I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

With the help of [Ritual Control], Lloyd did not spend much time preparing three sets of rituals, and then integrated them into a not too complicated array.

The main function is to provide early warning, distort attacks that may fall on you, and record and trace the source of the attack.

The first and third functions are within the scope of ordinary rituals, and the middle one is a patent of the [Distortion] system.

Compared with the same type of rituals that can have a protective effect, this group of protection with [distortion] may not have the strongest effect, but it is the lowest cost, the simplest to deploy, and the most convenient to use.

Apart from the possibility of some strange effects on the protected person, it is the most cost-effective among this type of protective ritual, and is very suitable for Lloyd's current 'plug and play' situation.

As for that small disadvantage, it is definitely not a problem for Lloyd.

After making these preparations, Lloyd went to take a bath, then lay down on the bed and ran to play with Elolo.

Of course, in order to allow myself to sleep peacefully and not fall into strange [deep thinking], I naturally used the three-piece sleep aid set I redeemed before.

In this way, Lloyd slept peacefully until dawn, then returned to the [Thinking Realm] habitually, helped Hiltina share the mental pollution of today, and evenly distributed the 10 attribute points obtained last night and this morning to [ Reason] and [Spiritual Power], pushing the total value of these two attributes to 825 points.

Someone came over to help, but was restricted by the embodied saint from opening the portal at will...

Then he sat up from the bed, practicing ancient breathing techniques and checking the rituals deployed last night.

If [story] is used to target him, it will easily affect the outcome of the gamble...

Lloyd was very surprised by this.

He is indeed a graduate of Mizkatok. He is really smart, but it is a pity that he is not using it on the right path...

Although the whole picture looks unchanged, the internal temperature control and comfort-improving rituals such as calming the mind have all been tampered with, and strange powers have been exerted on them. It should be some kind of special curse. .

Lloyd didn't know much about the [Curse] system. He didn't know what the specific effects were, but it was definitely not a good thing.

Could it be that his conscience found out and he stopped recruiting outsiders?

Or are you afraid of the effectiveness of the [contract] and don't dare to mess around?

But then, Lloyd immediately noticed that something seemed wrong in this room. Something seemed to have changed?

How to deal with it?

According to the character of Lloyd, who has always been a tolerant and kind-hearted young man, and considering that the other person is his schoolmate, he naturally wants to make the big thing a trivial matter. He just wants to kill this guy directly and it will be over, instead of writing an anonymous letter to target the person behind him. Organized.

Lloyd quickly and carefully analyzed the changes caused by these rituals.

But the problem is that I also signed the [Contract], so I can't directly attack that guy...

Um? Actually safe and sound? That graduate from the [Curse] department actually didn’t take action?

Their original functions have not changed, they are still the simple effects of improving livability, but once these functions are turned on, the curse attached to them will be activated at the same time to affect themselves.

So he subconsciously looked back at the landscape paintings on the wall.

So it turns out that this method was used to circumvent the restrictions of the [contract]. It did not directly curse me, but affected the environment around me. It was really insightful.

If this is the case, then we can only make a fuss about rituals?

Well, since you want to harm me through rituals, let’s have a ritual showdown!

Lloyd smiled and took out a lot of ritual materials from his storage bag, which he had accumulated through various channels.

It just so happened that I had never been able to find a place to use the twisted rituals I had learned through the [Ritual Control] skill, so I happened to use them today.

So Lloyd didn't even bother to eat breakfast, so he got busy and started 'painting' in the blank area next to the landscape paintings, and arranged some portable ones in other areas of the room.

Soon, the whole place was decorated for him in a "fancy" manner, with symbols, patterns, textures, etc. everywhere, as well as several more incense and candles.

Thanks to the subtlety and magic of [Ritual Control], after all his efforts, he did not cause too much damage to the original comfort rituals, which made Lloyd very proud.

It feels like a world-famous painting has been carved on an egg.

Sure enough, my artistic attainments are very high, and I am worthy of being an artistic young man healed by sunshine.

Lloyd was very satisfied with his 'work' and kept nodding.

As for the functions of these rituals...

As long as it is not activated, it has no effect.

But as long as the [curse] criminal dares to take action, the specially arranged candles in the room will light up on their own, and then the entire ritual will begin to operate.

It should be a big surprise for the other party, right?

However, due to the restrictions of the [Contract], Lloyd could not take the initiative and could only leave the choice to the other party.

Classmate or enemy? Take your pick!

........................

"Are you ready for your curse?"

"The preparations were completed last night. Everything went smoothly and no one noticed."

"Very good. You are indeed a top student in Mizkatok. Then everything will proceed as planned. Today's story is about that old bastard Jefferson. You must wake up as quickly as possible."

"I know. At the same time, I will also use the curse to help the other two wake up, and also lay the groundwork for tomorrow."

The graduate checked the plan with Meyer again.

The strategy they formulated can be said to be extremely insidious. They actually planned to use the power of the curse to sink the other two players forever in Mayer's [story].

According to the loopholes deliberately left in the [Contract], this will allow Meyer to win directly.

So no matter how long the first two [stories] are, it will hardly affect the final result.

But once you sink forever in the [story], you will be equivalent to a brain-dead vegetative state.

In some ways, this is more vicious than directly killing people...

So like in the previous gambling game, the three butlers were not so ruthless. Once someone stayed in the [story] for a long time, they would take the initiative to end the [story] and release the person.

In fact, graduates themselves don’t want to do things so well and bear two more blood debts.

However, there is no way, since he murdered that classmate, he has already embarked on this path of no return.

I can only say sorry to those two opponents.
