Seeing Ethan suddenly step out of line, a follower of the Old Gods hurriedly spoke up to stop him.
There was still some time before dawn, and until then, they were to wait for the thirteen lambs to complete the sacrifice, a moment many believers in the underground city found most thrilling.
However, Ethan ignored him and continued to walk forward.
Lindong smiled slightly and followed him, followed by Kane, who seemed to have anticipated Ethan's reaction, with an expression of amusement.
Seeing the three candidates untimely stepping onto the stage, interrupting the sacrificial ceremony, the onlookers below started murmuring in confusion.
"Let them go back."
Ethan said, "From now on, sacrifices will no longer be necessary."
This time, even Nightmare stood frozen on the spot, and the elder of the War Council almost bulged his eyes out.
They never dreamed that Ethan would utter such blasphemous words in public.
