Secret: The undead do not die in the fire

Chapter 329 Seven Great Gods Serving Me Alone
An empty lot on the outskirts of Backlund.

Klein had already arranged the altar in advance and engraved the corresponding symbolic symbols, magic signs, and strange patterns on it. These things came from the symbols behind the chair of Miss Magician above the gray fog, and Klein's divination results above the gray fog also showed that these symbols were confirmed to be correct.

Just then, a rustling sound was heard from the woods in the distance.

Klein cast a sharp look and saw a short woman walking towards them with a young man whose hands were tied behind his back.

"Gehrman Sparrow?"

The short woman stopped not far away and looked suspiciously at Klein, who was standing next to the altar and looked like a cult leader.

Klein, who had transformed into Gehrman Sparrow, said in a hoarse voice:
"it's me."

Based on their experience at the Tarot Club, they had already recognized each other's figures and voices, and both parties quickly confirmed each other's identities.

'The World', Gehrman Sparrow, and 'The Judgment', Hugh Dilchar.

Thanks to the help of the Hall family, Xio now works at MI4 and has reached the rank of colonel. If she can successfully advance to Sequence , she can even be promoted to the rank of Major General Deputy Director of MI.

Xio kicked the young man whose hands were tied behind his back on the inside of his knee, causing him to kneel on the ground screaming in pain. He then said coldly:

"This is the man you want, Francis Yeager, a 'Broken Winged Angel' of Sequence 8 on the 'Criminal' Path. He ate his own parents alive to become a Beyonder. He committed numerous crimes including robbery, rape, murder and kidnapping. He has killed dozens of people in Backlund in just one month. He deserves to be cut into pieces."

Gehrman Sparrow laughed darkly and said:
"He's exactly the kind of person I need."

Xio frowned slightly, said nothing more, turned around and left.

Seeing the guard leave, the young man suddenly felt relieved. He immediately put on a flattering smile and approached Klein:
"Mr. Hermann, what do you need me to do?"

Klein looked at him deeply and laughed softly:
"you know me?"

"of course."

Francis Yeager showed a look of reverence and said excitedly:

“You may not know this, but Crazy Adventurer has always been an idol for people like us!”

"I don't want to be an idol to someone like you at all!"

Klein complained silently in his heart, but his expression remained calm as he said calmly:
"I need you to do me a favor."

Francis said with a flattering smile.

“See that altar?”

Klein pointed to the altar in front of him with a 'friendly' smile on his face:

"I need you to help me perform a ritual, summon a being, and offer him a deal. You won't refuse, right?"

Francis Yeager swallowed his saliva and shook his head quickly:
"No, it won't..."

Would he dare to say yes in front of this crazy adventurer?

"very good."

Klein smiled with satisfaction. He personally helped Francis untie him and patted him on the shoulder.

"As long as you perform well enough, I can consider letting you join the organization."

Upon hearing this, Francis Yeager was immediately energized and excitedly swore an oath of loyalty.

Can ordinary people join the organization that the crazy adventurer belongs to?

Even the colonel of MI9 is ​​a member of this organization. Who knows if there are other high-ranking officials of other official organizations who are also members of this organization? MI9 has traitors of this organization. Who knows if there are any of the seven major orthodox churches?

If there is, how terrifying such an organization would be!
And being able to join such an organization is definitely the dream of a criminal like Francis!

Looking at the excited Francis, Klein still had a 'kind' smile on his face as he told him the details of the ceremony.

I even took him to rehearse it in advance to prevent any accidents.

At the same time, the scene in front of Klein flashed, and several figures appeared out of thin air in the open space in front of him.

It was the embers and the sacrifice he prepared!
Klein immediately stepped forward and carried the three prepared offerings onto the altar one by one, placing them in the correct positions. He looked at Francis and urged him coldly:
"let's start."

Francis was obviously a little nervous, but he still followed the steps he had just rehearsed, looked at the only candle on the altar, and raised his hand to light it.

Klein took a few steps back and asked in a low voice:

"That old man is Antigonus?"

There are three people on the altar. The young man is the 'Secret Saint', the woman is the 'Parasite' in the sewer, and the identity of the old man is obvious - the ancestor of the Antigonus family!
"Do not."

Yu Jin shook his head calmly:

"His name is Zaratul."

“Zaratul?” Klein’s expression was a little subtle. Yu Jin was clearly going to find the ancestor of the Antigonus family, so how did it suddenly become Zaratul?

Could it be that Zaratul offered himself to him?
It's very possible.

Zaratul must also be coveting the extraordinary characteristics and uniqueness of the half-Fool. In addition, since he doesn't know Yu Jin well enough, it is not impossible that he would appear in front of Yu Jin with the idea of ​​seeking wealth and honor at the risk of his own accord...

Klein mourned for Zaratul in his heart for a few seconds. Even those "weird wizards" hid well, but you, a sequence 1 angel, actually died earlier than those "weird wizards". Shouldn't you reflect on your own problems?
But it doesn’t matter, after all, Zaratul has no chance to reflect.

At the same time, Francis on the altar took a few steps back and recited in Giant language with great solemnity:

“The great gate of gates;

“Leader of the endless starry sky;
"The key to all mysteries.

"I pray that you will respond, that you will come into this world..."

Before he finished speaking, three bang sounds were heard from the altar.

The three demigod-level monsters corresponding to the 'Weird Mage', 'Secret Mage' and 'Parasite' seemed to be pinched by invisible hands. After just a slight struggle, they exploded and turned into balls of flesh and blood that flashed with spots of different colors.

These flesh and blood seemed to have their own vitality. Under the guidance of some indescribable force, they gathered in the air and outlined one evil and filthy symbol after another.

Countless symbols combined together and slowly formed a door that looked like flesh and blood was still wriggling, and it was more than five meters high.

The gate stood on the altar, and it was dark inside, and no one knew where it led to.

The candle representing Mr. Gate suddenly burst into flames, illuminating the entire 'Gate of Flesh and Blood' and the darkness.

In the darkness, there were balls of light that were faintly condensed from the stars. Upon closer inspection, they all looked like strange insects with bent bodies. The balls of light quickly rose up and formed a huge arm that had difficulty passing through the "Gate of Flesh and Blood".

This arm, which was clearly not human, was pressed against the altar and pushed outward with great force, causing the entire 'Gate of Flesh and Blood', even the entire forest and the entire city to shake, like an earthquake.

Francis looked at this scene in horror and subconsciously wanted to escape from the altar, but his vision suddenly became half blurred.

Snapped!
Something fell from his face into the grass.

Francis subconsciously lowered his head and saw an eyeball with bulging blood vessels rolling there.

Snap, snap, snap! His nose, his ears, his remaining eye and all the muscles on his body fell down piece by piece, all permeated with a little starlight.

"help me……"

Francis looked at the two people under the altar, stretched out his hand with difficulty, and moved his lips but no sound came out.

Pfft!
His body fell down, and his flesh and blood completely collapsed.

At this time, the arm finally squeezed through the 'gate of flesh and blood' and began to try to pull out the subsequent part.

Rumble!
In the illuminated darkness behind the door, thick lightning bolts formed a storm and fell down, but were swallowed up by the sudden surge of blood-red tide.

Finally, a huge figure composed of pure 'light balls' passed through the 'Gate of Flesh and Blood'.

The next second, those 'light balls' began to collapse and overlap, as if undergoing a reorganization that could produce a qualitative change. Dark cracks from the void appeared one after another in the surrounding forest.

These gaps literally engulf different parts of the trees, giving them strange shapes.

At the same time, a hurricane blew out of the gap from somewhere unknown, sweeping in all directions, as if causing an earthquake in the whole world!
On the carriage back to Backlund, Xio, who was returning to the city, suddenly heard the sound of doors opening one after another.

Every door in different places and locations in this city opened by itself at this moment.

"This..." Xio couldn't help but turn his head to look at the suburban forest that seemed to be the source of the abnormality.

That was the direction she had just left.

Mr. World and Mr. Lover, what are they doing?
Bang!

The moment the door was opened, Audrey Hall, who was sitting in front of the dressing table in the luxurious villa of Earl Hall's family, was somewhat suspicious, and outside the corridor was a panicked maid. The golden retriever Susie rushed into the room and looked at Audrey with the same uneasy look.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In cities such as Backlund, Trier, and Saint-Miron, everything that could be called a door was opened.
-
In Winter County, inside a quiet church that is regarded as a holy place, a majestic and magnificent church rises from the ground.

Every pillar, every arch, and every dome of the church was inlaid with the bones of different races. They were crowded together in a dense and chaotic manner, gazing at the hall with their empty eyes, surrounding a cross that was hundreds of meters long.

In front of the cross, a vague figure stood there, as if watching everything with compassion.

On the walls, windows, and doors of the church, transparent and distorted faces appeared, as if countless souls were sealed inside, making it impossible for the extraordinary people to feel the existence of the spiritual world and the astral world anymore!
This is a charnel house, a charnel house that is not eerie at all but full of holiness.

But no matter whether it is gloomy or holy, the appearance of such a church of bones in the Church of Tranquility is undoubtedly a blasphemy, a blasphemy to the Goddess of Night!
The moment the Church of Bones appeared, darkness completely enveloped it.

Deep darkness spread from the stained glass windows high up in the Church of Bones, shrouding the church both inside and outside, without a single ray of light. In the deep darkness, a lady with ordinary features, dark eyes, wearing a simple robe, a bark belt, long black hair, no shoes or socks, and bare feet was outlined.

It is the Servant of Secrets, Arianna!
Arianna's eyes almost instantly locked onto the priest sitting in the first row of benches in the church from the darkness, and the priest was not surprised by his arrival. In fact, Adam did not want to provoke the goddess of night if it was not necessary.

But now, the Embers have summoned the 'Gate', and He must speed up.

At least one more person must be freed from the Church of Night.

But this would undoubtedly be blocked by the Goddess of Night, so He needed the help of another true God.

As long as someone could stop the Evernight Goddess, all he would have to deal with was a Sequence 2 Servant of Secrets...

Adam retracted his gaze and looked to the right.

There, another female figure was unknowingly outlined in the darkness.

That is Irina, the Pope of the Church of Evernight.

Two Sequence 2 secret servants.
-
The outskirts of Backlund.

At the 'Gate of Flesh and Blood', layers of light balls that collapsed and condensed, seeking qualitative changes, seemed to form a figure constructed by layers of doors. This figure was robed in blood-colored tides, and its shape was constantly twisting and changing, reflecting different planets and different regions.

At this moment, a dazzling ray of sunlight broke through the night, fell from the starry sky, and melted everything it encountered on the way.

Beyond this ray of sunlight, an impenetrable darkness surged in, attempting to engulf Mr. Bert Abraham, the 'Gate' who was seeking advancement to Sequence 0.

The land where the altar was located shook violently and a huge crack appeared, which was about to cause the "Gate of Flesh and Blood" and Bethel Abraham to fall into the depths of the earth, facing the "Sea of ​​Chaos" that contained all colors and all possibilities.

Immediately afterwards, a hazy light emerged from the void and enveloped the forest, trying to restore the trees, soil, and altar to their most basic particle structure.

And in the only gap in the light, a pair of brass eyes appeared.

They stared at the 'Gate of Flesh and Blood' and Bethel Abraham, trying to reflect their appearance in their pupils.

Mr. Door let out a low roar, causing his blood-red robe to flutter.

This robe is connected to the evil tide surging behind the 'Gate of Flesh and Blood', spreading the crimson moonlight around.

As soon as it touched the moonlight, the impenetrable darkness gathered together on its own, stretched out its limbs and head, and turned into a shadowy female human.

It has its own life and consciousness and is no longer controlled by its user.

Without exception, the dazzling sunlight turned into a young man wearing flaming armor; the shaking earth grew eyes and closed its mouth; the terrifying facial features were highlighted on the barrier formed by the hazy light; and around the brass eyes, eyelashes emerged and turned into wings.

"Wow, all seven gods are here..."

Klein silently took a step back. It was obvious that Ember had not discussed the matter with the Seven Gods before summoning Mr. Door.

So when Mr. Door returned to reality, the Seven Gods took action without hesitation, trying to stop Mr. Door from coming.

This is not surprising.

Mr. Men, who returned from the Outer Space, was highly contaminated, and ordinary Beyonders would collapse even if they just took a look at him. If Klein did not have the dual protection of the First Flame and the Sefirah Castle, he would not be able to stand here, and would not be able to witness all this.

But even if he was able to avoid contamination, what was happening before his eyes still made his scalp tingle.

Fortunately, this may not be a bad thing - at least the conditions for his ritual have been met.
