Looking down from a high altitude, there are only scattered lights in the dark night.
Due to the speed of the attack, the two sentry posts on the top floor of the bell tower only had time to ring the bells once before they were killed by lightning.
Therefore, the residents in the town were not aware of the fighting here at all.
Only a few people were woken up in the middle of the night and listened for a while without hearing the second ring. They thought it was a mistaken ring, so they cursed and lay down to sleep again.
No one knew that beneath the bell tower, the infamous Blood Crystal Cult headquarters was completely destroyed tonight, and even the treasures were removed.
In the open space in front of the bell tower.
The Boundary Flag stood quietly, its light gray luster spreading along the flag into the distance, submerged in the night.
Under the binding barrier of the flag, no one in the Blood Crystal Cult could successfully escape, and without exception, they were all killed deep underground.
Except for those who planned and participated in the raid, no one knew who had destroyed the headquarters of the Blood Crystal Cult.
In fact, even the Tower Mercenary Group and the Nolan Mercenary Group only knew that Weiss was in charge of the operation.
They guessed that Weiss must have a mastermind and backer, but they didn't know who it was.
But they are not interested either.
The mercenary group's code of conduct is to take money to do things, as long as the remuneration is in place, it doesn't matter what the secrets behind the mission are!
Not to mention the extraordinarily rich harvest tonight!
When they came out of the bell tower, the faces of the two mercenary groups were filled with overjoyed smiles.
The mission reward plus the property robbed from the Blood Crystal Cult headquarters is already equivalent to what they have gained after several years of busy work!
A great harvest without a doubt!
With this property, their mercenary group can expand massively and quickly increase their strength!
Click!
Weiss pulled out the Boundary Binding flag from the ground, and the light gray color covering the ground and the surrounding buildings immediately receded like a tide.
Putting away the boundary-binding flag, Weiss turned to look at Rimmer, Sosa and the others. With a wave of his hand, four heavy boxes appeared in front of him.
"Thank you for your hard work tonight, the operation has been successfully completed, this is the remaining reward!"
Rimmer and Sousa winked at the same time, and someone from both sides immediately came forward to open the box and check it out.
As expected, it was full of gold coins.
After a rough inspection without counting them in detail, the members of the mercenary group who inspected each nodded towards their leader.
Seeing this, Rimmer grinned at Weiss.
"Mr. Wei, I'm glad that we can work together next time if we have a chance!"
Sosa also smiled and said:
"Don't forget our Nolan Mercenary Group either!"
Weiss nodded.
"If we understand things, then let's compete!"
No one had any objections.
We came together to concentrate our efforts on action, but now that the action has been successfully concluded, it's time to go our separate ways.
Leaving each other is not only to reduce the conspicuousness, but also to confuse the investigation of those behind.
However.
Just as everyone was about to separate, a low, thunderous sound suddenly came from their ears.
"What sound?"
Someone asked with a frown, subconsciously looking up at the sky.
However, the night sky was dotted with stars and there was no sign of rain.
Everyone else also looked puzzled.
At this moment, a cry of surprise suddenly sounded.
"Look over there, what is that?!"
Everyone followed the speaker's gaze and widened their eyes in surprise.
At the far end of the horizon, I saw a blood cloud as vast as an ocean rolling with scarlet blood. It was spreading at an extremely fast speed, emitting a cold and evil red light.
"Then, what is that?"
A member of the mercenary group swallowed subconsciously and asked stammeringly.
Everyone present looked at each other in confusion.
They also didn't know what the blood cloud was. The only thing they knew for sure was that it was definitely not a natural phenomenon.
Even though they were extremely far apart, everyone present could still feel the extreme ferocity and coldness contained in that red cloud, like a prehistoric beast with teeth and claws!
The blood cloud looks slow, but it is actually very fast.
In the moment when everyone was in shock and confusion, the blood cloud had already passed several kilometers and reached the edge of the town in the blink of an eye.
It was only then that everyone saw clearly what was happening in the blood cloud for the first time.
There was a person inside!
That billowing cloud of blood that covered the sky and covered the sun, like a huge wave that threatened to submerge the entire town, actually spurted out from one person!
Seeing this scene, everyone's expressions changed drastically, revealing horrified eyes.
By this time, they still didn't understand what it was.
The blood cloud that rolled over was the blood-colored mist unique to the Blood Crystal Cult, but its scale far exceeded the blood-colored mist they had seen on members of the Blood Crystal Cult!
Even priests and priests are far inferior!
There is only one person in the entire empire who can do this!
Julien, Pope of the Blood Crystal Sect!
"Why did the Pope of Blood Crystal Religion appear here? Didn't you say you lured him away?"
Rimmer suddenly turned his head to look at Weiss, and roared with a livid face.
However, Weiss was also shocked and confused.
In his expectation, Julien should still be thousands of miles away at this time. How could he return to the Blood Crystal Cult headquarters so quickly?
However, the facts presented before us speak for themselves.
Their carefully planned plan finally went awry at the last moment.
"Damn you guys! I want all of you to pay with your lives!"
A roar of shock and anger suddenly sounded, like thunder, that instantly resounded over the town.
Countless people woke up from their dreams in an instant and looked out the window blankly.
I don’t know when.
The sky was already stained with a layer of cold blood red.
The originally bright moonlight was also tinged with a faint layer of blood, and mercury spread all over the town.
Everything you see is blood red.
It gives people a desolate feeling like the end of the world!
Countless small town residents were in panic.
Rimmer, Sosa and others had pale faces.
Feeling the terrifying murderous intent coming from the monstrous blood cloud, unprecedented regret suddenly surged deep in their hearts!
If they were given another chance, even if a knife was put to their necks, they would never agree to participate in the attack on the Blood Crystal Cult headquarters!
Unfortunately it's too late.
Seeing that the billowing cloud of blood had rushed into the town and swept towards the bell tower, everyone seemed to be waking up from a dream, and they turned around and ran away with strange screams.
Facing the saint-level powerhouse at the top of the pyramid, no one had the slightest intention of fighting and resisting.
For such a strong person, crushing them to death is no more difficult than squeezing an ant to death!
It is simply not an existence that can be matched!
Even Lin Ze looked solemn. Without saying a word, he grabbed Evie's arm, turned around and swept away at high speed in the opposite direction to the blood cloud.
In the blink of an eye.
Those who had gathered together fled one after another.
Even Weiss, the leader of the plan, couldn't care about anything else at this moment and could only focus on escaping for his life.
Fortunately, although everyone was terrified, they still remembered to scatter and run away.
Strong ones such as Weiss, Rimmer and Sosa could rush thousands of meters in an instant!
And this time.
The overwhelming blood cloud has already crossed the bell tower, swallowing up several members of the mercenary group who were the slowest to escape in an instant!
I saw those people seemed to have fallen into the King's Pool, their skin and flesh were corroded and melted in an instant, and they screamed miserably and turned into blood and disappeared in the blood cloud!
