Chapter 727 Sacrifice

In fact, some of these guesses are already closer to the real answer.

Jillian had indeed lived in Volantis for several years, from before he became a monster.

And many of the people who disappeared in the city in recent years were indeed eaten by him, and he also escaped from the ruins of Valyria.

To be precise, he brought out the curse or some kind of virus there.

During the day, the tiger robe army and the hands of the holy fire guarding the temple of R'hllor were dispatched to search the streets and alleys of the entire city of Volantis, even the bridge holes and the wells of the sewer were not spared, hunting down Jillian. 's whereabouts.

And the room he once lived in naturally did not escape. Although the surrounding streets are counted as a restricted area, people living in the vicinity dare not approach it, claiming that anyone close to it will disappear, but the slaves of Volantis Soldiers are naturally ignorant and fearless.

They broke open the door of this dilapidated hut, and then went inside to search. However, the search turned up some clues. A cover of this house was movable, and when the cover was lifted, they found another There is a universe.

The soldiers of the tiger robe army jumped down with torches in their hands, and when they saw it clearly, they all vomited.

Because the situation below is really tragic, piled up into a small mountain of bones, and most of them are still chewed in half, and a few skeletons are nailed to the wall.

They can almost confirm that this is the hideout of the monster, but he didn't return here after escaping last night, and he didn't know where to flee.

The consuls of Volantis, the ancient families living in the upper city, the wealthy merchants, etc., none of them want to be in the same city with such a monster.

They were afraid that the other party had changed their target, and instead of attacking the imperial emissaries, they turned their heads to kill, and one day suddenly bit their throats in their sleep.

In fact, over the past few years, the other party has started hunting in their city, just because the identity of the dead person is irrelevant, they are some slaves, drunkards or thieves, so they have not attracted widespread attention, until now if not for this Accidents are not revealed.

They didn't know that the monster's target was Asha. Because of the chaos in the scene yesterday, the monster was first discovered by the patrolling tiger robe soldiers, and then killed three people during the pursuit, and then attacked Asha. Sarah.

So it looks like Asha has suffered an innocent disaster, but it's just a bit unlucky, and it was accidentally affected.

If the higher-ups in Volantis knew that the monster's target was Asha, they might have driven her away immediately, preferably as far away from the city as possible.

But it is a pity that they do not know the truth, and the Supreme Clergy of the Red God Sect, who is the "Light of Wisdom" and "Fire of Truth", is not a fellow traveler with them.

The three-headed politics of Volantis, some consuls want a powerful party, some consuls want absolute hegemony, and some people want to be princes of Volantis, just like the pirate governor of Myr, now the pirate prince.

But Benero is different, he wants something more sublime.

Therefore, he forbeared in the temple of Volantis, and constantly laid out on the continent of Essos, just to wait for a suitable time.

"The night is long, and there is danger everywhere."

Benello read a letter from Norvos, and then a flame burst into his palm, burning the letter completely.

The flames illuminated his pale cheeks, the flame tattoos on his chin and bald head, and on his desk there was a letter from Cohor.

At night, in the dead of night.

Due to a recent visit by the Imperial fleet, the consul of Volantis has ordered a curfew on Bats until the next morning.

However, because of the attack that happened last night, the whole city knew that there was a monster that could eat human flesh, half human and half fish, and it was confirmed by destroying his lair during the day.

Therefore, shortly after the sun set at sea level today, Volantis became quiet. Pedestrians returned home early, and shops were closed. With the addition of boards, the streets were deserted, and most of them were in a hurry. .

In the city of Volantis, there is a big river that separates the upper and lower urban areas. It is the Lorne River, the mother river of the Royna people. The Lorne River flows rapidly and the river is extremely wide.

Otherwise, the long bridge of Volantis would not be extremely difficult to build, and it would be included in the 'Nine Great Man-made Wonders' by 'Long Legs' Lomas.

And it was in this Lorne River that merged into the Summer Sea, a dark shadow was constantly rising and falling under the water. He was Jillian who escaped last night and lost his trace.

At this moment, he floated on the water and stuck his head out, and at this moment, a big boat happened to pass by here, but the light on the Lorne River at night was extremely poor, and the people on the boat could not see the river protruding out. a brain.

And Jillian ignored the big ship, but turned his head and looked into the distance.

This was his last place to live. After he escaped from Andalos, he returned all the way to his former homeland. He did not dare to go back to the west, because he was afraid that his current appearance would scare his family.

Therefore, he could only come to Volantis, but he did not expect that his final home would be taken away.

During the day, he had quietly gone ashore but was cautious and hid aside, and then saw his house being searched, and then Jillian fled again and hid in the water.

"I'm going to kill her—"

At this moment, Jillian's eyes radiated scarlet light, and his mind became more and more irrational, and the world in front of him became a little dark red.

There is a strong desire in his heart to kill all living creatures, not just the woman who persecuted him, but all people, all living creatures.

Then dedicate their souls to an underground deity, the Will of Destruction.

Jillian's brain was blurred, but he didn't know why it became extra clear when he thought about it.

Before his eyes, he seemed to see the Fourteen Fire Peaks in the Valyrian Ruins, which had now become fourteen bottomless black holes emitting billowing black smoke.

Jillian tried his best to suppress his time for several years, but now he has been stimulated to fall short, and he seems to be completely transformed into the kind of monster he once saw in the ruins of Valyria.

And his body heaving in the water could still see the axe that Victarion had slashed in its chest yesterday.

However, the serious injury he suffered yesterday seems to have healed today, leaving only a long scar and broken scales, but the wound has completely healed.

Then Gillian's eyes turned completely scarlet, and it looked in the direction of the Temple of R'hllor and let out a low growl.

Then he got into the water and disappeared without a trace.
