my brother is god

Chapter 219 Ailish's Blade
Going down along the spiral staircase formed by the black stone steps, when approaching the bottom, Feiyue unexpectedly discovered a strange belief on the stone wall as dark as the staircase. This belief seems to have been formed in a very old time, but It doesn't seem like the time the reliefs have gone through is that long. Most of the above are scenes of giants fighting humans. At that time, the land was still barren. It was a war that only existed at the beginning of creation.

There are almost no stone rooms for living on the two sides of the place, but on the other side of the path before reaching the ground floor and entering the wide hall through the crack-like path, there is a sacrificial room that is so low that people have to bend down to enter. In a used room, there are some dry corpses that have been made and an altar flowing with bright red blood. A dying human man is nailed to the wall. The source of the blood is his wrist, which is smeared A drug that won't heal, and until the blood runs out he won't be blessed with death.

Feiyue is like an archaeologist, bending over to observe around the small room of the sacrifice, not paying attention to the filthy things scattered everywhere, as if these have nothing to do with her, just blindly paying attention from the spiral staircase to the The relief here is different from the reliefs of the previous battles. It describes a weird ritual, which looks a bit like some kind of ritual believed by the Cthulhu evil god, but Feiyue paid much attention to these myths in her previous life. For the gods Feiyue still knows some summoning rituals, even some rituals of witchcraft, Feiyue also knows some, but the consciousness on this relief is completely different from what Feiyue knows.

First of all, judging from the reliefs, it is just a simple animal sacrifice, and it is carried out in the open air, which is not much different from the conventional large-scale sacrifice. The ointment of pigs, cattle and sheep, as well as the fine wine that can ignite the fire, the naked people in scanty clothes The girl, the muscular man with a bare upper body, and the priest wearing a strange glyph and a mask with huge fangs gathered together and twisted their bodies into an unimaginable F shape, but this was just an ordinary There are many religious ceremonies that are similar to this one, so far as Feiyue knows, she can't count them all.

Then, the trend of the ceremony began to become weird. In the picture, a huge head can be seen. This head is like a hillock in the prairie to people. People pry open the skull of the head and eat its spinal cord, because It's a mural, so Feiyue didn't feel disgusted at all. Of course, if it was placed in front of it, I'm afraid I'd have to vomit, but this relief is the only one that Feiyue has seen runes, and Feiyue also knows this one. Rune, the meaning of rune includes both giving and offering, and is often used as a living sacrifice.

This is already half of the reliefs in the sacrificial stone room. The third step is what Feiyue sees now, using human blood to sacrifice, and under the blood tank of this altar, there is a huge stone house. The giant whose spinal cord was eaten before, the rune in the relief has been engraved into the giant's soul. As for why so much human blood is needed, I don't know if it is to revive the giant or what.

The meaning of the last stone carving is the simplest, that is, humans drive the giants to fight for themselves, so according to the meaning of this relief, the front is to control the giants, but even so, Feiyue still can't understand why so many humans are used The blood was used as a sacrifice, and the rewards of those who sacrificed were unbalanced. After all, even if giants were resurrected, they would not have wisdom, but humans could create infinite possibilities.

Finally, Feiyue turned her gaze back to the altar soaked in blood. There was indeed a water tank under the altar that could allow the blood to flow down, but the black stone steps did not continue to lead down the road, so now Feiyue can only guess The way down is at the end of the hall on the other side of the narrow corridor, but when Feiyue was about to leave, she saw a symbol, the original shape of which Feiyue had seen before, it was the dagger of mourning song, Yue guessed right, the daggers of mourning song, elegy, and elegy all have the same shape, so the organization that Feiyue is in now is probably not a bandit, but an organization that completely serves Ailish. This organization, Fimi, is called the Eilish Blade, but Feiyue has never cared about state affairs, and Feimi didn't explain it to Feiyue because she didn't have any definite evidence.

During this period, both Earl and Yingying retreated to the outside of the sacrificial stone house, and the strong bloody smell inside made them dizzy, but what surprised them was that Feiyue could stay inside for so long and seemed to be fine. Things are the same, of course, the two of them will not know what Feiyue did when she was still a ghost, maybe Yingying knows some, but not much, after all, everyone is unwilling to mention the past.

After Feiyue walked out of the sacrificial stone room, her complexion was not very good. Against the background of the torch in the narrow crack, she was a little frightening. The two of them had never seen Feiyue's expression so gloomy, but they thought about what they saw in the stone room before. Yes, I took it for granted, not to mention that Feiyue must have discovered something more unpleasant after staying in it for so long.

Feiyue, who was silent, nodded slightly to Earl and Yingying, indicating that she had no problem, and then walked to the narrow crack on the other side. The fire at the end of the crack was bright, and the sound of wailing and crying disappeared. The wailing and crying heard probably came from this sacrificial stone house. There are too many people who died here, and the souls of the dead who have nowhere to go can only wander in this small corridor and hall.

Entering the hall, there is an empty hall like a refugee camp. There are still some members of Eilish Blade whipping the slaves, but the number is much smaller than the slaves, and the ratio of ten to one may not even be reached. When seeing Feiyue, Earl, and Hotaru enter, the members of Ailish Blade were stunned for a moment. Before they could react, Hotaru's dagger had already reached their throats. Like a dead soul who passed away and was liberated, it turned into a pile of dust like this, leaving nothing behind.

"As you can see, all the people I killed turned out like this, so you haven't seen a single corpse since you came in!" With the help of Earl and some strong slaves who tried to resist It didn't take long for all the members of Ailish's Blade to be emptied, and the deaths of these members were all turned into dust without exception.

Feiyue turned her eyes to those skinny slaves, most of them had no light in their eyes. Under the firelight of the stone room, they curled up, crawled, and looked at Feiyue with shrinking and resentful eyes with their heads in their hands. Er and Yingying, all the people who stood up and resisted, still muttered some ugly curse words in their mouths, as if these people would bring them blame.

Earl frowned and looked at the picture in front of him. This is not hell but it is comparable to hell, or worse than hell. A stench more disgusting than sulfur lingers under his nose, cursing the vicious Words lingered in their ears, these enslaved people had lost hope and kindness in the long beating and torture, but more of them were sly eyes like demons.

The rebels finally gathered in the center of the hall, most of them were newly captured slaves, and these slaves were more or less wounded. With the help of the huge bonfire, some of them recognized Feiyue , and immediately fell to the ground, crying bitterly for Feiyue's arrival, and also grateful for her new life and redemption.

"What are they arresting you here for?" Feiyue asked the young man who took the lead in rebelling. When staring at the other party, Feiyue discovered that there was a flame-like light in the young man's eyes, "Say it, no matter what it is, it can't scare me!"

"Yes, my queen!" The young man bowed his head to show respect to Feiyue, and then with Feiyue's permission, he crossed his legs to the ground, and Feiyue asked Firefly to take out the last food for these poor and brave people to enjoy. Fan, while enjoying, tell all the stories to himself.

"At the end of this darkened hall, there is the same spiral staircase as we entered. We have gone there in the past to avoid blame, because it is an area that even the guards are not allowed to enter, or the guards seem to be What kind of curse is on, as long as you enter without authorization, you will be turned into a ball of ashes, but we don't!" The young man took a sip of strong wine, took a deep breath, and then said slowly, "I don't recommend you to enter there, there are piles of I found a shriveled corpse, and a huge head about one and a half as tall as me. Like the shriveled corpse, that huge head is also shriveled and sunken, but I am a child of the grassland, and I can feel that the owner of the huge head does not Not dead, but slowly recovering."

"It seems that we still have to go!" After listening to the young man's simple narration, Feiyue said to Earl and Yingying, "But I think I can go alone. You two arrange these poor people to leave. As for those who don’t want to leave, just let them go! As long as they don’t hinder you, just leave them alone!”

After finishing speaking, Feiyue crossed the blazing bonfire and began to walk towards the dark end of the hall. There was neither torches, nor light, nor even curled up bodies. It was just a pitch-black shadow. Even Yingying and Earl couldn't fully see the area that was darker than the shadow, which couldn't be seen by the eyes. As for Feiyue's normal performance, it was unknown.

When falling into the shadow, Feiyue did not use any light, and from the eyes of the onlookers, it was not Feiyue that entered the shadow, but the shadow that swallowed Feiyue, and Feiyue walked in the shadow without fear in her heart, here and It was the same as when entering, it was a crack like being split by a sword, and at the end of the crack was a dark spiral stone step. There were no reliefs or stone chambers on both sides of the stone step, just a simple road.
