Deep in the oasis under the glass cover, under a small ancient tree, there is a temple built on the huge roots of the ancient tree.

The temple looks deep and simple, looking at it from a distance, it gives people a sense of heavy oppression, if ordinary people stand in front of the temple, I am afraid that they will not be able to withstand the breath of the temple at all, and they will kneel directly in front of the temple.

At this time, a fiery figure rushed directly to the temple, stumbled up the temple steps, and rushed into the temple with a frightened shout: "Oh no, no, high priest, high priest is not good, someone, someone broke into the oasis." ”

In the depths of the temple, a majestic aura soon erupted, and then a figure walked out slowly, looking at the white-robed priest who rushed into the temple and shouted.

The figure stretched out his hand, directly choked the throat of the white-robed priest, stared at the white-robed priest and said, "What's the big deal, you shouting like this, it will disturb the rest of the scarab." ”

The white-robed priest's expression gradually calmed down in horror, and he looked at the wrinkled and old face that was choking his throat, and hurriedly whispered: "High priest, those guys, those guys are very powerful, they killed many of us, and also, killed the scarab guards. ”

"What?" The high priest, who had always been calm, suddenly changed his expression, and his whole person burst out with a strange aura.

The main hall of the temple, which was dim in an instant, was illuminated by the lit braziers one by one in a blink of an eye, and the entire hall was suddenly brightly lit.

In front of the white-robed priest who had fled back to report the news, stood an old man in a scarlet robe, embroidered with a strange scarab motle, and holding a wooden scepter in his hand, and at the top of the scepter, there was also a scarab beetle.

The high priest dropped the white-robed priest and waved his hand into one of the braziers, throwing a handful of unknown powder, and in an instant the flames of the brazier rose. Scenes emerged from the flames.

After seeing the pictures that had happened, the high priest's expression became more solemn: "Hmm, I really didn't expect that kid to come back, and he also brought a helper, it seems that he is determined to inherit the King of Hearts here." ”

The white-robed priest cautiously followed behind the high priest and whispered to the high priest, "High priest, what should we do now?" ”

The High Priest pondered for a moment. Some embarrassed to himself: "These guys, it's not a good time, if we come a few days late, our final sacrifice can be completed, and then we can wake up the scarab, but unfortunately, the sacrifice is not completely completed now." ”

As soon as he heard the high priest say that he was about to be able to awaken the scarab, the white-robed priest was immediately excited. Flatteringly, he asked, "High Priest, can we ......?"

However, before the white-robed priest could finish speaking, the high priest suddenly stopped him: "No. Not yet, the scarab beetle is not fully mature, and the last wave of flesh sacrifices is needed, but the last batch of flesh and blood. It's not done yet. ”

The white-robed priest was immediately frightened, and quickly knelt down and said to the high priest: "It is the subordinates who are not doing their jobs well, and I hope that the high priest can give a few days of relief." ”

But the high priest shook his head: "No. There is no time left, even if I can give you time, but those people break in, they will not give you another chance, soon, all the villages in the oasis will know about the existence of those people, and those villagers will all gather around those people. ”

The white-robed priest was stunned when he heard this, and asked with some puzzlement: "High priest, why, why is this happening? Who are those people?"

The High Priest sighed and said, "They are the king-blood descendants of the King of Hearts, the soon-to-be King of Hearts, the rulers of the ancient empire beneath this desert. ”

The white-robed priest was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know what to say, however, at the moment when the white-robed priest was stunned.

The high priest suddenly shot at the white-robed priest, his palm turned into a sharp blade, and he rushed to the white-robed priest in an instant.

But this time, the high priest's attack was unsuccessful, and his thin palm was actually caught, and the white-robed priest disappeared in an instant.

The high priest was a little surprised, raised his head and looked not far away, and found that the white-robed priest appeared in front of the temple door.

The smiling high priest said, "Oh, yes, yes, you can escape from me." ”

The white-robed priest bowed to the high priest, still responding very respectfully: "These are all your teachings, high priest, but I didn't expect that one day I would use them on you." ”

The high priest said nonchalantly, "Very well, you have made progress, and it seems that it is not just a coincidence that you were able to escape." ”

The white-robed priest replied without humility or arrogance: "High priest, I have no intention of disobeying you, but I don't want to be the food for that scarab beetle, so I hope you can understand." ”

The high priest smiled with a smile on his face: "Hehe, I understand that no one wants to die, everyone will cherish their own lives, but many times, our lives do not allow us to be our own masters, and each of us has a time when we can't help ourselves." ”

When the white-robed priest saw the high priest approaching step by step, he could only retreat step by step, trying to keep his distance from the high priest.

He was really afraid of the other party, as the high priest of the temple, he was the longest-surviving person in this oasis, and his skills could be said to be very terrifying.

The white-robed priest knew very well that in the eyes of the high priest, he was just a babbling child, and although he had worked hard, there was still such a huge gap between him and the high priest, so he had to be careful not to be given a chance by the high priest.

Seeing the white-robed priest retreating step by step, always keeping a distance from himself, the high priest smiled and said, "Hehe, yes, it's really good, you actually kept a safe distance and knew my spell, and the distance you cast was limited." ”

The white-robed priest said very solemnly, "High priest, do you really want to put me to death?"

The high priest shook his head and sighed, "You should understand that it is our glory to sacrifice for the scarab beetle, as a white-robed priest here, do you still want to resist?"

The white-robed priest stared at the high priest's movements, and at the same time spoke: "High priest, you should know very well that that scarab beetle cannot bring us hope of life, it may ruin this place, it can only bring destruction, since that is the case, why do we have to sacrifice ourselves for it?"

As soon as the white-robed priest's words fell, the scarlet robe behind the high priest suddenly turned into a blood cloud, and directly covered the white-robed priest.

Seeing this, the white-robed priest turned around and ran, but at the moment he turned around, he saw a bloody mouth suddenly appear in front of him, and directly bit off his upper body.

Blood gushed out, and in a blink of an eye, the front of the temple was dyed red, but the blood quickly flowed all along the cracks in the masonry on the ground, all under the masonry, and there was not even a drop of blood left, and in a blink of an eye, the front of the temple returned to its original simplicity and cleanness.

The scarlet robe was withdrawn, and the high priest put his hands in the robe, stretched out his tongue and licked the corners of his mouth, and muttered: "Sure enough, it is still the flesh and blood of the priest, which is more pure than the energy contained in those ordinary people."
