Todd, who was hiding in the corner of the hall, waited for all the gray-robed people to leave, then carefully poked his head out and took a look at the situation outside.

Before the chaos began, Tristan, who was hidden behind the screen by him, asked in a low voice: "How is it going outside?"

Todd shook his head at him: "You don't want to see this scene... The hall is full of dead people, there are a hundred people... No, maybe more, less than half of the people who survived."

Tristan sighed, lying on the ground, "Thank you for saving my life."

Todd patted his arm and gave him a smile.

Standing up, carefully avoiding the sight of the survivors from the edge of the wall, Todd came to the other end of the hall and found Dion hiding in the window sill.

Looking at the blood on the other's calf, Todd frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"

Dieng said depressedly: "When the enemy first started the attack, I was stabbed in the smoke by a nobleman who was panicking and wielding a sword indiscriminately."

Todd looked around and asked, "Where is Mary?"

Speaking of her, Dion was even more upset: "I was with her. When his father was taken away, she couldn't help but followed him secretly."

Todd scratched his head with a headache, and said to Dion: "You hide here and don't move, I will find someone to pick you up."

Dion grabbed Todd's sleeve: "Your Majesty, you can't take the risk alone!"

Todd smiled and pointed to the sky: "I'm not fighting alone, the reinforcements are above you and me."

An abandoned underground waterway in the Holy Acropolis.

The five gray-robed men carried the three of Leoric and his son, walked through the underground corridor comparable to the maze, and finally stepped into a room deep in the underground waterway.

Three wooden beds still with blood stains were quietly placed in the center of the room. Various experimental instruments, organ specimens, and herbal bottles were neatly stacked on shelves close to the wall.

A man in gray robes lighted the oil lamps around the room first, while others divided their work. Some were busy putting the three of Leoric and his son on the wooden bed, and some began to set up pots to boil water and prepare herbs.

When these things came to an end, the five gray-robed men took off their hoods one after another. Four of them looked at the leader and waited for his instructions.

"Seventeen, you go and take out the **** of death." The leader wearing an astrologer's gray robe and holding an oak staff, looked at the comatose father and son of the Holy Acropolis, and then said: "Twenty-one, you go to prepare Good surgical equipment; twenty-seven, use scissors to cut off the hair of these three people; thirty-three, go to the ferry of the underground river and get the boat ready."

After issuing these orders, the gray-robed leader found a chair, sat on it, folded his arms in front of his chest, and watched quietly as his subordinates were busy.

With the sound of the scissors, the father and son, who had been unconscious, gradually woke up.

Mattide and Sinclair discovered that they were strapped to a wooden bed and could smell heavy blood and rancid odors in their noses. Matide immediately frightened and called out for help. While twisting his body desperately, he kept saying begs for mercy.

Sinclair was struggling and found that he could not break free, but calmed down instead. He looked at the surrounding environment with a pale face, his eyes kept turning, and his mind kept thinking about ways to get out.

The leader of the gray robe saw the performance of these two people in his eyes, suddenly laughed, and said, "It's really interesting."

Leoric's faint voice came over: "Hyatt, how long will it take to complete the ceremony?"

The gray-robed leader known as Hyatt, looked at Leoric: "Soon."

"My lord, the hair and surgical equipment are all ready."

Listening to the report at hand, Hiatt, who was the fifth pick in the Legion of Strife, stood up, walked to Leoric’s bed, looked at the other party, and said, "The agreement between you and the mistress, I believe I don’t need to Remind you?"

Leoric nodded: "I swear by my soul to obey the mother's will."

Hyatt said coldly: "From today, you will be given a new life by the Mother God. Always remember that she can give you eternal life, and naturally can deprive you of your life at any time."

"My lord, Grim Reaper has brought it."

Hyatt looked at the iron box in No.17's hand and said softly: "Open it, and be careful not to move too much, otherwise all our efforts will be in vain."

Seventeen swallowed and placed the iron box gently on the small table next to the wooden bed, carefully removed several copper locks on the top of the iron box, and then slowly opened the lid of the iron box.

The biting white cold air overflowed from the iron box. Surrounded by the ice, a transparent, crystal-clear nematode occupies the center of the ice, motionless as if sleeping.

Under the horrified gaze of the father and son, Hyatt picked up a sharp drill and explained to them: "Wait a moment, I will use the drill to drill on the heads of the two recipients participating in the ceremony. Two small holes. Then, I will bring the sleeping **** of death close to the drilled wound. Feeling the warmth of the flesh and blood, the **** of death will slowly wake up, and drill the front and back heads into the holes on the top of the human head respectively, and enter Your brain..."

"I don't want it! I don't want it!" Matide, who was scared by these words, began to struggle frantically on the bed. The blue veins on his head were exposed, the corners of his mouth were drooling because of extreme fear, and the urine stains between his crotches slowly expanded because of incontinence.

After a while, Matide's movements suddenly stopped, and his whole body became stiff, completely limp on the bed.

On the 17th, he walked to Matide, opened his eyelids, felt his pulse, and then shook his head at Hyatt: "It's dead, it should be scared to death."

Hyatt sighed dubiously and said to Leoric: "Continue with what I just said, after the death enters the brains of the two, we will kill one of them. The death will draw out the soul of the living person and inject it into the dead body. In. Here, even if the ceremony ends smoothly, do you understand?"

Leoric turned his head and glanced at Mattide's body.

Hyatt saw his eyes ~lightnovelpub.net~ and explained: "In fact, as long as a person dies within 12 hours, the corpse can be used as the carrier of the soul..."

Having said that, he looked at Sinclair who was panicked: "Of course, it is better to live than a dead carrier."

Leoric turned his head and stared at Sinclair's face, with a look of resentment in his eyes, and his voice was inaudible: "Go ahead."

Hyatt made a gesture. On the 17th, he poured a pre-prepared potion into the mouths of Sinclair and Leoric.

Hyatt took the drill and walked to the top of the two of them. After waiting for the paralyzing ingredients in the medicine to start to work, he began to plan to drill.

At this moment, the 33rd who was going to the underground river ferry to prepare a ship, was suddenly thrown into the room by a huge force, knocking over the bottles and cans on the wooden frame, attracting everyone's astonishment.

Todd opened the door, patted the dust on his body, and smiled at everyone in the room, "Good day, everyone. Would you mind adding more people to your carnival party?"
