In the dark church, the flickering candles swayed gently, and the faint light illuminated Ma Wei's face: "If the magic power is insufficient, the magic circle will definitely not be able to start smoothly."
“This possibility cannot be ruled out”
Levin murmured in a low voice: "There is already a lot of magic power in my body. Even my dad said that I am a magic genius that only happens once in a hundred years."
"Does your family have the habit of marrying close relatives to keep your bloodline pure?"
"No, the Bojie family has always had only one son, and the wives are all deceived. Well, they were all married by their own charm."
"Isn't the answer obvious?"
Ma Wei shook his head: "According to what Yunia said before, the reason why the Berger family can use magic is because the ancestor did something unforgivable to the gods and was cursed, and the curse will disappear with the blood. In this case,
Can we assume that the amount of magic power possessed by members of the Berger family is directly proportional to the purity of their bloodline?"
"You mean, the purer the blood, the stronger the magic power?"
"What do you think?"
"It makes sense, but my power is stronger than my father. How do you explain this?"
"I don't know much about genetics, but we can do a simple test."
Ma Wei shrugged, raised his hand to call Xiao Hei, and put the Ruby Golden Crow Eye in front of it: "Xiao Hei, try to see if you can activate the magic circle inside. Don't release it, just activate it."
"Master, if Xiao Hei successfully activates the magic circle, can he take a sip of catnip?" Xiao Hei pulled off Ma Wei's pants and said pitifully: "One sip, one sip will be enough, meow."
"Of course." Ma Wei stroked its back and said softly, "No."
The hope that had just risen in my heart was shattered.
Xiao Hei's head drooped and he almost cried.
"Oh, just one bite, too much is not enough."
"Master, you are the best, meow!"
With hope rekindled, Xiao Hei became energetic. Without hesitation, he picked up the gem wrapped in velvet and began to mobilize the magic power in his body.
One second, two seconds
A minute passed, and even though Xiao Hei had used all his strength to suck the milk, the gem didn't react at all.
In the end, perhaps due to the excessive consumption of magic power, Xiao Hei suddenly fainted while holding the gem. With a 'boom' sound, he hit his forehead heavily on the bench, as if he were a devout pilgrim.
Not to mention it was activated, the Ruby Golden Crow Eye was a pool of stagnant water, reflecting a faint glow under the candlelight without any ripples.
"Xiao Hei? Xiao Hei!"
Ma Wei pushed the unconscious cat and felt relieved when he found that it had just passed out.
"Look, it has nothing to do with the amount of magic power! Blackie can't activate it either!" Levin said.
"Yunia is taking a bath upstairs. Let her try again later. If even the goddess can't do it, then this situation will be very strange."
As he pondered, Ma Wei suspected that the magic circle might be broken, just like a household appliance. If there is no problem with the power, then the problem must be with the machine itself.
Thinking of this, Ma Wei carefully picked up the Eye of the Golden Crow and observed it carefully with the help of the light of the kerosene lamp.
The Golden Crow Eye, with its edges inlaid with gold, is flawless on the outside, without any impurities inside, and is as transparent as clear water.
Only when magic power is injected, the magic circle will quietly emerge. The magic power input by Xiao Hei flows and swims in it. The mysterious and complicated patterns are breathtaking. At a glance, it seems that even the soul is being sucked away.
After confirming that the magic circle was not damaged, Ma Wei picked up the Heart of the Jungle and the Tears of the Siren and compared them one by one. This time he discovered some differences.
If the magic circle in Tears of the Siren and Heart of the Jungle uses a special symbol as the heart, the outer circle as the limbs, and the dense lines of thorns as the blood vessels, then the magic circle in the Eye of the Golden Crow is completely different.
There are no special symbols or dense thorns inside, just a standard six-pointed star array. In the middle of the star array, there is a closed eye, which is lifelike. Ma Wei can even see the tiny eyelashes and textures around the eye.
Like a living thing.
The magic power entered by Xiao Hei wandered in the six-pointed star array, and was bounced away as soon as it touched his eyes, unable to penetrate at all.
And at the bottom of the eye, there is a line of swaying small characters, which are blurry and unclear, as if shrouded in a layer of gray fog, making it difficult to peek.
"Strange. Really strange." Ma Wei was amazed, raised his head and asked: "Where did you get this Golden Crow Eye?"
"I don't know. My dad never mentioned its origin."
Levin answered truthfully: "Anyway, this gem has been hung around my father's neck since I can remember. Even the Heart of the Jungle, which has the ability to travel through space, does not have this kind of treatment."
"Does anything strange happen when you wear it?"
"It seems there is, but it seems there isn't."
"Is it true or not? Can I give you a sure letter?"
Ma Wei suddenly felt that Levin was a bit unreliable. He didn't care about such an important thing. A gem that could be treated seriously by his father must not be a waste!
"Don't worry, let me think"
Raising his hand to signal Mavey to stop talking for the time being, Levin sipped the brandy and began to think hard.
Under the stimulation of strong alcohol, memories gradually emerged. He thought about what happened when he first came into contact with the Eye of the Golden Crow, and said in a deep voice: "Well, there should be no such thing."
"you sure?"
"Sure."
Levin nodded and was about to speak when the door frame of the confessional room he was leaning on suddenly broke. He lost his balance and fell backwards. Ma Wei, who was staring at him, raised his eyebrows and reacted immediately, grabbing his arm.
arm.
The sharp wooden thorn was only a finger width away from Levin's fragile neck.
If he was one step slower, his blood would be splattered on the spot.
"Damn it! Can't you find a good carpenter?"
Levin, who had escaped the disaster, was still frightened. He kicked the confession room and cursed: "You can't cut corners on building furniture! How dangerous it is!"
"My confessional was just bought three years ago. It uses a mortise and tenon structure. During mass last month, Mr. Jacobs was drunk and dragged a group of people on top of it. It was fine. Why did it break when you touched it?"
Already?"
"It must have left a hidden danger!"
Levin glared at the confessional and took two steps to the side, determined not to come near it again.
rustle
rustle
Wisps of dust fell from the sky and sprinkled on Levin's head.
"What the hell?"
Levin brushed the dust off his hair and looked up.
A huge bluestone on the ceiling is teetering and may fall down at any time.
"Hell, hell, hell! Boss, this church is an ancient relic!"
Amid the strange screams, Levin ducked to the side to avoid the path of the falling bluestone. Just as he was about to continue complaining, a football suddenly flew in from the window, grazed Mavey's scalp, and accurately hit his cheek.
Boom, boom, boom!
Boom, boom, boom!
"Father! Father!"
There was a knock on the door outside the church, and the children living on Kerr Street shouted: "Sorry! We accidentally kicked the football in!"
"."
Ma Wei was stunned for a while, turned to look at Levin, who was covering his nose and also stunned, and swallowed: "Are you sure nothing strange happened?"
"Give me back the Eye of the Golden Crow! Quick!!!"
