Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

The monsters surrounding the altar were once important members of the “Moses Ascetics Society.” After the ritual began, they had to continuously chant the summoning incantation, which was very, very long, taking three days and three nights to complete.

When the incantation was completed, the real world and the starry sky would be temporarily connected, and the Evil God would be able to descend upon Backlund.

At the same time, these three people had to maintain the illusion from the Fourth Epoch ruins, the trap that could deceive even demigods and hold back four demigods, which required these three people to pay a huge price.

Unknowingly, they had turned into monsters draped in hair.

Layers of wrinkles appeared on the skin of these monsters, like overly obese people, with ropes strangling out layers of赘肉.

Their skin was bluish and dry, and only a human form remained, with few human characteristics left.

Only their eyes still flickered with wisdom and madness.

They were concentrating on chanting the incantation, as if only this matter remained in the whole world, and no one could disturb them.

Bernadette noticed that this array had very solid protection, making it difficult to interrupt the ritual from the outside.

After thinking for a moment, a phantom with a chubby head of a frog “reappeared” behind her.

Ribbit, ribbit~

The frog croaked twice, and one of the three monsters circling the altar suddenly became shorter and fatter, also turning into a frog.

However, this monster that had turned into a frog was still hopping around the altar, and could still continue chanting the incantation.

Bernadette frowned. This was the protection given by the ritual's array. No matter what they turned into, even if they died around the altar now, it was estimated that their corpses or souls would continue to chant the incantation.

The phantom frog behind her disappeared, and she took out a delicate wooden box, opened the seal of the wooden box, and took out an ornament inlaid with gemstones from it.

The middle part of the ornament was a vertical eye inlaid with diamonds. This eye emitted a pure light, giving people a very sacred and intelligent feeling.

Bernadette put it on her forehead, which made her suddenly become somewhat illusory. For a moment, her skin turned into a string of information streams composed of numbers, symbols, and graphics, but it immediately returned to its original appearance.

This was a Grade 0 Sealed Artifact held by Bernadette, corresponding to Sequence 2 “Sage” of the “Seer” pathway, so its name was “Sage Diadem”.

After putting on the “Sage Diadem,” Bernadette slightly raised her hand, and the mystical symbols on the altar suddenly floated up, as if they were mosquitoes falling on the altar, but now they were suddenly driven away.

Bernadette kneaded these symbols into a ball and threw them into a corner.

This operation made the altar shake obviously, and the symbol in the center of the altar representing the Descender suddenly lit up.

The symbol was very complex, composed of three parts. The middle part was the indicating symbol representing knowledge, surrounded by symbols representing mouth, ear, eye, spirit, etc., and the outer periphery was a series of dotted lines arranged in a radial pattern.

The general meaning of this symbol seemed to be that knowledge spreads through the mouth, ear, eye, spirit, and other means.

When this symbol lit up, new mystical symbols appeared on the altar without any mystical symbols, like weeds growing out.

The altar became stable again.

Bernadette was about to try to turn the altar and the three monsters into streams of information when she suddenly heard Audis say, “You can try changing the positions of a few mystical symbols.”

Bernadette was stunned for a moment, and then asked Audis, “How to change them?”

Audis looked at the altar carefully, then took out paper and pen, and quickly wrote and drew: “Change them like this.”

Bernadette followed the plan provided by Audis and changed the positions of six mystical symbols on the altar.

The altar quickly shook and became unstable.

At this time, the symbol in the center of the altar lit up again, trying to put the six symbols back to their original positions.

Bernadette immediately launched a confrontation with the power of the altar. At this time, the power of the altar was very limited, and in the end, the six symbols did not return to their original positions.

In the constant shaking of the altar, Bernadette noticed that the power protecting the altar had disappeared!

Of course, she would not miss this opportunity. Bernadette “reproduced” a Little Red Riding Hood, and when this red hat flew into the air, it split into four, falling on the symbol in the center of the altar and on the heads of the three monsters respectively.

The eyes of the three monsters immediately became innocent and naive. They would even believe a big bad wolf if it claimed to be their grandma.

Then, the “Sage Diadem” worn by Bernadette emitted a soft light again, and the altar and the three monsters immediately turned into information streams. These four information streams flew out of the array and landed at the corner of the street, turning into a constantly surging information sphere.

At this time, only that complex symbol remained in the array.

Audis shouted: “Hurry up! All the resisting forces on the altar have been eliminated! The array now needs more spirituality!”

With everyone's efforts, the light罩 at the top of the building gradually became more solid.

At this time, the information sphere piled up by Bernadette at the corner of the street expanded and contracted for a while, and then it was about to spread around.

Bernadette saw that the complex symbol in the sealing array was gradually dimming, so she “put back” this huge information sphere into the array.

Boom~

In the array, the complex symbol that had been wearing the Little Red Riding Hood could no longer hold on and exploded, emitting a yellow light.

At the same time, everyone heard an ear-piercing sound like a fax being sent.

However, the pollution in this sound had been blocked by the array, so after hearing it, everyone only felt tinnitus and dizziness, and soon it was fine.

The yellow light emitted by the explosion shone on the huge “information sphere” sent in by Bernadette, and it immediately shook and became very unstable.

Whirr~

The strands of information turned back into objects, the bricks, bones, and minced meat used to build the altar, they were mixed together and fell all over the ground.

……

Backlund, more than a hundred meters underground in the wharf area.

Horamick Haydn pulled his left arm, and it seemed that he took it off without much effort. The arm immediately straightened and a small piece of blue crystals appeared.

Horamick dodged the attack of the phantom in front of him, and then, like swinging a hammer, hit Alvis's phantom with his arm emitting a blue light.

Suddenly, the phantom disappeared.

At that moment, Horamick thought his attempt had worked.

Alvis's phantom can only hold back these four demigods, and it is difficult to cause them substantial damage.

So the four demigods have been trying various ways to deal with the enemy in front of them, but none of them have worked.

The next second, Horamick noticed that the other three phantoms had also disappeared.

“Someone found the real altar.” Horamick said while installing his arm.

This trap has been destroyed.

……

Backlund, Grayrock Street, East Borough.

As the symbol representing “Unextinguished Murmurs” exploded, the “night sky” in the air disappeared instantly, and the connection between the starry sky and the real world was completely severed.

The light罩 formed by the array became smaller and smaller, and it seemed that it was about to seal all the pollution. Suddenly, the shrinking process of the light罩 stopped.

Audis and others saw three people crawling out of the pile of debris in the center of the array.

To be precise, they were three spirits. In such a special environment, the three people who had turned into monsters quickly turned into evil spirits, and they were evil spirits with Extraordinary characteristics.

They glared fiercely at everyone around them, not blaming Bernadette for killing them, but hating these people who hindered their plan!

The descending ritual that had been going on for three days and two nights had failed. It was clear that only the last step remained.

无一错一首一发一内一容一 在一一看!

According to that Hidden Existence, as long as they entered that step, the descending array would begin to harvest the surrounding lives, forming a protection that even gods could not easily break through.

At this time, Alvis, one of the three evil spirits, was at the demigod level, and he alone supported the shrinking light罩.

Whirr~

Suddenly, an old-fashioned spinning wheel appeared in the array. This old spinning wheel turned by itself “whirr whirr”, and its spindle suddenly emitted a strange light.

This was the spinning wheel that Bernadette “reproduced”, the one that once put “Sleeping Beauty” into a deep sleep.

The three evil spirits who were about to launch an attack were all attracted by the strange light and forgot their purpose.

Alvis slightly raised his hand, and the spindle of the spinning wheel seemed to immediately understand his thoughts and appeared in his hand.

The moment this evil spirit touched the spindle, the three evil spirits immediately fell into a deep sleep.

The internal resistance was eliminated, the array continued to shrink, and soon, with the efforts of the Beyonders, all the pollution was sealed in a piece of glass on the window.

Audis quickly tore a piece of curtain from the first floor, padded the glass with the curtain in both hands, and carefully took the piece of glass down.

Then he took out the remaining spiritual materials and quickly wrote mystical symbols all over the glass, and finally wrapped the glass in the curtain and wrote a pile of symbols on the curtain.

After finishing all this, Audis finally breathed a sigh of relief and jumped down from the already dilapidated second floor.

Bernadette waved her hand slightly, and the upper layer of the building slowly fell, reassembling into a complete building.

She smiled slightly at Audis, but in the next instant, the smile disappeared.

Originally, Bernadette thought that today's operation would be the opportunity for her promotion. She was even ready to thank Audis just now, but in the next instant, her spirituality perceived that she still hadn't completed the promotion ritual!

As a result, Bernadette's smile vanished instantly, and she waved her hand at Audis with a displeased expression before turning illusory and disappearing from everyone's sight.

Audis didn't have time to talk to Bernadette in detail. He handed the curtain and glass in his hand to Ikanse: "The seal on this can last for 12 hours. After 12 hours, there may still be some pollution leaking out, so you need to reseal it in advance."

Ikanse solemnly took it: "Okay."

At this time, the other official Extraordinary individuals' expressions towards Audis had changed somewhat. This guy's array actually blocked the descent of the evil god!

Audis didn't stay here either. He tossed a handful of transparent powder towards the building, and the most core symbols of the array disappeared without a trace.

Then, he said goodbye to Ikanse and walked towards one side of the street.

The official Extraordinary individuals immediately made way for him and watched Audis leave with respectful attention.

Next, Audis passed the bewildered policemen and saw the bewildered or anxious people outside the street.

The reason they were bewildered was because they still didn't know what had just happened? Where did the danger come from?

They were anxious because their meager belongings were all in their rooms, and they were afraid that the police would never let them return to their residences.

"Haha," Audis suddenly laughed twice as he walked through the crowd: "Hahahaha…"

Then, looking at the confused people around him, he laughed loudly and strode away.

Audis took a carriage to the market and bought two geese, as well as a bottle of 6-pound red wine and some fruits and vegetables. Then he returned to the herbalist shop. It was already dinner time, and it was almost the busiest time for the herbalist shop.

After entering the shop, Audis handed Kyna a list: "Go to 117 Queen's Avenue, to Viscount Kelton's place, and purchase Extraordinary materials according to this list."

In the battle just now, Audis demonstrated a powerful array. It was believed that "Military Intelligence 9" would soon associate Audis with the "leader" drawing the "teleportation array" in the basement.

Even if they didn't prove that the two were related, they would definitely think this was a clue and begin to investigate Audis.

It was possible that Audis's identity couldn't appear in Backlund in a short period of time, so Audis decided to purchase a large batch of spiritual materials to prepare for future plans.

After Kyna left, Audis stood inside the counter, glanced at the shelves behind him filled with herbs, and the counter that already looked somewhat worn.

Just as he gently stroked the counter, a customer came.

Audis immediately smiled and said, "What would you like? Deep Sleep Flower, okay, please wait a moment…

"Yes, I've been busy with something lately and I'm often not in the shop…

"Yes, Kyna is a good young man, and he is now the manager of this herbalist shop… Hehe, yes, manager, for a herbalist shop, it's a fashionable title…

"Do you want me to grind the Deep Sleep Flower for you? … Okay, goodbye."

Then customers began to arrive one after another, and Audis took the herbs in an orderly manner, chatting with each customer.

Most of the people who came to the herbalist shop were regulars, and Audis knew them all.

Some customers would even sit in the shop and have a cup of tea. They would chat with each other for a few words. The reception area in the shop was prepared for them.

Some, seeing that Kyna's sister was not very skilled in handling herbs, would even take the initiative to help.

Audis watched all this with a smile on his face.
