Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 1091 - 1092: Nierlat’s Plot
Chapter 1091: Chapter 1092: Nierlat’s Plot
"Yo, the effect is unexpectedly good."
Feng Yuan looked at Qi Chen with some surprise, glanced at himself in the fitting mirror, and then Qi Chen asked Dou Yanlan,
"How do you feel?"
The crunching sound of eating dog food did not stop the conversation between Qi Chen and Dou Yanlan. Feng Yuan simply ignored them and took Xiao Ji for a walk nearby, knowing that they would call him once they had chosen their outfits.
"Do you really intend to wage a full-scale war against me?"
The massive figure of Nierlat appeared in the sky, gazing down at the shattered city below, a city whose style was vastly different from that of Great Xia, now reduced to ruins. Thick smoke billowed from every corner of the city, and the exits were crowded with people trying to escape the hellish transformation of their city.
The city’s guards, armed with weapons, commanded their Spirit Beasts trying to eliminate the terrifying shadows attacking the city. However, the shadows eerily Devoured their attacks. Dark shadowy claws dragged people into the darkness; even the appearance of Nierlat in the sky could not bring them any joy. This terrifying shadow had become an unforgettable Nightmare.
Old Wei emerged from the shadows, his gaze cold as he looked at Nierlat saying,
"You know very well what you have done. Do you think all your schemes are unknown to others?"
"I thought our ideologies were similar, but, it turns out you are just the same."
Nierlat stared at Old Wei emotionlessly, its words flat as Old Wei chuckled lightly,
"I would not dream of using the Ennir’s Sacrifice to achieve my goals, especially since it has been confirmed as utterly meaningless."
"You don’t understand! How could you understand! Humans! How could you possibly understand my thoughts!"
Nierlat roared angrily as if provoked, Old Wei scoffed,
"I don’t understand? You are like a parent who spoils their child too much. Do you even know what you are doing?"
"You don’t understand, and you don’t know the consequences of your actions. Things are different now; the consequences of your actions are not the same as before."
Old Wei glanced at Nierlat, then turned and walked into the shadows. But before completely disappearing into the shadows, Old Wei lowered his voice,
"This is just a warning. Don’t do anything too extreme; I don’t want to lose another old friend."
In the shadows, something seemed to watch Nierlat, but after a long time, the shadows slowly faded, leaving only rubble. In the sky, Nierlat remained silent, lost in thought.
However, both Old Wei and Nierlat failed to notice the fleeting figure of the Little Crocodile. Although the entity within the shadow noticed it, it did not make a sound.
"What is Ennir’s Sacrifice?"
"Why do you ask? It’s useless to you and also meaningless."
Feng Yuan looked at Agunas with surprise, not quite understanding what Agunas was trying to do by suddenly asking this question. Meanwhile, Veronia seemed confused as she recalled,
"I seem to have heard of this ritual, but wasn’t it abolished? It shouldn’t be practiced anymore."
"You know about it?"
Agunas looked at Veronia in surprise, wondering how she had heard of something he could not find in any scriptures. Glancing at Agunas, Veronia said annoyedly,
"I’ve heard of it, but I don’t really know what it is. Why are you asking about this? If you dare do anything with it, he’ll take care of you."
"What does it have to do with me? It’s Eclipse’s business."
Feng Yuan said innocently, while Xiao Ji and Kong Qing looked at Feng Yuan and Agunas confused, not understanding their conversation.
"Ennir’s Sacrifice, a ritual of sacrificing multitudes to a tyrant to gain supreme power, belongs to rituals that are now banned. Of course, whether it can still be successful is also unclear, since the humans who knew about it were completely eradicated."
Lorna’s cool voice sounded from behind Agunas. Feng Yuan waved at Lorna saying,
"Hi~ didn’t expect to see you shopping here?"
Glancing at Feng Yuan, Lorna turned her head and said
"Just a prophecy that you would come here, that’s all."
Feng Yuan gave an awkward smile, scratched his head puzzledly, and looked at Lorna. He didn’t understand the situation; it seemed he was being singled out? Unlike Xiao Ji and the others, Lorna’s situation seemed special; at least, he was unclear about her origins and motives for approaching him.
"Sacrificing all living beings?"
Agunas frowned and asked Lorna, with Veronia glancing at Agunas and saying,
"Of course, it was originally a ritual to pray to the heavens, modified into a bizarre ritual exchanging lives for power to some strange entity. However, it seems that the ritual was not originally meant to be that way; anyway, it was not a good thing."
"Nierlat intends to use that ritual!"
Agunas spoke with a grim face, suppressing his anger. Feng Yuan paused as if he heard a funny joke and looked at Agunas with a strange gaze, saying,
"Really? Is it that foolish?"
"Foolish?"
Agunas looked at Feng Yuan, not quite understanding what he meant. With a sneer, Feng Yuan explained,
"Yes, the object of Enniel’s Sacrifice ritual is a brutal, dark will, but that entity no longer exists. What now governs the corresponding rules are Eclipse and Xilnais. Activating that broken ritual means facing them directly, and they are not the brutal dark will. Performing this in front of them, aren’t they asking for trouble?"
Although they view the lives of the real world as trivial, that’s no reason to provoke them—sacrificing all beings to summon them? They might just hit you with a fatal blow the moment they appear.
"There’s such a thing?"
Agunas was stunned, not having expected this situation. So, even without Old Wei’s warning, it couldn’t have been successful?
"By the way, where did you even learn about this thing? I remember it’s not a recorded entity. Nierlat shouldn’t have known about it."
Feng Yuan looked at Agunas curiously. This thing didn’t seem to exist in any of the real-world manuscripts, and its period of appearance and disappearance didn’t align with Agunas’s era; he should not have known about it.
Veronia spoke with an inexplicable expression,
"No wonder it disappeared so cleanly. So, was it that stinking lizard’s doing?"
No need to ask, it was probably those beings who didn’t know about the changes in the ritual, directly sacrificing and thereby summoning the two Guardian Gods. Seeing their actions, it would have been strange if they weren’t destroyed; they utterly despise and even abhor the desecration of life.
"Maybe, I’m not sure, it’s possible that Lorraine Tower also took action. After all, if this thing leaked out, there would always be fools messing around."
Shaking his head, Feng Yuan said, unable to know exactly how it disappeared. In his view, such a fatally flawed thing disappearing into the river of time was but normal.
"It’s Nierlat; Nierlat plans to activate the Enniel’s Sacrifice."
Although he understood from Feng Yuan’s explanation that even if Nierlat succeeded, it would only summon the two Guardian Gods, Agunas still couldn’t accept Nierlat’s actions. Feng Yuan looked at Agunas surprised and said,
"How do you know? And how do you know it’s Enniel’s Sacrifice?"
Seeing Feng Yuan look at him, Veronia shook her head, saying, freewēbnoveℓ.com
"It hasn’t been mentioned in the Divine Beasts’ intelligence network; I don’t know how it found out."
"It was Old Wei who mentioned it, and he didn’t deny it."
Agunas flicked its tail calmly as if pondering something, and Feng Yuan looked at Agunas a bit perplexed, then realizing something, tapped Agunas’s head saying,
"You didn’t eavesdrop, did you? Little Crocodile, didn’t expect you’d do such a thing."
Glancing at Feng Yuan, Agunas answered in annoyance,
"It was because Old Wei suddenly attacked Xingchan’s city, and I wasn’t sure if they would fight; of course, I had to go check the situation."
Looking at Agunas, Feng Yuan had a strange expression; he was well aware that if a fight really broke out, Agunas was definitely not there to mediate, but might instead seize the opportunity to stab Nierlat in the back since it was quite concerned about Nierlat’s border schemes.
