Marvel Book of Magical Events

Chapter 82 The Golden Ark of the Covenant

The bottomless abyss is the most chaotic place in the entire universe, the lowest layer in the universe. Chaos means the increase of entropy. One day, when the universe comes to an end, the abyss will swallow the entire universe. Of course, this time unit is recorded in hundreds of millions of years, and has nothing to do with the current Salomon.

The reason why cents are used to describe it is entirely because Salomon is now located in the apartment purchased by Bayonetta in New York, so he uses this currency unit as the Romans do.

What the hell, shouldn't the magic pet be the mage's little baby? Why is his magic pet so close to Beunita? When Salomon walked into the apartment, he saw Bayonetta was putting a plate of fish on the dining table, and the Cheshire cat was standing on the chair, with two round front paws resting on the table, Eager to try a bite.

Salomon picked up the fat cat and carried it into his arms, and walked to the sofa in the living room. Seeing the delicious salmon getting farther and farther away from him, the Cheshire cat meowed aggrievedly. Through the magic contract, Salomon, as the owner, could fully feel the regret in his heart, and those meows were not nonsense Nonsense, only he can understand.

"You are not a real cat, you are just a feline spirit with the shape of a cat, you can't let your appearance limit your behavior." The mystic weighed the magic pet in his arms, and he said, "Besides, you are enough Fat, I think you weigh at least fifteen pounds."

"Meow! (You are slandering!)"

"Are you ready to explore the secrets of the Queen of Sheba?" Joan of Arc, who was sitting at the other end of the sofa, put her red-rimmed glasses on her forehead, "I must first tell you that the existence of the Queen of Sheba is the top secret of the witches." , if Celesa hadn't awakened the left eye, we would have been unable to summon her."

"What about communication?" Salomon asked. "I asked Phoenix, but it doesn't know anything about the Queen of Sheba either."

"Since the last summoning, the Queen of Sheba has been a communicable demon, but she is not as easy to communicate as Madame Butterfly." Beunita walked into the living room with the fish and took the firewood from Salomon. The county cat hugged it back. "Little cat, do you want to eat this?" she said.

"Meow!"

Now he finally knew why the Cheshire Cat was so close to Bayonetta. The witch never had a bottom line when feeding the cat. The Cheshire Cat could eat as much fish as there was in the refrigerator. For the past few days, every day has been a fish party.

"So, where are you going to summon? I suggest going to the mirror dimension." Salomon said, "By the way, Beunita, don't feed it so much, this cat will really get fat."

"Meow! (You nonsense!)"

"This time we don't plan to summon the Queen of Sheba in full body, we only need one hand, and the magic of the witch family can do it." Joan of Arc said, "We will not be so stupid as to be summoned when necessary." A mighty demon."

In order to summon a hand of the Queen of Sheba, Salomon activated the mirror dimension, and Beunita and Joan also changed into battle costumes. In fact, even Beunita and Joan of Arc are not sure whether this call will be successful, because they are not fighting Jubilus now, and whether the Queen of Sheba will respond depends entirely on her own mood.

“TELOC VOVIM A GRAA ORS TABA ORD AVAVAGO”

“EMNA OL ADRPAN ADNA ZNRZA OXEX RACLIR”

After they uttered the incantation, Salomon turned his head away from the summoning action of Beunita and Joan of Arc. Since their clothes would disappear when summoned, Salomon's behavior was purely polite. Unexpectedly, the summoning went very smoothly. The black and white hair twisted into strands and got into the black-purple summoning spell, and a huge hand came out from the other end. There was a huge palm on the back of this hand. skull decoration.

Most astonishing of all, the fingertips of this hand were holding a small silver cup filled with a steaming black liquid. When the Queen of Sheba stretched out her hand in front of Salomon, he smelled a strong aroma of coffee. The Queen of Sheba's meaning was very obvious. She wanted Salomon to drink this cup of coffee, otherwise he would Refuse to communicate.

"This must be revenge." Salomon muttered softly, "But I'm really not King Solomon."

According to the legend, King Solomon fell in love at first sight and fell in love with the Queen of Sheba, but the queen regarded chastity as her life, and she was willing to live in Solomon's palace after Solomon swore not to touch her. Until the night before leaving Jerusalem, King Solomon held a grand dinner to see the queen off. King Solomon made an agreement with Queen Sheba that if Queen Sheba did not take anything from Solomon's palace before leaving, he would let Queen Sheba go home.

But King Solomon used a little trick. He asked the chef to make the dishes very delicious, and at the same time put a lot of salt in the dishes. After a full meal, the Queen of Sheba was thirsty in the middle of the night, so she sneaked into Solomon's room and drank a bottle. Water, King Solomon who has been waiting nearby said, "Now you have broken your promise and used what is in my palace, so you must agree to my courtship." When we parted the next day, King Solomon took out a ring and said to the Queen of Sheba, "I have a feeling that you will give birth to a boy because of what happened last night, and let him come to me with the ring in the future."

Sure enough, after the Queen of Sheba returned to Ethiopia, she gave birth to King Solomon's son Menakri. When he grew up, Manakri went to Jerusalem to visit his father and was named the first emperor of Ethiopia.

Now that the Queen of Sheba puts the coffee in front of Salomon, he feels that this is the revenge of the Queen of Sheba spanning thousands of years-if the Queen of Sheba is really the queen from the south, then taking out the coffee is the same. As expected. The mystic took the coffee cup, blew it off a little, and drank it slowly.

Well, salty, it seems the Queen of Sheba used salt as sugar, of course, it may be intentional, this is a revenge. It wasn't until after drinking the extremely unpalatable cup of coffee that the Queen of Sheba snapped her fingers in satisfaction, and a huge halo appeared above their heads. This is the halo behind Jubilus, the proof of his rank, and the reward for Beunita and Joan after fighting Jubilus. The halo quickly shrank and fell into the hands of Bayonetta.

Immediately afterwards, the Queen of Sheba poked Salomon lightly with her nails, and a golden cabinet appeared in front of the mystic.

This chest of acacia wood is covered with fine gold, with gold inlaid around it, and four gold rings at the corners, and two gold-wrapped poles pass through the gold rings. The whole cabinet is 68 centimeters high, 68 centimeters wide, and 113 centimeters long. On the top cover of the cabinet are two cherubs made of pure gold, with their wings outstretched and facing each other.

This is the Ark of the Covenant. There are many stories about it, but the legends generally describe three things in the Ark of the Covenant. One is two tablets of the covenant, engraved with the Ten Commandments; the second is a budding staff, which was used by Moses' brother Aaron; Christ's hidden manna. And according to legend, those who touch the ark will die, just like Uzzah who tried to support the ark, and the Philistines who watched the ark.

It is said that the Ark of the Covenant was once placed in Jerusalem built by King Solomon, located in the inner hall of the temple, and it disappeared mysteriously until the 6th century BC. There is also a legend that King Solomon's son, Menakri, risked his life and moved to Ethiopia, the hometown of the Queen of Sheba, before the fall of Jerusalem. If this legend is true, then the Ark of the Covenant appeared in the hands of the Queen of Sheba. No surprise.

Now this cabinet appeared in front of Salomon again, but he didn't dare to move it—who knows what power is in this cabinet, it's better to let the supreme mage see it first. The mystic turned his fingers, and a portal appeared under the ark, and he teleported the ark to his own room. Seeing that Salomon did not open the Ark immediately, the Queen of Sheba waved her hand rather bored, and unilaterally ended the summoning.

———————————

"So, this is your harvest? The Queen of Sheba gave it to you?" The Supreme Mage became very interested in the Ark of the Covenant, but dismissed the halo of Jubilus who was placed aside. His Holiness asked, "Among the knowledge you have acquired, is there anything about the Ark of the Covenant?"

"No." Salomon said, "I have never touched this cabinet. I think it's better not to touch this kind of magical artifact without any function."

"It's very sensible. You are an Israeli. Touching the cabinet at will may have unexpected consequences." The venerable said, "Even if it is not, it is better to store magic items of this level in the temple."

"But I don't believe in God." Salomon said, "Even so, can't I touch it? Is there no one in this world who can open this thing?"

"It doesn't care whether you believe it or not, and I think that power is an anti-theft measure with the function of identification." His Holiness said, "Wait until you have mastered all the stigmata, and then try to open this ark. Then you will be the Messiah, and its contents will reappear. I think that sprouting rod may be of use to you."

"But I don't want the priesthood, I don't think it's necessary," Salomon said, "God is not here. I don't think that level of gods need human belief at all, or is it to reflect the authority of gods To formulate so many rules and regulations, I always feel that this is a bureaucratic style."

"I think you can only say this in Karma Taj." His Holiness said with a smile, "Our greatest suzerain is the Eternal God, if you can be recognized by the Eternal God, then even if you say this at the gate of heaven No one dares to do anything to you. Do you want to be the supreme mage?"

"Teacher, why do you think I want the position of Supreme Mage?" Salomon spread his hands, and he said, "Isn't it good to be lazy? You can never finish learning magic, and the position of Supreme Mage will only slow down my progress." learning progress."

"There's still time to play games."

"You really know everything, teacher."

"Since you don't want to, then I will choose the chosen successor, who is the designated successor of Emperor Weishan. I just hope you don't conflict with him." The supreme mage said, "He lives in the world of science. It’s going to be a little hard to accept.”

"Who?" Salomon asked knowingly.

"He." A phantom appeared in the hands of the Supreme Mage.

"Oh, I know him," said Salomon. "Sherlock Holmes, the most famous detective in London."

Ah, I forgot to ask for a recommendation ticket.
