Chapter 90 90. A sinister plan
Even though the old woman who was the temporary leader had just died tragically in front of many fanatical believers, in the face of the saint's comfort and orders, these believers gradually calmed down and chose to obey Yu Shenwei's instructions.
After all, in their eyes, Huo Ze is a traitor and his words do not need to be listened to, but the saint is not.
The death of their own kind did not arouse any sympathy in them at all. The reason they were angered by the death of the deacon was simply because the deacon was their leader. Having lost their leader, they would naturally panic. Now that a new leader had stood up, they accepted it immediately.
Looking at this scene, Xu Zhi became even more certain that these believers were really mentally ill.
After comforting the believers present, Xu Zhi asked with some confusion, "Isn't there another high-level believer? Why can't I see him?"
Huo Ze, who thought he had won, quickly replied, "He's dead. He was also one of the sacrifices. His blood and life were used to prepare for the ceremony."
Originally, Huo Ze would have been the next one, but he ran away.
"I see."
Xu Zhi nodded: "Then stop wasting time and start the ceremony now, shall we?"
Hearing this, Huo Ze's face suddenly showed some doubt: "Ms. Xu, it's like this."
"The deacons themselves were not particularly confident in this ritual because our conditions were too simple and the quality of the offerings was not very high.
He was clearly worried about the failure of the ceremony.
Xu Zhi tilted his head and looked at him: "You don't want to go? Then you can find someone else."
"No, no, no!" Huo Ze quickly denied it.
Seeing Xu Zhiding was about to start the ceremony, he gritted his teeth and said, "Of course I'm willing to go."
The worst that can happen is a gamble.
Xu Zhi felt that Huo Ze was somewhat demented. This was a fatal matter. He could actually be overwhelmed by power. Was he a fanatic?
During the conversation, Huo Ze did not take the saint who now held the power of speech seriously at all. In his eyes, the saint would definitely become a sacrifice.
This is common sense that all believers know, and no one would suddenly doubt that common sense is wrong.
Fanatics don't care about "human rights".
Huo Ze walked towards the center of the ceremony, leaning on a branch, and excitedly introduced it to Xu Zhi, "Actually, there are ritual formations carved all around here. When activated, it will be a huge formation with a radius of about 300 meters. A lot of extraordinary blood was used to draw it."
At this point, he suddenly realized that Xu Zhi was also a Transcendent, so he paused for a moment, and when he was sure that she didn't show any displeasure and scolded her, he breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "The Saint's organs have also been placed in a special container at the center of the formation, waiting for the ceremony to start..."
Having said that, Huo Ze suddenly paused, then realized that he was a little too excited and said too much.
He wanted to change the subject, but unexpectedly, Yu Shenwei beside him suddenly said, "The ritual has begun. Except for the person standing at the center of the formation, everyone else within the ritual range will have their flesh and soul extracted. So, Miss Xu, it would be best if you leave here."
Huo Ze's expression turned ugly in an instant. He turned around and "stared" at Yu Shenwei with an expression of almost hatred, not understanding why she suddenly said this to Xu Zhi!
However, his empty eye sockets could not express his emotions at the moment.
He only hated that the matter he had worked so hard to conceal for so long was revealed so easily. He could obviously use this ritual to kill Xu Zhi right away!
After Yu Shenwei did this, his mind went blank.
She didn't understand why she had to say this. Logically, she should have pretended not to know and let Xu Zhi help her stand at the center of the formation. After obtaining all the benefits, she also got rid of Xu Zhi and Huo Ze.
But she said this involuntarily and subconsciously at that time.
The atmosphere froze instantly, and the steps of several people forward involuntarily paused until Xu Zhi sneered.
"That's a good plan."
However, even if Yu Shenwei didn't tell her, Xu Zhi didn't plan to stay in the formation. She just wanted to take a look. After all, she had foresight and noticed something was wrong when the ceremony on the top floor started. Now it was even more impossible for her to stay in there without any defense.
Xu Zhi was not surprised by Huo Ze's sinister plan.
She was not naive enough to think that they would become friends just by spending some time together. Enemies would always be enemies, and they might not even be the same species now.
Xu Zhi didn't even feel angry about this.
After all, in her eyes, Huo Ze was a man who was doomed to die from the beginning to the end, and his resistance before death was just such a naive plan, and whether it would succeed depended entirely on luck, because he didn't even have the ability to keep Xu Zhi in this formation.
It's really funny.
"Why are you so nervous?" Xu Zhi looked at the two of them with a smile.
"Stop being in a daze and hurry up. I can't wait to see this ceremony."
Although the tone was calm with a smile, Huo Ze got goosebumps all over his body. This feeling was terrible, very terrible. Even his excitement about becoming the archbishop disappeared.
Xu Zhi's strange attitude was like a mountain pressing on his shoulders. Even his steps became heavy, and he was thinking with every step: Why?
Why is she so nonchalant and doesn't even pursue the matter?
Does she have any plans?
What does she mean?
Her tone at the moment was relaxed and smiling, was there also this expression on her face?
I can't figure it out.
But no matter what, the fact that Xu Zhi did not kill him directly when the matter was exposed was far beyond Huo Ze's expectations. The feeling of escaping death made him feel his heart beating faster.
Several people came to the center of the ritual formation, which was the center of the formation. It was an open-air basketball court in a residential area.
In addition to the strange patterns carved on the ground with the blood of extraordinary people, there were also some materials that Xu Zhi had never seen before, mutant animals tied up with symbols painted on their bodies, and glass jars placed in several corners of the center of the formation.
I think that was the organ that was dug out from Yu Shenwei's body.
"Are the conditions so shabby?" Xu Zhi said with a hint of disdain.
However, given the current situation in Yuncheng, it is probably just a dream to want to make it exquisite and gorgeous.
"Okay." She said after walking around the basketball team, "Get ready to start. I'm going to leave now."
Huo Ze felt a little regretful when he heard this, but it was already surprising that Xu Zhi was willing to let him continue, so he naturally didn't dare to say anything more.
Before leaving, Huo Ze, who had no eyes, did not see that Xu Zhi turned his head and looked at Yu Shenwei meaningfully.
Yu Shenwei lowered his head.
