Man in the Ark: Revitalizing Kazdel

Chapter 178 Sacrifice Ceremony

Fifty kilometers away from Londinium, a plain little hill was covered with golden fallen leaves. From time to time, dark feathered beasts would stop on the branches of the bare trees, crying with unpleasant voices.

In the shade of the hillside, there is a dark and deep cave leading deep underground. The interior is winding and there are Chimaera beasts roaming around that were bred by the Pardoner's experiments.

The Pardoner has been studying the hidden power in the blood of different races, and after mixing and blending them, he created Chimaera beasts with powerful vitality.

In the hands of the Pardoner, blood fusion experiments are no longer limited to biological experiments. Human experiments are the fastest way to get results.

Salus among the Pardoners was such a chimera, a fusion of the blood power of various Sarkaz royal courts, but unfortunately he had died at the hands of Roy.

This underground lair was secretly built when she was conducting research on blood fusion, relying on the Absolver's connections among the Victorian nobles.

In the underground lair of Londinium, after learning that the data transfer was completed, Quesatusta activated his backup plan.

The energy output of the super-large Originium engine in the core of the mobile city is directed underground to detonate, allowing Shining and the Demon King to see their own death with their own eyes, thereby getting rid of their entanglement.

After the destruction of his body, Quesatusta's soul quickly entered a temporary container that had been prepared by the Pardoner's guards, left the city overnight, and came to the underground lair that once belonged to Salus.

In his memory, he once cut off his body tissue for Salus to study. According to her, she created a backup body for Quesatusta based on this body tissue.

This just solves the problem that there are no suitable bodies available in Quesatus Tower.

After he entered this body, the absolution warlocks began to prepare for the sacrificial ceremony to purify and elevate the bloodline of this body with thin blood and many impurities.

Those members of the tribe with excellent bloodlines are willing to donate their blood and even their lives for their leader.

"This body is still too weak, but it can be used barely." Quesatusta controlled this strange body and pulled out the syringe that delivered the nutrient solution.

With the help of several absolution warlocks, he lay down on the altar in the center of the witchcraft circle.

The sacrificial ceremony officially began after the absolution warlock recited an ancient and mysterious spell.

A large amount of blood was poured onto the ground, spreading along the grooves of the witchcraft circles carved on the ground to the body of Quesatusta lying in the middle of the altar, gradually forming a thick blood cocoon, emitting a breathing bloody light.

The absolution warlock who presided over the ceremony had a fanatical look on his face, the spells he chanted became more and more frantic, and his eyes were fixed on the blood cocoon.

When the leader comes out, he will become strong again. Under the leadership of the leader, the Absolver will finally achieve his eternal goal.

The blood soon ran out, and the blood light gradually dimmed. Seeing this, a new group of pardoners took the initiative to stand up. They cut their wrists with swords and spilled the hot blood on the ground.

As the ceremony continued, a thin layer of blood mist filled the entire space.

It passes through the ventilation ducts and drifts to the outside.

More and more black-feathered beasts settled on the trees, their eyes glowed red and their cries became more violent.

......

On the endless desolate plain, an off-road vehicle was speeding in one direction at an unreasonable speed.

If you look closer, you can see that the off-road vehicle's wide wheels do not touch the ground at all.

The entire vehicle was flying at a low altitude, which made Viscount Kyle's men, who were following far behind, look bitter.

Even if they stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, they could only barely see the back of the SUV in front of them. The co-pilot had already taken out a high-powered telescope to track the direction of the target.

"What brand of car is this? I'll find out if I get a chance. I want to drive it and take a look. The performance is really damn good. It beats us."

The driver opened the car window, spat outside and complained.

"Stop complaining and drive carefully..." the co-pilot reminded, raising the telescope to continue observing.

"Hey, the target's speed has slowed down, you should slow down too and keep your distance." The co-pilot noticed that the SUV in front seemed to have slowed down, and quickly reminded the driver who was still stepping on the accelerator.

"Haha... I knew they wouldn't be able to drive like this for long. My car is indeed better..." The driver felt as if he had won the chase. He felt a lot happier and eased off the accelerator.

Roy activated the anti-gravity to fly the off-road vehicle at a low altitude. He sensed that Quesatushta's presence was nearby, so he slowed down and planned to slowly confirm the specific location.

"Liz, we're almost there, wake up." Roy patted Nightingale who was curled up in his arms and sleeping. She was always like this, she would start dozing off soon after getting in the car.

At first, she just leaned on Roy's shoulder and slept lightly, but later Roy was worried that she would catch a cold sleeping like this, so he took a blanket and covered her with it, and then held her in his arms, so that she could sleep well.

Hearing Roy's call, Nightingale slowly opened her blurry eyes and kissed him on the lips.

"Good morning, Roy." Nightingale was already half asleep and obviously had not fully woken up yet. She thought it was morning, so she gave him a good morning kiss as usual.

"Okay, Liz. Wake up, we're here." Roy reached out and pinched Nightingale's delicate cheek, picked her up and put her back on the seat beside him.

Shining, who had been resting with his eyes closed all the way, also opened his eyes, picked up his sword from the passenger seat and held it in his arms.

Roy parked the car where it was, carefully feeling the mark left on Quesatusta's soul, and finally locked the location on a small hill not far away.

Looking at the ominous blood mist rising from the top of the mountain and the black masses of crows, Roy became more certain that Quesatusta was hiding here.

Since Roy sensed that the location was deep underground, the three of them circled the hill, trying to find the entrance.

It didn't take long for them to find the entrance to the deep cave. The constant smell of blood coming from inside made Roy and Nightingale somewhat reluctant to enter.

Shining, on the other hand, looked calm. She had experienced far more bloody and terrifying situations before and was already used to it.

"If Liz doesn't want to go in, let Roy stay outside to protect you. Quesatusta is injured and is no match for me." As he said that, Shining cast a spell to illuminate the entrance and prepared to enter alone.

Nightingale quickly grabbed the hem of Shining's clothes and said, "I want to go with Shining too. If Shining is injured, I can help you heal."

"But..." Shining was a little embarrassed. She didn't want Liz to see her killing people. These people were her enemies and had committed unforgivable sins.

The Shining didn't want the pure and kind Liz to be polluted. It was enough for her to bear all the sins and murders alone.

"Why should we go in? I have a better way." Roy patted Shining's shoulder and motioned for him to come.

"What method?" Nightingale asked curiously with a puzzled look on his face.

"You'll know soon. Stand back. My spell has a large impact range." Roy asked Shining and Nightingale to retreat to the SUV. He clenched his right hand and a pitch-black staff appeared out of thin air.

"What is that Sakota doing? This is the first time I've seen Sakota using a staff..."

The team members sent by Viscount Kyle parked the car at the edge of the woods and observed Roy's every move through binoculars.

"Don't talk, he's going to cast a spell." Another team member saw the light on the top of Roy's staff and whispered a reminder.

"Earth! Obey my command and unfold." Roy plunged the staff heavily into the soil, and the entire ground began to shake violently.

Under the astonished gaze of the team members, the large area of ground where the target was located was like a blooming flower, unfolding its petals one by one.

The soil in the middle kept rolling in all directions, and even the hard rock layers were turned up and piled evenly in a circle.

The Absolution Master who was performing a sacrificial ceremony deep underground noticed that rocks were falling from the ceiling before he could figure out what was happening.

The Absolutioner sorcerer quickly arranged for people to deploy a spell shield to protect Quesatusta, which was in an important stage in the altar.

The sunlight pierced through the darkness, and Roy's earth and stone magic opened a skylight for the entire underground space, and a thick blood mist rose into the sky.

"Hey, Quisatusta, I found you." A healthy smile appeared on Roy's face.
