Lord of Mysteries: Yao Guang

Esther did not forget that she had a deal with Mr. World, and immediately went out to prepare the props needed for the sacrifice ceremony.

As for spiritual materials, she planned to buy some directly from Klein. He was countless times more familiar with ritual magic than Esther, so these things should be always available.

After hearing this request, Klein froze on the spot for two seconds, and then agreed to Esther's request, only accepting a token gold pound from her. The more he thought about it, the more something was wrong. In order to sell me extraordinary materials, he sacrificed to me so he bought my spiritual materials? What a weird cycle this is.

Esther didn't know this, so she happily went back with her things, and bought all the materials needed for other rituals on the way back.

This time, for the sake of safety, Esther used light points to distribute around and draw four thin lines, replacing the process of laying out the spiritual wall.

Esther was also a little tempted, wanting to see if the "Fool" could still access her prayers and sacrifices after such isolation. Her plan to do this is audacious, but if the light spot really blocks the gaze of "The Fool", the "Fool" will not know about such an ungodly act that offends the divine power, and it will have no impact.

After returning to the hotel, after confirming that Xiao Wu fell into a deep sleep again and placing it in the bathroom, Esther began to arrange the ceremony.

She first took out a pen and drew the pattern behind the high-backed chair of "The Fool" on the paper. It consisted of the "pupilless eye" symbolizing secrets and the "twisted line" symbolizing change. This is the symbol of "The Fool". Symbols, Esther has already firmly remembered them in her mind.

Two sandalwood-scented candles were placed on the low round table, and Esther lit the candles one by one with matches. She did not use the method used by Extraordinaries to light candle wicks with their spirituality in normal rituals. Esther's "spirituality" had always been abnormal, and she was not sure what the consequences would be of letting those light points "light" the candles.

She took out the small silver bottle that Klein gave her, and after unscrewing the mouth of the bottle, a light and soothing aroma immediately wafted out of it, making Esther subconsciously take several sips. She then poured a drop of this liquid onto each candle, and the basic preparations for the ceremony were completed.

Esther placed the extraordinary characteristics of the human skin shadow wrapped in bandages on the table, and she knelt down below, clasped her hands and began to pray in giant language:

“O fool who does not belong to this age;

You are the mysterious master above the gray fog;

You are the yellow and black king of good luck.

Your faithful servant prays for your attention,

I pray that you will accept her offering,

I pray that you will open the gates of your kingdom..."

After the first three sentences were spoken, a whirlpool-like wind flow formed around Esther within the isolated area defined by the light. Everything around her began to distort, with signs of transforming into color blocks.

When Esther finished reciting the prayer, she heard an unexplained cracking sound.

The crazy warning from "spiritual intuition" made Esther close her eyes immediately and press her forehead tightly to the ground, not daring to lift it up at all.

——

After Esther left with the spiritual materials, Klein drank tea and read the newspaper while waiting for the call to pray, always ready to go to the bathroom and walk four steps backwards.

He did not wait long. In less than half an hour, four black spots appeared on Klein's right hand amid a clear sound of prayer, and he immediately rushed above the gray fog.

The pale yellow ball of light wrapped in a transparent shell took the initiative to descend from mid-air as soon as he appeared on the high-backed chair. Circles of light swayed above it, gently nourishing it. Klein’s Spirituality.

Klein reached out and touched the shell of the light ball, but as soon as his fingertips touched it, the shell made a shattering sound and opened a hole!

Through the finger-wide gap, a blurry scene suddenly appeared in Klein's mind. It was a young woman with her forehead pressed to the ground, kneeling down. She was trembling all over, and there were lines and lines in her golden hair. The dots were squirming and flowing, like thin snakes with life swallowing golden beads, spreading on top of her head, completely blocking what was hidden inside.

It was Esther, and there was an object wrapped in a bandage placed on the altar in front of her.

Except for Esther and the altar itself, everything around her was like paint that was constantly dissolving and mixing, chaotic and blurry, and completely unclear.

Klein couldn't help but frown, but seeing that Esther seemed to be in pain, he quickly brought the ghost properties of the human skin she was about to sacrifice to the gray mist, and then immediately withdrew from the perception of the internal situation of the light ball.

The cracks on the light ball were still there, which made its light flicker. Klein summoned a piece of gray mist to cover it. The crack actually absorbed a few rays of gray mist on its own, completing the transparent round shell on the outside.

"The gray mist has the effect of sealing this ball of light on its own? So the light inside probably didn't originally belong here..."

Klein was spinning a concrete coin in his hand, thinking about the special connection between this ball of light and the "god" on Esther.

——

After the mouth full of frantic murmurs was closed, it took Esther several minutes before she dared to sit up from the ground. There were still beads of sweat hanging on her forehead, and her whole body felt as if it was about to be crushed by a storm.

Holding on to the edge of the low table, Esther could barely support herself to stand up. The items on the altar had disappeared, and they had obviously been taken away by Mr. Fool. It's just a simple binary ritual sacrifice, why am I in so much pain? If there was such a violent reaction, the considerate Miss Justice wouldn't have said a word...

Is it because of the fear of the "fool" in his mind? It is naturally restrained, causing itself to be affected?

This seems to be a reasonable reason.

Esther massaged her arms and calves, trying to recover from the stiffness.

Is this the power of gods?

She felt tightness in her chest and lungs, coughed twice and took a deep breath. The discomfort on her body gradually eased, and not long after, another blurry scene dyed with thin light entered Esther's mind directly.

The man knelt on the ground respectfully: "Dear Mr. Fool, please help me tell Miss Lover that the extraordinary characteristics of the 'Werewolf' and the gold pound will be temporarily kept by you. She can hold a ceremony to pray for the gift at any time..."

"Huh, it seems there is nothing wrong with the gifting ceremony." Esther couldn't help but rub her hands, "Let's wait a few days before talking about it. Anyway, I'm not in a hurry now. I don't know what to do with so much money." Explain to the fellow villager that you can’t always trust him with gold pounds, it’s too troublesome.”

I don't know when "The Hanged Man" will be able to contact the craftsman. The sequence of extraordinary characteristics corresponding to "Werewolf" is not too high, and the price of making the corresponding items should not exceed the funds on hand.

Esther thought about it, putting aside the expectation that she might get a new weapon, she walked into the bathroom, held Xiao Wu in her hand and brought it out.

This is her more serious trouble.

If Xiao Wu could be killed directly, Esther would think about its help during this period, so she hesitated. However, under the restriction of not being able to do anything, she was even more worried about it. She was only worried that one day it would attract the person who seemed to have something. The "head of the family" who has a personal vendetta.

Esther could only continue to keep Xiao Wu by her side, and had no choice.

During this kind of inner struggle, she couldn't help but think of Xiao Qi.
