The colonies of Mozambique began to become independent and form a country. Other countries in the Velon world began to lose interest in Mozambique. When focusing on managing their own one-acre three-point land, the Kingdom of England still maintained a passion for exploring Mozambique. A dedicated research institute for the civilization of the Mozambican continent has been established within the Royal Academy, and an expedition team is sent every year to the moorland continent.
The Shamanism of Mozambique is also the research focus of the Kingdom of Engel. There are more than a dozen research institutes related to Shamanism in the Royal Academy. Most of them are Shamanism research in Mozambique, and a few are from other continents in the Velon world. Shamanism.
In fact, no matter whether it is on the mainland of Velen or Minsk, there was Shamanism, but it only appeared in the Spiritual Church. Large-scale countries began to be established, and the Shamanism began to fade. The last Shamanism in the non-Mosang mainland recorded in history was 400. What disappeared many years ago in the continental desert of Minsk, together with the last desert tribe inherited from the past.
The Kingdom of Engel was first interested in shamanism not because of its ancient culture, but because of its mysterious power.
During a siege against the mainland tribe of Mosang, the shaman of that tribe controlled wild animals and insects in the jungle to attack the soldiers of the Inge Kingdom. Nearly 5,000 soldiers died in the jungle. This incident shocked the Inge Kingdom. The greatness made the Kingdom of Engels begin to pay attention to the research and use of extraordinary power, and Shamanism is the focus of research.
It is precisely because of the strong shamanistic research atmosphere in the Inge Kingdom that domestic people have begun to consider shamanism as a fashionable thing, especially among those young people who have nothing to do with this mysterious and eccentric religious culture. .
Take the Port of Saite as an example, there are more than 30 Shamanism research clubs on record, and the number of unrecorded ones is far more than this number. The people who founded and joined these clubs are almost all the elite children of the city. Even some young officials and businessmen will secretly join these clubs in order to establish connections and relationships.
Leo is just beginning to understand the situation of Port Saite. Most of the things about Port Saite are told to him by Jason and Nelson these days. As for the shamanism, he also knows from a related report in the newspaper. However, he never imagined that Shamanism would prosper in the Inge Kingdom, and no one even stopped this primitive sacrificial ceremony in this public place.
Although Leo did not study shamanistic sacrificial rituals, the early primitive deities were similar to shamanism, only one sacrifice dedicated to deities, and the other was sacrificed to the spirit of all things between heaven and earth. The knowledge gained by the person is enough to analyze what the sacrifice ceremony is in front of him.
"I don't know life or death!" After analyzing the general situation, Leo said indifferently to the men and women who fell into the frenzy in the jungle.
This sacrificial ritual is not a sacrifice to the spirits of all things, but a sacrifice exclusively for ghosts. The person in charge of the sacrifice feeds the ghosts summoned by him through sacrifice, while feeding the ghosts, You can get some rewards from ghosts. These rewards may be some hidden things that are unknown, or some kind of mysterious knowledge.
This kind of sacrificial ritual is not just a shamanic sacrificial ritual. Some primitive natural churches also have this kind of sacrificial ritual. They usually sacrifice their gods while offering sacrifices to their dead relatives. Soul resonance is inspired by the gods.
But now these people are not offering sacrifices to the ghosts of their loved ones, but looking for ghost sacrifices. It is precisely because of this that they choose the garden graveyard, which is the most likely place for ghosts, to perform this sacrifice ceremony.
It’s just that such random sacrifices don’t necessarily attract only ghosts, but definitely attract other things, maybe even evil things. Contact these things, let alone ordinary people, even if they are night watchmen. Powerful people with extraordinary powers should also be careful.
Thinking of this, Leo has foreseen the final results of these people, and has lost interest in the attention of these men and women, and turned to leave.
It's just that the abnormal situation sensed by the spiritual network made him stop and turned his head again to look at the mad men and women around the campfire, and this time he no longer observed with the naked eye, but activated the spiritual vision.
I saw in his spiritual vision that a huge black shadow enveloped the bonfire, and the meat thrown into the bonfire was transformed into a gas in a peculiar way and was sucked greedily by the black shadow.
"Feeding spirit?" Leo said with a little surprise when he saw the shadow.
In the black market, seeing the Turing root array of regular wizards, and now seeing the offering spirit recorded in the wizard's notes, it makes Leo feel that there are many wizarding forces in the Inge Kingdom.
Supporting spirits is a kind of spiritual assistant made by wizards. This kind of spiritual assistant mainly helps wizards to collect some special materials that are not normally collected, and a material that only spirits can collect.
In the research of the wizard, it is believed that there is a soul world in this world, and the dead souls will stay in the soul world before dying, and there are some strange materials that cannot be found in the real world in the soul world, so it is necessary to create a spiritual support, Through the provision of spirits, the material of the soul world is mobile.
The method of making a spiritual support is very simple, that is, to find a person who has just died. This person has to endure extremely cruel torture and let him die in extreme pain. The spirit full of hatred and resentment will not die. After entering the soul world immediately, it will also wander in the real world for a period of time, and this time can just cast a spell for the wizard to capture. As long as the supporting spirit is captured, the supporting spirit can be fixed between the real world and the soul world through the sacrifice of flesh and blood, giving the wizard one more free and easy-to-use labor.
However, the fact that the wizard can control the offering spirit does not mean that ordinary people can control the offering spirit. The process of making the offering spirit is very evil, so the offering spirit itself is evil. Even the wizard will use various methods to imprison and suppress the offering spirit. To avoid backlash.
But now, these men and women who perform the sacrificial ceremonies obviously do not control the feeding spirit, they don't even know what their sacrifice objects are.
It's just that Leo feels a little strange that this feeding spirit is clearly not controlled, but still able to control his greed for flesh and blood, hatred for creatures, only absorb the flesh after sacrifice, and did not actively attack those men and women This situation is not recorded in the wizard's notes and is the main reason for Leo's attention.
Under Leo’s attention, the sacrificial ceremony gradually came to an end. The person in charge of the sacrifice threw the last piece of flesh into the bonfire, and came to the front of the bone, and then took a book and a rock. Then he saw that he put the stone in the bone's throat, tied it with the wire prepared earlier, and then opened the book, chanting some mantras aloud by the fire of the campfire.
Just as the mantra was recited, the black image of the sacrificial ritual was under some kind of control, quickly shrunk, and merged into the beast bone, and the color of the beast bone gradually became black.
The men and women who saw this scene could not help but exclaimed, and looked at the changes in the animal bones with excitement, like looking at some shocking artwork, and looked at the priest’s gaze It is also full of worship.
In the sight of this worship, the priest's chanting of mantras became louder, and the people around him made a strange noise as if they were controlled by the surroundings, and stood up from the ground around the campfire Going crazy like dancing, even some people released their most primitive on the spot and started some secret things.
These mantras, which sound full of magical power in the ears of ordinary people, and cause their crazy behaviors, sound like meaningless nonsense in Leo. They have no power at all, let alone control people, I am afraid that even the binding force that drives the supporting spirit to the bones does not come from the spells, but the stone tied by the man to the bones throat. The stone should be the legendary rune stone.
The reason is that the legendary rune stone is because the method of making this rune stone has long since disappeared. All the rune stones that can be found in the world were made in the city more than a thousand years ago.
The rune stone is the name given to it by the wizard. Its real name is the stone. As the name implies, it is a created by the gods. At least the church thinks this. In the early mission of the church, the miracles were all done with the help of the rune stone. It is not the use of divine power and divine power given by the gods.
However, more than a thousand years ago, almost all spiritual churches capable of making rune stones announced that the method of making rune stones was lost, and the rune stones could no longer be made.
At first, people just thought that it was the church who wanted to sell for the price, because the medical treatment in various countries was not developed before the emergence of the medical school in Weilun World. The number of people who died of disease far exceeded the sum of other causes of death, and a large part of the rune stone was It is used to remove diseases, so nobles in many countries want to have a medical rune stone so that they can get timely and effective treatment when they are sick.
It is precisely because of this idea that the nobles of various countries have hinted to their own churches from time to time to purchase rune stones, and later some extreme methods have been adopted.
Therefore, when the various spiritual churches said that the method of making the rune stone was lost, no one believed that it was really lost. They believed that these spiritual churches either wanted to sell for the price, or they wanted to cut off those powerful people. Purchase ideas.
However, the development of things afterwards was beyond the expectation of many people. All the rune stones were recovered by the church, and the near-miracle powers exerted by the church during the missionary process are no longer created using rune stones, but rely on themselves to originate from gods. The magic technique to attract ordinary followers.
According to the notes of the Wizard of the Wasteland, the wizard has also studied the rune stones for a period of time and tinkered with the rune stones made in the Gamorian language, but the effect of these rune stones is very weak, and it is far from comparable to those made by the Spirit Church. So this thing is no longer valued by the wizard.
However, the rune stone that Leo now sees is obviously different from the rune stone he knows from his notes, because the ancient Gamorian language on this rune stone indicates that this rune stone was made by a wizard, and now this The rune stone made by the wizard can allow ordinary people with no power to control the spirit. The effect of this artifact is obviously different from the rune stone recorded in the notes.
Leo is not very interested in the manufacturing method of the rune stone itself. The magic array and other methods he now masters, whether in effect or production difficulty, are better than this rune stone. He is interested in manufacturing The person of Runestone, who can develop the Runestone that has been abandoned by the tower wizard and make it into a finished product. Obviously, the wizard’s knowledge of various mysterious knowledge is extraordinary, and the knowledge is very formal Wizard knowledge.
For a long time, Leo has mastered all kinds of wizard knowledge and power through his own learning, analysis and experiment. Even if he comes into contact with the wizard, he is an informal wizard like a blood wizard, but he is now The Kingdom of Inge may even be in Port Saite, and there is still a regular wizard who may have a towering wizard from here. This makes Leo also interested. I hope to meet this wizard and see Is it possible to exchange the inheritance knowledge of the official wizard from the other party~EbookFREE.me~ Even if it is not possible to exchange the inheritance knowledge, you can also exchange witchcraft with each other and learn more about the high tower wizard.
Thinking of this, Leo walked towards the open space in the forest where the sacrifice ceremony was held.
At this time, the host sacrificer had already begun the final step. He wanted to get paid from the offering spirit. He saw that he put his head in front of the skull of the beast, whispered a word, and then put his head on it. On the animal bones, it seems that it is ready to receive the message of feeding the spirit from the animal bones directly through this method.
However, the host sacrificer did not find that the moment he put his forehead against the beast bone, the supporting spirit in the beast bone became extremely furious, and he broke free of the rune stone control, and the controller beast bone sacrificed to the host The head of the sacrificial person bit the past, and the head of the sacrificial sacrificial person was bitten off instantly.
The surrounding men and women are still in a frantic mood. They are not only affected by the religious ritual just now, but also affected by some special drugs. They have completely lost consciousness to the outside world, and have not found that the people they lead have changed. A headless corpse slipped on the ground, and it was not found that the beast bone on the cross broke free and fell on the ground, watching them with empty eyes like a real beast.
