Chapter 191: Chapter 183 Classic
After the leader gave the order, several people around him lunged at the girl with the wolf tail.
“Don’t move!”
The wolf-tailed girl with silver hair immediately pulled out a flintlock, and with a bang, she shot and killed the person closest to her without any hesitation, her cold gaze deterring the others.
But one of the men in black robes stretched out an aged palm and began to quietly cast a spell.
The wolf-tailed girl noticed this and soon felt her mind sink, and immediately panic set in.
“It’s a high-level Beginning mental spellcaster! So powerful!”
Suddenly facing such a formidable Extraordinary Exponent, the wolf-tailed girl was filled with fear, and although she tried to concentrate and resist, her eyes gradually became hazy and her fluffy tail drooped down.
“Catch her! All of you, together!”
“It’s the Divine Power of the Lord of the Lost!”
“She suddenly gave in without a fight; seize this chance to catch her!”
The villagers then tied her up, and she was led to the foot of the high platform, her eyes blank.
The leader stood on the high platform and looked down at the stupefied wolf-tailed girl, saying coldly:
“Despicable desecrator!”
“Oh Lord of the Lost who created the world, He will take your soul and make you pay a painful price!”
Irene silently watched the scene, calmly observing the people who had fallen into madness, not at all believing that those who pursued the Lord of the Lost for power were true believers of the divine.
They were only fanatical at the moment, but as soon as they received the grace of other deities, they would immediately switch their faith without hesitation.
A hypocritical and bloody sacrifice was about to begin, and the befuddled, spiritless wolf-tailed girl was to become a pitiful victim.
The leader continued to speak in a dull and cold voice.
“Praise the Lord of the Lost, who created the world, for it is His existence that allows us to overthrow the entire world!”
Irene and Lilian finally stood up, their exceptional presence immediately drawing everyone’s attention.
She raised her head and looked at the leader, who couldn’t help but look at her, the two confronting each other.
“Put an end to all of this, desecrator.”
In the pitch-black night, Irene, cloaked in black, only her eyes visible beneath her veil, showed no fear of revealing her identity.
In fact, it was the villagers who should fear her revealing her identity.
“End it?”
The leader’s tone, cold and merciless, clearly carried some anger as he continued:
“What are you doing? Disrupting the sacrifice like this, you are the desecrators.”
Irene looked at the villagers trying to approach and shook her head coldly:
“Impersonating a Priest of the Church, collecting the money of the common folk at will, the great Lord of the Lost will not tolerate your blasphemy. Face your impending doom, you imposter.”
After these icy words were spoken, the leader was noticeably silent for a while, quickly picking up on Irene’s stance from her speech.
The very thing he had always feared had finally come to find him.
But the elder man had said he must do this, with no reason to refuse…
He had no choice.
“They are desecrators, kill them, sacrifice the blood of those two to the Lord of the Lost!”
The leader issued the command without hesitation, and then a large number of villagers and Extraordinary Exponents rushed towards Irene and Lilian.
“Let night fall.”
Irene murmured to herself as a black light flew out from her body, swiftly reaping one foe after another in the night. They felt only a flash of black, and then they fell in droves.
“Mysterious rare artifact!”
Common folk panicked and fled in all directions, while the black-robed Extraordinary Exponents were astounded that their opponent actually possessed a Treasure class Mysterious rare artifact!
For low-level illegal Extraordinary Exponents, even a Collectible class Mysterious rare artifact was precious, and a Treasure class one was almost out of their reach.
Those rare and significant treasures were often controlled by the various powers of the East Coast Province; it was very rare for low-level rogue Extraordinary Exponents to possess them.
The leader also realized the danger and began to prepare his spellcasting, continuing to shout:
“Kill her quickly!”
Several spellcasters among the robed figures attacked Irene and Lilian with fury, their unleashed Extraordinary power instantly enveloping them and many of the fanatic villagers.
What did it matter if they had a Treasure class Mysterious rare artifact? They would still be killed, wouldn’t they?
They all breathed a sigh of relief, and then greed for that Treasure class Mysterious rare artifact grew in their hearts. It was a pity they all understood that it would likely end up in the hands of the leader, with no others qualifying to touch it.
However, the crowd soon witnessed a horrifying scene.
