Chapter 394: 223 Preparation for Slaughtering God_2
“Because the Alliance has monopolized the Talent Stone resource. Whenever a Talent Stone emerges, the Alliance will take it at all costs and no one can compete with them for it.
In addition to the Talent Stones, they also kidnap people. Anyone who awakens their talent will be taken by them.”
Upon hearing this, Dean McKenzie’s brows involuntarily raised: “Do you know what they do with these Talent Stones and the professionals who awaken their talents?”
“It might be related to the Church of Holy Light from the world beyond the Heavenly Abyss, but beyond that, we don’t know!”
“The Church of Holy Light from the world beyond the Heavenly Abyss?”
Dean McKenzie couldn’t help but narrow his eyes.
By the look of it, Dean McKenzie felt that peacefully coexisting with them could be difficult.
“Let’s set aside the issue with the Talent Stone for now, you guys should start preparing the corpses and the template first. Also, when are you planning to take action with the god-slaying?”
“Give me three days to prepare and I will contact you then!”
“Alright!”
Dean McKenzie was planning to make full use of these three days anyway.
To level up his Summon Skeleton skill.
After finalizing the details, Dean McKenzie ended the communication, and immediately looked up at the sky, furrowing his brows slightly.
Subtle as it was, Dean McKenzie felt like he was being watched.
However, there were no abnormalities in sight.
“Was that an illusion?”
Dean McKenzie mumbled under his breath, then turned around and entered the Land of Bone.
Almost simultaneous as Dean McKenzie entered the Land of Bone, elsewhere, 36,000 kilometers above his previous spot, an artificial satellite relayed the information it had just recorded to the Alliance Headquarters.
To a meeting room from last time.
“We found Dean McKenzie; he’s near the coastline of Thorn Oak City!”
“What are we waiting for?
Let’s move!
Apprehend this brat as soon as possible!”
“No, wait, apart from locating him, we’ve also recorded something interesting!”
The middle-aged man chairing the meeting waved his hand, and the meeting room echoed with the recorded conversation between Dean McKenzie and others.
…
“How are preparations going for the items you were asked to prepare last time?”
“Ah!”
“Slaying god!”
“Oh, you mean that? No, do you mean you’re going to help me?”
“Yes, as long as you pay me adequately.
I don’t need anything else, but I must have a bone template and high-quality corpses!
Additionally, as for the Talent Stones, help me get as many as possible!”
…
Listening to the playback echoing in the meeting room, the originally noisy room quieted down in an instant, with expressions of surprise and doubt on everyone’s face.
“What…what are they talking about?”
“God-slaying?”
“They’re discussing god-slaying?”
“Have they gone mad?”
At this moment, everyone in the meeting room felt like their entire worldview was being challenged.
Has this world become a bit too extreme?
Two mere sixth-turn professionals nonchalantly discussing high-level topics like god-slaying.
Are those words even appropriate for them to utter?
While Dean McKenzie and his group dared to speak those words, everyone else in the room was trembling with fear upon hearing them.
“Such audacity! They are insanely audacious! How dare they blaspheme against the gods!”
“We have to stop them before they act. Otherwise, our plans will go down the drain!”
“God will crush them!”
…
The meeting room bustled with discussions, but the one who chaired the meeting, the middle-aged man, remained calm throughout.
The calm demeanor of the middle-aged man gradually silenced the others, their attention slowly focusing on him.
Once everyone had quieted down, the middle-aged man began to speak.
“The man who just spoke with Dean McKenzie is Donald Morgan, the Holy Son of the Bloody God Church.
As far as I know, their church has a ritual.
A ritual named ‘Divine Slaughterhouse’!
This ritual is capable of summoning the avatar of the God of Blood for a brutal blood sacrifice.
After the completion of the sacrifice, the ritual leader will receive great benefits.
In addition, there is a hidden method to play with this ritual. If they do not satisfy the God of Blood’s desire for slaughter after being summoned, but instead view the God of Blood as prey to be killed…
The leader of the ritual can receive tremendous gains.
They could even burst out with divine attributes!”
The mention of ‘Divine Attributes’ immediately made everyone in the room intake a sharp breath.
Obviously, they knew what ‘Divine Attributes’ meant.
“Also, about Dean McKenzie, he previously annihilated the church of the Hunting God in Rouge.
You should all know that it’s not so easy to obliterate the church of a god.
For him to achieve this, he certainly faced a deity.
That is to say, he’s had the experience of confronting a deity!”
Upon hearing the middle-aged man’s words, everyone’s faces changed.
Especially the ones that were previously clamouring to complete the task were now sweating profusely.
“Why didn’t you mention such important information earlier?”
“You want us to confront a god-like being?”
“Don’t panic. Confronting a god isn’t as grave as it seems.
Due to certain restrictions, a true god cannot descend upon the world. The most he would have had to deal with is a reduced version of a six-turn deity.
Though I must admit, even so, Dean McKenzie is definitely something, but his real combat strength will not exceed eight-turn.
Moreover, he apparently has some means to counter deities.
Although it may work excellently against a god, it has little effect on us.”
As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, everyone understood his intention.
“You want them to take the risk?”
“Since they have the courage to slaughter a god, why shouldn’t we let them try?
My opinion is that not only should we let them try, we should help them try.
After all, if they succeed, it would be a great thing for all of us.
It’s possible that a deity could emerge from among us.
Then we, as an alliance, could hold our heads high.”
Look at his words.
So eloquent and righteously resonant, as if it is all for the common good, but in fact, he clearly covets the divine attributes and wants to exploit them for the hopes of advancement.
However, they are also willing to do this.
There are just a few issues.
“How do we help them?”
“Bring that thing with you, and use it when necessary!”
“If we use that thing, there is indeed a chance for them to succeed in slaughtering a god, but how can we ensure that we won’t mess it up?
After all, we’re dealing with a deity!”
At this moment, the alliance’s attention had shifted to the God of Blood.
As for Dean McKenzie, although they admitted that he was capable, he was entirely negligible in contrast with a god.
“When the time comes, I will bring the Church of Holy Light’s thing as well.
If everything goes smoothly, it will just be for show. If not, use that thing.
With that thing from the Church of Holy Light, dealing with the God of Blood should be almost guaranteed.
As for Dean McKenzie?
He’s just an inconsequential six-turn necromancer. He might be a bit skilled and have some foundation, but compared to all of us who are above eight-turn, would dealing with him not be easy?
However, to be on the safe side, bring along that thing which restrains his summons.
When it’s no longer needed, pull out his teeth. Without teeth, a cat is worse than a rat!
Then, Leo, you will take care of him!”
“Okay!”
The only seven-turn epic level being in the room nodded heavily, accepting the task. Then, upon giving it a more careful thought, something felt off.
What does a toothless cat being worse than a rat mean?
What the… Are they implying that Dean McKenzie is a cat and that he is just a rat? Do they think he can only beat Dean McKenzie when his teeth are pulled out?
Leo was very displeased with this, but he was the youngest one in the room.
He didn’t dare to say anything but held onto that energy, prepared to prove himself when the time comes.
Meanwhile, as they were having the meeting, on the other side, Dean McKenzie, who had returned to the Land of Bone, stood before the Bone Tomb. The attributes of the upgraded Bone Tomb appeared before his eyes…
