I am the Lord of the Gods in the foggy world

Chapter 163 163. Special Sacrifice

When Xu Zhi raised his head, he discovered that the tree belonging to the black cat had disappeared at some point.

Is it because its remains have been taken away?

But now was not the time to ask this question. Xu Zhi tied the bones and the scabbard together and carried it behind his back. He put on his cloak again and quickly left the place towards the entrance.

Not long after she left, there were waves of weird roars coming from behind.

Black Cat's tone suddenly became tired: "It's really just a little bit close."

Xu Zhi frowned: "What are those things? They won't catch up, will they?"

The black cat's voice was slightly lowered: "No, you are walking fast, I will cover your traces, don't stop, go further."

Xu Zhi could hear the fatigue in its voice. Combined with the ability of the Familia [Nightmare], it was not difficult to guess how the black cat covered her whereabouts.

It seems like it really wants to get out of here.

Xu Zhi quickly walked away from here, and she didn't stop until she was almost close to the crack.

There was no abnormality in the hand that was branded by Midnight. Even except for the burning sensation at the beginning, it seemed that everything was no different from before. But it was precisely because of this that Xu Zhi felt even more uneasy.

Seeing her stop, Black Cat was puzzled: "If you don't hurry out, why are you stopping here?"

It looked around, and compared to its previous posture, it was obviously a little too uneasy now.

Why are you upset?

Is there anything different from before?
bone.

Is it upset because the bones were dug out?

It seems that this bone is really important.
"What you promised me has not been fulfilled yet." Xu Zhi looked at it calmly, as if he was not in a hurry.

"Do you know how dangerous it is to stay here, once you are discovered...!"

"Human, we can talk slowly after we go out. It will be safe then. You can talk for as long as you want. I will tell you anything you want to know--"

"No." Xu Zhi immediately interrupted and objected: "I want to know immediately."

The black cat's back arched, and it growled at Xu Zhi with bared teeth: "Human, you should be more aware of current affairs!"

Xu Zhi refused to accept the threat, her eyes were cold: "You are the one who should be more aware of current affairs."

"If you don't want to tell me, I'll throw the bone away."

"You!" This sentence hit the black cat's weakness. Its fur exploded again and again, but there was nothing Xu Zhi could do.

The black cat's green eyes flashed. If it weren't for that damn light, it would have used an illusion to get Xu Zhi to "voluntarily" take it out.

Now, it seems that some price has to be paid.

"Okay, human, what do you want to know?"

Xu Zhi already knew where this place was, but what was more important now was
"Why do you want to go out? Is it because something happened here?"

"Hmph." The black cat turned into a burst of smoke again: "You do know how to ask."

"All the guys here want out, not just me."

This is the first answer to Xu Zhi's question.This was not beyond Xu Zhi's expectation. After all, she already knew that this was a cemetery, and all the "creatures" in Midnight should be dead, and leaving Midnight might mean recovery.

"But your guess is right, something happened at midnight." The black cat floated in the air tiredly.

"That crack disrupted certain arrangements. Since it is impossible to leave, it has become dangerous in the middle of the night. The guys who have regained consciousness want to leave here as soon as possible instead of being used as sacrifices."

Having said this, the black cat suddenly let out a cry of pain and fell from the air to the ground. Its hair was no longer shiny, as if it had suffered a serious injury.

It seems to have suffered some sort of backlash.

The black cat on the ground was immersed in death for nearly half a minute, and then slowly opened its eyes again, but its emerald-like eyes also became dim at this moment. It said to Xu Zhi in an extremely weak voice:

"I have told you the answer, now it is time for you to fulfill your promise."

The black cat looked extremely miserable, but Xu Zhi was not satisfied: "Is that all?"

Hearing Xu Zhi's greedy speech, the black cat's voice became shrill: "Human! Don't be too greedy!"

"I have told you everything I can say. Even so, I have suffered backlash. If I say even one more word, I don't have to go out!"

Seeing the black cat's attitude, Xu Zhi understood that this was indeed its limit.

A sacrifice?
Xu Zhi had some thoughts in her mind, but now was not the time to think deeply. She nodded: "Why don't you hide in the cloak? You are too conspicuous."

Seeing that Xu Zhi no longer asked it to say more, the black cat was relieved. The backlash could not be concealed. It was afraid that Xu Zhi was not satisfied yet, so it really couldn't say anything more.

But with Xu Zhi's "permission", the light of the lantern no longer burned the black cat's soul, and it was able to get in successfully.

"That's right." Xu Zhi suddenly said: "There is a guard at the entrance, just in case. If it wants to find me, you'd better cover it up for me."

The cat hiding in the cloak has its hair blown again. Is the thing guarding it an existence that it can easily fool around with? !

Humanity!

So greedy!

But it really couldn't stand idly by. After all, if Xu Zhi was caught, his remains would also be lost.
The exhumed bones must not be left in the middle of the night, they must go.

The black cat lay tiredly on Xu Zhi's shoulder to gather strength. When necessary, it could only take action.

Damn humanity, when it leaves here, it will immediately take back its own bones. When the time comes, it will definitely let this human being know the price of threatening it!

When he reached the entrance of the crack, Xu Zhi promptly changed the core of the lantern and changed the light from [Lamp] to [Cup].

And she could feel that when the lights changed, the black cat hiding in her shoulder became more alert.

It seems that it hates the smell of [Cup] more than [Lamp].

When we walked to the entrance, perhaps due to the movement deep in the forest, the creatures that had been lying leisurely on the edge of the crack were now wandering near the crack.

Xu Zhi didn't dare to look up at it. The "intuition" of high-level extraordinary creatures was extremely sharp and would easily detect the sight of them. Xu Zhi could only hold his breath, slow down and walk quickly towards the crack.

Under the cover of his cloak, Xu Zhi was like a mist moving quickly on the ground. It had no breath and did not attract any attention, but it was still a bit strange to be a moving mist in this windless forest.

Fortunately, when Xu Zhi walked next to the tall creature, the black cat hidden under the cloak took action in time to help Xu Zhi cover up.

Therefore, Xu Zhi was able to reach the mouth of the crack smoothly. As long as she crossed the crack, she would return to the present world, and her cooperation with the black cat would break at that moment.
