You Have Science, I Have Martial Arts-Chapter 647 - 287: Beheading Won’t Work, You Have to Cut Off Their Hands

The Red Moon hung high, and Blood Qi filled the air.

At this moment, an ominous aura had already enveloped the entire Fashion Capital.

Initially, it was just the insects and rats in the sewers that were affected, bursting through manhole covers and swarming out.

Then, the pigeons and other birds in the city became agitated and frenzied, crashing into windows, shattering glass, and attacking people.

Finally, even the city's residents were affected, their eyes turning blood red, their hearts becoming irritable, and even being awakened to a primal instinct for killing, beginning to slaughter each other.

Husbands and wives, brothers, sisters, friends...

No matter how close their relationships were usually, now they all wished each other dead, as if there was some deep-seated enmity.

"Melissa, what are you doing?"

The still rational Sofia screamed, seeing her good friend Melissa pounce on her like a rabid dog, opening her mouth to bite her throat.

Ye Qingzhou raised a hand and knocked her unconscious.

Watching her friend fall, Sofia quickly caught her, her expression terrified and uneasy: "Melissa!"

"Don't worry, she's fine, at least for now."

Ye Qingzhou curiously examined Sofia for a moment: "You're just an ordinary person, yet you're unaffected by the Blood Evil Qi?"

He activated the Celestial Eye, intending to peer into Sofia's soul, but found nothing.

Meanwhile, pillars of blood-red light shot up from the churches, evidently showing that for over a hundred years, the Red Moon Order had been using its funds and influence, infiltrating every aspect of the country of Falan.

The entire Fashion Capital was built according to the will of the Red Moon Order, and beneath the feet of its two million residents was an unimaginably massive Blood and Flesh Refining Array.

"What on earth is happening!"

Vivian approached Ye Qingzhou with a grave expression: "What do you know?"

"I don't know anything, but I can see."

Ye Qingzhou pointed to his eyes, as he possessed both the Celestial Eye and Divine Eye, thus able to see through all elements and even observe fate: "I really dislike the Red Moon Order, so I'm happy to help you sabotage their plans."

As the saying goes, revenge doesn't wait overnight, and since he had already offended the Red Moon Order, it was natural to strangle the enemy in the cradle.

No matter what grand scheme the Red Moon Order had in mind, whatever the enemy wanted to achieve, he must resolutely oppose and sabotage it.

"Okay."

Vivian gazed deeply at Ye Qingzhou; she didn't trust him much, but the top priority now was to thwart the Red Moon Order's plan to blood sacrifice the entire city.

Even Bucker, who considered Europe an enemy, at this moment chose to cooperate with the European Union Special Bureau's Thirteenth Department to rescue the Saintess.

"According to the information I've gathered, the Saintess was brought here to be used as a sacrifice."

Bucker's expression was one of gritted teeth when he said this, obviously hating the masterminds behind the whole affair to the core: "The Saintess is the only bloodline the Night God left in the world; those vile bats of the Red Moon Order are desecrating our pious faith in the Night God!"

Ye Qingzhou's eyes flashed, immediately understanding that the Night Order's Saintess probably, like Huang Liwen, was a special bloodline left behind by an Ancient Emperor-Level Powerhouse.

"Oh no!"

Delphine approached with a sniper rifle and informed everyone: "I know what the Red Moon Order is scheming; they're trying to conduct an Ascension to Divinity Ritual!"

"Ascension to Divinity Ritual?"

"Or to be more precise, in ancient times, the ceremony of ascending to the Divine Tier through blood sacrifice was often called the Praise of Blood, a sacrificial ritual capable of elevating one's spiritual essence."

Delphine, from the Holy Mechanical Army, obviously well-versed, had obtained many ancient occult sacrificial secrets from within the Alchemy School.

After all, alchemy had separated from early witchcraft and alchemy, and although now focused on Elemental Refining, it still retained many elements of ritual worship.

Even alchemy often still needed to rely on the power of the Gods.

Delphine continued: "The Night God's descendants are innately divine, and each generation's Night Saintess is the individual who inherits the most divinity. The Red Moon Order plans to catalyze the divinity in the Night Saintess through large-scale Blood and Flesh Refining until it grows to a critical point, then kill the Night Saintess, seizing the activated divinity within her and thereby Ascend to Godhood!"

"You know too much."

Cardinal Morris, clad in a red robe, appeared before everyone with two attendants: "Our God is about to ascend to the heavens; we cannot let you ruin this plan."

"Bishop Morris!"

Vivian, holding her Knight's Lance, looked enraged: "You've betrayed the faith in God and joined the Red Moon Order?"

"No, this is the will of God."

Morris' eyes were calm, even adopting a posture of utmost piety, trying to recruit Ye Qingzhou and the others with fervent words: "God says, all things are illusion, all actions permissible, why not join me in this grand endeavor?"

"Not interested."

Ye Qingzhou never believed in God: "I like to control my own destiny, rather than being someone's dog, not even for a God."

"The Alchemy School pursues knowledge and explores mysteries; the God is merely a precursor on the path of truth, should be revered, but cannot cause human free will to submit."

Delphine gripped her sniper rifle tightly, her eyes firm and unwavering.
