Chapter 124: Chapter 124: Sacrifice

She placed the magic artifacts in order, fearing she might put them in the wrong position.

The "Eye of Beast God" was placed right in the center; it’s said this thing can communicate with spirits.

As soon as she placed it down, she felt as if that stone was "staring" at her, scaring her into taking two steps back, a shiver running down her spine.

In her heart, she couldn’t help but wonder: Could there really be a Beast God in this world?

As soon as the thought arose, she remembered the times she used the Beast God dream as an excuse, making her inexplicably guilty and anxious.

She silently prayed in her heart: Great Beast God, I meant no offense. Please don’t hold it against me.

After saying this silently, she quickly moved away from the Eye of Beast God.

The Staff of Nature looked very much like a magic wand, who knew who came up with it.

Luna Sutton waved it a few times, but the magic wand didn’t move at all, not even a spark sprang out.

She silently retracted her hand, thinking, I guess I’m not the chosen one, no magical talent.

The Priest stood below the platform, caught sight of her actions, and said blandly, "The Staff of Nature is not a toy; it’s a bridge to the forces of nature, not something you can just wave around and expect an effect."

She smiled awkwardly, quickly putting the "magic wand" back where it belonged.

Thinking that this thing was just for decoration, just for show.

She continued placing the "Wind Bell."

Suddenly, a gentle chuckle came from behind her.

"Cynthia, how was last night?"

Luna Sutton’s hand trembled, almost dropping the "Wind Bell" onto the ground.

She turned around, and indeed saw Kian Sterling standing under the stage, looking at her with a smiling face, those fox-like eyes curved into crescents, seemingly harmless, yet inexplicably making her back feel cold.

"Last night... was quite good, I slept very well."

She laughed dryly twice, thinking this old fox is really gossipy.

Obviously knowing everything, yet still asking, how annoying.

"Is that so?"

Kian Sterling raised an eyebrow, his tone was meaningful, "Then it seems Corbin was quite gentle with you, didn’t tire you out too much."

Luna Sutton: "..."

How does this old fox speak so ambiguously?

Don’t know if he’s mocking her or Corbin.

So she simply ignored him, focusing on placing artifacts.

Kian Sterling saw she wasn’t paying attention to him, but he didn’t get angry, just stood below the stage, smilingly watching her.

Stared at her for a while, suddenly discovering that she seemed to have slimmed down a bit since last night, the originally exaggerated curves becoming more toned and defined.

Her once chubby face also became more exquisite and beautiful.

He raised an eyebrow, surprised at heart.

Though not understanding what happened, he didn’t ask further.

Everyone has their own secrets, no need to dig deep.

In any case, becoming more attractive is good.

Having an attractive partner is always pleasing to the eye and easier to develop goodwill.

Although this is somewhat superficial, most men are like this deep down.

"Ding, congratulations to the host, Kian Sterling’s goodwill has increased by 5, currently at 60, reaching a goodwill stage. Rewarding the host with a solar flashlight, the reward has been automatically sent to the system backpack, please check it later."

Luna Sutton paused, looking at Kian Sterling, blinking.

Couldn’t understand why this old fox suddenly increased his goodwill.

Although it’s only increased by 5 points, it was a leap from no feeling to goodwill.

She was quite happy at heart.

Thinking the reward is a solar flashlight made her even happier.

With a solar flashlight, she wouldn’t have to worry about not seeing clearly at night anymore.

She didn’t rush to check, mainly because it wasn’t convenient at the moment.

The magic artifacts were just about ready.

The Priest walked up the high platform, starting to explain the sacrificial process to her.

To prevent her from making a fool of herself later on.

Though she didn’t need to preside over the sacrifice, as a Priest Apprentice she certainly needed to assist by the side.

Luna Sutton listened carefully, fearing she might miss a detail.

Approaching noon, the sun hung high.

The Tribal Square was bustling with people, the beastmen gathered under the stage, with solemn expressions.

At this time, Luna Sutton had more or less memorized the sacrificial process, feeling inevitably nervous.

After all, this was her first time participating in such a grand sacrificial ceremony, and a small mistake could result in a joke, and if it caused trouble, it would be even worse.

Seeing it was about time.

The Priest walked to the center of the high platform, holding the staff, looking solemn.

He slowly spoke, his voice deep and powerful, "Today, we gather here to thank the Beast God for granting us The Salt Lake, bringing prosperity and hope to The Wolf Tribe. May the Beast God continue to shield us, dispel disasters, and grant us strength and wisdom."

Below the stage, the beastmen all knelt on the ground, with pious expressions, resonating in unison, "Thank the Beast God for the blessing!"

Luna Sutton stood to the side, looking at the large group of kneeling beastmen and females below the stage, she couldn’t help but feel: the beastmen’s reverence for the Beast God ran deep in their bones, even the proud Corbin, the cold Rhys, all bowed their noble heads.

Even her father Lyle Sutton knelt below the stage, with a devout and reverent expression.

Mia was kneeling in the center of the crowd below the stage, thinking of Luna Sutton standing on the stage.

It felt as if she was kneeling to her, feeling extremely humiliated inside.

Luna Sutton, that ugly freak, just got very lucky to become a Priest Apprentice, it really infuriated her.

But she didn’t dare to reveal it.

Corbin knelt at the front below the stage, slightly behind Lyle.

He lifted his head, his silver eyes staring at Luna Sutton on the stage, with a slight frown.

How did she seem to have lost so much weight since the morning?

Could it be he was too rough last night, expending too much of her energy, so she lost weight?

Thinking so, he inexplicably felt a bit guilty.

Thinking to hunt some precious spirit beasts and make up for her properly later.

If her health got ruined, that’d be bad.

He couldn’t help but glance at Luna Sutton again, secretly sighing: This female, why does she get more attractive after losing weight? So strange.

"Ding! Corbin’s goodwill has increased by 5, currently at 78, please continue the effort, host."

On the high platform, a sudden system message rang in Luna Sutton’s mind.

Her expression was a bit dazed, her gaze instantly turned to Corbin kneeling below the stage.

What’s this man acting out for?

Why did his goodwill suddenly increase so much?

Could it be he was charmed by her after realizing she slimmed down?

Her gaze glanced at Rhys kneeling to the side, with a cold face, devout and solemn, like an ice sculpture.

Her mouth twitched, truly worthy of being an ice face.

Kian Sterling was also kneeling nearby, his usually gentle face adorned with some solemnity and piety.

Zeke and Malachi both lowered their heads, their expressions unclear.

After the Priest finished speaking, he looked towards Luna Sutton, signaling her to hand over the "Eye of Beast God."

Luna Sutton instantly returned to her senses, quickly stepping forward, holding the "Eye of Beast God" with both hands, carefully handing it to the Priest.

The Priest took the "Eye of Beast God," raising it high above his head, murmuring words.

She retreated to the side, secretly observing the Priest’s expression, noticing he maintained a solemn face throughout, his eyes deep, as if truly communicating with the Beast God.

Truly like an old charlatan, his acting, what a waste not acting in films.

After chanting, the Priest placed the "Eye of Beast God" back in place and asked her to hand over the "Staff of Nature."

She silently handed it over, retreating to the side again, watching intently.

The Priest held the "Staff of Nature," gently waved it, and it seemed as if an invisible force flowed through the air.

The beastmen below the stage all showed expressions of reverence, as if they truly felt the Beast God’s power.

Luna Sutton was shocked looking at it, these effects are too real, aren’t they?

Could it be that in this world, the Beast God really exists?

The Priest completed a series of rituals, announcing to the beastmen below the stage, "The sacrificial ceremony is over, may the Beast God continue to protect us, The Wolf Tribe!"

The beastmen below the stage shouted in unison, "Beast God bless, Beast God bless, Beast God bless."

The sound was deafening, soaring to the sky.

Luna Sutton snapped out of her shock, looking at the crowd of excited beastmen and females below the stage, her expression was quite complex.

She originally thought this was just a formalistic sacrificial ceremony, but looking at everyone’s pious eyes.

She suddenly realized that perhaps in this world, the Beast God truly exists.

And perhaps she truly needs to be cautious, lest one day the Beast God "settles scores" with her.
