Chapter 751 Lord Dark Lord, Times Have Changed

Dolphin Rohr flinched as if being burned by that ferocious gaze, and said in a low voice, "Master, I..."

"Bring seven Muggles here and drain their blood." Voldemort had no interest nor listened patiently to his explanation. "If our "coins" don't satisfy the devil later, I'll use you to make up for it..."

"Yes, master." Hearing this, Dolphin didn't dare to say another word of begging for mercy. He walked into the frightened Muggles, and with his trembling hand, he selected seven that seemed to be okay. The muscular male Muggle jumped and cut the wrists of the Muggles with a sharp blade.

The seven Muggles wanted to scream but couldn't make a sound, tried to cover their wrists but couldn't move. Compared with the pain in their wrists, what frightens them the most is that they seem to feel that every drop of their blood is continuously draining from their wrists. out, dripping onto the ground...

The gurgling blood slowly gathered towards the altar in the middle of the room as if it was alive again. The red blood flowing upstream seemed to be shrouded in a slight silver light, forming a pentagram in the room similar to Allen's in the tower. The six-pointed star array of the imprisoning magic circle, six skulls are piled up like a pyramid on each star corner of the six-pointed star array. These white skulls are covered with runes drawn in Purgatory language. The empty eyes, nose, and mouth are facing the stars. The middle position of the array.

"Too slow, Dolphin." Voldemort fiddled with his wand carelessly with his slender fingers, but Dolphin didn't dare to be careless, and waved his wand again and again, speeding up the blood loss of the injured Muggles.

Clearly aware of this change in speed, the Muggles were tormented by overwhelming fear. With a plop, a female Muggle fell to the ground first, and shortly thereafter, a fat middle-aged male Muggle also fell to the ground. The Muggles who had their wrists cut and were helpless in the face of the gradual approach of death fell to the ground one by one. Their widened and gradually dilated pupils looked at the gray stone ceiling in despair until the world in their eyes completely turned into darkness.

In fact, the blood of only six adult humans is enough for this ceremony, but Voldemort replaced the superstitious numbers of the devils with his own superstitious numbers-this also caused a Muggle's blood to be wasted, Flowing helplessly under the altar.

Originally dismissing summoning magic and illusion magic, Voldemort, who only believed in more direct, simple and crude magic power, changed his attitude towards magic after fighting Allen in the Ministry of Magic. In addition to asking his subordinates to collect information related to illusion magic for him Knowledge, he also mobilized his Death Eaters to search for ways to summon the devil, and even sent people to track down the Greek wizard who was invited by the Ministry of Magic to summon the devil Bayer, but the results still did not satisfy him.

Because the few Greek wizards who were said to be good at conjuration that the Death Eaters tried their best to find were controlled by the Imperius Curse, so they didn't know anything about how they summoned a devil like Bayer.

The knowledge of summoning the devil provided by the Death Eaters is either a few fragments of records within their family, far inferior to the detailed records of the Death Style Black family, or even just some rural legends. Only Bellatrix Lestrange took a few people to sneak back to England personally, and obtained from the mind of the British Auror the knowledge of the curse of the otherworldly oath that Alan provided them—and In order to prevent the collar badge worn by the Auror from detecting that his wearer's health was in an accident and notify other Aurors to come, so that the attack would be exposed and they would not be able to bring back relevant knowledge back to Albania. He suppressed his desire to kill, and let Lockhart finish the finishing work with the Oblivion Curse he was good at before leaving.

However, since the Oath of Otherworldly Oath itself can only summon some low-level alien creatures, and it is necessary to have a certain understanding of the name and habit form of the summoned object when deciding the type of summoning, so the Aurors only mastered The situation of the low-level devil hellhound information provided by Allen makes this spell not even tasteless to Voldemort himself,

These low-level creatures are not able to participate in battles at their level.

Of course, with the attitude of making the best use of everything, Voldemort asked his men to try to learn this spell-although because most of the Death Eaters' camps generally have nothing to do with order, they are some chaotic and evil guys, causing them to summon After the Cerberus came out, it was much more difficult to fight against the will of the Aurors, which caused some Death Eaters with low combat power and insufficient talent to be killed by the Cerberus they summoned when using this spell. After all, elite members like Uncle Lestrange and Lucius were very safe in using this summoning spell.

Although the ways of summoning devils in other countries are different, they cannot escape the traditional model of sacrificial ritual magic used by traditional wizards.

Compared with the magic knowledge that Bayer provided to Allen in the Goblet of Fire event, the traditional summoning method of this kind of wizards is extremely troublesome from the beginning of the preparation work. Generally, wizards provide rare magic materials to the devils. Or some magical creature or even a lot of gold as an offering.

Although the devils themselves have no interest in gold, when they "do business", they find that many mortals are willing to sell their souls for such small things, so they are very cunning and are now very happy to use some things when doing business. In exchange for a large amount of gold as a reserve.

Of course, some buffoons who don’t know anything will recklessly use silver coins, which are called poisonous stings by both devils and devils, to pay the bill. This is very rude and of course a very dangerous behavior, because although silver coins Magic weapons deal extra damage to such lower planar creatures, at least a significant number of such lower planar creatures. Although ordinary silver items do not have this effect, it is obvious that they will still feel the sting - if you are facing a devil, it may be because of the other party's greed to complete the transaction. Give you a break, and even kindly explain everything to you and ask you to pay in other currencies of equivalent value, but if you do this to a demon that is constantly changing its ways and looking for trouble...

At this time, Voldemort obviously wouldn't have the patience and willingness to use what he thought was a more troublesome and costly method—he didn't want the funds in his Death Eaters' families to be wasted on this kind of method that could be used. The worthless Mudblood replaced the matter, so the mysterious man who only knew Bayer's name and form from the old news of the Goblet of Fire adopted a summoning method that fit his identity as a dark wizard, that is, a living sacrifice.

Living sacrifices are a way of dedicating the lives of intelligent creatures to seek returns from devils or demons. In the era when the ancient gods hadn't been buried with Netheril's crazy magic experiments, the evil gods would also require believers to hold this ritual regularly. kind of ritual. Today, in the traditional shaman culture of some Native American shamans, this kind of bloody magic ritual still remains in the primitive magic that has been preserved-but the objects of sacrifice of these Indian shamans are their own ancestors, and in addition The Magic Congress of the United States, which is the civilization of European wizards, has also ordered to prohibit the barbaric behavior of these aborigines, at least on the surface.

Most devils and demons accept this form of sacrifice—it means killing some intelligent creature alive. Generally speaking, the victims are humans, but the dark forces generally don't pick whether the sacrifice is a giant or a merman or It's some magic baby.

In many of these rituals, blood is considered a sacred symbol of life. The blood of an innocent victim, even his soul, is considered part of the sacrifice. Bloodless rituals, such as strangulation or drowning, can also be part of a living sacrifice, but in general, cruel people prefer to see the blood of the sacrifice, although this is not completely necessary in fact. .

And Voldemort is obviously the cruelest of these guys, he chose this dark way that incidentally also satisfies his personal cravings, mobilizing Death Eaters to risk being captured by Aurors all over the world Muggles—and in order to have enough time and place to collect enough Muggles, they used their gold Galleons to establish a secret base in this uncontrolled Albania.

Before accumulating a sufficient number, the Death Eaters could only keep the Muggles they caught first in cages. During this period, many Muggles died of rapid physical decline due to lack of care, and some He died directly from the abuse of his Death Eaters purely for fun, so this group of dark wizards can only continue to catch Muggles to supplement.

Therefore, after the altar was built and the mysterious man who had learned to master this ritual magic estimated that the amount of Muggle storage was almost enough, he immediately chose to start the ceremony.

This kind of magic circle carved by Voldemort, which is considered to be on the road in terms of this kind of knowledge, is compared with the magic circle that can be recycled in the prison room of the Ravenclaw tower. The magic circle used in this living sacrifice is only a one-time item.

The magic array constructed from the blood of Muggles is temporary, far less stable than that drawn by mithril with good magic conductivity, and not only the material, but also the magic lines they present are different. Luo, who has read the Nether scroll Ina Ravenclaw himself drew more intricate details of the textures drawn by Mithril, and the magic power it can contain is also more powerful-although if it is just a transaction with the Duke of Devils, the effect of this magic circle That's enough.

Seeing that the groove carved on the magic circle on the ground refused to absorb any more blood, Voldemort's slender fingers like white spiders clenched the wand tightly, pointing at the hexagram where the blood gathered, his lips did not move, full of order The language of evil and evil seems to come from his two slender nostrils, but this sound is not heard by people, but acts on the soul.

The Death Eaters in the Great Hall felt dizzy and weak all over their bodies. Gilderoy Lockhart even felt his whole body start to tremble, his face was pale and his eyes widened in horror.

Unlike the barely supported by wizards, Muggles have no magic power in their bodies at all. It is even more painful for them to face this feeling directly. A kind of violent pulling effect acts on their soul and body, as if their souls are being pulled bit by bit. Withdrawing from the top of the head, this severe pain directly acting on the soul paralyzed all the Muggles in place, and they couldn't even blink their eyes.

The young man who was the first to open the door of the iron cage couldn't hold on at first, and fell to the ground in convulsions. After kicking weakly on the boulder floor a few times with his big feet, his face was distorted and he stopped breathing. The body of the soul dissipated into powder in the air of the hall

Since this kind of blasphemy directly affects the soul, it has nothing to do with the physical strength of the Muggles. Therefore, even if the Muggles look strong, if the soul is weak, they will be the first to fall before those old and weak women and children with strong souls. died.

And as Voldemort chanted spells continuously for a long time, every Muggle fell to the ground and died and dissipated, and a skull full of purgatory words absorbed a soul. As the thirty-six Muggles fell to the ground and lost their lives, the thirty-six skeletons piled up on the hexagram array were all ignited by their souls one by one, and the fire of souls danced in the hollow eye sockets of the skeletons.

In the center of the six-pointed star array drawn by blood, flames emanated faintly from the huge circular pool of blood. The blood pooled in the pool of blood was gurgling and tumbling, and the blood bubbles bulged and burst one after another. The pungent sulfur smell gradually became stronger, and the hot breath continued to spread in the air.

Suddenly, goat-like horns emerged from under the tumbling blood pool in the middle of the hexagram. It rose slowly, and its mane of burning, steaming flames was overwhelming.

Black venom dripped continuously from the monster's mouth, and its burning yellow eyes looked around the hall, then fixed on Voldemort who had stopped chanting.

Gradually, the whole figure of this almost four-meter-high Devil Grand Duke was revealed in the hall. It had long and powerful arms, a long flaming whip in its left hand, and a long sword full of lightning in its right hand; the same wings; around its waist was a wailing human head; three silver-white skulls pierced through its tail.

"Lord Dark Lord, times have changed, why do you have to use such a wasteful way to call me here?" Bayer half-joking and half-complaining in his slightly frivolous and exotic tone, "I am not the bottomless abyss Those perverts, the reputation of our devils is largely ruined by your useless and wasteful ways of resources... Coupled with the mentally retarded behavior of young people in the United States who sing noise music bands, this makes our business even more difficult Do…"
