This puppeteer is not normal

Chapter 287 Hidden Ritual Pattern

Ri Lingmeng put down his sword and looked straight at Zhang Hukang and A Ming.Seeing it, Zhang Hukang felt very confused.

Why does this beautiful female doll look at him like this? Is it because he admires him for defeating an enemy alone?But compared with the record of this female doll, he is just a joke.

He was a little shy, and at first he said he wanted to protect his benefactor, but now he knows that his benefactor is not an ordinary young man!

This is probably a famous talent on the list of volunteer students outside.

Aaron reached out and put Rireimu's hood on her, then pressed down to cover her sight, and rubbed Rireimu's head vigorously through the hood.

Reimu put away the sword, grabbed the brim of the hat with both hands, and looked at Aaron with a little eyes.

Don't you want to see her play Blood Flower again?What should I do now that there are no enemies?Although she can play for free, but Blood Flower doesn't feel like it's fun enough without blood.

"You are very strong." Aaron said to Zhang Hukang, ignoring Ri Lingmeng's little thoughts.

This kind of creature has a strong body, the magic power on its claws has a high tearing ability, its combat IQ is not low, it has a certain amount of wisdom, and it has the ability to manipulate the surrounding fog, which is really tricky in this foggy environment.

Zhang Hukang's ability to skillfully cooperate with the dolls to kill one by the weak and the strong is commendable.

"The explorers and mercenaries in the horizon of chaos don't gain much experience, but they haven't done it for a long time." Zhang Hukang shook his head with a wry smile, and didn't think there was anything worthy of admiration.

After speaking, Zhang Hukang immediately took off the "belt" marked on his waist. It turned out to be a bag, and immediately began to put the dead creatures on the ground into it.

Most of the corpses of the two creatures killed by Ri Lingmeng were burnt, but Renren could eat them, and cutting them into pieces saved the need for subsequent decomposition.

Aaron didn't stop it. Although he could tell Zhang Hukang that he had enough supplies, it would be difficult for Zhang Hukang to not let him do what he was used to.

Zhang Hukang put away most of the pieces that Ri Lingmeng cut out, and the one he killed, because the bag couldn't fit, and dismemberment was difficult, although he said it was a pity, there was no other way.

"Benefactor, if you bring so much food at once, everyone will welcome you very much." Zhang Hukang's tone relaxed a lot.

Although adding another person will make everyone feel unhappy, but the newcomer is strong and brings so much food as soon as he comes up, everyone will definitely accept it after weighing the pros and cons.

Aaron shook his head and didn't say much.

He didn't plan to stay longer, and after seeing the refugees who were sent in, he would immediately take them out, anyway, it was just a matter of effort.

Today I just brought Ri Lingmeng to play, and his original intention remains the same.

"Take me to your stronghold." Aaron said.

"Okay." Zhang Hukang replied.

Afterwards, under the leadership of Zhang Hukang, they groped forward in the fog. On the way, they could see some abrupt broken stone pillars and many colored cloth strips marked on the road. Zhang Hukang said that these were all kinds of marks left by people.

It's not necessarily accurate, but if you follow along, you can always find the sacrificial ground as your stronghold if you spend some time.

Zhang Hukang confirmed the location based on these mixed marks, and finally brought Aaron to the sacrificial field stronghold he mentioned.

Under the mist, a large shadow appeared in front of him.

Just like the architectural style of the Misty City, it is similar but has some essential differences. It is more dignified and heavy, but it has also become dilapidated due to the erosion of time, but its integrity is much higher than most buildings in the Misty City.

In terms of form, it is a temple-like design.

Following Zhang Hukang's footsteps and stepping into it, Aaron looked at the traces of the building with great interest.

Ri Lingmeng lost interest after looking at it to confirm that it was not something in her memory. Although such a big thing was really bluffing at first glance, she had no interest in this kind of building.

"Won't those creatures come here?" Aaron asked while walking in.

"It is precisely because those creatures will not approach here that this place will become our stronghold." Zhang Hukang explained.

Hearing this, Aaron looked at the temple in front of him again, and confirmed that it was indeed just an ordinary building, without any special rituals or other powers blessed on it.

In other words, is it just a spontaneous behavior of those creatures not approaching here?
What does this temple symbolize?
With this conjecture, they walked into the shadow of the temple.

There was no light at the entrance, it was dark.

As soon as they stepped into it and walked for a while, a voice came from a shadowy corner: "Zhang Hukang? You still didn't die outside, and even brought another mouth."

Zhang Hukang looked over and said, "Chen Qing, I brought back food and killed it together with this young man."

A thin, sallow, middle-aged man staggered out of the shadows, followed by two dolls who were also tall and thick.

Chen Qing's eyes lit up when he heard the food, his eyes looked up and down Zhang Hukang like a hungry beast, and then locked on the big bag he was holding behind him.

This amount is not small.

Zhang Hukang was lucky this time.

A few thoughts quickly popped up in his mind, and then he set his sights on the young man beside Zhang Hukang.

He frowned at the first glance, and felt distrustful, because Aaron was too young, and he looked like a college student at the top, and the kind that was not in a high grade.

Then he saw a figure with a hood next to him, with a good figure, but a sense of danger made his heart tremble, and he didn't dare to think about it.

It's a doll, how can humans have such a strong momentum.

"Still a young man?" Chen Qing frowned.

"Don't look at him as young, he must be stronger than me and you. He killed everything in this bag. Hurry up and take it in and dispose of it for other hungry people." Zhang Hukang walked in with the bag.

Chen Qing hesitated when he heard the words, and walked in with Zhang Hukang without saying anything.

The temple stretched out, and finally a fire was seen in a huge hall.

Torches hung from all over the hall lit up the hall with flames.

Aaron went in and glanced casually, there were probably more than 20 people.

At this time, the solemn hall was filled with an atmosphere of despair. Almost everyone was in a state of distress, unkempt, and their eyes were numb and dull without hope.There is also a lingering smell of a mixture of various smells.

Most of the crowd are people in their 40s. These are explorers or mercenaries of the Chaos Vision. There are also some young people in their early twenties. This is also the youngest, and the tallest, Aaron saw a sign It shows a man who is about sixty years old and can be called an "old man".

Other than that, there are different dolls.

However, many puppets have entered a dormant state due to the poor condition of the puppet masters and insufficient supply of magic power.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, someone's eyes turned. When they saw Zhang Hukang, some were numb, some were disgusted or disgusted, and the eyes they looked at Aaron were even more direct and malicious.

Although under normal circumstances, the malice would be limited to the eyes, but in this extreme environment, Aaron has no doubt that a little stimulation will make them do crazy things.

"Zhang Hukang, is that for food?" At this moment, someone next to him asked.

Hearing the word "food", many eyes focused on Zhang Hukang.

Zhang Hukang didn't hide anything, and raised the bag in his hand: "This time the amount is a little more than before, and each person should share one piece..."

Halfway through his speech, a figure knocked him away.

Zhang Hukang was caught by A Ming, who looked angrily at the assailant, but Zhang Hukang shook his head and pressed down helplessly.

A person who could tell that he had a lot of fat on his body, but felt a lot more empty at this moment, tore the bag hard, obviously it was just a matter of untying the rope, but he seemed to have ignored this point.

stab.

A hole was torn open in the bag, and a bit of scorched bloody smell drifted away. The smell that would normally make one frown mixed with the stinking air in the hall was almost insane.

"food!"

"It's... food!"

"Food! Give me some! Please! Just a little!"

"Zhang Ge, don't try to take it all by yourself, bring it to me!"

There were noisy voices.

"Everyone, save a little..." Zhang Hukang shouted, and there were some people who appealed so rationally, but most of them ignored it.

"Forget it, I'm all crazy." Chen Qing picked up a bit of bloody meat on the ground and greedily stuffed it into his mouth.

But he was still restrained, and he didn't participate in the fight after eating this point, even if his two physically active dolls were not bad among these people.

Aaron originally wanted to take out nutritional potions to supplement these people, but their madness was too strong because of those stinky meat slices, and now he just yelled twice, and no one would listen at all.

Seeing this, Aaron was not very interested, and started to visit the hall with Ri Lingmeng.

What is the purpose of this temple sacrificial site built in the place where the giant beasts sleep?
Who is it for?
Is it the creatures outside?But those creatures would not approach this temple on their own according to Zhang Hukang.

At this time, they walked to a platform deep in the hall, which was quite spacious, and there were long and thin ravines on the platform, which seemed to outline some patterns.

"The original sacrificial ceremony? It's just a simple outline without other mysterious sustenance." Aaron looked at it and said.

"That, master..."

"If you have something to say, you can speak directly."

Hi Reimu nodded, but he would probably do it again next time.

"It's a blood ritual," she said.
