After all, although the Sheep Head Cult claimed to be the followers of Akentu, everyone knew that the demons were suppressed to the scorching hell and could not return to the Main Material Plane. They were actually the losers of the war.
The master of the Sheep Head Cult — the King of Purgatory, Akentu, and several other demon lords were sealed, and their whereabouts were unknown. Their followers could not find them even after thousands of years. Ever since the battle of the Azure Sky, the power of Order had become so powerful that the believers of Dusk had almost become the lackeys that everyone wanted to beat. These people who lived at the bottom of society and were even like rats crossing the street. When did they think that one day, they would be able to turn things around?
It was because of this that this victory and the upcoming ceremony were so significant to them.
Sure enough, Brando's face quickly showed a look of 'ecstasy'. He tried to raise his voice as high as possible so that only a few people around him could hear, and shouted in a low voice, "It's true, the undead have moved north. When? Where did the rumor come from? "
He thought in his heart. The undead had only moved north in the past one or two days. How did it reach Tao Qike so quickly? Could it be that someone was using magic crystals to send messages? Doesn't this mean that there are still spies of the Sheep Head Cult around Queen Madara? When did the Sheep Head Cult become so meticulous? Could it be that they changed their name to All For One?
The conversation between Brando and the Sheep Head Cult member obviously fell into the ears of others, but this question and answer was being played out everywhere in Hardland, and it did not attract the slightest attention. The Sheep Head Cult members around them did not even have the mood to look back at the two of them.
Brando's appropriate 'ecstasy' was so normal in the eyes of the Sheep Head Cult member that he struck up a conversation with, and it even gave him a sense of familiarity. But next to the two of them, Huang Huo, who had heard the whole conversation without missing a word, shook her head vigorously. She wanted to laugh but did not dare to laugh out loud, so her little shoulders were trembling.
Teacher's acting is too exaggerated … The little princess of the Jade Phoenix lineage thought in her heart, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
The sheep head believer replied without any doubt, "Just two days ago, we already gave up on the Undead Capital. However, this is not a rumor, but Lord Akentu's teachings."
"Lord Akentu." Brando 'sucked in a breath of cold air' and asked, "Did anything happen in the Holy Land again?"
After asking this question, his expression immediately became cautious. The hand hidden under the robe also faintly made a sword-holding posture, as if he was ready to make a move if something went wrong.
In fact, this question was what he was most concerned about. The Sheephead believers were discussing the changes in the Holy Land of Atuk with great interest, and they were connecting those changes with the upcoming living sacrifice ceremony. The advance of Hadran's Living Sacrifice Ceremony was clearly related to the changes in the Holy Land.
Originally, no matter how abnormal Akentu's seal was, it had little to do with Brando, but the secret of the Mystery of Emerald might be buried in the Green Sea, which made him have to be careful and pay attention to all the news related to it.
But he didn't know much about the Holy Land itself. The only information he had came from Maltaha's inquiry. After listening to the conversation of the Sheephead believers, he understood that the information he bought was' worthless', and he knew nothing about the core secrets of the Holy Land of Atuk.
Because of this, he had to carefully find an entry point to avoid being too ignorant in the conversation and attracting the attention of others.
However, no matter how good the preparation work was, he couldn't help but feel nervous when he asked this question, so he was ready to be exposed at any time. But the Sheephead believer didn't seem to notice the difference at all. He just nodded and replied,
"Yes, you guessed right. With the rise of the magic tide, the seal of the Holy Land of Atuk has become weaker and weaker. Lord Akentu may break out of the seal at any time. Maybe when our Living Sacrifice Ceremony is over, Lord Akentu will be resurrected."
Brando frowned. This was not the news he wanted. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "What's going on with the Holy Land of Atuk? Is it really the place where Lord Akentu was sealed?"
"Of course, otherwise, why would we come to this place?" The Sheephead believer said proudly, "I'll tell you a secret. In fact, the seal of the Holy Land of Atuk had already cracked as early as the first magic tide. Lord Akentu's will can already penetrate the Holy Land. He also left a clone in Hadran. That's why we know the news of the defeat of the undead."
Brando thought to himself that the undead were defeated. It seemed that the King of Purgatory, Akentu, was also a bullshitter. But this guy in front of him inadvertently revealed a shocking news. The Holy Land of Atuk was really the place where the King of Purgatory, Akentu, was sealed, and the great demon had actually awakened in advance.
He wanted to ask some more information about the Holy Land of Atuk, but it seemed that this guy knew very little about it. He only knew that the Holy Land of Atuk was above the inner sea of the Dead Moon, but he didn't know the specific sea area. He only knew that there was an archipelago there, and the Sheephead believer had a stronghold and station on it.
However, this information was enough. A lot of things could be obtained from the information provided by the Maltaha Inn owner. Brando had also heard about the archipelago. It was even marked on the map given to him by the Queen of Madara. It was called the Sea Serpent Archipelago. It was more than 300 nautical miles away from Hadran in a straight line. It was not too far, but it was not on the main sea route. It lacked natural resources, and it was also popular with the legend of ghost ships, so it had always been a very remote place.
Now that Brando had obtained the specific location of the Green Sea, he was no longer in a hurry. Instead, he waited silently for the ceremony to begin. Anyway, Fang Qi might have been exposed, so he no longer worried about the problem later. It was better to calm down and analyze the information he had obtained before.
After a while, another high-ranking priest came to preside over the next ceremony, and this high-ranking priest was obviously a different person. Brando could see from the other party's attire that the high-ranking priest of the Sheephead believer had a stripe missing on his robe. It seemed that he was one level lower than the priest who spilled the sheep's blood. The other party had already discovered Fang Qi's identity and secretly called for someone.
Thinking about this, he was even less flustered. After all, he had previously concealed his identity to inquire about information. However, since he couldn't hide it, there was nothing to say. In terms of strength, the Sheephead believer of Hadran was nothing in his eyes, even if there was a greater demon avatar in the city lord's mansion.
Legend had it that before Akentu was sealed, his strength was still a step away from being a demigod. That was to say, his body might only be at the peak of the Sage realm. Then, his avatar would be even worse. It might not even be at the level of a Sage. At present, with Brando's realm, anyone below the Sage realm could be killed with one strike of his sword.
The Sheep Head Disciples were obviously not ready for the time being, and they did not move for the time being. The replacement high-ranking priest presided over the ceremony on the altar, but his eyes kept glancing in Fang Qi's direction, which made Brendel feel a little funny.
What made him even more speechless was that Fang Qi didn't even realize that he had been exposed. This guy even felt good about himself and pulled his robe with a disgusted look.
The genius of the Phantom Chariot obviously didn't expect that the little trick he thought the other party didn't notice was actually noticed by a third party besides the Sheephead believers and Brando.
The third party was naturally Lotus and Lute, who had sneaked into the secret meeting place. At this moment, the little girl was standing in the most inconspicuous corner of the hall with Mr. Fairy. She carefully held her breath, for fear of attracting the attention of others. Since the first moment she entered the hall, most of her attention fell on Brando and the others. The reason was naturally because she was worried that her 'disguise' had been seen through. In her heart, she had long believed that Brando was the legendary Demon Judge.
But what surprised her was that the Demon Judge didn't seem to intend to trouble her. After entering the hall, he didn't even show any intention of looking for someone. She felt strange, and then she saw Fang Qi's little trick to avoid the Sheephead believers' high-ranking priest's blood flashing ceremony.
Lotus was taken aback by this small action. She had a deep understanding of the Sheep Head Cult. To be exact, she had a deep understanding of most of the organizations in the world, whether they were secret or public. She knew very well what this ceremony meant to the Sheep Head Cult. When Fang Qi's small action fell into her eyes, she understood that other than herself, there were others who had sneaked into the Holy Temple.
She rolled her eyes and remembered this detail in her heart, but she did not show it on her face. On the other hand, Mr. Little Fairy kept nagging at her to quickly find out more information, but Lotus chose to turn a deaf ear to him. She was very smart. She knew when to speak at this sensitive time was the best choice. If she rashly listened to the unreliable Mr. Fairy's opinion, she was afraid that the two of them would soon become prisoners.
However, because Fang Qi had been deliberately standing far away from Brando and the others, Lotus didn't connect the two sides together for a while.
The high-ranking cleric on the altar was already halfway through the ritual. He suddenly stood up and recited an obscure incantation in a deep voice. However, Brando and Lotus understood that it was not a spell at all, but the evil words of the devil. It meant to offer the soul to Akentu, the Lord of Purgatory, in exchange for the will from the abyss to come to the world.
After this incantation, theoretically, Akentu's will would descend upon this secret meeting place. Of course, it would not be Akentu's own will. Not to mention that this Lord of Purgatory was currently in a sealed state, even if he was in his prime, he would not be able to respond to the summons of every believer in this world.
That was an ability that only demigods and gods had.
However, the will that was summoned was the projection of the power of Chaos. It represented that the power of the Lord of Purgatory would descend upon everyone present. It would also give the Sheep Head Disciple a filthy blessing and punish those who made the Demon King unhappy.
Brando held his breath, and Lotus looked in the direction of Fang Qi.
But the next moment, the hall was as silent as before, and nothing happened for a while. Brando was stunned, thinking that this was a deliberate arrangement by the Sheephead believers, but when he looked up, he found that the high-ranking priest standing on the altar was also stunned.
The hall was quiet for a moment, and then the Sheephead believers present reacted. It was not the first time they had participated in a secret meeting. Of course, they could feel that Lord Akentu's will had not come.
Everyone raised their heads and looked around in shock, as if trying to figure out what had happened.
"What's the matter?"
"Is Lord Akentu angry?"
"Someone ruined the ceremony?"
Someone in the hall immediately questioned, and the scene was a little out of control for a while. The high-ranking priest on the altar jumped down and walked in the direction of Fang Qi. Brando saw the other party's action, and with a move of his hand, he had already grasped the hilt of Oderfeiss.
But just as he was about to start, he heard a rush of footsteps coming from behind, and then someone outside the hall reprimanded:
"All the believers of the master, be quiet!"
The Sheephead believers in the hall were startled and subconsciously quieted down. Brendel turned around and saw an important figure wearing a black robe that was obviously different from the ordinary members of the church. He was escorted into the hall by a group of people. Once he entered the hall, he looked around at everyone and said:
"Believers of the master, pick up your weapons, your master needs you!"
