Don't call me evil god

Chapter 505 [Summoning Ceremony]

When the trap door was opened, the familiar strong smell of sulfur immediately hit me.

"My lord, this is for you."

The dwarf clerk did not go into the basement with Lena, he just took out five skulls from the drawer of the counter.

Judging from its size and shape, it should be made from a human skull.

The empty eye sockets of the skull were emitting a faint gray-purple light.

"Ok?"

Reina made a short nasal sound to express her doubt.

She didn't know what it was used for.

The dwarf clerk explained attentively:

"Once you're down there, hold it in your hand and wait a moment. The [Summoning Ceremony] will begin soon."

Reina raised her eyebrows and took the skull calmly.

It seemed that she would soon find out how the dwarf she had been following disappeared out of thin air in the basement.

Reina could guess something from the name "Summoning Ritual".

She could rule out the possibility that he really intended to summon some evil god to descend here.

Reina had already explored the basement under the trapdoor. There was not even an altar there. The environment and layout did not look like they could be used for a ceremony.

Although it is called a secret room, there is actually nothing special about it. It might just be the original warehouse of the tapestry shop that has been modified.

The most valuable clues in that place should be the devil's magic circle on the ground and the cursed book.

"If it's not to summon the evil god, then what is the so-called [Summoning Ritual] used for?"

"Open the door and go down."

Reyna motioned towards Brandon.

Although she had obtained enough important information, Reina still wanted more.

So the character setting cannot collapse.

Now is not the time to fall out.

Brandon obediently cooperated with Reina and walked forward to open the trapdoor.

Gail, Miranda and Pete went down one by one.

Brandon was fourth and Rena was last.

……

The basement still looks familiar.

This was not the first time Lena came here, so she had no interest in exploring. She just did as the dwarf said and held the skull in her hand.

The others looked at the slightly complicated magic circle on the ground with curiosity.

Brandon walked to the shelf and tried flipping through the cursed book twice.

His experience was exactly the same as Lena's.

First, I was under tremendous pressure, and my soul seemed to be sucked away by an invisible vortex.

However, as long as you pray to Nowen once in time during this process, even if you just call his name, these bad feelings will suddenly disappear.

Then Brandon was also able to read the cursed book without any pressure.

Brandon tried to read it carefully.

But after taking a look at it twice, he tactfully put the book down.

He raised his hand and rubbed his head.

"What's wrong?" Gail noticed Brandon's actions.

Brandon said very sincerely:

"The magic circle is so confusing. I can't stand it..."

Gale rolled his eyes speechlessly. Brandon was a rare member of the Church of Knowledge.

As for his professional path, he firmly chose the path of a warrior. As for other paths, especially those like mages and priests where magic and divine arts can also play a certain role in daily life, Brandon did not even learn the first-level entry-level abilities.

On the one hand, those who purely practice the way of rage as a warrior can also reach the level of legend.

After being blessed with rage, a warrior can gain extremely powerful strength with just his pure physical body. As long as he can exert the power of the enhanced body, his strength is actually not much weaker than magic and divine arts.

Brandon, on the other hand, hated having to carry things around.

The magic casting method that Nowen gave to his believers could bypass the goddess of magic and cast spells directly through the magic net.

But as a price, believers have to memorize the precise and complex spell models one by one.

The same is true of the demonic spells used by warlocks.

Whether relying on a magic circle or casting a spell directly, spells cannot be cast relying solely on spells and casting materials. Drawing a model circuit for the spell is an essential step.

Bran couldn't remember.

Circles, triangles, squares, points, lines, surfaces, and multi-layered three-dimensional structures are too complicated.

For Brandon, it is more suitable for him to arouse anger and then go up and chop people based on his combat intuition and instinct.

……

The few of them had not been in the secret room for long when Lena was the first to feel that the skull in her hand began to change!
This specially carved and adjusted skull seemed to come alive, trembling slightly in Lena's hands.

The empty light in the eye sockets also changed from gray-purple to blue-purple with black.

I haven't had time to continue experiencing this feeling.

Everything in front of my eyes suddenly went dark!
Lena could feel an extremely strong pulling and squeezing sensation coming from all directions of her body!

She felt like she had fallen into a thick sponge and was being constantly kneaded and compressed!
All I could hear in my ears was a buzzing sound, and the sounds of Gail and Brandon's jokes and conversation had disappeared.

Reina tried to open her mouth and make some sound, but she failed.

The intense squeeze made it impossible for her to open her mouth and utter a single word.

To make matters worse, Reina found that she couldn't breathe in this state!

It was as if even the surrounding environment had been completely compressed, and not even a trace of air could flow in.

Reina tried to breathe in through her nose, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get anything.

Although this terrible process probably lasted less than 3 seconds.

But for Lena, she really felt like a sponge that was forcibly squeezed into a small ball. If it continued, her body might be completely squeezed and compressed.

Fortunately, when Reina regained her vision and her pupils refocused, the previous bad feelings completely disappeared.

"A new fellow traveler! Welcome to the realm of truth of the world!"

A strange voice sounded in my ears.

It was a Dwarven language, and the voice was a little sharp, obviously the voice of a female dwarf.

Reina was shocked.

Where has she been?!
The surrounding environment suddenly changed drastically without her noticing!
This is no longer the underground secret room decorated with carpets, but a place that seems to have nothing to do with dwarves in style.

Reina lowered her head and coughed twice, taking the opportunity to adjust her expression.

The situation and circumstances were very unclear, so it was best to continue to maintain my identity as a warlock and figure out where I was.

"What am I doing..." Lena looked at the female dwarf who had just spoken not far in front of her with a slightly hesitant tone.

Too many words are wrong.

She wanted to use this ambiguous way of asking questions that could be understood from all angles to find out as much information as possible.

The other party responded calmly, as if he had anticipated Reina's question.

"Thank you for the gift of the supreme truth."

"The [Summoning Ritual] brought you here."
