From Prisoner to Si Chen

After a while.

Early eight o'clock.

A middle-aged nobleman wearing a dark blue patterned dress and a slicked back hair walked to the high platform at the end of the hall.

"Thank you all for coming to Didier's birthday dinner..."

Lord Crook held the microphone in his hand and chuckled.

Immediately afterwards, he said some polite words, which caused all the guests to applaud.

Didier also came on stage once in the middle, and many guests made a sound of exclamation. There is no other reason than that this noble lady is really dazzling tonight.

Her outstanding appearance and temperament can be regarded as one of the best among the young aristocrats in the capital.

Many young people present cast appreciative and even passionate glances towards the stage.

However, when Didier stepped down, she walked straight towards a blond young man and even held his hand affectionately, which made these young people's hearts sink.

After taking a closer look at the blond young man, they were surprised to find that this was the "noble agent" who became famous some time ago? !

Guillen Iros…

The youngest master, he also frequently appeared in the newspapers for arresting a large number of bootlegging criminals.

In particular, the fact that he personally sent four children of political figures to prison, and Brady was sentenced to death, caused a stir in the upper class circles.

It’s really hard to offend this guy!

Quite a few guests recognized Gilan's identity. Among them, the young people who were interested in Dedel gave up the idea of ​​approaching her.

There is no need to provoke such a ruthless lunatic just for the sake of a woman.

Gillan felt the gazes of the guests, and couldn't help but understand Dedel's intention... Was he using him as a shield?

Turning to look to the side, the noble girl raised her head and gave him a gentle and slightly apologetic smile.

Shortly afterwards.

The dinner party entered the dining stage.

Hundreds of guests were seated in the spacious and bright lobby, and more than a dozen large round tables were filled with luxurious and high-end meals, candlesticks, flower baskets and other decorations.

Gillan noticed that after Lord Crook finished speaking on the stage, he did not sit down to dine with the guests, but went somewhere unknown.

"By the way, Miss Didier."

He stopped his knife and fork and turned to look at the girl beside him.

"Today is your birthday dinner, why isn't Lieutenant Murdoch here?"

"Brother is too busy. I heard that he has been running errands for the Propaganda Department recently. I don't know what he is doing."

Dedel shook her head.

Ji Lan remained calm on the surface, but there was speculation in his heart...

It was clearly Miss Didier's birthday dinner. On such an important occasion, Lord Crook disappeared after finishing his speech, and Ensign Murdoch was not present either.

Thinking again, Prince was taken out by Ramon and also did not come to the dinner.

'Has the sharing ceremony begun...'

Ji Lan secretly thought.

Because he received the "hotline" from the White Sage, he learned that the "Golden Branch of Dawn" planned to hold a "Black Mass" ceremony through this birthday dinner.

But why did the "Heavenly Evil Cult" choose today to start the ceremony?

Is it possible that these two old esoteric sects have already discussed this?

However, this is unlikely.

So this coincidence is too weird.

He buried this doubt in his heart and was secretly vigilant.

At this moment.

Opposite the Tietjens Hotel.

A secret dinner was also going on in the sealed Silver Lizard Club.

It's just that this dinner party is a bit unique.

On the originally spacious fighting venue on the first floor, two huge rectangular dining tables were placed.

There is a circular symbol carved in blood on the dining table, divided by three irregular curves. Candlesticks were placed at the four corners, and in the dim venue, there was only the light of candlelight.

And these two dining tables were filled with shadowy men and women. They were dressed formally, with their napkins tied, and each had a pair of knives and forks.

The two young men were stripped naked and were pinned down on the dining table with a look of horror on their faces.

"Father! Father!!"

Prince turned pale and turned to shout to a middle-aged nobleman who was sitting at the head of the table.

"What...what are you doing?!"

"No, it's impossible...how could my father be a member of the 'Heavenly Evil Cult'..."

On the other side, Murdoch, who was also pressed on the table, widened his eyes and looked at his father, Lord Crook, in disbelief.

"Your sacrifice was worth it, Murdoch."

Lord Crook was also sitting on the main seat of another dining table, expressionless.

"The Taylor family needs a strong person in charge to deal with the coming changes... Don't worry, even if I die, your sister Dedel will still be there."

"I believe that even if she takes the position, she will become one of the few shrewd and capable countesses in the empire."

"Father, you..."

Murdoch looked ashen and opened his mouth, but no words came out.

He was given up.

He will serve as "nourishment" and his father's promotion qualifications.

"Ah! Ahhhhh!!"

Prince suddenly broke down and yelled.

"Father, don't eat me! Please!!"

He kept twisting and kicking his legs, trying to break away from the hands of the two Tiane cultists.

Upon seeing this, Ramon's eyes flashed with a trace of unbearability, but it was quickly replaced by determination and coldness.

He spoke calmly and said:

"Father God, please witness this delicious feast... Everyone, let's start eating!"

The words just fell.

Pfft——

A sharp knife has pierced Prince's chest!

Blood immediately gushed out, and Prince showed an expression of extreme pain, his eyes widened and his mouth opened wide, like a dehydrated living fish.

The Tian Ni cultist who was responsible for holding down the two eldest son sacrifices was skilled in technique, and with a cold face, he slashed down with the sharp knife.

With a hiss, the two young men were directly disemboweled.

Immediately afterwards, it was like a butcher's slaughtering scene, Prince and Murdoch were dismembered alive.

The head, internal organs, limbs, and even tiny fingers were not spared, and they were all distributed to each "diner"'s plate.

As fathers and "grey scar priests", Ramon Farhan and Crook Taylor had the heart of their eldest son on the plate in front of them.

That heart was still beating hotly.

Chew, chew, chew...

Guchi, Guchi...

No one spoke at the scene. They all ate with solemn expressions, their mouths full of blood.

That expression actually contained a hint of piety and holiness, which was very strange.

Ramon chewed on his eldest son's heart, eyes darkening.

He felt an unprecedented heat emerging from the "gray scar" on the left side of his neck.

Ramon swallowed what was in his mouth, and without hesitation, he picked up an exquisite ceremonial black-handled knife that he had prepared in advance and placed it at hand, and slashed his right neck!

Poof! !

Blood spurted out, but Ramon raised his head, contented with it.

The wound soon stopped bleeding. Instead, sparks appeared and turned into another "grey scar" like a brand!

At the head seat of another table, Lord Crook behaved exactly like him, and also left a second "grey scar" on his body...
