Chapter 432 Do you know what human sacrifice is?

Ji Shengyue used her status as a puppet queen to unite with the officials in charge of logistics and procurement in the palace.
Forged a series of emergency reports on the palace renovations,
It listed in detail the safety hazards posed by many key buildings in the palace due to disrepair, and even attached some fake on-site photos to enhance credibility.

At the same time, she secretly arranged for people to create several small accidents in the palace.
Ye Lingyun saw with his own eyes the dilapidated condition of the palace, such as leaking roofs and cracked walls.

“Ye Lingyun, this palace is in a state of disrepair right now, and many places are in ruins. Not only does it affect your living experience, but it also poses a huge safety risk.

I apply for an emergency allocation of a batch of building materials to carry out repairs as soon as possible."

Ji Shengyue tried his best to make his tone sound humble yet anxious.

Ye Lingyun played with the ruby ​​in his hand, glanced at Ji Shengyue nonchalantly, and sneered: "Hmph, whatever you want, but don't play any tricks, otherwise, you know the consequences."

After Ji Shengyue left, Ye Lingyun's nonchalant expression slowly faded, and he uttered two words coldly: "Idiot."

……

After the materials were approved, Ji Shengyue carefully arranged for his trusted guards to transport them.

They disguised the supplies as ordinary daily necessities and mixed them into the palace's daily supply transport convoys in batches.

To ensure safety, a different route was arranged for each batch of transportation, and multiple signal points were set up along the way in advance. Once the vampire family's spies were found tracking, a signal would be immediately sent to change the transportation route.

At the same time, they also set up mechanisms on the transport vehicles, so that in the event of an emergency, the supplies on the vehicle could be quickly destroyed, and the vampire family would never find any clues.

These guards were cautious, like ghosts lurking in the darkness, not daring to make the slightest sound.

They knew very well that if they were discovered, not only would their lives be in danger, but the entire plan would also fail.

At the same time, Raphael began to study the design of the altar.

He flipped through the ancient book day and night, carefully interpreting the mysterious symbols and patterns on it under the dim candlelight.

Every detail is crucial, and if there is any mistake, the altar may not function properly.

"Archbishop, can the construction of this altar really be successful?"

Ji Shengyue looked at Raphael who was concentrating on his research, and his uneasiness grew stronger.

Raphael raised his head, his eyes gleaming with determination: "Your Majesty, please believe in the power of the Holy See of Light. This altar carries our hope. As long as we work together, we will surely succeed."

Once the materials are ready, finding a suitable construction site becomes the key.

There are many mountainous areas in the Dajing Empire, but it is not easy to find a place that is both hidden and suitable for building an altar.

After Ji Shengyue and Raphael discussed secretly, they decided to send out several reconnaissance teams.
They are mainly ordinary servants and attendants in the palace. They usually have a low status in the palace and do not attract attention, making it easier for them to avoid the surveillance of the vampire family.

The scout team disguised themselves as ordinary hunters, herbalists and traveling merchants.
Scattered in every corner of the Dajing Empire.

They climbed over mountains and crossed rivers, going deep into inaccessible places, and carefully observing the terrain, feng shui and surrounding environment.

In order to avoid arousing the suspicion of the vampire family, they would deliberately carry some items consistent with their identity when going out, such as hunters carrying prey, herbalists carrying medicine baskets, etc.

Every outing is full of dangers. Not only do you have to guard against the patrols of the vampire family, but you also have to deal with various wild beasts and bad weather in the mountains.

After several days of arduous searching, a reconnaissance team finally brought good news.

In the deep mountains in the north of the empire, they found a valley. The terrain there was hidden and surrounded by dense forests. There was also a hidden stream in the valley. The feng shui was excellent, making it a perfect place to build an altar.

Ji Shengyue and Raphael were ecstatic when they learned about it, but they also understood that the real challenge had just begun.

The construction of the altar officially began.

Ji Shengyue and Raphael led a group of loyal men and secretly went to the valley with supplies.

They chose to set out on a full-moon night, using the cover of moonlight to move forward quietly.

In order to avoid leaving any traces, they would arrange special personnel to clean up wherever they passed and eliminate all clues that might expose their whereabouts.

Along the way, everyone remained highly vigilant, and a guard was arranged to stand guard at regular intervals to ensure safety.

After arriving at the valley, everyone immediately plunged into the intensive construction work.

Raphael personally directed the work and guided the craftsmen step by step to build the altar frame according to the records in ancient books.

Ji Shengyue, regardless of her status as queen, personally participated in the labor, moving stones and stirring mud with everyone.

Her hands were covered with blisters and her clothes were covered with mud, but she didn't care. She had only one belief in her heart: to take back her own power and save the Dajing Empire.

……

The process of building the altar was not smooth sailing.

The vampire family's spies are everywhere, but their actions still aroused some suspicion.

Just as everyone was busy in the valley, they suddenly heard a noisy sound coming from a distance.

A guard on sentry duty ran back in panic and reported: "It's bad, Your Majesty, Archbishop, a patrol team from the vampire family is coming this way!"

Everyone panicked and dropped the tools in their hands.

Ji Shengyue looked pale, but she quickly calmed down and gave an order: "Don't panic, act according to the previous plan immediately! Some people will be responsible for cleaning up the scene and eliminating traces. The other part will follow me to the entrance of the valley and lead away the patrol team!"

Ji Shengyue led a group of guards and set up some traps and misleading signs at the entrance of the valley, making the patrol team mistakenly believe that there were other important targets here.

Then they deliberately made some noise to attract the attention of the patrol.

After the patrol team was attracted, Ji Shengyue and others cleverly dealt with them, using the terrain of the valley to engage in a hide-and-seek chase with the patrol team.

Fortunately, after searching the valley, the patrol found no trace of the altar and left.

After experiencing this crisis, everyone realized that they had to speed up the construction of the altar, otherwise all their efforts would be wasted once it was discovered by the vampire family.

As a result, everyone worked day and night, and their busy figures in the valley never stopped.

As the altar gradually took shape, new problems arose.

Late one night, when everyone was resting, there was a sudden strong wind with lightning and thunder.

A mysterious black light shot from the direction of the altar into the sky.

Some strange black shadows appeared around the altar, with their fangs and claws bared, trying to destroy the altar.

After being awakened, Raphael and Ji Shengyue immediately rushed to the altar.

Raphael's face was solemn. This was a strange force trying to prevent the construction of the altar.

Light has an innate restraining effect on weirdness, so before it takes shape, it will attract weirdness.

But Raphael couldn't take action at the critical moment of maintaining the altar.

Ji Shengyue also picked up his weapon and, together with the guards, stood guard around the altar to prevent the shadow from approaching. The battle lasted a whole night, and everyone was exhausted, but they did not retreat.

Finally, at the dawn of dawn, the dark shadows gradually disappeared and the altar was safe and sound.

In the following days, Ji Shengyue and Raphael led everyone to overcome one difficulty after another.

They constantly adjust the design of the altar to adapt to various emergencies.

At the same time, they also strengthened their vigilance of the surrounding environment and set up multiple hidden observation points around the valley.

Once any abnormal situation is found, an alarm can be issued in time. As time goes by, the altar is finally close to completion.

The huge altar stood in the valley, emitting a mysterious light.

The surroundings were engraved with runes and spells, as if telling of the powerful force that was to come.

Ji Shengyue and Raphael stood beside the altar, looking at the fruit of their labor, their hearts filled with emotion and expectation. "Archbishop, we did it."

Tears flickered in Ji Shengyue's eyes.

It has not been easy along the way.

Raphael nodded slightly, with a relieved smile on his face: “Yes, Your Majesty.

As long as we complete the last step and summon the angels, we can completely defeat the vampire family and restore peace and prosperity to the Dajing Empire."

The valley was filled with damp and cold fog. The altar, which embodied countless efforts, stood quietly, exuding a mysterious and cold atmosphere.

Runes and spells flickered, as if whispering about the impending turn of fate.

Ji Shengyue stood beside the altar, her hair was messy in the night wind, her eyes were full of tension and anticipation.

She took a deep breath and spoke slowly, her voice echoing softly in the silent valley: "How can I summon the angel next?"

At this moment, she was thinking about using the power of angels to save the Dajing Empire and regain her own power.

But she didn't know that she was about to step into a huge vortex of conspiracy.

Raphael's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a meaningful smile.

That smile is no longer the warmth and kindness it once pretended to be.
Instead, there is the pride and arrogance after the evil plan succeeded.

He raised his head slightly, his eyes flashing with enthusiasm, and said slowly: "We have completed the most important link. Now I believe that the other bishops of our Holy See of Light have also completed the other links."

His voice was low and steady, with a kind of confidence that he was in control of everything.

"The other bishops?"

Ji Shengyue's heart sank suddenly, and a strong ominous premonition came to his mind.

She stared at Raphael, trying to find a hint of the familiarity and warmth of the past in his expression.
But all she saw was a look of smugness that was unfamiliar and frightening to her.

Her hands clenched unconsciously, her nails dug deeply into her palms, and an indescribable uneasiness surged in her heart.

Raphael narrowed his eyes slightly, the fanaticism in his eyes became more intense, and he slowly said: "Yes, if you want to summon real angels from heaven, you still need a huge human sacrifice. Do you know what human sacrifice is?"

He paused, looked straight at Ji Shengyue, and his voice suddenly became icy cold as he spoke word by word: "That's a person."

Ji Shengyue only felt a bone-chilling chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and his whole body instantly turned cold.

She looked at Raphael in disbelief, her lips trembling, and her mind kept echoing: The Holy See of Light, which clearly represents light and mercy, why is it like a devil?
Especially what Raphael said just now,
To summon a true angel from the sky, a huge human sacrifice is required.

The items used for sacrifice are not pig heads, mutton, fruits or cakes, but living people.

So what is this living person?
Could it be that……

Ji Shengyue suddenly widened his eyes, which were full of anger and shock, and asked sternly: "Do you want to use our Dajing Empire people as sacrifices?"

Her voice became sharp because of anger, echoing in the valley, carrying endless resentment and questioning.

"So you just discovered it now."

Raphael smiled contemptuously, with a mocking arc on the corner of his mouth, his eyes full of disdain: "No wonder the entire Dajing Empire has come to where it is today step by step in your hands.

But you don't have to be angry, this is the fate of your Dajing Empire."

He shook his head slightly, and the smug look on his face became more and more obvious, as if he was mocking Ji Shengyue's naivety and ignorance.

At this moment, cardinals in red robes slowly walked out from all directions of the surrounding woods.

They walked in step, their expressions were eerily calm, as if they were about to perform a very ordinary ceremony.

There were at least twenty or thirty cardinals, their figures looming in the mist, like ghosts walking out of the darkness.

They walked up to Raphael and nodded in his direction.

The action was tacit and cold, as if announcing the completion of a crime.

When Raphael saw this scene, the smile on his face became even more intense, almost overflowing.

He turned to look at Ji Shengyue, with a hint of sarcasm and complacency in his tone: "Ji Shengyue, don't think too highly of your Dajing Empire, because our target has always been Chuhe of the Daxia Empire."

This sentence was like a bolt from the blue, and Ji Shengyue was almost so angry that he vomited blood.

Her eyes were wide open, with flames of anger burning in them, and she shouted, "Do you think your plan can be implemented so easily?

You have to know that the Dajing Empire has the top combat power of the entire vampire family here.
Moreover, Ye Lingyun, the patriarch of the vampire family, is Chu He’s only direct disciple.”

Ji Shengyue never thought that one day he would use Chu He as a bargaining chip to oppress others.

When she said this herself, she felt dazed.
It was as if I had fallen into a dark abyss from which I could not escape.

Raphael didn't care about Ji Shengyue's anger and threats. He looked calm and said firmly: "I can only tell you,
When the angels descend, there will be only one existence in the world, and that is the Holy See of Light.

As for your Dajing Empire, Daxia Empire, Lighthouse Empire, and the so-called vampire family and werewolf family...

Whether they still exist or have already died, they will completely disappear from the blue planet."

Raphael said this very seriously, without any exaggeration, and his tone was as if he was stating an indisputable fact.

It is this kind of extreme self-confidence and terrifyingly ordinary attitude that

Ji Shengyue's heart sank.

She realized that she might be caught in a conspiracy more terrifying than the vampire family.

The Dajing Empire, and even the entire world, will face an unprecedented disaster!
