"Ceremonial punishment tends to eliminate."

Under everyone's gaze, Ivas put one hand under the Book of Law and said slowly, "Just like the priest's punishment of the undead, it is also called 'dispersal'. The original meaning of the word was banishment, because it was believed that the corpse was impure and that it was inherently possible to give birth to the dead, and that killing a sinner would not completely end this evil – it would have to be gone forever. ”

The Book of Law floated above the palm of Aihuas's hand, and Aihuas's other hand was aimed at the unfolded page, on which an extremely complex circle of magic floated on its own.

The rituals stored in it allow Ivas not to carve a complex ritual array on the ground, but to provide it himself. And it also provides the "first" ceremony...... In other words, Ivas did not need materials every time he performed the rituals recorded in the first Book of Law.

So far, Iwass has received a total of five rituals.

He decided to use one of them to execute Wolfram and eradicate the hidden danger once and for all.

"So, I'm going to get rid of you completely, Wolfram."

Ivus declared, "And you yourself will agree." ”

Wolfram's face flushed with gravity, his silent pupils filled with sarcasm.

"Don't worry," Ivus said slowly, "Listen to me—

"—Do you believe in your will and courage?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Merlin.

Looking at Merlin, who was full of interest, Ivas knew that Merlin already knew which ritual it was.

So Ivas directly declared: "This is a ritual designed by Wei Zhe himself, and he has left a last way for mortals who cannot have wisdom, but still want to have it." So that those who have nothing but courage can also gain wisdom.

"I will pierce the blind eye in the eye, cut off your right hand, and pierce your heart. Sacrifice your whole life and soul to your future self; You give to you the next, you give the next second to you the next - this sacrifice is based on the power of the Celestial Division, and it is infinitely circular. You're a great wizard yourself, and you should be able to read this ritual.

"You will see all the mysteries of the world—all the knowledge, all the secrets, will come into your mind. The longer you can persevere, the more wisdom you will receive.

"If you can hold on for nine days and nine nights, then you will have all the truth of the world. Directly become the apostle of Wei Zhe and get the power of the Heavenly Division. And if you don't last that time, your soul will be wiped out under the pressure of the ritual cycle. This is the knowledge that the Book of Dharma has given me. ”

Ivus looked at Wolfram and said calmly, "You heard me, Merlin is on our side. Under his watch, you can't be resurrected or reincarnated by your previous design—of course, you can accept death and see if Kuma-tenji will accept you.

"You can also choose to be tested. Merlin will tell you if this trial is real. ”

"It's true."

Hearing that there was something about him, Merlin leaned over and said solemnly, "I swear in the name of Wei Zhe that this ceremony is true. And Ivas did not miss a single thing—there were even people who had passed this ritual and received all the truths of the world and became the apostles of the great sage. And he's a giant himself...... It is also the apostle that the giants of the Northland believe in today. ”

Merlin was right.

The apostle's name was "Odin."

Because he was the only apostle who passed the trials of Wei Zhe and received the truth of the world, he was as silent as Wei Zhe and was one eye like Wei Zhe. Because of this, he usually exists as a shadow of Wei Zhe, and some people confuse his existence with legend.

"The giants of the Northlands have been looking for this ritual, but they have never found it. And it's in my hands right now. ”

Evas declared, "I will grant you the trials of Odin.

"If you agree, blink twice; If you don't agree, just wink. ”

Wolfram was silent for a moment, then blinked. But after only a slight pause, he blinked again.

- Ivus knew that he would not refuse.

The reason is simple.

Because Wolfram is old, and he has achieved nothing.

The High Heavens despise deserters and captives, and encourage the courage to fight to the death. And he has been imprisoned since he was a teenager and did not escape from prison until decades ago. He has done nothing in his life other than being imprisoned. In order to gain the power to escape from prison, he even turned his profession into an authoritarian bondage.

And after escaping, he was tinkering with the noble red association, and in the end it didn't lead to anything.

In the original worldline, the Noble Red has been causing trouble for Avalon, and even destroying Avalon outright - although it was a conspiracy of the Star Antimony, the Noble Red was also an important pawn. If it was based on the original purpose of "pleasing Xiong Tianji" and "taking revenge on the Avalons", in fact, the noble red has already achieved a basic victory.

- At least Wolfram himself got the victory.

But because of Ivus's interference, Noble Red was like a clown.

They have done nothing, and now they are about to be wiped out completely. And even if Wolfram could escape, he probably wouldn't have time to reorganize a new Noble Red.

If you can obtain the Book of Law or the Divine Entity, it can be said to be a great achievement.

But for now......

Ivas could see Wolfram's fear just by looking him in the eye.

He was afraid that he would be rejected by Xiong Tianji. He feared that he would become a useless, powerless wanderer.

Even if he knew it was a trap, he would never give up again.

— or rather.

Just because Ivas made this proposal in front of him, which was "a risk of death but would be a huge benefit if it succeeded", it was absolutely impossible for him to refuse it again.

Because if he refuses at this time, it is tantamount to choosing cowardice.

In that case, Xiong Tianji would still be disappointed in his soul.

And even if he passed the trial, he would be personally restrained by Wei Zhe because he knew too many things.

Whatever the outcome, the outcome had already been determined by the time Eivers made this suggestion.

Merlin looked at Ivus and couldn't help but gasp.

This kid ...... It's really a bit ruthless.

"Hehehe......"

Ivus let out an indecipherable laugh and reached out and pressed his hand to the Book of Law. The ceremonial array shone with an even brighter purple light.

"Then give you a trial."

He whispered, purple brilliance turning blue.

The power of the ritual reduced the giant prince's right eye and arm to nothingness - as Ivas had originally stated, the ritual "removed" them as a sacrifice.

"—I befriend Wei Zhe, the God of the four holy numbers, the God of seeing the truth, the God of silence!"

At this moment, Evas's right hand grabbed the back of Sherlock's neck who had been standing beside him, and chanted in a loud voice: "I preside over the trial of Odin!" ”

The power of the Book of Dharma omits all the complicated steps.

A storm howled around Aihuas.

His mana poured out so quickly that even the mana in Sherlock's body was constantly drained by the ritual.

In the next moment, the sky began to become gloomy.

The thunderclouds that had just dispersed were dense again, and the wind was fierce.

A blue one-eyed light up in the dark clouds.

It looked at Ivas and Sherlock, and then at Merlin, who was standing in the distance. Finally, he turned his gaze to the upside-down giant.

And the next moment, a thunderbolt fell!

The dark blue thunder pierced the heart of the Giant Prince like a spear!

The giant prince's eyes widened suddenly.

The veins on his face burst out, and countless dark blue runes swam on the surface of his body. The depths of his pupils overflowed with an infinite amount of deep blue radiance.

He shuddered violently, struggled violently—even with his mouth gagged, the scream that bordered on rage clogged in his throat and emanated from his nostrils.

His skin turned red and then purple in an instant. A crackling blue light swam around him like lightning—it was Willis transmitting to him all the mysteries he knew.

But this state of affairs only lasted for two short minutes.

Two minutes later, the Giant Prince seemed to have somehow broken his balance—his body began to bulge unusually like the joints of a gout patient. At first, there were one or two places, and then there were dense bulges all over the body.

"It's over."

Merlin sighed: "What a disappointment...... I thought I could at least hold on until tomorrow.

"The self-sacrifice of seeking wisdom is resisting the injection of truth into one's brain...... It's ridiculous. Isn't this infinite cycle of rituals broken by the cycle? Self-made clever ......"

As soon as he finished speaking, the giant prince swelled like a balloon.

Then, the azure spear crackled and vanished.

And the bulging lump began to collapse and shrink inward.

Eventually, it completely dissolves into nothingness.

"What a pity."

The corners of Aihuasi's mouth rose slightly: "It's really ...... As expected. ”

The clouds dissipated.

In the end, the eyes above the sky and in the dark clouds even glared at Merlin fiercely, causing Merlin to laugh and quickly take off his hat and salute the sky.

And in Ivus's vision, there is an unprecedented feast-

I saw that the sky was full of white points of light.

They rushed towards Ivus like a river, submerging into his body. There were so many experiences that poured in one breath this time that even Ivas directly felt a feeling of "fullness".

[Kill the fifth-level transcendent and gain 2000 free experience]

In this way, Eivers can be sure that Wolfram is indeed dead.

He had even twice as much experience as he would normally deserve - and that should be evidence of his complete demise.

Eivas even saw a few scattered points of light dissipate. There are probably about one-seventh of them, which is not a lot, but it still makes Ivus feel very sorry.

That's probably because I can only absorb so much free experience in one breath.

It's just that......

Ivus looked at Merlin.

He wanted to confirm one thing.

And Merlin, who became very well-behaved after being glared at by the boss, was like a student who immediately regained his liveliness after walking out of the head teacher's office with his head down, and turned his hat with one hand and leaned over and asked with interest: "And then?" Are you going to perform a ritual to confirm your 'transcendence' and thus gain strength? ”

- Merlin didn't see the light in Ivus's eyes at all.

I see.

Ivus now has the bottom in his heart.

It seems that even the apostles of the pillar god can't see the fact that they can get "experience points".

"No," Ivas laughed, "I've got it." ”

"Oh, yes."

It seems that he doesn't want to perform in front of himself, Merlin thought to himself. It makes sense.

He glanced at the dim yellow amber villages around him, and replied casually, "In that case, then I'll leave."

"You don't have to worry about this situation now - when you get up tomorrow morning, it'll all be back to the way it was. A village frozen by Amber's own hands will not be destroyed for such a simple reason. ”

Merlin chuckled and buckled up his mage hat.

"Mr. Merlin! Do you know the contract here? ”

Seeing that Merlin seemed to be leaving, Haina finally couldn't help but ask, "What kind of contract did the ancestors of Eagle Cape Village sign...... Why is this happening? ”

"That's not what you should know by now, Miss Hayna."

Merlin said gently, "I'll tell you when the time is right."

"—because I have come to witness the contract of beheading the people of the valley."

After he finished speaking, he nodded slightly at Ivus, and disappeared in place in a burst of blue streamer.

Update complete!

Although it's a little late, it's an update of more than 6,000 words!

The plot of Eagle Cape Village is over, and then it's time to go back to Glass Island to provoke!
