Mystery: Undead don't die from passing fire

Chapter 197

Why ask lovers?
While feeling uncomfortable about the evil 'skinning' ritual, a question also deeply rooted in Audrey's heart.She subconsciously looked at the figure on the other side of the table, hoping to get an answer from Ember's mouth.

At this time, with the help of The Fool, the 'World' has taken on the appearance of the Bishop Miller he met.

Seeing the round bishop wearing a human skin robe, Ember pondered for a moment, then slowly said:

"The godskin apostles usually develop believers in remote mountain villages, and hold a grand ceremony every once in a while. During the ceremony, the selected 'dancing girls' will skin all the villagers, whether they are men or themselves. The peeled 'high-quality leather' will be used to offer sacrifices to the god skin apostle."

"The skinned men will be thrown into the fire, and the dancers will dance selflessly in the ceremony to please the apostle of the god's skin. And these skinned villagers will be endowed with some twisted but powerful power before they die."

"The bishop may have obtained similar powers through rituals, but as far as I know, the rituals of the godskin apostles do not include beheading and sacrifice of flesh and blood."

Fors panicked when she heard that, even if head beheading and flesh sacrifices were not counted, just skinning is already terrifying, right?

Even just listening to Ember's narration, she felt her scalp tingling. Why would there be such a cult organization with such cruel rituals?Isn't Bansi Island the territory of the Church of the Storm?How did they manage to let the cult grow and thrive in their territory, and even seduce a Church of the Storm's bishop to fall?
Audrey thought of a word for no reason:

Leather factory!
Those 'God Leather Apostles' used the villages they ruled as leather factories, and those ruled villagers were the raw materials for leather!
Just imagining the cruel methods of the sacrificial ceremony and the horror of those people being skinned, Audrey already felt extremely uncomfortable.Although she has come into contact with information from many extraordinary worlds, and has even personally experienced the 'Backlund Great Smog' incident that almost killed several 10 people.But this barbaric, backward and bloodthirsty sacrifice ceremony is still beyond her comprehension!
'The Hanged Man' Alger pondered for a moment, then frowned and analyzed:
"The ceremonies of skinning and sacrificing flesh and blood may be related to local customs. The aborigines of Bansi Island have a tradition of living sacrifices. They once believed in an evil spirit called the God of Weather. Of course, judging from the present, they may still be Belief in this evil spirit."

"I think so too. The bishop may believe in the evil spirits enshrined by two cults at the same time, and creatively combined the sacrificial rites of the two cults."

Of course, even in this case, he still has enough 'quality' to attract those Extraordinary of low and mid-sequence.And it is precisely because the other party is Medici himself that he is so familiar with those secrets related to Medici and Redemption Rose!
In order to conceal the shock in his heart and resolve his doubts, Klein manipulated the 'world' and asked hoarsely:
"Mr. Lover, are you saying that the evil spirit in the underground ruins is the Medici himself?"

For example, Alger also knew Bishop Miller, who was three meters tall and dressed in a human-skin robe in the picture that appeared in the 'world'.But he never found Bishop Miller showing signs of betraying the church and joining a cult.

"And their souls remained in the underground ruins and became evil spirits. There should have been three evil spirits at the earliest. But they may have experienced fighting each other, and in the end only Medici's evil spirit survived."

Mister Fool!Things in Bansi Port are not as simple as they appear! 'Justice' Audrey immediately looked at Mister Fool who was sitting on the high-backed chair.

"It reminds me of a king of angels."

It's obviously just a conjecture, but the more Klein thinks about it, the more likely it is!
The Battle of the Four Emperors has left a strong mark in history, and if the blood emperor is a true god, will the other three emperors be true gods as well?

"Overseas, in the Southern Continent, there are many similar evil spirits. They seem to have been eliminated on the surface, but in fact they are still alive in a strange state. Many people died suddenly in those places. Hehe, it is not necessarily because of diseases. If you If you have similar travel or adventure plans, don't be careless."

Bancy Island is the hermitage of the descendants of the Medici family, but the people here believe in a 'God of the Weather'. It is hard not to associate the two together.It's not just Fors, most members of the Tarot Society have this guess.

"That's the old name of Bancy." 'The Hanged Man' Alger clasped his hands and replied in a low voice.

Forsi asked with some hesitation:

Klein the Fool saw that he had successfully aroused the interest of others, and whispered to himself in his heart.

Ember pondered for a moment, then shook her head lightly and said:
"It's unlikely. Medici died a long time ago. Even if he has survived in the form of an evil spirit until now, he has only just escaped from trouble. It is impossible for him to have anything to do with the weather god that existed hundreds of years ago."

The other party has become a god, but in the end it ended in falling!
If it really involves the fall of gods, it must have left a strong mark in history!

No, not right!

'The Hanged Man' paused for a moment, and said in doubt:
"It's just that I've never heard of the organization of the Godskin Messenger..."

Besides the True God, isn't the existence with the greatest 'mass' in this world the Sequence 1?
And as a Sequence 1 king of angels, it is also very reasonable to be able to attract a red priest card!And those Extraordinary people who died in the underground ruins were undoubtedly attracted by this aggregation effect...

'The Hanged Man' Argel frowned, completely unable to understand what happened on Bancy Island.As a pirate captain, he also frequented Bancy Island from time to time—real patronage, not looting.He's mostly there to fill in, but as an 'official pirate' he also occasionally liaises with the church on the island.

This laughter came from the top of the mottled long table!

Why would such a person suddenly join a cult?
And, why Bansy Harbor?Bansi Port has not had any problems for hundreds of years, why are there traces of those cults at this time?What is the connection behind this?
Alger tried to describe the incident at Bancy Port as an accident that happened by chance and within the scope of understanding.

According to the records in Emperor Roselle's diary, he learned some details of the Battle of the Four Emperors from Mister 'Gate':

There was a sudden uproar in Klein's heart, and he almost immediately affirmed Ember's statement as he searched for the answer:
That evil spirit died thousands of years ago, and was trapped in the underground ruins for thousands of years and could not get out.

Mr. Azik's reply also has a similar record:
"I looked up at them and was glanced at by the blood emperor, so I lost consciousness.

"No, it's not the same. At least the two gods I believe in are not evil gods, unlike the fallen person who believes in two evil spirits and holds cruel sacrifice ceremonies!" Audrey comforted herself from the bottom of her heart.

And the ruler of the Tudor Dynasty is the 'Blood Emperor'!
"Could it be that the blood emperor designed to kill the three Extraordinary of the Red Priest Pathway Sequence 1, and then took the potion made by their Sequence 1 Extraordinary characteristics, and became a true god of Sequence 0?"

Klein immediately remembered the conditions and requirements of the evil spirit, and reason told him that Ember's guess was very likely to be the truth!But this kind of truth not only failed to solve his confusion, but made him feel even more incredible.

"Binsey?"

"For example, the four emperors are the real black emperor who returned from the resurrection of the Solomon Empire, the half-mad Blood Emperor of the Tudor Dynasty, the Night Emperor of the Trunsost Empire, and the Hades Emperor of the Southern Continent, also known as the God of Death."

"almost."

"Is Medici dead? And turned into an evil spirit? In other words, the evil spirit I met in the underground ruins is Medici?!"

Suddenly, he heard a slightly low-pitched laughter.

The expressions of Audrey and the others became a little subtle, and they believed in two different existences at the same time.

Even if Mr. Azik suffers severe injuries, he can still make Ince Zangwill, who has been promoted to Sequence 4 and holds '0-08', helpless. He was probably a Sequence 2 angel!
The only one who can cause an angel to be severely injured at a glance can only be the true god!
The blood emperor is a true god, and the other three in the Battle of the Four Emperors can be compared with him, so it is impossible not to be a true god!

The Tarot Society suddenly fell into silence, and everyone's faces were stunned.

This seems to be very appropriate to describe them, after all, they each have their own gods they believe in.

"For another example, in the Battle of the Four Emperors, the Black Emperor, the Blood Emperor and the Night Emperor fell one after another, and the Underworld Emperor took the greatest benefit."

"I should have participated in the Battle of the Four Emperors to some extent, but the specific details need to be recalled, perhaps it is the trauma of that encounter,
Let me lose my memory again and again, keep dying, and keep waking up. "

Audrey and Xio believed in the Goddess of the Night, while the 'Hanged Man' was a believer in the Lord of Storms, Emlyn believed in 'Lilith', the ancestor of blood races, Forsi was a believer in the Lord of Steam, and even the little 'Sun' The same belief in the 'creator'.In a sense, they all fit the description of 'believing in two different beings at the same time'...

Now that Medici is dead, the existence that killed Medici must have taken away his Sequence 1 Extraordinary Characteristics.In other words, the current Medici only has a Sequence 2 character at most.

A king of angels, a king of angels above Sequence 1, just died like this?
The others almost subconsciously looked at the head seat, trying to see Mr. Fool's reaction.However, what they don't know is that Mister Fool is even more shocked than they are now!

Ember said calmly:
"It's just speculation, but it's very likely."

Mister Fool...'The Hanged Man' suddenly turned his head.

And why would anyone do it?Isn't this the effect of the Law of Extraordinary Characteristics Aggregation?
The greater the 'mass', the stronger the suction!

As a student of the history department, Klein immediately began to search for the information in his mind, and found the correspondence almost instantly——

The underground ruins have the emblem of the Tudor Dynasty, which proves that they belong to the Tudor Dynasty.

"died?"

"The Medici who founded the Redemption Rose, his descendants live in Binxi."

Unless the other party's ritual of becoming a god was destroyed by someone, or someone killed him when he took the potion, and Klein thinks the possibility is the least likely but has been lingering in his mind:

He is not going to continue talking, one point is that it is more in line with Mr. Fool's personality.The second is that he didn't know more information at first, and it would be wrong to say too much, so it's better not to say it.Although Klein hated riddlers like Emperor Roselle extremely, he didn't mind being a riddler once in a while. This feeling was actually quite good.

'World' smiled and said:

"So the blood of the descendants of these three families is needed to unseal the seal that holds the evil spirits in the underground ruins?"

"In that case, the weather god is probably Medici?"

Tudor Dynasty!

Seeing a series of puzzled, curious, or excited gazes, Klein smiled leisurely, with a tone of reminiscence:

But he has a card of blasphemy made by Emperor Roselle more than 100 years ago. Excluding the possibility that the evil spirits went out to retrieve this card of blasphemy, there is only one answer:
Someone brought this card of blasphemy to that underground ruins!

It's not even an exaggeration to say that Argel felt that Bishop Miller's belief in the Lord of Storms was much stronger than his own.

"Someone should have held a god-making ceremony in that underground ruins, and this god-making ceremony requires three copies of the Extraordinary characteristics of Sequence 1. Therefore, including the ancestors of the Medici, the Sauron family, and the Einhorn family, all became The victims of this ritual. Their Sequence 1 Extraordinary characteristics were concocted into potions, which were consumed by the users during the godhood ceremony."

If someone really killed Medici and the other two angels in Sequence 1 of the 'Red Priest' path, who did it?If the other party really took the potion and successfully completed the ceremony, then the other party should have become a Sequence 0 'Red Priest' and a 'True God'!
If so, why are there seven gods and not eight gods today?

Redemption Rose!A king of angels related to the real creator?Audrey didn't expect the situation to become more and more serious, and she subconsciously wondered:

The Underworld Emperor, also known as the God of Death, has a high probability of being a true God of Sequence 0.The Black Emperor itself corresponds to Sequence 0 of the 'Dark Emperor' pathway, and he is also a true god, which makes perfect sense.

And the remaining Ye Huang is not a true god, so how could he get the full support of the blood clan in the battle of the four emperors?
You must know that the blood race is a group of arrogant guys. After all, their ancestor was 'Lilith', one of the eight ancient gods, and only the true god can make them bow their heads willingly!
In the notes of the Abraham family, some details are also recorded in detail:
That is, the true god once personally participated in this battle of the four gods!
And if the Battle of the Four Emperors is a battle of true gods, then it is completely on the right track!
Only the battle between true gods can let the true gods end in person!
Moreover, many details can be ascertained from Mr. Azik's reply——

For example, 'the real black emperor who has returned from resurrection', or 'the half-mad blood emperor'.

Mr. Azik is not the kind of person who uses words imprecisely. Even if his memory is incomplete today, he will not make mistakes in expressing similar things.

The phrase 'resurrected and returned true Dark Emperor' already explains everything, this is a true Black Emperor, the true God of Sequence 0!But why did Mr. Azik describe the Blood Emperor as "nearly irrational, on the verge of losing control"?
