Nearly a hundred people were gathered around a desolate hill covered in cracks. Some were standing, some were standing, and some were laughing. In the middle of them was a man in a silver-white uniform. r
If Angor were here, he would have noticed that the handsome man standing in the center of the crowd was none other than Dela, one of the ten core apprentices of Floating Mech City. Or rather, Dela, who was disguised by Carveline. r
"Deira, I'm sure you know what's going on." It was a dark-skinned, bald woman who was wearing heavy makeup and a purple robe that revealed her shoulders and thighs. "Tell me. What's the rule of this blood sacrifice? And where's the exit? " r
Deira didn't answer. Instead, he glared at her. r
"What do you mean? Do you think you can fight us all by yourself? " The bald woman touched the large earring hanging from her earlobe and gave Deira a sidelong glance. "If you insist on staying silent, we'll have to do it." r
"Do it yourself, Chocolate. Don't drag us into this." A plump woman with tanned skin who was standing behind the group yelled, "We're just here to chat with Mister Deira. We're not going to do anything." r
She tried to stand up for Deira in front of everyone, only to be exposed by someone behind her back. Chocolate narrowed her eyes and looked at the speaker. "Ah, it's you, Tana. I've been wondering why your drunkard teacher sent you to the purification garden. Isn't he worried that you'll get killed as soon as you enter? " r
"Or," Chocolate's eyes turned and looked at the young man standing beside Tana, "Did you find a new backer by relying on your legs that can't close?" r
Chocolate seemed to be hinting at something, and the surrounding apprentices all smiled tacitly. r
Tana's clothes were very revealing. She only put a triangular cloth on the top of her breasts. However, as long as one was not blind, one could see the small protruding points very clearly. Coupled with the fact that her stomach and thighs were exposed, she looked like a woman who had fallen into the dust of a prostitute. r
Many young and energetic male apprentices were mesmerized by Tana's outfit. Even the chubby boy beside Tana was looking at her with narrowed eyes. Blood was dripping from his nostrils. r
Therefore, everyone secretly agreed with Chocolate's sarcasm. r
Tana herself didn't care about the gossip. She was dressed like this because it was convenient for her to move around. Hermes, on the other hand, couldn't help himself. r
"Chocolate, you can't speak carelessly. If you don't take back what you just said, don't even think about leaving the purification garden. Isn't it nice to be buried here? " Hermes said coldly. He swung his flaming whip at the ground, and a deep fissure appeared in front of Chocolate's body. r
Chocolate regretted her words as soon as they left her mouth. Mocking Tana was one thing, but implicating Hermes wasn't worth it. Besides, she couldn't beat Hermes in a fight. r
Thinking of this, Chuli decided to give Hermes a way out. "Hermes, I'm not talking about …"
Before he could finish, a childish voice rang out from the crowd. "Whitey, back her!" r
Then, a White Sand Rhinoceros charged out, its sharp horns stirring up a cloud of dust. Its target was Chocolate. r
Chocolate, who had originally planned to lower her head, was alarmed by this sudden attack. Her eyes instantly darkened, and her original intention to keep the peace was also extinguished. She stepped continuously in the air, dodging the rhino's charge. Her mind space's cantrip model was set up, and she flicked her hands at the ground. Countless black flowers without leaves and roots grew in the direction of her mana, continuously growing out from the center. r
"Black Mandala, the Scent of Death." Someone recognized the flowers. It was a secret spell, similar to nightmare magic. It was almost impossible to learn it without an inheritance. r
"Oh no, Whitey, come back!" The childish voice rang out again, but it was too late. r
The white rhinoceros was surrounded by Black Mandala! r
Chocolate's expression was fierce. "You attacked me first. Don't blame me for not showing mercy!" r
Death. Withering. Countless Black Mandala petals floated in the air and surrounded the white rhinoceros. r
Just as the rhinoceros was about to fall into a trap, a cold wind blew and froze the petals. r
Everyone looked behind Chocolate, only to see Della, who was dressed in a silver uniform, raise his right hand. Frost Qi lingered on his slender fingertips. The white cloak on his back fluttered in the cold wind. r
The cold wind just now came from Della! r
Just as Chocolate was about to question Della, Della suddenly turned around and walked toward the lava area. r
"You're running?!" Chocolate leaped forward, trying to hit Della from behind. But before her magic could reach him, it was bounced back by a wave of extreme cold. r
Chocolate shuddered and staggered. r
She was an Elite Apprentice, but she was no match for Della. r
"Are you an idiot? Della's intentions are clear. He wants us to go with him." r
A childish voice entered Chocolate's ears. She looked up and saw a little boy riding on top of the white rhinoceros. The boy was looking at her with disdain. r
Hermes slapped the boy's forehead. "Loki, don't talk so much. And who told you to order Whitey to charge? Don't be so hot-blooded. You can't be reasonable. " r
With that, Hermes and Loki trailed behind Della, and the rest of the group followed suit. r
Just as they were about to enter the scorched earth, Della suddenly flew into the air and gave them a disdainful look. "If you don't dare, or if you're not strong enough, don't come." r
Della flew into the lava zone. The others looked at each other. Some of them were too weak to enter the lava zone, but most of the Elite Apprentices knew how to fly. Even if they didn't know how to cast spells, they had at least a means of transportation. r
More than half of the original hundred-man team had been left behind. In the end, only forty or fifty of them made it to the lava zone. r
Everyone followed Della into the depths of the lava zone. After more than half of them had been eliminated, the others were convinced that they were right. None of them said it aloud, but they all had the same thought:
Only elites like us have the strength to step into the Lava Area. Ordinary apprentices can be left to fend for themselves outside and become sacrifices for the Blood Sacrifice. * * * r
The white rhinoceros was also flying in the air. Before, Loki was the only one on its back, but now there was a fat boy in a chef's uniform. r
The fat boy held a bamboo skewer in his hand. On the skewer was a flying fish that the rhinoceros had just killed. There was a flame burning in his hand, and the Flying Fish began to turn yellow as it was being roasted. r
Then, a strange and mysterious power attached itself to the fish, and in an instant, a fragrant aroma exploded. r
"Wow, it smells so good! I can't help it! Give it to me, Alan. "Loki's hands were already open, and his face was filled with anticipation. r
"Just a moment. Alan's Exclusive Grilled Fish will be ready soon!" Alan grinned. r
The aroma filled the air. Hermes couldn't help but take a deep breath. "It smells so good. It smells amazing." r
"Alan's grilling skills are praised by even the Master. His grilled fish is even on the menu at the Butterfly Tavern," Tana said proudly to Hermes. r
The aroma of the grilled fish attracted most of the people's attention. Many of them hadn't eaten for a day. Now that they smelled grilled fish, especially grilled fish cooked by a gourmet apprentice, everyone couldn't help but gulp. Even Della, who was flying at the front of the team, glanced back at the fat boy. Then he lowered his head, as if thinking of something. r
"He looked at you just now." While eating, Loki pointed at Della and said to Alan, "Does Della want to eat too?" r
"Aren't you ashamed of calling everyone 'big brother'?" Hermes mocked her. r
Tana turned to Alan. "Why don't you grill a fish for Della? He saved Loki's life." r
Alan nodded. "Sure. But … why isn't he talking?" r
Tana hesitated for a moment. "Maybe he's cold?" r
In the end, Della didn't accept Alan's grilled fish. Instead, he gave Alan a secretive look. Still, he didn't say a word and continued to lead the way. r
By now, everyone was starting to realize that something wasn't right. Just as the Gourmet Apprentice said, Della didn't say a word at all. Was Della really going to lead them to the "exit"? r
Della didn't say a word. Everyone was guessing what he was doing. r
Could it be that they were wrong? Was Della trying to catch them all in one go? Were the ten core apprentices of Floating Mech City waiting for them? r
While everyone was speculating, they had already arrived at a huge lava lake with Della. r
What was waiting for them was a giant monster that was slowly poking its head out of the abyss. It was the Lord of Tentacles! r
That half of its head was already bigger than anyone could imagine. It was as big as a cloud whale! r
At the same time, countless red tentacles that were hundreds of meters long reached out of the abyss, bringing with them lava and white smoke. r
Everyone was shocked by this terrifying monster, and they were all dumbfounded. r
A voice came from afar. "They're here! I didn't lie to you, did I? We have reinforcements! I'll go take care of them. " r
The "reinforcements" looked at each other in confusion. r
"We've been tricked!" Someone shouted. "This Della wants to catch us all in one fell swoop!" r
Sinehowze walked over. "Who told you that? The exit is right under the abyss. Believe it or not!" r
"How is that possible? This monster looks like it's at least at the level of an Adept! " r
"It's not a wizard-level monster yet. It's still one step away. Moreover, it was precisely because it was very powerful that it was the best tool for killing people. Think about it. Who can reach this place? Who can kill it? Who can enter the abyss? " Sinehowze walked to the front of the group. "Get past these three obstacles and you'll be dead. That's the truth of the blood sacrifice." r
Everyone hesitated for a moment. The woman's words seemed to make some sense. r
"That's the truth. Don't you see them trying to kill that monster over there?" Sinehowze pointed at several people not far away, including Keely, Freud, Yethew, Shayaron, and an old man with a cane. However, Keely was still hovering in the air on her broom, while Freud and the others were busy casting spells on the monster. r
Other than the old man with the staff whom they did not recognize, the rest of the people were all famous figures. Not long ago, Keely showed up in the valley and provoked Jebra, the "Son of Sea", which left a deep impression on everyone. r
If even they were fighting the monster, could there really be an exit at the bottom of the abyss? r
With this thought in mind, everyone started to doubt their idea. r
"Let's go check it out." Hermes stepped forward. He wasn't sure if this was the truth, but he still wanted to check it out. r
While everyone was busy trying to figure out a way to stop the Lord of Tentacles, Carveline's voice reached Sinehowze's ears. "What's going on with them?" Carveline was referring to Freud and the others. When she left, Sinehowze was the only one in the lava lake. How come there were so many of them now? r
Sinehowze used Voice Transmission. "Those idiots came right after you left. They seem to know about the Lord of Tentacles and believe that there's an exit at the bottom of the abyss, so I talked to them. But that Keely girl is a bit strange. She's not interested in the abyss at all. She's been hovering in the air and using that black cat of hers to look for someone."
"Someone? Who? " r
"I don't know. She never spoke. She looked like she was going to kill anyone who tried to get close to her. I can't beat her, so I just let her be. "
