After a while, Nefernis walked into her cabin, closed the door, and then she immediately took out a piece of white paper from her bag and put it on the ground. When the white paper was unfolded, a complicated "silence" magic circle appeared on it.
"Master Hunxu, please help me again..."
Sitting cross-legged on the edge of the magic circle, Nephnis murmured something, then she took out three iron coins containing the spiritual power of "silence" from her purse and placed them in front of the magic circle.
…
At the same time, in the New World, in the inland forest not far from the east coast, there was a camp of the Tupa tribe.
Inside the shaman tent of the Tupa tribe, the old shaman Uta, wearing a complete ceremonial robe with colorful clothes all over his body, was sitting cross-legged on the ground smoking a pipe. At this moment, Capac, who was not far away holding a picture album, suddenly spoke.
"Teacher Uta, everything over there is ready, we can start now."
"Okay... okay... I understand..."
Hearing Kapak's words, Uta exhaled a long puff of smoke, then looked towards the land in the center of the tent, where there was an even larger and more complicated magic circle drawn, and next to the magic circle, a mountain cat spirit was floating leisurely.
"Master Soulxu, please take your place. I am about to start the reverse spiritual ceremony... The worshipper over there is the one you met last time. She has already prepared the delicious offerings that you have tasted before."
Hearing Wuta's words, the leisurely floating mountain cat spirit suddenly shuddered, then licked its lips and immediately floated to the center of the magic circle and squatted. Then, Wuta stood up with the help of a cane, walked slowly to the edge of the magic circle and sat down.
"I never thought that one day I would also participate in the transaction between me and the white people. I hope that all this will eventually bring good results to the tribe..."
Sitting beside the magic circle, Uta sighed and murmured something, then he raised his hands, used his ability as a great shaman, and began to perform advanced applications of the spiritual ritual for the souls in the wilderness, sending the spiritual communication in reverse.
…
Time flies, and soon another afternoon has passed. With the darkening of the sky, darkness once again enveloped the vast ocean.
On the boundless sea of conquest, the huge, shining white Pearl is still cutting through the waves. Although the sky is dark, the dazzling lights still illuminate the huge cruise ship.
The wide front deck of the Shining White Pearl was crowded with countless men and women in bright and decent clothes, gathering here, almost filling up the entire front deck.
At this moment, all the passengers on the ship gathered on the front deck of the White Pearl. As there was not enough space on the deck, the passengers who did not get a good seat gathered on the superstructure at the front of the cruise ship. They leaned on the railing and looked towards the bow of the ship in the distance.
Gentlemen and ladies from all over the world, all dressed in bright clothes, gathered together at this moment, chatting and laughing with each other while waiting. Even though there was a howling cold sea breeze outside the boat, their enthusiasm did not diminish much. Everyone was waiting for the most exciting and shining moment of this trip with anticipation.
The exhibition of the Deep Blue Heart was the highlight of the voyage of the White Pearl and a moment that everyone had been looking forward to. Everyone on the scene was eagerly waiting for the first appearance of the sapphire that was said to be the most beautiful sapphire in history. They wanted to be the first audience to admire this famous gem.
The atmosphere at the exhibition was heated. While everyone was looking forward to the brilliance of the Deep Blue Heart in their conversations, the contents of the preview letter in the morning were mentioned from time to time. After being treated as a joke and laughed at by everyone, many people were looking forward to the moment when the exhibition was about to begin, expecting some different events to happen.
As time passed, finally, the appointed moment came and the Deep Blue Heart was about to appear. Amidst warm applause, Massimo Russo, a famous gem collector dressed in formal attire, walked to the bow of the ship from the exclusive passage. In front of the angel statue covered with white cloth, under the bright lights and amid strict guards, he smiled and waved to the applauding audience in front of him.
"Ladies, first of all! Welcome to the final exhibition venue of this exhibition. Under this vast sky, on this boundless sea, the deep blue light will be matched with the magnificent exhibition scenery to bring out its greatest beauty.
"Thank you all for coming tonight. As a reward, you will enjoy a view you will never forget!"
With his hands raised, Massimo shouted loudly to the audience in front of him, and the audience burst into warm cheers. When the cheers died down a little, Massimo continued to smile and speak.
"Everyone, I'm sure many of you have read those prank notes earlier. I wonder how many of you believe that there really is a so-called Thief K. But I need to clarify that I didn't deliberately send out those notes just to create a gimmick. With my fame as Massimo, I don't need to use these little tricks to attract attention. Therefore... the incident earlier was purely a prank. Thief K was just a clown. I think he succeeded in making me laugh."
Massimo spoke to the audience in a very humorous way, and the audience couldn't help laughing after hearing what Massimo said. Seeing this, Massimo continued to speak.
"Oh...oh...it seems that this thief K made me and everyone else laugh. It seems that he is quite talented in comedy. Maybe he can get a decent job in a circus in the future."
Massimo said this, and as he spoke, the audience laughed even more happily.
"Okay, okay, now the jokes are over. Let's get down to business. Everyone, pay attention! Now the Deep Blue Heart is behind me, in the hands of the Holy Cross Angel statue behind me. Although it is covered by a cloth and I can't see it, I can still feel its presence! Yes! I can feel it! This is the wonderful magic between me and the Deep Blue Heart!"
Massimo continued to speak, and there was no falsehood in his words. As an extraordinary person, he could indeed feel the spirituality of the Deep Blue Heart. He was sure that the Deep Blue Heart was still on the hands of the angel statue under the white cloth, and he had fixed it there himself!
Then Massimo slowly stepped back from the angel statue covered with white cloth and grabbed the white cloth that had been untied and fixed with ropes. Seeing his action, the audience at the scene couldn't help but hold their breath and pay attention to his next every move.
"Then finally, witness it all! This deep blue light! This is the most amazing sight you have ever seen!"
In his final declaration, Massimo grabbed the white cloth and pulled it hard. The white cloth covering the angel statue was torn off, and the shape of the angel statue reappeared in front of everyone. The audience focused their eyes on the angel statue's hands, and Massimo, who was standing under the angel statue, was waiting for the exclamations of mortals.
However, the expected exclamations did not appear, but were replaced by a whisper. Massimo looked at the audience in front of him and found that although they were all staring at the angel's hand with wide eyes, there was no surprise in their eyes. At this time, Massimo also realized that something was wrong, and at this moment, he also noticed something strange behind him.
Massimo turned his head to look at the angel statue behind him, and then he saw a huge blue gem inlaid on the angel statue's hand. This sapphire was very similar to the deep blue heart in his memory, but it was extremely dim and did not emit any light. More importantly, Massimo could not feel any spiritual traces on this gem.
His chalk-white "cup" could not sense any spiritual traces on the gem! To Massimo and the audience, the sapphire that could not emit light and had no spirituality was just like an ordinary sapphire, nothing special.
On the sapphire in the palm of the angel's hand, the spirituality and blue light disappeared, and instead, there was a note posted on it, with words written in the Ivig language that Massimo was familiar with.
…
I accept the real deep blue heart.
Thief K
…
Seeing this scene, Massimo was shocked, his eyes widened, and then he immediately took out a key from his purse, a key to unlock the embedded mechanism, and crawled towards the angel statue, towards the deep blue heart that had been "switch".
At this moment, below the sapphire on the angel's hand, on the inner part of the angel's hand, a spider corpse that had crawled out of the keyhole was crawling onto the sapphire. Without anyone noticing, it was tightly grasping the sapphire, and this sapphire was a genuine deep blue heart.
Dorothy, who was hiding in the crowd in the distance, controlled the spider doll and climbed onto the Deep Blue Heart, allowing the spider doll to "hold" the Deep Blue Heart. Then she used spiritual silk to transfer the concealment effect of the Concealment Ring, which could "hide all spiritual characteristics", to the spider doll, allowing the spider doll to hide with the Deep Blue Heart.
Under the effect of the barrier-hiding ring, the deep blue heart concealed the spiritual light and spiritual traces. Combined with the note above, in the eyes of Massimo and Costa, this was a fake.
Dorothy smiled as she watched Massimo climb up the angel statue with the key.
"This thing... you still need to take it off yourself..."
