"So, you still haven't explained clearly how you managed to save yourself in such a desperate situation?"
In the living room full of bloodstains and traces of rituals, Tullius, the captain of the "Dawnbreaker" team, stood in front of Piero and asked again.
This kind of question and answer has been conducted many times in the past ten minutes or so.
In the morning, after discovering that Piero was unusually absent from work, he arranged for two team members to go check on him.
This was originally just a routine inspection, mainly aimed at incidents where team members lost control... In Tullius's view, Piero's daily mental state was quite good, and the possibility of losing control was very low.
Of course, he was mentally prepared for the worst.
What he didn't expect was that the reality was far worse than he expected, or it was a lot outrageous.
When he heard the brief news brought back by team member Lisa, Tullius couldn't believe it. He confirmed it several times before reluctantly accepting the content of the report.
He immediately rushed to the scene to investigate and cross-examined Piero.
During the process, because the whole incident was so bizarre, Piero was not only never released, but was also closely supervised by his teammates.
"It's ritual magic," Piero said in a sincere tone, speaking the exact but incomplete truth, "I'm just a Sequence 9 'reader', and of course the only thing I can rely on is ritual magic. "
Under Tullius' serious gaze, he continued:
"I was really panicked at first. I could only recite the name of "Eternal Fierce Sun" over and over again, hoping to get the attention and response of the gods. Until they were preparing for the ceremony, they placed a stick in front of me. Candle……
"This candle is the key to my comeback."
Having said this, Piero looked up at his captain and directly pointed out the most critical point:
"Praise the Sun."
"Relying on this candle and the scent of the essential oil that the other party sprinkled in the "Spiritual Wall", I performed the simplest "summoning ritual" first and successfully summoned a spiritual creature.
"He was roughly in human form, with a faint gray mist covering his whole body. After accepting my request, he killed the two evil god believers very quickly, and then ended the summons on his own initiative."
Piero's statement is generally consistent with the traces at the scene. In theory, there is a possibility of success.
But the problem is, the probability of success is too low.
Tullius frowned and considered for a moment.
He found that it was difficult to falsify Piero's statement, because even if the same ritual materials were used, the same person used the same description of the incantation, and another "summoning ceremony" was held, the spiritual creature finally summoned would be There is a high probability that they are not the same.
"Do you remember the corresponding descriptive spell?" Tullius asked.
Even though the value was not high, he still didn't want to let go of this clue.
"Remember."
Piero nodded and lowered his head slightly. On the surface he was remembering, but in fact he was trying to reduce the flaws in his expression and said:
"A spirit that lingers in illusion, a friendly creature that can be driven, a unique existence that is willing to fight for me."
This is actually not a lie, because he has really performed such a "summoning ceremony".
Perhaps because the ritual used residual essential oils to please the "True Creator", the spiritual creature that appeared at the end looked like a giant black-haired rabbit full of a sense of depravity.
At that time, Piero almost immediately forced the end of the summons and stopped the ceremony.
After hearing the answer, Captain Tullius nodded, wrote a "Guarantee", signed his name, read the words clearly, and finally sent it to Piero and said:
"Repeat it, then bite the tip of your tongue and click on the signature position."
Due to the increased trust in "The Fool" and the fact that there was really no other way, Piero simply repeated it, ensuring that he was not lying and that he still had a firm belief in the "Sun".
[An app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old book-chasing tool, used by all old bookworms.
App,]
Finally, the special signature is completed.
A burst of bright and warm light rose and fell, and a familiar warmth surged through his body. Piero was also convinced that the captain's "notarization" had taken effect and he had passed the test.
Sure enough, after Captain Tullius put away the "Guarantee", he immediately untied Piero and ordered:
"You follow me to the "Church of Light", Pervok, and you continue to stay here. "
After confirming that Piero was basically trustworthy, he did not waste time to inquire about the important information that he had skipped before. He planned to have Piero report directly to the Archbishop of the Diocese of Dilis, the "Light Messenger" Gass Rabi. .
…
Backlund, 67 Williams Street.
After the housekeeper Kana left the room, the personal maid Liya who had been standing behind Valeera hesitated again and again, but couldn't help but ask:
"Miss, why are they leaving?"
She was referring to Makarov and Burton.
The housekeeper Kana came here to report this matter, and they wanted to resign from their posts and leave.
Liya knew that Burton was an extraordinary person trained by Valeera, but she didn't know that Burton's resignation and departure this time was, to a certain extent, Valeera's tacit approval.
From her perspective, Burton, a young man, had failed to live up to his lady's investment and expectations.
Of course, she had not considered other possibilities, such as that this was actually the lady's instruction.
She dared to ask this question because she was already familiar with the lady's character and knew that even if she asked the wrong question, she would not be severely blamed.
"They went to do what they wanted to do...actually, they didn't live a very happy life here, so it would be better if they left."
Valeela's somewhat emotional answer sounded somewhat vague to Liya.
She understood this and gave up the idea of continuing to ask questions.
The room fell silent.
Liya suddenly had an unprecedented illusion. She was clearly standing behind the young lady, but she seemed to be far away from her.
This made her very insecure.
After a while, Liya hesitated and asked:
"Miss, I would like to ask, what extraordinary abilities are suitable for me?"
Valeera's heart moved when she suddenly heard Liya's question.
…
Tillis, Church of the Light.
Tullius took Piero and met Archbishop Gass Rabi, a real demigod, in a spacious and bright office!
At the beginning, Piero followed the captain's instructions and briefly reported the incident so that the Archbishop could have an overall understanding.
"Your Majesty the Archbishop, I learned a very important piece of information from their conversation..."
"Haha, wait a minute."
Archbishop Garth Rabi interrupted the report with a smile. Transparent ripples appeared in his blue eyes, and his penetrating gaze immediately fell on the young "reader".
Piero couldn't help but take a small step back, feeling a strong sense of being spied on.
