I am the Lord in the World of Mist

When the 'Heavenly Dog' devoured the sun, the apocalypse descended. Xu Zhi, a young girl with a heart condition, was cruelly abandoned by her parents in a dead city.

Countless mutated...

173. Chapter 173 The Beginning of the Mutation

Although it has been decided to start the ceremony, such a huge ceremony cannot be started just by saying it.

The federal blockade and clearance did play a role. The most perfect form of this ceremony should be coherent. To start the ceremony, one only needs to stand in the center and follow the steps after sufficient preparation.

But now they don't have such conditions, nor can they open the ceremony too high-profile. After all, the geographical center of the Federation is the capital. The capital has more [Light] attribute extraordinary people than other places, and it is more strictly guarded and dangerous. Even carving formations in the dark corners of the capital is a very difficult and time-consuming task.

The plan was successfully completed thanks to the high-level believers who mixed in with the "human" group in the capital as a cover-up.

We also have to thank the fact that the extraordinary awakening time is not long. The way humans judge fanatics is too crude, and high-level believers with the ability of [disguise] can stay well in the human group.

Now, according to the master's suggestion, they slightly modified the formation's activation ceremony and planned 13 activation points. As long as these 13 key formation positions are activated one by one in sequence, then this huge formation with a wide range affecting the entire federation will be completely activated.

They had already prepared for this. When they had prepared all the "sacrifices" needed to start the ceremony, they returned to the dark, damp and cold tomb again.

The gems of this world cannot live up to His words, so what the believers prepared were naturally the flesh, blood, and organs of the extraordinary people.

In addition, nearly a hundred believers came down from the not-so-small tomb one after another. They were all high-level believers. Although each of them was wearing different clothes, they all had the same fanatical expression on their faces.

Almost every believer who came in was carrying a backpack. When the zipper was opened, they took out the flesh and blood of the extraordinary people they had "hunted". Most of them were well-preserved hearts, sealed in strange blood-colored sealed glass bottles. The red liquid in the glass bottles seemed to have some kind of "activity" preservation properties, so these hearts were still beating slightly.

[Heart] is the source of strength and the place in the body of a transcendent that contains the most transcendent energy and vitality. A high-quality heart is enough to match hundreds of other organs of average quality.

At this moment, when these believers took out the offerings they brought from their backpacks, they found that there were thousands of hearts of human extraordinary beings gathered in this underground tomb.

This is just a starting point.

If all 13 points have this number of sacrifices, it means that the lives of tens of thousands of extraordinary people will be needed as "ignition fuel", and this is only the starting ceremony of this huge formation. Its real fuel is all the creatures covered by the formation. Now, tens of thousands of human extraordinary people are just sporadic flames at the moment of ignition.

But this is not the end. After all the organs were placed in the designated positions, hundreds of high-level believers knelt down in the formation. Then the leading man took the lead and sang a string of obscure languages, like some kind of spell, or like a poem.

Afterwards, the believers who were kneeling behind him also spoke in unison. Their neat and solemn voices echoed in the not-so-small tomb. Their voices grew louder and louder, as if they were calling for something. When the psalm recited by hundreds of people reached a certain chapter, finally, the formation on the ground began to emit a faint light, as if responding to their voices.

So, at this moment, the leading man showed an excited look on his face. He decisively raised his left hand and clenched it into a fist. Then he brought his right thumb close to his wrist and applied a little force. With quick and decisive movements, he directly scratched his wrist with his nails.

The wound was very deep, and a large amount of blood gushed out instantly and spilled onto the ground. The moment the blood splashed onto the ground, a faint light suddenly flashed.

The leading man was just the beginning. The hundreds of believers kneeling behind him didn't even need anyone's command or persuasion. They all raised their left hands and cut their wrists as if they had been prepared, letting the blood continue to flow.

A large amount of blood gushed out from the bodies of these believers, and it seemed that it was not their blood that was flowing, but some kind of fuel necessary to activate the formation.

The sacrifices were not only the thousands of hearts they brought, but also themselves. However, no believer would question or evade this. In their view, this was not a sacrifice of life, but a glorious and great mission, a way to contribute to the Lord and return to the Lord's arms. Being chosen to become an indispensable part of this plan was the supreme honor of being a believer!

In this almost insane atmosphere, even though their blood was greedily sucked away by the formation the moment it came into contact with it, even though their faces as believers possessed strong physiques and were becoming increasingly pale, and even some of them were losing consciousness and falling to the ground one after another, not a single believer showed any fear.

The formation will burn their blood, bodies, and even souls. When everything here turns to nothingness, the first engine of destruction will be ignited.

It is said that animals will sense the impending huge natural disaster and give early warning. Although the disaster the Federation is facing now is not a natural disaster, this more ominous atmosphere than a natural disaster seems to make some animals close to nature feel uneasy.

So, people saw a rather abnormal scene: countless birds soared into the sky, flapping their wings restlessly, trying to stay away from the ground; the originally gentle domestic dogs suddenly became restless and barked incessantly; countless insects that had been hiding underground suddenly emerged at this time; even rats crawled out of the sewers and ran around on the streets.

When a beam of red light shot up from a remote hilltop and the sirens that echoed throughout the federation pierced the sky, people finally realized that disaster had struck.

Fortunately, the Federation was well prepared for this. It appeased the people immediately and headed to the place where the red light rose.

However, when they arrived, the place was already surrounded by red light. Any life that entered the range of the red light would become fuel and have its life and soul extracted as a sacrifice for the ritual.

The Federation tried many ways, but was unable to enter, or even interfere. They also tried to go deep underground, but the red light seemed to have no end.

Then the Federation finally realized that once this formation was activated, it could no longer be stopped.

Just by activating this formation, some abnormalities began to appear in the Federation. The temperature dropped, and the bright sunshine of the past seemed to be covered with a light shadow. People always had nightmares when they fell asleep, as if they had fallen into a sea of ​​blood.

The emotions of most ordinary people began to become irritable, and even the extraordinary people noticed that the extraordinary energy contained in the air was gradually decreasing. Instead, it was replaced by a restless factor absorbed in the air, or in other words, the extraordinary energy of the [Cup] attribute began to slowly spread throughout the federation.
