As if on purpose, Snow approached Bernadette at a very slow speed. As the distance gradually narrowed, Snow could clearly see the complicated emotions on her face.
Finally, when the two faces were so close that they could almost feel the warmth of each other's lips, Bernadette's body suddenly turned into an illusory flow of information. In just a blink of an eye, she disappeared into the room.
Leaving behind a voice that was trying to be calm——
"I'll go find you tomorrow to get the charm."
"Tsk, tsk, you ran away..."
Seeing Bernadette disappear, Snow didn't feel any disappointment. After all, this was a restaurant, so he wouldn't be in such a hurry.
"Invincibility starts with sacrificing the ancestor"
Furthermore, if we just capture Huang Beibei, there will always be a sense of threat, which is not good.
Returning to his seat, Snow took a sip from his wine glass and continued to eat the so-called Intis palace dishes. Huang Tao was probably not very good at cooking in his last life, except for a very few "stir-fry dishes"
, there is almost no trace of cauliflower.
Of course, in terms of taste, it's pretty good.
…
After returning home from the Serenzuo restaurant, Snow did not hesitate and immediately began to arrange the ceremony.
Compared to the previous simple ritual of using men's perfume to fool himself, this time he did it very seriously.
He took out two candles whose wicks were mixed with his own hair and engraved with the paradox mark, and began to take out the items needed for the ceremony one by one, including a carving knife, a small bottle of mercury, and a four-leaf clover distilled from
Essential oils, and a small amount of spiritual materials.
Although he had habitually sealed the entire basement, at this time he still used the traditional method of mouth, using the ceremonial silver dagger to guide his spirituality, sealed the altar, and then lit two candles with spiritual friction.
Essential oils and spiritual materials were added to the candle flame. Snow took out three small plates and placed them in front of the candle that represented himself, and began to recite in ancient Hermetic language:
"paradox!"
"You are a traveler from far away time and space."
"You are a contradictory spiral of logic and wisdom."
"You are the reflection of knowledge, the backside of truth."
As the name is recited, the flame of the candle representing "God" begins to rise, and a subtle connection is established between the white horse and the candle flame.
Snow slightly let go of his spirituality, guided the pre-budgeted angelic power, and continued to recite the incantation:
“I pray to you;”
“I beg you to give me strength;”
"Give me the power to complete the 'Ship of Theseus' spell."
"Paradox, please transfer your power to my spell..."
"Four-leaf clover, an herb belonging to the realm of paradox, please transfer your power to my spell..."
As the mantra was recited and spirituality slowly flowed, Snow could feel that the power of White Horse and Feima was flowing into his body in a different way than before.
That strange feeling, as if he existed anywhere, but also as if he didn't exist anywhere, permeated his spirit and almost broke the balance of his self-perception.
This is also the fundamental reason why Snow uses such a complicated program to mobilize his abilities, because if this spell involving existence is directly borrowed, it is likely to interfere with his own existence.
Without hesitation, while maintaining the knowledge that "my existence is real", Snow poured the mercury in the test tube into three small plates. As the liquid mercury spread, he immediately took out the container.
There was a test tube containing Bonova's spiritual material, and the liquid that seemed to contain countless knowledge was poured onto the mercury.
The spirituality of paradox spurted out from Snow's fingertips. Under the influence of this power, the mercury wrapped Bonova's spiritual material and slowly turned into a coin-like solid.
The carving knife in Snow's hand immediately came out, and he followed the spiritual power to outline the required runes on the solidified mercury. The whole process was particularly fast due to Snow's strong physical fitness. After a while, three emoticons were engraved on the front. The Child's Eye, with a talisman like a sailboat constructed of runes engraved on the back, appeared in front of him.
With the end of the ceremony, the spirituality pouring out of the white horse and the non-horse gradually converged, and the three mercury charms also began to converge to the spiritual brilliance. It seemed that it had completely lost its original flowing feeling and looked as if it had been oxidized. old silver coins.
Setting the ancient Hermetic word "ship" as the opening spell, Snow quickly completed the ceremony.
He did not rush to check the status of the spell, but began to enter shallow meditation, and through self-suggestion, he continued to deepen his understanding of his own existence.
It sounds outrageous to believe that you are real, but after becoming Carl's Dragon, Snow's state has become like the "pink transparent fire-breathing dragon" in that story, which cannot be falsified or verified. Existence, in a sense, what he is now is essentially a lie constructed by "three people become a tiger", and the person this lie deceives is himself.
If he simply considers his own maintenance, Snow can completely seal his memory about the side effects, or simply ask Miss Justice to perform psychological intervention on him, but the problem is that this side effect also involves the subsequent promotion to sequence two - [Schrödinger's Cat] ceremony.
This ritual is essentially different from the previous three promotion rituals, because it cannot reduce the difficulty through long-term layout.
As for its content, it can be said to be very simple——
[Died in front of a large audience.]
It sounds weird, but it's actually even weirder, because the essence of this ritual is not about "death" at all. Even if it is a fake death, as long as it can make the audience think he is dead.
But the really deadly part of this ritual lies precisely here.
As I said before, Snow's current state is actually no different from the lie maintained by "Three People Become Tigers". In other words, when a large number of viewers think that he is dead, even if it is a fake death, it will become a real death, and the only The best way to fight is to have a stronger cognition of "he is still alive" than these cognitions.
But when witnessing his death, most of the audience should have the perception that "this man is dead", and how many people can be sure that he is still alive at this moment?
And this cannot be informed in advance, because then the condition of "death" will not be met.
As for hypnotizing another group of people, they kept thinking about "Snow is not dead" during the ceremony... Just kidding, this is a promotion ceremony, who knows what will happen after drinking the potion, if the mental state is not up to standard , then you really can’t die anymore!
So to be on the safe side, he must be able to use his own cognition to overwhelm the cognition of a large number of viewers, and this large number, converted to ordinary people, is at least 100,000 people!
Of course, if Adam were replaced, he alone would be more than enough, but that would obviously be no different from seeking death.
