In a sense, the conditions for achieving this ritual...
difficult to realize.
Scams that try to tick all the boxes at the same time are all too rare.
Not only must he deceive millions of people in one day, but he must also arouse a huge amount of consternation. Finally, he must not let anyone except himself know the truth about the scam.
"Fake death may be a choice that arouses emotions... The propaganda method of the Internet makes it possible to deceive millions of people a day... But how to deceive everyone..."
He keenly noticed that the most critical breaking point is who does "anyone" refer to
Including "Savior"
This is really important.
Aaron was self-aware enough to know that he was completely unable to understand what the “Savior” was thinking, and that he was completely unable to prevent Him from probing his thoughts.
That is to say…
It is almost impossible to hide the "Savior".
After thinking for a long time, Aaron dismissed the idea of deceiving the "Savior".
First of all, we must find a way to deceive the "enjoyers".
Although the method of feigning death sounds good, it is completely meaningless if you can deceive your companions at the Tower of Babel.
After thinking hard, Aaron immediately realized that maybe he needed to "take advantage of a loophole."
There is a difference between ritual and rational and objective spells.
As a person who is proficient in mysticism, Aaron knows the difference between the two.
It's not something that "fits perfectly", but something more emotional and mysterious.
For example, according to ritual records, sometimes the sacrifice at a certain location is required to be a "flame".
So many times, whether it is actual flames or emotions such as inner fire and anger, it can take effect.
As long as I can meet the requirements of the meaning, I should be able to complete the monarch ceremony.
So Aaron naturally thought of the "two scams" approach.
The monarch ritual of "Hiding the Sky" does not require that there can only be one scam.
In theory, two scams are possible!
You can try any part of the "ritual" that is not prohibited... This is actually a famous joke in mystical rituals.
Most people who do this often die miserably.
Precisely because "ritual" is full of emotions, its risks are extremely uncontrollable. At least compared to spells, it is a rather unstable source of power.
As a conjurer with a professional background, Aaron is familiar with these mystical knowledge.
He knows that "taking advantage of the loopholes" comes with risks.
But it is true that "taking advantage of loopholes" may also make you successful.
"Neither I nor the Tower of Babel have any extra time to wait and try and make mistakes."
As a result, Aaron planned a fake death incident without success.
He also pulled off an innocuous little scam and deceived everyone in the Tower of Babel.
It was precisely because the scam was so small that after everyone in the Tower of Babel learned the news, they would not think about whether it was true or false.
Although it seems innocuous, it still took a lot of time and energy for him to direct and act in Platinum District and Morningside District.
Fortunately, he can use illusions to help him, making enemies appear to be real.
Finally, Aaron's plan came to this point.
He is resurrected in the form of Homecoming Hero!
Although he deceived everyone about "death", the citizens of Chenhai did not feel that they had been harmed.
The Tower of Babel did not have a negative reputation at all. On the contrary, it was because of Aaron's "resurrection" that the citizens felt more secure.
A hero who cannot die is invincible in a sense!
This is also one of Aaron's purposes.
He hopes that people can still stay strong after encountering this year's general events.
Perhaps, next year we will encounter more changes and things worth fearing... No, this should be inevitable!
He not only wants to save people's bodies from monsters and cultists, but also their hearts.
At this moment, the "resurrected" Aaron was floating in mid-air, minding his own acting.
"Death makes me feel cold, silent, and dark..."
"I feel hopeless and scared."
"Your voice, the voice of the Savior... revived me."
He could feel a purple air current surging in the square.
These air currents not only swirl, condense, and persist for a long time, they are the energy of emotions.
The emotion of astonishment!
Aaron had never noticed its existence before, but now with the help of the ritual, he could see the true existence of emotional energy with his naked eyes.
Until now, only a few occult references to it were made in Noah's world.
But Aaron knows that there are also some schools of thought that attach great importance to emotional energy, believing that it comes from the power of the soul and has extremely huge potential.
it's time!
The opportunity could not be missed, and the time would never come again. Without hesitation, Aaron began to recite the ancient mantra.
The unknown spell gradually collected the emotional energy at the scene, condensed it around Aaron, and began to produce a strange reaction on him.
His figure gradually disappeared in front of everyone, as if he never existed.
Many people watched this scene, wondering what happened.
magic.
It's essentially a scam.
The mysterious way.
Aaron felt his body disappearing little by little.
He didn't really disappear.
Instead, it deceives "one's own" perception.
A more thorough, deceptive power is being demonstrated in Aaron.
In the process, a lot of "knowledge" gradually emerged from his mind.
This knowledge is unearthed from the essence of the soul.
Not every extraordinary person has "innate power", which is the case with Aaron. When he was promoted to monarch, what he obtained from the essence of his soul was some new mysterious knowledge.
Aaron felt it.
Become stronger than ever!
Even if... this power is nothing in front of a more powerful and terrifying existence.
But he finally took a step forward.
Aaron slowly clasped his hands.
He looked at the people in the square, these innocent people living in this city.
Everyone's heartbeat and everyone's breathing were so clear in front of Aaron.
They are using candles to "vigil" for their "dead" selves.
I will burn all my life and turn it into a candle for vigil... until only embers remain!

Bai Yan has returned to his home in Annotales.
Tulip Manor.
He sat in a chair and cut the cigar in a pedantic manner and put it in his mouth, but did not smoke it.
After a while, Bai Yan took out the relic cigar that could inhale the flavor of various ingredients and smoked it.
