Chapter 43: What a Big Dog's Head

"Sunflower is dead, Apachadu is dead, even Abba is dead, the Kulun is gone... Why? Why do you want me to be left alone in this world? Shaman, you say, you say, you say, ·····."

Woo woo woo · Ahhh

In the gloomy woods, a lonely figure knelt on the ground, crying out to the sky in a heart-rending voice.

People always have to go through something before they can really grow up.

After a long time, he raised his head, wiped a handful of tears, kowtowed a few times to the four sides of the woods, and then left the woods without looking back.

He was going to a place, to the place where the Kulen people feared the most, and perhaps there, he could find the strength to avenge his people.

And at this moment, his enemy is doing something very important to him.

After days of killing, Dylan finally had enough of five hundred souls to be killed. He was now on the top floor of the observatory, preparing for his second summoning ritual.

On the ground, at this time, Dylan used an obsidian carving knife to carve a magic array with a radius of eight meters. At this time, they are all ready to start summoning the legendary three-headed dog who guards the gates of hell.

Cerberus

According to tradition, Cerberus was born to Typhon, the ancestor of the demons, and Ekadena, the goblin of the snakes. The monster had a terrible appearance: it had many heads, and it had the tail of a snake, and a poisonous snake coiled around its neck.

After Hercules brought the dog from the underworld to earth, it spewed venom from its mouth as it barked, and where the venom landed, a plant of the genus Aconitum was born (as described by Ovid in The Metamorphoses, Medea used the juice of Aconitum to make a poison).

The ancient Greeks had the custom of placing a piece of honey cake in the coffin of the deceased in order to please Cerberus, who was said to be a very greedy demon dog whose soul could pass through hell while the soul who did not want to offer food would be devoured by it.

Dylan chose to summon him because of his greed. This greedy, principleless beast is best dealt with, and Dylan believes that if it is given enough good, it will definitely give itself what it wants.

AFTER EVERYTHING WAS READY, DYLAN RAN HELD A CRYSTAL BALL IN ONE HAND AND A BURLAP BAG IN THE OTHER, CROSSED HIS KNEES INTO THE MAGIC DEFENSE CIRCLE, AND BEGAN TO CHANT THE SUMMONING INCANTATION: "CHUANS HUOZHO NGDEDI YUSAN TOUQU AN1 WO1 ZAICI ZHAOH UANNI" (O the doorman of the legendary underworld, I am here to offer sacrifices, summon you, and ask you to appear in this world······· )

The sound of the incantation, becoming more and more ethereal, as if penetrating space, sounded unreal. As the incantation sounded, Dylan felt his soul pass through the fog and come to a vast land.

Dark, terrifying, and eerie, this is Dylan's first impression of hell. There are no bright colors such as red, yellow, blue, and green in this world, only the colors of dead silence, and the colors of dead silence are difficult to describe, and it can only be said that everything seems to be covered with a layer of fog.

Just as Dylan was at a loss and wandering around in hell, a strong suction force came from an unknown place. After a whirlwind, Dylan came to the door. Looking up, the words are engraved on the front of the gate:

Through me, enter the city of pain

Through me, into the abyss of eternal misery

Through me, enter the crowd from which there will never be a return

Justice motivates my high Creator, the power of the gods, the highest wisdom, and the supreme love

This trinity shaped me

Before me, nothing was created but immortality

And I am also immortal and immortal

Throw away all hope

Those of you who have entered through this.

The majestic gate, with its deep black glittering magical luster, is the gate to hell. Standing in front of this gate, Dylan only felt a burst of fear that inexplicably emanated from the bottom of his heart. This fear is different from that of living beings encountering natural predators, which is the most primitive fear of death of all living beings.

Since ancient times, warriors and sages have been able to get rid of this fear unless they have attained great liberation or have a fearless mindset. Unfortunately, Dylan is now just a mortal creature, and this fear cannot be avoided.

Fortunately, Dylan had not forgotten his purpose, and he made up his mind and asked:

"Did you bring me here? If so, show up. ”

Wangwang····· Wangwang·····

A vicious barking of dogs came from far away from the other side of the gate, and it was soon in front of the gate from far and near.

Squeak...

The gate opened, and behind it was a vicious dog with three heads and red eyes. It seemed that the three-headed dog was extremely hungry, and as soon as it appeared, it couldn't wait to ask Dylan for food.

"Boy, you summoned me, so did you bring food?"

Cerberus shook his three huge heads, and his poisonous saliva kept dripping onto the ground, causing thick poisonous smoke to rise from the ground.

Dylan, of course, came prepared, and he propped up the bag in his right hand, one by one, and threw the honey cakes from the bag into the mouth of the three-headed dog. The three-headed dog took a bite at a time and quickly finished the honey cake in the bag.

It stretched out a blue-black tongue, licked its mouth, and said, "Say, what do you want? Five hundred pure virgin souls is not a small number. What you want should not be something as simple as a wealthy woman. ”

Dylan smiled silently, then took out the crystal ball full of souls and said, "Five hundred mortal souls, if they can be exchanged for a powerful boost, it is a good deal." As you can see, I am a mage who refines summoning and sacrificing. I don't have any summons, though. ”

"As a summoning mage, but without summoning beasts, there is no point in me learning magic. I would appreciate it if you would be willing to give me one, the most suitable summoned beast for me. ”

Cerberus, with three heads and six eyes, looked at Dylan carefully, and after a while, his three heads began to argue.

The dog head on the far right says, "You should give him a magic dog, this is the most suitable ·····"

The dog's head on the far left said, "Fool, do you have all the sand of the Styx in your head······?"

Demon Dog... Demon Snake ····· , the two heads just quarreled like this.

The head in the middle looked left and right, and finally couldn't stand their noise, and directly bit off two of his own heads.

Puff ····· Puff ·····

Two huge dog heads fell in front of the gates of hell, and the world fell silent in an instant.

The only remaining head sniffed the two dog heads underground, then looked up at Dylan and said, "I'll give you these two heads, you take them back..." If you encounter an enemy, you just throw your head out. ”

Dylan looked at the dog head with his whole body, and said silently in his heart: "You horse egg, such a big dog head ·······."
