Chapter 364 Blood sacrifice ceremony
Listening to the words of the Great Magician Ian and looking at the Gate of Hell, Roger couldn't help but feel silent.
How profound is the devils and demons studying the power of space? In fact, it can be seen from their use of the gate of hell.
The casters all know that the devils and demons are full of good magic materials, and among them, the three most important ones are "horn", "heart" and "blood".
The horns of the devil and the demon are both symbols of their status and the source of their power. The heart is undoubtedly the source of vitality. The blood contains the power of the devil and the demons.
The devils and demons themselves are naturally not unclear about these things that even the magicians on the main plane know. Therefore, the devils and demons also have a very unique way of using their own "magic materials".
This method is blood sacrifice.
Want to gain more powerful power? OK! Let’s have a blood sacrifice!
Want to expand the teleportation limit of the Gate of Hell? OK! Let’s have a blood sacrifice!
Want to directly summon a powerful demon god or demon king? OK! Let’s have a blood sacrifice!
For the devils and demons, there is nothing that cannot be solved by a blood sacrifice. If so, then perform two blood sacrifices!
By performing a blood sacrifice ceremony with a large number of inferior devils or demons, the demon gods and demon kings who are superiors can easily gather a considerable amount of magic power. With this huge magic power, the demon gods and demon kings can easily accomplish many of what they want to do.
For example, forcibly solidify the gate of hell and increase the upper limit of the strength of the devil or demon that the gate of hell allows to pass through.
Therefore, the blood sacrifice ceremony that devils and demons know how to use is not a simple ceremony. This ritual full of blood and cruelty involves all aspects of the demons and demons.
It’s okay for the demons who rely on their instinct and inheritance from the demon bloodline. The reason why cunning devils can cause various storms on the main plane is largely due to the use of this evil ritual.
In contrast, the angels from the heavenly world's research on the power of space is obviously not as deep as the devils and demons, so the angels have to unite with the human race to jointly resist the invasion of the demons.
Although the angels are suspected of using the residents of the main plane as gun envoys, this is essentially a mutual benefit, so the major forces on the main plane have a friendly attitude towards these messengers of the gods.
Of course, what is the attitude in private is another matter.
Now, for the casters of the Nine Ring Tower and the Church of the Gods, what they have to do is actually not much different from what the devils and demons want to do. Both are actually solidifying the Gate of Hell. The difference is that the casters of the coalition want to lower the upper limit of the strength of the demons that the Gate of Hell can pass through, while the purpose of the demons is completely opposite.
However, the things that the demons can easily accomplish with one or two simple altars and a large number of blood sacrifices are a very difficult issue for the casters of the Nine Rings Tower and the Church of the Gods.
The magic power of several legendary magicians and the great masters, the casters of the Nine Rings Tower and the Church of the Gods barely stabilized the connection between the Gate of Hell and the main plane. Now, these casters have to continue to carry out more difficult tasks: forcibly lower the upper limit of the strength of the strong men that the Gate of Hell can pass through.
To achieve this goal, these spellcasters must weaken the strength of the Hell Gate, which has been strengthened by the demon Mephist, so that this space channel called "Hell Gate" becomes more fragile.
In this way, the more powerful the devils and demons enter the space channel, the more likely they are to cause the space channel to collapse, resulting in all the demons in the channel falling directly into the turbulent temporal and space flow.
Losing in the turbulence of time and space is definitely more terrifying than death.
However, even with the participation of several experienced great magicians and priests, this group of spellcasters who are already representative of the most advanced magical level in the Elia continent still cannot guarantee that they will be able to successfully complete this task.
What they can guarantee is that they will definitely do their best for it.
Comparing the demon clan's light weight, this is actually enough to reflect the huge gap between the demon clan's magic level and the main plane's magic level.
This naturally made the great magician Ian, who had always been very proud of the magic power of the Nine Ring Tower, feel a little sad.
"Before coming to hell, Magister Karuta and I were all confident in this trip." Footing the white beard, Magister Ian said with a wry smile, "After all, even the bloody, cruel and rude demons can do something, we all think that there is no reason for the Nine Rings Tower to be unable to do it."
"However, after the formal start of construction, everyone's faces became paler and paler." He shook his head with a wry smile. Master Ian said with a little shame, "Just just stabilizing the space channel has already made us waste too much energy. Therefore, when we try to reduce the intensity of the space channel, the upper limit of the strength that can pass through this space channel will also decrease accordingly. Even the most confident Magister Jiaruo is not sure of completing it."
"And for the demons, this kind of thing is actually just a matter of time..." As he said that, the bitter look on the face of the Great Magician Ian became heavier and heavier.
Looking at the history of the continent of Elia, every time the demons invade the main plane, they have never failed to expand the gate of Hell since history.
In other words, the Nine Ring Tower's research on space is at least thousands of years behind the demon clan!
This is definitely a number that can break up any research-oriented magician, and it also makes Roger, who is trying to comfort Ian's great magician, smile bitterly.
Noting that Roger also smiled bitterly, Master Ian comforted Roger in reverse: "Don't worry, no matter how much the price you have to pay, Master Jiaruo and others will definitely successfully complete the solidification of the Gate of Hell! I promise in the name of the Nine Rings Tower!"
Looking at the resolute Magister Ian, Roger couldn't help but nod obediently.
The great magician Ian suddenly remembered the purpose of Roger here, and couldn't help but say a little embarrassedly: "Ah! I'm really sorry, I'm a little far away. Let's hurry up and go to the magic circle. In addition to the last magic lock that you are responsible for, the other magic circles, Karuo Magi, and others have already portrayed them."
Finally, I remembered the important matter of affairs, the Great Magician Ian hurriedly took Roger to the position in front of the Gate of Hell. This position was the center point of the super-large magic array arranged by the Nine Rings Tower and the Church of the Gods.
At the center of this gate around Hell, there is still a large blank space. This blank space is just enough to portray three series of magic circles.
Roger nodded at the great magician Ian, then squatted down and began to portray the magic circle originating from the druid lineage. Although the druid lineage is also a spellcaster, it actually prefers professions like panacea. Whether it is melee battle, spell casting, stealth, or even picking up bows and arrows to shoot from afar, many older generation druids can all take one or two hands.
Because of his age, Roger was not very proficient in the abilities of various factions of the Druid. Most of the time being able to portray these magic circles smoothly was attributed to the careful teaching of the tree elder in the hero academy of the elves.
Because of this, Roger's movements of portraying magic runes seemed quite awkward, which made Master Ian frown.
The Great Magician Ian, who was watching, had no intention of stealing his master. After all, the magicians of the Nine Ring Tower and the Druids who believed in the way of nature have a very different understanding of magic, and there is no possibility of learning from each other. The Great Magician Ian, standing aside, was actually protecting Roger, who was carving the magic array wholeheartedly.
Of course, the great master Ian is actually still responsible for the task of promptly remediating when something goes wrong with Roger's portrayal.
However, Roger, who still maintains his demigod level strength, relied on his powerful strength to ensure that his portrayal movements were stable and accurate enough. Although Roger's portrayal speed was a bit slow due to his unfamiliar movements, he did not make any mistakes until Roger's portrayal was completed.
As elemental heroes, Keer and others are still in the Q version, but this does not prevent them from helping Roger. With the knowledge and experience from the elemental lord, Keer and others are able to optimize the magic circle portrayed by Roger, making the magic circle arranged by Roger run smoother.
This greatly reduced the difficulty of Roger's portrayal, allowing Roger to quickly complete these three series of magic circles at a speed far beyond the imagination of the Great Magician Ian.
Roger, who had arranged the serial magic circle based on the three magic puzzles, did not stop there. Instead, after thinking a little, he took out a few things from his arms in the surprised eyes of the great magician Ian.
A long sword, a branch, a bottle of water, a brazier and a bag of soil.
Thanks to Xuanwu's knowledge, Roger more or less learned some knowledge about Taoism and formations. Although it was only half a bucket of water, Roger believed that no one could crack the formation knowledge from the Chinese in another world on this Elia continent.
The formation that Roger wants to arrange is called the Five Elements Formation.
After all, it is a level of half a bucket of water, so Roger dares not act too chaotic. The formation he was preparing to set up was just to protect these three series of magic circles from being forcibly destroyed.
Then, under the nose of the great magician Ian, Roger seemed to casually place the sword, branches, water bottles, brazier and the pile of soil at the five points of the pentagram. Then, he made a few simple gestures, and the five things on the ground disappeared out of thin air.
The formation has been completed!
The great magician Ian suddenly widened his eyes and stared at the ground that had become blank. Because, at the moment the Five Elements Array was formed, the three series of magic arrays that Roger had portrayed earlier also disappeared.
Just as Roger had never carved any magic circles, the ground looked quite flat.
The curious great magician Ian immediately wanted to step forward, but was promptly stopped by Roger: "Wait!"
"Huh?" The great magician Ian stopped and looked at Roger with some confusion.
After a bitter smile, Roger explained: "After I set up the last magic array, this series of series of magic arrays have begun to run. If you walk forward, you will directly trigger the first problem."
By then, even Roger, who was responsible for setting up these magic circles, would have to take a lot of effort to rescue the trapped Master Ian.
Thinking of Roger's three "terrifying" problems, Master Ian's beard suddenly turned up, and then he barely suppressed the curiosity in his heart.
However, when he walked out of this super-large magic circle with Roger, the great magician Ian would look back from time to time and look at the place where Roger had previously arranged the magic circle, with the curiosity on his face being expressed in words.
Those who can become a legendary master have absolutely no doubt about their enthusiasm for magic.
Of course, the curiosity of the Great Master Ian is obviously impossible to satisfy. Roger, who only knows how to arrange these basic Taoist formations, knows the reason but doesn't know why, and he has no way to explain it to the Great Master Ian.
So, Roger grabbed the sleeve of the Great Magician Ian and dragged it out of the super-large magic array.
After Master Ian informed the staff of the Nine Ring Tower and the Gods that the magic circles under Roger had been arranged, the casters of these ages, who had been eye-catching, and then they all began to activate the entire magic circle with all their might, and put the final magic seal on the Gate of Hell.
It seemed that the last critical moment was coming, and the middle and low-level demons who were constantly rushing to the defense line became more and more crazy. In the queue of these demons, there were also scattered figures of high-level and top-level demons.
In the end, the pressure on the defense line suddenly increased. Prince Robin and others, who had just obtained some rest, immediately hurriedly picked up the bow and arrow again and joined the defense line directly.
However, even with the powerful Heglis in charge and strong men like Prince Robin are constantly killing middle and high-level demons, in front of a massive number of demons whose number is no longer counted, the final defense line will soon become precarious.
As a last resort, the melee troops joined the battle in advance. Roger and Michael and others, who had recovered a lot of injuries, quickly joined the defense line, and everyone tried their best to block the attack of the demons.
But even so, the defense line is still gradually shaking a collapse.
There are so many demons coming.
However, just as the demon troops finally broke through the fire blockade line and were about to hand over the short handicap with Roger and others, some riots suddenly occurred in the demons' array, and then the riots became increasingly serious.
Just under the noses of Roger and others, the low-level demons and low-level demons who were still fighting together just now began to fight.
