Chapter 122: The Oath (Part 1)
Although it was not the first time that Lu Li had heard of the interaction between the history of another world and ancient Greek mythology, he was still shocked. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
You must know that the three goddesses of revenge are in myths and legends, but they are the embodiment of justice, specializing in hunting down those who have committed serious crimes, especially advocating blood revenge, but who would have thought that their true faces would be like this.
Or as the saying goes, most of the celebrities in history are never as tall and majestic as they are described in the books.
For example, the great emperor who is admired by scholars may be nothing more than a sinister and cunning villain in his bones, and for example, the famous general who is admired by countless people is likely to be a completely self-centered paranoid in nature.
The gray-haired old woman seemed to notice something, and narrowed her eyes and asked, "Do you still have some secrets?" If so, tell them quickly! This matter is very serious, serious enough for all the countries of the entire continent to unite and issue a wanted warrant. ā
Lu Li sighed slightly, and replied with a wry smile: "I'm sorry, even if I say it, it's useless, the owner of this crystal is in my hometown, a very distant place." And they're not just one or two people, they're a bunch of powerful guys, and with my current strength, I can't even stand up to them head-on. ā
"Where is your hometown? Overseas continents, we can go on an expedition by boat!" said Sera, slapping the table vigorously.
It can be seen that she is very emotional now, and it seems that she has some kind of strong hatred and hatred for the evil enchantment.
"No, my hometown is too far away to be reached by boat. I can't rely on anyone's power to solve this matter on my own, which is why I have come to ask for your help. With that, Lu Li raised his head and calmly met the old woman's somewhat cloudy eyes.
After a full minute, Saira nodded slightly: "Okay, I trust you, now tell me, what kind of help do you need?"
"Quite simply, I need you to help me gain that ability to control other people's behavior, so that I can penetrate into them and find out who they are, who they are, and what their ultimate goal is. ā
Without any concealment, Lu Li directly said his request. After all, he has limited time and doesn't have time to go around in circles.
Seira stared at the lilac crystal and pondered for a long time, and finally said slowly: "I can help you, but you must swear by the gods you believe in, you must destroy all those who dare to break the taboo, and bring all the tainted crystals to me to destroy!"
"In the name of Ista, the goddess of deception and scheming, I swear that I will do everything in my power to destroy them. ā
Lu Li took out his adventurer badge, pressed his index and middle fingers on the smoke-shaped group, and solemnly swore an oath.
Ever since he learned that Enoch had gained his power by killing his biological mother, he knew that he had to destroy the users of the tainted crystal, both to keep himself safe and to find out what secrets were hidden behind the mysterious stone tablet.
Because an organization like this is extremely evil, and it must not be left unchecked, and God knows what terrible conspiracy they are hatching behind it.
"Very well! Now take off your shirt and come with me. Saira picked up the lilac crystal and walked straight behind the counter.
Lu Li smiled at the panicked little girl, and then followed.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them came to a room with mysterious symbols carved into the Greek alphabet on the floor and walls, with no windows or vents, no lighting, and the only source of light coming from the symbols that shimmered silver and gold.
Without saying a word, Sera walked to the middle of the room and pointed to the large iron frame not far ahead: "Stand up and fix yourself with iron rings." Remember, be sure to tie it strongly, and then you will feel pain beyond the limits of your patience. The essence of Erinius's enchantment is to rely on extreme negative feelings to forcibly activate all the potential in the body of ordinary people. Although you are an out-and-out adventurer, and I have another way to replace it, pain is inevitable. ā
"Don't worry, mother-in-law, I'm not as fragile as you think. Lu Li said as he took off his clothes and stuck his hands and feet with iron rings.
Since he had tasted the taste of a stomach piercing not long ago, he was confident in his pain tolerance.
"Vulnerability? no, young man, it has nothing to do with vulnerability, not the physical pain you imagined, but real pain from the heart......"
With that, Seila lifted her arm and dotted her old fingers in the air.
Moment!
All the runes in the entire room began to glow with a dazzling glare!
She hurriedly approached, took out a hook-shaped dagger that she carried with her, made a small hole in Lu Li's chest, and then stuffed the crystal into it.
"Ah!!!!h
The severe pain made Lu Li can't help but let out a miserable scream, his expression is hideous like a demon, but what is surprising is that there is not a trace of blood flowing out of the wound.
With all of this done, Serra took two steps back, pressed her hands to her chest, and whispered some incantation that she didn't know what it meant.
Lu Li, who could still feel a strong stinging pain a second, lost his perception of his body after a second, and his eyes began to appear as if he was there.
And these hallucinations are the most unbearable images for him, these images are so real, especially witnessing his relatives and friends being brutally murdered by himself again and again, it is simply ten thousand times more uncomfortable than any kind of torture in the world.
In just ten minutes, his will began to crumble, desperately hitting his head against the iron frame behind him, trying to make himself faint.
But it's a pity, I don't know if it's the effect of the ritual, or because the physical fitness has been enhanced, even if the head is hit and the blood flow, there is no reaction, and the brain is still very clear.
"Stop! I order you to stop immediately!" Lu Li began to yell like crazy.
"Hold on, hold on, you'll be fine right away!" said Sera, sweating profusely.
As the struggle became more and more intense, the crystal that was stuffed into the chest began to lose its color, gradually becoming transparent, and finally flew out of the wound, shattered into powder with a snap in mid-air, and then seemed to be manipulated by some kind of force, accurately penetrating into the skin near the wound, and finally forming a strange circular pattern.
But after the pattern was completed, it only existed for two or three seconds, and then disappeared completely.
"Whew-Whew-Whew-End...... Is it done?" Lu Li asked with a big gasp.
From the moment the crystal shattered, the illusion in front of his eyes completely disappeared, and the pain in his body was quickly and clearly transmitted to his brain. (To be continued.) )
