"Where's the goddess? Wasn't she supposed to be locked up in this cell? Why isn't she here?" a man next to Qin Ruyue said.
"Could it be...?"
Another man looked at the corpse on the ground and was about to voice his speculation, but seeing the madness in his companion's eyes, he swallowed his words.
Because such a thing would be blasphemous to the goddess, and their guild would absolutely not allow such a thing to happen.
How could a god die? And turn into a pile of minced meat?
That's absolutely impossible.
Qin Ruyue stared at the corpse on the ground, her face filled with disbelief.
For a moment, she wondered if the pieces of flesh before her were the image of their goddess, but her fervent faith in her goddess made it impossible for her to believe such a thing.
How is that possible?
Absolutely impossible!
In her heart, the Blood Moon Goddess was the orthodox deity of the Netherworld, an incomparably powerful being.
In her dream, she learned about the goddess's past: the evil Lord of the Netherworld had used incredibly despicable means to imprison their goddess.
Even so, the Blood Moon Goddess survived.
Because He is a deity, even the evil Lord of the Netherworld cannot subdue Him.
If they can free the goddess from her cage, she will grant them all their requests; everything they desire will be fulfilled.
They will gain the power to control the entire world and immortal bodies.
Even resurrecting a deceased relative is not a difficult task.
Their lives will be perfectly fulfilling, without any regrets.
But now, everything is gone, because their god is dead.
"No! That can't be! God can't die! We must be looking in the wrong place!"
Qin Ruyue's expression was one of utter madness; despite the fact that what she was seeing was true, she still couldn't accept it.
"Search this entire place! I don't believe it! Absolutely not!"
Qin Ruyue frantically issued orders. Although she was almost certain in her heart, her fervent belief still made her unwilling to give up.
She's still making a last-ditch effort!
The others sensed Qin Ruyue's madness and dared not be negligent, and they themselves found it hard to believe.
This is a god! How could he die so easily?
Absolutely impossible.
They immediately split up, preparing to search every corner of the place.
A sliver of hope lingered on each of their faces; perhaps the goddess's cell had been moved, and the person who died there wasn't their goddess.
The four men began searching every corner they could reach.
Although the prison is vast, the pathways are not complicated.
There were four of them, each responsible for a different direction. After searching for a while, they reunited about ten minutes later.
Now they were certain that there was nothing alive here except for themselves.
This discovery completely devastated Qin Ruyue; her faith crumbled, and she simply couldn't accept it.
How could this be? That was a god! How could a god die so easily?
She looked again at the completely shattered corpse before her; now there should be no more questions.
Although they found it hard to believe, this body, broken into countless pieces, was their goddess.
Their god has been killed!
The blood on the ground hadn't congealed even a dozen minutes ago, which meant their goddess had only recently died.
If they had arrived a few minutes earlier, they might have seen the murderer.
But what power could possibly kill their god?
After all, the Blood Moon Goddess has been imprisoned for many years. If she had such power, she wouldn't have waited until today to make her move.
It happened just as they were about to arrive here and release their goddess.
It all seemed like it was all planned.
Qin Ruyue's eyes were filled with madness, her dark pupils gleaming with a faint bloodlust.
The other three were in similar situations to her.
Although their god died and their faith collapsed, the madness they had developed because of their faith did not disappear.
Evil gods are called evil gods because the minds of those who believe in them are unconsciously changed.
They usually seem no different from normal people, but when it comes to matters related to their beliefs, they become extremely extreme, fanatical, and insane.
This idea deepens over time without them even realizing it, as they believe it's all their own will.
Qin Ruyue was one of the first to believe in the Blood Moon Goddess, so she was the most deeply influenced by her.
As the Blood Moon Goddess dies, this effect will gradually disappear, but it will take time.
After all, this is something that has been ingrained in their minds for many years.
At that moment, a man saw something, pointed to the cell next to the goddess, and said,
"Look, what's that?"
The man's words brought everyone to their senses, and they looked in the direction he was pointing.
Inside that cell was a man dressed in all black.
They had already seen it when they came in, and they assumed it was another corpse. Besides, they didn't dare to enter these cells casually, so they didn't pay much attention.
But now that "corpse" has moved.
To the astonishment of the four, the "corpse" actually stood up from the ground.
They then realized that it was a living person.
It's unbelievable that someone could survive in the evil Lord of the Netherworld's prison.
They finally saw the person's face clearly.
That person had a very thin face, just skin and bones, and was very tall, over two meters, more than a head taller than the tallest among them.
After looking at the person in front of them and thinking for a moment, they finally recognized him.
That's the Instance boss, a minion of the Lord of the Netherworld, an evil and cruel Executioner!
He is also the guard of this prison.
Why is he here?
Hasn't he already lost his soul and become a mindless walking corpse?
Or rather, he has regained his senses.
Is he the murderer?
There is only one living person here, that's obvious.
Their goddess was killed by the Executioner before them.
That must be it.
"He is a god-slayer, we can't let him live, kill him!" Qin Ruyue shouted frantically.
Her voice was filled with madness and resentment, and her emotions infected her three companions, filling them with resentment as well.
They charged together at the Executioner in front of them.
At that moment, they had only one thought: to kill this man and tear him to pieces!
If they had any sense left, they wouldn't have done that.
Since this person can kill gods, he can also kill them.
Moreover, that prison was created using the authority and power of the Lord of the Netherworld.
Even their Blood Moon Goddess couldn't escape from it, so they shouldn't go in at all.
But they weren't thinking about that right now.
Because the moment they saw this god-slayer, they lost all reason.
Their minds were already filled with resentment.
At this moment, they had only one thought: to kill this god-slayer.
Everything else seemed completely unimportant to them.
They touched the cell door, which opened easily, and the four irrational people rushed in without hesitation.
The cell door closed immediately after they entered, but they ignored this obviously abnormal scene.
Because they have long lost their reason.
No matter how abnormal something is, it won't attract their attention.
They only have their goals in mind.
But the Executioners were very welcoming of their arrival.
This is no ordinary prison; this is going to be hell!
