Chapter 69 Life Sacrifice

Chapter 69 Life Sacrifice
"Why hasn't that guy arrived yet?"

Qiao Lin stayed alone in the set up tent waiting for the executioner to arrive.

Qiao Lin knew that his betrayal would be easily exposed, and the executioner who was monitoring him would probably kill him at the first opportunity. However, since he had made up his mind, Qiao Lin was not afraid of death at all, and he had already thought of dying together with the executioner.

It is easy to imagine the fate of his wife and daughter. Qiao Lin has truly lost all hope in life. His only goal now is to fight for that glimmer of hope for Rose Lowe.

This was all he could do to protect the magic barrier from being destroyed.

But... after Qiao Lin used various excuses to get rid of Ferro and Drayton, the executioner still hadn't arrived after waiting for a long time. With that guy's speed, he should have arrived long ago.

What was going on? Qiao Lin really didn't understand. Could it be that the organization let him off the hook because of his hard work and selfless dedication over the years? This would probably be the biggest joke.

As a member of Revelation, Qiao Lin certainly knows better than anyone what the consequences will be of resisting orders from the highest levels of the organization, especially at this moment of life and death.

After waiting for a long time without seeing the person he was waiting for, Qiao Lin couldn't help but think of his wife and daughter.

When they got married, he took his wife's hand and promised to protect her for the rest of her life.

After his daughters were born, he held their hands and said, "I will cherish you forever."

But today, he sent the two most important people in his life into the abyss.

Do you regret it? Qiao Lin asked himself, he regretted it very much, he wished that time could go back, maybe at that moment he would make another decision.

……

Quiet, as quiet as death...

Hundreds of people stood under the throne, silent as a mouse, not even making a sound when breathing.

Morais on the throne took off his armor and put on a black floral robe. He sat on the throne with an expressionless face and stared down.

His originally golden hair had turned completely gray at some point, even his eyebrows had turned white.

"Tell me what we should do." The hoarse voice sounded like an old man who was about to die.

In just ten minutes since he lost contact with the executioner, everyone witnessed Morais's transition from middle age to old age.

No one spoke, no one dared to speak, and no one knew what to say.

Even the backup plan left by Morais failed.

It doesn't matter whether the executioner betrayed or failed in his mission. The most important thing now is how to clean up the current mess.

The true vampire is about to break the seal and come out. Once she comes again, it will be the true doomsday of Revelation. The strongest people in the world are simply not something that human beings can contend with, even those who are extraordinary are no exception.

Their world-class magic circle of protection has been broken, and the last remaining seal is about to be broken. The foundation of Revelation has really been completely consumed by the true vampire.

The amount of soul resentment was not enough, although it was only a little bit short, but this was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

It looked like this magic circle of twelve pillars had become extremely dark and its magical power was sky-high, but everyone knew that if the soul resentment was sufficient, it would definitely not be in its current state.

"Chief, we still have one last choice."

At this time, the high priest suddenly stood up. He looked up and looked at Morais, saying, "As long as we work together, and with the help of those monsters that have been controlled, we should be able to meet the final needs of the twelfth demon pillar."

As soon as he finished speaking, the members of the Apocalypse who had been lowering their heads all raised their heads, with a look of panic in their eyes.

It can be seen that those people were somewhat resistant to the "final choice" mentioned by the high priest.

"You mean that?" Morais said coldly.

"good."

The high priest ignored Morais's cold gaze and continued, "As long as that master comes, we all have a chance to be resurrected, but if we are killed by the vampire progenitor, then we are really finished. When the truth is revealed later, I'm afraid the people of the Holy See will be very happy." "Holy See!"

When these three words were mentioned, even though Morais looked old now, he still burst out with the terrifying aura of an outlier.

These three have not been mentioned in the Book of Revelation since Morais came to power. Everyone is very secretive about it and dares not mention it easily. Unexpectedly, the high priest mentioned it at this time.

Those who knew the secret were all worried about the high priest. If Morais couldn't control his emotions, the high priest would probably be beheaded.

Surprisingly, Morais, who was expected to be furious, did not say anything more but closed his eyes instead.

Seeing this scene, the corners of the high priest's mouth under the mask drew a slight curve.

The rest of the people looked at each other, it seemed that the situation was not good.

One minute, two minutes, five minutes, ten minutes, twenty minutes...

Time passed by, and Morais seemed to have no sign of opening his eyes, while the atmosphere in the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons became more and more solemn, and those members seemed to have guessed something.

"Bring everyone here and prepare for the life sacrifice ceremony."

Morais closed his eyes and gave this instruction calmly.

His words made almost everyone except the high priest shudder and feel chilled to the heart.

"Chief, do you really want to do that?"

A senior man stood up, suppressing his inner fear and asking in a trembling voice.

The answer was a sword, and Morais casually threw out his purple-black sword. Although the man was also very powerful, he did not have time to react to the sword thrown by Morais, and watched helplessly as the sword pierced through his chest.

"I..." He looked at the sword that had pierced his body in disbelief, stretched out his hand to say something, but his right hand fell down weakly just halfway through.

Flames suddenly burst out from the purple-black sword, instantly burning the man's body to ashes.

"Those who betray that master will die!"

"Does anyone else have any objections?" Morais asked indifferently.

No one spoke anymore, not even daring to breathe. The air was still filled with the smell of burning corpses. They all saw clearly the fate of the person who had just stood out.

"Give away your soul and ask that Lord to come down, so that we still have hope of resurrection."

"Otherwise, give your body as well."

Resurrection magic is a large-scale ritual magic that can only be performed with the physical body as the carrier. It is impossible to resurrect a person out of thin air without the physical body.

It seems that there is only that one choice. After all, the people in the Book of Revelation all have extremely high faith. However, it is difficult for anyone to accept the fact that they are suddenly asked to die.

"I will follow the leader's orders."

All the people retreated one after another and began the final preparations.

In addition to the high-ranking officials who died in the battle, the remaining combatants, logistics personnel, reserve personnel, etc. in the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons are probably close to 10,000. Such a large-scale sacrificial ceremony is not so easy to organize.

Everyone retreated, leaving only Morais and the high priest in the huge hall.

"It has finally come to this." Morais said to himself.

"This is the best outcome." The high priest seemed to be talking to himself.
