"Evandi?" Harley's expression changed, "Is it the legendary vicious baby, the demon Avanti?"
“Your magic ability is not good, but your knowledge is not that shallow.” The evil spirit laughed strangely.
The crow is a product of black magic called the "message bird". It is very evil. It is made of tortured souls and is full of resentment and hatred towards living people.
It is not a "modern black magic" like the "Magic Book of Truth", but a witchcraft before the birth of human civilization.
To put it bluntly, all black magic is the exploration of the power of darkness and chaos by human "wise men", and the understanding of hell and demons.
Just like philosophical books such as "Tao Te Ching", it is the understanding of the relationship between heaven, earth and man.
In different eras, philosophers with different ideas were born.
Different eras have given birth to distinctive black magic.
Compared with the ancient black magic of the Wizarding Group, "falling into hell" and "driving demons" in "The Grimoire of Truth" have become child's play.
For example, the demon Avanti: takes a six-month-old baby, supplements it with black magic, turns innocence into evil, and turns holiness into extreme depravity. In the end, the living baby turns into a ghost that can freely switch between yin and yang.
Crazy murderous baby Avanti.
That thing is only briefly mentioned in the "Magic Book of Truth", and there is no specific witchcraft or manufacturing process. However, many black magicians who wrote the "Magic Book of Truth" all list it as a taboo among taboos.
With Harry's current knowledge, he has only heard of this kind of man-made demon.
Black magic sends the soul to hell, rather than turning the soul into a demon. The demon is a kind of hell creature, which is completely different from the fallen human soul.
Even if a dark wizard turns himself into a zombie, it is not a demon from hell. The corpse is still in the world.
Avanti is a real demon. It was created in the human world and can travel between hell and the material world at will under the guidance of a dark wizard.
Now, the "messaging bird" of the wizarding group actually said that he would give her an Avanti.
Harley is more scary than surprising.
Well, she wasn’t happy at all.
“Should you give me a ready-made Avanti, or teach me the black magic of making Avanti?” Harley asked with a frown.
“Of course it is made on site. Avanti always has only one owner, and that is the wizard who created it.”
The messenger Crow Jiejie smiled strangely and said: "I have to remind you that Avanti is extremely powerful, but the failure rate is also extremely high. As for the consequences of failure, losers don't need to consider the consequences."
Harley pondered: "So, this is a big gathering of the wizarding group. Are there many junior members like me participating?"
The smoke-like undead made an exaggerated expression of surprise, "You are not too stupid. Three days later, on a full moon night, St. James's Cathedral on the outskirts of Jersey City."
"Church?" Harry was surprised, "Another bishop-level priest has fallen?"
“Hehehehe, in terms of the number of people who go to hell, ordinary people definitely exceed priests. In terms of proportion and quality, the number of priests who have become demons far exceeds ordinary people.
It is difficult for ordinary people to have access to supernatural power, and regular church priests will receive certain exorcism training.
At least have seen the church’s classic exorcism cases.
Exorcism and summoning demons are like two sides of a silver coin. Once you are confused by desire, you will fall too easily, such as "
"I!"
“Quack, quack, I was once a Vatican cardinal, quack, quack”
The undead monster smiled and turned into a messenger crow, fluttering its wings and flew away.
With an expressionless face, Harley returned to the meditation room, drew a pentagram pattern on the floor with chalk, filled in some runes, and lit a candle in each of the five corners of the pentagram.
She sat in the center of the magic circle, with her five hearts in the sky.
“Rejoice!”
There is no need for complicated spells, the real name is the foundation.
"Huhuhu" is like a strong wind passing by and the candle flame swaying.
Suddenly, "Puff, puff, puff, puff", the yellow flames of the five candles suddenly lost their color, and a deep well seemed to appear under Harry, falling continuously in the darkness.
Then, she landed on her feet, stood and turned her head to look around. She was standing on the rooftop of a building, and the surrounding street scene was very familiar.
That’s Gotham.
A dilapidated Gotham that has weathered over the course of time for thousands of years.
It was so dilapidated that her glass loft didn’t even leave any trace, and the warehouse under her feet was full of holes, like a ruined wall.
"What's going on?" A white naked "asexual man" wrapped around a red barbed wire was suspended in the air a few meters away. His long red hair was like seaweed, floating freely in all directions.
“Aren’t you happy?” Harley said hesitantly.
Although the image was almost exactly the same, and the sound and magic power fluctuations were indistinguishable, she just felt that it was not joy.
“I am not joy, I am its twin brother pain.” The Pain Demon looked surprised.
“You can actually tell that although we are not very talented in magic, your spiritual sense is very strong. It’s a pity.”
“Am I very talented? I am only 14 years old, thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. Don’t look down on others!” Harley said unconvinced.
Pain gave a sarcastic smile, "According to the levels of magic apprentices classified by you human mages, formal mage, great magician, magic master, spiritual mage, you can't even be considered an apprentice, because you don't have a trace of magic in your body.
As for age, age has never been a limit for magic.
99% of great magicians activate the magic power in their bodies at the moment they come into contact with the spell."
Harley was a little skeptical of what he said, because in her own experience, magic was almost a legendary existence, and her group of friends, namely Constantine, were suspected of possessing magic.
Forget it, she has only been exposed to magic for "only half a year". Like Richie and Judith, they both have "Tao Xing" for more than five years.
Zhi Qi has even mastered quantum magic, but you say he has no talent?
“Brother Pain, I am the undercover agent placed by Brother Huanxi in the wizard group, do you know?”
"Don't call us brother, you don't deserve it!" Pain said lightly, and then asked: "Is there any news?"
Sooner or later I’ll let you call me grandma!
With a harsh word in mind, Harry told the wizards and wizards together with a sullen face.
“Hey, such a trivial matter.” He shook his head in pain and sighed: “As long as it is not directly related to the giant beast, it is a trivial matter and there is no need to tell us.
In other words, your only purpose in the wizarding group is to find out how and when they awaken the giant beast."
Harry frowned and said, "Last time, Boss Huanxi asked me to reduce the frequency of supernatural events as much as possible."
“Yes, you can stop them, but what do you want from me?”
Harley was speechless, "Just now you thought I had poor talent and didn't even have a trace of magic power, and now you want me to deal with Avanti and a more powerful witch master?"
"The witch master is also a human being, and he will die even if he is shot. Aren't you very good at fighting? Just like how you dealt with the Crusaders, even a hundred witch masters can't resist it if you use the Vulcan cannon." He said painfully.
Harley’s face is twisted, the dark wizard, the big devil, and the Vulcan cannon are all connected together, it’s really awkward.
Don’t be surprised, the devil is an alien!
She comforted herself in her mind and said: "If I take action, won't my identity be exposed? Moreover, Avanti can travel between the shadow world and reality at will, so it is difficult to hit with physical attacks!"
"It's really troublesome. He's obviously a disposable pawn, but he thinks he's a big shot," Pain complained "quietly" in front of Harley.
Harley's face turned cold, and she began to think carefully about whether to force the bastard Pain to the material world, and then use the Vulcan Cannon to blast it.
Pain is definitely a Duke-level or higher-level demon. The binding circle on the "Book of Truth" seems to be a bit low-level and not enough.
She needs the Trap God Circle.
Benjamin once mentioned in the group that in history, there were magicians who used formations to trap gods.
Just when she was being rebellious and thinking wildly, pain spoke again.
“I’ll give you two choices, either you can do nothing and attend the party honestly. Once you create your own Avanti, you will definitely be promoted to a high position in the wizarding group.
Either I give you the real name of a superior demon, and you can use your blood essence and poems as sacrifices, or you can set up a Vulcan cannon, kill the witch masters and wizards, and use their blood and souls as sacrifices to summon the demon.
Deal with Avanti."
This plan seems to be okay
Harley thought for a while and asked: "Is the upper demon strong enough? Avanti is the demon of killing and the king of resentful babies."
“Don’t I understand Avanti better than you?” Pain said breathlessly.
“Okay, I choose the second option.” Harley said.
“Son of Baal, brother of Merlin, the demon Etrigan!” Pain read out these words in magical language.
"Son of Baal" Harley asked with great interest: "Is he the prince of the Demon King? Is such a being willing to accept the summons? And Merlin, he is actually the son of Baal and humans?"
"If you have any questions, just ask Etrigan. As long as you use the spell I gave you to summon him, he will respond to you at least once."
The surrounding scene suddenly changed, and Harley returned to her meditation room.
She did not leave, wiped away the pentagram circle, and began to communicate with the voice of heaven again.
"Great voice of heaven, I report to you: under your guidance, I became an undercover agent of the Legion of Eternal Punishment in Heaven, and then under the order of the Legion of Eternal Punishment, I became an undercover agent of the Evil Witches of Hell. Now"
She told everything about what happened before, including the real name of the demon prince who sent her pain, and finally asked: "I wonder what heaven's attitude will be towards this gathering of evil witches?"
“Saving the baby and killing the evil wizard are all considered meritorious deeds.”
Harry was a little disappointed that the Voice of Heaven did not give her an "angel's true name".
“Hello, Sister Laurie, it’s me.” Harry told the story of the gathering of wizards for the third time.
“Well, let me transfer you to the Shadow Bureau.”
After pondering for a moment, Laurie felt that he was really not good at this kind of thing.
"Hey, I'm 'fathertime', the director of the Shadow Bureau. Everyone calls me 'father'. Are you Harley Quinn? I didn't expect you to become a secret agent, but that's okay.
With the U.S. government as your big backer, you can write with peace of mind. I wrote the recent "Three-Body Problem"
A cute lolita voice, crackling, and speaking like spitting bullets. Harley didn't interrupt for a long time.
After a long time, the other party asked her to send a signed set of "Red Manhattan" before Harley said awkwardly: "Thank you for liking my book, but how are you going to deal with this gathering of the Wizarding Group?"
