Kacha!
Another astonishing black lightning flashed across the night sky, and even the earth trembled because of the deafening thunder in the night sky. A huge shadow appeared in the distance of the mountains, and the filthy breath of the earth was suppressed at this moment. The battle with the black mud, fossils, and indescribable monsters slowed down a bit, but ordinary people were also affected by the trembling breath at this time.
It was an ancient, insane, bloody smell that could never be satisfied.
"The God-Caller wants to call God?"
When the black lightning streaked across the snowy night sky, more than one person had this thought, but for Xia De, who was lying on the table, he unexpectedly discovered that even after eating so much pepper, the Lord of the Blood Feast still did not give him any response.
This was a gift from Fiona in the Fifth Era. The description at the Dragon Maid Café was:
The Great One - The pepper pot of the Lord of the Blood Feast, a relic, can make any food delicious when sprinkled on it. Frequent and large doses will cause severe gluttony until the Lord of the Blood Feast looks at or comes.
A delicious bait for the master of the blood feast.
When he saw the pepper pot in the passage connecting St. Byrons and the Randall River Valley, combined with the advice given to him by Miss Feliana and Miss Orlanod in the glass greenhouse in the Fifth Era, Shad planned to take this opportunity to call upon the familiar old god and use the relic in his hand to obtain a drop of divinity as he had done the previous two times.
Although this sounds crazy, after the promotion, Shade still has a drop of divinity in his body, so there is no need to worry about unexpected situations.
Moreover, he could even use the power of the evil god to suppress the guardian and purify his soul with "gluttony". If he was lucky, he could even let the blood feast master in blood clothes devour the filth of the earth.
But after the essential oil of desire was mixed with the seasoning of the evil god, although it made the "bait" fragrant and made Shade, who swallowed the bait, fall into a madness of wanting to devour everything, he did not feel at all that the evil god wanted to come.
"Could it be that the can of pepper was kept in Evernight City for too long and expired?"
In the frenzy of hunger, Xia De thought suspiciously.
Just to remind you, that is the bait that the Blood Feast Master uses to fish, not the bait you use to fish for her.
"Her" gentle voice further awakened Shad's soul, which was sliding out of control due to his gluttony:
Besides, no one would fall in the same place twice, right
As soon as he finished speaking, Shad, who was unable to move due to the influx of a huge amount of spirits and uncontrollable desires, felt the gaze that was clearly from the gods.
The pepper shaker of the Lord of the Blood Feast was not without effect. The god turned his gaze to the "fish" that had bitten the bait in the mortal world, and noticed the familiar soul.
At the same time, in a semi-comatose hallucination, Shade once again came to the dark banquet hall on the top floor of Lake View Manor. At the end of the long table with dried human bodies hanging on it and piled with flesh and blood, he saw the god in red.
Xia De stood at the door of the banquet hall, and the god sat at the end of the long table at the end of the banquet hall. Both of them were quite familiar with each other's power, even too familiar.
This time, the god who was enjoying the feast of flesh and blood did not leave his seat, nor did he try to borrow Shad's body to descend into the material world.
Xia De heard the soft question, which came from the never-satisfied flesh squirming under the red coat. It was not an ordinary voice, but a sound made by the squirming flesh, and even listening to one syllable would drive a mortal completely crazy:
"Is this enough for you?"
Instinctively, Xia De gave the answer:
"not enough!"
In the real world, next to Shad who was lying on the table, the empty pepper shaker was destroyed, shattered into silver spots of light that flew into Shad's chest, and then lit up the gluttony rune on the sleeper's life ring.
Ding Dong!
At this moment, a clear sound seemed to ring directly in the minds of everyone at the edge of the open space. Someone was hitting a bell with a small hammer. This was the reminder sound for the beginning of the banquet.
The vibrating metallic sound vibrates the spirit and the soul, but in this chaotic night, it also heralds the beginning of a brand new event.
A corner of the life ring appeared behind the prone Shad. Blasphemy-Gluttony devoured the huge amount of spirit in Shad's body, resonating with his current desire for gluttony, and constructing the same power contained in the two drops of divinity long ago.
The performance that Desire had been waiting for officially began. The blood feast began again.
The sweet smell in the wind made everyone present feel the hunger deep in their souls. As the light covering Shade disappeared, the bloody red mist poured out of Shade's body until it covered the entire open space.
This was not the arrival of a higher-dimensional power, but simply the restoration of some of the power of the Blood Feast Master. But he had truly touched the essence of that god, and with the increase of desire, he almost touched the realm of the god with his mortal body.
After all, no one would have thought to mix the essence of desire with the spice of gluttony.
At this moment, the eyes of all the people fighting in the snow were forcibly drawn to the figure standing up at the long dining table. The oppressive feeling beyond the thirteen rings and the power overflowing with a little divinity represented the power of the strongest mortal in the world.
They heard it, they heard the bells that marked the beginning of the feast;
They smelled it. They smelled the thick aroma that triggered the most primitive desire for food in the spreading bloody fog.
They saw that the snowflakes on the empty table were swept away, and flying snow and red butterflies were swirling around the golden cups and silver plates on the table that were filled with sumptuous delicacies.
When the blood mist dispersed, the scarlet mist mixed with the filthy gray snowflakes and strange red butterflies, and hideous snowmen gradually took shape in the blood mist. Like guests of a blood feast, they stood in the open space, staring at the two people at the table.
They really noticed that the "God Summoner" in red slowly raised his head from the table, and looked at the guardian at the end of the long dining table filled with sumptuous dishes, under the gaze of the snow people with ferocious expressions.
It was not until this moment that the Guardian truly felt the danger. He finally gave up trying to condense the dark Holy Grail in his hand and tried to stand up, but he felt as if he was firmly sucked to the seat and could not move.
The surging black mud tried to surround the man in red sitting at the table from the ground, but in the blink of an eye, the black mud turned into part of the long dining table, providing enjoyment for the owner of the table.
In the flying snowflakes, Shade, who felt like he wanted to devour everything at this moment, pressed his palm on the table. Then, the dark color of the guardian and the clay holy grail that was about to take shape on the table turned into scarlet smoke and flowed towards Shade.
After all, everything at the blood feast table is bait for that god.
The filthy spirits and twisted powers gradually peeled off from the guardian in the blink of an eye. The soul that had originally wanted to resist gradually calmed down and looked at the scenery in front of him as if waking up from a dream.
The twelve giant clay clones that were guarding the open space and fighting with the high-ring warlocks finally turned into dust silently and merged into the black mud on the ground. The witch standing on the giant's shoulder even lost her target and almost caused the stone giant to fall down.
Only the battle against the cultists and the stone statue that looked like an old man continued, but the filth on the ground did not disappear because of the guardian's awakening.
"Is it over?"
Siris, who was standing at the edge of the clearing, stared at the scene in front of him in a daze. He had never expected that in the end, Shade would solve the Guardian's madness by devouring the filth himself. But Luvia shook her head slightly and looked at the "Blood Weeper" Hermons in the air, who was still laughing even though his left arm was cut off by Sister Defulin's sickle.
“Maybe, it’s just the beginning.”
“Enjoy the biggest surprise of the night!”
The thirteenth ring warlock from the Blood Spirit School turned into a blood light and flew towards the stone statue that looked like an old man who was gradually unable to hold on. The ring warlocks in the air hurried to intercept the blood light, but just as they turned around to meet the enemy, the stone statue fell to the ground on its own initiative, and was instantly stained black by the black mud.
Cracks appeared on the surface of the stone statue, and it was expanding with a dangerous and blasphemous aura flashing, about to explode. Miss Aurora, who had received the information from Sirius, shouted:
"Seal him. This is the cultists' final sacrifice to summon the gods."
But it was too late. The sense of crisis made everyone evacuate quickly to a distance. Then, as the earth trembled, dazzling light illuminated the night sky. With a loud noise sweeping across the entire valley, a mushroom cloud-like scene appeared in the sky above the northeastern suburbs of the Randall Valley.
The chaos of spirit and energy caused by the explosion was even more terrifying than the battle between the two thirteenth ring warlocks of the Orthodox Church and the guardian's clone. Although the empty space where the long dining table was placed was very close, the guardian who had regained consciousness raised his hand and the khaki shield blocked the impact of the explosion.
"Shad!"
The blood mist was slowly dissipating. The power of the blood mist to melt the body and soul made people afraid to approach for the time being. Only Yin Luna was able to rush in directly, and then saw Xia De at the table, covering his chest with a pale face:
"Don't worry, I'm fine, I just ate something unclean."
He said softly, Yin Luna came to the table and supported Xia De worriedly, then looked up and said to the guardian unceremoniously:
"Now that you are awake, let's hold the Chosen Ceremony now. Don't waste any more time!"
"The evil god is coming, I can feel it."
Xia De said softly. He couldn't explain his physical condition at the moment. He could only say that after absorbing the spirits of the guardian that were contaminated by the origin of the earth, he could still use a puzzle lock completely:
"We need five guests for the feast. Please wait a moment. Let Luvia and the others, as well as the church staff, come in."
Although he had summoned the sweet-smelling red mist, he was unable to actively clear it away. He suspected that it was caused by the gaze of the "Lord of the Blood Feast" just now, so he could only let it slowly dissipate on its own.
