The hall of the Governor of the Sea Mansion leads to different rooms, and the number of windows itself is quite scarce, and even if the red moon is shining at the moment, only a limited amount of light can seep in, making the place appear dark and hazy.

In such an environment, although the deputy assistant priest holding the "Ring of the Queen of the Sea" deliberately slowed his steps, he still inevitably made a slight reverberating sound.

Watching him walk step by step towards the staircase leading to the basement, Lumian suddenly had an idea: when he entered the basement, if the deputy assistant priest wanted to replace the real "Ring of the Queen of the Sea" with a fake one, he could do it completely unnoticed.

This is due to the fact that the other vice-priests are in the hall, the "Governor of the Sea" is undergoing physical transformation, the "Handmaidens of the Sea" accompany them, and the Lords of the Sea are scattered in other places outside the basement.

Lumián frowned, glanced at the other assistant priest diagonally opposite, and spoke in an indicated voice to Juan. Jorge said: "In the annual vigil ceremony, a deputy priest alone sends the 'Ring of the Queen of the Sea' to the basement, and then takes it out after an hour?"

He accented the word "alone".

Juan. Aoro nodded slightly: "Yes."

"No additional protection is needed in this building......."

Speaking of which, Juan. Oro came to an abrupt end.

He also thought that this was a good opportunity to replace the "Ring of the Queen of the Sea".

Just because the enemies outside can't break in doesn't mean that the assistant priests inside are fine!

Lumian immediately said to Juan. Oro said: "I'll follow, or you?"

Juan. Oro took this very seriously, stood up and said, "I'll go."

He used his own ability to force his steps not to stagger, and soon caught up with the deputy assistant priest, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go together, I want to take the opportunity to worship the ancestors."

The other assistant priest had no opinion.

Watching the two of them light the lantern and go down the stairs into the basement, Lumian naturally deduced in his mind what would happen next: "Put the 'Ring of the Queen of the Sea' on that broken stone platform...... Worship the ancestors....... return to the ground ........ an hour before entering and taking it out. …”

"For an hour, the 'Ring of the Queen of the Sea' was left alone in the basement, completely unprotected...... If there is a person hidden in the basement in advance, then he can easily replace the real 'Ring of the Queen of the Sea' with a fake one........

"Of course, it's really not easy to sneak in here and hide, I can't do it, at most stay for two minutes, and I'll be blocked by the sea clans....."

"The Ring of the Queen of the Sea" should be placed on that broken stone platform, if there is a change, the change ......"

Thinking of this, Lumian remembered what had happened to the "Lies" ear clip after it was placed on the broken stone platform in the basement: the items of this "soothsayer" route inspired the motifs representing "apprentice" and "thief" respectively, and added the ability to steal the power of others for half a month!

"Lies" are okay, but "The Ring of the Queen of the Sea" is okay?

Although it is not an item of the "soothsayer", "apprentice", or "thief" route, it is also made according to a ritual left by some of Amon, and may be able to stimulate the special nature of the basement a little, so that it can gradually infect itself with the stealing trait.

Right! Since the essence of the sea festival ritual is to drain the power from the seal on the bottom of the sea and keep it for yourself, the "Ring of the Queen of the Sea", which is the key item, should not only be able to open the seal to a certain extent, but also have the ability to steal power, and can spread the harvest to different roles in the ceremony, the main priest gets the most, the assistant priest and the "maid of the sea" who actually acts as the assistant sacrifice Secondly, the deputy assistant priest and the sailors Again, those who have the same power within the scope of the ceremony can also get a little!

That is, Juan. Oro's understanding of the ordination ritual is incomplete, the link of "honoring the ancestors" is also an integral part of the ceremony, and it is the most critical part, if you do not "honor the ancestors", then the sea sacrifice ceremony will only open the seal, unable to steal the gathered power, but let them explode and escape....... Lumian just had a terrifying feeling of occult illiteracy, and was suddenly shocked.

He found himself missing a crucial detail before:

According to Ms. "Magician's" interpretation of the role of the "Ring of the Queen of the Sea" and her own speculation on the essence of the entire prayer ceremony, if the real "Ring of the Queen of the Sea" is replaced by the fake ring ordered by "April Fools" to Toler, and the fake ring that was hidden in the belly of the lamb and sent to the salute ship and replaced by the "Bard", then the subsequent ritual should not have the phenomenon of the sea fury devouring the "Governor of the Sea", all the deputy priests and some sailors!

The fake ring had not gone through the ring-making ceremony in the previous part, and the patterns, symbols, and structures on it were not special to the corresponding occult, and even if the "Governor of the Sea" recited those words, it would not be able to infuse the energy into it and make it open the seal!

As a completely fake ring, it should not be able to cause any phenomenon, but because it failed to extract the power of gathering, it led to an increase in shipwrecks and worse weather in this sea area.

In order to conform to last year's reality, the fake ring that the "Governor of the Sea" threw out at the end must have actually completed the first part of the ring-making ceremony, but it was not put into the basement to "pay homage to the ancestors", so that it could open the seal to a certain extent, but it could not extract and occupy the gathered power, causing them to suddenly explode, thus making the sea "furious"!

Lumien's eyes narrowed slightly, and as a "conspirator", he had already understood the key: there were two "Rings of the Queen of the Sea" on the ship, but they were both fake.

The ring that was brought to the ceremonial ship by the deputy assistant priest was also fake, or rather, there was no real "Ring of the Queen of the Sea" in last year's sea prayer ceremony!

The "Ring of the Queen of the Sea", which has gone through the entire process of the ring-making ceremony in the cognition of the Fisheries Guild, has not been put on the stone platform in the basement to complete the link of "honoring the ancestors", so it is also fake, and it is a fake ring that does not have the most critical role!

The sub-priest who brought the "Ring of the Queen of the Sea" into the basement last year and took it out is likely to have a problem too!

The fringe members of "April Fool's Day" are not trusted, and what they do should be embellishments that do not affect the whole plan, and the fake ring put in the belly of the lamb and the performance of the "bard" are most likely to prepare for the follow-up investigation, in order to cover up the really important clues....... Lumián's thoughts are instantaneous, Juan. Oro and the assistant priest returned to the hall.

"Put it on the stone platform." The head of the Fishermen's Guild, disguised as Jorge, spoke to Lumian in a suppressed voice.

Lumian retracted his thoughts and asked casually, "Who was in charge of delivering the 'Ring of the Queen of the Sea' to the basement last year?"

"I don't know, there is no special arrangement, anyone can do it, and the four deputy assistants in the hall last year all died in the fury of the sea that failed in the ceremony." Juan. Oro understood what Lumian was suspicious.

Dead? I'm afraid that it may not be ....... that Lumian doesn't have time to find the corresponding items to channel now, so he can only ask instead:

"Is there any one of them who is very familiar with the ring-making ceremony and knows the details of the 'Ring of the Queen of the Sea'?"

"No, they're all serving as assistant priests for the first time." Juan. Oro shook his head, "And, as I said, those who know these secrets are still alive. ”

That assistant priest isn't "Salted Egg Superman"........ So who is that? Lumi was relieved and had the answer: it was a "crazy woman"!

This one used the same method as the "Bard" to change his appearance, and with the help of "Salted Egg Superman", he became a deputy assistant priest, leaving the final step of the production of the "Ring of the Queen of the Sea" unfinished, and then took it aboard the ceremonial ship.

Lumian was still wondering how the "madwoman" could locate the "bard" in that special sea area and rescue the "bard" in time and accurately, but now, he knows the answer: the "madwoman" is at the scene, on the ceremonial boat, right next to the "bard", no need to locate, no need to time!"

He originally thought that the "Mad Woman" was cooperating with the "Bard", but now it seems that the "Bard" is cooperating with the "Mad Woman", ready to help when the situation changes, and take on the responsibility of false clues.

Damn, the ability of "Facelings" is annoying, and "April Fool's Day" is annoying! Lumian's mood fluctuated, and he cursed in his heart uncontrollably, relying on the characteristics of "ascetic" to not break out.

More importantly, he figured out all the problems of last year's sea prayer ceremony, but he still couldn't think of who the "Salted Egg Superman" was, and he couldn't think of what tricks "April Fool's Day" would play this year.

The night passed quietly.

On a sailboat in the harbor that was outdated, Chanem, wearing a low-topped round-brimmed felt hat, stepped out of the cabin and asked Norfi, who was standing at the edge of the deck, "Can you enter that special sea now?"

Norfi nodded and said, "Yes, after midnight, the stars will enter a specific position."

All Lumien asked her and Butna to do was go to other ports on the same coastline and rent a boat that would allow them to go out to sea for a few days.

Chanem laughed and said, "Then let's go!"

Seeing that Norfi and Batna were both surprised and puzzled, he explained simply: "If you follow the salute ship of the 'Governor of the Sea', you will definitely be discovered by the people of the Fisheries Guild, and if you set off an hour or two late, you will lose the meaning of doing so, so let's go in advance, hide there, and wait patiently for the opportunity!"

Although he didn't know what opportunity the other party was talking about, Norfi didn't ask, and replied with some expectation: "Okay."

Chanem then looked at Batna: "Do you want to go to sea together?" It's dangerous. ”

Batner's expression changed repeatedly, and it took more than ten seconds before he said, "Go!"

Chanem gave a "tsk" but didn't say anything.

At this time, Norfi looked at the other area of the deck, frowned and asked, "What about the sailors here?" Without them, we wouldn't be able to go to sea, and they wouldn't be able to deal with much danger. ”

Chanem smiled: "Don't worry, we have sailors who can handle danger."

As soon as he finished speaking, he half-turned, raised his right hand to the third floor of the cabin, and clasped his index finger and thumb into a circle, stretching the other three fingers.

It wasn't long before Nolfi and Butner saw the captain, first mate, second mate, and all the sailors staggering out of their positions.

They all closed their eyes tightly and sleepwalked in a column along the gangway to the dock.

Butner and Norfi's eyes froze, as if they were in a terrifying dream.
