The red moon returns

Chapter 522 Purification

There is no such thing as simple in the mysterious world of wonders.

Lynch finally understood this truth.

Ever since he got the item, he had always thought that the conditions for the Miracle Light's containment were too simple, and the water in the bottle would not disappear. Even if he was worried, he could just check it every day and remember to refill it. It was not difficult at all. Relatively speaking, he was too lucky to have come into contact with such a gentle advent-level item, which made him feel that it was not worthy of its name.

Inspiration will not lie, and neither will the memories of strange objects. The containment conditions are really that simple, and the difficulty is no higher than that of the original Cthugha ring.

Not only him, but everyone who heard his retelling had the same thought and breathed a sigh of relief.

However, everything was just an illusion. After all, no one had ever really come into contact with an advent-level wonder. Such a ferocious thing that could destroy the world often only existed in legends. Therefore, no one expected that under the seemingly gentle and harmless appearance, there was a terrifying threat that could destroy everything.

Hearing thunder in the silence, the huge contrast has stunned Lynch. After several seconds, he realized that he almost became the sinner who destroyed the world.

If Natalie had not realized this problem in a flash of inspiration, in a few hours, when the clock struck twelve, the plague in her memories would have broken out in the real world, and everything would have been destroyed.

No, that's not right.

I was too careless. When I was wandering around with it last night, I was actually carrying a nuclear bomb. When the clock struck twelve, I was speaking at the press conference, not realizing how lucky the minute that had passed was. If the plague had been more serious, it would have contaminated the clean water in the strange object, and the consequences would have been disastrous.

Lynch's forehead was already covered with cold sweat, and he felt deeply regretful for his previous contempt and arrogance. As expected, what Chairman Ole said was absolutely right. People with improper attitudes will eventually suffer the consequences of their own actions, without exception.

"Phew, that was a close call." Lin Qi sighed and said solemnly, "I underestimated the danger of rare objects. I was lucky this time and didn't bring about an unmanageable consequence. I won't be so lucky next time. I will remember this lesson, and no matter what happens in the future, I will never underestimate any rare object again."

As he said this, he squeezed Natalie's hand. If it weren't for the girl's careful consideration, this time she would have really failed. Although with Chairman Ole around, a professional like him would not likely ignore such an obvious hidden danger, it was inevitable that he would be embarrassed.

"That's right, this is the scary thing about high-risk items." As expected, the chairman was the only person here who looked calm. He explained slowly, "It's not that their containment conditions are so harsh. On the contrary, their containment conditions are often the simplest, but also the easiest to get out of control. For example, the Gate of Illusion and Reality that was destroyed before, as long as it is not used, it will not get out of control. If it is used, it is fine as long as you control your desires, but how many people can control their desires? This thing is the same. The seemingly simple containment conditions are actually all traps. If you are not careful, there will be no chance to turn back."

So you wanted to scare everyone on purpose.

The five people present all smiled bitterly, but they had to express their deep gratitude for the lesson he had taught them. Even Trilles, who was so old, stood up and bowed to the chairman, asking for advice: "It seems that this cannot be solved by washing with clean water. There must be some special treatment method, otherwise this strange object will have no meaning at all."

As he spoke, he gestured in Lynch's direction. He had already started his second attempt and asked Miss Diana for a few cans of clean water. He was working hard to rinse the bottles.

After repeating it several times, everyone realized that flushing does have an effect, but not much.

To be precise, the purifying effect of flushing is quickly overwhelmed by the pollution caused by the environment, so it will return to its original filthiness just a moment after the effect is achieved.

This is a bit troublesome. With the pollution speed visible to the naked eye, it is still unknown whether external force can wash faster than pollution. Even if it can, it is already past seven in the afternoon, and there are only more than four hours left until midnight. Even if someone is hired to wash continuously, it may not be in time. "In fact, I don't know the specific method, but from the existing factors, the key lies in one word, pollution." The chairman twisted his beard calmly, picked up a bottle of dirty water and shook it, like giving a lecture to students, "It is some special signal in the environment that polluted the mysterious filth inside the strange object, causing the strange object to change its form. Then the countermeasure is another word opposite to pollution. What is it?"

"Uh...purification?"

Ms. Nightingale nodded thoughtfully and raised her hand to the small medicine box on the table. A puff of mist instantly enveloped the medicine box. Even without touching it directly, one could feel a cool and refreshing breath coming towards her.

[Power: Purification, Ability: Purifying Rain]

stab.

As if a few drops of water were dropped into hot oil, a clear explosion sounded around the medicine box. The old woman frowned and her body swayed slightly. Fortunately, Miss Diana supported her in time and she did not fall off the chair.

Looking at the bottle in his hand again, Lynch discovered that although the bottle had not entered the range of the purifying rain, the turbidity inside had become clearer. It seemed that purification was indeed the correct answer, but looking at the purification effect and Ms. Nightingale's reaction...

"This effect is not right." The chairman frowned for the first time and muttered to himself, "The conflict is too strong and the effect is not obvious. This is not the reaction of normal purification. There should be other methods."

"Hiss, I understand."

Lin Qi finally understood that all the answers had been shown in his memories, but he just hadn't understood them. With a deep sigh, he recited in a low voice:

"Lord, please let the fire wash my filthy body and purify my unclean soul. I am willing to offer everything I have, body, life, will, soul, I

May everything I have turn into dry wood, making the blazing fire burn more vigorously, and purifying the filthy plague with the flames. "

Ms. Nightingale was stunned: "This is..."

"The answer comes from the past." Lynch said softly, "Flame is the correct way to purify it."

huh~~
The next moment, Lynch's body turned into a human-shaped ball of fire and rushed straight towards the medicine box on the table.

[Embrace of Fire, a gift from Cthugha, the Fiery Lady]

Under the scorching flames, the other five people retreated helplessly, and stopped only when they were almost against the wall, but their eyes were still fixed on the dancing flames.

The high temperature caused the wooden table to instantly merge with the flames. A moment later, the wooden table had turned into ashes, leaving only a small medicine box floating in the flames, ignoring the gravity.
