Inside a fast food restaurant.

Looking at the big brother in front of him, Sulu had a complex expression and looked up and down.

Unlike the original owner who inherited his mother's appearance, this Rhodes inherited more of their father, Tonks Botley's facial features, with strong edges and corners, a slightly gloomy hooked nose, and thick lips that are often tightly pursed , showing a determined expression.

At this time, the other party was opening and closing his mouth in a shapeless manner, stuffing the beef burger into his mouth, and swallowing it down his throat—almost without chewing.

"You... haven't eaten for a few days?"

This state reminded Sulu of a starving ghost, or a homeless man who wandered in the park for several days.

"Two days and one night... It's hard to buy a ticket for a long-distance steam train now, and the food served on the train is too expensive..."

After eating seven Big Macs in a row, Rod Porterly drank another large glass of orange juice, and finally sighed with satisfaction: "I've been here since I received your letter..."

"I'm sorry... my troubles have been dealt with!"

Sulu shrugged his shoulders, feeling a little regretful.

If this Rhodes had arrived one day earlier, he might have made a completely different choice.

"Yeah... It seems I'm late!"

Rhodes nodded, and looked Sulu up and down again: "Well... the little one has grown taller and stronger! What I want to say is... it's great to see you again!"

He tried to force a gentle smile on his face, and it was obvious that he had tried his best.

'Counting the original owner's break with the family, I haven't been back for four years, right? '

Sulu's expression suddenly became sad: "Old guy...how is he? Also, why did you send me a letter before? The thing in the letter...what's going on?"

Because there were so many people around, he didn't directly name the pages of the black magic book.

"He... not good, very bad!"

Rhodes' movements froze.

"What happened?"

Don't say that our old father is missing, it reminds me of an American drama.

Sulu secretly slandered, and immediately heard Rhode's answer in a deliberately low voice: "He... um... how should I put it? He went to a far away place, through the method you know!"

"I know, that method?"

Sulu clenched his hands slightly, and a sea of flames seemed to appear in front of his eyes.

That was the deepest and painful scene in the original owner's memory, the failure ceremony of Tonks' promotion!

Even though it was only a part of the memory, his body couldn't help trembling slightly, his cheeks twitched: "It seems... we need to have a good chat!"

"no problem!"

Rhodes wiped his mouth with a napkin: "We really should have a good talk... and we need a quiet environment!"

He got up naturally.

Sulu glanced at his pocket, and simply went to check out by himself.

…

In an open field in the suburbs.

The surroundings are empty, there is nothing, and the field of vision is extremely wide.

As Sulu and Rhodes walked, they narrated some things that happened to each of them.

Because that page of the black magic book was given by Rhodes, Sulu didn't hide it, and told everything that happened afterwards.

Well, except for the secrets of his time travel and Goldfinger, it is impossible to reveal it.

The focus is on the mutated Beatrice and the besieged Catherine.

Rhode looked solemn, paced a few steps, and said: "That Catherine, according to your description, is very similar to [Shadow Binder], a Transcendent of this class can do some incredible things through shadows, but it is not difficult. Deal with it! It's just very evil, because the shadows they manipulate need to be taken from others!"

"That's for you..." Sulu sullenly.

He could feel that this brother was very strong, both in strength and in physique, he was superior to him, the previous hug almost made his bones ache, it was definitely called an 'inhuman' level.

"Yes... No matter which profession a transcendent is, it is extremely dangerous to ordinary people... Your handling is right!"

Rhodes said gently: "As for the school director, I will talk to him, and there will be no unnecessary trouble to come to you."

After hearing this sentence, Sulu immediately felt relieved.

But Rhode's expression became more solemn than ever: "The most important thing... is that corpse girl, Beatrice! She's probably really mutated!"

"Specifically?"

"The page of the magic book I gave you is indeed a trophy, from a secret society that worships death... Of course, I am not good at ancient Chinese, so I can't fully analyze the text on it, but I think it is more important, so I want you to help me read it. "

Rhodes said.

"If I didn't have that magic, maybe I would have been arrested as a murderer..." Sulu shook his head.

The people at the top know the extraordinary power, but the low-level police officers who handle the case may not know it. Even though what I said attracted the attention of the high-level, but at that time, there were a few kind-hearted people who would come to help a poor boy who had never met before.

Sulu has always disliked pinning such hopes on the kindness of others.

"I'm not saying you didn't handle it right, it's just... very abnormal!"

Rhodes frowned, and stopped: "That kind of black magic... Logically speaking, no matter how you use it as an ordinary person, you are doomed to fail... But, because of the special nature of the target, and the fact that you use the moon as a There have been some changes in the source of ritual power."

Sulu recalled the situation at that time. Indeed, without the attribute bar, he would not be able to learn the skill of [Corpse Girl Creation].

Even if you learn it, the failure rate is very high.

In the end, it was able to succeed entirely because of the help of an unknown force.

"That girl... Beatrice, you said that Catherine cared about her very much. Judging from the fact that the other party often sacrifices girls, she should belong to a very special type of person. If this type of person is in the church of the Goddess of Light, they may be cultivated to become saints." Female...and in the eyes of certain evil gods, it is a very good carrier for descending!"

Rhode's next words made Sulu's face change suddenly: "You mean... an evil existence interfered with my ceremony, making Beatrice his 'sacrifice'? Or 'incarnation'?"

"That's it, but... you are the priest of the ceremony, and this has not changed. This kind of mysterious involvement and suppression will make the product of the ceremony backlash. Only by killing you can she be truly free, or in other words, completely belong to a certain existence !"

"Then why didn't she kill me?" Sulu asked with a chill in his heart.

"Rituals and ceremonies are very mysterious and complicated things... I can only make some guesses! Judging from the fact that you were able to barely control that corpse girl afterwards, although the other party was affected a little at that time, they couldn't compete for your control. In other words, the existence that made the ceremony a success only planted a seed!"

"seed?"

"It may be because the relationship between the gods has just been opened at dawn, the righteous gods are sleeping, and the evil gods can't easily wake up and descend...so it's just a seed!"

Rhodes said: "But the seeds will eventually grow. The corpse girl is favored by death, and her strength will definitely grow rapidly... After exceeding a certain limit, she must go through a certain ceremony and kill you, the 'original owner', in order to be promoted to a real 'terrorist'." '!"
