(389) Sacrificial rituals

"William, you go and move the cabinet over there, and clean up the furniture in the middle of the room, it seems to be a little heavy, can you move it?"

William Einfoot rolled up his sleeves, revealing his knotted upper arms: "No problem, leave the strength to me, you just have to concentrate on the ritual." ”

Konstanz Midknight laid the scroll flat in the center of the room, then took out nine tallow candles, arranged them evenly around the perimeter, and lit them one after another with a flintlock torch machine.

"William, turn off all kerosene lamps."

"Okay!"

Soon, all the lights in the ward went out, leaving only the faint glow of the candles.

Constance took off the ring he was wearing and placed it in the center of the circle.

"What kind of ring is this, I haven't seen you wear it before?" William asked.

"I forgot to tell you, this thing was also taken from the corpse of the dragon knight, according to the ancient voodoo records, this ring is inlaid with an alien meteorite, which can be used as a road marker."

"Signs? What's that? ”

"Dao signs are the key to the sacrificial ritual, such as the meteorite on this ring, this stone comes from other stars, it can lead the creatures of the four-dimensional world to our world, it is equivalent to a lighthouse to guide the direction of the ship."

"Understood, all ready now?"

"Wait a minute, I'm going to set up a guide sign to make the creature understand who needs to be treated."

I saw Constance take out a box of chess pieces and place the wooden chess pieces into an arrow, pointing in the direction of Edgar's hospital bed.

Then he took out a thick notebook, and read the words in his mouth,

Something strange happened, the twelve-pointed star circle on the scroll emitted a faint blue light, the windows in the room were closed, and there was no air circulation, but both of them felt a breeze, and the flame of the candle swayed violently.

William looked around nervously, and his right hand involuntarily reached for the hilt of his saber: "Damn, it's like a scene from a horror storybook, I'm sweating all over my body right now." ”

After reciting the black witchcraft incantation, Constance let out a sigh of relief and said:

"It's coming."

A strange figure appeared on one of the walls of the ward, looking like a demon in a church mural, with a tall body, spiky skin, and horns on its head.

The most terrifying thing is that its eyes are projected onto the window, and the pupils are striated, like the eyes of a goat.

William Einfurt made a cross on his chest in horror, and although he was not religious, he hoped to seek spiritual solace in it:

"I finally understand why I chose goats as sacrifices, folk goats have demonic blood, and it's true. Konstanz, what the hell is this guy you summoned here? It doesn't look like it's easy to mess with. ”

Konstanz spread his hands and said: "To be honest, I don't know where this guy is sacred, I'm only a novice in dark witchcraft, I don't know anything about anything, I only know that this ritual is specifically for saving people." ”

The shadows on the wall seemed to have lost their patience and began to move slowly, and the eyes on the window seemed more and more fierce, and William took a step back in fear: "Will it hurt us?" ”

"No, we are safe, because its true body has not arrived, the shadow on this wall is just a doppelganger projection of high-latitude life in our three-dimensional world, its real body is completely incomprehensible to us mortals, according to the law in the book, just look at it and go crazy."

"It's all up to you to help, save my sister, please." Konstanz bowed respectfully to the shadow on the wall.

"Everything is ready, all that remains is the sacrifice, William, you have great strength, help me to hold the goat to the ground, and don't let it move."

William Einfurt took out a carrot and fed it to the goat, watched it chew on it, stroked the horn with his hand and said, "Sorry, boy, this is your last meal." ”

Then, William suddenly exerted force, pressed the goat firmly to the ground, and with his other hand took the metal basin used for the operation to catch the goat's blood.

The goat, sensing the danger, began to struggle frantically, and William pressed his whole body weight to hold it in place:

"Hurry up, Constance, I didn't think this sheep had a lot of strength."

Konstanz Midknight clenched the sacrificial knife with his right hand, and with his left hand, he ripped the wool off the goat's throat and took a deep breath, but he still didn't dare to do it.

"Hey! I'm useless! ”

He spat on the ground and shook his head: "I can't do it...... I've never killed a chicken in my life, and I've watched other people's dissect rats and frogs in the lab, Brother William, or you. ”

With that, he handed out the sacrificial knife, and William took it.

"It's not your fault, Constance, it's much harder to kill a sheep than it is to shoot a fly, and my hands are already stained with Lierao's blood, so it doesn't matter if I come."

William pressed the goat's spine with his right hand, and held the sacrificial knife against his throat with his left hand: "I'll give you a good time, fellow." ”

I saw him cut his throat with a knife, and sheep blood splattered out.

William pressed the wound down and put all the goat's blood in the basin prepared in advance.

Then he deftly flipped his wrist and pierced the skull with a precise slash, piercing the goat's brain, destroying its central nervous system, and the goat's struggle came to an abrupt halt and quickly collapsed.

"It's neat, William, you're a butcher." Konstanz laughed.

"My mother taught me this method so that I could kill the animals quickly and make them suffer less."

"Let me think about the next steps, yes, I have to let you help with the rest, according to the book, you need to take out the goat's organs and put them in a sealed container, Mr. Butcher, excuse me."

William's expression was silent, and he slashed the goat's belly with precision and swiftness: "In order to save her, I don't care if there is more blood!" ”

Then he took out the goat's heart, liver, kidneys, pancreas, and other organs in turn and put them in a glass jar.

Looking at the large pile of soft and collapsed sheep intestines on the ground, Constance "vomit!" The ground spat out.

"It's a shame that you didn't eat just now, man, you're really not fit to go to the battlefield, the smell there will make you vomit for a month."

Konstanz vomited for a while before he recovered: "Vomit...... It's disgusting, now I'm going to sign the deed and complete the deal. ”

He dipped his quill in sheep's blood, then signed his name next to the twelve-pointed circle, Konstanz Midnet.

William asked uneasily, "Signing such a strange document, I'm worried about your safety right now, man." ”

Konstanz trembled, and forcibly mustered up his courage and said: "Everyone is afraid of this kind of thing, my sister is in danger, how can I, the second brother, sit idly by?" Whatever danger he is, come on! ”

Suddenly, the twelve-pointed star circle burned, and the entire scroll was burned to ashes,

The large basin containing the goat's blood began to shake violently, the goat's blood inside was decreasing, the goat's carcass was rapidly **, and finally turned into dry bones, the glass jars were shattered, all the internal organs contained in it disappeared, and the atmosphere in the room became more strange and ghostly.

Konstanz excitedly shouted:

"Great! It accepted the sacrifice! The deal is done! Oops, wait......"

Konstanz Midknight stood stunned, as if he had seen something indescribable.

William slapped his friend on the back in an attempt to wake him up, but an invisible force threw him into a corner, knocking him into the stars.

William endured the severe pain and got up, stepped on a chair and lit the kerosene lamp on the roof, and then he saw a terrifying and strange scene:

With blood pouring from his mouth, eyes, nose, and ears, Konstanz Midknight cried out:

"Damn! I've signed the contract, and you've accepted the sacrifice, so fulfill the contract! Cure my sister, you bastard! What do you want to do? ”

Then, he was stunned again, and said in an extremely strange tone:

"Lord Evil God...... You are so great, I will serve you for the rest of my life! Hahaha! SLAMMALIGUMALAM! ”

The whole building began to shake violently, a strange cold wind hit, all nine butter candles were extinguished, the shadows on the walls disappeared, the indescribable thing seemed to have left, and the air was filled with a rancid smell.

William threw down the sacrificial knife and ran to the bedside, finding Edgar still asleep and showing no signs of improvement, apparently, the sacrificial ritual had failed.

"Ahh All that remained in the ward was the hysterical laughter of Crown Prince Konstanz.

The Royal Sanatorium was agitated, and a royal physician shouted, "Was there an earthquake just now?" What's that laughter all about? ”

The head nurse's voice said, "I don't know, it seems to have come from the hospital room of Her Royal Highness the Princess, I just saw a strange shadow passing over the wall, and it scared me to death." ”

"Not good, it could be an assassin from the Kingdom of Solan! Sound the alarm, guards! Guardsman! ”

Soon, the heavy footsteps of the soldiers sounded on the stairs......
