old dream

Chapter 53 Devil
Colin had only had one face-to-face with the wizard, forcing the other into a fence with a gun.Almost didn't even see the other party's appearance, let alone see anything abnormal.

Giovanni thoughtfully kicked open two more compartments, which were empty again.

The other party blatantly placed the altar of the black hen curse killing technique in the middle of the first floor, perhaps not for any purpose, but because the wizard was too ignorant and had no concept of hiding his position at all.

Giovanni suddenly thought that when the opponent used that kind of scream, he hardly needed any "trigger" to trigger the ceremony. He originally thought that this was because the opponent's technique was clever enough, so it was difficult to target and prevent.But now that I think about it, there seem to be other possibilities.

The "soldier" and "fortress" pieces that Giovanni carried were actually the "triggers" used by Arecio in several ceremonies installed elsewhere.

These spells prepared by Arecio are similar to the communication ritual and displacement transfer method that Colin performed before. The mirror image of the spell has become stable and reliable because of the successful use by the world for a long time.

Or it can be said that because the "river" is too wide and too deep, they have no room for individuals to play.Most deviations and errors are corrected by themselves in mirror resonance.

As long as enough redstone is provided as a fuel channel, even if it is hosted by a dog, it can take effect, and the effect is close to that of a master.

Therefore, these spells are also called general spells, which are well-known and rigid, and extremely easy to target.

However, the unknown Zhenxiao used by the sorcerer of Ziyuetian was not included in this list.

The more unknown and partial spells, the less stable the mirror image is.The shallower the "river" carved by the deep forces, the stronger the randomness.At the same time as it becomes easy to fail, it is also easy to be brought into personal play with the participation and focus of the wizard's intentions.

The wizard had used Scream five times with no apparent trigger action.While getting close to silent, there was not a single failure.

This success rate is actually a bit exaggerated for an obviously inexperienced Ziyuetian.

Giovanni showed a wise look:

"...he didn't use ritual magic at all."

But this is extremely unreasonable.

For the wizards of Ziyuetian, if ritual magic is not used, only elven magic is left.

But at this time, the evil spirits on his body are being suppressed, and he cannot directly exert influence on reality, so the elf magic that relies on spirits to cast is also invalid.

The practice of most Ziyuetian wizards during this power window period is to use the elves to provide themselves with spiritual elements as ritual fuel, thereby indirectly using the power of elves.

But this has already entered the scope of ritual magic, and is subject to many restrictions on this type of spell.These constraints are the most important entry points for Fangs to fight against wizards.

The number of ceremonies prepared in advance is always limited, and it becomes unsustainable when used up.And if someone destroys the position where the ceremony is placed, the wizard's trigger will fail directly.

Sometimes the fangs will fight at the ritual level before the spell takes effect. For example, by throwing dirty things, the ritual space of the opponent is no longer "pure", and the symbols are submerged in the turbidity and lose their meaning.

For them who are relatively weak, if foolishly waits for the wizard's spell to take effect successfully before starting, then they are already half dead.

But if the other party is not using ritual magic at all, then the position that Giovanni and Colin are currently looking for may not have existed in the first place.

"Hey, can you hear me?!"

Giovanni tried to talk to the other party.His voice sank into the darkness, provoking no response.Just like throwing a stone into the abyss, there is no sound of falling.

The first floor of the tavern was terribly silent, perhaps because of the previous screams, a few candles were knocked down on the altar of the secret religion.The evil and highly poisonous vegetation and a large number of antlers were slowly ignited, smoking and burning in a subtle crackling sound, but the dark hen without a trace of variegation seemed not to feel the imminent danger, and was still quietly lying low. The top of the altar, waiting to be burned alive.

Since the beginning of the battle with the other party, that person's reaction seems to be a little subtle.

He seems to be in a trance all the time, wandering aimlessly, but he can accurately grasp the timing every time Giovanni fires, and use a scream to knock down bullets.

That screeching can pull people into the frequency where that evil spirit is.For a moment, Giovanni had almost seen the indistinct shadow of the "spiritual body".

But is this really the sorcerer using his own consciousness to activate it?

"Oh……"

Perhaps seeing the altar being set on fire, the wizard who did not know where to hide, and did not respond, let out a raving sound.

This is a vague and distorted sound that seems to have been recited countless times over and over again:
"Are you going to show a miracle again, the great god who rules this day, Norton..."

Norton, the giant god who commanded Ziyuetian in the ancient legends of Ankh.

As soon as the wizard said this, the whole thing seemed to become clear.

"……really."

Arecio's voice sounded, although he couldn't see his expression, but he could hear the tiredness in his tone:
"Another idiot who harms himself and others."

Of course, the great god Norton could not appear here. The "it" present was just an evil spirit. According to the previous speculation, it might be one of the devils.

I'm afraid this ignorant wizard was just an ordinary person not long ago.He may have some way to start a communication ritual from somewhere, but it ended up hurting him.

After starting the ritual, where he saw the description of Norton's image, he remembered that he would use that ritual to communicate with a specific god.This is also what many people choose to do when they are ignorant and reckless after learning about the communication ceremony.

In a sense he did succeed.He received an unexpected response, and God Norton, who had the same image as the ancient records, actually came to him, and patiently guided him to open the shell of his heart and embark on the road of ascension.

At that time, he must have felt that he was the son of destiny, otherwise how could he be favored by the gods?

That is the glorious god who rules Ziyuetian.

But what he didn't know was that the so-called "God Norton" was just a devil pretending to be the image he had portrayed in the ceremony.

When using communication rituals with too clear intentions, or too eager to communicate a specific image, most of them will end up with this result.

He was taught various evil rituals by the devil, and because of this parasitism, he became more and more greedy and inflated.

After all, he is a man favored by the gods, isn't he?

He thought that taking on this easy commission was just the beginning of his legend.He didn't know all this, but the devil was gathering the conditions step by step to induce him to complete the ritual.

Because the shell of his heart was opened under the instigation of the devil, after the ceremony was completed, his own soul was the best nourishment for those little devils.

Now that the ritual failed, he was easily usurped his sanity, and the remaining subconscious was still instinctively murmured recalling the hypocritical dreams of the past.

And his body has become the most effective medium for the devil to break through the frequency limit and interfere with reality.

Therefore, "he" can directly exert the power of that devil without going through the ceremony.

"...It's troublesome now." Giovanni said with a wry smile and scratched his head.
