The son of the dragon who walks

Chapter 212 Ciel’s new work

The entire Orario was in mourning because the guild released the news that the Hephaestus Familia defeated the Ishtar Familia and sent the goddess Ishtar back to the heaven.

Therefore, members of the Hephaestus Familia were glared at by a group of male adventurers when they walked outside.

In the original plot, Freya was criticized for defeating the Ishtar Familia, let alone the Hephaestus Familia.

This group of adventurers... every one of them is an LSP.

However, everyone in the Hephaestus Familia doesn't take it to heart at all. As long as those people want to continue venturing into the dungeon, there will always be a day when they come to ask for help.

The hostility of adventurers is nothing at all. The biggest impact on Hephaestus is the guild.

The guild strictly restricts conflicts between clans, and even if there is a major conflict, it can only be resolved through war games.

The act of directly defeating the Ishtar Familia like the Hephaestus Familia is actually a serious violation of regulations.

Therefore, the guild not only confiscated all the assets of the Ishtar Familia that were supposed to be spoils of war, but also gave the Hephaestus Familia the mandatory task of providing a large amount of equipment to the guild.

But the guild didn't go too far. It only asked for third-level equipment suitable for novices, not high-end goods.

After all, Ishtar was the one who initiated this matter, and abducting other members of the family must be severely punished if investigated.

The most important thing is that Ciel submitted the cursed weapon to the guild as evidence that the Ishtar Familia colluded with the dark faction.

The guild did not announce the news, but only transferred part of the Ishtar Familia's property to the Hephaestus Familia as compensation.

To Ciel's surprise, he found some special information in the Ishtar family's books.

Ishtar's confidence in defeating the Freya Familia was not only due to her collusion with the Dark Faction and the Galli Familia besides Orario. Her biggest trump card was actually Haruhime and the Killing Stone.

Although Haruhime's "Myriad Treasure Hammer" is very powerful, Haruhime, who has not yet awakened the "Ninth Level", can only level up one target at a time.

So Ishtar planned to use Haruhime's life as a sacrifice, combined with the killing stone that can absorb the fox man's ability to achieve group level sublimation.

In this plan, the special material Killing Stone and Haruhime herself, who possesses the "Millennium Hammer", are of course crucial, but the sacrificial ceremony is also indispensable.

The information obtained by Ciel recorded in detail various rituals including the sacrificial ceremony.

In fact, various rituals can be regarded as the third power alongside spells and magic.

However, the ritual process is complicated, and some have strict restrictions or require different materials.

For example, the sacrificial ceremony must be held during the full moon, and it requires rare materials such as killing stones.

Therefore, rituals are something that pragmatic adventurers do not need to consider whether they need to be studied or not.

But it is different for [Mysterious] holders, especially Ciel who has a big brain. This is the new work in front of Ciel now.

What Ciel didn't expect was that the experience accumulated from completing this work directly raised his [Mystery] to a higher level.

Five days after defeating the Ishtar Familia, when Ciel updated his ability value again, [Mysterious] was raised to G level.

What Ciel is worried about now is that he can't find the right person to test the capabilities of the new work.

This is also the first time that Ciel has been exposed to rituals, and it is also the first time that ritual techniques have been integrated into the development of abilities.

Although the upgrade of his abilities proved that he was indeed successful, it is still unknown whether there were any problems in the process.

Ciel himself tried it, but maybe because he was a visitor from another world, he couldn't activate this ritual.

Ciel was a little distressed. He would not have chosen this ritual if he had known it earlier. But it was this ritual that inspired him before. The key is that it is so handsome!

Just when Charles was distressed, there was a knock on the door.

Charles came to his senses, walked outside and opened the door, and saw Bell, Welf and Lily outside the door.

Welf waved and said, "Hey! We're here to thank you for what we did before."

When Charles saw Bell's eyes lit up, he directly pulled Bell into the room.

"Bell, you came just in time. I need your help with something."

Welf and Lily quickly walked in together and saw what was on the table at a glance.

As a blacksmith, Welf immediately became energetic.

It was a battle flag, a three-meter-long flagpole with a flag-like surface.

The flagpole is engraved with reliefs like ancient murals, and the dark red flag also has a delicate golden textured border. Strangely, there is a blank space in the middle without any pattern.

Welf praised: "The flagpole made of Oliha steel and the flag made of the membrane of Cadmus the Dragon are both high-grade materials!"

Lily couldn't help but open her mouth when she heard Welf's words. Whether it was Oriha steel or strong dragon skin, they were precious materials that she could not even imagine.

The materials alone for this war flag are so precious, how much would it cost to sell them! Lily, who is obsessed with money, has lost her ability to think.

"Good eyesight!" Charles praised Welf's eyesight, then picked up the battle flag, put it directly into Bell's hand and said: "If you don't say anything else, please help me try out my new work."

Bell held the battle flag and said, "It would be great if I could help Brother Charles. But what should I do?"

Charles said: "Hold the battle flag with both hands, and then pray to the battle flag. If you feel the response, the battle flag will absorb your magic power and take effect."

Bell followed Ciel's instructions, holding the battle flag in both hands, and erected the battle flag in front of him.

There was obviously no wind in the workshop, but the battle flag fluttered, and then thunder patterns appeared on the flag.

Ciel looked over expectantly and saw countless light fragments gathering behind Bell holding the battle flag, forming a figure holding an electric sword.

The man's face was very similar to Bell's, and he was wearing an armor that was too gorgeous and looked like a decoration.

Charles sighed: "As expected of Bell, he is actually that one!"

Although he has never seen the original hero Argo, Charles can determine the identity of the figure behind Bell.

As if jumping out of the long river of time, the hero from thousands of years ago revealed himself in this era.

Of course, Bell does not have this power, but it is the ability of Ciel's new work, the Banner of Heroes.

In this world, the souls of adventurers will not dissipate or go to the world of the dead after death, but will go to the kingdom of their respective gods.

The summoning ritual is based on this ritual for communicating with the deceased.

This reminded Ciel of the most famous servant in the blood type world, so the Heroic Spirit War Flag was born.

Ciel engraved the summoning ritual into the battle flag. As long as the user prays, he can summon the heroic spirit connected with himself, and absorb the user's magic power to launch the heroic spirit's attack.

There are three modes of the Heroic Spirit Battle Flag. The first mode is to use the favor of God as a catalyst to summon the seniors of your own family.

Because the souls of the family members of the same main god are located in the main god's kingdom, the cost of summoning will be much smaller.

The second way is through blood. If the blood relative is a member of another dependent clan, and the main god of that dependent clan has no objection, the heroic spirit of the blood relative can also be summoned.

Charles also wanted to see if Bell could summon his aunt, the heroic spirit incarnation of talent (Silence), but he didn't expect Bell to directly use the third method to summon Argo.

As we all know, there was no divine favor in ancient times, so it is not certain whether the souls of those ancient heroes still exist.

But Charles believes that the spirits of the ancient heroes who have been praised in legends for thousands of years must exist.

Whether it is through will, similar traits, or even the so-called reincarnation of the soul, in short, it is possible to summon ancient heroic spirits with more mysterious things.

This was originally just a guess by Charles, but now Bell confirmed it.
