Aiwass looked solemn and immediately judged the type of curse: "It's a blood curse."
This is a painful curse that uses poisonous scorpions, poisonous snakes, and living poisonous toads as materials, and uses menstrual blood as a medium to cast a curse. It can make people continuously feel the pain of three times the pain of menstrual cramps. Depending on the resistance to the curse, it can torture people for half a year.
It varies from one hour to six hours.
Sherlock's expression suddenly became solemn, and a dark blue light suddenly bloomed in his pupils.
A cold, rational and mysterious light reflected from the bottom of his pupils. He stretched out the little finger of his left hand and drew a rune like a crutch in the air.
"Water is better than blood, just as the pure is better than the dirty."
While chanting in a low voice, he picked up the bottle of pure water from the table.
Sherlock turned it upside down, but the water did not fall to the ground, but filled the runes.
When it filled up, it suddenly shrank into a ball of water. Then it flew forward and slapped Lulu in the face.
As the water splashed, the pure water turned into putrid blood when it splashed from the face, dripping on the ground.
Lulu's low moans of pain suddenly stopped. But she was still vomiting and bleeding.
Aiwass stretched out his hand to test and found that the back of her neck and chest were unusually cold.
He frowned: "You didn't untie it completely, only half of it."
Sherlock glanced at Lulu and judged from Lulu's symptoms: "This curse is a bit complicated. It seems that her esophagus and stomach are being corroded by the curse, and the medium should not be just menstrual blood. Is this a compound curse? It's up to you... Professional
People who do professional things.”
"Yeah, I'll do it."
"Do you still have enough magic?"
"It's enough to at least cure her."
Aiwass replied.
He lifted Lulu up so that she was half-sitting with her face down to prevent suffocation from the dirty blood she coughed up.
Then Aiwass stretched out his left hand, immersed his five fingers into his wife's thick and dense platinum hair, held the somewhat cold back of her neck with the heel of his palm, and pressed the tip of his left middle finger against the back of her head.
His expression was heavy and solemn, and his blue pupils were as bright as the setting sun.
When he resonates with the path, he blooms with a deep red and golden brilliance, symbolizing the excess of fire element dedicated to the path.
——This is the most obvious therapeutic response to Aiwass’s “Lighting Technique”.
Dark smoke kept pouring out from the back of Lulu's head, even dyeing her platinum hair a little dull. Her body spasmed violently and trembled at a very high frequency. But she gritted her teeth and made no sound.
I was worried about waking up little Aiwass... but there was still an unbearable muffled sound.
"We have guests here and they are not very friendly."
Sherlock said quietly: "Leave it to me and you can continue the treatment."
He reached out and threw the sulfuric acid on the table directly, letting it fall on the wall.
But at the moment when the bottle shattered, he stretched out his right hand and clenched it into a fist, and suddenly punched the bottle at the sulfuric acid bottle.
I saw that the transparent oily concentrated sulfuric acid did not splash out, but was filled with some kind of dark green gas, causing it to bulge slightly...like a fist, but also like a beating heart. Compared with sulfuric acid
It is more viscous, but the volume has increased a lot.
The next moment, Sherlock's right hand opened into a claw and he grasped at the corner not far from where the sulfuric acid bottle landed.
There is an unnatural shadow there, which is gradually becoming clearer and redder.
Long-distance teleportation requires time to manifest. After Lulu was cursed, Sherlock always observed his surroundings.
"Fox" picked a good place. In this closed factory, the brightness should be uniform.
As long as a certain place suddenly becomes dark or bright, it is a sign that the Iron Hook Demon is teleporting in!
The lump of oily green viscous liquid suspended in the air also formed sharp claws and grabbed at that location!
It was like a baby crying or an old cat meowing. A shrill and unusual sound came... It was a high-pitched sound that could penetrate the eardrum and make people feel that something was buzzing in the ear.
But even so, the sleeping little Aiwass was not awakened. He just struggled in pain as if he had a nightmare.
"I hate rude kids."
Sherlock whispered gloomily: "Especially the kind that makes a lot of noise..."
His spells dealt very effective damage and control -
Only calf-high, with a red body, two legs and four arms...the little devil with a head that looks like a fat bald man or a ferocious baby, was grabbed tightly by sulfuric acid claws as soon as it appeared!
A burning sound came, and it was unable to break free for a while.
The sulfuric acid claws made of liquid seemed to have an entity inside, holding it in place and burning it continuously!
——The situation seems to be great, but Sherlock is not happy at all.
Because he could clearly feel that when he was guiding and maintaining the spell, the water and earth mana in his body was burning rapidly.
When he purified the curse on himself, he used a little water attribute mana. He only had the last two points of water attribute mana left.
Even if he used his path characteristics to forcefully use his richest earth attribute mana instead of water attribute mana to activate the bottle of concentrated sulfuric acid, build the "Water Demon Hand", and bear half of the subsequent maintenance mana consumption. But this spell
It still requires at least half of the water attribute mana to maintain.
Two points of water attribute mana, plus two points of earth attribute mana, are only enough to maintain this spell for forty seconds.
It is more than enough for flesh and blood humans.
An activated sulfuric acid claw with a speed of up to 20 meters per second is enough to easily kill a team of ordinary people. The hands of the water demon made of pure water can temporarily melt and penetrate into the armor; and he uses
The hands of the water demon constructed with earth attribute mana can easily crush large trees and tear apart leather armor.
But even so, there is a high probability that the Iron Hook Demon will not be killed. We can only hope to injure it and scare it away.
As long as "Fox" dispels the compound curse on "Lulu" as soon as possible, it will be considered a victory!
Because if there is no cursed person nearby, the Hook Demon cannot move instantly. Then its threat...at least is not that great.
……etc?
Sherlock's expression suddenly changed and he realized something.
curse?
Although he doesn't know much about this, he also knows a principle.
That is, it will become increasingly difficult to curse a person repeatedly. The curse will also increase the curse resistance of the cursed person, and a medium used once cannot be used again.
In other words, within the limited time of four hours, the enemy may only curse each of them once.
If this is the case, Coco may not have built an anti-demon magic circle...but just like him, he directly dispelled the curse on himself, making the positioning useless!
Among the Alexander couple, the first one to be cursed was not the "fox".
——But "Little Aiwass"!
Now if both he and Lulu have been cursed... then it will be the fox's turn next!
Thinking of this, Sherlock's heart sank.
Oops.
This is the shortcoming of the path of devotion.
He can easily remove the curse of others, but he cannot use the illumination technique on himself. It is a secret technique of burning oneself to illuminate others.
By the way, priests can use "Sacrificial Fire"!
...But there are no candles here!
"fox!"
Amidst the Iron Hook Demon's shrill screams, Sherlock suddenly asked loudly: "Can you use 'Sacrificial Fire' on burning wood or chemical reagents?"
"...Do you think too highly of me?"
Aiwass had no choice but to respond loudly: "And the healing power of the Fire Sacrifice Technique is far less powerful than the Illumination Technique. Even if I can use it, I can't dispel the second-level curse at the first level!"
...that's true.
Sherlock didn't know much about the path of consecration. But he just remembered...that Aivas Moriarty is also a priest, but he still has to use a wheelchair. It must be that the source of the damage was too high, so the priest
Fire cannot be dispelled.
Because the priest's "Sacrificial Fire" is essentially "restoration" rather than "healing" and "regeneration". This means that the higher the level of the source of the damage, the more difficult it is to heal. It can really be regarded as "regeneration", only
The ability to rely on the body's own self-healing power to restore health lies in the path of adaptation and balance.
But when the fox said this, Sherlock knew that this smart and cunning young man had also realized the problem.
"Then what are you going to do?"
Sherlock asked.
"What else can be done?"
Aiwass replied briskly: "Aren't we all sure to win?"
With that said, he had successfully dispelled the curse on Lulu.
When he said this, Sherlock knew what Aiwass was going to do.
The Iron Hook Demon's screams suddenly stopped.
This is obviously not death - it is still in good health. It must have been recalled by its owner.
Aiwass relaxed slightly.
"Don't look over here, Mr. Sherlock."
He warned, unbuttoned Lulu's coat, and asked her to lie on her side. He inserted his left hand from the waist of the skirt and directly touched the skin on the chest. He used his remaining light attribute magic power to activate "
Illumination".
"You are."
Sherlock did not look back, but retorted in the same way: "Don't touch her - Miss Lulu is still a young girl."
He mentally added: She is still a princess.
"Of course I know."
Aiwass responded angrily: "Who do you think I am? A beast who attacks children?"
He subconsciously regarded Lulu as a child.
To be polite, Aiwass touched the side behind her heart, not the front.
With the powerful pumping of the heart, the scorching bright mana flowed through the limbs and bones, and the corroded mucous membranes in the throat and stomach regenerated rapidly. This injury on Lulu's body was easy to recover, so Aiwass was used a little.
mana.
After Aiwass withdrew her hand, the first thing Lulu did when she got up was to straighten her clothes.
"...Thank you, Mr. Fox."
Lulu's face turned red, but she still thanked Aiwass seriously: "You didn't have to save me..."
"You mean, kill you?"
Sherlock was the first to react.
"I reject."
Aiwass said lazily: "If it were Basil here, maybe she would do this. But I won't."
After he said that, he walked towards the way he came.
"——Mr. Fox?"
Lulu was startled, subconsciously wondering if she had said something wrong or done something wrong again.
Aiwass stopped, turned back and said leisurely:
"The devil can't find you anymore. But he can still find me... The ceremony will end in one hour. So as long as I don't stay with little Aiwass, we have won.
"Since we need a dedicated person to win at this moment, it can only be me. You guys stay here and don't move around."
Aiwass said, looked at Sherlock, and asked nonchalantly: "Ah, by the way. Is there a dagger? I plan to get some personal belongings, otherwise I'll be a little flustered."
"...Do you want a paper knife?"
Sherlock took out a knife.
It was a paper knife carried by the newsboy, and it had no power at all.
But committing suicide is enough.
Sherlock thought that the fox wanted the knife so that he could kill himself after luring the devil out - that way he could at least avoid the pain of being disemboweled.
"also."
Aiwass took it and said: "It's better than nothing."
"Want me to help you? I can make your death more painless."
"I'd better die outside, otherwise Lulu will be scared."
Aiwass said briskly.
Of course, he definitely didn't want the knife to commit suicide.
As long as you can cut yourself so that you can use the "shepherding method"...otherwise he might have to bite you.
——Yes, pastoral law.
The skill "Pastoring (flesh)" belongs to the path of devotion. It was probably because he had seen it and held the shepherding method that the ritual assigned them the demon "Iron Hook Demon" as their enemy...
They will think that it is possible for them to kill a powerful enemy and find the murderer behind the scenes.
It is because in the difficulty of this mission, in addition to the bone carving and Sherlock, the pastoral method held by Aiwass and the knowledge of demons he possesses are also calculated!
As long as he successfully completes the shepherding method, he can control this lower-level demon.
Even the Shadow Demon can't resist the blood of Aiwass...the Hook Demon is much weaker than the Shadow Demon.
Moreover, the Iron Hook Demon has the intelligence of a three-year-old child, making him the leader in mental retardation even among lower-level demons.
This Iron Hook Demon has not been specially trained in intelligence. His master obviously does not know this skill, or he does not think that there is anyone in Avalon who is familiar with the characteristics of the Iron Hook Demon.
After being caught by Sherlock, it could only squeal and did not know how to use teleportation to escape from its restraints - it could be done with training and special strengthening.
Jack the Ripper has been strengthened in this way, making him much more difficult to deal with.
According to the original and ideal development, the Hook Demon should have descended in front of "Little Aiwass" and then been controlled by Aiwass.
After Sherlock used his wisdom and found everyone, he formed a nine-man group with clearly defined functions and followed the hook demon's clues to find him.
That is indeed the easy difficulty.
But just as the bone sculptures refused to cooperate with them...
This ceremony also did not determine that Aiwass "didn't want to reveal that he had pastoral skills"-especially the idea that he didn't want to be exposed in front of Shylock.
Because of this, the difficulty has been increased so much for no reason.
After all, the identity of the fox must be innocent. This is the superficial identity that Aiwass deliberately created to be exposed.
That's why he deliberately maintained his image in front of the two of them.
What he wants is to use the identity of fox to hide his other identity that transcends the path!
Aiwass was right what he just said.
For Sherlock and Lulu, the ceremony is over - they have won.
Make sure that little Aiwass survives and play to the end. The two necessary tasks have been completed.
But for Aiwass, who is pursuing higher points and exploring the truth... his adventure has just begun.
Aiwass turned his back to the light-transmitting door, hiding his murderous intention, smiled, nodded gently, and waved.
Facing Sherlock, who had a complicated expression, Lulu, who was a little sad, said her last hello and expressed what they thought was her "last words" before she died heroically:
"Keep an eye on 'our child', Lulu. Sing him another lullaby. He doesn't seem to be sleeping peacefully. He seems to have been disturbed.
"Also, Mr. Sherlock. If I have time, I will go find you...if I have time."
They will definitely be impressed by me.
——And now, I'm going to start hunting.
Aiwass thought silently in his heart.
