Almost all of the split body was caught in the ice, and was annihilated in the horrifying scream.

…

The interior of Zul'Haka was shrouded in fog, and it was difficult to see the faces of his companions even from a few steps away.

Commodus looked gloomily thinking about his losses, and muttered to himself, "I lost five people, and I haven't even set foot on the steps of Zulhakar. I demand the priority in the distribution of the spoils."

Griffith looked around the thick fog nervously. Shortly after the battle, he could not find Erza. However, the psychic ripples and the mark of the chosen one made him feel that the Huntress was not far away.

"You will get it, Your Majesty. The extraordinary characteristics of the Shadow Devourer will provide us with a powerful weapon, enough to make up for the loss." Aaron became more and more excited as he walked, and his expression was too excited to conceal, "Finally, we entered Zuha

Ka, the Eternal Stairs enshrined on the High Pyramid will provide us with the spiritual energy we need. A great era, an era free from the corrupt past, is coming."

Commodus' eyebrows were tangled and almost knitted together: "Don't be too proud, wizard, just the beasts on the outside are so powerful. Can you guarantee that we will live to see a leaf of the eternal staircase?"

As he spoke, he said to the troll governor in disgust: "Since this is your holy land, where are those noble priests and tribesmen? Where have they gone?"

"I don't quite understand, Your Majesty," Overseer Ekirum replied with a puzzled look. "It's also my first time to enter here. According to my guess, maybe they are gathering, or the road we are taking has a specific

the use of."

"Enough, enough," Commodus waved his hand impatiently and said to Aphrodite, "Someone is following us, send your plants to be on guard. Then, do a good job of reconnaissance, I need your plant affinity to accurately locate eternity

The location of the stairs. Damn it, I have a bad feeling. The next enemy will be unimaginably powerful."

Miss Collector walked in front of the team. After a while, she suddenly stopped, turned around with an incredulous look and said:

"Your Majesty, gentlemen of God's Hand, I think you have to come and take a look."

After hearing this, Griffith, Erza, Aaron and Commodus all stepped forward. One after another, when they passed through a collapsed ruin, the scenery in front of them suddenly became clear.

A magnificent pyramid appeared surrounded by a circular lake and majestic ancient buildings. There was no trace of fog here, as if fearing some kind of existence here. From the edge of the fog to the steps of the pyramid, there was a field of bright red flowers.

It wasn't until this moment that Griffith remembered how to describe this strange plant - a blood-red orchid with slender, nerve-like stamens.

The bottom of the blood orchid field is not soil, only layers of bones. Red flowers like nerve clusters have roots in the bones, and the wide open mouths bloom with unusually red flowers, dripping with a transparent and almost glue-like texture.

Like mucus.

Countless skeletons merged into a gurgling stream, which was gentle, sticky, and faintly glowing. It was indescribably evil and ferocious.

A strange smell became stronger and the temperature rose.

Griffith's heart was hanging. He suddenly saw that not far ahead, in the ominous and strange sea of ​​flowers, Erza was standing among the white bones and red flowers, facing the direction of the pyramid, on the towering top

, the indescribable depression is like a dormant beast. Its phantom appears vaguely in the sky - standing on a throne of bones, with roots embedded in the skeleton, sucking the rotten juice, and the swaying vines are still demanding tribute from the unfortunate.

Everyone nervously drew out their weapons, and even Aaron felt like he was facing a formidable enemy. An illusory whisper echoed in the air——

"Can you hear my breathing? The wild and hot blood rushing through me."

"Please hold me tight and let's start from now on,

"Please hold me tight and never let go,

"I'm obsessed with you and can't help myself."

Griffith heard the chattering of the teeth of the extraordinary people around him, and their tiny steps moving back.

In front of them, a strong wind blew up, and the blood orchid stamens fluttered upward. Erza, who had been in poor condition, seemed to be free of all burdens. Her flamboyant red hair was flying in the wind, almost the embodiment of this scarlet world.

When she turned around, Griffith was shocked to find a deep wound on her wrist, and the low blood was condensing into a blood-red spear in her hand at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The blood dripped and spread upwards along Erza's wrists and arms, eroding petal-like marks on her right shoulder and cheek.

Erza walked towards the crowd. Every time she took a step forward, Zul'Haka was filled with scarlet. She opened her arms and invited people to meet the true God:

"Yes, I want you so much, (Och jag vill ha dig)
