Hearing Aihuas's voice, the guy at the front desk was suddenly startled and sobered up.

"Are you...... Want to spend the night here? ”

He looked at Ivas intently, then at Sherlock, who had a stinky face, and at the storm outside, and suddenly replied fluently: "A clean room with dinner for two people, a total of four red coins and three copper coins." What's your name, and I'm going to register? ”

"Your prices are quite stable, aren't they?"

"Indeed," the front desk guy nodded, "It's been this price for so many years." ”

"Sixty years ago, I came here at this price. I didn't expect that after 60 years, this place has not changed at all. ”

Eivus replied calmly.

When the front desk brother heard this, his work immediately paused.

Then he looked up, a look of horror on his face.

Ivus slapped him on the head unceremoniously: "Are you a ghost, am I a ghost?" Call your boss out! ”

"The boss is not ......"

The front desk whispered.

But he was interrupted by Aihuas: "No, the boss is here.

"—I want to see Alice. I have an appointment. ”

As soon as Aihuas's words fell, the body of the little brother at the front desk gradually became transparent.

His expression faded to indifference, and he looked up at Evas and Sherlock, as well as Liz standing behind them, and slowly floated back into the counter.

The oil lamp flickered for a moment, then went out. The lobby of the hotel suddenly became dark, and only a faint light from outside shone in.

"What's going on?"

Sherlock was a little nervous.

In the dark. He came over very vigilantly and whispered, "Why did you have a showdown directly?" ”

"Because I do have an appointment."

Eivers was not nervous at all.

He took out the cards he had prepared in advance from his pocket, as well as various ritual materials. Arrange them neatly at the hotel front desk and start preparing for card making.

"You're wrong about one thing, Sherlock. When you say, 'Alice is no longer the innocent girl she was sixty years ago,' and that's not true.

"What we experienced in the last promotion ceremony was really what happened 60 years ago. It was indeed Alice, who had just become an Earthbound Spirit sixty years ago...... But in fact, the person who plays Alice is the real Alice.

"I had a mission to kill Alice, the Earthbound Spirit after the possession. Perhaps in real history, she possessed someone, but she regretted it...... So during the promotion ceremony, she did not possess until the end.

In other words, Alice at that time was Alice who was beyond the promotion ceremony.

Ivus whispered as he busied himself, "Why is our ceremony an absent ceremony?" I've thought about it for a long time, and there may be a reason...... It was Alice, who was in the middle of it, who occupied a place in the ceremony. ”

Evas had told Lily that there was no apostle in the Proving Ground long ago. At that time, there will be some illusions crouching nearby, invading the promotion ceremony and devouring the souls of those who participate in the promotion.

"But Alice sneaked in, but she didn't attack us."

Hearing this, Sherlock reacted: "She's not here for our souls, but for ......"

"She's asking us for help.

"As Mr. Priest said, the Earth Bound Spirits here are so powerful that even the Bishop can't handle them. And since it was banned, there have been no records of disappearances...... In other words, she didn't eat the souls of anyone else, except for those fugitives who were desperate. The reversed sign had apparently been changed after the ceremony, because she was afraid that we would be scared away by the sign and wouldn't come looking for her.

"Earthbound spirits are undead after all. If you can't eat your soul and can't be replenished by the power of dusk, you will eventually die.

"And as a man who has been crushed into the foundation as a human pillar since he was just literate, he has been turned into a spirit bound to the earth...... After that, there were no more travelers here, and the ghost girl who had been lonely for sixty years. I don't think she wants to die just yet.

"So, the other way around...... Why was she able to enter the promotion ceremony under Merlin's nose? Merlin was not unaware of her existence, but acquiesced in her existence......"

Ivas said, sweeping the dust off the Grim Reaper's cards completely.

The skeleton rides on the back of a pale mare and holds the Rose Banner. People fell like ears of wheat before Him, and resistance was powerless.

Everything else is ready and there.

Sherlock didn't know what Ivas was going to do, and stood there a little nervously.

At this moment, the candle that had been extinguished before suddenly turned on again, and then began to flicker and flicker violently.

Every time the lights flickered, a little blonde girl with a blue face flashed out. And after the light went out, she dissipated again.

Sherlock took a sharp breath, his nerves tense.

Even though Ivas said she had no ill intentions, Sherlock couldn't help but clench his fists. The four-system mana flowed in his body at high speed, ready to attack.

Eventually, the fire was extinguished once again.

And with a flash of bright lightning, the translucent girl quietly appeared in front of Eivus.

She didn't play like she did in the ceremony.

Instead, he quietly placed something black on the table, and glanced at Sherlock. As the lightning dissipated, the rolling thunder rang out, and she vanished again.

Aihuas reached out and touched it, and the attribute panel appeared in front of him:

【Corrupted Demon Hunter +3】

【Extraordinary Weapon (Purple)】

[Firearms, revolvers, capacity 5 rounds]

[9mm bullet (0/5)]

[Characteristics: The bullets it shoots turn into cursed bullets, and the damage to flesh is significantly increased]

[Corrupt Style: This gun has been corrupted and needs to be repaired before it can be used.] 】

[Mod - Fragile Focus: When you don't take damage for 5 seconds, your accuracy gradually increases, and when you don't take damage for 15 seconds, it will increase to the max]

[Mod-Graceful Aim: Accuracy Significantly Increased]

[Mod - Panic Draw: The accuracy of the first bullet is reduced, and the damage is greatly increased]

"Do you like this ......"

A light voice sounded, but with a little fear, like a child who had suddenly become very well-behaved and a little clamped after doing something: "I'll give it to you." But it may be broken......"

Obviously.

This is Agni's weapon sixty years ago.

Unlike Jacob, he didn't make it out. The 0/5 magazine revealed his last fear and despair.

And in these sixty years, Alice, who has nowhere to go, has apparently broken the gun. The subtle changes in its name, features, style, and mods are proof of that.

Although during the ceremony, she found that Ivas was interested in the gun...... But she couldn't give the original gun to Ivus.

That's why she's a little scared.

Seeing this very clear friendly gesture, Sherlock immediately reacted.

"I see...... It's Wei Zhe! ”

Those who have died and have souls are stripped of the sixfold realm. Generally speaking, undead spirits have no intelligence and no "personality".

But obviously...... Whether it's Alice in the ritual or Alice now, both are intellectual. It's not high, but it does exist.

Wei Zhe does have such a hobby - he likes to make contracts with the undead and give them wisdom. Wild Hunt is like that, and it's not surprising to give it to Alice now.

It's just that......

"If she just wants to rest in peace," Sherlock wondered, "what's the difference between quietly dissipating and being dispersed?" ”

"Let's not mention watching yourself slowly die but not being able to do anything about it, which is different from dying happily......"

Ivus said as he injected his dark attribute mana into the amber, "Maybe what she's looking forward to is that I can get her out of here." ”

The original golden-red amber turned dark at a speed visible to the naked eye, like charred coal.

- A full thirty points of dark attribute mana.

The mana that was enough to construct the "Field Card: Shadow Cellar" was thrown into it by Ivus.

"So you can do it?"

Sherlock asked rhetorically, "Let the Earth Bound Spirit no longer be 'Earth Bound' and change the nature of its life?" ”

"I really can."

Eivus said calmly.

He placed the charred amber on top of the Death Card, then picked up the "Yellow Spring Water" taken from the swamp of Eagle Headland, the name that Evas had just given it.

If thirty points of dark attribute mana are used to seal the Earthbound Spirit, Alice can be turned into a temporary summon of herself.

- [Companion Card: Earthbound Spirit].

If she wants to rest in peace, she only needs twenty mana points to make [Spell Card: Nightmare Grip]. In that way, when her strength is drained, it will naturally dissipate.

You can walk and live as much as you want, whatever you want. Anyway, she wasn't in the construction of Ivus for the time being.

So, if nothing else...... This should be a temptation from Wei Zhe.

Ivus had borrowed the power of the Celestial Division and the Pillar God too many times. Although the sheep that were woolened did not react by themselves, it was normal for the smart sheep who were watching to be suspicious after seeing that a sheep had been picked.

But it doesn't matter.

The secrets of this part of the Grave Sin Scholars can be told to them.

The secret that Ivus really can't tell...... It's the Ouroboros Ritual and the fall of the future pillar god.

The former foreshadows the deprivation of Tenji's power, and the latter is the death of the pillar god.

Everything else is a minor problem compared to this. If you want to see it, let's watch it.

- Maybe I'll have to read your old man's name next time.

So the corners of Aihuas's mouth rose slightly, and he whispered:

"I beg Amber, the god of nine, the god of the pinnacle, the god of perfection and eternity—"

As he spoke, Ivus poured the "water of the Yellow Spring" into it.

But the water didn't soak the tarot cards. Instead, it solidifies like ice...... As Ivus poured it out, the dim yellow water flowed on the tarot cards and spread on the table in the front desk. The grave soil melted into it, and together with the water condensed into a thin, dirty, yellowish layer of ice.

"Alice."

Ivus took two steps back and called softly, "It's your turn, you choose—you'll understand." ”

Soon, the candle flame flickered again.

The illusory little girl, who had become translucent, quietly appeared beside Ivus.

She padded her feet and pressed her hand on the tarot card.

The card just like that gradually changed its image under the thin layer of ice.

The skeleton knight, who originally rode a white horse, gradually became a charcoal-black, scythe-wielding Skeletron.

In the lower right corner of the picture is a blue scorpion, symbolizing the death of the flesh. On the left side of the scorpion is a lily that looks like a "α", and on the right is a lotus flower that looks like a "Ω", meaning that the physical body exists between the beginning and the end.

The skeleton has an eagle in its black crown - this symbolizes spiritual death.

On the left side of the picture is a snake entangled in a fish. This symbolizes the death of fate.

Beneath the scythe is a decapitated man. A soul floated out of it......

This symbolizes the death of the soul, as well as the rebirth after death.

The Grim Reaper card is the end, the death. But it also foreshadows rebirth after death.

Finally, as Alice vanished. The dark inn was bright again. The storm outside also disappeared without a trace.

And the card floated up of its own accord and flew into Ivus's hand.

The attributes of the card have automatically appeared in his eyes:

[Follower: Earthbound Spirit (Death)]

[Level: 40]

[Dusk Path, Attribute Dark]

[Necessary: Dark 3]

【Action, Summon】

[Effect: Assign a hostile target to hallucinate, then summon Alice, the Earthbound Spirit, to fight for you.] Earthbound spirits are treated as summons and last for one minute. The illusion disappears immediately after being killed or dissipated, and the duration of the Earthbinder is refreshed when the hostile target trapped in the illusion is killed. 】
