Chapter 90: Special Means
Saturday, Alchemy Guild, Guild Square.
In the square, Lilith came with her little brothers, and yesterday Peter had told her what Victor had said, and today she had come on time for her appointment.
In the hall of the Alchemy Guild, Victor and Hughes had been waiting for a long time.
"Princess Lilith, welcome to the Alchemy Guild, please come and sit down!" On the couch in the hall, Vido got up, he waved his hand at the couch, and he saw someone coming.
In front of the gate, Princess Lilith smiled, and seeing that Victor was so polite, her arrogant attitude unconsciously appeared. She led the group towards Victor, but she didn't speak to Victor at all.
It's the weekend, and there's no one else but the alchemical guards on duty. The hall was empty, and the echo of Lilith's high heels on the smooth floor was terrifying, and the sound of her footsteps was like royal pride.
"Princess Lilith, I am Hughes Wharton of the Imperial Capital Alchemy Guild, a master alchemist, and I am here to welcome you. Master Hughes nodded and bowed, and that was enough for him.
Lilith returned the salute, and several people behind her also respectfully introduced their identities, seeing that there was a master alchemist here, several people behind Lilith didn't even dare to sit on chairs.
"Sit down, you are my guests, and since you are here, you don't have to be restrained by anything, and you are entitled to sit here. Master Hughes is here to "watch the play", he doesn't have the idea of being the master today, he can't help but become a black face singer, and Victor naturally wants to sing white face.
As everyone sat down, Victor lifted a cover from the table, and saw a glass box under the cover containing a knife and several bottles of hemostatic medicine.
"Victor Corleone, is this your gift to me?" There was nothing on the table in front of them except the "surgical tools" that Victor had prepared.
Originally, Lilith thought that Victor had prepared some precious treasures for her, but she really didn't expect it to be this "ghost thing", and she froze for a moment.
Seeing that Princess Lilith didn't speak, beside her, Colin hurriedly pulled her corner, he lowered his head to Lilith's ear, and told her the original plan, Colin saw this thing, and already realized that something was wrong.
"Princess Lilith, please have tea. At the back of the hall, Peter came from the pantry, and Victor specially called him here today, and Peter was also going to participate in this "baptism" today.
When Peter came, Princess Lilith also felt that something was wrong, when Colin told her the plan just now, she thought that Colin was thinking too much, and now she is also a little scared. After taking a sip of tea, she couldn't help but speak, but the atmosphere in the hall was a little depressing.
"Victor Corleone, I'm not here for tea today, I'm here today to make a second bet with you. Last time I lost, I admit it. However, I believe that I will win this time, do you dare to gamble with me again?" Princess Lilith looked at Vido, she took a deep breath, and looked at Vido from head to toe.
If it weren't for Hughes's presence, she would have been angry, the Alchemy Guild is the place of the goddess Isis, this is just like the Holy See of the Church of Light, except for His Majesty the Emperor, few people dare to be presumptuous here.
Listening to Lilith's words, Victor didn't answer her, he just picked up the teapot and helped Lilith fill the teacup. "Vidor Corleone, this is a gold inscription card, in the Arathi Empire, this is worth 10,000 gold coins, and as a bet for today, if you win, it is yours. If you lose, I don't need you to give me money, you can just recognize me as the boss in the future. Seeing that Victor filled herself with tea, Lilith became more and more unable to see through Victor, and in a hurry, she directly took out the inscription card.
The golden inscription card contains nearly half of the net worth of her and the people behind her, which is equivalent to 10,000 gold coins, and she can already buy a few big houses in the imperial capital. You must know that a big house in the imperial capital is only worth more than a thousand gold coins.
"Princess Lilith, you should believe in the goddess of alchemy! If the goddess asks you to preach for her, I believe you will agree!" Seeing Lilith take out the inscription card, Victor was still not in a hurry, he picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and saw that the black tea brewed today was very beautiful.
Where is the beauty and ugliness of black tea, Victor is in a good mood, but everything is pleasing to the eye.
"Vidor Corleone, our royal family of Arathi all believe in the goddess of alchemy, why do you knowingly ask this! The goddess asked me to die, and I won't frown, but if you want me to submit to you, then don't think about it. "Lilith is sometimes "very two" and sometimes extremely shrewd. From Victor's words, she could hear what Victor meant.
Not to mention, there was Colin on the side to guide her. Colin had talked to Lilith about that information before he came.
"Princess Lilith, you said that if a man's stomach is broken, will he still live, and if I break my belly, do you think I will still live?" said this, and Victor picked up the scalpel from the table, and the knife spun in circles in his hand.
Originally, no matter what Victor said, Colin could have coped with it. It's just that when he heard Victor's words, even Colin didn't know what to answer. On the mainland, a person's stomach can't survive if it's opened, a small wound can survive with medicine, and a big wound can't be saved, this is a truth that everyone knows, Colin and Lilith don't know Victor's thoughts.
"Princess Lilith, I'll open the skylight and say something! Today I want you to see miracles, it's not my intention to let you preach, that's the Goddess's will, the Goddess asked me to give you the heart and liver in my belly, I can give it to you now, can you accept this gift from the Goddess?" Victor held the scalpel against his chest, he wasn't joking with Lilith.
"Colin, what should I do now! Is this Vidor Corleone crazy! I'll go, he's going to give me his life, this seems a little abnormal!" Lilith swallowed, not daring to look directly at Vido, she leaned into Colin's ear and asked in a mosquito-like voice, her hand holding her mouth trembling a little as she said that.
"Princess, I dare to guess what God means. He is a missionary, a descendant of the goddess Isis, the son of God, and I dare not make up my mind easily! If he can really burst his stomach and not die, then I am afraid that I can only listen to him today. Colin said this with a shudder, and his whole body trembled. Not only him, but also the rest of the people beside him were also scared to the extreme.
In the hall, the air seemed to be frozen, and Lilith lowered her head slightly, not knowing what to do.
"Princess Lilith, I give you my heart, and I did as the Goddess willed. Are you willing to preach for the Goddess? If you don't speak, I'll give you your consent. With that, Victor got up from the couch and walked over to Lilith, where blood was already on his clothes.
Victor's identity on Earth is that of a doctor, and for him, he knows how much blood will be shed, and how much people will not be unconscious and unwell. The blood was real, but it was just a skin wound to him.
Blood stained Victor's chest, as did his white robes, and blood dripped from the corners of his clothes to the ground, ticking and scaring Lilith and the others.
"Lilith, this is our second match, and I'm still betting with you. Do not be afraid, for my blood is for you. Victor walked up to Lilith and stopped, he held the knife in one hand and reached out to Lilith with the other, he knew Lilith was scared, he was forcing her to surrender.
"Boom, boom. Lilith shuddered, her teeth clattered together, and she was on the verge of collapse.
"Lilith, preach for the Goddess, this is the Goddess's command. The goddess will do miracles. This is your last chance, and you know, the goddess doesn't joke with us. Do you understand what I'm saying?" Victor snarled loudly, and he pulled his scalpel out. Under normal circumstances, his chest would not spurt blood, in order to stimulate Lilith, he deliberately asked Pamela to displace his blood vessels, the scalpel was pulled out by him, and suddenly, a stream of blood sprayed onto Lilith's face.
"I agree, I am willing to preach for the Goddess, Victor, I am willing to be your apostle. I am willing to give everything I have for the Goddess. Blood splattered on Lilith's face, and the last shred of her sanity vanished, and her whole being "collapsed". With tears in her eyes and trembling she opened her mouth, and when she said this, she fainted at once.
Lilith was stunned, and when she fainted, Victor smiled. His smile really made Colin shudder.
"Colin, Carlin, and others, you too can receive the glory of the goddess, are you willing to preach for the goddess, and if you refuse, then please leave the Alchemy Guild!" Victor spread his hands and opened his arms, he was now full of gods.
"I do. Colin Leon is here to be worshipped, and I would like to preach for the goddess. ”
"I, Karin Salman, am willing to preach for the Goddess. ”
"I do. ”
"I do, too. ”
It was a conspiracy just now, now it's a conspiracy, just now Victor was holding a knife to force Lilith to preach, now he didn't force Colin to them, now it's Pamela who is influencing Colin and their consciousness, in fact, Colin and they are not fully conscious now, under Pamela's influence, they are left with the pursuit of the goddess.
"I, Victor Corleone, are here to be honored. From this day on, you will preach to the Goddess, and you will enjoy the glory of the Goddess in the name of the Most Merciful and Virtuous Goddess Isis. Your path ahead is exalted, and you will be exalted under the feet of the Goddess. You shall be under my door, and I will keep a record of your audits. Swear to the glory of the goddess and Isis. Victor gave the people a memorial with his blood-stained hands.
In the house of Isis, the disciples and the righteous were to be marked by the missionaries, and the missionaries were to be marked by blood, which was a rule in the Code of Isis, and Victor could not break it.
"Peter, you also kneel. Now you too will receive the grace of the Goddess. After giving the memorization to Colin and the others, Victor turned his back to Peter, and with that, he helped Colin and the others up.
"I, Peter Simon, would like to preach for the Goddess, never be afraid, whether I live or die, and I will give everything for the glory of the Goddess. Peter gritted his teeth, fell on his knees, and when he said this, he fell on his knees, and he fell on the ground, which is the highest courtesy, and this is for God.
"I, Victor Corleone, am here to give you a salute. From this day forward, preach for the Goddess. The waters of the sanctuary cleanse your soul, and from this day on, you are sinless and righteous. From this day onwards you will receive the glory of the Goddess, under My Door, and from this day onwards you will be renamed, St. Peter, which the Goddess has given you. The word "holy" in this world cannot be used casually, except for the missionaries, and Victor would not have given Peter the word "holy" if he had not had high hopes for him.
When Peter had been honored, Victor helped him up. The two apostles: St. Peter and Lilith, and the six apostles: Colin and Carlin...... , all of them combined, is already a lot of force.
The Arathi Empire's missionary journey had taken a big step forward today, and Victor looked around and saw Master Hughes's complicated nod.
