"First, Miss Justice prepare an altar. It can be relatively simple, but it needs to be painted or engraved with this symbolic symbol."
During the conversation, a light curtain appeared in front of Fool, on which flashed the symbols composed of "Pupil-less Eye" and "Contorted Lines". The former represented secrets and the latter symbolized change, but a part of them was missing.
Does this represent His power, His authority is in the two, but it is incomplete?
Angel guessed while trying to write down the symbol.
"Then, it's the same as a normal ritual, but arranged in a dualistic way, without burning herbs, dripping essential oils, or picking a specific time, just chanting my name."
"Recite Ancient Hermes along with the following prayer lines:
"Your faithful servant begs your attention;
"I beg you to accept his contribution;
"I pray that you will open the gates of your kingdom."
"After reciting the prayer, choose the material containing Spirituality, combine it with the natural power shock caused by the spell, and wait for my response."
"If the ritual is successful, you can perform the 'sacrifice'."
As Fool's low-pitched narration ended, the symbols that appeared in front of Him also disappeared.
"Okay, I've got that in mind, so when should I try it?"
Justice asked with a hint of excitement.
Her curiosity about this new occult knowledge is beyond words...
Angel scolded his companions beside him, but he couldn't help but feel excited in his heart.
If the "sacrifice" succeeds, will I soon be able to obtain the materials of "Witch" Potion?
"You can do it right after the meeting is over, so neither of you need to spare any extra time."
"Miss Empress, the process of receiving the 'gift' is slightly different. The preparation before chanting the prayer is the same as Miss Justice, but the prayer needs to be changed to the following three sentences."
Fool turned his attention to Angel again and warned.
"Your faithful servant begs your gaze;
"I pray that you will open the gates of your kingdom;
"I pray for your strength."
Angel After writing down these differences, he nodded in response. "I understand."
Seeing the end of Fool's teaching, Hanged Man lost no time in asking questions:
"Mr. Fool, can anyone else, I mean anyone else in Tarot Club, also be able to trade using this method?"
"That's assuming this attempt is successful."
Fool answered with a smile, which was regarded as answering Hanged Man's question.
"Praise Fool."
Hanged Man, who received the answer, said piously, and others followed suit with a compliment, ending the topic.
The new topic naturally became "Vice Admiral Hurricane" which was discussed enthusiastically at the last meeting.
"Mr. Hanged Man, the two Detective I entrusted locked his whereabouts through the profile of 'Vice Admiral Hurricane' Qilingus and the relevant information about the missing homeless man."
"But?"
Listening to Miss Justice's tone, which showed no excitement about a major breakthrough, Hanged Man answered the words calmly.
Sure enough, Justice's next answer took a turn.
"However, the cunning Qilingus discovered that someone was following him, and brutally killed Detective's informant, lurked in place, and almost caught Detective who was heading to the informant's home."
"The two Detectives narrowly escaped death, but they believed that the encounter had alarmed each other. It was unsustainable to continue tracking using the previous method, and the horrific death of the informant would inevitably alert the police and Backlund's official Beyonder, so they gave up the follow-up tracking and called the police."
Called the police...
Angel was listening to the exchange between the two, and when he heard this word, he couldn't help but praise Detective's decisive behavior.
And judging from Miss Justice's words, these two Detective are both women?
"I can understand their choice. I once said that this 'Vice Admiral Hurricane' is a cunning and fierce pirate. It is very rare to escape from him."
Hanged Man replied with a hint of regret.
His tone immediately turned serious and he looked up at Fool:
"Mr. Fool, I have obtained a new piece of information. 'Vice Admiral Hurricane' infiltrated Backlund to complete a difficult task, which involves a very important item. It is said that it can help Qilingus become a strong person like High Sequence as soon as possible."
"High Sequence, do you mean Sequence 4? But I remember you said that this 'Vice Admiral Hurricane' is currently just Beyonder of Sequence 6?"
Angel couldn't help but interrupt.
"Yes, he is indeed just the 'Wind-blessed' of Sequence 6."
Hanged Man turned his eyes to Angel and nodded to confirm.
"The information I received mentioned that Qilingus believes that once he completes the mission and obtains the item, he will be as famous as 'King of the Five Seas', Nast and others, making 'Four Kings' among pirates become 'Five Kings'."
"You should all know that the so-called 'Four Kings' either has extraordinary ships and Mystical Item so that they can compete with High Sequence, or they themselves are powerful High Sequence. Since Qilingus claims to be one of the 'Five Kings', it must be close to the level of other Four Kings, so I made the above speculation."
No, I don't know... even who Nast is, I just found out from the church books...
Angel listened quietly, considered the words and asked:
"So, is that an item that allows him to quickly improve Sequence without losing control, or is it Mystical Item that can rival High Sequence?"
"Yes, but I think the latter is more likely. After all, there is no shortcut to the improvement of Sequence."
After laying out these contents, Hanged Man turned his attention to Fool again, and asked with expectation:
"Dear Mr. Fool, I will return to Backlund in the next few days. If I can find out the true purpose of Qilingus and what Mystical Item he wants to get, please allow me to recite your name and tell you through the ceremony."
No wonder Mr. Hanged Man tried his best to exaggerate the power of the Mystical Item that Qilingus regarded as the target. It turned out to be to arouse Mr. Fool's interest in an attempt to Persuasion him... No, let his favored ones take action?
If the High Sequence beloved of Fool can take action, it should be easy to deal with Beyonder like "Vice Admiral Hurricane" who has not yet entered High Sequence, right?
Angel also looked at Fool.
"Okay."
Fool answered briefly, unable to hear the emotion in his tone, and seemed to have no interest in such "little things".
Hanged Man seemed a little discouraged, but still stood up and bowed respectfully.
"Allow me to thank you in advance for listening."
Gray Fog dispersed, the crimson appeared and disappeared again, Angel returned to Tingen, returned to 6 Daffodil Street.
The first thing she did when she came back to her senses was to write down the anonymous account Miss Justice gave her before the meeting ended, so as not to forget it.
If Fool's "attempt" is really successful, she can deposit 350 pounds into this bank account and complete the transaction.
It's really like online shopping in the information age... No, it's even more convenient than that. The goods don't even need to go through logistics, they can be transferred to me through Mr. Fool...
Looking at Sun slanting westward outside the window, she did not waste time, but went directly from the study to the basement, laid out the table that had been used for sacrifices, and with the memory that had not been dissipated, she drew a symbolic symbol composed of "Pupil-less Eye" and "Contorted Lines" representing Fool on the table as an altar.
Then she placed Sandalwood Candle and the ceremonial knife, ready to perform the ceremony of receiving the "gift" at any time.
Finally, the item rich in Spirituality...
She rummaged around in the basement, but most of the materials had already been used to make bullets. She had been busy looking for the "Red Chimney" building recently and was busy with the inspection, so she had not been able to replenish the materials.
In the end, she could only take out a small precious "Star Crystal", which can be directly used to configure Beyonder Ingredients of Potion. Strictly speaking, it is higher than the general material rich in Spirituality, and the price is far worse, but compared to delaying the attempt of Mr. Fool, this price difference is nothing.
Holding the Beyonder Ingredients, which was the size of a fingernail and shone like a star, the memory of the first time he met Old Neil reappeared in Angel's mind.
While looking at the starlight emitted by the crystal, a rich Gray Fog suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. In the mist, a high-backed chair and a mysterious figure on it were looming.
"Miss Empress, Miss Justice's attempt has been successful. Are you ready to accept the 'gift' ceremony?"
Low and familiar voices came from all directions, making it difficult to tell the direction.
"Yes, I can perform the ritual at any time."
She suppressed her sadness and replied.
Build Wall of Spirituality, light the candle, and in the faint light, Angel whispers the prayer of Professor Fool.
"...I pray that you will open the gates of your kingdom;
"I pray for your strength."
The mixed ancient power of Ancient Hermes reverberated in Wall of Spirituality, arousing the constant vibration of natural power, like a strong wind blowing around Angel.
She endured the discomfort of the wind blowing across her skin, raised the Star Crystal in her hand, and poured Spirituality into it.
The crystal shattered into particles like weathering and disappeared between the fingers, making the hurricane more violent, but no longer as unbearable as a knife.
The candlelight representing Fool gradually expanded, forming a door Illusory Door in front of Angel. The door was engraved with the symbol drawn in advance on the altar, representing the power of Fool.
"Boom——"
A thunderous sound came, and the door in the sky opened and closed. Angel looked down, and a bottle of ink-black liquid suddenly appeared on the altar.
That's "Black Abyss Demon Fish's Blood".
