Chapter 56 The Lost Ritual Completed
Byrne occasionally heard that in recent years some extraordinary people in the continent of Rioden were trying to explore the spiritual world.
It was hard for him to imagine how much risk those who had no knowledge of the spiritual world and no guidance from the gods would take by constantly trying in the dangerous, terrifying, and tempting spiritual world.
"What does the Shadow Gate mean?" Byrne asked again.
Irene recalled the mysterious knowledge in her mind and finally gave a concluding explanation:
"The Shadow Gate is also called the Chaos Gate, which means random changes in status. Different Shadow Gates will bring different changes."
Random changes?
Byrne was stunned for a moment, a trace of fear rose in his heart and he said:
"So what changes will happen after we pass through this shadow gate? Is it unknown?"
"Yes, but as long as we leave the spirit world, most of those states will not be retained."
Irene took out a knife and cut her palm, then she slowly squatted down with her blood-stained hand and stretched out her hand, making five mystical symbols in succession in the ruins.
They symbolize "restriction", "contraction", "expansion", "communication" and "reception" respectively.
These are the coordinates used to record the location of the spirit world. The next time they enter the spirit world, they can arrive here directly without having to search for the Shadow Gate again.
After doing everything, she stood up, stretched out her hand, and stared at the black vortex very solemnly.
Faint blue light spots emerged from the three people and slowly led to the shadow door.
The purple vortex disappeared immediately, and the black vortex gradually expanded until it occupied the entire field of vision. They immediately sensed that something was wrong with the world.
"We have passed through the Gate of Shadows."
As soon as Irene finished speaking, she discovered that the ruins of the entire city turned into black and white, and they all turned into people with only black and white left, as if they had become living beings in another dimension.
Irene was quite confused about the current situation but did not show it. Instead, she calmly turned to Granny Nada and said:
"My Lord is not only the dawn, but also salvation. He is the lost Lord who is far above everything in the world and will surely be resurrected. After you go through this lightless and shadowless ceremony, you will be able to become His further servant."
Although this was her first time in the spirit world and her first time passing through the Gate of Shadows, she had to try not to show any timidity, otherwise Granny Nada might look down on her in her heart.
Byrne took out the special medicine from his waist and handed it to Granny Nada who had been waiting for it for a long time. The latter thanked the brother and sister profusely.
The potion was drunk in one gulp.
It is cold, sticky, and even makes people dizzy. The extremely bad taste is accompanied by a feeling of joy. Those who take it know that they can finally go one step further.
She is about to receive a reward from the great being for her loyalty over the years!
Grandma Nada felt that her connection with the Lord of the Lost was strengthened, and a huge sense of fear spread throughout her body in an instant!
But she not only had great respect for the Lord of the Lost, but deep in her heart she also devoutly longed for Him to grant her powerful strength!
To transcend the ordinary people and reach the extraordinary is the dream of countless people since they were born!
However, in the world of the past, blood and talent determined everything.
The desire and thirst of ordinary people for extraordinary powers is so great that it is unimaginable. Many people are even willing to pay the price of their lives to explore powers different from ordinary people!
"I feel Him, oh, I praise you, great Lord of the Lost!"
Nada knelt down in the ruins and prayed devoutly to the black cross light flashing in the sky.
Success?
Irene and Byrne looked at each other. It seemed that Granny Nada's connection with the Lord had strengthened, so that even if she became a transcendent, she could still be controlled.
The purpose is achieved.
Any feelings or thoughts of betrayal will be noticed by the great Lord of the Lost, and they will immediately locate the other party and eliminate them.
In fact, after most people sense God's gaze, even if they still have thoughts of betrayal, their thoughts will disappear in fear.
"Come back to reality. You have completed the lost ritual in the spirit world."
After Irene finished speaking, she reached out and patted Granny Nada’s head, then drew a mysterious symbol of the “changing” moon and said:
"wake up."
Grandma Nada felt that she had a very long dream, and it took her a long time to gradually wake up from the deep hallucination.
She opened her eyes and saw Priest Irene and Mr. Byrne kneeling on the ground, and the great holy object on the altar.
Granny Nada couldn't help but take a look at the black light contained in the holy object, and suddenly she felt boundless fear. She felt that everything around her had lost its luster, and all things were gradually fading away and being destroyed.
It was a completely different state from the black and white city ruins that one arrived at after passing through the Shadow Gate. Even the sounds seemed to have faded.
She immediately fell to her knees in fear, muttering to herself.
At the same time, Irene praised the Lord of the Lost with great piety, celebrating the completion of the Lost Ritual.
"Oh, praise you, the great Lord of the Lost! Please grant us new power!"
After she finished praying, she slowly stood up, went to the corner of the basement and took out a bottle of dark blue potion that she had prepared long ago.
This bottle of ghostly blue potion is a magic potion made with the "Ghost Blue Fish Fins". Theoretically, anyone who takes it will be able to gain the extraordinary power of the "Road of Divine Sacrifice".
Byrne took a deep breath and watched Irene hand the potion to the excited old man.
The greatest hidden weapon of the Fisher family is the power to make others become extraordinary.
It's just that the principles of "caution" and "secrecy" make them feel that if people who are not blood relatives cannot be controlled, then it's best not to give them extraordinary powers easily.
The lost ritual developed through years of research gives the Fisher family the possibility to manipulate low-level supernatural beings, and they must seize this opportunity.
After drinking the magic potion, Granny Nada felt a strong dizziness in her head and almost fainted. She finally managed to stand still.
"I feel like I'm in a different world..."
Irene subconsciously wanted to help her, but she knew that she had to maintain her dignity as a priest and could not be too casual during the ceremony.
So she just stared at everything happening with an expressionless face.
Finally, Grandma Nada embarked on the "road to divine sacrifice" by climbing the long steps to the gods.
She is just like Irene in the past, mastering the first-tier sequence power "Servant" and gaining the extraordinary characteristics of "worshiping the gods" and "malice perception".
The spiritual enhancement made the mind clearer, and the improvement in physical fitness was like regaining more than ten years of youth. Granny Nada became extremely excited!
"My body now feels like it has returned to when I was fifty years old. How magical, hahahahaha! Great Lord of the Lost, I am willing to give everything! You are my true salvation, my Lord!"
She knelt on the ground with a fanatical look. Irene and Byrne looked at each other. Even if the Lost Ritual did not work to control Grandma Nada, it might not be a big problem.
Because, after gaining extraordinary power, the old man has become extremely pious to the great Lord of the Lost!
An idea suddenly occurred to Irene from deep within her heart.
What would happen if we tried to control more extraordinary beings using the Lost Ritual?
Not the extraordinary people who were later given the potion by them, but those who were already extraordinary people.
However, the entire process of entering the spirit world and passing through the Shadow Gate almost requires the cooperation of the other party. It is not as simple as forcing a bottle of potion into the mouth.
She shook her head, thinking that she couldn't do that out of caution.
After all, even if someone completes the Lost Ritual, if he insists on betraying, and is not even afraid of the gaze of the Lord of Loss, but instead guesses that the Lord is in such a state that he cannot act at will, then it will still be difficult to deal with in the end.
"Morning Light" must first win the other person's heart over to the Lord of the Lost. When a certain level of loyalty is cultivated and the other person has made sufficient contributions, he will lead that person to the spirit world to perform the Lost Ceremony.
She thought back to the children at the Dawn Orphanage and a smile gradually appeared on her face.
“I think that the great light of the Lost Lord will eventually spread across the entire East Coast.”
