How can you become a devil if you don't work?

Chapter 145 The meeting of the millennium! (seeking subscription)

On the street covered by weeds, a crisp bell ringing suddenly came, breaking the silence of the place.

Accompanied by the sound of slightly messy footsteps, a team slowly walked forward.

Leading the way was a handsome young man with a sacrificial spirit in his hand.

Followed by a woman holding a copper stove whose face cannot be seen clearly.

Then came twelve warriors in uniform sacrificial attire.

Finally, he followed a middle-aged man in a pure white sacrificial robe holding a wooden box.

After that, there is a mess of pedestrians.

There is no doubt that this is the queue formed by Su Mo and his party.

At this moment, they were walking on the way of the Chen family to the shrine.

Before that, many people had some doubts about the engraving ceremony.

After all, this approach is only a possibility, and it is hard to say whether it will work.

But when they teamed up and walked on the road leading to the shrine, everyone felt an inexplicable atmosphere.

The closer you are to the shrine, the deeper and dignified the atmosphere will be.

In a trance, it seems that the surrounding environment has undergone unknown changes.

Barrenness becomes tidy, desolation becomes lively, dilapidation becomes complete.

One after another, mirage-like pictures overlapped with the surroundings.

It's like a TV with an intermittent signal.

There are constantly flashing pictures around.

Through that picture, one can even vaguely see the grand occasion when the festival was held.

The grand scene of the sea of ​​people was almost suffocating.

For a time it was difficult to distinguish between reality and fantasy.

"Clap!"

"Clap!"

Hearing the faint footsteps behind him.

Zhuo Ningning, who was in charge of playing the role of the villager, only felt a chill in his heart.

She was at the end of the team.

It stands to reason that there shouldn't be someone right behind him.

In her perception, there was no one behind her.

But the sound of footsteps, like a magic sound, kept getting into her ears.

It made her scalp tingle uncontrollably.

The muscles on Zhuo Ningning's face twitched slightly, and he didn't dare to look back.

But when her eyes fell on the ground, she saw a few more shadows on the ground.

Those shadows were distorted, indistinguishable, terrifying and ferocious, attached to her shadow.

It seems as if it will rush forward in the next second.

She could even feel the bone-chilling coldness faintly coming from behind her.

Just when Zhuo Ningning couldn't help but wanted to scream.

Xue Lansu, who was walking aside, grabbed her wrist, and said softly:
"Be still."

These words seem to be full of special power to comfort people's hearts.

Zhuo Ningning's frantic mind was slightly affirmed.

She gritted her teeth and continued to walk forward, ignoring the changes behind her.

Xue Lansu's expression was calm, and he seemed to be indifferent to what was behind him, but he secretly used secret techniques to monitor the situation behind him secretly.

She could clearly see that there was a large group of dilapidated corpses and even strange spirits who had lost their sanity.

These strange expressions were confused, like the injured who had just suffered from a car accident and lost their memory. They seemed to be in a daze, and they only knew that they followed a certain instinct and followed the team.

From time to time, other corpses or monsters would creep out from the roadside houses, underground dry wells, or dilapidated ruins, and would continue to join the team, gradually expanding the team.

They did not attack the people walking in front, and there was an unprecedented tacit understanding between humans and ghosts, maintaining an extremely delicate balance.

Xue Lansu was keenly aware that what caused this situation had a lot to do with the ceremony they were reenacting now.

Therefore, we must continue to maintain the current situation, so that the team can continue to move forward steadily.

Once there is any change in the marching team, it is likely to destroy the weird state of the group behind, restore their hunting instincts, and plunge everyone on the field into an unprecedented crisis.

That's why Xue Lansu carefully used a strange thing to stabilize Zhuo Ningning's mind.

Then, as time went by, more and more weirdos followed behind him.

The silent procession spread across the long street, moving forward silently.

The invisible coercion continued to increase, shocking the soul.

At this time, let alone the fledgling Zhuo Ningning.

Even veterans like Shi Hao and Sun Hong almost couldn't hold back and almost caused problems.

Fortunately, with Xue Lansu sitting in the rear, all the problems were dealt with decisively and sharply by her.

A little further ahead are Chen Shuo, Yao Wenkai and others.

In front of them was Song Ruyuan who played the role of the high priest.

This position seems to have no problem, but it actually bears a lot of pressure.

The 12-person talisman is not a real person, but just a puppet manipulated by others.

They don't have their own consciousness, as long as the leader of the team doesn't make mistakes, they will keep walking.

As the sharp knife of the team, Su Mo naturally wouldn't make mistakes easily.

So much so that all the 12 characters followed closely behind him, never missing a step.

But when it came to Song Ruyuan's side, something was not working.

Whether it was Song Ruyuan or Yao Wenkai and others who were slightly behind.

They are all practitioners with their own thoughts and wills.

Because of this, it is easier to be misled by the outside world.

As the distance from the shrine got closer, the illusions around him appeared more and more frequently and became more and more realistic.

In the end, they seemed to be in the grand ceremony hundreds of years ago.

He almost blurred his identity.

Even if you keep your head clear, you can easily be misled by the festivals of the year and take the wrong path.

After all, the team from that year was not exactly the same as their marching route.

And once they leave the team, it may cause damage to the ceremony that is currently being enacted.

At this time, Song Ruyuan played the role of Dinghai Shenzhen.

Whenever someone behind makes a mistake, he will leave the team.

He will always stop it at the first time and make it go on the right path.

Even after being lured and disturbed by an inexplicable demon atmosphere, he never made any mistakes.

It has to be said that as the acting director of the Civil Security Bureau, he really has quite outstanding qualities.

Able to respond to crises in a timely manner.

Su Mo felt a little relieved when he sensed what happened behind him.

In terms of his strength, he can naturally take care of the entire team and prevent any accidents.

But this will consume a lot of his energy, especially in the case of countless monsters following behind him, it is a better choice to leave a certain amount of spare energy for defense.

Now with the help of Song Ruyuan and Xue Lansu, his burden has been greatly lightened.

In this way, you can also focus your energy on the development of the route in front of you.

In fact, during the march of the team, he should bear the greatest pressure.

As the sharp knife of the team, he must lead the team in the right direction.

In the past this was not difficult.

But now it may be because they reproduced the sacrificial ceremony.

The whole road became inexplicably twisted.

In addition, there are illusions from that year constantly interfering.

This makes the development of roads extremely troublesome.

You have to focus on it.

Otherwise, if you are not careful, you may be misled and take the wrong path.

Naturally, it will lead to the failure of the ritual engraving.

Fragments of red light bloomed in Su Mo's eyes, breaking through the many illusions in front of him, looking for the only correct path.

Under his leadership, the team kept approaching the shrine according to the route planned in advance.

Finally, when they were about to reach the shrine, night suddenly fell.

Just like when they went to Han's house, they encountered the same accident at this moment.

As the night fell, the sound of playing music, shouts, and footsteps could be heard faintly in the distance, turning into waves and violently impacting their team.

Having encountered such drastic changes for the first time, Zhong Rui in the team couldn't help but change color.

It's really that the momentum is too frightening, as if tens of millions of people are shouting at the same time.

In comparison, their small team is like a flat boat on the sea.

As the tide rolls and surges, it will capsize on the spot at any time.

Feeling the continuous huge impact from all directions, Su Mo's eyes became slightly solemn.

Powerful spiritual power suddenly penetrated into the God Worship Bell in his hand.

This top-level magic weapon, which had been silent for hundreds of years, burst into unprecedented terror at this moment.

"clang!"

"clang!"

"clang!"

The crisp ringtones turned into substantial sound waves, which expanded wildly in all directions, advancing layer by layer, sweeping away the weirdness and even phantoms around.

Wherever the sound waves passed, countless strange monsters were instantly dumbed down, and thousands of illusions were shattered one after another.

Even though those strange monsters quickly regained their instincts, those phantoms quickly reappeared.

But the sound waves are always scouring and spreading.

This also makes the weirdness and illusions in a state of superposition that is constantly looping.

And all of this is maintained by Su Mo's terrifying spiritual power beyond the normal mage realm.

As long as another person comes over, the situation will immediately collapse completely.

At the same time, Xue Lansu and the others felt indescribably terrified when they felt the majestic and terrifying sound waves.

Even though the sound wave deliberately avoided them, it never did any harm.

But the power contained in the sound waves shocked them physically and mentally just by feeling it.

That is by no means the power possessed by ordinary 7th order.

Even if no one on the scene has reached level 7.

They can also clearly perceive the terrifying level of that power.

It is no different from a god!

Have such a strong support team, and preside over the operation of the ceremony.

At this moment, everyone has unprecedented confidence in the holy artifact.

Even if there are countless strange monsters and illusions gathered in the outside world, it is difficult to shake.

They firmly believe that Su Mo can break through the predicament in this secret realm and lead them to end the catastrophe that has spread so far!

Everyone's steps became more and more firm.

Not long after, they finally arrived at the destination of the trip, the shrine.

The whole process was as difficult as a [-]-mile long march.

Fortunately, it persisted after all.

But in front of the shrine, looking at the mist, Su Mo's face became unprecedentedly solemn.

He knew that the next step was the main event.

"Let's go in."

Su Mo took a deep breath, and the surging mental power suddenly overflowed, condensing into an invisible shield, covering everyone, including the 12-man talisman.

In order to isolate the mist of external erosion.

And when the team finally marched into the mist and stepped on the stone steps climbing the square.

Unknown changes began to happen again.

The mist gathered around began to dissipate as they advanced.

One by one, the mist recondensed into strange monsters and fell behind their team.

Even those corpses hunted in the mist seemed to have received orders, and they were very obedient to join the team.

For a while, the entire shrine gradually lost its original mystery, revealing the hidden ruins beneath it.

Seeing the countless broken bones and wreckage on the road, Song Ruyuan and others were all shocked.

Even though they had already heard about the scene of the shrine from Su Mo and Xue Lansu before.

But I never thought that the real scene would be so terrifying.

The bones that can be seen here alone are densely packed and vary in size, and the total number may be as many as thousands.

Where is this step to worship the gods?

It was clearly a road paved entirely with bones and blood!
From this, one can imagine how miserable the people in that festival must have been hundreds of years ago.

Everyone followed Su Mo forward with a heavy heart.

The fog gradually opened up, melted away, and dissipated into nothingness.

Everything seems to be looking up.

But everyone always felt that an inexplicable atmosphere was slowly forming.

Invisibly, there was a kind of penetrating sense of oppression, which gradually invaded their hearts.

It's like when you are playing in the wild, there are poisonous snakes coveting secretly in the forest, and they will rush out to take a bite at any time.

This feeling made everyone's hair stand on end, and they all raised their vigilance for a while, watching everything around them with great vigilance.

Su Mo led the team forward as if he didn't realize it.

Soon, they walked through the bone stairs paved with countless corpses, and came to the square at the end of the road.

The fog that had gathered in the square completely dissipated with their arrival.

The entire shrine completely revealed the true appearance that had been hidden for many years.

In addition to the huge square, there are only a large number of ruins left.

According to the description in the classics, the ruins of the building are the main building of the shrine.

In the past, whether it was the statue of the god of agriculture enshrined or the people who kept the shrine, they all lived in that hall.

Daily offerings are generally carried out in the main hall.

Only the annual Saturn Sacrifice will be held in the square outside the hall for all villagers to pay their respects to.

Today, although a large part of this building has been destroyed, the square is still relatively well preserved, enough for them to recreate the ceremony.

Su Mo stopped ringing the bell in his hand.

He turned around and looked at the people behind him, as well as the countless strange monsters in the distance.

In a trance, it seemed to overlap with the picture in the illusion, and saw the grand scene of the festival held in the square that day.

Su Mo pulled back his wandering thoughts, looked at the people in front of him, and said loudly:
"let's start!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone stood in awe and stopped in place.

Su Mo casually built a high platform in the center of the square.

The moment after the high platform was formed, the 12-person talisman, like a puppet, immediately walked towards the platform.

Song Ruyuan and others all stared at them.

Even the countless strange monsters behind him cast their gazes.

If you are watching, if you are looking forward to it.

Accompanied by Su Mo's ringing of the bell, the 12-person talisman immediately performed a demonic sacrificial dance.

The opening ceremony of the ceremony begins here!
