book of old days

Chapter 131 About the Djinn
Ragnar regretted hearing this, "Well, pretend I didn't say it."

He took a sip of tea and changed the subject by the way.

"Speaking of which, I thought you had committed some crime to come here."

"Oh, why do you say that?"

"Because we can often see this kind of people here, committing crimes in other places, thinking that they can escape being hunted by running to a remote place like Nord, but often these people don't end well."

Sean wondered, "Can the Rational Society manage this?"

"School of Rationality? Of course they can't control it, but money is okay. For money, bounty hunters don't think it's too far away. In fact, even we occasionally catch a few fugitives in exchange for rewards. Dealing with fugitives is easier than dealing with direwolves." too much."

He secretly called it a fluke, it seems that he thought it easy at the beginning, but luckily he was not wanted.

"How do you know who is a fugitive? Who is a businessman of ordinary people?"

"Those who fled here can more or less see some clues. They are either panicked or unprepared for Nord's winter. It is easy to see." When Ragnar said this, His gaze was still fixed on Sean, which made Sean a little hairy.

"Ha, I seem to have disappointed you."

The two chatted for a while, and Ragnar got up to leave.

Sean sent Ragnar out of the yard, looking at Ragnar's back in the distance, but he felt a little itchy in his heart. Back in the study, he took out the book of the old days from his pocket and searched for the relevant content of the lamp god.

It was very strange why he didn't have much deep impression on the extraordinary existence of the Djinn at the beginning. After repeated confirmation, he finally discovered why his memory of the Djinn was so uncertain. In this book of the old days In the above, the content about the lamp god appeared three times in total, and they were located in different places in the record.

The first place appeared at the forefront of Medorian's description, and it was almost the first recorded alien creature.

About the Genie (1):
Among the otherworldly creatures recorded in this book of otherworldly worlds, the Djinn is the most surprising and interesting to me.

The God of Light is a god from another world with powerful divine power. Its birth and unknown, existence and unknown, no one knows its origin, the only thing is clear, the God of Light has a power unimaginable to human beings. This power is so powerful that it can create and the destruction of the world, though only in the records...

However, for some reason, the lamp god is also bound by certain rules. Anyone who summons the lamp god can ask him to fulfill three wishes.

Personally, I guess that the lamp god is very likely to be the so-called "true god", so the range of these three wishes is very huge, and it is definitely not a deceiving thing like the devil.

Eternal life, endless wealth, power like gods and demons, these things that ordinary people dream of are all that the lamp god can easily achieve for you.

This is undoubtedly the greatest charm of the Djinn. Unfortunately, the previous owner of this book did not leave a complete summoning spell and ritual conditions, only some uncertain speculations and conjectures, waiting for me to verify.

However, there is a price to pay for casting magic, which I have learned from the day I became an apprentice wizard. If you want to summon a real god, the price you need to pay will be unprecedentedly huge.

Since it is impossible to determine the world where the lamp god is, we can only use [Random Summoning Spell] to summon it. Once the summoning fails, the consequences will be disastrous.

It can be seen that summoning the lamp god is undoubtedly a crazy thing. In fact, any act of summoning an unknown god to descend is crazy.

I have decided not to think about it.

Maybe there will be people who are arrogant or stupid to a certain extent in the future to make such a bold attempt. For those who have this idea, I would like to make the following advice.

1. The Djinn is not a fool who can be easily fooled, but a life form with powerful wisdom.Don't try to make unreasonable wishes such as "I want more wishes" or "I want the Genie to obey me forever", otherwise it is likely to anger the Genie and even lose his life.

2: Before you summon, make sure you are prepared for the consequences of failed summoning—including accidentally releasing evil gods from other worlds into the real world, or your own soul being tortured by eternal pain, of course, and finally Common outcome - death.

3: You have prepared the three wishes you want to make.

Seeing this, Sean admired Medolian quite a bit. He was able to resist the temptation. This person is quite self-aware.

In the middle of Medorian's log, Sean sees the second paragraph about the Djinn.

About the Genie (2):
I recently reconsidered summoning the Djinn. Summoning the Djinn is definitely crazy, and I would never try it.

But this should not prevent me from doing academic research on it. Considering the danger and difficulty of summoning the lamp god, the relevant research will undoubtedly become precious academic materials and will be an important part of the research on summoning.

So I decided to try and make a Djinn summoning spell, and find the key ingredients for summoning the Djinn - again, this is purely academic.

After a period of research and deliberation (it took me about three years), after reading a lot of literature and referring to various summoning spells.

I managed to deduce several relevant elements and create an indeterminate summoning spell, which I documented - although I don't intend to use it.

My thinking is this, the legend of the lamp god is mostly found in the deserts of the Surand region, the ancient legends of ancient Essia, and the folk tales of some city-states around the Death Sand Sea.

It can be seen that the lamp god probably has a special connection with the desert.
Therefore, I judge that the first condition for summoning should be - the desert sea.

In every story involving the lamp god, people who see the lamp god are often in a desperate situation. Only a magical existence like the lamp god can help them escape their tragic fate.

So I guess the second condition is - the heart of despair.

In some stories about the lamp god, there will be a magical oil lamp, which is also the origin of the name of the lamp god. However, according to my research, the oil lamp is probably just a symbol, in fact, it is closer to a precious treasure , a sacred vessel.

Among the many ancient religions in the desert area, flame worship is a very common form of belief. I inspected the relevant documents in detail, and a concept was mentioned in many different religious documents. The container of the flame, this type of container has many names, 'pot of holy fire', 'sacred brazier', 'place of first fire'.

However they actually belong to the same thing, 'Fire Containment with Divine Properties'.

And in many legends, the body of the lamp god is often partly made of flames, so I guess the third condition is - the container of the sacred flame...

It can be seen that the requirements for summoning the lamp god should be.

[With the ocean of the desert, with a desperate heart, holding a sacred container, summon the legendary lamp god. 】

Sean couldn't help but nodded slightly when he saw this. Just from the logic of Medolian's derivation of the main elements of summoning the lamp god, it makes sense.

However, he always felt that something was wrong. There were so many spells and summoning conditions recorded in the book, but Medorian almost never explained the reasons for these spells and summoning conditions.

Only when it came to summoning the lamp god, he seemed to record it very rigorously, as if he was trying to convince himself.

And he mentioned several times that he would never summon, but the more he described it, the more people felt that he was trying to cover up.

Sean continued to look down, and sure enough, at the end of the Book of the Old, on the last page, he saw the third part about the lamp god.

This time the content will be much less.

About the Genie (3):
I finally decided to try to summon the lamp god...

I know it's crazy, but I've got no choice, I've lost so much, this damned cursed book has lost everything.

At this point, I have nothing to lose.

Whether it succeeds or not, this will be my last call. If it succeeds, I will make up for all the mistakes I made in the past. If it fails—hehe, there is nothing to care about.

Wish me luck.

Sean flipped through the pages, yes, this is the last page of the Book of the Old Ones, it seems that just as the book said, Medorian finally performed the ritual of summoning the lamp god, and he never performed the summoning again .

I don't know if he succeeded or not.

Sean shook his head. He didn't quite understand what "true god" meant before. Could it be that there are false gods?Now he understands that the so-called false gods should refer to gods of faith such as Aum, Uruk, and Sindora. After all, they are just aggregates of the power of faith.

So what kind of existence should the so-called true God be?

Medrian possessed the Book of the Old, why did he end up in such a desperate situation?

Did he succeed in the end?If not, then what else did he conjure up?

Sean looked at the above incantation for summoning the lamp god, and was in a daze.
