Chapter 68 Flax Flowers
Black Snake led the old man out of the bar through the back door and into a dark alley in the distance. A crazy smile gradually appeared on his face, but he said in a steady voice:
"You may not know that the organization I belong to has a 'lucky' path... Its name is 'Monster'... Well, please follow me. Don't worry, this place is very close to the gathering place of the old gentleman 'Eye of Wisdom', and I dare not do anything reckless..."
"Really? Then I'm relieved."
The black snake smiled, and the expression on his face became ferocious. Ha, I will "let" your heart out in a moment...
With a creak, Black Snake pushed open a shabby door, turned his head, and his expression returned to a gloomy and smiling look. He said, "Come in, the formula of the 'Monster' potion is hidden inside. Alas, my memory is not very good, and the potion formula requires a lot of ingredients, which are very fragmented..."
"Yeah, my memory isn't that good either... I can't remember the potion formula either."
Seeing that the old man had no doubts and went straight into the dim house where only the candles were lit on the other side of the table, Black Snake no longer concealed himself, slammed the wooden door shut, and a ritual silver dagger slipped out of his left sleeve. He pointed it repeatedly, gushing out spirituality, and quickly filled the door-shaped passage that had been cut out.
There is no doubt that the spiritual changes also alarmed the old man holding the two walking sticks.
"What is this for? Do we need to seal the room?"
Black Snake smiled and said, "This is to prevent outsiders from eavesdropping... You know, it's best not to let ordinary people see us, as that would attract the official Extraordinary Dogs..."
The next second, he used the ritual silver dagger to pull hard on his arm! A large amount of blood gushed out, and then the black snake spat out crazy words in the ancient Hermes language that Old Blue was also familiar with:
"The Lord who created everything, the master behind the veil of shadows, the fallen self of all living beings!"
"I pray for your favor;"
"Look after your devout believers..."
This is a ritual, a ritual to pray to the "True Creator"!
The combat capabilities of "Secret Prayers" and "Listeners" are limited, but they are all proficient in various ritual magics. In this respect, they are even stronger than "Fortune Tellers" and "Secret Peers", and the steps can be simplified a lot.
Black Snake had lit candles mixed with herbs in advance and arranged an "interruption" ritual magic. As long as he closed the space and recited the next spell, he would get a response from the great being!
And the extraordinary people who have not experienced the "listener" stage will definitely die in pain after hearing the voice of the great existence! In this way, they can kill the enemy effortlessly!
This is the battle method of the Low-Sequence Beyonders of the Hanged Man Path! Favor = Divine Punishment!
Old Blue quietly watched the black snake "busy". In the sealed space, there seemed to be illusory and overlapping whispering sounds, which quickly became sharp, harsh and crazy.
He seemed to see thick darkness and hear a whisper that contained a lot of knowledge and extreme madness.
No human has been able to describe this sound specifically... Well, now we have it. Um, the retroflex sound is quite strong, and I can't understand anything else. It sounds like a mixture of Russian and other languages.
Old Blue's two walking sticks fell to the ground at the same time. He hugged his head with both hands and rolled to the ground. His elegant black suit was covered with a lot of dust and he let out screams.
At the same time, the black snake, who also heard the voice of the real creator, fell down unbearably and uttered a scream, but he was obviously more adaptable and forced himself to stand up. His gloomy face became extremely hideous, as if he was enduring extreme pain.
Black Snake pulled out a blue-bladed dagger from his waist, and moved step by step towards the old man who was rolling on the ground, laughing loudly: "Ha, ha, old man, a believer of the sun, you still want to live? Others will report you if they see you, but I'm different. I will kill you and hand you over to the organization. It will be a great achievement!"
He shook off the blood flowing from his nose and ears, bent his back, and stabbed the old man who was lying motionless on the ground. Bang!
The expression on Black Snake's face froze. He only felt a huge resistance coming from the dagger, as if it had pierced iron armor... Could it be that the old man had steel plates on his body?
He retracted the dagger and looked at it in confusion. The blade was still sharp, flashing with the light of poison. He turned his head and found in horror that the old man lying on the ground had stood up at some point and was so close to him!
What was even more frightening was that the old man had no expression on his face, and his blue eyes just stared at him! Black Snake was suddenly awakened, and his back was covered in cold sweat. After hearing the "favor" of the great existence, he could still maintain this state...
The black snake was just about to crawl on the ground and say a few words of "God's Messenger", but suddenly he felt that his right hand holding the dagger had lost consciousness, followed by a sharp pain.
He looked down and found that his right hand was held by the "messenger of God" in front of him, and the long section from his right hand to his arm was rotated in an unnatural position.
"Mahua, um, do you know what Mahua is?"
Before the black snake lost consciousness, it only heard the word "flax flower" in Loen language.
……
"Flax flower? But isn't this fried flour? Why is it called this?" Melissa picked up a golden, fragrant snack, drooling as she asked Klein curiously.
"Um, um... maybe it's because flax, when twisted into ropes, is very similar to it in both color and shape?"
Klein used all his knowledge and barely came up with an explanation.
"That makes sense!" Benson also picked up a "flax flower" and said, "It is really very similar to a hemp rope. It seems that there are still many little pieces of knowledge that we don't understand but are right next to us."
"Delicious!" Melissa felt that this fried snack was salty, fragrant and crispy, and its texture and taste were in no way inferior to the desserts she had eaten before.
Klein smiled happily and said, "As long as you like it, it's my first time trying it, and I figured it out by trial and error..."
After taking Ah Fu for a walk, he had some free time and tried making snacks from Earth.
——Melissa cooked dinner. He was afraid that breakfast would not satisfy the "Sun Kitchen Knife"'s craving for cooking, so he hurried to the kitchen to make something.
Benson was equally satisfied after tasting it. He praised Chef Klein again and said to his brothers and sisters:
"Hey, I don't know why the road on Narcissus Street needs to be renovated... It was fine before..."
Melissa picked up another one, nodded, and said with a light in her eyes:
"Yes, when I returned to Daffodil Street, I almost didn't recognize it. I had to walk very carefully... I heard that a large steam roller will be used tomorrow. Wow, I really want to see it..."
Klein used the newspaper to cover his smiling face and complained in his heart:
"Sister, why are you so interested in steam and machinery..."
"Hey, I know exactly why the road was built... I didn't expect that Old Blue could mobilize the people of the Steam Church to help..."
Thank you for watching and thank you for your support!
