031: Ritual

The group of people came to a room next to Heath's laboratory on the second floor. After the soldiers left, many rooms became vacant in the other courtyard, so Heath made an empty room specifically for this experiment.

At this moment, a large six-pointed star magic array has been drawn with magic stones in the center of the room. It consists of a main array and dozens of auxiliary arrays. It densely covers nearly half of the ground and looks very complicated.

Animal bones, crow's tail grass, lizard tails and other various messy materials are placed on top, surrounded by white candles in a circle, giving people a very evil feeling.

Heath said to Rom: "Take off your shirt and sit down in the center of the magic circle."

"Oh...ok, sir."

Rom took off his shirt and sat down in the magic circle, shirtless. Heath then walked over and picked up a bowl of animal blood on the ground, and wrote strange words on Rom's body with his fingers.

runes.

This animal blood is prepared with the blood essence extracted from the scarred bear, and then activated by the blood of the fire bear. The power of the bloodline is very sufficient.

Soon, Roma's body was covered with dense runes, and combined with the surrounding environment, it looked even more evil, which inexplicably made people feel a dark feeling in their hearts.

The magic of bloodline fusion originates from the abyss, which is a place that combines darkness and evil. Therefore, all magic related to the abyss naturally brings out this temperament, which is inevitable in the nature of magic.

Heath gave the final warning with a serious face: "There will be some pain after the ceremony begins...it may even be very painful, but no matter what happens, you must not move, let alone leave the magic circle. You

Be sure to remember it!”

After a pause, he warned very solemnly: "Otherwise you will die!"

"Oh...Okay...Okay, sir." Rom looked a little nervous, and his voice was trembling when he spoke.

Heath smiled and said: "Don't be so nervous, it will be done soon."

The ceremony officially began.

Heath went to the corner and took out a staff that was leaning there. It was a long-handled staff, more than one and a half meters long. It was completely black and had strange red patterns engraved on it.

This is a sacrificial staff made of black abyss wood. It is specially engraved with runes to activate the magic circle. It is very effective when used to perform some magic rituals. It was Hist's special excuse that he might have to go to war with the local nobles.

The brilliance of the sea of ​​trees comes from kiang.

Holding the sacrificial staff, Heath came to the magic circle and took a deep breath:

'Ancestors bless you!'

Then he held the sacrificial staff and gently stroked it along the path of the magic circle on the floor, and at the same time began to chant a spell: "Wherever the sacrificial ceremony passes... the magic opens... Offer the magic circle made of blood and bones."

Sacrifices...build bridges across the abyss..."

Wherever the sacrificial staff crossed, the candles were lit one after another, and the magic circle gradually began to light up red lines. These lines intertwined into a network, and finally formed a circular shape on the ground in front of Rom.

The swirly pattern looks like a unique door or opening.

Accompanied by the obscure chanting of mantras, the circular spiral pattern began to recede layer by layer, like a door being opened, and a circular hole appeared on the floor.

The soldiers looked towards the entrance of the cave and could only see darkness, as if the small entrance led to an endless abyss. An inexplicable coldness swept through everyone's heart, making them involuntarily fight.

A shiver.

Suddenly, a big eye floated up from the circular hole, covering the entire hole. It looked extremely terrifying, and the soldiers felt their scalps numb.

The eyes turned and glanced around, and finally landed on Rom in front. After a brief pause, a red light shot out of the eyeballs, shining on the runes written all over Rom's body, and

They glanced over one by one, seemingly verifying something, and every time they were swept by red light, the runes would light up automatically.

Soon, the last rune on Rom's body was lit up, and then the eyeball gradually retreated downwards, and then disappeared from everyone's eyes, as if it had sunk into the endless abyss.

.

"Crash!" After a while, a crisp sound came.

Tentacles as thick as a finger suddenly poured out from the hole, and they were so densely packed that they looked like the tentacles of an octopus in the deep sea.

Mother of the Abyss.

It is a legendary giant that lives in the abyss. Its whole body is composed of countless eyes and countless tentacles. It has the power of giving blood. Any body licked by its tentacles can fight the anomalies covering the body.

The blood vessels fuse to obtain the powerful power in the blood vessels.

'What a weird monster!'

Seeing the thousands of tentacles pouring out, Heath, the instigator, was also amazed.

Like the Contracted Apostle, the Abyss Mother is also a rule-based substance that has existed in the world since the birth of the world. It is a kind of rule that is similar to the "gravity" and "Moore's Law" on the blue star.

The difference is that the rules and laws on Blue Star are fictitious and cannot be seen or touched, while the rules and laws here actually exist in a concrete way.

As Heath watched, thousands of tentacles quickly rolled towards Rom in front and licked his exposed skin, and the skin licked by these tentacles immediately cracked open.

, as if the tentacles were some sort of sharp blade.

'It's about to begin!'

At the same time, the lit symbols on Rom's body seemed to come alive, like a tadpole swimming in the water, swimming one after another towards the nearest wound and quickly scurrying into it.

Soon, all the runes covering Rom's body poured into his body and disappeared, leaving only a strange pattern the size of a fist on his chest.

"Crash!"

With a crisp sound, the thousands of tentacles retracted back, sinking into the dark hole and disappearing like the big eyeball before.

The hole was covered with spiral patterns again, and then the patterns retreated into the magic circle like threads peeling off cocoons. Finally, the magic circle dimmed and the candles were extinguished... Soon, everything returned to calm.

Everything seemed like nothing had happened. Only the countless small wounds left on Rom's body showed that everything that happened before was not an illusion.

Heath quickly stepped forward: "Rom, how are you?"

At this moment, Roma's body was covered in wounds. Although the wounds were not big, they were densely covered with blood and looked very scary.

Hearing Heath's call, he opened his eyes and said, "But...is it okay? Sir?"

Heath nodded: "Okay, but don't move now while I treat your injuries."

After saying that, he waved his staff and chanted the spell again.

Along with the chanting of the spell, the wounds on Rom's body began to squirm as if they came to life. The damaged skin, muscles and body tissues quickly extended outwards and quickly intertwined, closed, and scarred...

The wound heals quickly and at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Muscle regeneration: Dark type [status gain]-like spell, which uses magic power to stimulate the growth of body cells and allow wounds to heal quickly.

This is a new spell that Heath has mastered after condensing the fifth [Status] rune. It belongs to the dark necromancy discipline. Its function is similar to ordinary healing spells. It can quickly heal injuries.

He studied specifically for this ceremony.

Ike and the others have been breaking through the 2.3 measurement attribute for some time. The reason why they started the ceremony now is mainly because Heath is waiting for this spell. After all, without proper treatment, the injuries after the ceremony are not so easy to deal with.

Soon, the injuries on Rom's body were intact, leaving no scars at all.

In terms of healing techniques, although the magic techniques of the necromancy discipline are not pleasing to the eye, their effects are second only to those of the light discipline.

Heath said: "Okay."

Roma breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stood up.

The three people from behind, Ike, hurried over and asked impatiently:

"Rom, how are you?"

"Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? How do you feel now?"

Rom replied to them one by one: "I'm fine, I don't feel uncomfortable anywhere, I don't feel anything."

Everyone's eyes looked a little weird for a moment. The Roman in front of them seemed to have not changed much, except for a strange pattern on his chest. Did he really have the powerful power that the adults said?

Rapp asked: "Power? Where's the power? Do you feel the power? Rom."

Rom clenched his fists and said in confusion: "I don't seem to feel much. It doesn't seem much different from before, but I feel like there is something extra in my body... Hmm... I can't tell... It just seems like it's too much.

It’s like an arm, what’s going on, sir?”

He looked at Heath.

Ike and others also looked at Heath.

Heath was staring at Roma at this time. The ceremony went smoothly beyond his expectation, which made him very satisfied.

After hearing Rom's question, he raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Well, then, you can use the extra 'arm' you feel to punch Lapp... Well, Lapp

Please take care of yourself while holding this."

Heath handed over an oak shield.

The two sides then stood facing each other, and the soldiers dispersed to the side.

"Are you ready? Rapp!"

"Come on horseback!"

Rapp acted as if nothing had happened. It was common for them to compete with each other with their fists after training for so long. In fact, he felt that even the shield was redundant.

Rom raised his fist and began to try to use the extra 'arm'.

Immediately.

But he saw the pattern on his chest suddenly light up, and densely packed runes quickly poured out of it like scurrying tadpoles, and quickly covered Rom's body, and then disappeared into the skin as if they were integrated with his body.

.

At this moment, Rom suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of power. The powerful power was like a volcano that had been suppressed for a long time, erupting instantly!

"Roar!" Uncontrollably, he suddenly roared like a giant bear.

Immediately afterwards, he retracted his elbow and punched Rapp.

"Crack-boom!"

Two short syllables sounded, and a hole was punched out of the oak shield that was a finger thick enough to withstand the long hair. Rom's fist hit Rapp's shoulder with unabated force, and only a bang was heard.

Lapu was so beaten that he flew up and hit his head hard against the stone wall. He passed out without saying a word.

Everyone was stunned.

Only Heath still looked the same as before, with an even bigger smile on his face.

'This power...'

'It's really... quite good!'
