Chapter 454: Evil God Ritual - The Boathouse

On the vast expanse of sand by the sea, countless sacrifices ran as hard as they could, running so hard that blood flowed from their seven orifices, so hard that their airways felt like they were burning, so hard that their bodies sounded the alarm, and they never stopped.

The sacrifices looked up at the beautiful moon and fireworks in the sky, a trance-like, relieved smile on their bleeding mouths.

Once they get out of here, they will be completely free.

Outside, a better world where there is no more pain awaits them!

In the front, the maid of the Mifune family, who was standing on the fire station, was indifferently monitoring the fleeing sacrifices, and picked up the phone: "Mifune-sama, the sacrifices have escaped from Luming County, should we release their [anchors] to them now?"

"Devolve." Gifune's voice came over the phone, "Take care not to let them touch the old offerings that are running out now, the lords of the seven families are hunting now, don't let them spoil the fun."

This servant glanced back up the hill when he heard the seven great families.

From a distance, only a little fire could be seen at the shrine, and instead of informing the fire, the maid standing on the fire platform smiled a little: "After tonight, the Bei Yuan family will be completely removed from the Eight Families, right?"

Mifune smiled along, "I will see that Bei Yuan's house is burned to the ground."

"Lord Gifune ...... does not have to attend the hunt for the old sacrifice tonight?" The servant asked rhetorically, slightly hesitantly.

"No need." Mikoto hooked his mouth, "Because I already have the most valuable sacrifice."

"Tonight I will sacrifice him to the evil gods."

"Phew - bang - !!!"

A huge firework rose from the back of the lookout and exploded at the highest point of the hill, and under the sudden burst of colourful light, you could see the men of the house of Ofuna on the top of the hill, weapons in hand, walking warily from the top down to God Xiang, while the Bei Yuan family, who had been rounded up at the bottom of the hill, ran up the hill in fear.

"It's time to enter the shrine." The man at the head of the group entering the Gifune family turned to those behind him and barked sternly, "Tighten your skins and cover your eyes."

"If anyone accidentally catches a glimpse of that corpse and turns into a monster, don't say I didn't warn you in advance!"

"Yes!"

The man from the Gifune family was trained to pull a thick black cloth from his pocket, then raised his hand and blindfolded his eyes as he stepped into the shrine's territory.

The man at the head took a deep breath, "Lord Gifune says he has sent the sacrifice Bai six outside the shrine, all we have to do is grab the sacrifice Bai six, bring him in and sacrifice him, and tonight's mission will be complete."

"Be quick, by the time the next Funakya night is done with the sacrifice, the other lords will be bringing up old sacrifices they've hunted, and we need to finish the sacrifice Bai six before then!"

The path at the bottom of the hill.

"Quickly!" The servants shuddered and exclaimed, " Ladies and lords of the House of Bei Yuan, please tear off your clothes and cover your eyes!"

"We're almost to the shrine!"

"Please never open your eyes, if you see the evil gods in the shrine, you will either become a sacrifice and go mad and kill yourself, or you will become a monster and be hunted!"

The men on the hill walked vigilantly with their feet probing from side to side, while those at the bottom crawled along with staggering feet, all of them approaching the shrine with their eyes tightly closed and a look of fear and panic on their faces.

And Bai six, standing in front of the shrine with his hands behind his back, approached little by little towards Bai Liu, his eyebrows arched in a smile, "What an interesting scene."

"Everyone is stumbling, with their eyes closed, towards the evil gods they worship daily but fear so much for their own desires."

The moment Bai Liu's words fell, the whip behind his back lashed out and swept towards Bai Liu.

Bai Liu raised his hand to block, and what appeared in his hand was a short dagger, which plunged into the loop of the bone whip and was struck inwards by Bai Liu, spinning around and down the whip, and Bai six was forced to let go of the whip.

He takes a half step back, the whip in his hand disappears, and when he raises his hand again the whip in his hand reappears, and Bai six sweeps the end of the whip towards Bai Liu, turning it as he sweeps over, the bone spurs unfolding with a swish.

Bai Liu's face was silent as he turned his dagger into a monkey's claw and gripped Bai six's long bone spike whip with his bare hand and yanked it towards him.

In the process of falling, the bone whip in Bai six's hand disappears again, and he turns and dodges back to avoid the deadly movement of Bai Liu's monkey claws coming at his neck, then spins around again with the long whip appearing at his waist and flings it at Bai Liu's face.

Bai Liu sidestepped and the monkey's claws scratched Bai six's shoulders, leaving four shocking scratches.

Bai six covered his instantly red stained shoulder and stepped back, he looked up at Bai Liu across the room and suddenly smiled, "Should I really say, not bad for [me] who can make an evil god suffer to the point of walking out of the temple?"

"You're a lot better than me."

Bai Liu looked at the wounded Bai six with dark Buming eyes: "Is this your first time playing a copy of the game?"

"Rolling out so soon." Bai six smirked, "The Evil Ritual - Boathouse was indeed my first copy, but I'm curious, I shouldn't look like a new player just now, how did you deduce that?"

Bai Liu just looked at Bai six flatly, he didn't answer Bai six's question positively, but his eyes dropped down to the bone whip in Bai six's hand, "If this is your first copy, then you won't be rewarded with props for not passing the game."

"This bone whip is where you got it from?"

"How about one for one?" Bai six smiled and looked at Bai Liu, "You answer my question and I'll answer yours."

"You have no skills, so it must be your first game." Bai Liu replied calmly and dryly, "My turn, how did the bone whip come about?"

Bai six hooked the corners of his mouth as he lifted it up and shook the black bone whip in his hand, "Isn't that the only way to get props in the game?"

"The first one is a bonus, and it's the second one that drops from killing monsters."

The smile on his face widened, "In my world line of the evil god festival, I got the key to enter the shrine map and also found the evil god npc."

"But I don't suffer when I face Him, so I can't awaken the evil god."

"But since this Evil NPC has a face that I dislike, He reminds me of a very annoying person I met in reality, and since this NPC won't wake up and I can't push the game progress, I was upset to take this sleeping Evil NPC and relive what I did to that person in reality. "

"So this bone whip fell out of the body of Jean Him."

Bai Liu seemed to understand something instantly, his expression was quiet, he slowly lifted his eyes over, looked straight at Bai six and asked rhetorically, word for word, "You cut him open and drew his spine out?"

"You could say that too." Bai six shrugged, "I was going to take some of the other stuff he dropped, but it was all too fragmented and didn't seem to be of much use, so I just left it somewhere and didn't ask for it."

"But he grew back, or refreshed, the next night, so it took me many days of dissecting to pick out this most complete one."

Bai six smilingly raised the bone whip in his hand and looked askance at Bai Liu: "How's that? Looks good, doesn't it?"

Xiaokui, who was standing by the side and did not dare to approach, took a glance at the bottom of the hill and with a solemn expression, turned his head to Bai Liu and suddenly spoke out, " Bai six! Bei Yuan's men are coming up!"

Aota also came scrambling down from the top of the hill, " Bai six, my lord, the men of the Gifune family are coming out of the shrine too!"

By the time Aota got to Bai Liu, his eyes dazzled into two circles as he looked back and forth between Bai Liu and Bai Liu several times in amazement, "Eh? How can there be two Bai six adults?

Xiaokui was speechless, "Is this guy's memory not fully integrated?"

Bai Liu stared straight across at Bai six, his tone as cold as ever: "Aota, take Beiyuan Xiaokui and her sister down the side path, the one I told you about, the one I sometimes take to the shrine."

Aota immediately snapped back, "Yes!"

"Over at the boathouse, the old and new offerings are fleeing." Bai Liu shifted his gaze slightly and swept Beiyuan Xiaokui with the tail of his eyes, " Beiyuan Xiaokui, your sister was contacted in by someone from Bei Yuan's family to try to lure you out, but you should be able to judge for yourself if she really wanted to save you or not, right? "

Xiaokui took a deep breath and clutched her sister's hand, "Mmm!"

"Your sister and you are safe." Bai Liu continued, "You will encounter many other sacrifices during the exodus, so if you want to save, use your sister as an interface and help them divert their escape path."

"That way they won't encounter the [anchor] that the Gosho family has set up for them."

Bai Liu raised his eyes and looked levelly at Beiyuan Xiaokui: "But the world is not as nice as the Bei Yuan family has taught you."

"In addition to these anchors, there are many, many others who want to deceive you and feed on your pain."

"It's a cruel world."

Beiyuan Xiaokui replied shakily, "I know."

Bai Liu hmmed calmly as he turned his head back to Bai six who was steadily backing away, trying to make his way to the shrine, and he lifted his whip nonchalantly, "Good to know."

"Next, then, learn to live for those who do not feed on your pain, but who will make you weep and suffer and weep and suffer for you."

"They're the kind of idiots you learn about in your textbooks that can give you the good life."

Xiaokui looked up in dismay as she watched Bai Liu's back as he chased after Bai six and heard his last words.

"Take Aota with you to escape."

Xiaokui's tears fell for some reason, and she choked back a sob as she replied, not knowing which question she was answering.

"I will."

"I will, Bai six teacher!"
