"The circle of the summoning ceremony is in the secret room on the second floor, you take a candle and follow me. ”

After picking up the idol in the basement and letting Chen Xi pick up a candle, the two walked down the stairs into the secret room on the second floor of the basement.

The flickering candlelight dispelled the darkness in the chamber.

The chamber was spacious and empty, and only a circular pattern with a diameter of about one meter six could be seen on the ground.

The pattern is based on solidified black lead powder and lines of mercury, forming a complex and strange pattern, which is combined to form a circle formed by the staggering of a roulette wheel.

Chen Xi placed the candle on the candlestick on the wall of the secret room, and then curiously looked at the ritual circle on the ground.

Biros placed the idol in front of the circle, took out a simple and yellowish white fur from his arms, handed it to Chen Xi, and said:

"This is the process of the summoning ritual, you can write it down. ”

Chen Xi took the fur and looked at it carefully by the candlelight.

She had a good memory, and in a short time she returned the fur to Biros, "All right, Sister Biros, I've written it down." ”

Bilos nodded and reminded, "It doesn't matter if the spell is fast or slow, the important thing is to immerse yourself in it." ”

"Okay, then I'll get started. ”

Chen Xi took a deep breath, took off his shoes as described on the fur, and stood cautiously in the middle of the circular pattern with his white slender feet, his feet just stepping on the blank space of the two mercury patterns.

Then, she opened the golden urn and began to whisper strange incantations that she herself could not comprehend.

“nizazhemexianhaiyaoyongpinyinduchulai......”

As her incantation sounded, she felt as if her spirit had entered a wonderful state, as if a gap had opened in her mind, and her spirit had vented out of it and merged into the circle beneath her feet.

Then, the mercury on the circle began to flow slowly, and gradually shone brightly, becoming more and more dazzling.

Chen Xi's heart was nervous, and while continuing to chant the incantation, he reached out and grabbed a handful of ashes from the golden urn and slowly poured them into the circle.

In a trance, she vaguely felt that she heard a voice sound, and the voice seemed to say:

Mamaipi?

Although she didn't understand what Mamaipi meant, the voice made her excited.

Seemingly...... She's already connected with the soul of the ashes as a medium!

That's too fast, right?

Next, she only needs to form a 'Heroic Spirit Body' based on this connection, and then firmly deepen the spiritual connection, so that she can use this summoning ritual to form a channel and let the ancient dead soul truly descend!

That's when —

"Knock knock!"

Suddenly there was a loud slamming sound outside the secret room, and at the same time, a slightly irritable voice came:

"Biros, Biros, I know you're in there, get out!"

Chen Xi was slightly stunned, turned his head to look at Bilos, and was a little apprehensive in his heart.

Bilos couldn't help frowning slightly:

"It's old Matt's voice, what's the matter with him? I told him not to bother me. ”

She glanced at Chen Xihe, who had completed the summoning ceremony halfway, and said:

"Xiaoxi, you continue to summon, I'll go out and take a look, I guess Old Matt has drunk too much again. ”

Chen Xi nodded slightly and said, "Sister Biros, be careful. ”

"Don't worry, old Matt is a good man, but his temper is a little worse. Belos smiled and walked down the stairs to leave the chamber.

Chen Xi took a deep breath, refocused his mind on the summoning ceremony, and began to chant a new incantation.

“nizenmeyouzainianpinyinnizhendehaoxian......”

As she chanted her incantation, the round array of mercury under her feet suddenly burst into an astonishing light, and then the brilliant light turned into a pattern of light and slowly rose.

"Go ahead. ”

Chen Xi raised his hand and gently pushed the round pattern of light, and the light map slowly fell on the ground on the side, and the light converged together, forming a faint pillar of light.

In the pillar of light, there were countless starlight like stars, and the dots of starlight were like cells, quickly combined together, from an illusory outline, to a real human body.

The Heroic Spirit Body formed by this summoning ritual also instilled the verbal memories in her mind.

Next, she only needs to deepen the spiritual connection and connect her spiritual power with the consciousness of the other party, not only can the dead soul descend, but also make the heroic spirit limited to her and obey her orders!

After a while, the countless starlights in the pillar of light converged to form the appearance of a man with his eyes closed.

He had black hair, a Middle-earth countenance and facial features, young and handsome, a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and clothes formed automatically according to spiritual connections, which was very different from the style of this era.

"That's not right...... What's going on......"

Chen Xi was stunned, looked at this heroic body in disbelief, and muttered:

"The powerhouse of the Ancient Gods, after becoming a Heroic Spirit, how can his aura be so weak?"

She remembered the words on that fur:

The more powerful the revenant soul is in life, and after forming the body of a heroic spirit, the more powerful the aura it emits!

And the young man in front of him, his breath is so weak, he is clearly an ordinary person!

"Impossible, the years of existence of this ashes are at least thousands of years, or even longer, how can it be an ordinary person......"

Chen Xi couldn't help but look at the ashes in the gold box in his hand, and a thought suddenly flashed in his heart:

"Do you mean...... Are these ashes from before the Calamity?

"Legend has it that before the Age of Calamity, the old civilization was only in the age of technology, and there was no transcendent system yet, and there were only ordinary people in the world......

"But if it's an ordinary person, how can it be successfully summoned?"

And suddenly—

The candlelight on the wall shook violently.

A round black shadow rolled down the stairs and then stopped in front of Chen Xi.

"Huh?"

Chen Xi subconsciously turned his head to look, and then he was momentarily stunned.

That's a human head.

The long snow-white hair was completely messy, the white face was stained red with blood, and the round eyes were scattering, leaving shock, fear, unwillingness, and remorse...... and a hint of relief.

It's the head of Bylos!

"Bang dang. ”

Chen Xi's mind was blank, and the golden urn in his hand fell to the ground, scattering the ashes all over the ground.

She stared blankly at the head of Belos, her lake-blue eyes full of disbelief, and she felt as if her throat was blocked, and called out with great difficulty:

"Bi...... Sister Bilos......

"Sister Biros...... Is this also Valhalla's special ability...... You...... Don't scare me......"

Her voice trembled slightly, with a crying tone.

At this moment, a low and indifferent man's voice rang out:

"I've heard of the Apostles of the Evil God who can live even if their heads are cut off, but you Valhalla ...... There doesn't seem to be such an ability. ”

I saw a tall brown-haired man with a steel sword on his back and brown light armor walking down the stairs step by step, exuding pressing pressure with his steps.

The armor on his body had been stained red with blood.

The blood of Bylos.

Chen Xi slowly turned his head to look at the brown-haired man, and suddenly breathed: "You...... You're the new squadron leader 'Rosen' of the Justice Corps?"

"Of course, Miss Sylvie, we only met the other day, but I didn't expect it...... You're also an apostle of the evil gods?"

The brown-haired man 'Lawson' looked at her and the magic circle on the ground in some surprise, and then said coldly:

"Sylvie Arkema, you are suspected of joining the cult 'Valhalla' and performing evil god rituals, your fellow party 'Bilos Ranko' has been killed by me, the evidence is conclusive, according to the rules of the Alliance, I will escort you to a prison and be sentenced to death in three days. ”

His voice was not loud, but it exploded in Chen Xi's mind like thunder.

Legion of Justice!

This is an armed force specially set up by the alliance to eliminate religion!

Over the years, there have been tens of thousands of religious members exterminated by the Righteous Corps!

"You killed Sister Bheros?"

Chen Xi suddenly gritted his teeth and said:

"You've only been a 'Demon God Eater' for a few days, and you've only enjoyed the Demon God Feast once!

"And Sister Bilos's Heroic Spirit has the strength of a 'pro-level high rank'! how could you possibly kill her?"

Rosen scoffed and said:

"How could I be stupid enough to fight a Heroic Spirit of that calibre?

"It wasn't me who killed her, it was the tavernkeeper 'Old Matt' she liked!

"Hehe, I just threatened old Matt a few words, and he betrayed Bilos, and took the opportunity of pretending to hug her, broke her heroic spirit, and suddenly gave her a knife in the heart.

"And I just cut off her head.

However, she really likes old Matt, before she died, in order to prevent her heroic spirit from taking revenge on old Matt, she also deliberately let the heroic spirit enter the spirit body, tsk, it's so touching.

But she is really a poor worm, denounced by the person she trusts the most, and killed by the person she loves the most......

"This is the end of your apostles of evil gods. ”

The cold words were like knives, making Chen Xi tremble all over.

Because of fear, because of despair, because of anger, because of sadness.

She still remembered Sister Bheros's trust in the old Matt, and said that she might quit Valhalla in the future, renounce her faith, and marry Old Matt......

However, now it has ended up like this.

"Don't worry, I've already asked old Matt to meet her. ”

Rosen said indifferently:

"As for you...... I heard that you are the daughter of the rich merchant, and you have your sister and a few maids at home, right? It seems that they are also your comrades, and I will send them to accompany you. ”

Chen Xi's pupils shrank, and he said eagerly and angrily: "They are innocent, this matter has nothing to do with them! I am the only one who is an apostle of the evil gods! Whether you want to burn me or drown me, I will not resist, don't implicate them!!"

"It doesn't matter if it's up to me. ”

Rosen glanced at her indifferently, and suddenly chuckled:

"Of course...... If you are willing to give me the property of your Arkema family, such as the house deed and bank deeds, I can also consider letting them go. ”

"You threaten me with them...... Is that what you want to do?"

Chen Xi had already bitten his lip, his heart was full of unwillingness and hatred, and he said in a trembling voice:

"Aren't you a member of the Justice Corps? This kind of behavior is also worthy of being called 'justice'?"

Rosen couldn't help but laugh out loud and said:

"You're really a child who hasn't grown up, shouldn't you have learned the moral education on the 'League Code'?

"Tsk, a rich lady who hasn't experienced life in a wasteland...... It's naïve. ”

His ridicule pierced Chen Xi's heart like a sharp blade, she gritted her teeth, and her beautiful eyes were filled with powerless despair.

"By the way, didn't you summon the Heroic Spirit?

Luo Sen glanced at the summoning ritual circle beside Chen Xi, a strange light lit up in his eyes, and he suddenly saw the heroic spirit with his eyes closed and the appearance of a black-haired young man, he was stunned at first, and then sneered:

"This is the Heroic Spirit you summoned? Is it just an ordinary person? Hahaha, what a laughing man, what are you summoning him for? Is it just because he is handsome?"

He couldn't help but laugh out loud again, admiring Chen Xi's utterly desperate expression, as if he was looking at a funny poor worm.

The dim candlelight flickered, distorting the shadows beneath his feet like a demon's dance.

"Kill me......" Chen Xi closed his eyes, already in tears.

Rosen sneered: "You, the apostle of the evil god, are naturally dead, but your sister and maids are still alive, give me all the property of your Arkema family, I can still let them go, and give you a good time, otherwise ......"

"You are the real demon...... Chen Xi couldn't help but tremble, "Sister Bilos and I have obviously never done anything bad, and we have also helped many refugees ......"

"I know. ”

Rosen interrupted her indifferently, "Of course you and she are good people, much better than scum like me, and even Valhalla has saved this area many times in the past, ten thousand times better than those bastards at the top of the Alliance. ”

Chen Xi was stunned when he heard this: "Then why are you still ......?"

"Why?"

Rosen gave her a strange look and said as a matter of course:

"Because of the rules of the alliance, there is a great merit in eliminating the evil god apostles! And in the name of justice, you can also plunder the property of you evil god apostles at will, without worrying about being punished by the alliance's regulations, why let this kind of good thing go?"

Chen Xi's face turned pale, and he said in a trembling voice: "You...... Are you still human......"

"Hehe......"

Rosen sneered, "How can you, a rich lady who has lived a rich and comfortable life since childhood, understand the suffering of people like us?"

"Relief for refugees?

"Do you think the refugees will be grateful to you? Just give them a chance, they will only want to take possession of you and plunder everything you have!"

He stared at Chen Xi and said coldly:

"Even if I don't kill you, someone else will kill you, and no matter how friendly you religious believers are, you will still be the target of the Alliance's killing!

"As a soldier of the Justice Corps, am I just carrying out orders, is it wrong?

"Is it wrong that I just want to live better in this wasteland?"

The cold and realistic words echoed in the basement, and Chen Ximulan stood in the swaying darkness, unable to say a word.

It's just that a voice has been echoing in her heart:

This world ...... It's hopeless!

"For the sake of you and Bylos being good people, I've said enough. ”

Rosen frowned slightly, and then said coldly: "Hand over the property, or let your family accompany you to the funeral...... Take your pick. ”

At this moment, a strange and calm voice sounded—

"I choose...... You die. ”

Lawson's eyes changed, and he suddenly turned his head to look.

At this time, the heroic spirit who looked like a black-haired young man actually opened his eyes and was staring at him coldly!
