Chapter 235: Preparations for the Orthodox Church

"But what is the cost of using it?"

Shad was not carried away by the description of the necklace's function, even though it was equivalent to an extremely weakened version of the "divine afterglow state".

The great witch replied:

"To use the necklace, you must bear the curse of the witch, and it is an enlarged version of the curse of the witch. During the wearing period, any man who touches your skin will have life-threatening allergic symptoms and uncontrollable headaches. Of course, This curse has no effect on the witch itself. Therefore, you'd better wear it when you use it, and don't touch the silver-eyed person directly."

"Only this? It doesn't seem very dangerous."

She smiled at Xia De:

"Of course it's more than that. The witch's resentment and curse are attached to this necklace itself. If the curse breaks out, the user's Ring Warlock level will directly increase by 12 rings, and then he will lose his mind and attack any target until he dies. But don't worry, this effect is recognized by the council. Temporarily suppressed, at least you will have no problem using it."

"Oh, that's really good...Miss Galina, please allow me to express my thanks."

"You don't need to thank you, I just lent it to you anyway. However, this is my personal jewelry, I can lend it to you, but you can't let anyone else use it, do you understand?"

Xia De nodded, he understands this request very well, after all, it is personal jewelry:

"No problem, I'll use it myself."

So Miss Galina asked again:

"Why don't you try the specific effect? ​​Male servants in the manor are not allowed to enter the second floor, so you don't have to worry about causing a curse."

Xia De nodded, carefully trying to put the necklace around his neck. But since he had never worn this kind of thing before, he tried several times without success. In the end, the maid helped him fasten the buckle on the back of his neck.

After thanking him a little embarrassedly, Xia De looked up at the sky.

The fluttering snowflakes fell from the sky, and Miss Galina reached out to catch them in surprise.

Xia De glanced at her to make sure that the other party didn't see the clue, and then continued to run the fan lock.

It's not that they are being careless, but they want to try to see if the secret of the mytho will be seen by the other party. If it is discovered, just explain the matter directly. Miss Galina knows this secret is fine; if the other party can't see through, Xia De will understand that the thaumaturgy fan lock is in an unfinished state and will not be easily discovered.

As the fan lock continued to operate, the light in the room suddenly dimmed, and the wind blew snowflakes flying in the sky. All three looked up at the ceiling, but there was actually a night sky with a silver moon hanging high.

It's just that this scene lasted only three seconds before it ended, Xia De's face turned pale and ended the thaumaturgy effect. The effect of wearing the necklace is equivalent to about two-thirds of the improvement after ringing the [Judger's Holy Bell]. The latter directly allowed him to call out Match Girl, but the former could only change the environment on a large scale.

"Pretty good, very good."

He said, reaching out to take off the necklace. But this time it still failed, so the maid held back a smile and reached out to help again.

"As long as you are satisfied, you can take this necklace away and return it to me after the event is over. Don't worry about being recognized by others. I have never worn this necklace when I acted as the Witch Council. Its promotion The effect on high-level ring warlocks is not obvious."

Mademoiselle Galina said this, and then suddenly said:

"Oh, detective, don't...Tifa, get the jewelry box from the bedroom."

Xia De stopped putting the necklace directly into his pocket, and then realized that it seemed a bit wrong to put someone else's personal jewelry directly into his pocket.

The maid lady left the room, and Xia De mentioned the topic about the evil **** just now:

"Miss Galina, there is one more thing that must be confirmed. Are you sure that the coming of the evil **** [Lord of the Blood Feast] will be organized by the church? I don't want to come out from the underground ruins with my companions and see . ...and the whole of Tobeysk becomes part of the dining table."

What happened at the Lake View Manor left a deep impression on Xia De.

"I can't guarantee you 100%, but there should be no accidents this time."

The Duchess said, seeing that Xia De was still worried, she continued to explain:

"The Orthodox Church has been dealing with similar things since its establishment. Since it was recorded in the middle and late stages of the Fifth Era to the current Sixth Era in 1853, the mistake of letting evil gods descend under the supervision of the church has only happened twice. Although the losses in those two times were indeed heavy, I had to call the righteous **** to come to solve it... I also checked the information within the council, and the ceremony for the [Lord of the Blood Feast] to descend in the form of a saint, the human container and the grand The **** banquet is a necessary condition. Now the church is sure to control Mr. Lawrence in the banquet, and the grand banquet will be destroyed by the church in time, so it is impossible to succeed no matter what."

"But Mr. Lawrence is just a container prepared by [Blood of Mercury]. What if those cultists have second-hand preparations?"

Shad was still worried.

"Then the church has other options."

The great witch has great confidence in the church.

"But even if the banquet is prevented, the concept of 'banquet' in the ceremony does not necessarily refer to the real banquet. What if they find other ways to hold the ceremony?"

"In that case, they would have to have an impact throughout the city to produce an effect equivalent to the 'Blood Banquet', but this is almost impossible."

Miss Galina replied, seeing that Xia De was still worried, she knew that the incident at Lakeview Manor had left a deep impression on him.

The voice suddenly lowered:

"The church has the final insurance, they have prepared an unknowable (level 0) relic."

Xia De raised his head and looked at the witch in surprise, who nodded:

"This matter is absolutely not allowed to be told to anyone else, I didn't even tell Tifa. That's right, there is now a level 0 relic in the Tobesk area. The relic is specially designed to deal with the appearance of the saint. The Warlock of the Thirteen Rings "Sunshine Great Sword" personally brought it and took care of it. Mortals can't fight against gods, but gods can fight against gods. It was left behind by an old **** in the past when he left. The weapon under the hood, paying a heavy sacrifice, can temporarily confine the gods in the form of saints to a certain area, so as to buy time for the Orthodox Church to call for the help of the Orthodox Gods. The Orthodox Church has never lacked the spirit of sacrifice So detective, what you need to consider is the banquet and your own actions, preventing the evil **** from descending is the job of the Orthodox Church."

"What exactly is that unknowable relic?"

Shad asked.

"I don't know either. This is a secret of the church. I can know whether this thing is in Tobesk or the information obtained by the parliament."

She sighed and looked towards the door:

"Since Tifa hasn't returned yet, let me tell you one more thing... Actually, I can't say anything. This matter is more secretive and important than a level 0 relic. In short..."

Miss Galina looked at Xia De in embarrassment, and said softly after a long time:

"Anyway, if you come across a strange church sorceress recently, please let me know."
