Chapter 3: The Legacy of Morgan Sr
In the middle of the night, the moon hangs high in the sky with a hazy purple color.
The whole city is in a calm, cold atmosphere, and the commoners still repeat the ordinary and boring life, working hard during the day and sleeping peacefully at night, completely unaware of the turbulent waves hidden in the city.
A villa near the suburbs, from the garden to the hall, is deserted everywhere, and only when you enter the study room does it suddenly smell of human beings.
Moreover, there are two courses.
On the floor covered with expensive oak floors, the two "corpses" were reflected in the fainter and fainter candle flames.
One of the young man's bodies suddenly moved, and a subconscious moan came out of his mouth, Tang Qi opened his eyes suddenly, and a feeling that he had never experienced before, it was a feeling that would occur after being frantically beaten on the head.
In front of me, everything turned into a ghost.
The body that should have been easily controlled has become extremely heavy, and it is difficult to lift even one hand.
But even so, Tang Qi sat up quickly, first turned his head to look at the body of an old black man next to him, wearing butler clothes, his face was gloomy and ugly, his eyes were closed, and he could feel the coldness and stiffness of this body without touching it.
Corpse, this is a real corpse, Tang Qi subconsciously said.
However, Tang Qi, who was still uneasy, still turned his head again and looked at the mottled ancient bronze scale.
In the center, on the blood-soaked cross, a figure really returned, although it was much smaller, but the facial features that maintained a painful and wailing posture were exactly the same as the old black corpse beside him.
"Hahaha...... Ahem, I really succeeded. ”
Tang Qi grinned, but because he couldn't perfectly control his new body, his delicate face was a little distorted, and tears flowed down his face, which was very unsightly.
From an inferior devil to a successful counterattack against an evil old black man, and reborn as a human being, the process does not seem to be long, but for Tang Qi, it is indeed a big ups and downs, and it is normal to lose such a state of mind at this time.
That is, when he laughed, his head "boomed", as if he had been punched again.
Only this time, it was like a burst of embankment in his mind, and all the fragments of memory like a flood surfaced, different from the previous glimpse, this time, Tang Qi seemed to have completely become that teenager and experienced it for more than ten years.
When Tang Qi came to his senses, he not only knew everything about the original body, but also knew a little more about this new world.
This is a world that is highly similar to the Earth in the previous life, but very different.
This planet is called the Origin Blue Star, and the environment, language, history, and other things are similar to the Earth, except that there are more mysterious legends that cannot be explained by science.
There are not hundreds of countries here, and the vast territory is mainly divided by a few political groups, namely the Immortal Celestial Empire, the Condor Federation, the Europa Alliance, the Ancient Indian Empire, and the Mayan Empire...... Coupled with some groups that are too small to be ignored, it is the entire political landscape of Blue Star.
And Tang Qi's identity is an ordinary resident of Mercer City, a state under the jurisdiction of the Condor Federation, and he is also a rich second generation who has just lost his parents.
Miraculously, the name of the original body is also called Tang Qi.
His parents were the founders of the Tang Iron and Steel Company, a small company that could only occupy a small share of the steel market in Mercer, but it was enough to bring a lot of wealth to the Tang family, but unfortunately the two ambitious founders eventually died due to an accident.
Of course, the death of the original body was not due to excessive grief, but was murdered by the old butler whom he trusted so much.
Old Morgan, the old housekeeper who has worked in the Tang family for more than 20 years, is deeply trusted by the original body and his parents.
Because of this, the original body was deceived by the old Morgan, and actually really believed that the old Morgan had psychic powers, and tried to perform a psychic ritual to meet his parents who had become dead souls.
Although his soul did leave his body after drinking a suspicious liquid, what he saw was not his parents, but the old Morgan who had also become a soul state, but the old Morgan had torn off the mask of hypocrisy at that time and revealed his hideous true face.
Of course, it was not a psychic ritual, but an evil soul exchange ritual.
Old Morgan, an evil old thing, is not only interested in the property of the Tang family, but also Tang Qi's young and vivid body.
It's a pity that old Morgan seems to be performing this ritual for the first time, and he is not very familiar with it, at least he doesn't know that the Painful Judgment Demon on the cross can leave the Libra for a short time, so he let Tang Qi, who crossed over, successfully counterattack.
The praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, and everything belongs to Tang Qi.
At this time, Tang Qi, who had gradually become accustomed to the new body, was absorbing the memories in his mind while sorting out his trophies, from the legacy of old Morgan.
The corpse of old Morgan has been tied up by Tang Qi.
Although Donkey was so sure he was dead, his soul was captured by Libra and became the new Inquisitor.
If no one initiates the soul exchange ritual, he will probably never turn over.
However, his cautious personality still made Tang Qi add another layer of protection, as for destroying the corpse, Tang Qi also thought about it, but he thought of another arrangement, so he didn't do it for the time being.
After packing up the body, of course, everything on old Morgan was searched by Tang Qi.
A total of six items were placed in front of Tang Qi.
The first one was the incomparably familiar Soul Changing Libra, which was directly put aside by Tang Qi.
The second is a notebook that looks a little old.
As for the third, fourth, or fifth pieces, they were all crude-looking artifacts of witchcraft.
The last piece was a rolled up hide.
Tang Qi's gaze fell on the note for the first time.
Open it and look through it.
What catches your eye is a withered yellow paper, and you can see that the years are not small.
Because of the memory of the original body, the words of this world could not affect Tang Qi's reading in the slightest.
And the content recorded above made Tang Qi even more interested.
Witchcraft, each page contains a witchcraft, but from the description, it seems that all of them are witchcraft of the evil camp.
Moreover, the conditions for achieving each technique are very complex, and the effect does not seem to be as amazing as the legend, at least to the point of seeking money and killing people, it is necessary to achieve very harsh and cumbersome prerequisites.
For example, a sorcery called "Fear Heart", in order to achieve it, it is necessary to first collect the blood, hair, and nails of the target, and then perform a complex ritual at a specific time and place to summon the Dreaddemon to invade the target's dream.
After a few days in a row, the target will fall into a perennial nightmare and eventually go insane.
Or a sorcery called the "Uluru Golem", after this witchcraft is successful, it can create a puppet that is completely obedient to itself, but requires that a target with congenital intelligence defects be found first, then soaked in a special potion, and then carried out a bloodline transformation with an accuracy comparable to that of surgery, so that there is a certain chance of success.
This certain probability is not too high.
Although these witchcrafts are evil and cumbersome, Tang Qi still relishes them.
He traveled through rebirth to a strange world, although he already knew some information about the new world, it seems to be a safe world that is highly similar to the earth in the previous life, and even this world has not yet given birth to nuclear weapons, so it should be safer.
But judging from what happened to the original body, nuclear weapons do not have them, but they have extraordinary powers.
Tang Qi couldn't have guessed cautiously, this wouldn't be a dark world where demons and monsters were running around, right?
If this is the case, the evil legacy of the old black man may be the first-hand resource that Donch relies on to protect himself.
In the study, except for a tightly tied corpse and a flickering candle flame, only the sound of "bang-la-la" was left.
Soon, Tang Qi's fingers suddenly stopped on a certain page.
Compared to other witchcraft, the text on this page is dense, and there are many beautiful illustrations, and in the center, a Libra diagram is extremely obvious.
That's right, what is recorded on this page is the soul exchange ritual.
After Tang Qi carefully watched the ritual process, he let out a long breath.
The last trace of doubt that still existed was completely put aside at this time.
According to the note, if the ritual fails, the initiator will only have two ends.
One, he was captured by the Soul Changing Libra and became the new judge demon.
Second, it dissipates directly.
Obviously, the hapless old Morgan is the first to end.
He had no idea that what he had summoned was not the real Judgment Demon, but an otherworldly soul who was desperate for rebirth, and finally the evil old black man who believed in the devil became the new devil, and Tang Qi took over all the gains.
"Perhaps, I'm about to start a new life. ”
Tang Qi sighed, his eyes full of complicated looks.
Anyone who has Tang Qi's experience will not be able to calm down in a short time, but fortunately, Tang Qi's psychological quality is not bad, and there are witchcraft notes in front of him that attract attention.
It's just that when Tang Qi turned the page again and saw the next content, his originally relaxed face immediately became solemn.
Ten lines flew by at a glance, and after turning a few pages quickly, Tang Qi's face directly became gloomy as water.
