I! Cleaner!

"Click, click, click!"

Looking at the old hen held in Senior Tom's arms, stretching out his head and pecking at the "earthworms" excitedly, and then looking up at the huge chicken beak that tore through the clouds again and again and pecked the Snake Bishop back again and again, Leon He couldn't help but shook his head slightly, his eyes showing a confusion as if he was from another world.

What the hell is going on?

“This is the chicken I bought outside before, at the stall selling fish and manor as soon as I entered the door.

In the miniature manor he sold, there was a small chicken coop behind the kitchen with dozens of egg hens, which was just right for dealing with these snake spirit believers, so I used it. "

After looking at Leon, whose soul and body were somewhat separated, and who still had not completely escaped from the Snake Spirit Secret Temple, the lazy young man explained:

"The secret temple of the snake spirit is actually a snake egg. The narrow passage we passed before entering the secret temple is equivalent to passing through its reproductive cavity and undergoing a simple pregnancy, so the soul will be temporarily ' Hatch' into a snake.

As for the effect of the snake egg secret temple, it is roughly equivalent to enlarging our soul, but extremely shrinking our body, and then switching the positions of the soul and body, turning us from people with snake souls into A snake with a human soul. "

"..."

"Don't you understand?"

Looking at Leon's still confused face, Senior Tom thought for a while, then made an analogy and said:

"This is just like the difference between babies and adults. Adults perceive the world mainly through physical eyes, and then thinking and cognition, first the body and then the soul; while the unborn baby has not been born, and the body has not really existed yet. , so the soul comes first and then the body.

So when we enter the Snake Egg Secret Temple, we are equivalent to becoming unborn baby snakes. From the body before the soul to the soul before the body, the priority exchange of body and soul is equivalent to becoming a snake with human characteristics. The snake of the soul. "

When he said this, the lazy young man paused slightly, then took out half a bag of unused salt, waved it in front of Leon's eyes, and reminded:

"Do you still remember? I made three sets of secret rituals in advance before entering the house. The second set composed of five metals was used to steal money from the cat spirit, and the third set composed of mercury, sulfur, and salt One group is used to control the soul and body.

These three materials represent the soul, the body, and the bridge between the two. They can resist the effect of the Snake Egg Secret Temple. As long as I lock the ratio of the three in advance, I will not be affected by the snake eggs. The effect of the secret temple. "

"..."

In Leon's silence, Senior Tom continued to explain:

"In this way, although I cannot directly interfere with the situation within the ritual, my body will not be infinitely shrunk, but your body is suppressed by the secret temple, so just finding a chicken and sending it in will be enough to kill the priest.

The only troublesome thing was the three snake crowns given by the snake spirit. But you attracted his attention from the front, so I found a way to invite three holy spirits who feed on snakes and simulated them with some materials. mark, and forcibly removed the snake crown.

After losing the life-saving snake crown, the priest's body was suppressed to the limit by the secret temple, and the strength of his soul was still suppressed by me. He couldn't even beat a chicken... Do you understand? "

"..."

You probably understand... right?

Leon, who couldn't be said to be confused, could only say that seven orifices were connected to six, Leon nodded slightly stiffly, and then asked:

"Senior Tom, are these... uh... secret rituals your main fighting method?"

"Roughly the same……"

The lazy young man nodded when he heard this, then after thinking about it he shook his head and said:

“But rather than the way I fight, it’s more the way I ‘do things’. I don’t know how to fight.

Unlike you, my core abnormality is relatively special, allowing me to be more closely integrated with the world and strengthening the effects of these occult rituals, but it has almost no direct damage or protection capabilities.

So if it's that kind of 'encounter', Emma can easily kill 10,000 of me, but if it's a situation where the enemy is overt and we are covert, she probably won't have the chance to see me face to face. "

"..."

Got it, old silver coins with weird tricks.

…

After defining a lazy young man in his mind, Leon couldn't help but asked curiously:

"Senior Tom, before entering the assembly hall, you prepared a total of three rituals. What is the third ritual for? Is it used to deal with the snake spirit?"

"no."

The lazy young man shook his head and said:

"It's okay for the snake spirit. As long as you can replace it and become the priest, and successfully trick it back, I think it will be quite easy to kill it if you have no intention of doing it, but... um... wait a minute!"

After looking at the poisonous ball python that was stepped on by the old hen and then bit on the head, Senior Tom quickly spoke and urged:

"He is almost finished. You go around from the direction of the chicken's butt, ready to wrap around the statue of the snake spirit at any time, and replace him as the priest who presides over the secret ceremony. I will help you disguise it... Go, go, go! It's too late. !”

"OK!"

After looking in the direction of the "Cockatrice War" and realizing that it had indeed come to an end, Leon ignored the need to satisfy his curiosity and quickly followed the direction pointed by Senior Tom, bypassing the chicken's butt and climbing up the hundred-meter mountain. The black and white altar, which is more than one meter high, coils up towards the tail of the snake spirit sculpture.

"Zi..."

Accompanied by the sound of frying meatloaf on an iron plate, Leon, who transformed into a little red snake, couldn't help but show a look of pain on his face.

There seems to be some kind of restriction on this altar. For him who is not yet a priest, every step he takes is like rolling on a mountain of knives. It hurts from the body to the depths of the soul. At the moment of contact with the snake spirit sculpture, There is even a chaotic feeling as if the soul is about to leave the body.

But it didn't take long for the situation to change.

With a loud bang, the old hen pecked out a large pit more than ten meters deep, and then "clucked" happily, and after dragging the poisonous ball python into the sky, which was no longer able to resist, it was originally trying to "resist" Lyon's contact. , the snake spirit sculpture that kept trying to push him away suddenly became friendly and let him wrap around its tail.

And with the complete completion of the coiling movement, as if he had just completed some mysterious ritual, Leon's consciousness blurred slightly, and he suddenly connected with an extremely huge soul.

Um? My priest?

After noticing something strange, the snake spirit entrenched outside an emerald jungle turned its head in surprise, looked at the vague little snake on its tail, and asked with a majestic expression:

"Aren't you presiding over the secret ceremony? Why did you come to me suddenly?"
