Chapter 524: Even if we don't know each other (16)

Mo Yun's neck was tightly clasped by the young priestess, and the knuckles of his fingers with the jewel ring were pressed against his throat, and with a little force, the sharp, angular gems could pierce the skin and break the trachea.

Although it was difficult to breathe, Mo Yun still saw the obsidian family crest hanging around the neck of this girl who should not have graduated from the Spider Academy.

A spider with a rickety body and a strange big eye on its back.

House Obroza again.

Thinking of his titular trainer Jin Murui, Mo Yun tried his best to show himself a tame appearance, like a typical outcast in Mosoblay City.

"A lowly outcasts like me are not worthy of a princess, as long as you are willing to ......" Before Mo Yun's sign language was finished, the sharp gem had already cut through his skin: "Don't pretend to be confused, Mo Yun Verlaine! You are my brother's best student, and the only psychic warlock in Morsobre City who is not controlled by the Obroza family! A good psionic person like you will definitely be the superior sacrifice to please the gods!"

Accompanied by the priestess's words, the red eyes of this little girl from the Obroza family seemed to be on fire, as if something sharp was passing through Mo Yun's skull and invading deep into her brain—

This was not a simple psychic ability, because just as this power drilled into Mo Yun's mind, the female student of the Spider Academy held the Holy Emblem of the Spider Queen in one hand, and kept chanting the holy name of the Spider Goddess:

"Drow's life is but a compass, life cannot jump out of the spider's web after all, great elven weaver, your established trajectory cannot be betrayed!

The high-ranking priestesses of the Spider God Queen are often given special care by the Spider Queen, giving them the magic to spy into the spiritual world of others like psionics. This psychic snooping technique allows the absurd rule of the Dark Elf city-state to remain largely stable under high pressure without self-extinction in endless betrayals and conspiracies.

Take Mosoblay City as an example, every magician who enters Mosoblay City, whether it is an outsider or a family elite cultivated by major families, must undergo this "loyalty test"

However, the noblewomen of the House of Obroza tended to pay less attention to this charisma from Rose, as psychic abilities were clearly more advantageous in "peering into the heart". The priestesses of the House of Obroza also tend to have superficial beliefs in Rose, which is only a pandering to the traditions of Drow society.

But this girl who grabbed Mo Yun's neck is obviously different, she seems to have a deep belief in the Spider God Queen, but she is still a psychic!

Mo Yun felt that the spiritual barrier he used to protect his inner world was like a butter block meeting a hot knife, but it collapsed in an instant!

But this time, he felt more clearly that in the carnelian talisman hanging on his chest, a powerful spiritual power rose up, secretly lurking in the deepest part of his mind.

A voice sounded in his heart: "This time the trouble seems to be not small, it seems that so-and-so has to help." Listen carefully, little ghost—"

"There is a cloud in the "Cave Xuan Ling Bao Dingguan Sutra": If the husband wants to cultivate the Tao, he can first give up things, and there are many foreign affairs, and there is no resentment. Then sit still, and the vipassana mind arises, and if the thought arises, it must be extinguished, and silence must be made. Secondly, there are greed, floating, and chaotic thoughts, and they are all eliminated, and they are diligent day and night, and they must not be replaced. Only extinguish the heart, do not extinguish the heart, but condense the hollow heart, do not condense the heart, do not follow the law, and the heart always dwells. ”

"The so-called spiritual detection is to detect thoughts, to dwell in the heart, and to have a promising mind. If the heart moves, it is like the wind shaking the flag, and it has traces of its own. This is not only the case with mental detection, but also with mental shaping and memory modification, and there are obstacles in the mind, and there is no place to get rid of, so there is room for this technique. In the final analysis, it's just that the wooden flail has been replaced with an iron lock, and the essence is still the same. But the wooden flail and iron lock can lock up a tangible thing, how can you lock an invisible thing? At this moment, if you have a thought, extinguish a thought, have a heart, empty a heart, and end up with a white and vast earth that is really clean, where will she go to probe your consciousness, and where will she restrain your mind?"

God thought of it, but there was nowhere to go. With the hymn of the spider queen, the priestess's spiritual power had already invaded the depths of Mo Yun's heart.

But in Mo Yun's heart, there was a turbid sea tide, and there was a wind and tide at the beginning, but this little wave was momentary and stable, and then the impurities precipitated, leaving only a vast and boundless sea.

Even this sea of hearts is gradually clear and silent, as if transparent, but there is no end in sight, and even the "sea water" itself has gradually disappeared in the transparency.

In such a state of mind, even the priestess's own consciousness began to be dyed, as if she had forgotten everything, and gradually disappeared-

But soon, a high-pitched scream came from the priestess's consciousness, and her spiritual power turned from an unusually sharp blade into a liquid demon as thick as asphalt.

It was the Spider God's maid Wax Melting Demon, although it was only an image reproduced by spiritual power, but it was also like a dirty mud, and it began to pollute the clear "sea water" in the heart that seemed to be empty.

At this moment, the priestess, who had been distracted for a moment, came to her senses and stared at Mo Yun's face with a hint of fear: "Very good, it's not a mercenary trained by my brother." You should rejoice, Moyun Verlaine, if it weren't for my haste to attend the celebration of the Spider's Kiss, I would have brought you back to the Obroza family and made you my most valuable collection. ”

As she spoke, the priestess had already put a necklace around Mo Yun's neck that held a slave, and pulled the spiritually empty "prey" to the tunnel behind the stone wall.

And under the sea of hearts, Mo Yun's consciousness was facing a man.

The man with the short beard did not look very serious, dressed in a half-faded green robe, and looked at him thoughtfully with a book in his hand.

Staring at this human consciousness body, Mo Yun wanted to raise his hand defensively, but blurted out: "Who are you?"

"A ghost who is so interested in you that he has forgotten his name, his net worth, and even why he is here. The man with the sinister mustache shrugged his shoulders, and then changed to a supine position, like a seaweed drifting with the waves, swaying in the waves.

Mo Yun didn't care about the man's acrobatic performance in front of him, but continued to ask, "What do you want to do?"

"To help you survive this cruel ritual, and perhaps I hope you're not alone. The man held the book and pointed to the top of his head. "I think the spider god would probably like me more than watching a bunch of handsome drow stripped naked, dripping wax, pouring chili water, and having enough of it before disemboweling. ”

Mo Yun had heard too many legends about the ancient undead, and he also knew that many powerful spirit bodies occasionally attached to the bodies of living beings.

Some powerful magicians, in order to escape death and not want to transform into an undead creature like a lich that cannot enjoy the pleasures of humans, will choose a suitable body for soul transfer.

Some beings in the upper and lower realms will occasionally reside in the bodies of creatures in the main material realm, and there are even occasional rumors that demon lords and gods are attached to people.

But the man in front of him, who called himself a ghost, should not be that powerful high-level existence. The spiritual power transmitted by the carnelian talisman is not too strong, but it is just enough to strengthen one's psychic ability.

But one thing, this ghost is right, a powerful soul will be a treasure that demons and evil gods love more than the living people in the main material realm.

In the classes of the Spider Academy, it is not uncommon to summon low-level demons, observe the ecology of the lower realm, and even walk in the lower realm, which is full of such behaviors that are too dangerous and reckless in the eyes of human mages. And a priestess who wants to rise up in the Order of the Queen of the Spider God, summon a powerful demon, and then tame it in bed can be a very dangerous game that Rose appreciates.

Therefore, for the inhabitants of Morsoblay City, they are even more familiar with demons than most spell-based surface mages who delve into the abyssal summoning technique.

Mo Yun was also familiar with what the demons were doing. The Butterz Devil from Bartow's Nine Prisons may be courteous like a gentleman, but these contract maniacs will never be able to shake off their nature of coercion and seduction. The Tanari demons from the Endless Abyss are better understood, these chaotic and evil embodied beings are eternally violent and unpredictable, and only after they are completely suppressed can they engage in an "equal" exchange.

At least the ghost in front of you won't be either. Demons don't have the patience to do nothing in a carnelian amulet, and the devil won't suppress their habit of tempting creatures to sign contracts. At the very least, the ghost still has some kindness to himself.

As a Drow mercenary who had been in Mosoblay City for some years, after Mo Yun confirmed the other party's kindness, he immediately asked a very Drow-style question: "Thank you for your help, so what benefits can I get from you?"

The ghost glanced at the young drow and waved his hand: "Little spider of the Dayette mercenary group, you should pay attention to your appearance when negotiating, and don't become like your mercenary bald leader." But you're right, if you are in the right place, there is no other end than to be sent to the altar. ”

After preaching, the ghost thought for a moment and said, "So, let's first determine a small goal that can be achieved in the short term—to grow you into a psionic person close to the level of Kim Muray. ”
