Blood poured into the pool along the lines on the floor, and the originally clear spring water had now become muddy and filthy, and the old bishop stood on the altar and watched expressionlessly as the believers dissected the corpses of those who hung on iron hooks like pork, and then let the internal organs and blood flow out together. The old bishop remembered that in the beginning, many of them could not even hold knives, but now, seeing them skillfully cut each other's necks and sliced open their bellies, it was as if a butcher who had been skilled for many years was slaughtering a pig.

What exactly should we do? Great gods?

The old bishop raised his head and looked at the sky, the original dazzling light of the sun was now left in his eyes only a dim halo, the sun was shining weakly on the ground, which seemed to have shown that even the gods could not be powerful, but this was not a divine punishment, only part of the choice. Even the gods can't escape the fate of becoming astral garbage, and when the last believer is far away from his god, what can the gods leave behind?

All things will eventually wither, but death will live forever.

Thinking of this, the old bishop clenched the emblem in his hand, narrowed his eyes, and began to mumble a prayer.

We will eventually die, but our blood and souls will be reborn in blood, and we will be guests of cold death, listed on the chair of corpses, listening to the wails of dying and tasting rotting flesh in our mouths, this is the fate that everyone must meet, and no one can escape the doom and nightmares in it.

"Your Excellency."

A voice emerged, and the old bishop opened his eyes and looked at the knight standing in front of him.

"The ceremony is ready."

"I see."

As he spoke. The old bishop nodded. Soon, though, he seemed to remember something. He asked.

"What happened outside before?"

"Not very clearly, my lord. But according to the sentry's report, it seems that someone broke the gate. ”

"I don't know if I'm alive or dead."

Hearing the report, a cold smile appeared on the old bishop's face.

"Let them toss around, no matter who comes, they will eventually become the prey of this place of flesh and blood. It just so happens that the great Mother Goddess of Death needs enough nutrition, and I was afraid that there would not be enough monsters outside, but now it seems that I don't have to worry too much about this problem. ”

"Your Excellency?"

"Leave them alone. Seal the inner city and prepare for the ceremony. ”

There is nothing in the outer town.

When Jenn returned to the square with the other two, the same news came from Nadia's side. To be honest, Kassandra's strange situation made everyone a little confused, even Jenn, although he was a demon, but there were many kinds of demons, there were many demon gods, and there were even more sects of cults. Many demon gods even "wear many hats" among cultists. The most famous of these is Sidwell, the goddess of lies, who appears on the surface as the god of lies, but she also doesn't mind appearing as a god who doesn't exist in the first place. So many times the so-called kobold gods, werewolf gods. Or the goblin gods or something are actually Sidwell's disguises, and sometimes even the cultists themselves don't know what they believe in, and the rituals of these cults are strange. Manifold.........

The strange scene in the outer city made everyone more and more confused, to be honest. The reason why they didn't immediately go to the inner city was to look for clues to determine who the other person was. Jenn is cautious in this regard. Although he was sure that the plague was the work of Nabelius, he was not sure that it was his own cutie who was inside. There is no such thing as brotherhood between demons, and if the boss of the cultist in it does not deal with Jenn, then his fate is not much different from those who rush into the paladin.

I have to admit that the failure of the demons on the ground is also related to the fact that they are always fighting with each other. The demons described in people's stories because they were wary of each other and finally failed in the end, sometimes it was not just groundless, in a place like the lower realm, trust is really a rare luxury.

It's just that before Jenn and the others were about to leave for the inner city, Calvin's three thugs brought them an unexpected discovery -- they found a torn, bloodstained robe fragment in a nearby shop, although they didn't know what it was, but judging from the pattern on it, it seemed to be a very valuable thing.

But when he saw the fragment, Jenn's face changed slightly, and he reached out to take the rag, frowning at the pattern sewn on it.

It looked like it was supposed to be part of the sleeve, which should have been cut by a sword from the neat incision on it, embroidered with golden lines, and embellished with two gems -- but only a hillbilly like Calvin would treat this thing as a diamond, in fact, Jenn could see at a glance that the embellished "gem" was just an ordinary polished agate stone, and anyone with a little spare money in the Crane Continent could afford to wear clothes of this level, so it was not a precious thing.

But it was not the "jewel" that caught Jenn's attention, of course, but the lace on the sleeves.

On the surface, this lace is ordinary, but if you look closely, you will find that no matter which direction you look at, the four straight lines are parallel and combined into a strange shape, of course, this pattern design is not uncommon on clothes, but for Jenn, this slightly obsessive-compulsive design......... It sounds familiar.

"Calvin."

Pinching the fragment of the garment, Jenn pondered for a moment before asking.

"You said before that when the plague broke out, the paladins once captured a group of people who called themselves the Death Esoteric Cult?"

"Yes, sir."

"Death Esoteric Sect?"

Nadia frowned at the name, this was the second time she had heard of the Esoteric Cult of Death. But Nadia searched in her memory, and she couldn't think of any cult with that name.

"Don't think about it. Cultists do not openly say what they believe in, and the names of these so-called cults are probably just what they came up with with a pat on their heads. Most of the names recorded in the church are useless, and if you don't have access to the core, you'll never know who your enemies really are. ”

Looking at Nadia's slightly puzzled eyes, Jenn shook his head, and then he looked at Calvin again.

"Do you know the tenets of those Death Esoteric cultists? When they're caught, they'll always shout something. ”

"This ......... This ..............."

Hearing this, Calvin couldn't help frowning, in fact, it is common for cultists to be caught and then shout curses or something, and most civilians dare not listen to it. Even if you hear it, you will forget it immediately, after all, this is not a good thing, and if you accidentally say it and be reported as a cultist, it will be a big problem. A helpless street thug like Calvin is naturally cautious and reluctant to cause more trouble in this regard. So even if he had heard it, he would probably have forgotten it by now. But now that Jenn asked, he could only meditate on the memories, but unfortunately, there were not many memories.

"This ......... Well......... It seems that something will eventually wither, but death will last forever......... I'm sorry. My lord, I just remember that it seemed to mean that. ”

"All things will wither away, but death will last forever."

The words from Jenn's mouth blew through the square like a cold wind, and even Nadia felt a chill run through her back. As if they were listening? The signal of an ancient will for millions of years. Hearing this, Calvin was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Yes. My lord, it seems that this is the sentence. ”

"How. Mr. Jenn, do you already know who the other party is? ”

"That's right."

Facing Nadia's inquiry. Jenn nodded, but his expression wasn't good at the moment.

"If I'm not mistaken, then we're facing the Order of the Mother of Chaos."

"Mother of Chaos?!"

Hearing the name, Nadia couldn't help but scream.

If the name of such a bad street as the Death Esoteric Cult did not have any impression on Nadia, then the Order of the Mother of Chaos was different, as a cult that had existed since ancient times, the Order of the Mother of Chaos could be regarded as one of the most nominal enemies in the Templar Order. They believe in Nicholas, the mother of chaos, and believe that everything in this world, including the gods, is born of Nicholas, so they will inevitably return to Nicholas's arms. They refer to Nicholas as the Mother of Death, the eternal Mother Goddess of Darkness. The Order of the Mother of Chaos has dedicated their lives to killing, and the most troublesome thing about these madmen is that they are full of patience, they never can't wait to jump out to incite riots or poison assassinations like other cults, on the contrary, the Order of the Mother of Chaos basically does not do anything on weekdays. They will only wait for the other party to decay themselves, and when the target has already decayed, the Order of the Mother of Chaos will consider this a "revelation of death" and stand up to completely overthrow and destroy the other party.

If you look at it this way, then the Order of the Mother of Chaos doesn't seem to be any different from the rebels and rebels that appear in the fallen countries, but the problem is that they have completely different motivations from those who have good intentions and want to live a good life again. They have no interest in re-establishing a new order, and only want to bury Yiqiē completely, and because of this, under the guidance of the Order of the Mother of Chaos, many times an uprising will eventually turn into a desperate and never-ending slaughter and killing. In fact, many countries in history that were once very large have ended up scattered and divided, including the shadow of the Church of the Mother of Chaos.

The Templar Order has not been without a blow to the Mother of Chaos, but the problem is that the Order is so hidden and patient that if there is no "portend" of death, then they can even wait until the end of the world without a move. And along with the omens, all kinds of bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods also appeared one after another, and it was even more difficult to tell which one was the Mother of Chaos Order, even if the Templar Order wanted to distinguish each other, after all, only in the final stage could it be known who was a member of the Mother of Chaos Order. But by that time, often the other party's purpose has been achieved.

As a godly knight, Nadia had certainly heard rumors about this order that had been hidden in the dark, but she didn't expect them to appear in Kassandra!

However, Jenn is not surprised by this, the teachings of the Order of the Mother of Chaos are extremely deceptive, and they are indeed "truth" in a certain sense, in fact, their penetration in the Klein Continent is much deeper than most people think, and the Templar Order is not without their people, and now it seems that these guys have mastered Kassandra, but ...............

Thinking of this, Jenn was suddenly startled, and at this time, he suddenly remembered a "bad habit" of the Order of the Mother of Chaos.

No wonder you can't see corpses in this hellish place!!

"I want to ......... We'd better stay away from here to be safe............"

"What?"

Hearing Jenn's words, Nadia was stunned for a moment.

"Leave? Mr. Jenn, how can we leave, now that Kassandra's situation is unknown, we must ............"

However, before Nadia could finish speaking, a change suddenly appeared.

In the blink of an eye, bright red covered the entire sky, and the air became fishy and viscous at this moment.

In the next moment, the city in front of me completely changed its original form. (To be continued......)
