Zhan Shen: It’s Just a Sacrifice, How Can I Become a Villain?

191: No buddy, you are really talented?The forest might lack other things, but it would definitely not lack firewood.

Da Bin Ge and his group skillfully bled and skinned the wild deer; although the process was cruel, the aroma when it was roasted over the fire was truly enticing.

After seasoning, Da Bin Ge used a knife to distribute the most succulent venison to Shen Qingzhu and the others.

The members of the Reserve Squad were truly hungry, and the twelve of them gathered around the bonfire, enjoying the venison together.

Night Watchers and members of the cult chatted and laughed, creating a scene that was both bizarre and harmonious.

”Da Bin Ge, your cooking is really good!” Bai Li Pang Pang was clearly enjoying himself and began to flatter the other party.

Da Bin Ge chuckled and then said, ”Eat more if you like it, but your Realm isn’t high, so why aren’t you staying in the south to improve your strength, and instead came here to search for the Land of the Dead?”

Lin Qi Ye and the others understood; as expected, Song Zhong’s goal was that elusive legend, the eternal Land of the Dead.

”Da Bin Ge, you’re looking down on us a bit,” Shen Qingzhu wiped his greasy lips, ”We also want to contribute to the Church.”

”No,” Da Bin Ge shook his head, ”You are the Church’s kindling. Let us old bones handle such dangerous missions.”

Cao Yuan and Bai Li Pang Pang were stunned. The cultist’s tone of voice was somewhat similar to a Night Watcher’s; it was too outrageous.

”How could that be? I think it’s just finding a ruin, there shouldn’t be much risk, right?” Shen Qingzhu asked.

”If it’s just searching for ruins, it’s certainly not that dangerous,” Da Bin Ge said casually, then seemed to suddenly realize something and countered, ”What, you don’t know?”

Shen Qingzhu’s expression was calm, ”We snuck over here. What, are there other dangers involved?”

Da Bin Ge nodded, ”So that’s how it is. Then I’ll tell you.”

He lowered his voice and said mysteriously, ”Actually, we’re not the only force that came to Anta County this time.”

As soon as he said this, Lin Qi Ye and the others immediately tensed up.

They, of course, knew, because they were what Da Bin Ge referred to as the other forces.

This shouldn’t be happening. The Night Watcher’s confidentiality work was quite good, so how did it leak?

Bai Li Pang Pang nervously swallowed the roasted meat in his mouth, and to relieve his tension, he immediately took another big bite.

”Da Bin Ge, who else came?” Bai Li Pang Pang asked indistinctly.

”Of course, it’s our arch-enemies!” Da Bin Ge’s eyes suddenly sharpened.

Lin Qi Ye had already quietly activated his Starry Night Dancer ability. If the other party intended to attack, he could react immediately.

Equally nervous were Cao Yuan and An Qingyu.

”You mean...” Shen Qingzhu’s tone was well-controlled, stopping abruptly at the appropriate moment.

As expected, Da Bin Ge subconsciously picked up where Shen Qingzhu left off, ”Of course, it’s those sons of bitches from the Ancient God Church.”

?

Lin Qi Ye and the others felt relieved, but at the same time, they became alert again.

Ancient God Church?

They knew that Song Zhong had become independent, but they hadn’t expected the relationship between the old and new factions to be so hostile.

”What are they doing here?” Shen Qingzhu also showed a surprised expression, with a hint of anger in his tone.

”Doing what? Of course, they’re planning to lay hands on our great Dominator!” Da Bin Ge continued, ”While we’re searching for the Land of the Dead, we’re also looking for any traces of those fleas.”

”How detestable!” Bai Li Pang Pang suddenly became agitated, ”These stubborn fools from the Ancient God Church, don’t they understand that we are the true redeemers?”

”Little brother!” Da Bin Ge’s eyes suddenly lit up with excitement. He grabbed Bai Li Pang Pang’s hand, ”I didn’t expect you to be so young yet have such high awareness.”

”How can those fools understand our doctrine? The meaning of destruction is not destruction, but for new life! That’s why our doctrine is the fire of new beginnings, endlessly flourishing.”

Da Bin Ge was very emotional. He immediately knelt on one knee, devoutly placing his right hand over his heart.

The others, seeing this, also put down their food and emulated his actions, beginning a prayer ritual.

Shen Qingzhu looked at Bai Li Pang Pang with a strange expression. Good heavens, how do I feel like this little Pang Pang really has a bit of talent for being an undercover agent!

Lin Qi Ye, however, felt a bit worried. He never expected that the Ancient God Church would also get involved in this mess now.

The small Anta County had, for a time, gathered the three most powerful forces in Great Xia.

The Night Watcher, the Ancient God Church, and the New Ancient God Church.

The situation had become even more complicated!

Lin Qi Ye gave An Qingyu a look, and An Qingyu immediately understood his meaning.

Deep in the vast forest, several snow mice quietly ran towards the forest protection station.

...

Deeper in the forest, Song Zhong and He Lin arrived at an abandoned logging camp, which one of the groups of believers had discovered.

They found some strange traces here that didn’t seem to be caused by humans.

After Song Zhong received the news and rushed over, he carefully inspected the scene and confirmed that there were indeed traces of Mysterious activity here.

”It should be here,” Song Zhong breathed a sigh of relief, ”Now we just need to prepare the bait.”

He Lin asked in surprise, ”Bait? It’s so dark, what are you going to do?”

”You’ll know soon!” With that, Song Zhong walked towards the depths of the forest.

When he reappeared, Song Zhong was carrying a bloody leopard in his right hand.

He casually threw the leopard onto the open ground of the abandoned logging camp, then squatted down and continuously scrubbed his blood-stained hands with snow.

After cleaning himself, Song Zhong led He Lin to an abandoned room in the logging camp.

The night wind blew through the forest, and the accumulated snow on the trees occasionally fell, making rustling sounds.

It was already the middle of the night, and He Lin and Song Zhong quietly hid in the room, watching the movements in the open space.

Sure enough, not long after, a harsh rustling sound suddenly came from the darkness.

He Lin immediately became alert; something was coming.

”Hehehe, finally!”

Then, by the light reflected from the accumulated snow, He Lin clearly saw what had arrived.

It was a giant red worker ant, about two meters long, with a massive mouthpart like the scythe of death, quite terrifying in the cold night.

However, judging from its Mental Energy fluctuations, it was just a Mysterious from the Chuan Realm, pitifully weak.

”Lord Song Zhong, is this what you were waiting for?”

Song Zhong raised a finger, making a shushing gesture.

He stared intently at the giant ant, whose antennae, like two antennas, constantly swayed, then it came to the leopard’s corpse.

The giant ant clamped the leopard’s corpse in its mouth, lifted it high above its head, and then left in the direction it came from.

”Let’s go, we’ll follow it!”

Song Zhong’s figure flickered, and he immediately gave chase.
