Baiyu looked at the altar.
It was entirely black, made of large blocks of black stone, covered with nurous red patterns.
These red patterns flickered constantly, alternating between light and dark.
The entire altar was shaped like a square pyramid, sowhat like a pyramid, with a large sculpted exotic beast at each of the four corners, said to be the four great exotic beasts under the command of the Dark War God of the Asura race.
The altar was built this way to please the deity, the Dark War God, in order to beseech Him to bestow divine power.
However.
Baiyu was curious if this Dark War God was a deity in the dreams.
To bear the na of the War God clearly had sothing to do with the Blade Realm, but in the dreams, there were only three deities of the Blade Realm, naly Scar God, Lion Craftsman, and Double-Horned Axe.
Of course.
It’s possible that the Dark War God was an avatar of any one of these three deities.
Anyhow, one can first exclude Scar God.
Alfred was a Favored of the Scar God, and He likely wouldn’t create a situation where His Favored and devotees slaughtered each other.
Looking at all the people saved on Canglan Star.
Scar God was evidently a divine spirit on the side of humans, but the situation on Canglan Star was mishandled by Him and the City Lord of the Great City.
"Destroy the altar!"
At this ti.
Alfred ordered coldly.
The mbers of the chanical God Church instantly set up magic crystal cannons and machine guns in place. As mbers of the chanical God, their mode of combat always involved heavy firepower coverage, followed by combat cleanup operations.
Such tasks of destroying fixed-point targets were perfectly suited for them.
However.
At this mont.
The main door of the gigantic altar suddenly opened, and a troop of Asura race soldiers, wielding swords and clad in a set of steel armor, rushed out from within.
Judging by their numbers.
There were about two hundred of them!
To have silently brought so many of the Asura race inside without detection by the Star Realm Army, it’s no surprise that Count Misar had prepared extensively for this sacrifice.
The overall combat power of this Asura race troop wasn’t high, but neither were they weak.
"Go, block them, give the chanical God Church mbers ample ti to prepare the magic crystal cannon," Alfred said in a deep voice.
In the Blood Church.
There were a total of four Saints.
One of them was out on a mission and hadn’t arrived in ti, while two others had to stay behind to guard the church, one overseeing the overall situation publicly, and the other secretly guarding the sealing object of the church.
So there were no Saints in the team Alfred brought.
This was also why he needed to hire a team like Tony’s.
As a renowned rcenary team in the Star Sea.
They had two Saints and three Quasi-Saints, a formidable force, but only two Saints ca this ti.
Alfred had invited Baiyu because he didn’t have much power to bring along.
At this mont.
Alfred’s subordinates had already started their busy efforts, embroiled in battle, while the mbers of the chanical God Church were busily setting up magic crystal cannons and other powerful destructive weapons, every second counting.
Alfred didn’t move.
Neither Baiyu, Tony, nor He Leiluo moved.
Clearly.
There were still powerful figures of the Asura race in the shadows, and Count Misar wouldn’t only have two or three combat-ready people.
So whether it was Alfred or Baiyu and the others, they were all fully focused, watching the surrounding situation, alert to the powerful Asura race figures lurking in the dark.
However.
The battle between the Scarred Cultists and the Asura race soldiers had already reached its climax, and the powerful Asura race warriors and Count Misar’s real personnel hadn’t made an appearance.
At that mont.
The mbers of the chanical God Church had finally set up the magic crystal cannon cluster, and countless magic crystal shells exploded amongst the Asura race soldiers.
A multitude of Asura race individuals were instantly blown to pieces.
In the explosion sites of the magic crystal cannons, the annihilating white light nearly evaporated those Asura race people completely.
However.
The powerful Asura race figures in the dark still hadn’t appeared.
More than ten seconds later, under the fierce and terrifying bombardnt, more than two hundred Asura race people were completely reduced to smithereens.
Baiyu took a deep breath.
The terrifying power of this magic crystal cannon was at least ten tis stronger than that on Canglan Star.
The Asura race’s army had no power to resist at all.
"The firepower of the chanical Race is even more powerful than this; you haven’t seen the overwhelming firepower coverage of the chanical Race’s battle fortresses. I’ve seen it once on the battlefield of Ghost Cry Star, and it’s simply a world-ending force..."
Tony spoke with a cigarette in his mouth, his eyes filled with sighs, exuding the feeling of a man hardened by ti.
"The battlefield of Ghost Cry Star?"
"It’s the main battlefield with the chanical Race; but we’ll talk about that later. It seems Alfred intends to directly blast through the altar’s door now."
Tony flicked so ash from his cigarette with a hand.
As expected.
Alfred took a deep breath and said to the mbers of the chanical God Church, "Fire, blow open that door."
In an instant.
Over ten magic crystal cannons fired in unison, countless shells striking the door and causing a series of violent explosions.
After two rounds of volleys.
The stone door finally cracked.
"Let’s go!"
Alfred decisively made the call.
He rushed headlong into the pitch-black altar passage without needing any light, as the interior of the altar was hollow, with torches burning so unknown substance hanging from the walls on all sides.
"The air is non-toxic."
The mbers of the chanical God Church quickly scanned inside and concluded everything was safe.
The group entered the ruins.
Although the area of the entire ruins was large, there weren’t many structures inside, nor any places for cover.
In the center, there was a small square platform.
On each of the four sides of the platform were four large conduits, with blood continually flowing from these conduits into the platform, gathering in the enormous cauldron-like container at the center.
At this mont.
Misar stood in front of this container, donned in formal attire, his eyes crimson like those of an evil spirit.
"I didn’t expect you to co so quickly, much faster than I anticipated, but it doesn’t matter now."
Count Misar’s face held a sowhat twisted smile.
As his voice fell.
In the shadows.
A few figures slowly erged.
Among them, two individuals entirely red, covered in red fur from head to toe, exuding a strong aura, were obviously of the Asura race.
Two other human figures erged.
Both were old n, one clad in a white robe, the other in black, standing on either side of Count Misar.
Alfred frowned.
He didn’t recognize these two from the Asura race, but he was very familiar with those two humans.
Executioner Buddy.
Crow Runes.
Both were Saints, and both had bounties on the Imperial list large enough for an average person to beco a super-tycoon.
"I didn’t expect that you, never found by the Empire, were actually hiding on the Chaos Mother Star, colluding with Misar in cahoots."
Alfred said grimly.
