Chapter 25: Hell on Earth The tower is particularly solemn today.
The tower is particularly solemn today.
Sakori followed the high priest up the stairs step by step.
She walked up one flight of stairs after another, but the people on each floor were silent as if they didn't exist, guarding the tower without any expression.
Although it may seem a bit strange to say this, there really is a tower within the tower's sphere of influence.
This was the top floor of the kingdom's tallest building, a place Sakri had never been before.
Children always have this or that kind of curiosity. She lives in a tower, but cannot step out of it.
So she ran up and down the entire building, and today she finally had a clear view of the top floor that she was not allowed to go to.
Although perhaps this is where her soul is buried.
Sakeri looked up and saw the sunset was blood-red.
Several people on the top floor also looked at her with scrutiny and assessment.
Sakri had seen most of the people there, but she had no relationship with them.
To be precise, she has a bad relationship with most people in the tower.
After all, she was a big troublemaker who wanted to defect whenever she had free time, and she constantly added to the workload of this group of people.
In theory, the person who has the best relationship with her should be the head maid who is closest to her in life.
But ever since her first head maid was taken away for giving her a fruit without permission, she has never appeared again.
Sakori learned to distance herself from all the head maids thereafter and began to think about defecting.
Sakeri took a deep breath. She was a little nervous, probably because of the panic brought by being so close to death.
The hard spine of the book pressed against my soft belly, and a sense of security came over me.
At this moment, the high priest said solemnly: "Let's begin."
The offerings were placed in the center.
Several people stood in different positions in the tower.
Endless secret patterns flowed quietly on the top floor like a river of blood.
Sakori blinked and saw the high priest standing opposite her.
The sacrifice is facing the sun and the dusk, with a corner of starlight faintly visible behind it.

Wu Lie stood there like a statue.
In fact, all those guarding the tower were as silent as statues.
Everyone in this tower is actually part of the ceremony.
If Sakori is the main meal, then they are the dessert.
Wu Lie just waited like that until the sound of a human body falling to the ground was heard at the bottom of the tower.
His five senses are the most outstanding, far exceeding the upper limit of humans, and he can easily capture distant sounds from the sound of the wind.
That group of people had quietly dealt with all the guards downstairs. In a minute, the people on the second floor would notice something unusual and sound the alarm.
Coincidentally, Wu Lie was on the second floor.
He raised his eyes silently, and in front of him were all the investigators who were completely defenseless against him.
Investigators, as fragile as glassware.
…
Lin sneaked into the second floor. She thought she would count how many guards there were and where they were located.
But no.
The smell of blood was overwhelming, and the entire floor seemed like an abstract painter's creation site.
Large, unclear bloodstains were splattered on the walls, and on the huge glass windows, parts of human organs slid down the window grilles, leaving long bloodstains.
The ground was so sticky that it was almost impossible to walk on, and the corpses piled up in a red depression.
Like a crimson swamp, it chooses its prey.
The only person standing stands out.
Still an acquaintance.
Lin held the scimitar in her backhand, and the blade reflected some excited fighting spirit.
She hadn't tried yet to see who was stronger, her or this monster, after being amplified by the tree roots.
Wu Lie glanced at her without reacting, then turned and walked upstairs.
Gone?
Lin frowned and even walked away with her back to him. She was a little too confident.
But she couldn't help but look at the floor. The bodies of investigators were scattered all over the floor. Everyone was dead. How could the news of the successful infiltration be concealed for a few more minutes?
This is the most ideal situation they envisioned.
But this situation does not include the rebellion of the opposing guard commander.
Lin hesitated briefly, wondering whether this was a trap or Wu Lie had truly defected.
No, the Tower intended to use this group of people to satisfy the appetite of the gods. Killing a large number of snacks to lure the enemy deeper is not in the interest of the Tower.
She sent a message to the people downstairs.
[A commander betrayed the tower for unknown reasons and killed all the guards on the second floor.]
No matter how shocking the group message was, Lin followed him up to the third floor.
She rarely used her secret pattern equipment, and tried her best to hide all the sounds made by her movements.
She is responsible for everyone.
Wu Lie walked up to the third floor covered in blood.
A guard came over: "Sir——"
Soon, he lost the ability to continue speaking.
Because Witch Hunter has already grasped his throat.
…
When the rebels and the allied society rushed to the third floor, they witnessed a scene even more tragic than the second floor, which could be called hell on earth.
Lin was wiping the scimitar with the corpse's clothes in a pool of blood. When she saw them coming up, she raised her hand and pointed at the ceiling.
"He's up again."
Lin reasonably suspected that even if they had not come today, this man would have killed his way through the entire tower until he reached the top.
Everyone looked at each other in silence.
Shanju touched his chin and asked sincerely, "What's wrong with him?"

"You have to let me send them a message!" President Lu was rarely angry.
The black cat chased its tail and took the time to tease the white deer.
"What news has to be released now?"
It teaches us profoundly that "what you gain must be lost."
"If you want to destroy the spire's ritual patterns, you'll have to stay in this environment. Unstable signals are normal."
Forget it, Bai Lu has let it go.
Although it did not tell the students that Wu Lie was the accomplice, it believed that the two parties would be able to find out when they met.
……Bar.
No, I'm still very nervous. Without it watching over those students, I don't know what will happen to them.
President Lu sighed.
Wu Lie is half-mute, and Lin is almost the same. We can only hope that others can actively communicate with Wu Lie.
The black cat ignored it and played with its tail.
It didn't need anything to divert its attention, as it was worried that it would pounce on the god's corpse.
Using the corpses of gods as materials to form the entire secret pattern formation is also a new path that Bai Lu has explored over the past hundred years. It began to operate with the blessing of the black cat.
Today is the first day of operation.
The black cat began to roll over.
"When will you finish?"
It came here to ensure the safety of Bai Lu's life. If the bet had not been so tempting, it would still be looking at the Li'an sculpture.
As a result, I almost drooled when I got here.
The black cat rolled over and stared at the god's corpse.
It didn't know what Li'an wanted, but even if the corpse of a god was not what he wanted, it could make him happy for a while, right?
Even if used as handmade materials, they are all top-notch materials.
President Deer didn't know what the black cat was thinking, so he just pointed at the black cat from a distance.
"You're drooling."
The black cat nudged the fabric casually.
"——That's my student's cloak! Don't rub it!"
whispering sound.
The black cat bared its teeth.
Bai Lu had no choice but to feel sorry for the innocent Cloak in his heart.
On the bright side, this isn't the saliva of an ordinary person, it's the saliva of a god—no, even so, it's still too disgusting.
The formation suddenly activated, and the gilded secret pattern slowly unfolded around the god's corpse.
President Lu focused his attention.
Very far away.
The secret pattern formation at the top of the tower was activated at the same time.
