I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

Although it is unclear what the demons' purpose in performing the blood sacrifice is, it is certainly detrimental to Sagunto.

"Lord Orn, leave the task of finding the location of the blood sacrifice ritual to me!"

Camilla stepped forward and said, "Those blood sacrifice ritual arrays have the function of isolating auras, but I can use other methods to find these blood sacrifice arrays."

"You only need to send a portion of your troops to clear out the area as soon as I locate the blood sacrifice ritual."

Camilla can also deal with demons who perform blood sacrifices.

But time is very precious now.

Camilla decided to explore the location of the blood sacrifice ritual first, leaving the rest to the dwarf soldiers, while she continued searching for the next location.

Owen glanced at Anno, as if asking if Camilla was up to the task.

Anno nodded to Owen.

As a priestess goddess, Camilla should have far more methods than they do.

"In that case, I'll leave it to you two."

Owen immediately ordered Mandel to lead a group of Tier 6 guards to follow Camilla and Anno.

"Please destroy the blood sacrifice ritual within the city as soon as possible!"

"Without further ado, let's go!"

After Camilla found some powerful thugs, she immediately led Anno, Mandel, and the others out.

......

Meanwhile, in a secluded room within the city, the blood sacrifice ritual had already begun.

In fact, the ceremony had been in preparation for several days.

When the Insect Demon discovered the seal on the Holy Mountain and threw the orb with the ability to locate it into the grass at the foot of the Holy Mountain, the demons who were preparing for the blood sacrifice ritual already knew the location of the seal—the dwarf traitor Temple also found out at that time.

Knowing the location of the seal, the demons guarding the blood sacrifice ritual immediately activated the ritual.

A hint of madness appeared in the eyes of the demons sitting in the middle of the magic circle.

Within the magic circle engulfed in blood-red light, a terrifying aura is taking shape.

"Welcome to our Lord's arrival!"

Boom!

During the blood sacrifice ritual, the room's door was violently destroyed.

Anno looked at the magic circle filled with a red aura, and his heart skipped a beat.

"What a terrifying aura!"

Even if Anno didn't understand, he now realized that if the ritual were completed, a terrifyingly powerful being would be teleported over.

"Kill them!"

At Anno's command, a group of sixth-tier summons behind him sent their shadows to lead the charge, rushing into the room where the blood sacrifice ritual was taking place.

There were only five sixth-tier demons in the room.

They were no match for so many summoned creatures.

One of the demons immediately realized it couldn't win and prepared to sacrifice itself to speed up the ritual.

However, Anno had already begun to sabotage the formation with Sasser.

During the process of destroying the formation, Anno discovered that the energy source for the formation consisted of extremely rare magic crystals.

There are also many precious materials with different functions, including materials that amplify magic power and stabilize space—these materials are also needed by the Divine Array, so Anno knows about them.

Most of the materials were ones that Anno had never even seen before.

However, the few varieties that Anno recognized were worth over ten million gold coins.

Unfortunately, after forcibly disrupting the blood sacrifice ritual, all these materials exploded and were destroyed due to the chaos of magic.

"What exactly is the purpose of this ritual, which involves such a huge expense?"

After Anno completely destroyed the blood sacrifice array, he took the sacrificial materials from the demon corpses and ran towards the location of the white angel floating in the night sky.

As planned, Camilla used [Angel Incarnation] to fly at low altitude and used detection magic to search the nearby area.

If you encounter a place that cannot be surveyed, it is basically where the demons are hiding.

However, about ten minutes after leaving the city lord's mansion, the group encountered their first undetectable location.

That is, the place that Anno just destroyed.

During the pursuit of Camilla, Anno also discovered a fourth-tier demon causing havoc in the city.

After dealing with the demons along the way and rescuing the dwarven civilians who were still in shock, Anno showed no joy whatsoever.

"The fourth-tier demons infiltrated the city, probably not to search for the seal."

If a demon of this strength were to search for the location of the seal within the city, the chances of being exposed would be very high, and the dwarves would easily discover it beforehand.

In this way, they only have one function.

That is, like now, they come out of their hiding place to attack civilians, create chaos, and buy time for the Blood Sacrifice Group.

Anno organized the current intelligence and divided the demons of Sagunto into three groups.

The search team's mission is to locate the seal of Sagunto; all members are level 35, sixth-tier peak demons.

They should be the most active group of monsters, since they need to search all over the city of Sagunto, so they must be strong to avoid being discovered.

The Blood Sacrifice Group is a group of demons lurking throughout the city, preparing a blood sacrifice ritual in order to summon some terrifying being. All members are sixth-order demons.

The Chaos Group's goal is to create chaos within the city after the seal is discovered, thus buying time for the Blood Sacrifice Group.

The fact that the dwarf traitor Temple has now been exposed indicates that the search team's mission is complete.

Then the remaining search party monsters will join the chaos group, causing destruction in the city and distracting the dwarf soldiers.

The sight of burning houses and cries for help from civilians throughout the city has confirmed Anno's suspicions.

But as Anno and Camilla's group continued to locate the blood sacrifice site, everyone's expressions grew increasingly grim.

"Anno, how many blood sacrifice rituals have we cleaned up?"

Mandel, who was following behind Camilla, asked with a gloomy face.

Anno immediately replied, "Eight in total!"

Mandel: "How much time has passed since we left the city lord's mansion?"

Anno: "About two and a half hours!"

Mandel: "Do you believe that blood sacrifice rituals still exist within the city?"

Anno glanced at Camille, who was still searching ahead, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Although we're moving quickly, we've only cleared about a third of the area around Sagunto City. There's definitely more to come!"

"That's what I think too. There must still be blood sacrifice rituals continuing in the city."

So here's the problem: a typical ceremony usually only lasts ten minutes, a few minutes, or even half a minute.

What kind of blood sacrifice ritual could last for two and a half hours without ending?

After Mandel raised the question, he and Anno exchanged a glance.

Anno saw a hint of fear in the eyes of the seventh-tier dwarf.

The ceremony, which has been going on for two and a half hours, has no end in sight. Once it is completed, the consequences are unimaginable.

Lord Owen had already arranged for the city's residents to take refuge an hour earlier.

Although Camilla is still investigating the blood sacrifice rituals within the city, the people of Sagunto are already prepared for battle.

Preparations for battle against the beings summoned by the blood sacrifice ritual.

"There's a problem with the third building in the second row from the bottom."

Camilla's voice suddenly came through.

"Leave it to me!"

Upon hearing this, Anno rushed over with Sasser.

Based on previous experience, the places Camille pointed out were generally locations for blood sacrifice rituals.

Therefore, after Anno arrived at the target area, he immediately had his summoned creatures violently break open the building's gate.

Sure enough, there was a blood sacrifice array inside.

However, just as Anno rushed in, the demon inside the magic circle gave Anno a strange smile.

"You are too late! Our lord Leopold is about to arrive!"
