It's like turning into a fetus and returning to its mother's womb.

It's like relaxing and soaking in a hot spring...... The moist and warm liquid made people so enchanted that even their mood became calm.

When Ivus regained consciousness, he heard the sound of the tide rising and falling around him.

The heavy smell of blood came along with the sound of people talking.

He opened his eyes and saw a dark waning moon hanging above the black and red sky.

And beneath their feet, the sea of blood foamed at the white foam, and the tide ebbed and flowed like a moonlit sea.

In the middle of them is a huge brass mechanical dancer. She folded her hands in front of her and stood gracefully motionless. There are butterfly-like wings on its back, but these wings are not biological insect wings, but feathers made of countless extremely thin gears and metal pieces.

Ivas and Lily appeared at about the same time.

This time, Ivus didn't directly let the Shadow Demon attach itself to him, covering his whole body.

Instead, another way of camouflage was adopted -

Anyway, Eivas's hair is very long now, but it is usually tied in a ponytail. Now he untied his hair, put it all down, and put on Lily's clothes again—and then the Shadow Fiend was covered again, and Ivas only looked at the black afterimage that looked like it was "character unlocked", and it looked like it was a woman.

Lily, on the other hand, took the opposite disguise.

She changed into Ivus's men's coat and wore a large-brimmed hat on her head—it just so happened that Ivas had brought a gray trench coat and top hat with her when she went out this time. Now it's time for Lily.

Although Lily's long curly gray hair still hung down at her waist without any cover, she subtly switched her posture to that of a man. Just looking at her posture of crossing her fingers, leaning back on the back of the chair, and folding her legs, it is difficult to think that "Mr. Gray" at this moment is a woman.

Because according to Ivus's previous statement, Miss Aleister is actually a woman.

Although some people already know that Aleister is Aihuas...... Her Majesty, for example, and the Great Guardian. But this is still a secret that outsiders don't know after all.

- Maybe this information gap will suddenly be useful at some point in the future. So Ivas simply changed into Lily's clothes, intending to play the identity of "Miss Aleister" to the end.

Anyway, he doesn't have to do anything, and he doesn't even have to paint his makeup - he can't see his face clearly during the promotion ceremony, and his voice will be distorted to a certain extent, so he can only judge the true identity of the other party from his posture, clothing, tone and hairstyle.

As for speaking -

Originally, Aleister was also in charge of the Shadow Fiend to speak.

Now it was just a matter of moving him from that dry, hoarse, monster-like voice to that of Miss Assassin.

Compared to that......

Ivus looked up at the crowd with interest.

- He and Lily are actually the seventh and eighth fillers.

Six people had already arrived before they appeared. Judging by the level of enthusiasm of the conversation, it seems that they have been there for a while.

This shows that the home stadium of this ceremony is most likely not in Avalon.

The ninth person who followed Lily was a short, thin old woman with a green brimmed hat.

Her body was rickety and shrunken, and she didn't look like a human. It's like a goblin.

When the six people saw that everyone had arrived, the man sitting in the first place looked over and asked with interest, "...... of the three of you Which is beyond the path? ”

"Before you ask someone a question, you should introduce yourself, right?"

Ivas didn't open his mouth.

But Miss Assassin's honey-sweet, honey-soft voice sounded in a rough and sharp triple resound.

"Indeed, miss, you are right."

The man nodded slightly, very polite.

He stroked his chest with his right hand, bowed slightly, and said, "I am [Ban], an authoritarian path. ”

He looked full of blood and a strong physique. He was in his early thirties, and his voice was loud and clear.

"[Philosopher]."

The man in second place said coldly with his hands on his chest, his attitude in stark contrast to the ban.

He seems to have a cold temperament like winter, with a sense of arrogance on the high. He shouldn't be too young...... Although he couldn't see his face clearly, it seemed that he had lost most of his head. I'm afraid I should be at least forty or fifty years old.

"You can call me [Stranger], and I'm still an apprentice alchemist."

The man in his forties, also replied gently.

"I am [Casting Furnace], dedication to the path, hello."

The fourth one to speak was a dwarf elder sister - or maybe it was an aunt or a grandmother. Because of the general premature aging of dwarves, it is difficult to see the specific age. But she was quite friendly.

"I'm Janet."

Immediately after speaking, it was a woman who appeared to use her real name.

She smiled and said, "Janet Boyman, the way of love...... But I'm not a witch, little sisters? ”

“…… Shade. ”

The sixth speaker lowered his head, as if he was about to fall asleep, and made a hoarse, low voice.

Ivus was silent for a moment, tilting his head slightly.

Immediately after, Chloe's voice came out: "Alai. You can call me Alai. As you can see, I am a transcendent. ”

"Ash."

Lily used her artifice skills to make a low, husky voice.

Because she had only pronounced one word, there was a long silence in the waiting hall.

Finally, the old lady wearing the green hat finally woke up and said in a sharp voice: "I am ...... Hatmaker. The path of beauty. ”

Sure enough, it was a crescent moon ceremony. Ivus thought to himself.

What kind of bull ghost snake god is this......

He glanced over and saw at least three open trumpets.

I can pull myself and Lily in the team...... It shows that the presiding officer of the ceremony judged that if the transcendents were scattered at this time, the intensity and they were no longer of the same class. It's not fair to them.

There are indeed many trumpets that illustrate the crescent moon ceremony.

Ban, philosopher, and stranger, most likely a team, and should all three of them may be trumpets.

The forged furnace is not easy to say, but it should be a dwarven blacksmith to the eye. This support class is easy to find teammates.

One of her teammates was Janet Boiman. The Shade wasn't sure if it was their own.

Ivas knew the man.

Janet is actually an Avalonian.

A well-known goblin scholar - she entered the elven realm once and gained healing powers from the elves...... An ability to make a witch-like ointment. However, this ability is very volatile, sometimes ineffective, and sometimes turns into poison or mischievous potions.

However, in the end, she was not arrested because she was killed by the doctor, but because she was a journalist and made many public statements related to politics - including but not limited to "the royal family has been killed one after another and the royal family is not in a hurry at all, indicating that the queen wants to pass the throne to someone in this way", "Avalon can't actually beat the Star Antimony at all, as long as the Star Antimony Man hits it, it will definitely shatter when touched", "The griffin is useless at all, it is not as good as a motorcycle to benefit the people", "Avalon's alchemy has not actually developed at all, Those technological breakthroughs are useless at all".

Although now it seems that there are a lot of truths in it...... But in fact, she didn't have any evidence, it was pure blind guessing.

And she also writes reports that are certainly not the truth.

For example, she has repeatedly claimed that Sherlock Hermes became a detective because he set up those cases. For some reason, she is very hostile to Sherlock and has publicly criticized him several times.

But then she suffers because of her talking—she was caught pedaling on a treadmill for six months, and when she came out, she ran to Star Antimony.

If these six people are all Star Antimony people, then it can explain why the first thing they say when they open their mouths is to ask directly who among us is the transcendent.

The Yin Soul is mostly the Dusk Path, and the Stranger is the Alchemist. These three paths on the Star Antimony side occupy the absolute mainstream, just like the authority and dedication on Avalon's side. It is unlikely that a fill-in will be made-up.

If there were no transcendents among the three of them, it would mean that there must be a lie among the rest of the people - and because of this, Iwass was able to confirm that the six were not on the same team at least.

The Crescent Moon Ritual can win a maximum of three people, and defeat is easy to pay. So at most, it can only be a team of three people.

These six people are going to be divided into two or three teams, but they are all in Star Antimony. That's why the ritual will catch himself, Lily, and the "hatter" who is most likely a goblin to fill the position.

- After leaving Avalon's radiation range, even the percentage of interracial races has increased.

Ivus probed for a moment, reaching out and pressing it on the armrest. Shadows obscured Ivus's movements, and cards emerged from his palms.

[Shadow Blade], [Shadow Cloak], [Earthbound Spirit].

- Sure enough, the Flame Butterfly cannot be summoned.

It's just that I don't know if the card's can't be used, or if the Flame Butterfly that has been assigned to the dedication path can't be used.

This one is easy, too. After the little butterfly also reaches the fifth energy level, Ivas can draw her strength to make some weaker cards at that time.

Just wait for the next time the crescent moon ritual advances, and see if these cards drawn from the little butterfly can be used.

After everyone had finished introducing themselves, the bloody waiting room suddenly heard the pleasant sound of a music box.

The brass dancer in the middle flapped its wings slightly, and danced to the sound of light music.

The dance immediately caught everyone's attention, and everyone was addicted to it. Just watching this dance makes me feel a sense of spiritual healing.

Her dancing became more intense and frenzied. At last she opened her eyes, and they were as beautiful as the most beautiful emeralds.

Eventually, her dancing calmed down. After the dance, she closed her eyes again and returned to her original state, not moving.

"I'm Thepsicore."

Her ethereal voice rang out in everyone's hearts: "The muse of the twin mirrors." ”

Other than that, she didn't say a word.

[This time, there are seven advanced people who have multiple paths, but please note: in the advanced ceremony, only advanced path abilities and transcendent items corresponding to the paths that you have made yourself are allowed to use]

[The time limit for this ceremony is 16 hours, and the ratio to reality is 8 to 1]

[The dream of this ceremony is constructed by 'Amber', and the script and bonus rules are in charge of the 'Twin Mirror']

Immediately afterward, Thepsicore paused. Singing softly as if telling a story:

[1580, ...... of the Herasr Empire]

Update complete!

Ah continued from the previous chapter, it's been three days since I exhaled hot air through my nose, and I haven't been able to get better after taking ibuprofen for two days. Every night when I go to bed, I feel very hot, a little cold, and sweating crazy, but after getting up, the temperature measurement is normal, a very standard 36.5, absolutely.

After getting up today, I drank some antiviral oral liquid, and the problem of dry throat was basically gone, and I changed my cough, but the cough was not bad. The nasal discharge also began to increase, the nasal congestion was reduced, and most importantly, although fatigue, there was no headache or fever...... What a wicked ......

I don't want to go to the hospital because I don't have a headache, and I always feel that it would be worse if I went to the hospital and was infected by someone else.

But if I don't get up well tomorrow, I'll have to go to the hospital tomorrow afternoon, and on the thirtieth, the operating officer can can will come to play with the cat, and I have to stand up and not fall down-
