Chapter 226: Successful Promotion
In the burial chamber, Lewis sipped his own wine and jerky, waiting for his fateful moment.
Here, it is difficult for the disasters of the outside world to affect him, and only the occasional collapse accident poses a threat to his life.
His hand holding the wine glass suddenly stopped in mid-air, and his brow furrowed:
"I feel that something is trying to scry me, to exert a little influence on it, and as long as the other person is not far superior to me, it will not be able to use divination to find me."
Taking advantage of his anti-divination properties, Lewis interfered with divination to a certain extent, and he walked around the tomb, observing the surrounding situation.
If the promotion ceremony is disturbed by the outside world, then it is likely to cause a chain reaction that will lead to the failure of the promotion in the end.
"The coat of arms that symbolizes the Amun family has been damaged, and the tomb has lost its original purpose, so I have to be careful that someone breaks in or destroys it.
While I'm sure my life won't be in danger, I don't want anyone to ruin my promotion. ”
Lewis opened his pocket watch and glanced at it, 24 hours had passed since his initial arrival, and as long as he held on for another 24 hours, the opportunity for promotion would appear.
……
Boris inquired in Trier and, through the answers of passers-by, determined where Lewis had finally stepped out of the carriage.
The sky was always covered with scattered dark clouds, thunder and rain like the wrath of the Lord of the Storm, constantly pouring down, constantly attacking a small hill.
"It's an exaggerated phenomenon, but because of this, I can find him even without divination."
Boris put away the citrine pendant in his hand for divination, he didn't know what kind of transcendent person Lewis belonged to, and he was extremely careful in doing things.
The monkey stood on Boris's shoulder, and he accompanied Boris towards the center of the lightning, shivering.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning fell nearby, and Boris went numb and fell straight down.
After a few seconds, he got up from the puddle and shook the dirty water off his body.
"Lewis. What the hell is Harvey doing, is it a ritual to summon the Lord of the Storm? Boris glanced at the sky and felt a little heavier.
The opponent was slightly stronger than he thought, and the lightning that kept shooting down seemed to imply that Lewis was strong, and it only took one blow to seriously injure an extraordinary person of his level.
After all, before being promoted to demigod, the strength of the transcendent is still within the understandable range, and the vast majority of transcendents will be injured if they are hit by a rifle, and they will also die if they are involved in a natural disaster.
He always dared to walk around the perimeter of lightning, which made the process much slower. But even so, he was often attacked by lightning, and he was particularly unlucky.
After a few hours, Boris finally found the entrance to the catacomb, and his mood was a little lighter, and he pushed open the stone door engraved with the words "Welcome" and walked inside.
There are metal candlesticks on both sides of the corridor, some of which have burned out, while others remain.
Boris wasn't stupid enough to light a candle, and darkness was where he showed his strength.
"Lewis wasn't here, I didn't perceive his malice, which means he hadn't noticed me."
Suddenly, a metal candlestick collapsed without warning, and in the process of falling, the metal candlestick hit the protruding stone, which just happened to bounce into Boris's head.
"Unlucky!"
Boris touched the back of his head, and although he could sense malice, he had little resistance to such an accident.
The next moment, another metal candlestick loosened, and Boris struck again.
"How could I be so unlucky? This is not normal! ”
After several hits in quick succession, Boris began to be cautious, only to see that the top of the tunnel began to show signs of collapse.
"Find Lewis, eat him as fast as you can, and get the blessing that belongs to the monarch."
Boris had sticky black liquid dripping from his face, and his body gradually melted completely, and finally only a puddle of black liquid remained.
But the puddle of black liquid seemed to be alive, and it flowed rapidly towards the gate at the end of the corridor.
Soon, the liquid entered the gate of the corridor, Boris condensed a head, he saw Lewis looking down at him above, and the malice of the other party instantly appeared in his mind:
"Wait a minute, Lewis will take out a golden phalanx bone and summon the Sun Holy Water to inflict damage on me."
"That's not right! He changed his mind, and he was ready to summon the flames directly and burn me. ”
"That's not right! He was going to shoot me with a revolver, the bullet was engraved with the spell of the Sun Realm, and it had a very strong restraint effect on me......"
The two were at a stalemate for more than a minute, and Lewis stared at the puddle of black liquid and sighed silently.
The picture of the future foresight changed and changed, and it was clear that the demon was able to read his thoughts and restrained his attacks accordingly.
"I can't wait any longer, this demon is tempting my desires, and when the desires are aroused to a certain extent, my desires will explode and seriously hurt me."
Suddenly, an extremely strange image appeared before Lewis's eyes, and he stepped back some distance and silently recited the prayer statement:
"Exclusive to Lewis. Harvey's Magical Items;
The key of light hidden in spirituality;
The great power to rewrite the torrent of destiny ......"
As the divination ended, the pitch-black liquid gradually formed a human form, and Boris appeared in front of Lewis's eyes.
"What did you do to me?" Boris's face was hideous, he roared, bat-like wings and horns grew at the same time, and he was transforming into a demon.
Lewis snapped his fingers, and Boris's demonization faded away, his body twisting and deforming.
"For demons, it is an immutable rule to surrender to the strong, so you are surrendering to me, because I have qualities that are much higher than yours."
"Smack......
Boris exploded, and his flesh splattered everywhere, staining the walls and floor of the tomb with a large area of crimson.
Lewis was no exception, and the fishy black liquid stained his body.
However, he didn't care about this little thing, but was surprised that he was able to get the power of the Mother Tree of Desire.
"As I guessed, I myself was not polluted by the Mother Tree of Desire, what was really polluted was the key to light within me."
The next moment, he went to the corner and rummaged through the suitcase, took out the "winner" potion from the suitcase, and drank it in one gulp.
There was no special feeling in the body, as if the potion did not have any side effects at all, everything was so natural.
This is 'fate', and as long as the most suitable fate node is found, there is no such thing as getting out of control after taking a potion, even if he does not meet the ritual requirements that Blau is talking about.
