Volume Dragon: Start by obtaining the Infinity Gems

Chapter 183 Sacrifice
The strange buzzing sound emitted by the pyramid resounded throughout the entire Nazca city, and the square golden barrier prohibited all living things from entering or leaving.

The heavy rain from the sky was blocked by the pyramid's barrier, and the crazy people of Nicksalan also regained their senses. Just waking up, they immediately found that countless monsters and corpses were already surrounding them, greedily devouring the brains of the corpses.

The refugees had no choice but to continue running towards the pyramid in the center of the city. Tens of thousands of monsters in the city followed behind them, like sheepdogs urging the flock to walk.

In the center of the city, in front of the pyramid.

An obelisk with strange reliefs stood quietly in the square. Strange brains and tentacle-like reliefs filled the area around the base of the obelisk. There was a nearly one-foot-long hole on the front of the obelisk, with a red energy ball suspended inside.

Tezca's great shaman, Kuzco, stood in front of the obelisk in formal sacrificial attire. Shamans gathered around him, wearing bright feathers and gold and silver.

A strange azure blue wave spread out in the air, and Tiqis walked out from it, swaying her willow limbs. Two strings of gently ringing bells hung on her delicate ankles that were like black pearls.

"Hehehe." The woman covered her mouth and laughed softly, her charming emerald eyes flashing with a hint of anticipation.

"Fifty thousand brain hunters have been driven into the city. Is the sixth pyramid completed?" she asked softly.

Kuzco shook his head, closed his eyes and said calmly, "Not yet."

Tiqisi's expression darkened: "Didn't I tell you that the [Harmonious Green Land] ritual must be repaired? Without the help of the ritual, if something unexpected happens."

"What kind of accident could there be?" Kuzco interrupted coldly, "With the protection of [Tezca's Tribute], no one can break in. But I want to ask you, what happened outside the city? Why did so many Brainhunters suddenly die? Even several Big Brainhunters died. Do you know that the sacrifices are almost not enough!"

Tiqisi said with a gloomy face: "The red dragon of Mount Dilong suddenly appeared, and there were several strange shamans from another continent following him. They used strange evil magic to kill many brain hunters."

"Don't worry, the red dragon is still outside and they can't get in." Tiqisi looked at the sky in the distance, and sure enough, the red dragon, Sefar and others were blocked outside.

Kuzco snorted coldly and stopped talking. He didn't think there would be any problem in the first place. He attacked Tiqis simply because he was dissatisfied with the other party's questioning tone at the beginning.

They are all great shamans, so who is nobler than whom?
-
After a night of carnage, the dawn soon rose from the horizon.

In the dim light, the refugees chased by the monsters hurriedly shuttled through the dilapidated streets. The former prosperity no longer existed among the ruins on the street corners, and only the desire to survive drove them to run desperately. The screams of women, the crying of children and the heavy footsteps of the monsters intertwined into a symphony of doomsday.

However, in this chaos and panic, a wizard stood out. He was dressed in a black robe and walked calmly, as if all the noise had nothing to do with him. The wizard had a handsome face, and his flowing silver hair floated in the air like a spider web due to the influence of magic. In his hand, he held a white wooden staff with intricate carvings, and the gem inlaid on the top of the staff emitted a faint blue glow in the dim light.

Around him, the magic barrier spread like ripples, and any monsters that approached seemed to encounter an invisible barrier and retreated. The wizard did not rush to cast powerful spells, but just gently waved his staff when necessary to dispel the pursuers, and walked leisurely in the chaos.

"Look! That man, those monsters don't dare to approach that man!" Many refugees discovered this during their escape.

They were grateful and curious about the wizard, but did not dare to disturb him. They just whispered for protection as they passed by.

The wizard simply nodded imperceptibly, then waved the scepter in his hand gracefully and calmly, releasing the authority of the [Anti-Biological Force Field] and allowing the refugees who were close to him to gain entry.

Under the protection of the spell, more and more refugees followed the wizard, forming a huge crowd. The monsters saw that they could not get close, so they did not waste their energy to entangle him, but instead accelerated their speed to run towards the center of the city.

"Sir, Master Shaman, thank you for saving us," a middle-aged woman said gratefully to Nemesis.

He continued to stare into the distance and said nonchalantly, "Go back, back to the edge of the city, that's the safest place."

The monsters were rapidly approaching the city center, and the outskirts, which were originally the most dangerous, were now the safest place.

Nemesis originally planned to hide among the crowd, but after thinking about it, he gave up.

Once the battle begins, with his power and that of the obelisk, there will probably be no living creatures left around.

Many people believed in Nemesis because of his rescue. After hesitating for a while after hearing this, they walked in the opposite direction without saying a word.

But human nature is suspicious, and more people maliciously believe that he is an evil pagan. Otherwise, how could they say that the place where the great pyramid is located is a dangerous place? !
This is an act of contempt for the symbol of God!
But they did not dare to leave the protection of Nemesis. They just hid their evil thoughts and followed in the anti-biological force field.

Nemesis didn't care about such a result. He curled the corners of his lips and had already sentenced these people to death in his heart.

"There's a road to heaven but you don't want to take it, but you have to follow me?"

Since people are seeking death to this extent, Nemesis will naturally not care about their life or death.

Soon, the remaining hundreds of people brought Nemesis to the edge of the square in front of the pyramid.

Those horrible monsters were now crowded together in front, moving closer and closer.

Nemesis squinted his eyes and saw the scene in the center of the monster group through the mess.

The red spirit ball in the center of the obelisk has turned into a scarlet vortex. These monsters seemed to have lost their minds. They came into contact with the vortex one by one, and were all swallowed up by it, turning into nutrients for sacrifice.

"Sure enough, they want to sacrifice these monsters to summon the existence of the [Distant Kingdom]? Whose idea was this? The gods? They actually took the initiative to attract the evil gods?" Nemesis frowned.

As for the so-called "Distant Country", he has not found any relevant books with any records, except in the Psychic Tower in the underground city - on the destroyed obelisk, as if all traces of it in the world have been cleared.

Sometimes, Nemesis would suspect that there was something wrong with his memory.

The only thing he was sure of was that if the world represented by this [Distant Kingdom] really existed, it must be independent of the Demon Network multiverse.

It is another world that exists on the other side of the void that even the gods cannot cross.
