Chapter 66 Awakening the Strong?

Chapter 66 Awakening... the strong?

It was night.

Karen sat at the desk in the bedroom, with a piece of white paper on the table and a box of brand new paint on it.

After hesitating for a long time,

Karen finally didn't want to use the box of paint, but picked up a sharpened pencil that he had asked Lent for earlier and began to draw casually on the white paper.

First draw the eyes of the person, then expand the other facial features, and finally pull down the neck and shoulders of the person.

Soon,

a "person" that Karen didn't even recognize appeared on the paper;

Even the gender distinction was a little vague, whether it was a man or a woman, Karen herself didn't know.

After the painting was finished, he was too lazy to appreciate it himself, but turned the white paper over and turned it face down.

If there was another psychologist standing here at this time, he could analyze Karen's mental state at this time through this painting, but Karen didn't have the interest to do a psychological analysis on himself.

"Brother, do you need me to pour you a glass of water?" Lent asked, lying on the bed and playing cards.

"Okay."

Lent got out of bed and walked out of the bedroom. After a while, he came in with a glass of ice water and put it on Karen's desk.

"Brother, are you in a bad mood?"

"No." Karen shook his head, "Maybe I feel a little depressed."

"Then this card is for you, brother."

Lent put a card in front of Karen. It was a beautifully printed card with a full moon on it, marked [Moonlight purification, can dispel all negative attribute magic influences. ]

Lent still has a stack of similar cards in his hand. This is one of the most popular toys for male students of his age in recent years. Lent spends more than half of his pocket money every month on collecting these cards.

Karen can understand this. In his previous life, he also bought a lot of instant noodles to collect such cards when he was a child.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome, brother."

Lent lay back in bed.

Karen drank two sips of ice water, leaned back on the chair, propped up his hands, and stretched.

"I'm going out for some fresh air. Do you want to come with me?"

Lent asked curiously, "Will Grandpa come with me?"

"We can go and ask him together."

Lent stuck out his tongue and said, "Brother, I don't want to take this risk."

The family's awe of Grandpa is really ingrained in their bones.

"Come on, brother, I'll give you another one." Lent took out another card and handed it to Karen.

Karen took it. There was a person drawn on this card, and there was also a shadow behind this person that was pulled diagonally to the side.

[Shadow Guardian - Summon a black figure to accompany you]

"You've given me two cards. Are you willing to give them up?" Karen asked.

Lent smiled and said, "Some cards are easier to get and not difficult to collect. I have many of the same ones."

"Well, that's good."

Karen walked out of the bedroom. The door of Grandpa's study was opened. Uncle Mason could be seen inside. He was standing on a ladder to change the light bulbs.

Karen walked in and helped his uncle hold the ladder.

Uncle Mason said as he was changing the light bulb: "Mr. Longmar, an old church member, is dying. Mrs. Longmar called and asked your grandfather to pray for him. Mr. Longmar Jr. drove to pick him up."

"Grandpa is really hard-working." Karen said.

"Who says it's not true? Half of the family's stable business is earned by your grandfather's reputation. Okay, it's changed."

Uncle Mason came down from the ladder, walked to the switch and pressed it, and the light came on.

"By the way, Karen, do you want a midnight snack? Your aunt just bought a box of canned herrings for us this afternoon."

"That's great, but I'm not hungry now. Eating canned herrings when I'm not hungry is a crime against them, so I plan to go out for a walk."

"Oh, then you're really out of luck." Uncle Mason said with some regret, "You know, the time our family allows us to open canned herrings is actually very short, especially after winter, when we can't open all the windows for ventilation. They often think that we've set off a gas bomb there. Alas, poor people can never understand the true meaning of food, right?"

"Yes, mourn for the herrings that have lost their soul companions."

Karen pretended to be very sorry and walked out of the study and went downstairs.

At the dining table on the second floor, Aunt Winnie was checking the accounts with Aunt Mary. They seemed to be arguing in a low voice about the details of a certain amount. They didn't notice it when Karen went downstairs.

Coming to the living room on the first floor, it was very quiet. Only the lights at the staircase were on, so several corners of the living room were dark at this time. For outsiders, it was easy to arouse a lot of reverie at this time.

Karen looked at the door of the living room, but did not rush out. Instead, he walked into the basement and came to the door of his aunt's workshop.

The two welfare bill bodies lying inside had been preliminarily processed by his aunt. The magician was wearing a cheap suit, and Mandira was changed into a red dress by his aunt.

Karen looked at Mandira. After a while, Mandira seemed to be affected by something and sat up from the steel bed.

"You are bored staying here, let's go out for a walk together?"

Tomorrow morning, the two bodies will be placed on the first floor one after another. After completing the process and taking photos, they will be sent to Paul's crematorium for incineration.

Karen walked to the living room on the first floor. After making sure that no one from her family had come down, Mandira followed behind her and also walked out. She was wearing a long skirt and putting on makeup, giving people a very gentle and quiet feeling.

As soon as she walked out of the courtyard gate, Karen saw a figure in a red suit. It was Alfred who was walking here.

Alfred saw Karen, and at the same time, he saw Mandira standing behind Karen. He immediately sighed in his heart:

Oh, my God, is this a habit that only great beings have, taking a dead person out for a walk late at night?

"Master."

Alfred greeted Karen.

Karen didn't expect Alfred to come so late. If he had come out a little earlier, he wouldn't have to "call" Mandira to accompany him.

"Why are you here?"

"Master, I have found some clues about the circus, so I came to report to you. They have not left the scope of Luojia City, but are hiding in a farm to watch the wind direction. I will continue to find connections to keep an eye on them and get more information."

"Okay, as for the information, synchronize a copy to Dis."

"Yes, I understand. Then I will go to Master Dis to report now?"

Alfred felt that he should not be a light bulb, even if the girl that the master took out for a walk tonight... She is a corpse.

"Grandpa is not here, he went to Mr. Longmar's house to pray."

"Mr. Longmar?" Alfred chewed on the name.

"It should be just an ordinary believer." Karen said.

"Okay, I know, Master."

Dis told him that there are seven days left, and it will be past midnight soon. In fact, there are only six days left.

In such a precious countdown, Dis deliberately went to an ordinary believer's house at night to complete the work that an ordinary priest should do;

Is it difficult to understand? No, it is easy to understand, because this is the way Dis behaves.

"Alfred, have you been to Wayne?" Karen asked as he walked forward.

"I have been there, Wayne is a wonderful country." Alfred answered as he followed.

His answer was simple, because he knew that even if the young master had not been to Wayne, he would definitely be able to gain an understanding of Wayne through various means.

The original intention of the question was to ask in a less blunt way: Come with me for a walk.

One person, two people, three people.

Karen walked in the middle, Alfred followed half a body behind, and Mandira followed Karen's pace steadily.

For the next section of the road, Karen did not take the initiative to speak again, and Alfred also kept silent tactfully. Mandira was even less likely to suddenly say:

Oh, the moonlight tonight is really nice.

Walking into a small park in Mink Street, it is actually a slightly larger open space with a few bonsai and a few benches.

Karen sat down on the bench, and Alfred sat down next to him.

Originally in her mind, Karen also signaled Mandira to sit down. Mandira also accepted the signal, walked to Karen, turned her back to Karen, and then sat directly on Karen.

If Karen reached out and hugged her at this time, it would be one of the typical ambiguous sitting postures between lovers.

Alfred's eyelids jumped slightly, but he immediately looked away and looked at the dim street lights opposite. What a beautiful light scene. This street light is really a magical manifestation of the Creator.

Karen actually didn't expect Mandira to choose to sit down like this. Auntie couldn't put too thick clothes on her. Whether the corpse was afraid of the cold was another matter. Anyway, under normal circumstances, they couldn't complain to Auntie.

Therefore, Mandira, who was only wearing a skirt, gave Karen a very cold touch. The muscles had long been stiff and uncomfortable, as if she was leaned on by a person with muscles all over her body.

Mandira, sit over there.

Karen said in her heart.

Mandira stood up, walked to the bench opposite, and sat down facing Karen and Alfred.

"Alfred." Karen shouted.

"Well, Master?" Alfred, who was still immersed in the artistic beauty of the street lamp designer, almost didn't react.

"Can Mandira keep this state?" Karen asked.

"No, because the spirituality stored in a person's body is limited."

Alfred's eyes began to glow red, and he pointed at Mandira and continued to explain to Karen:

"I can clearly see the 'saliva' left by the bewitching demon that Pu'er said on Miss Mandira's body, that is, the formation. The function of this formation is to better preserve the spirituality in Miss Mandira's body and to increase the ease of control.

In the big direction, Miss Mandira's spirituality will still be in a state of continuous decline and loss, but the existence of the formation on her body will slow down this process.

In the small direction, the formation on Miss Mandira's body actually wears out faster and needs to be re-blessed every once in a while, like touching up makeup.

I have seen signs of peeling on Miss Mandira's formation. Maybe you can call Miss Mandira to come out and walk with you tomorrow and the day after tomorrow like tonight, but Miss Mandira may walk a little lame tomorrow, and walk a little strangely the day after tomorrow. The day after tomorrow, Miss Mandira may only be able to crawl behind you.

Later, with the complete dissipation of the formation on her body, she will probably be like those ordinary people who were "awakened" by you in the past. After waking up for a period of time, she will return to silence. "

"So, she can't continue to exist in this state?"

"Yes, because this is a consumable. I guess Miss Mandira should be born to be a spiritual person. This kind of people are actually very suitable for entering the religious circle to be purified. The bewitching demon in the circus probably saw this in her and chose her to be the object of his sacrifice and control, because Miss Mandira should be a very good material in his eyes. "

"What about Ms. Molly? Is Ms. Molly the one you "resurrected"? "

"No, no, no, it's not Ms. Molly who was resurrected by me, but because of family reasons, Ms. Molly has some special inheritance deep in her blood, although it is very weak, and even that family has been cut off for a long time, but..."

"Reversion to the ancestors?" Karen said.

"This description is very appropriate, probably. In addition, Ms. Molly had come into contact with a pollution source by chance, which caused her to be polluted a long time ago. Even if there was no car accident, she was destined to gradually become a demon after being deeply polluted.

I just took her limbs and helped to do some simple warming after she had a car accident. More importantly, I took care of her thinking consciousness so that she would not become mentally disordered and become a madman after the demonization was successful.

Fortunately, Ms. Molly has always been very emotional. Although she would scare some thieves to death without any seriousness, she generally has a set of normal logical thinking ability. The only flaw is that she is easily unbalanced emotionally.

However, people who are easily impulsive and emotionally out of control are also very common in normal people, aren't they? "

"In this way, Ms. Molly and Miss Mandira are completely different. "

"Yes, Miss Mandira is a true change after death and becoming a corpse, while Ms. Molly was already half demon and half human before the car accident.

In addition, the bewitching demon only controlled Miss Mandira's body through a simple formation, which allowed her to go on stage again and again with a little mechanicalness.

His method and your "awakening" are two different concepts, because in my opinion, your ability is more like the ability of the Order Cult Inquisitor, that is, to rekindle the spirituality remaining in the body, which is a natural "awakening" method, while the bewitching demon is like hypnosis. "

"Spirituality can only be consumed continuously?" Karen asked, "This consumption must be irreversible?"

Alfred fell into deep thought, and after a long time, he carefully gave a reply:

"In fact, you are more suitable to ask the black cat at home for such questions. I swear that the black cat at your home is definitely the most knowledgeable cat in the world."

"Some words, I think it is more appropriate to ask you, because I believe Alfred will always stand by my side."

"!!! "Alfred.

"Yes, Master, I will always be your most loyal servant. "Alfred took out a cigarette and handed it to Karen.

Karen waved his hand to refuse, and said, "You smoke it yourself."

"Okay, young master."

Alfred, who was very excited, lit a cigarette for himself.

At the same time, a new mural idea emerged in his mind.

When the great being wanted to smoke one day, his loyal servant Alfred lit the lighter for him;

God said, let there be light, and then Alfred helped God to light the light.

Alfred was almost too excited to control himself. He swallowed several puffs of cigarettes in a row and forgot to spit them out without noticing.

He is a very rational, thoughtful and wise person, but it is often this kind of person who, after really hitting his high point, will stimulate a strong reaction that ordinary people can hardly understand.

"Young master, what you just asked, I think this is not absolute. Perhaps I need to correct the incompleteness of the previous description, that is, some people who may be relatively powerful during their lifetime, after death, if the body is well preserved, the spiritual power will be sufficient.

In addition, the magic of the Order God Cult's "awakening" is to awaken the corpse, and this awakened corpse actually inherits part of the memory of the previous life to a large extent, that is, it regards itself as the person in the previous life.

Here there is a restriction, that is, after a corpse that was strong enough in life is "awakened", one is that he has deep accumulation, and the other is that with a certain degree of recovery of self-awareness in life, he can even learn to continue practicing like he did in life, to supplement himself...

It's just that the latter's practice will definitely have some specific changes, and there are also some problems of inadaptability, but in theory, there is a probability that it can be done.

But the problem is that the corpses that were strong in life are the raw materials that all major churches will actively recycle. After the core members of the orthodox church die, their corpses cannot be disposed of at will, and there will be people from the management office to recycle and place them.

Moreover,

The most important thing is,

The subordinates have heard... Well, this is also easy to understand;

That is, the stronger the corpse was in life, and the better the preservation of the corpse, the more difficult it is to "awaken" him.

Because this requires the caster to pay a geometric multiplier cost to maintain, which is no less than... another form of God's descent ceremony.

Take Master Dis as an example..."

After a pause, Alfred immediately shook his head and said:

"You can't use Master Dis as an example. Master Dis is a special extreme example that destroys the sense of substitution.

Take an ordinary Kosmos inquisitor as an example. It is actually not difficult for him to 'resuscitate' the corpse of an ordinary person.

It will be more difficult to resuscitate a corpse that was relatively spiritual during life;

Awakening a person who was a strange demon or a clergyman of other races or a belief system in life, the price will suddenly increase;

As for reviving a powerful being during his lifetime... he would probably fail and drain himself dry at the same time.

Just like the divine descending ceremony, the result of failure in many cases is that the performer of the ceremony will also become a failed sacrifice.

So, young master..."

Speaking of which,

Alfred suddenly got stuck, and then, with some difficulty, he turned his head to look at his young master, and then, his face showed ecstasy!

"That's not right, young master, you haven't experienced purification, you haven't entered the religious system, and you don't have your own belief system. You... are just an ordinary person to a certain extent.

But you are able to 'awaken' the corpse at this time, which means that your burden on 'awakening' will be much smaller than that of other inquisitors. "

To use an inappropriate analogy,

It's like someone with a monthly salary of 3,000 rupees, buying a radio for 800 rupees.

But my young master’s monthly pocket money is 300 rupees, and he only needs 80 rupees to buy the same radio.

Therefore, in essence, although the young master's income is low, the purchasing power effect he can achieve is the same.

This means that after his young master joins the workforce and earns a normal monthly salary, he can spend 3,000 rupees with ten times the effect of a person of the same level!

As for why the shop owner is willing to sell a radio to his young master for 80 rupees?

This is difficult to explain, but easy to explain;

Because the essence of human beings is to "deify" everything that cannot be explained in front of them,

It can only be said that my young master can rely on his identity as an evil god to swipe his face to get the lowest discount price.

Even more exaggerated and irresponsible to put forward a bold hypothesis... In fact, when the young master went to buy a radio, the shop owner simply confiscated the money for the radio. The reason why it cost 80 rupees was not for the shop owner, but for the young master. It’s just the taxi fare spent when taking a taxi to the store and back.

"So, is this why, Master, you want to take a walk tonight?" Alfred faced Karen, his butt already off the bench, almost in a semi-squatting position.

"I have been thinking about this question." Karen said, "If I really have a natural affinity with corpses, just like Pu'er said, I have a characteristic that allows the question to write the answer for me.

Does that mean that I can find some corpses that are better preserved and stronger during life to help him resurrect?

In this way, can I have a very powerful bodyguard?

Of course, what you gain is not only immediate combat power, but also experience, wisdom and the performance of certain special abilities. "

Dis promised himself that he would not die in six days;

But after I go to Wien, how can I ensure that I am still absolutely safe?

After all, if you are used to the absolute guarantee from Dis, you will definitely feel uncomfortable if you lose it.

Naturally, he decided to focus on his special ability.

This kind of corpse is difficult to find, firstly because of the preservation, and secondly because of the religious recycling system. Even the corpses of strange demons and other races are raw materials that their respective groups compete for.

But, if you look for it, there is always a chance that you can find it. Death is unpredictable. Who knows where he will die inexplicably, right?

"Master, your idea is so wonderful and great." Alfred was extremely excited. "When we get to Wien, my subordinates will immediately search for suitable targets and we will conduct experiments.

For example, some ancient tombs in Wien, the tombs of declining religions, and even the museum of the royal family in Wien also contain several well-preserved mummies, which we can all try. "

Karen nodded, that's what he was thinking.

"It's very late, let's go home." Karen said. The conversation has been finished. The specific execution after going to Wien will have to depend on Alfred. Even before he went to maintain the In advance, the sensible and obedient Alfred should have started planning and layout in advance.

The three of them returned home together. Fortunately, none of the family members were on the first floor, so Miss Mandira was able to walk in normally again.

For so many years, Pu'er was not allowed to talk to other family members except Dis.

The same goes for Karen. He couldn't take Mandira's body to open the eyes of his uncle and aunt. This would violate Dis's command.

Karen did not rush to the basement, but pointed to the coffin that would be used tomorrow on the morgue and motioned for Mandira to lie in it.

After Mandila lay down,

Karen stood by the coffin and looked at her and asked in her mind:

"Do you want to be buried?"

"It's...cold outside...it's...warm here..."

"OK."

Karen nodded, turned to Alfred and said, "Before you go back, throw a wad of money at the door of my living room and add a letter on it, saying that you want to bury Mandira."

"Okay, Master, I understand."

Karen reached out and gently knocked on the side of the coffin and said:

"Okay, now you can go back and lie down first. You will be buried tomorrow. I will come to see you off and mourn for you."

Mandira walked out of the coffin and walked straight to the stairs leading to the basement, but halfway there, she suddenly turned around and walked towards Karen again. After getting close, she pounced lightly and kissed Karen on the face, then turned around again and walked into the basement.

Karen was stunned in place, her fingers rubbing the place where she had just been kissed.

Alfred immediately praised: "Master, your charm is really unstoppable even by life and death!"

Karen turned her head to look at Alfred and said very seriously:

"She sat opposite us in the park and heard our entire conversation.

For example, I gave her the order to go back to the basement before, but she took the initiative to turn back and kiss me.

This means that we excitedly "awakened" a powerful corpse in life, and the first thing that corpse did after resurrection might be to slap both of us to death.

She was reminding me."
