The appraisal department, as professionals, quickly issued a professional appraisal report after a brief inspection.

Item: Mist Crystal Ball

Threat level: None (no threat to anyone other than the parties involved)

Sealing method: None

Classification: Common

Function: Medium for the desecration ritual of spirits

Description:

A common item made by injecting mist crystal powder into a transparent sphere.

Because mist crystal powder can shield peeping and isolate the flow of spirits, and the higher the concentration, the stronger the effect, it is often used to test spiritual vision.

Due to its special nature, it is also used in the taboo rituals of Doomsday Cultists.

The desecration ritual of spirits is the most evil of all taboo rituals. The practitioner needs to obtain unconditional love from the recipient and do something with someone other than the recipient that he has never done with the practitioner and wants to do the most.

Record the entire process as the core of contaminating spirits.

The more real and detailed the record, and the stronger the emotion, the better the effect.

Desecrate this love and place the record in the nearest but invisible place to the recipient.

The more the recipient wants to peek at this record, the faster the spirit will be eroded.

After a period of time, the ritual is completed.

The ritual effect can be activated using the predetermined language of desecration.

In the activated state, the recipient will be directly controlled by the practitioner, but if the distance between the two is far, the induction of the spirit will be interrupted, and the control will be released.

In the unactivated state, the pollution caused by the desecration ritual to the spirit is very concealed, extremely difficult to detect, and almost impossible to be dispelled or purified.

The only way to lift the curse is for the recipient to know this record. The more detailed and direct the knowledge, the faster the pollution will be purified.

If the recipient continues to keep this record for a certain period of time, he will permanently become the practitioner's slave, not restricted by distance, and there will be no way to lift the curse.

After reading this report, Rode was chilled all over. The Doomsday Cultists were simply the cancer of humanity. No wonder this ritual was called the most evil.

The Black Priest put the record at the bottom of the mist crystal ball, and Karamon's spiritual vision was only 10, which he may never see in his lifetime.

If it weren't for his arrival, Karamon would probably have become the Black Priest's slave permanently.

It was also fortunate that Rode lost so much integrity, indirectly allowing Karamon to know the record, and thus undoing half of the control.

That was why he was able to save Karamon's life in the end.

Suddenly, Rode remembered something and asked, "What about Raisin's suicide?"

Moxo put down the report and said in a deep voice, "According to the message returned from the church's medical center, Raisin's spirit was cursed strangely, and the curse team has not yet identified its type."Keith suddenly interrupted, "I remember Raisin's teacher said that they suffered an unexpected defeat at Ghost Lake during a hunting mission. Raisin was depressed for a while after he came back, but he soon cheered up. His teacher didn't pay much attention to it. Could it be related to this?"

Moxo frowned and became serious.

"If that's the reason, then the Pollution Sect's layout is not trivial. What do they want to do?"

Everyone fell silent for a moment.

Rode was nervous. He had told everything except for his own special circumstances, which were closely related to the Pollution Sect's ritual.

At this time, Manolobana, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up, "Have you seen the image inside the crystal ball?"

The appraiser shook their head, "We don't have anyone with that high of a spiritual vision."

"Is there a way to extract the image?"

The appraiser still shook their head, "No, once the Mist Crystal Ball is sealed, it becomes an unchangeable whole. Any destructive behavior will cause the information recorded by the mercury to be lost."

"Then how did you determine that it was the medium for the Blasphemy Ritual?"

"There are traces of the unique marks of the Blasphemy Ritual left on it. We won't make a mistake."

Manolobana sneered, "Traces can be forged. And we only have one person here who can see the information inside. How do we prove that he is not talking nonsense, deliberately fabricating, and maliciously misleading?"

Rode frowned, "Are you also a stone and wood core?"

Manolobana suddenly became angry and shouted, "I suspect you can't see it at all! You're lying!"

As soon as the words were out of his mouth, he regretted it.

But Rode didn't give him a chance to take it back and immediately said, "Can't spiritual vision be measured? Test it and you'll know."

Moxo's eyes flickered and he said to the appraiser, "Go get a high-level Mist Crystal Ball."

The appraiser turned and left, and after a moment, brought back a golden Mist Crystal Ball.

"This is the highest level of Mist Crystal Ball. It can measure up to 99 spiritual vision, and the specific value can be accurate to the unit digit."

Rode asked casually, "Isn't there 100 spiritual vision?"

"No, we have no way to obtain 100% concentration of Mist Crystal Powder."

"Okay, let's begin the test. Use your spiritual vision to observe the crystal ball and tell me the pattern inside."

Moxo and Keith stared at Rode intently, while Manolobana looked a bit uncertain.

Rode's thoughts moved, and his Soul Eye opened.

Moxo praised, "You don't need any auxiliary actions to activate spiritual vision. It's really strong."

Manolobana remained silent with a gloomy expression.

Rode turned his gaze to the crystal ball. The chaotic mist became unreal, like floating shadows. He quickly saw the first image.

"A deer jumping in the forest."The appraiser nodded, "50 spirit vision."

He lightly touched the crystal ball with his hand.

Rode saw the second image again.

"A black cat chasing a mouse in a shabby room."

The appraiser nodded, "70 spirit vision."

Moxo and Keith smiled obviously.

Manolobana looked gloomy.

The appraiser touched the crystal ball again, and Rode saw the third image.

"A white ghost horse flying in the air."

The appraiser's expression became serious. He didn't believe a new student could have such a high spirit vision.

"80 spirit vision."

Moxo and Keith's smiles became even more obvious. Moxo kept smoking his cigarette, while Keith rubbed his hands excitedly.

Manolobana's expression completely sank.

The appraiser didn't stop his movements and soon Rode saw the fourth image.

"Mushrooms like trees, blue, red, green, purple, white."

Sweat broke out on the appraiser's forehead, and he couldn't maintain his calmness anymore.

"90 spirit vision."

Keith suddenly jumped up, feeling like he had a big balloon in his chest, but he didn't make a sound, as if he was afraid of scaring away this rare opportunity.

The appraiser touched the crystal ball for the last time.

Rode saw the fifth image.

It was a golden sun rising from the end of the sky, and the golden light it emitted made the picture a bit blurry.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "A sun, a golden sun."

The appraiser widened his eyes, looking like he had seen a ghost. It took him a long time to speak.

"99! The highest spirit vision!"

"Great!"

Keith suddenly shouted, the balloon in his chest burst, and the huge sound shook the dust on the roof, almost making Rode deaf.

"Another complete spirit viewer! I have never seen such a young complete spirit viewer. We have a new star rising!"

"Good, good, good, good..."

Moxo repeated the word like a broken record, not noticing that his cigarette had burned his fingers. He stared at Rode's eyes as if they were on fire.

Manolobana suddenly asked, "Can it predict the answer in advance?"

The appraiser's expression was like he had eaten a fly, and he answered, "This is a new mist crystal ball. He is the first test subject, and no one except the maker and the tester knows the answer."

Manolobana said lightly, "But there is a possibility, and if there is an absolute spirit viewer among the Doomsday cult, it is not good news for us."

The appraiser closed his mouth.

Moxo and Keith were not disturbed by his words and still had smiles on their faces.

Keith suddenly asked, "Little Roro, how do you feel about the city defense army?"

Rode scratched his head, "I'm not sure.""Very good, right? Do you have any intention of joining the City Defense Army after graduation?"

Rode cleared his throat and said clearly, "I'm not sure."

"Yes, you do! Great, I'll write it down for you. After you graduate, you can join the City Defense Army directly. I'll arrange the position for you..."

Manolobana coughed heavily.

Keith turned around suddenly and said seriously, "Lord Gula, you're tired. Go back and rest. Leave the rest to us."

Manolobana said coldly, "With the protection of the Holy Fire, I'm not tired at all. I think we should continue to discuss the doubts about the sewer incident."

Keith scratched his head and said discontentedly, "What's there to discuss? It's just a bunch of crazy dogs who want to perform some crazy ritual in the sewer. Don't worry, I will find them and crush their heads one by one to avenge my guards."

Manolobana sneered.

"It's definitely not that simple. As far as I know, the Black Priests use the mist of spiritual energy to cover their whole body, preventing their true appearance from being seen. If your spiritual vision is really that strong, you should have seen her appearance and know who she is. Why didn't you mention this just now?"

As soon as this was said, Moxo and Keith turned their gaze to Rode, waiting for his explanation.

We are bit.ly/3iBfjkV, find us on google.

Rode took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "The reason why I didn't tell you immediately is that this matter is quite complicated and involves sensitive people. I need to make everything clear..."

Manolobana impatiently interrupted, "Just tell us who it is."

Rode said directly, "Alexis, the governor of the second largest district in the outer city."

As soon as the words fell, Manolobana firmly denied, "Impossible! Alexis is a well-known good governor, she cannot be a member of the Apocalypse Cult. You can't slander her just because she provided a lot of evidence against you."

Rode sneered, "You can bring her here now, and we can confront her face to face."

Manolobana sneered, "Moxo, please send someone to bring her here now. I want to expose his lies face to face. Alexis' promotion went through my strict review and she cannot be a member of the Apocalypse Cult. Since taking office, her work performance has been outstanding and no one can slander her."

Rode frowned, "You reviewed it?"

Manolobana said arrogantly, "The entire Internal Affairs Adjudication Office knows that I reviewed it."

Soon, the person sent out to find Alexis reported back.

"Alexis is missing!"

"We found the Apocalypse Cult's robes and ritual items in her house, as well as decayed corpses and skulls."

Moxo and Keith stood up in an instant.

Keith stared at the iron mask and said, "I heard you reviewed it?"

Manolobana remained silent for a few seconds and said calmly, "Don't talk nonsense. This is slander."
