Chapter 145: The Altar

Gunie was not surprised by Socrates Kadlec's performance.

The more he interacted with them, the more he understood the terror and power of the Dominators, the Old Gods, and the Ancient Gods.

Even powerful deities were nothing more than worms that could disturb these supreme beings.

They simply did not care about the life and death of such beings.

Just as humans do not care about the ants beneath their feet.

Even if these supreme beings shifted their dwelling slightly, it would bring about the calamity of decline for an entire supernatural world.

At this moment, a great existence.

A great existence with dependents to communicate with, even a supreme being willing to spread its own greatness and terror.

This, by any measure, was a thigh that must be tightly clung to.

Even if it was just clinging to a single hair on that thigh, it would be endlessly beneficial for his clan.

In this way, Gunie could use this demigod-having clan to obtain a large amount of resources.

This was far, far better than Gunie directly asking for help from the other party.

"Lord Socrates Kadlec, you must understand that the Nightmare Dominator is the supreme existence."

"Not every clan is qualified to serve my Lord." Gunie said softly.

"That is certainly true." Socrates Kadlec chuckled lightly.

"Lord Gunie, if you have any requests, please speak freely."

"Our clan will surely do our utmost to assist, to demonstrate our determination and strength in serving the great Nightmare Dominator."

Gunie nodded slightly.

"I believe in your determination."

"If you wish to serve the Nightmare Dominator, you must first build an altar."

"For a great existence like the Nightmare Dominator, a top-tier, world-class, highest-scale altar is required."

"But your clan has no deity stationed here."

"Building such a massive altar will require considerable manpower and resources."

"Moreover, after its completion, the commotion of the sacrifice will be enormous, attracting some attention, which could bring disaster upon your clan."

"After all, the Nightmare Dominator is currently in the process of awakening. Most of its power at this stage is devoted to awakening, not to trivial matters."

"How about building a conventional deity-level altar? That way, sacrifices can be made without drawing undue attention." Gunie looked at Socrates Kadlec.

"Lord Gunie has thought this through thoroughly." Socrates Kadlec smiled.

"Of course, once the great Nightmare Dominator fully awakens and its power radiates into this world,"

"a highest-specification altar must be built."

"That is certain." Socrates Kadlec nodded solemnly.

Building a massive world-class altar was far beyond the strength of their clan.

Even a deity-level altar would consume considerable resources for their clan, but they could manage it by gritting their teeth.

"It must be built as soon as possible, completed within half a month at the latest. After all, my time in this world is limited. I need to use the altar to communicate with the great Nightmare Dominator, so that your clan's altar can truly be accepted by the Nightmare Dominator."

"Otherwise, the Nightmare Dominator may not respond to your sacrificial ceremonies."

"Half a month, a deity-level altar." Socrates Kadlec frowned slightly.

"To construct a deity-level altar in such a short time, many aspects will have to be simplified."

"Simplification is fine; I will explain it to the Nightmare Dominator. However, in the following period, it will need to be gradually repaired and completed."

"Rest assured, Lord Gune, it will certainly happen."

"That's good."

Gune nodded.

"Also... what kind of sacrifices does the Nightmare Lord require?" Sogora Kadletz looked at Gune and asked.

"Powerful flesh, bones, souls, and of course, the best are the extraordinary blood of various powerful enemies."

"The Nightmare Lord loves blood the most."

Listening to Gune's explanation,

Sogora Kadletz pondered inwardly.

"A terrifying entity that loves blood, if it truly fully awakens, I'm afraid..."

"However, even if this great being did not love blood, the harm it would cause upon awakening would still be extremely terrifying."

"Fortunately, we are already connected to this not-yet-existent being's favored, so we need not worry too much about this great being harming us."

"Flesh, bones, souls, and blood." Sogora Kadletz committed these things to memory.

"These things are not lacking; a single easy hunt can yield a large number of high-level giant beast carcasses and some giant beasts at the level of extraordinary masters. Thus, we can obtain enough meat, bones, and blood."

"Of course, higher-level giant beasts, such as those at the divine envoy level, are scarce and hard to hunt. But for this ritual, we still need to send people out to scout and hunt; even one or two, though few, are better than none."

"I hope the great Nightmare Lord will be pleased with these."

After some silent deliberation, Sogora Kadletz looked at Gune.

As the favored one for this sacrifice and communication with the great Nightmare Lord,

Gune's role was not to be underestimated.

The favored one was an existence that could directly communicate with the great Nightmare Lord.

In some respects, communicating with this favored one was far more effective than the sacrifice itself.

"Respected Lord Gune, please cultivate here in seclusion during this time, and leave everything to our clan."

"Also, Lord Gune, is there anything else you need?"

Sogora Kadletz asked in a soft voice.

"I need the coordinates of your clan's core teleportation array, so I can come over if necessary."

"Also, prepare two more teleportation tokens for direct arrival, just in case."

"We will prepare all these things for Lord Gune as soon as possible." Sogora Kadletz said.

"Also, I need to view and inherit your clan's caster's esoteric texts."

After thinking briefly, Sogora Kadletz nodded.

"No problem. These will be delivered soon, and I will also arrange a suitable quiet cultivation place for Lord Gune to practice in seclusion during this time."

"Mm." Gune nodded lightly.

"Indeed... with high enough status, good things come easily!"

Gune sighed inwardly at this moment.

Using his own special qualities, Gune turned passivity into initiative.

Not only did he obtain the coordinates of the teleportation array, but also the teleportation treasure for direct entry into this world.

At the same time, he had successfully packaged himself as the favored one of a terrifying entity.

Borrowing the power of this clan, Gune could continuously obtain large amounts of flesh and blood to expand his blood sea and enhance his strength.

Incidentally, Gune could also obtain the esoteric texts he had long dreamed of.

"The Nightmare Lord is a being even more fearsome than the great and terrifying entities." Gune thought secretly to himself.
