Although the summoning circle was filled with another kind of magic power, and the unknown demon had already stretched out his palm, Salomon did not panic at all. Although the demon himself paid for the magic power to be summoned, the summoning circle depicted by Salomon was only a second-level summoning spell. Even the most powerful demon could not get out of this narrow exit and reach the main substance. plane.
The ability of a Hideous demon to pass through the summoning circle is already the limit. A slightly more powerful demon would not tolerate the feeling of drilling into a water pipe. Unless this demon's name is Mario and that layer of abyss is called Nintendo.
This is the experience he gained from his memory. It is a small means to prevent the summoned object from summoning more demons through the summoning circle. If you are a mage who specializes in conjuration, you will only have more means to arrange in the summoning room, including but not limited to placing a water spout above the summoning circle and spraying holy water when necessary; or inscribing teleportation methods in the summoning room. The destination of the formation is Heaven Mountain. Anyway, the teleportation array is anonymous, and Heaven Mountain will not know who threw the demon there.
Salomon ignored the trembling Hideous demon who was pushed aside by the palm, but stretched out his right hand with three rings. With his voice, sapphires, orange sapphires and pink diamonds lit up in sequence. .
"In the name of Emperor Weishan, I order you to stay away from this world!" He said, and the majestic magic power of pink, blue and orange poured into the summoning circle, quickly squeezing the crimson magic power aside. This method of using magic power was learned by Salomon from the guardian of the British Museum. His body does not go through magic power, but directly summons the endless magic power of Emperor Weishan. Although this method of use is crude, it is suitable for the current situation. But very useful.
Seeing that Emperor Weishan's magic power was about to spread throughout the summoning circle, the Hideous demon was scalded by the magic power and howled, its appearance charred black. He quickly waved his crimson palm to indicate that he would not resist. Salomon paused his magic output for a moment. He glanced at Bayonetta. The witch nodded and agreed to Salomon's temporary seizure of control of the magic circle. But Bayonetta still raised her gun, aiming at that hand.
Then the crimson palm made a thumbs up gesture.
A yellowed parchment scroll appeared out of thin air in its palm, with metal lintels at both ends of the scroll. This hand pinched one side, unfolded the scroll, and used magic to send the scroll to Salomon.
"Is this a contract?" Salomon stretched out his hand and used the mage's hand to stop the scroll from approaching him. He took out a magnifying glass from his pocket and began to carefully observe the scroll. This parchment was a bit old, and the corners were cracked. Although Salomon could understand the language written on it, because the contract was too long, he could only read it slowly line by line.
He must make sure there are no unwanted spots, no lace, no obscure punctuation, no typos, no annotations, no overlapping pages. Salomon used a magnifying glass to scan the parchment inch by inch, but did not find any manipulation. This contract can be said to be extremely simple.
Salomon also pulled Bayonetta, who was on guard, over to watch the contract. Because the witch's level of Enochian was much higher than Salomon's, the mystic's biggest concern was the problem of sentence segmentation and comprehension.
But looking at the whole article, this contract is very strict, and even a lawyer can't find any ambiguity.
Salomon spent nearly an hour checking the contract, but there was nothing impatient about the crimson palm. It was still raised there, minding its own business in making animal shadows in the moonlight. . Only when Salomon looked over did it give a thumbs up. I don’t know if it was too sure that the contract would be signed, or if it didn’t care at all.
"This doesn't look like a devil's contract at all," Salomon said. "There is no manipulation at all, but it makes me a little uneasy."
"This is a devil's contract, Boya." Bayonetta said with a frown, "What you are connecting to is the abyss, not hell. Only the devil likes to tamper with the contract."
"Then I'm even more worried." Salomon looked at the self-entertaining finger. The palm that could easily pierce the human body was trying to bend his shadow into a rabbit. "Compared to the devil, I'm more worried about the devil. . Not every demon is willing to abide by the contract, and some demons are more cunning than the devil."
For example, Graz'zt, the Lord of the Triple Realm, is a famous demon king. This demon is very willing to abide by the contract, but he will also tamper with the contract like a devil. You need to be very careful when making deals with guys from the lower planes. When you feel that your wisdom is better than theirs, you will fall into a trap.
"More importantly," Salomon pointed to the contract and whispered to Bayonetta, "this contract has no place for a signature at all."
Yes, this is a signed contract. The contract defines the real names of 72 demons who can be driven. The signer of this contract is called Solomon, and the other party to the contract is a series of countless names. These names were all real names. Although the human throat could not pronounce these names, Salomon still tried his best to remember a few.
"This is not my contract, Belial." Salomon pulled Bayonetta's legs a few steps away, and he shouted at the crimson palm, "I won't give you my soul either, I’m not Solomon either!”
The hand spread out, and a line of writing appeared out of thin air, like a piece of paper on fire: "We hold relevant views and reserve the right to pursue legal action."
"I don't admit it, Belial, I haven't even touched the contract." Salomon was also a little curious at the same time. Isn't Belial a fallen angel and one of the Seven Lords of Hell? Why did you end up in the abyss? Could it be that the person who wanted to sign a contract with him was not Belial?
The palm became visibly frustrated, and then another line of words appeared: "This is a fair deal, and this is to reaffirm the contract."
"Unless the contract is changed, I will not sign it." The mystic took a step back, "Never. I think using sacrifices to summon willing demons is a fair deal."
The owner of the hand seemed to think for a while, then he snapped his fingers, and the few lines on the contract ignited and disappeared, and that clause was the one that sold his soul. Salomon stepped forward again, observed carefully with a magnifying glass, and used a little trick to summon a quill, and began to add conditions to the contract.
Clauses such as "If you add additional terms, you must obtain the consent of the contract signer, and the contract signer must be conscious. If you agree to modify the terms due to magic, drugs, powers, coercion, etc., the contract will be invalid." And Salomon was careful enough to write some words that were difficult to define at a legal level.
For example, the word "wait" is an extremely vague word, indicating that the list is not exhaustive. But this little trick had long been noticed by the owner of that hand. It pointed at the word with its sharp nails, but Salomon just spread his hand and didn't explain much. Anyway, he couldn't be sure whether the devil would abide by the contract, so it was better to be more cautious.
Although I don’t know why Belial had to sign a contract with him, Salomon can still summon demons without signing a contract, but the steps are a little more troublesome. Therefore, no matter what Belial wants to get from him, he must sign a contract with Salomon - now, Salomon is the powerful party.
The crimson palm raised its middle finger and slapped the Hideous demon huddled aside to death, then grabbed the contract and got back into the summoning circle. This puzzled Salomon because he only added some clauses and did not sign at all. He thought about it carefully, and he didn't put blood, hair or anything on the contract or the magic circle.
"What's going on? Legal consulting services? Why doesn't he pay for a lawyer?" the mystic asked, spreading his hands.
But Bayonetta didn't know what happened. As for the knowledge of the lower planes, she only knew the layer where Madam Butterfly was. She had long forgotten the knowledge of the witch clan.
"Now, can you summon the devil?" the witch asked.
"I don't know," the mystic replied, "but I think it would do."
The center of the magic circle where smoke rose was filled with gray-white embers, and in the middle of the ashes, there was a ring.
Salomon suddenly had a feeling that this might also be one of the arrangements of the Supreme Mage.
