Mystery: I can change things in books

Chapter 107 The Weird Ritual

Knowledge itself…

Chris's heart suddenly beat loudly. He had been competing with "Mole" these days and had almost forgotten about the Moss Tradition.

Logically speaking, the Moss Ascetic Order is the secret organization that he should be most wary of. After all, the original owner was almost sacrificed by members of the Moss Ascetic Order in order to become an extraordinary person, and his path was also a "secret spy".

He sighed softly and clenched his fists. Since he didn't bring a pistol, he could only use his fists to solve the problem.

He stood outside and listened carefully to what was going on inside.

"...Brother Rooney, but my parents only allow me to believe in the goddess of the night. They say that except for the seven righteous gods, the rest are all evil gods..."

Jennifer asked doubtfully. She is a believer of the goddess of the night. The church has been teaching believers not to have anything to do with hidden existences.

"No, no, no, He is not an evil god, He is knowledge itself, Jennifer, can you understand?!"

Rooney raised his voice, then suddenly lowered it. He raised his eyebrows and continued in a low voice: "Now let us summon Him, pray for His favor, and fill your brain with infinite knowledge..."

Chris heard Rooney chanting from the utility room. He turned the handle and the door was locked.

Rooney whimpered, mingling with muffled whispers, and Chris' wrists began to itch.

He took a deep breath, took two steps back, aimed at the door lock, and kicked it with his foot.

"Boom!"

The shabby wooden door was kicked to pieces by Chris, and he strode in.

In the dark utility room, Jennifer was lying on a broken desk, with three candles standing around her. A strange smell different from essential oil aromatherapy entered Chris's nostrils.

When Rooney saw Chris coming in, he instantly put away the pious and fanatical expression on his face, looked at him in horror, and asked tremblingly: "You...who are you?"

Chris looked at Jennifer who was lying on the table. She had fallen into a coma and her arms were hanging limply in the air.

"Stop the ceremony!"

Chris roared decisively, his tone undeniable.Something was clearly wrong with Jennifer, and if the ritual was not ended immediately, she would likely die.

He knew what would happen if an ordinary person prayed to a hidden existence, let alone if the object of prayer was a "hidden sage"!
"It can't be stopped..." Rooney turned his head, squatted next to Jennifer, and murmured, "The ceremony has already begun..."

Chris cursed secretly. He didn't know where this bastard named Rooney heard about black divination. Now is not the time to think about it.

He suppressed his strength, stepped forward in two steps, and hit Rooney in the side with an uppercut, knocking him unconscious.

Chris stepped over Rooney's knocked-out tooth, lifted his feet and dragged him out the door. The punch he had just given was enough to knock Rooney out for hours.

Jennifer twitched, mumbling something vaguely, and the candlelight danced strangely around her.

"The writer of all living beings, the controller of the infinite universe, the supreme eternal existence..."

Chris chanted His honorable name in a low voice, and after the intersection of darkness and starlight, he came to the Island of Stars.

Since being promoted to Sequence 8, it was hard to hear the malicious whispers of the Hidden Sage when he came to Star Island, as if he had pressed a switch and lowered the volume to the minimum.

But this time there was whispering in his ears again, and he even heard a few words clearly.Chris had no time to think. In reality, Jennifer was sliding towards the abyss of death every second.

He threw himself in front of Liu Guang's original book, and bits of starlight shot out from the book and surrounded his body.

He remembered that Klein rescued a young girl at a family dinner when she used "magic mirror divination" to establish contact with a certain existence.

Chris quickly finished chapters 85 and 86, and found that he couldn't emulate Klein.

He learned from the occult information within the Heart of Machinery that if a ritual magic has started, it cannot be terminated easily. If you want to stop it, you must use the "interrupted" ritual magic chosen by Klein, and every The steps must be accurate.

But the problem is that "interrupted" ritual magic must be determined before the ceremony begins. It is impossible to say that it will temporarily change to "interrupted" after the ceremony begins.

Now that the ritual magic against Jennifer has clearly begun, there's no way Chris can forcefully interrupt it.

His brain was spinning rapidly. Every second he delayed on Star Island, Jennifer became more dangerous in reality.

Chris thought about holding Jennifer's wrist directly after leaving Star Island, just like he had done with Samantha and Fred before, and used the personality of Star Island to forcefully suppress the "Hidden Sage".

But he didn't know what the consequences would be.The current situation is different from before. Samantha was contaminated by a certain being at that time, and there was no ritual magic. Fred was also poisoned by ordinary people, and their threats were all within his body.

Now that the ceremony is still going on, Chris doesn't know what's going on with Jennifer. If it is terminated forcibly, it may cause irreversible damage to Jennifer.

Chris suddenly had an idea of ​​a solution.

He read Chapter 86 again and conjured "a small silver dagger", "a piece of imitation parchment" and "a water-soaked quill" from the book.

Before the stars that burst out of the book faded, Chris picked up these three items and the unused "Amanda" hydrosol and "Holy Night Powder" that he had placed here before on the table.

Chris is a member of the Heart of Machinery. It stands to reason that he should use spiritual materials that are biased towards the God of Steam and Machinery, such as "Bronze Powder" and "Bronze Dagger", but he has never even prayed to Him. He always prays to the unknown. The gods, the "eternal beings" pray to, and the materials for ritual magic are whatever is in the book.

As for the white crystal copper chain, Chris once got bored after being promoted to Sequence 8. He did a divination with the sentence "I can use the white crystal silver chain to do the pendulum method and get accurate results." The white crystal turned out to be smooth. The hour hand rotates, and the meaning is self-evident.

Chris returned to reality with the materials conjured from the book. He had already thought of a solution. It might be dangerous, but it was worth a try.

In reality, Jennifer's convulsions became increasingly violent, but not to the point of foaming at the mouth.Chris also concentrated and stopped being careless.

He picked up a quill dipped in ink and drew a complex pattern on the imitation parchment paper. When the last stroke fell, a light seemed to shine on the paper - this was the "lucky stone" that first followed him through time. ” symbol engraved on it.

Holding imitation parchment and holding a silver dagger, he built a spiritual wall around Jennifer and kept chanting the incantations he learned from the book:

"The author of all living things, the controller of the infinite universe, the supreme eternal being;"

"I beseech you to favor your devout followers; to grant me a response;"

“I pray for the radiance of the universe and for eternal power;”

"I pray that you will let your followers see the results of the ritual magic that this girl named Jennifer is about to face..."

"Pass it on to your followers."
