Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery.

Chapter 207 Borrowing Your Head

Bernadette and Odysseus discussed the plan seriously for a while, and only after making sure there were no major loopholes did Bernadette cancel the private communication space.

At this moment, the voice of the Hades Emperor rang out again in their ears. However, this time, his voice was a little stern: "You were so close to the magic circle just now, why didn't you destroy it?"

Odysseus was stunned for a moment. In order not to alert the enemy, he could only continue to calm the "King of Hell": "There is a demigod from the Church of the Evernight Goddess next to the magic circle. If I act rashly, I will die."

"You don't have to worry about him. He doesn't dare to take any action now." said the "Underworld Emperor".

"Then I'm relieved." Odysseus lied without hesitation: "I will go to the magic circle in a moment and will definitely destroy it."

The voice said, "Actually, you can come now or leave now."

"No," Odysseus said seriously, "If I take a few steps in the water, I will sink into the river. My personal death is not a big deal, but you will have to continue waiting."

He didn't give the other party a chance to bargain: "Does that 'Chaos Hunter' Celt also know that he needs to destroy the magic circle to release you?"

"Yes."

Odysseus thought to himself: No wonder they didn't doubt it at all when I said there was a magic circle there.

He said, "Those two people are not trustworthy. They clearly knew that destroying the magic circle would free you, yet they didn't even approach it to explore."

In fact, it was because there was a "mysterious queen" guarding there, so they didn't dare to approach.

"They are indeed not as trustworthy as you." It was unclear whether the "King of Hell" really thought so or was just trying to please Odysseus.

Odysseus then asked, "Besides the Witch Cult that supported the Balam Empire, which other families or organizations supported you?"

"The Blood Cult," the Hades replied, "as well as Tolzner and the Moss Ascetic Order. The Redemption Rose also sent an angel, as well as a descendant of Tudor and several angels not recognized by the Six Gods.

"Some of them follow the 'Hunter' path, some follow the 'Destiny' path, and some follow the 'Black Emperor' path."

Odysseus thought about it and realized that Tolzner was the "Bound God" who founded the Rose School.

And that angel on the path of "fate," I wonder if it's the "Snake of Fate" that's currently being "restarted" in Backlund?
But now it seems that the alliance formed by the "Emperor of the Underworld" at that time are all the current evil gods and their evil organizations.

This is also a manifestation of the "winner takes all" principle in the extraordinary world.

Bernadette asked, "Why would the Moss Trappist Order want to join your alliance?"

From the information she collected, it seemed that the "Moss Ascetic Order" did not exist in the "Pale Age", and this organization rarely participated in disputes in the extraordinary world.

The Underworld Emperor said, "Because the Hidden Sage harbors deep hostility towards the God of Craftsmen, to a certain extent, the God of Craftsmen ascended to godhood prematurely due to pressure from the Hidden Sage."

Odysseus nodded slowly. He remembered that the process of the "God of Craftsmen"'s promotion to a god was indeed a bit hasty. It seemed that he was forced to ascend before he had fully digested the magic potion of Sequence 1 "Enlightener".

Therefore, until the Fifth Age, the "Church of the God of Craftsmen" was the weakest among the seven orthodox churches.

More than a hundred years ago, after Russell came to power, the "God of Craftsmen" boarded the express train of the "Industrial Revolution" and changed his name to the "God of Steam and Machinery". His condition improved and he became as powerful as the other six gods.

However, Odysseus did not expect that the "Hidden Sage" would put such great pressure on the "God of Steam and Machinery".

But if you think about it, it makes sense. After all, in the Quaternary Period, the "God of Steam and Machinery" was still a Sequence 1, while the "Hidden Sage" was the only one that was activated, and it is very likely that he also absorbed some of the Sequence 1 characteristics.

Of course, the King of Angels has a considerable advantage when fighting against the Archangel.

Odysseus was about to ask some more questions, but the Hades said, "This time I will take the initiative to cooperate with the power of the seal to allow Fanxing to return earlier.

"Come and destroy the magic circle as soon as possible!"

Odysseus agreed, but thought to himself: I will indeed go there as soon as possible, but I will go to repair the magic circle and try to seal you completely.

When the power of the stars returned, the river receded, and the desert reappeared, Bernadette smiled and said, "This 'Underworld Emperor' is quite persistent. Perhaps due to his mental impairment, he seems to lack wisdom."

Odysseus said: “Perhaps so.

"I guess as long as I get close to the magic circle and reach out to destroy it, He will be able to use me as a medium to completely break free from the seal."

The platform of pea branches and leaves quickly lowered, sending the two people to the ground.

Bernadette nodded: "It's very possible."

When the evil god makes a request, he will definitely not reveal his true purpose. Generally speaking, as long as you do what the evil god orders you to do, you will fall into his trap.

The two men reunited with Celt and Coremond. Odysseus said, "Time is running out. Let's get started quickly, shall we?"

Coremond on the opposite side thought to himself: Why didn't you look anxious at all just now?

According to the previous negotiation, Odysseus came to Celty's side, and Celty took out the two sealed objects on her body and asked Coreymond to give them to Bernadette for temporary safekeeping.

These two sealed items, one corresponds to the Sequence 4 "Fallen Earl" of the "Lawyer" path, and the other corresponds to the Sequence 5 "Traveler" of the "Apprentice" path.

The former is a sealed object temporarily allowed to him by the royal family, and the latter is Celt's personal collection.

When Celt rushed to Capin's villa before, he used this seal to target the "Traveler". Later, when Coremond captured Odysseus, Celt specially lent this seal to him.

Of course, as the director of MI9 and a duke, he must have more than two seals.

However, in his collection, these two seals are the most practical and have the least negative effects.

For Celt, these two seals are currently of little use. First of all, there is no way to connect to the spiritual world here, and the seal with the "traveler" ability is of no use.

In addition, he knew very well that even if he had the seal that could match the "Fallen Earl", he would not be able to defeat the "Mysterious Queen". In order to leave here as soon as possible, it would be better to use this seal to gain the trust of the "Mysterious Queen" first.

He could suddenly change his mind and take back the seal by threatening Odysseus when Odysseus's magic circle is halfway drawn.

If the "Mysterious Queen" set any trap, she would immediately capture Odysseus as a threat.

But Celt never imagined that he was part of the new magic circle.

The three men walked forward slowly. When they saw the corpse wearing the robe of the Church of the Evernight Goddess, Celt made a gesture and asked the other two to wait.

This "Chaos Hunter" used his ability to transform a large area around him into his "territory." After learning that the corpse was harmless, he continued forward.

Coming to the magic circle again, Odysseus and Coremond tried hard to fight against the leaked "breath of death", while Celt was relatively calm, as if he was not affected too much.

When they were still some distance away from the magic circle, Celt asked Odysseus to stop again and said, "Explain it here."

"Okay." Odysseus turned to Celt and said, "See that over there? The magic circle over there has basically lost its effectiveness. I will add a small magic circle outside to temporarily replace the leakage of tomb power from the magic circle area on the left.

"Then you need to inject a large amount of spiritual energy into that magic circle..."

Celt listened to Odysseus' explanation, seemingly very seriously, and occasionally seemed to be thinking about it, which seemed to be quite reasonable.

But he basically didn't understand what Odysseus said, so he could only look at the magic circle drawn by Odysseus first.

At the end of his conversation, Odysseus smiled and said to Celt, "I'd like to borrow something from you for a while."

Celt looked at the old magic circle and asked casually, "What is it?"

"You'll find out soon."

At this time, Celt's attention was on the magic circle and he didn't take it too seriously.

After Odysseus "explained everything", their plan officially began.

Odysseus took out the spiritual materials and pen he had brought with him and drew a small magic circle: "Please place your hands or feet in these two places and inject spiritual energy."

Celt took a closer look at the magic circle, and it did seem like there was a part of it that could prevent the "Eternal Whisper" from descending upon it.

He had seen the magic circle provided by the military and knew that the magic circle was not the original one, so it would be difficult to reuse it.

Seeing that Odysseus seemed to have solved the problem of the magic circle without much effort, Celt also became interested in the original picture of the magic circle.

Because he felt that the magic circle was somewhat familiar, Celt did not become suspicious. He stood in the position designated by Odysseus and began to inject spirituality into the magic circle.

Odysseus and Coreymond immediately felt relieved because the "breath of death" suddenly weakened a lot.

Celt also immediately felt that he was fighting against a huge force. If he was not a demigod, it would be difficult to withstand such an impact.

By this time, Celt had let down most of his guard and even winked at Coreymond, asking him to keep a close eye on Odysseus.

At this moment, Odysseus naturally took two steps back, then coughed twice as if clearing his throat.

Then, the "breath of death" in front of them suddenly became fierce. Odysseus no longer concealed it, sprinkled "flying powder" and used "flying magic".

Celt's eyes narrowed, and he was about to attack Odysseus, but he felt that he was facing a torrent of "breath of death". If he lost his concentration for a moment, his whole body would become stiff, as if his body did not belong to him.

At this moment, an idea suddenly appeared in his mind: destroy the magic circle! Resurrect!

Before Celt entered the magic circle, it was as if he was standing on the river bank, able to move forward and backward freely, but now he had waded into the torrent and could no longer escape.

If you are not careful, you will be swept away by the torrent and drowned in the fierce "breath of death".

This was an important step in Odysseus's plan, using the power leaking from the tomb to temporarily trap Celt. Otherwise, even if Bernadette could defeat Celt, it would be difficult to completely kill him in this vast wilderness.

"Exile!" Celt "exiled" that strange thought, and an illusory figure floated out from his body. He looked like a man from the southern continent with facial features, and his body was covered with dark green scales, looking very hideous and terrifying.

This is the power formed by the breath of the "Underworld Emperor" and can only exist temporarily for a period of time.

Because of this delay, Odysseus had already flown some distance away.

His goal was also very clear, which was to fly to the side of the corpse. The ensuing battle was not something a Sequence 7 could participate in.

Most of Celt's energy at this time had to be used to deal with the "breath of death" coming from the magic circle, but he still had enough energy to attack. As soon as he stretched out his hand towards Odysseus, he suddenly felt a huge pressure coming from behind.

He turned his head slightly and glanced at her out of the corner of his eye. Bernadette had put on the metal mask again and she looked like she had lost all trace of life.

The person who had just been driven out and was composed of the aura of the "King of Hell" suddenly became very well-behaved under the pressure of the Sequence 1 level displayed by Bernadette.

His body suddenly grew larger and longer. In a flash, his upper body was still a human covered with scales, but his lower body turned into a several-meter-long snake.

The scales on the snake were dark and shiny. Just one look at it made Coreymond stiffen all over and stand there unable to move.

After receiving Bernadette's order, the "Snake Man" immediately entangled Celt and blocked his attack again.

"Imprison!" Celt immediately imprisoned the "snake man" in front of him, and then prepared to exert force suddenly to temporarily block the torrent of "breath of death", break free from the magic circle, and escape from here immediately. His subordinates had no time to take care of him.

At this moment, a winding path leading deep into the forest appeared in front of Celt.

He immediately changed direction, and the path was still in front of him, as if the road would always be in front of him unless he stepped on it.

Celt took a deep breath, raised his hand, and "separated" the "path" that "reappeared" between him and Bernadette. When he turned again, the wilderness in front of him finally returned to what it was before.

But because of this delay, the "snake man" had already entangled Celt.

Celt grabbed the big snake tightly with both hands and threw it over his shoulder, throwing it out.

But at this time, Bernadette, who had no breath of life, had come close. She stared at Celt coldly, and her whole body emitted a pale light.

The fleeing Celt suddenly felt his whole body stiffen. The spirit of this demigod had been severely injured.

As Bernadette, who was glowing with pale light, approached, Celt felt that all the vitality and spirit in him were rapidly withering away, and his life was rushing towards death at the speed of a 100-meter sprint.

No, I must save myself, Celt thought to himself, and wanted to create "chaos" to "separate" from Bernadette again, but he found that the "chaos" he created was also rapidly fading.

Bernadette was getting closer and closer to him, and Celt's muscles were rapidly rotting, like a corpse that had been dead for several days.

At this moment, Odysseus suddenly smiled and said, "I'd like to borrow your head for a moment."
