Chapter 279 Good evening, Mr. Frontal
The last door opened.
Vic finally saw the sacrificial site that had been haunting him like a nightmare for half a month, and then he couldn't help but open his mouth wide: "This is..."
In front of me is an extremely magnificent building located in the valley.
It looks like a well-made clock, but also like an intricate maze, filled with strange buildings, stone tablets, and various hunter statues.
These things were distributed in every corner of this huge maze, and they couldn't see them all at once.
"This is the sacrificial site..." Ivana on the side couldn't help but sigh, her voice trembling with surprise.
Bai Wei glanced at her and said with a smile: "In other words, you have been waiting here for decades, but this is your first time here? Or do you rely on us?"
Ivana's face flushed immediately. She wanted to defend herself, but she couldn't find a reason. After a long while, she could only say: "I'm a teenager, not in my teens! I'm not that old!"
"That's right." Bai Wei touched the back of Ivana's head, "After all, he's just a little kid."
Ivana was a little unhappy: “You sound like you’re very big.”
"Not that big, right?" Bai Wei smiled faintly. "Even if your grandmother were still alive, I would still call her a little devil."
Ivana paused.
After teasing the little saint for a while, Bai Wei heard Vic's voice again: "Is this the sacrificial site? I mean... all of them?"
No wonder Vic was surprised.
Because the sacrificial site covers an area of tens of thousands of acres and you can't see the end at a glance, it is obviously different from Vic's imagination of "the truth is revealed when you open the door."
"Yes, all of them." Ivana nodded. Although she had never been here before, her grandmother must have told her the general situation here, so she stood up again and fulfilled her duties as a saint. "The sacrificial site is the residence of the God of Senluo in the human world, so it must be more imposing."
"Well, isn't the God of Senluo already dead?"
"So this is already a morgue." Bai Wei said with a smile.
Ivana glared at Bai Wei fiercely.
What a hateful heretic, blaspheming her god here every day... But she had no way to do anything, after all, her own god was indeed dead.
Vic was not interested in what happened to the God of Senluo. He was more concerned about what to do next. After all, this sacrificial site was really too large.
"That depends on you."
"ah?"
Ivana said: "This is the residence of the God of Senluo in the human world. It is also the place where He bestows power and inheritance on hunters. However, what kind of power to be bestowed is not chosen by Him, but by the hunters. So wherever the hunter prays, He will bestow that kind of power."
Vic still didn't understand, but Bai Wei helped Ivana explain: "In other words, different areas of the sacrificial site correspond to different powers, or authority, of the God of Senluo, is that right?"
Yvina nodded.
Vic scratched his head and said, "I don't quite understand."
"Well...then follow me." After observing carefully, Ivana pointed to the hunter statue closest to them, "Let's go there."
From their perspective, the hunter statue was not far from them, and Ivina felt that they should be able to reach it in a few minutes.
But when they actually entered the sacrificial site, they understood what it meant to "see the mountain and run the dead horse".
Although they didn't run to death, it took them more than half an hour to reach the statue, which seemed to only take a few minutes. This made Vic wonder how long it would take to complete the whole walk.
"We're here." Ivana came to the statue, looked at the strange characters under the statue, and then slowly read out, "This is... blood attraction."
Blood lead?
Vic looked up at the statue.
The hunter in the statue was in a fighting posture, but what surrounded his hands was not weapons, but blood.
The blood floated beside the hunter like a pulled ribbon, with flames at the end of the blood.
Devour fire with blood.
Vic suddenly remembered something and said excitedly: "Ryan! This is Ryan's ability!"
"Lian?" Ivana still remembered the name. "Are you talking about the old hunter you met before?"
Vic nodded repeatedly: "He can ignite his own blood. I saw it with my own eyes."
"That's it." Ivana also nodded. "This is Blood Attraction, and it is also the easiest ability for hunters to obtain. As long as you come under this statue and pray to the God of Senluo, you can get this ability."
As Ivana spoke, she made a prayer gesture towards the statue, but soon let go of her hand.
"But I'm not a hunter, so I can't gain this power." She looked at Vic, "Do you want to try?"
"Well, what would happen if we tried it?"
"You will gain this power," Yvina said, "but the price is that you may not be able to gain other powers."
"why is that?"
"Because it is impossible for a mortal body to bear too much power of gods." Ivana explained succinctly.
"Is that so? But I should have this power too. After all, I inherited Mr. Ryan's blood." Vic looked at his hands, feeling a little distressed. "But I don't know how to use it. Mr. Ryan never told me."
“Uh…” Ivana was also in a dilemma. “I don’t know about that. My grandmother never told me what to do in this situation.”
Vic felt a little frustrated. After all, he had become a hunter, but he couldn't use his hunter's abilities.
But this frustration did not last long, after all, Vic had not forgotten why he was here.
But he soon became confused because this was the sacrificial site.
What is the truth?
Where is Ade?
He still couldn't remember anything, and finally he looked to Bai Wei for help, as if in his heart, Bai Wei could help him solve all his problems.
But this time Bai Wei's answer was: "You have already arrived. It is up to you to find the answer next."
Vic was stunned: "Myself?"
"Yes, the truth is here, isn't it?" Bai Wei said, "I can't help you with this last step."
"But..." Vic suddenly felt flustered, "I haven't remembered anything yet."
"Then think about it." Bai Wei tapped his temple with his finger. "Those things are in your brain. Think about it carefully. You came here half a month ago, what happened, what decision you made, and where you went in the end."
"I..." Vic opened his mouth, but still didn't know what to do.
But Bai Wei did not give any more answers, but looked at Ivana.
"Miss Saint, you will lead her to find the next answer."
Ivana was also stunned: “Me?”
"Yes." Bai Wei said with a smile, "This is the place where your grandmother devoted her life. Don't you want to know what it looks like?"
"I know."
"I mean, see it with your own eyes."
Ivana pursed her lips, and a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes.
Obviously, Bai Wei's words touched her heart.
Yes, this is what the place where my grandmother has been guarding looks like.
She really wanted to know.
But Ivana was not as stunned as Vic. She heard something from Bai Wei's words and immediately asked, "Aren't you going to act with us?"
After Ivana's reminder, Vic also reacted and immediately looked at Bai Wei.
"Well, I'm a step late." Bai Wei said, "You go first."
"…It doesn't look like you're going to poop."
Bai Wei smiled: "You may think so."
For some reason, Vic became even more panicked: "Is it because of the enemy? I can stay and help you, or wait for you in front!"
A strange feeling suddenly arose in Vic's heart, feeling that this separation was different from the previous ones.
It seems difficult to meet again.
"Vic." Bai Wei said calmly, "Ade is still waiting for you in front, isn't he?"
Vic's expression froze.
"Don't worry, I will catch up with you soon." Bai Wei said with a smile, "very soon."
…
Vic and Yvina leave.
Bai Wei quietly watched their backs disappear from his sight. During this time, Vic kept looking back at him, his eyes full of reluctance.
"This kid must have sensed something." Bai Wei muttered to himself, "Otherwise he wouldn't have such a reaction. Tsk tsk tsk, he's suddenly become sharp after being dull for so long."
Bai Wei paused, revealing a distressed expression, while thinking in his mind.
Shouldn't we have said goodbye properly just now?
After all, if Bai Wei's plan went right,
This should be the last time they meet.
Bai Wei looked up at the sky that was rapidly becoming darker as the sun set, and said softly, "Goodbye, Vic."
Vic was too far away to hear his words, and the only answer he got was the gradually increasing sound of the wind.
Bai Wei was waiting in the wind, like a statue.
It was not known how long had passed before he suddenly turned his head and looked with a smile at the dark shadow that had appeared behind him at some point.
"Good evening."
Bai Wei said with a chuckle.
"Mr. Front Teeth."
…
"The Temple of Trust."
Fig looked at the temple in front of him, an indescribable smile appearing on his lips.
"First comes courage, then trust. This God of Senluo is really as restless as the rumors say."
At this moment, Rhine's team has arrived at the Hall of Trust.
According to their information, they only need to pass through this temple to reach Senluo's sacrificial site.
That place that was once the residence of God is now the tomb of God.
But no matter what, that is the domain of the Outer Gods.
And he, Figg, Archbishop of the Rhine, will come as a conqueror.
There is no doubt that this will be the greatest honor he has ever received, and it will be enough to make him go down in history.
Thinking of this, Fig felt very happy.
At this time, the subordinate asked in confusion: "My Lord Bishop, I don't understand. The God of Senluo advocates courage and trust, so why is he labeled as an evil god?"
This was originally a secret, but Fig, who was in a good mood, did not hesitate to give his answer.
"Simply because the courage and trust He advocated were for one thing only."
"One thing?"
"Yes." Fig nodded slightly, "That is rebirth."
"You mean the God of Senluo wants to be reborn?"
“Yes, but the goal of rebirth is not Himself.”
The subordinate was slightly stunned: "If it's not Him? Then who is it?"
Fig stopped, looked up at the Senluo statue in front of him, and said softly.
"Visas."
…
"So where do we go?"
Although they left Bai Wei, Ivana and Vic still didn't know where to go.
Especially Ivina, she grew up here since she was a child, and the meaning of her existence is to guard the last territory of the God of Senluo, but when she really arrived here, she was at a loss and could only look at Vic.
But Vic didn't know either. His expression was dazed, as if he still hadn't gotten over the separation from Bai Wei. Ivina called his name several times before he raised his head belatedly.
"I don't know either." Vic whispered, "Father Uru said that Ade is waiting for me up ahead, but..."
He looked at the several forks in the road ahead and felt unfamiliar.
"I didn't smell it, and I didn't remember anything." He said, "If I didn't remember anything and didn't find anything, would Father Uru be disappointed in me?"
Yvina looked at the dazed Vic, and suddenly she remembered the duties of a saint that her grandmother had told her about long ago.
That is to guide the confused hunter on the way forward.
At that time, Ivina could never understand the significance of this responsibility. If it was just to give directions, wouldn't it be the same to put two signs at the intersection?
Why do we have to have them?
But at this time Ivana understood, she walked forward and gently grabbed Vic's slightly trembling hand.
"Don't worry, we'll take it slow." Her voice was gentle, like the spring breeze blowing over the lake. "You'll always remember it. Come... look at this."
Yvina pulled Vic down and squatted down, picked up a branch, and wrote and drew on the ground.
"I can't remember all the hunter statues in the sacrificial field. I only know a few of them." Ivana whispered, "But half a month ago, I told you the locations of these statues, so you may have been to these places. You have been to the fire-starting statue before, and you can rule it out if you can't remember anything. The only thing left is..."
"Possessing the most powerful destructive power, the technique that can control thunder - Thunder Order."
"A technique that can transform one's own blood into the best medicine and cure all injuries and diseases - blood therapy."
"A technique for infinitely enhancing your senses - touch."
"And... there is a kind of resonance that almost no hunters choose, which can communicate with the hounds' minds."
Vic's pupils narrowed slightly.
"Do you know where we are going? Ade."
He remembered.
