Chapter 38 Reaction

 When he first obtained the occult knowledge, Lumian was most looking forward to the "art of exorcising ghosts", which seemed to be the perfect solution to Susanna Matisse's problem, if she had not been completely eliminated by the official Beyonders.<

/p>

After actually browsing "The Art of Exorcising Ghosts", Lumian realized that he was happy too early.

This ritual magic can indeed drive away resentful souls and even evil spirits, and prevent them from entangled with each other, but there are two prerequisites. One is to know the ghost's true name and get something she carried during her lifetime, and the other is to have enough

, the time used to hold ceremonies.

The second premise determines that the art of exorcism cannot be used in fierce battles. It is more suitable for the situation where Charlie had repeatedly dreamed of Susanna Mathis before, and was entangled by resentful spirits or evil spirits, but it would disappear for a while.

Still not dead.

Now Lumian has not been substantially harmed by Susanna Matisse. At most, she is targeting the art of exorcising ghosts. "There is no corresponding target and there is no way to exorcise them.

When Susanna Matisse strikes again, she will not treat Lumian gently. She will absorb his energy through erotic dreams and lead him to death step by step. Judging from the hatred and paranoia she showed before, it will inevitably

It is to directly take action and use various extraordinary abilities to kill the target on the spot.

In that case, Lumian would have no time to use the ghost exorcism technique unless someone blocked him for two or three minutes.

Do I want to use official extraordinary people? But that also means that I am known by the official, and the follow-up trouble will be huge...

"Or let Charlie sacrifice himself, comfort Susanna Mathis with touching words of love, and accompany her to do that thing in reality? The longer he lasts, the greater my hope of completing the exorcism.

But, this method is weird, it has a sense of familiarity with underground literature, Lumian muttered silently.

Although the current Intis Republic uses freedom as its slogan, it is not actually that free.

On the one hand, in order to prevent Russell's worshipers from seeking restoration, the Carbonari party tried to subvert the current regime, and the opposition shook the prestige of the ruling party. On the other hand, it was also influenced by the desire to make peace with the conservative Church of the God of Steam and Machinery.

Due to pressure from the church, the Republic of Intis has always had a rather strict publication review policy.

They will even arrange spies or develop certain writers as spies to monitor active creators to ensure that they do not promote things that affect the image of the ruling party, and do not allow content that is too pornographic or too critical of the clergy to be presented.

In front of the broad readership.

Wherever there is a ban, there is a violation. Trier has developed a flourishing underground literary market, which has spilled over to the province of Kitta.

Aurore once bought a few books out of curiosity, and stopped her brother from reading them, and hid them in the most secret corner of the bookcase. However, if there is a prohibition, it is a violation. Lumian secretly read one of them and was greatly shocked.
That book is a collection of criticism of religious authority, criticism of the luxury and depravity of clergy, and the spread of pornographic content. It is called "The Monk Chasing the Dog".

The plan that Lumian just imagined using Charlie to seduce Susanna Matisse has the style of some underground literature.

Moreover, there are no items that Suzanne Matisse carried during her lifetime as a medium. In the past few days, you can try to check where the things she left behind are. Regardless of whether they can be used in the end, you will not be afraid of disaster if you are prepared.<

/p>

Lumian pulled back his thoughts and evaluated the other issues.

What role can the four types of ritual magic play and what meaning do they have to you?

In his opinion, "The art of creating and accumulating energy is both very magical, evil, weird and frightening."

This can play an incredible role when used properly. For example, it can turn captives into sheep, cattle, horses and other animals, and take them away openly. For example, it can allow oneself to blend in as an animal in places where it would otherwise be impossible to blend in, but most of the time

, especially in fierce battles, this ritual magic is almost useless.

According to the occult knowledge poured into Lumian's head, the object of prayer for the art of animal creation can be either the hidden existence named by fate, or it can be the honorable name that is attached to someone who does not know who it is given this time.

, you can still be yourself.

Of course, the premise is that you have enough spirituality and the corresponding personality, and the probability of the ritual's success is much lower than the previous two methods, and the same is true for the time the effect can last.

In the Art of Making Animals, the minimum requirement for status is to reach Sequence 7 "Contracted Person". The higher the status, the more likely the ritual will be successful and the better the effect will be. There is the pollution of the seal in the body, but Lumian is

I am not worried about whether my personality is sufficient, but I am not sure whether my spirituality can support the consumption of animal-making skills. If so, how many times can I withstand it?

In addition to the "Art of Making Animals", the remaining four ritual magics can also use oneself as the object of prayer. As for the probability of success and the effect, that is another matter.

Based on this, Lumian suspects that these five ritual magics can be simplified in a higher order and can be initially used in actual combat. For example, as long as the enemy is wrapped in sheepskin and recited a preset incantation, he can directly

Turn him into a sheep.

"It seems that it is impossible to achieve the contracted person equivalent to Sequence 7. The status of the person in the ring of Sequence Lie 4 is too high and does not match this simple spell. Therefore, it is a Life Hunter of Sequence 5.

Does it come with a similar simplification, or is it Sequence 6 whose name I currently don't know?"

Lumian subconsciously made an analysis.

As for the art of fortune, he feels that currently it can only be used to help others, and he should not be able to use it on himself, because

His destiny was deeply affected by the pollution of the seal in his body and the great being who sealed the pollution. Unless he directly prayed to the power of fate, it would be impossible to change his fate. That is, only at the stage of the life hunter could he selectively choose a period of time.

The fates involving those high-level beings are exchanged.

The "Substitution Technique" is too complicated and will seriously affect Lumian's daily life and other tasks. It's not that there are no other ways, he will not consider using it.

In comparison, the art of prophecy is a ritual magic that is not too difficult to complete and is quite useful.

Lumian has already planned to collect corresponding information, find such a body, analyze the approximate time frame of Susanna Mattis's next attack by asking about Charlie's future, and find Pua by asking about Louis Lund's future.

Mrs. Leith and their whereabouts.

Dog saliva, lynx entrails, hyena tongues, stag marrow, sea monster or water monster meat, lizard eyes, eagle's nest stones, snake venom sacs and deadly herbs.

It’s not too difficult to find these materials. The only troublesome thing is the meat pieces of sea monsters or water monsters, but the ritual requirements don’t say what level they must be. In theory, the weakest water monster is also a water monster, but the effect is not that good?”

Lumian thought for a while and saw that the spirit had recovered a lot, and he was ready to leave the underground quarry and return to the Golden Rooster Hotel.

He just stood up and suddenly frowned.

He heard a small sound, and the sound was echoing in his ears!

Lumian forced himself to calm down and listened carefully to the content of the voice.

Gradually, in his perception, the sound became clearer, deeper and more magnificent.

"Lumian Lee"

Do you know my name? Lumian, holding the carbide lamp, looked around instinctively, but couldn't find a single figure or anything unusual.

"Lumian Lee!"

"Lumian Lee!"

The sound rang out in waves, as if it came from the depths of Lumian's mind and from inside his body. It was blocked by flesh and blood, organs and bones, forming layers of echoes.

Inside his body, as soon as Lumian had such a recognition, he had a certain guess in his heart. He suppressed his voice and asked in a low voice: "Who are you? That rich, majestic and illusory voice no longer shouted repeatedly, solemnly

Said: I am the angel of the Lord, Thermipolos, which Lord is my Lord?" Lumian's eyes were faint and the corners of his mouth raised.

He suspected that the person speaking was the "pollution" sealed in his body. After he obtained the gift of "Mendicant Monk" and got closer to the existence named Head Fate, the other party reluctantly used the connection between powers to

It conveys the voice without contamination.

Suddenly, Lumian kept turning around and looking to his side, as if there were invisible people staring at him one after another in the darkness around him.

This made him panic, it made him uneasy, it made him almost crazy.

At this moment, a faint gray mist came from nowhere and enveloped the area, and Lumian's mental state was greatly calmed down.

He sneered at Thermepolos, who called himself an angel.

Are you the guy sealed in my body?

I don’t know whether they are real angels with extraordinary characteristics or angel-level servants who only have gifts...

This kind of provocation made Lumian's fleshy potion seem to fade a little.

Thermipolos was neither angry nor angry, and still said solemnly and solemnly, "As long as you follow my instructions

Please tell me to come out of the seal, and I will help you resurrect Aurore Lee.

You should know very well that our Lord's power involves the past, present and future, and can make destiny form a cycle.

When the time comes, I will return the soul fragments of Aurore Lee to the state before the advent ceremony began, and you only need to prepare a body with vitality for her.

Lumian fell silent, and after a while he asked in a low voice: "The advent ceremony is to create a body for you to descend.
