Chapter 666: Evil G.o.d’s Palace
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Yes, my Queen!” As Clark was right outside the palace, he charged in immediately after hearing Monica’s command.
Clark put Jiang Fei in a binding spell after entering the palace. He then asked the Queen as he lifted Jiang Fei up, “My Queen, where shall I send him to?”
“Didn’t sl*tty Miraki fall in love with this Nephilim? Let them both serve the Evil G.o.d Solan!” Monica said coldly.
“Yes, your majesty!” Clark answered with a smile.
Clark had always been one of the Queen’s favorites. He felt jealous when the Queen paid more attention to Jiang Fei than himself and therefore disliked Jiang Fei significantly. However, now that the Queen had gotten bored of her new toy and wanted to sacrifice him to the Evil G.o.d Solan, Clark was more than happy to do her bidding. Almost as if he was worried the Queen would change her mind, Clark began running toward the Holy Altar with Jiang Fei in his hands.
“Eh?” Jiang Fei was stunned. He was almost going to log out of the game to save his own life. As he was still in the city, he could escape in any moment by logging out of the game.
However, when he heard that he would be sent to the Holy Altar, Jiang Fei was filled with joy. Even if he were to log out, he would do so only after he had reached the Holy Altar. In that way, it would be much easier to steal the Naga Soul when he logged into the game next time.
In order to make sure Jiang Fei died as soon as possible, Clark ran at full speed toward the Holy Hall. In a short while, he had managed to bring Jiang Fei into the Holy Altar’s region.
“Eh? Why are you here?” Ralph asked. He had only just handed Miraki over to the Holy Altar and had not left yet.
“The Queen has ordered for him and Miraki to be offered as sacrifices to the Evil G.o.d Solan!” Clark said happily.
“Oh? That’s great!” Ralph said and laughed. He was also one of Monica’s favorites and harbored feelings of jealousy toward Jiang Fei as Clark did. When the Queen had asked them to capture Jiang Fei alive, both Clark and Ralph were unhappy. Now that Jiang Fei would be sacrificed to the Evil G.o.d Solan, they were both overjoyed.
“Clark, why are you here?” One of the priestesses asked as she walked out from the Holy Altar. Although Clark and Ralph were the Queen’s trusted followers, they did not have the right to enter the Holy Altar as they were both male Nagas.
“Greetings, priestess!” Clark and Ralph kneeled as they greeted her. Clearly, despite being more powerful, their status as male Nagas were much lower than the female Nagas.
“We have come on the Queen’s order. The Queen hopes to sacrifice both him and Miraki to the Evil G.o.d Solan!” Clark said after greeting her.
“Alright! Hand him over to me!” The female priestess nodded as he received Jiang Fei from Clark.
“Yes, priestess!” Clark quickly nodded.
“Shuffle!” As soon as the female priestess approached Jiang Fei, her Reputation toward him changed into Respect.
The female priestess then brought Jiang Fei to the Holy Altar. As she treated him with Respect, her actions were much gentler than Clark who treated Jiang Fei with Neutral Reputation.
“So this is the Evil G.o.d Solan’s Holy Altar…” Jiang Fei mumbled to himself.
In all honesty, this place seemed much newer than the rest of the Holy City. Moreover, the style of architecture was also very different. Jiang Fei could tell that the skills used to build the Holy Altar were different from those used to build the external Holy City.
The Nagas were all High Elves banished into the sea. As there were no advanced builders among them, their constructions in the Holy City did not appear as grand as the interior of the Holy Altar which used only the best materials.
“Eh? Why have you brought him here?” Right then, Jiang Fei saw someone in the Holy Altar whom he had met before.
“Greetings, priestess Rebecca! The Queen wants to sacrifice him as well.” The female priestess in charge of sending Jiang Fei to the altar greeted priestess Rebecca respectfully. After all, Rebecca was one of the twelve main priestesses.
“Hehe, I did not expect us to meet in this way.” Jiang Fei smiled at Rebecca.
“Although we had a good conversation before, it is unfortunate that the rules of the Holy Altar cannot be changed. All males that enter the Holy Altar must be sacrificed. I cannot help you this time…” Rebecca shook her head. The same happened with all the female priestesses Jiang Fei met on the way. Although their Reputation toward him turned to Respect, they still would not go against the Holy Altar’s rules for Jiang Fei.
“Hehe, it’s fine…” Jiang Fei shook his head. His main objective now was to find the Naga Soul. Once he did, he would be able to log out of the game.
Therefore, Jiang Fei kept looking around during the walk. He did not worry about being sacrificed at all.
Very soon, Jiang Fei was brought to a huge hall. He could see that Miraki had been tied to a pillar.
“Ahh… Why are you here as well?” Miraki looked shocked when she saw Jiang Fei. She already knew of her own fate, but she did not expect Jiang Fei to be brought there as well. Realizing what was about to happen made her feel even worse.
“Hehe, it’s not a big deal!” Jiang Fei shrugged as he had seen a familiar jewel glowing brightly on an altar in the center of the big hall.
The jewel looked exactly like the replica Jiang Fei possessed. Jiang Fei was certain that that must be the Naga Soul he was looking for.
“Forget it… Perhaps it’s a blessing that I can die with you…” Miraki sighed. Ever since her Reputation toward him became Infatuated, she had thought of nothing else but to serve Jiang Fei with all her heart.
Very soon, Jiang Fei was also tied to a pillar like Miraki. They were positioned not very far away from the altar. Jiang Fei was formulating a plan in his head on how he could s.n.a.t.c.h the jewel. As the hall would still be guarded when he logged into the game next time, he would have to find a way to move as quickly as possible.
“The master priestess has arrived!” Right then, the priestess with the highest rank at the Holy Altar arrived.
When Jiang Fei turned his head around, he saw that many other priestesses of the Holy Hall had also arrived. As the sacrificial ritual to the Evil G.o.d was a very grand event, all of the priestesses had come.
There was in fact not a great number of the priestesses. Apart from the master priestess and the other twelve main priestesses, there were twenty or so other small priestesses. There was a total of less than fifty of them.
However, the forty over of them all had shocking capabilities. Even the most common small priestess was a Lower-Tier Overlord who had the same Level as Miraki. Meanwhile, the twelve main priestesses were all Intermediate Overlords and the master priestess was an Advanced Overlord.
“Prepare the sacrifice!” The master priestess called out after she had arrived.
“Clean them with the holy water!” With the master priestess in the lead, all of the priestesses began to shower Jiang Fei and Miraki with holy water.
“Shuffle…” As each of the priestesses came forward to pour holy water on Jiang Fei, Jiang Fei’s body continued to flash brightly. Very soon, all of the forty over priestesses had reached the Respect level of Reputation toward him.
In the end, all of the priestesses including the master priestess began to look at Jiang Fei pitifully. However, the Respect level of Reputation was not sufficient for them to change the Holy Altar’s rules. Although the priestesses felt reluctant to let Jiang Fei die, they would not stop the sacrificial event.
