Chapter 219

After the Tarot session, Chris returned to Star Island.

This time, he pocketed all the spells and "Twisted Hunger" he had previously placed on Star Island, leaving only the "Witch" card here.

If he wants to use it, he needs to carry it into the spirit world on Star Island, so there is no need for him to leave with the "Witch" card.

Five pieces of "Foul Words", five pieces of "Sun Flame" spell, five packs of "Sea Wave" powder, and the same amount of "Rose" powder, and two pieces each of "Dream" spell, "Slumber" spell, " Requiem" spell, coupled with the "twisted hunger" of souls that have not yet been collected.

This is all Chris currently owns.

He returned to reality and quietly waited for the decisive moment to come.

……

The grand ceremony began in the evening, and the music grew from weak to strong, echoing in the streets and alleys of the city.

The people of Vinia were twisting and dancing at the door of their homes. Twelve luxuriously decorated carriages circled the city three times. The coachmen swayed on the saddles and sang songs loudly.

The twelve protagonists tonight are the girls in the carriage. Although they are supporting roles, they are also trying their best to express themselves.

There was fanaticism in everyone's eyes.

The city square made of white marble is already full of people. When the circuit of the city is completed, the tribute procession will drive from here along the main street to the mountain.

"Calm down, calm down, stop squeezing me!"

"Tell him to go to hell! Give me the wine!"

"Look! That boy is the coachman! Hey!"

Under the thick stone pillars, Chris and Steve stood there without saying a word, expressionless.

According to the plan, they would join the tribute team outside the city, and at this time, the eight extraordinary people were following the carriage as they paraded around the city.

Suddenly there was a loud sound of gongs and drums in my ears, the rhythm was intense and the mood was high.

The tribute team came from afar.

The dense crowd erupted in waves of noise. They threw their flowers into the air and fell on the passing carriage.

In a circled open space, the royal band was playing passionate music, the percussionist shook his head, and the people on the side kept twisting their bodies to the melody of drums and trombones.

"What did you say? Yes! We have to go around the city again!"

Steve leaned into Chris' ear and shouted loudly.

After the tribute team left here, the bustling crowd calmed down and slowly became silent, but the only thing that was calm for the time being was the sound.

The Royal Band changed to another tune, the conductor waved his arms in mid-air, and Chris heard the melody of the lyre and clarinet.

"Where's Vinia?" Chris asked in a low voice.

Steve looked towards the direction of the palace and replied:

"Still at the palace. He will join us."

About 15 minutes later, the tribute team arrived again.

This time they will no longer stay, but will drive directly out of the city and head to the mountains to pay tribute to the "Dragon of Justice" Oris Heed.

At this time, the crowd became restless again. Young men and women in gorgeous clothes swayed their bodies. There was a girl with yellow hair, her hands on her hips, her head held high, and she kicked her legs proudly.

Chris felt that this was not like a "Tribute Day" at all. If Vinia hadn't told him about Orishead's deeds, he would have thought it was just a grand festival.

"Dance, dance," someone in the crowd shouted, "Dance to your heart's content!"

Yes, dance to your heart's content...

Chris murmured, followed Steve through the crowd, and quietly followed the tribute carriage team.

No one paid any attention to them and everything in the square was swaying.The tribute carriage team had no worries about the inclusion of unchosen people. They had never thought about this from the beginning.

Here, everyone abides by the rules very much, even those drunkards who hang out in different bars will be more at ease on this day.

"too crazy."

After the two quietly followed the carriage team, Chris sighed.

"There will be even crazier things later." Steve wiped the snot from his nose on the horse's butt and said as he walked.

When we walked onto the main road, everyone on the carriage and the people next to us lit torches and raised them. If we were in the square, after a while we would see a string of bright lines rising slowly along the winding mountain road.

Vinya and Sunlet also left the palace and followed the procession.

Tonight, the king does not need to make any speeches. Apart from the previous drawing of lots and selection of tributes, everything on Tribute Day is spontaneous among the people.

The carriage team passed the standing sign at the foot of the mountain, but nothing happened. The seal arranged by Orished was lifted tonight.

Chris and Steve walked forward slowly and reached the front of the carriage queue. "Pleasure Witch" Kenna stopped in front. When the two of them approached, they opened their arms and used the witch's charm and persuasive power.

Her targets include all those who are not Extraordinary.

The carriage procession gradually came to a stop. The coachman with a blank expression jumped out of the carriage, and the girls in the carriage also got off the carriage. They all walked down the mountain in unison, towards their homes.

After they left, other Beyonders who were walking took over the whip and continued to drive the carriage toward the mountain.

Each of them was equipped with magical items. Chris also stopped and put on the "boots of flight" and the nearly transparent "twisted hunger" on his right hand.

He won't collect the souls of his teammates, but if Orished holds any evil Beyonders, he'll be happy to herd their souls.

Sunright drove the front one, with Vinia, Steve and Chris in the car.

There were originally a total of twelve carriages, each driving one, but now the extra carriages were left on the roadside.

Vinya is wearing a crown, which is a magical item handed down from his ancestors, which can maximize his "Retribution Knight" related abilities.

Seeing Chris staring at the crown on his head, Vinia took it off and showed Chris and Steve the six different-colored gemstones inlaid on it.

"There are six gems in total, representing my six ancestors."

Winia smiled and continued:
"This is the crown that Vinya I once wore. He died in the battle with Orished, and the extraordinary characteristics were fused with the crown."

Chris listened silently while Steve opened the rectangular box on his lap and looked at the Fury inside.

"'Rage' is not." Vinia shook her head and smiled.

In the swaying carriage, the three of them remained silent.

After a long time, when Chris turned to look out the car window again and looked down the mountain, he found that he could no longer see the people in the city square and could only see the flickering light of torches.

What do you think when you know that a battle is about to begin, and the enemy is a giant dragon that is far more powerful than your own, with less than [-]% chance of victory, and you can't take a step back?
His answer was, nothing.

If you want to leave here and return to reality, you can only kill Him, the so-called "Dragon of Justice" Oris Hed.

At least for now.

And these faces that appear in front of him may...

A loud noise interrupted Chris's thoughts. The king's guard officer Sunlet jumped out of the carriage, and a fireball was simultaneously fired from the "Purgatory Torch" in his hand, lighting up the dark night sky.

The "Dragon of Justice" flapped its wings and hovered in the air in front of them.

"Oh--"

The moment Sanlet shouted, he was violently overturned by the air wave.
