331 Chapter 330
Even though the sky-chasing team didn’t understand what Zhao Xu had just realized, after they heard his orders, they all quickly walked up to him. They didn’t care about the blood on the bodies as they untied them one by one and carried them out onto the grass outside.
seeing this scene, peter was also furious and said, ” “What are you doing? stop!”
however, the sky-chasing team did not pay any attention to his protests and continued to carry out their mission.
“sir, what are you doing?” Ellington asked curiously.
it’s nothing. I just suddenly realized that eternal life is no longer a problem for him. Since he’s not willing to sit on the arcane throne, he’s basically a half-purgatory creature by then. zhao xu explained, ” then today, the other party used his parents as a sacrifice, so it must be another request. ”
When Clinton heard the word “sacrifice,” his entire body trembled as cold sweat started to form on his forehead.
“I’m guessing that he wants to go one step further and become a true demon. Or, let his family become ‘half-purgatory creatures’. ” Zhao Xu looked around the living room.
Basically, all the doors and windows had been sealed with wooden boards, and there were even some items used for exorcism, such as replicas of Holy emblems and bottles of holy water piled everywhere.
The priest goda also sighed. his parents probably wanted to perform a dispel ritual for him to turn him back into a normal human, but they were killed by him in the end. They were too naive to think that they could solve this problem with their own strength.
“that’s right.” zhao xu said to ellington, ” sometimes, when you try to solve a hole yourself, you’ll only make the hole bigger and bigger. ”
ellington, on the other hand, nodded, not fully understanding.
“I didn’t expect you to guess this.” at this time, peter, who was bound, opened and closed his mouth, which had grown fangs, and said, ” no matter what you do, you can’t stop the will of our lord. ”
Zhao Xu immediately clenched his fists and thought to himself, I was waiting for you to say that.
“Increase control.” zhao xu immediately shouted at the priest goda.
peter would never know how much of a secret he had unintentionally revealed to zhao xu by using the word ” my lord ” and how much confidence he had in him.
Zhao Xu had been harassed by the demon Lord grazite before, and he was planning to use this opportunity to test out the will of the abyss.
Even if he was only a level 5 mage, he was now qualified to kick the stones around him and change the current of the great era.
“what level?” The priest goda asked.
their team was the lowest level of response, blue.
above that, there were yellow, green, and even red levels. as for the levels above that, he wasn’t sure.
“Red,” Zhao Xu said decisively, ” use my name to publish it.
This was also the most powerful force that the ” Senior Inspector ” could mobilize, which meant that the next reinforcement team would have at least a strong person who could cast a ninth-circle spell.
This level was rare even in the emergency response of Rose Cross.
ten minutes later, the light of a teleportation spell appeared on the grass in the garden. zhao xu saw an old acquaintance of his, wizard reyan.
“You’re a Lone Star, aren’t you?” when reyan saw zhao xu, he said angrily, ” i asked you to take on a part-time teaching position and get in touch with people from other levels. how did you manage to get into this kind of ceremony? ”
reyan was wearing a simple robe, with only nine concentric circles inlaid with golden silk shining at the edge of the robe, representing the identity of a ninth-circle sorcerer.
“Deputy Supreme Commander.” the members of the sky-chasing team hurriedly greeted reyan when they saw him appear.
zhao xu also noticed that the team reyan was leading now consisted mostly of pure spellcasters. aside from the paladin, the warriors and rangers from void’s team were nowhere to be seen.
When Zhao Xu heard how his team members addressed him, he looked at Reyan in surprise. Wizard Reyan?”
reyan finally revealed a smug expression and looked at zhao xu proudly. ” ha, i’m about to break through to the legendary level, so i’ll be the one getting the seat. ”
“i’m the one who’s curious. why are you here this time?” zhao xu continued to complain. the last time he had come across four of andy’s companions ‘bodies, he had been the one to inform reyan.
However, it was a bit of a coincidence that Reyan was here this time.
“Do you think that a random ninth-ring Soul Master will cooperate with you so easily? Therefore, it must be me, an acquaintance, who took the initiative to apply to join.” Reyan said.
in reality, he was also worried that his colleagues didn’t understand the situation clearly. if they offended zhao xu, who seemed to be on the rise in the organization, they might end up suffering in silence.
In the eyes of the floating city, Wizards from the first to the Ninth Circle who could not cast legendary spells were mostly useless.
those who had the qualifications to become legendary-mages would be given special treatment. at the very least, they would be resurrected after dying in an accident.
at this moment, everyone present had already thought highly of zhao xu’s power. when they saw that the deputy commander, who had always been so high and mighty, didn’t have any conflict with this high-ranking inspector in front of them, they immediately knew that this person’s reputation was real.
After all, Reyan was famous for his iron-willed character in the Rose Cross. Any member of a large family who came to gain experience would be ridiculed by him.
Gotha was even more glad that he had acted according to the other party’s request and had not gone through the proper procedures.
as he spoke, reyan handed zhao xu an invitation letter that was completely plated in gold. ” okay, remember to come and attend my legendary advancement ceremony. ”
Zhao Xu almost didn’t understand what was going on, but he still took it in a daze.
he didn’t expect arthur’s metal invitation to be so well-made, but it didn’t have a date.
“you don’t have time for this invitation?” zhao xu asked in return.
“You little brat, you’re so ignorant. i’m inviting you to attend the ceremony and feel the air of us legendary powerhouses advancing. I can’t accurately guess the magic net’s frequency. In any case, you’ll find out in a few months when the right time comes. then, you can enter with this card.”
” it’ll be good for you to have a closer look when you break through to the legendary realm. ”
reyan said, ” besides, i was busy with my breakthrough at that time. who had the time to come and entertain you? who could come in and who couldn’t? so, you can take this vip card for now.”
In reality, he was also very nervous inside. He was hoping that Zhao Xu would be able to get Antonya to come and watch the ceremony with him. The series of God-tier equipment that Antonya had might be able to help him out if he failed.
at this moment, zhao xu also noticed the entire sky-chaser team. they were all looking at the invitation card in his hand with envy.
ellington also stared in a daze. Even Peter, who had normal intelligence, could only remain silent after hearing Reyan’s explanation.
Everyone finally understood which industry Zhao Xu was from.
reyan glanced at peter, who had turned into a half-purgatory creature, and walked into the room.
at this time, the few priests and mages who were also in the middle and high circle were already investigating in the living room.
“the other party wants to turn his parents and butler into ‘half-purgatory creatures’.” A black-robed priest with a serious expression on his face said, confirming one of Zhao Xu’s guesses.
In general, the priests in the church of the goddess who wore this color of the robe represented the role of judgment and execution.
reyan then waved his hand. ” take that kid to the spell interrogation, regardless of whether he lives or dies. ” no, if he really dies, bring him to the temple and use the 9th circle complete resurrection spell to resurrect him.”
In Arthur, ” undead creatures, ” ” Otherworld creatures, ” and ” elemental creatures ” would die when their lives reached zero. If they wanted to be resurrected, they had to use level 7 or level 9 resurrection spells.
After hearing Reyan’s order, a middle-aged mage with a scar on his face smiled, showing his yellow teeth. He walked over and dragged Peter to an open space, then released the fifth-circle ‘Mordenkainen secret room’.
in an instant, the area was covered in an impenetrable darkness, concealing their movements.
” this is already the third case of a ‘half-purgatory creature’ being discovered in the past five years. ” Reyan’s face was a little gloomy as he looked at the barbed wire on the ceiling that had just fixed his body in place.
“let’s purify this place first.” reyan looked at the pool of blood on the ground in disgust and directly ordered the black-robed priest.
then, he dragged zhao xu out of the room.
“So violent?” Zhao Xu didn’t think that Reyan wouldn’t analyze the entire process of the ritual first, but would instead solve it directly and roughly.
“i can’t be bothered to care so much. so what if i know you? or do you think they’re pitiful and want to use a spell to save them?”
But as soon as he finished speaking, he realized that Zhao Xu didn’t ask him any more questions, and he started to feel bad himself. Hey, hey, aren’t you going to ask me why? ”
zhao xu looked at reyan in surprise. ” no, i just realized that you would definitely recognize the ritual circle, so there’s no need for me to study it anymore. besides, i’m also in a hurry to destroy the ritual so that the other party’s parents and servants don’t turn into half-purgatory creatures, right? ”
once they became half-purgatory creatures, it meant that the price of resurrection would be raised from the ” level five ” resurrection spell to the level nine ” complete resurrection spell. ”
“Ha, it’s still alright.” reyan leaned closer and whispered, ” now that you’re a third-circle wizard, you’ve finally gained some knowledge. ”
“thank god you didn’t ask me why i didn’t quickly use a level 5 spell to resurrect them.”
at this moment, ellington also turned his head over and wanted to hear what zhao xu had to say.
zhao xu looked at the people in front of him who were coming over to deal with the bodies and said, ” they didn’t report it and chose to deal with it themselves. it’s not that they’re wrong, but that they have to bear the consequences of their choice. they can’t blame anyone for their death. ”
“and if i can’t stand it, i should be the one to resurrect myself, not ask others to resurrect me.”
in his previous life, he was one of the people who had been unable to revive his family.
He could also understand the cruel meaning of the hope of ‘resurrection’.
