Chapter 203 The Book of Eternal Life
"Sisifer, are you back?"
The big boy obviously didn't expect Harribel to bring Sifa with him, so he shrank his hands in fright. He didn't forget that Harribel, the big brother, was once a recognized demon in Enqi Town.
"Oh my god, Sifer, you and Dad are becoming more and more like each other." Harribell rolled her eyes and looked at Sifer helplessly.
I'm not like him at all, at least my hairline is not as high as his.
Xifa murmured silently in his heart, and then stood between Amanqi and his sister: "So, where is Denise?"
"I'm here." A weak-sounding voice sounded in the living room.
Xifa strode into the living room, and saw a girl who was about the same age as her sister.
Director Kaosi's youngest daughter, Denise, was wearing a long dress with multiple layers of ruffles. Her flaxen hair had lost its former luster, and her pale face from fright made her feel distressed.
Xifa noticed that on the table in front of Denise, there was a book exuding an ancient atmosphere.
"Are you okay, Denise." Holly Belle's energetic voice eased the gloomy atmosphere in the living room, "Where's the thing I asked you to bring?"
Denise looked at the book on the table in front of her: "Here it is. Last night, Yelica performed the ritual recorded in this book."
Xifa walked over and picked up the book. The writing on the cover was Hermes, which meant 'Book of Eternal Life'.
Tsk, just looking at the name seems like something incredible.
Children nowadays are too courageous, they dare to touch anything.
Xifa glanced at Denise, and opened the ancient book casually. It was written in Hermes, recording the rise and fall of a family. Xifa didn't read carefully, and quickly turned to the page that recorded the ceremony.
Next to the text on this page, there are notes. Someone translated the Hermes text. No wonder children like Yelika can understand it and perform the ceremony.
This ceremony requires at least three people to participate. The venue for the ceremony is preferably in a cemetery. The specific process of the ceremony is as follows.
‘First of all, prepare a living creature, anything is fine, there is no specific direction, there is only one requirement, it must be alive. '
'Then in the middle of the cemetery, three people sat down in the shape of an equilateral triangle, and placed the prepared living things in the middle. Prepare candles, powder or essential oil of sleeping flowers, any ashes, powder from the hair of the deceased, silver plates and gold boxes, etc. '
'Then the ceremony can begin. '
'After the three participants are seated, first light the candles and place the living things on the silver plate. Then put other prepared things into the gold box and set them on fire. Then the participants must hold hands and chant the following mantra continuously. '
'The Sleeper of the Underworld;'
'Ruler of pale spirits;'
‘The existence that controls death. '
'The descendants of Terrence call here, guided by the lives of living creatures, in exchange for three souls. '
'Bring back Immortal Arlin, please. '
After reading the procedure of the ceremony, Xifa couldn't help frowning. The text of the ceremony process was translated in great detail, but regarding the incantation, only the pronunciation was left without explanation.
And judging from the pronunciation, this is obviously ancient Hermes language, that is to say, the three children who are acting recklessly don't know the meaning of the spell at all.
And this spell is very evil.
Judging from the previous three paragraphs, this is a prayer to the gods in the realm of death, but these three paragraphs of mantras are very vague, with no clear direction and no obvious honorable name.
Take Evernight, for example.
In her complete esteemed name, there are words like 'Goddess of the Night'.
And in the personality projection that Xifa once summoned, those saints also have clear honorable names, which allows prayers to be induced by the designated existence.
But the mantras in this book are very general. In other words, if you pray with them, probably those gods belonging to this field may sense them.
And the second half of the incantation highlighted the danger of this ritual even more.
The danger lies in "exchanging three souls", whose souls, of course, belong to the participants in the ceremony.
But I don't know with whom to exchange.
Is it the 'big brother' in the realm of death, or the so-called 'Immortal Arlin'.
In short.
Once the ritual is successful, the people involved in the ritual will probably die, and then something will return.
Xifa closed the book and looked at her sister: "Yelika's last name, do you know what it is?"
Harribel looked at Denise, and the pale girl recalled for a while and then said: "I remember it was Pauline, yes, when she introduced herself for the first time, she said that she was Yelica Pauline. "
Xifa couldn't help but glanced at the "Book of Eternal Life" in his hand. There were words like "Descendants of Terrence" in the ritual spell.
If there is no accident, it needs the descendants of Terrence to perform the ceremony before it can take effect.
But Yelica's surname is Pauline, and Amanche and Denise obviously don't have this surname.
"etc."
Denise suddenly said: "I remembered that Yelica once proudly showed off to us. She claimed that her family was very ancient. Now the surname Pauline can only be traced back a hundred years ago, but their family There is also an even older surname, which even goes back to the Quaternary."
Xifa coughed dryly: "That surname, shouldn't it be Terrence?"
Denise said in astonishment, "How do you know?"
"Well, it seems that you have won the lottery, and it is the special prize."
Xifa didn't plan to explain too clearly to Denise and the others, it would frighten people, so he winked at his sister: "Belle, come out with me."
"I'll be here in a while." Harribell patted the back of her good friend's hand, stood up, and left the living room with Xifa.
They came to a passage.
Harri Bell immediately said: "What did you find out, isn't this ceremony very dangerous?"
Xifa nodded his head: "It's very dangerous, it involves the realm of death, and it also involves the issue of exchanging souls."
He opened the "Book of Eternal Life" and turned to the page of the ceremony. Harribell, who had also received mystical teachings, could naturally understand the ancient Hermes text on it.
"Oh my god, Yelika and the others actually held such a dangerous ceremony."
The blond girl looked up at her elder brother: "Then what should we do now?"
"The safest thing to do is to ask Denise and the others to go to St. Witt's Church immediately and ask the church for help, but Yelica is afraid."
Xifa's conjecture is that the 'Immortal Yarlin' is probably the source of the Qinlunsi family and the ancestor of Yelika.
If the ancestors return this time, there is a high chance that they will be resurrected with the help of their descendants. In that case, Yelica would probably die.
Fortunately, this "Immortal Yarlin" should not be a saint, or a more powerful high-sequence powerhouse, let alone a god.
Xifa will make such a judgment because the mantra does not pray to 'Arlin', which shows that the ancestor of the Terrence family cannot return with his own strength.
So it shouldn't be difficult to deal with it, but it's better to let the church come forward.
Harri Bell nodded imperceptibly: "Okay, I'll let them."
"Tinis, what's wrong with you, Denise?"
Before my sister could say anything, Amanche's exclamation sounded in the living room, and then the big boy ran out, pointing at the living room: "Tinis has an accident!"
