Circle of Inevitability

Chapter 245: Summon the object

Views:

If it were still in Cordu Village, faced with this kind of thing, Lumian would probably pick up the invitation letter, find the end of the month, go to the "Different" dance hall with a playful attitude, play a big prank, and return all the scares he had just received.

But now, having gained some understanding of the world of mysticism and having experienced many anomalies, he flicked his finger, causing a red spark to fly out and land on the black cardboard.

In the rapidly expanding firelight, Lumian, holding a calcium carbide lamp, left the quarry cave and walked towards the nearest underground Trier exit.

On the way, he doubted this and that, and felt that the moss on the rock wall, the insects in the darkness, and the invisible things in the air had all turned into Monitor's eyes, staring at him motionlessly.

This couldn't even be called an illusion, but it made Lumian's mind extremely tense and his heart beat violently.

The only thing that comforted him was that Thermopylae did not speak, did not show any anxiety or worry, and the problem did not seem to be serious.

A quarter of an hour later, Lumian climbed up the steel stairs and reached the ground.

When the clear sunlight penetrated the blue sky and white clouds and shone on his face, he felt like he was finally alive.

Phew, no wonder the “Magician” lady said that we should try to live in the sunshine of Trier... Lumian turned off the calcium carbide lamp, identified his location, and returned to White Coat Street.

After entering the safe house, the first thing he did was to summon the messenger of the "Magician" lady to tell the holder of the Major Arcana card about the subsequent developments.

I think that paying a price to sign a contract with spiritual beings is itself a form of "bribery", and "decency" may play a certain role in that kind of scenario.

Mr. Fool's "Angels of Time" would care about the problems of the "One with the Crowd" dance hall? There really is no "Angel of Time"... The angels believed by the scammers in the "One with the Crowd" dance hall don't have some degree of connection or hatred with Mr. Fool's "Angels of Time"? Lumian thought about it for a while and thought he understood the specific situation.

Dressed in a red wedding gown with gold patterns, it hunted and cursed its own clan crazily, causing us to suffer all kinds of disasters in the past eighty years until our bloodline was cut off.

It was based on that characteristic of the "swollen severed hand" that Lumian believed it had a weaker "spiritual world travel" ability.

As for the ability to disguise, the spirit creature I'm interested in is the "Headed Bride":

Before pinning the brooch, Jiang Binyi looked at the eight candles burning quietly, took a deep breath, and prepared to hold the ceremony.

Aside from the scream, they don't possess all of the qualities of a Shadow.

Lumian was quite moved after reading the two pieces of information.

“I am a teacher in the Sein region of the Upper Honachis Province of the Intis Republic, and I am loved and admired by the ladies and sisters.

Such a design can ensure that Jiang Binyi can take out the sealed object quickly and accurately, without having to pour out the wine to search for it or feel inside with two fingers.

Today, the "Headed Bride" is active in the spirit world. It will transform into a different appearance, lure surrounding creatures and passing "travelers" to approach, and kill us.

As for its safety level, according to the description of the "magician" man, it can only be considered special, and it will be bound by the power of the summoning ceremony.

"It appears to be part of a living organism."

The "Screaming Shadows" are a small group of transparent shadows that blend together. They scream frequently, making creatures that approach them fall into a coma.

The first is the "abscessed hand", a creature that once left a legend in the central and southern regions - it was summoned by some occultists and strangled everyone present.

There is no definite connection between the "Thousand-Eyed Evil Creature" and dreams. Outside of the horrific dreams recorded, its presence is occasionally seen at the deepest and most terrifying levels.

Of course, there is another possibility. This is not

The rest of "Swelling Broken Hand" falls into the "Weak" and "Safe" categories, and is read by Franca, Janna, and the "Knowledge Rabbit".

When faced with the shadows reflected by the white pupils of these thousands of white eyeballs, no matter whether the target is a human, a beast, or a creature with only a spirit left, it will quickly fall asleep and sink into a deep sleep.

If the arm is not broken, then the leg, head, torso, and internal organs are still intact? What will happen if they meet each other? They must be reassembled, so what will they become? Lumian recalled the process of looking through the index after the class. He did not find similar creatures. After all, I mainly browsed the abilities, characteristics, and safety levels, and paid attention to the corresponding names.

The man may not be ordinary himself, or he may have come into contact with things related to the spirit world during his elopement. Therefore, under the catalysis of the joy, satisfaction, resentment and malicious emotions after death, he absorbed the power from the spirit world and turned into a creature similar to an evil spirit.

The fire outside had been put out long ago, and the house was completely white, with only one person inside.

The reply from the "magician" man was very complicated:

If the "swollen severed hand" doesn't have the "spiritual travel" ability that Lumian expected, or if it requires a price that I can't afford to pay before signing the contract, I still have a few other options.

"The local women were full, the trial was slow, and this playboy was sent to the stake.

Lumian copied all the information about the potential targets onto new sheets of paper, folded them, and put them in his pocket.

Both creatures are "natives" of the spirit world and only appear in certain terrifying dreams and in the notes of real wizards.

Having lived in the village for almost eight years, I can indeed feel that the villagers are ignorant in some aspects.

Red sparks flew out and broke the knot on the seal.

I put my mind at ease for the moment, fell onto the bed, and used sleep to restore my mental and spiritual state.

“That is a unique spiritual creature, who was born as a playboy with great manners and looks.

Lumian hooked his index finger, and the gorse brooch was pulled off.

"Investigators sent by the Church of the Eternal Sun questioned a small number of local women, and the answers they received were similar to the content of the report letter. A small number of those women knew each other but had never had any contact.

I read for a while, took a break, and by the evening, I had finally read through the corresponding manuscript and mastered the knowledge contained below. I had no final choice:

After spending a while, Lumian initially selected seventy or eighty spiritual creatures with relatively suitable abilities and low safety levels. He took out the manuscripts according to the marked pages and began to conduct detailed research.

"That kind of life continued until the spouse of each lady reported me to the church as a witch who used witchcraft to control his wife.

All I need to do is choose a relatively secluded place far away where no one is around. This way, even if something goes wrong with the ritual and the summoned creatures get out of control, it won't affect the surroundings and I can resolve it calmly.

The "Thousand-Eyed Evil" is made up of pieces of flesh and blood oozing pink liquid, each of which has an eye without eyelashes.

“On the contrary, these ladies and sisters all thought they were doing it voluntarily and tried their best to defend the playboy.

The alternative to "Bride with a Head" is "Mantis with a Human Face":

“I have no literary talent, but I am good at writing poetry and have a lot of lovers.

Before creating the "spiritual wall", lighting the candles, and dripping the essential oils and hydrosols, Lumian slowly chanted the spell and took out an iron-gray military wine flask from the inside pocket of his brown jacket.

And that also made me realize that Jiangbin creatures do not all come from nature. Under normal circumstances, dead humans can also be transformed into long-lasting spiritual creatures. That may not be the reason why some places are haunted.

Lumian considered that he had asked Mr. Fool to witness the contract, but this was a being named after fate, so he planned to summon him underground to avoid running into those weird and safe scammers in the "One with the Crowd" dance hall again.

Mr. Fool will be the object of prayer and witness of that ceremony.

The inside of the mouth of the military wine flask was inlaid with a thin rope added by Jiang Binyi, and the other end of it was connected to the "dignified" brooch submerged in the absinthe.

“It is said that there was no ‘instigator’ involved in the incident.

At noon, Lumian casually ate two meat pies, drank a glass of apple sour wine, sat down at the table, and carefully read the "Index of Spirit World Creatures".

"Before this playboy died, he turned into a mantis with a human face in the spirit world. I hate everything and am good at transformation and hunting..."

According to the knowledge of the "contracted person", I did not summon "in your name", but lit two candles on my forehead to symbolize the gods.

Lumian was not determined, and put the golden "respectable" brooch on his chest.

When you and your lover were getting married in secret, you were found by your parents and family members, and your brother killed you on the spot and cut off your head, accusing you of violating the sacred marriage and clan rules.

Judging from the images presented by the dream divination, this is a bluish-white severed hand that has been rotten to the point of swelling and pus. It always suddenly appears behind the victim's eyes, breaks my neck within 28 seconds, and then flashes to another victim, even if the two parties are only a few hundred meters apart.

"It's bad, stay away from the 'one with the crowd' dance hall.

I stayed at the Breeze Ballroom for a while, and around ten o'clock in the evening I left the market path, went around to West Pier, and retreated into the two-story building I had burned down.

For the "arsonist", that was an impossible target to deal with in terms of ritual protection.

After repeated consideration, Lumian gave up the "invisibility" and "hiding" abilities, and reserved the first contract spot for the characteristics that can directly affect spirits.

My two backups are Thousand-Eyed Thing and Screaming Shadows.

Jiang Binyi carefully cleaned up the environment and set up the altar in a relatively intact room deep inside the white-painted building.

As I read quite slowly, I used a white absorbent pen to draw a circle under the paper from time to time to mark the targets that I felt were more suitable.

Its legend originated from the Kingdom of Hagati in Nanxiaolu, and its prototype was a man who eloped with his lover.

According to the on-site records, the deceased were distributed in the same place in the woods. Except for those who died first in the hunter's house, the time of death of the others was almost exactly the same. This means that before "Abscessed Hand" strangled one person to death, it immediately appeared behind another target and pinched my neck.

"Mr. Fool's 'angel of time' will take care of that."

"Besides the prior review, the official confirmed that Playboy is a wizard, and all the accusations were based on collective jealousy and hatred.

However, the holder of the Little Aka card also specially marked a sentence:
