Novel & Cerita Bloodstained: Ritual Of The Night Platforms

Like static crawling through bone. Then the lights flickered again. And every monitor died. Bianca ran in. “Something’s wrong.” “The power?” “Everything.” Then the alarms triggered. But not from outside. From below. The vault was waking up. --- Inside, Jace closed his eyes. He felt the stone shift. He heard the whispers in the walls. And he said the words only the old blood remembered. Not for control. But for debt. The floor cracked. Just once. Enough to breathe.

he cries. I lunge the knife into the left side of his stomach. He screams in pain. I did it again on his upper right. “Help! Mum! Dad!” Lockie screams. “Goodnight, sleep tight.” I whisper. I quickly slash his throat and leave. I head back to Dead Man’s Woods. I’ve completed my revenge for now. Until someone else crosses paths with me I’ll stay hidden. Saunders house: The front door flings open and the security lights light up. A young boy runs out covered in blood and keeps collapsing. He holds his hand to his throat and the other on his stomach.

I explained. “Anything else we need?” Daxton asked while he pulled out his phone. “Fake blood and a needle to draw my blood.” I said but instead of allowing them to ask why I needed that, when I saw the confusion in their eyes, I continued with my explanation. “The fake blood can be used to make it seem more convincing, but I will need to draw a sufficient amount of my blood to mix with the fake blood to give off my scent.”

Lucius and his friends tried to resist, but they were powerless against the strength of the Royal Guards. Alex was horrified to see what happened next. Lucius and his friends were led into a dark and dank room. They were seated on an iron chair covered with wires and needles. Their hands and feet were chained so that they could not move. Then they were made to drink a red liquid that smelt of fish. Somehow this seemed to relate to what Alex had read in Damian's book, so no matter where the belief came from, Alex was sure that the drink given to Lucius and his friends was vampire blood.

the man confirmed. Damian’s lips curved. “Good. Take her to the ground for the ritual.” “No—” My voice cracked, but the guards already had me. My feet dragged against the floor as they pulled me through winding halls. Then I saw it. The ritual ground. The stench hit me first, iron and decay. The floor was stained red, soaked with the blood of others who had stood where I stood now. Marks carved deep into the stone. It was hell itself. My breath came in sharp gasps, my chest caving in. My legs trembled so hard they could barely keep me upright.

Hair the color of rust. Silas Thorne. The name slithers into my mind like it’s always been there. Reid holds out his hand. Silas drops a small vial into his palm—black liquid swirling like ink. "The child must be born on Blood Moon soil," Silas says, his voice rough as gravel. "Or the ritual fails." Reid nods, tucking the vial into his jacket. I stumble back, my heel catching on a root. The snap of the branch is deafening.

As the moon dipped below the horizon, casting a dark shadow over Gettysburg's battle-scarred landscape, Reid and Elena prepared for the forbidden ritual. They stood within a circle of candles, their flickering flames dancing across the faces of the ancient tombstones. Elena's hands moved with deliberate precision, etching intricate symbols into the earth. Reid watched, his eyes burning with determination, as she poured a crimson liquid into the center of the circle. "The blood of the innocent," she whispered, "to awaken the Devouring Shadow."

The city in the distance was shrouded in red mist, and here here was silence so deep it pressed against the bones. --- They passed through the corroded iron gate and entered Factory Nine. The air was freezing. Under the beam of their flashlights, dark stains painted the floor hundreds of blood marks forming twisted, ancient symbols: the sigils of the Blood Cult. At the center stood a long steel table, and from it hung a human body upside down, completely drained. “Dear God…” one of the hunters whispered. Evelyn stepped closer and activated her energy scanner. The needle spiked violently. “Someone performed a summoning ritual here. This level of energy… it’s inhuman.”

Tomorrow at midnight, the Blood Moon ritual would happen. …
