmost one has SSS printed on it and appears to be one of the rarest cards.
The pattern on it is many interlaced silver-gray lines, overlapping the same galaxy.
It says the space-time card.
The introduction of this card is very simple, the player who holds this card can dissolve the boundary of time and space, reverse and speed up the time and space, but correspondingly, the player will pay a huge price, such as losing almost all health, Or a 90 percent reduction in capacity, the cost of which varies from person to person.
The stronger the skill, the more terrifying the price.
An Wujiu wanted to open the third card, but the system reminded him that the number of draws for today has been exhausted and cannot be drawn.
At the same time, An Wujiu lost all his eyesight and fell into darkness.
After a while, a **** arrow appeared in front of him, pointing in the direction of the door.
"It's getting dark, please keep your eyes open."
"Please go to the graveyard and check whether the player who sacrificed today is good or bad."
