Chapter 221: Evil God Projection

Chapter 221 Projection of the Evil God

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Explosions continued to ring out within the crowd.

Mad Black Cultists detonated themselves amidst the people, harming the innocent.

The guiding light pillar on the altar was also dyed with a layer of blood color.

Ots' face darkened.

The clergyman said anxiously, "City Lord, you must find a way to stop them, otherwise they might very well summon the Evil God."

"I know."

Ots' gaze swept over the crowd before him.

There must be something wrong among these people.

Otherwise, even if the Black Cultists created slaughter in the crowd, they could not interfere with the god-sacrificing ritual.

"Suppress!"

At Ots' command, a group of plainclothes professionals rushed out from the crowd.

Li Wei looked up, revealing an expression of surprise.

He saw several acquaintances.

The three from the Grass Fox Squad.

Lanya, Dias, and Lisa.

Kunan was nowhere to be seen; he wondered if he was still alive.

Lena also saw her friend Susan's figure in the crowd.

These people all belonged to City Lord Ots' special operations unit.

All composed of professionals.

After professional training, they had already become a formidable force.

The hidden Black Cultists in the crowd were all ordinary people who had been bewitched.

They were quickly suppressed by the professional special operations team.

Soldiers dispersed the crowd and treated the wounded.

Ots did not look at the chaotic scene below, but turned his head to look at the clergyman.

"Please continue the ritual."

Hearing this, the clergyman quickly came to his senses and continued to preside over the ritual.

Only after spending a large amount of extra sacrificial items to dilute and clear the blood color in the light pillar did the ritual return to normal.

Li Wei glanced around, feeling that the matter was not yet over.

On the altar, a professional suddenly convulsed all over and fell to the ground.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?"

People nearby asked hurriedly.

"Don't get close to him!"

Someone shouted a warning from not far away.

Boom!

The fallen professional's body exploded directly, splashing several people around with blood.

Others were unlucky enough to be injured by the explosion.

After the explosion, a pool of twisted and eerie runes formed by fresh blood appeared on the altar.

Li Wei's heart gave a jolt.

"This is the Blood Cultists' method; have they joined forces with the Black Cultists?"

Boom boom boom!

Several more professionals fell in the crowd.

Those who reacted quickly shouted urgently, "Stop them quickly!"

One person fell not far from Li Wei.

Convulsing all over, blood gushed from his seven orifices, forming eerie runes on the ground.

Without thinking, Li Wei raised his hand and blasted a fireball out.

Boom!

The flames engulfed that person's figure.

Hiss hiss hiss! Crackling and popping!

The blood runes that had not yet solidified were scorched and lost their effect.

The scorching flames burned the corpse, turning the body into ash.

Boom boom boom!

Other directions were not so lucky.

Even though the fallen professionals were killed, their corpses would still self-detonate.

It looked completely beyond their own control.

The altar became incredibly chaotic.

The light pillar was dyed with another layer of red, black showing through the red.

Ots' face had never looked good.

He never expected so many people to be bewitched by the Evil God cultists.

Preventing everyone from participating in the god-sacrificing ritual was impossible.

Because they were also part of the god-sacrificing ritual.

Faith was also a sacrifice to attract the gods to descend.

The more people, the more faith, the stronger the gods that could be attracted.

If preparations were sufficient, the gods might not descend.

Without witnesses, the gods would certainly not descend.

Without needing Ots' order, the City Lord's personal guard responsible for maintaining order in the crowd had already moved to suppress the abnormal ones.

Lena wanted to go down to help.

Old John stopped her, "Leave it alone, stay here."

Lena looked at her father, wanting to say something, then fell silent again.

She stood quietly in place, waiting for the deity to descend.

"The Holy Ancestor descends! I shall attain immortality!"

A practitioner suddenly went mad, shouting and screaming.

Then, he rushed toward the second-tier altar. "Stop him!"

The practitioners standing at the front were not weak in strength.

Most of them were at the second or third tier.

However, a shocking power erupted from that man.

A surge of blood-colored energy exploded outward.

In an instant, the power even surpassed the fourth tier.

Everyone was startled in their hearts and dared not approach.

Someone struck from afar attempting to stop the man's steps, but it was completely useless.

Lena looked at the person rushing over.

She raised her right hand.

"Welcome the Holy Ancestor's descent!"

That man roared loudly, and the blood-colored energy within his body became extremely frenzied.

Boom!

He self-destructed on the spot.

"Absolute Defense!"

A golden wall formed by combat qi blocked in front of that man.

A self-explosion comparable to a fourth-tier practitioner's full-power strike could not shake the Absolute Defense.

The explosive force was blocked.

Absolute Defense could block the explosion, but it could not stop the blood-colored eerie runes from falling.

The blood-colored runes fell upon the altar.

In the blink of an eye, they dyed a portion of the altar red.

The light pillar turned blood-red, emitting an ominous aura.

Lena looked up; the originally clear and bright sky was now shrouded by a layer of dark clouds.

The blood-colored light pillar pierced straight through the dark clouds.

Levi looked up, vaguely seeing something moving.

The huge shadow overhead was not dark clouds at all.

It was something from outside the world.

Its volume was unimaginably large, blocking out vast swathes of sunlight, making the sky look shrouded in dark clouds.

Oats, expressionless, took out a crystal filled with holy light from his spatial ring.

He handed the crystal to the clergyman.

"You know what to do."

The clergyman silently accepted the crystal and nodded firmly.

The situation had already reached its worst point.

If an evil god is summoned, then the altar must be destroyed directly.

To prevent the evil god from descending.

But this way, the god-sacrifice ritual is also declared ended.

At least for several years, Oats will have no opportunity to hold another grand god-sacrifice ritual.

This ceremony has already exhausted nearly all of his assets.

A faint black phantom appeared in mid-air.

The gigantic phantom occupied the entire sky, its height exceeding ten thousand li.

Levi silently retreated, preparing to run away.

It looks somewhat unfavorable.

"What are you doing?"

A cry of shock rang out from the altar.

Martin, Comas, and others stared with wide eyes at Jonas.

Jonas held a black heart in his hand.

It was his own heart.

He crushed the heart, and as it burst, it turned into black gas that drilled into the altar.

"Why did you do this?"

Old John looked at him, deeply confused.

The Bieber family and the Reinster family were both top families in Maple City.

There were not few conflicts between the two great families.

Old John and Jonas could be said to be both enemies and friends.

Seeing an old friend do such a thing, he found it very incomprehensible.

This completely did not fit Jonas's personality.

Jonas glanced at Old John and said calmly, "It's too late, everything is too late."

"Arnold is the mastermind behind the scenes."

Hearing this, Oats was startled in his heart.

Jonas tilted his head, fell to the ground, and breathed his last.

The black gas drilling into the altar dyed the altar black, and the light pillar gradually changed from black-red to pure black.

The evil god projection gradually emerging in mid-air began to fade.

A huge black claw descended from the sky, tearing apart the evil god projection that reached ten thousand li high.

The sky cracked open a seam, and an eyeball as huge as a star appeared in the crack.

The Star Eye rotated, looking down upon everyone.

Everyone felt a chill run down their spines.

Levi looked, yet felt it was strangely familiar.
