Stones flew about, and the ground cracked open.
The earth trembled beneath them.
None of the "Fathers" of the Hundred Major Families could maintain their pride at this moment.
Panic was written all over their faces.
They looked at their Leader.
And behind the Leader, slowly emerging from underneath the ground... an altar.
Yes!
An altar!
Completely built from white jade, the structure was round with stairs leading up to a platform.
As the platform appeared, every one of the "Fathers" from the Hundred Major Families could see the intricate Dufol Language inscribed upon it.
The complex Dufol Language formed an indecipherable "ritual."
Parts of its meaning, however, were understood by everyone.
"Sacrifice"!
Almost subconsciously, these "Fathers" of the Hundred Major Families turned their gazes towards Cook's body on the ground.
For betrayal!
Everyone hates it!
No one will tolerate a traitor!
The "Fathers" of the Hundred Major Families were no exception.
