Chapter 11: The Summoning Ritual on the Night of the Full Moon

When Strong learned of the young man's intentions, he was clearly not satisfied with just selling a little lion's skin, and was enthusiastic about selling it.

"There are a lot of things that are needed for the cultivation of supernatural powers, and these things are rarely sold in the ordinary market, so ...... If you need other magic artifacts, I can rent them here at an affordable price. ”

Then open a secret door in the house, pick up a lit candle next to it, and send out an invitation.

"Please come in. ”

Tang Ning stroked his chest, the only security guarantee, thinking about whether to enter.

The day before yesterday and Kroos, their experience was not very good, and it is very likely that they will do it again if they rush into a closed and unfamiliar territory.

But now there is a real shortage of those magic artifacts, and if there are really any, refusing to miss this great opportunity.

After much thought, he made a decision.

"This is a good opportunity, it's okay to take risks, not to mention a gun to defend yourself, and I am an agent of the Investigation Bureau, and this identity will also make people with bad intentions fearful. ”

After comforting himself, he remained vigilant and stepped into the secret door.

......

There are a lot of cabinets in the secret door, and there are many strange-shaped utensils on the cabinets, which can only be used in places such as supernatural ceremonies.

Holding a candle, Strong walks by the young man to provide light, incidentally acting as a salesman.

"Because I hunt and sell some special animal meat or skins, plus my membership in the Magic Society, most of the members of the Magic Association who want a little extra income will temporarily store their unused, or extra valuable things, here for me to rent, I take 30% of the income, and they take 70%, you know, now that the economy is in a depression, the people of the Magic Association have to find ways to improve their lives, and they also need a lot of financial support to research new magic topics. ”

This argument is very convincing in the context of the economic depression that everyone is complaining about.

Walking around those shelves and seeing the glass triangular prism, Tang Ning was inexplicably excited, so he picked it up and asked.

"How do you rent this thing?"

Strong handed the illuminated candle to the young man, took the prism and looked at the small note pasted on it.

"It's something that belongs to Doug Madison, who usually rents things cheaply, and only needs one subi to pay for within two days. ”

The price is indeed fair enough, renting three is just the money for three breakfasts.

After buying a lot of things, Tang Ning's purse was also a little tight, so he took out three subi and put them down.

Strong immediately picked up the three glass prisms and wrapped them.

"I remember to be back in two days. ”

......

After buying the lion skin, Downing went all the way to the local tailor shop to make the lion skin into a simple belt, and bought some candles, black toner, incense, and a little sesame oil.

When I returned to the cozy hut, I couldn't suppress my excitement, so I immediately took out all the materials I had collected before, and then used scissors to cut the sheepskin into 80 cm long and wide squares against the materials I had copied from the "Third Key".

He took out the strange set of cards from his bosom, laid out the six cards he had selected, and then used a knife to engrave the names of the six cards on the lionskin belt.

At present, the only difficulty in comparison is that the pentagram pendant should be made of pure gold or sterling silver.

With the current economic strength, it is simply not affordable.

After hesitating for a long time, he simply pierced the six cards and tied them to the rope.

"I hope it helps. ”

Muttered secretly, looking at what was prepared in front of him.

"All the materials were complete and ready to go. ”

The requirement for the location of the ceremony is that it is dark and remote on the night of the full moon.

It's a full moon night outside.

There were a lot of things, all of which were packed in a sack and went out.

The place of the ceremony had already been observed the day before yesterday when he was visiting everywhere because of the case, and he trotted along the dark streets all the way.

About twenty minutes later we were at the foot of a small hill outside the town.

Put your things down and look up at the bright moon in the sky.

"Whether the moon is so round in my hometown has never been carefully seen before. ”

He whispered a silent word, and turned back to carve a magic circle on the flat ground.

There was no measuring tool, so I roughly measured it with my feet, then drew it on the ground with a knife, and wrote the names of the six cards around it.

The magic circle is complete.

Continue to measure with your feet, about two feet, and draw a triangle with the vertices pointing in the direction of the moon in the sky.

After finishing it, I walked to the stream on the side of the hill.

The weather was chilly at night this season, so I gritted my teeth and took off my clothes and walked in.

When the skin touches the stream, the chill is biting.

Shivering, he gritted his teeth and stood in completely, washing his body with cold water.

Five minutes later, he came out, hurriedly put on his clothes, buckled his lionskin belt, put on a crown that resembled a girl's headband, and crouched on the ground with his teeth chattering.

"I knew I was taking a shower at home. ”

Wait for the warmth to flow all over your body, get up and return to the magic circle, take out the incense and light it, and purify the ritual site.

The sheepskin is laid flat on the ground, and the six-pointed star pattern is carefully poured out of the tomb soil.

After confirming that it is correct, I picked up the black toner and corpse blood and mixed the two, which was a little sticky and a little uncomfortable with the smell of blood.

Pinch your nose and pour the mixed viscous liquid into the grave trail of the parchment hexagram.

Six candles are lit and then placed on the six corners of the six-pointed star pattern on the sheepskin, and the candlelight flickers.

Take out the three triangular prisms, measure the distance of fifteen centimeters with your foot, and place them in the space between the two of the six candles.

Finally, fill the stream with a long-necked copper bottle of water, take it back and place it in the middle of the six-pointed star.

It should be close to the wee hours of the morning at this moment.

"I hope that the card will be useful instead of the pentagram pendant on the chest. ”

Thinking so, Tang Ning held the Orb Scepter in his right hand, faced the copper bottle, and began to recite the incantation silently.

"O Heroic Spirit, in the darkness, under the full moon, I sincerely praise your greatness, may I proclaim your name with my sincerest praise, may I call upon your Spirit with my sincerity, please come to this dark place on this full moon night, may my soul be with you forever, please listen to my call, come to the world, listen to my praise, come to the world, listen to my prayers, come to the world. ”

Repeated several times, secretly opening his eyes to see.

"There's no movement, can't it? Try again......"

Settle your mind and continue to repeat the mantra above.

After repeating it about six times, there was an abnormal ringing in my ears.

A miserable cry came from beneath his feet, and a howl of pain echoed in his ears, as if he were in hell at the moment.

Slowly opening his eyes, the situation in front of him made Tang Ning unable to calm down.

The earth beneath his feet turned into an endless sea of fire, and his twisted body loomed in the sea of fire, and at this moment he was floating above the sea of fire, thick smoke billowing out, but his body could not feel any burning sensation.

"Hellfire ......"

This was the first thing that came to his mind......

Immediately after that, there was a terrifying laugh in the flames, accompanied by a shocking sound.
