Pastor's Tantra

Aiwass did not expect that he would meet Merlin during this promotion ceremony.

As a half-dream demon, Merlin has half blood beyond the path, so he is proficient in the art of ritual; and he is also a mage, and eventually became the apostle of Weizhe.

But when it comes to the establishment of Avalon, Merlin still cannot be bypassed.

Aiwass even told the students the story of Merlin and the Lake Fairy Vivian falling in love and killing each other.

At the same time, the holy sword-the red-handled sword temporarily stored in Aiwass's hand was also sealed by Merlin. The establishment of the Palace of Silver and Tin, the Eye of Avalon and several other legendary artifacts are also related to Merlin.

From this perspective... Merlin's importance to Avalon is even much higher than that of "Gawain" who presided over Aiwass' promotion ceremony before.

However, Aiwass has more urgent things to tell Merlin right now...

"Don't be impatient yet."

Merlin stretched out his hand and touched Aiwass' forehead.

Even though he has become an apostle of the Nine Pillars God, he does not look serious at all. Completely devoid of the majestic aura of a deity, he still looked like a human being - even though he had never been a human being before becoming an apostle.

The legendary mage wearing a blue robe and carrying a sword at his waist said with a smile: "I know you have something to say... so I didn't be late today, but got here early. It's because of this that you were chosen by me. Came here in advance.

"Don't worry. None of them will come until our conversation is over."

...So it turns out that I was pulled into the first place by cheating methods by the examiner?

Aiwass was relieved at first, and then felt a little inexplicably lost.

It turns out I'm not that strong...

"Aren't you a dream demon?"

Aiwass first asked, "If you have something to say, why don't you just come to me in your dream?"

"It's easy to leave evidence. I'm Weizhe's apostle now. It's not convenient for me to take care of Arthur's affairs. It's easy for me to fall into the trap and be hunted down. Besides, you don't need to use a ceremony to pull me down...I'll come here by myself. If I look for you, wouldn’t that mean I’m looking for a classmate for myself?”

Merlin said with a smile, looking like a fox: "In comparison, the dream world is safer. No one can peek into the content of the promotion ceremony... As long as there is a slight time difference, there is no safer place than here. ”

The apostle seems to be in trouble...

Aiwass suddenly had such an idea in his mind.

But Aiwass quickly dismissed the thoughts in his mind and went straight to the point: "Do you still remember the Shadow of Avalon ritual you once constructed? It was the resurrection ritual prepared for Lancelot I."

He originally wanted to remind Merlin that there was an error in that ritual.

As a result, Merlin pondered for a moment, but then showed a free and sunny smile: "I'm sorry, I forgot. It's not important anyway."

"...That's Lancelot's resurrection ceremony!"

Aiwass was a little shocked: "Can you forget this?"

Then if something goes wrong, wouldn't Lancelot simply be unable to be resurrected?

If the fake death fails, it will directly become real death. That's really a big job.

Tragic news, Lancelot I, the founder of Avalon's traditional performing arts and intangible cultural heritage of suspended animation, died during his first performance in his life...

Aiwass suddenly realized that this Merlin didn't seem very reliable.

So he explained in more detail, trying to awaken Merlin's memory: "'As long as the blood of twenty-one Du Lac died in murder, the ancestor can be resurrected. He will descend into his body again, holding the quilt in his hand. The blood awakens and releases the sealed holy sword Alondette'. Now Avalon has advanced this ritual to the final step, and the number of victims has reached twenty, with only one person left to complete."

"oh--"

Merlin drawled and said as if he was suddenly aware: "I seem to have remembered it. But isn't this good? Is there any problem here?"

"The problem is that Miss Vivian tampered with the ritual you left. Now the connection end of this ritual is mistakenly pointed to Yingtiansi. Once the ritual is successfully launched, the person who is resurrected may not be Lancelot Du ·Lark, but the queen of the Kingdom of Shadows."

"Don't worry, it won't happen."

Merlin said with a smile: "Tiansi will not come to the material world so easily. Otherwise, what you have to worry about is not foreigners, but Xiong Tiansi."

"The situation is different. Huan Tiansi may be involved in this ritual. He has a ritual that can bring great beings from the dream world to the material world."

Aiwass no longer cares about the issue of keeping intelligence confidential. Although he couldn't explain where the information he got came from, it was a rare chance for him to meet Merlin, so he still hoped that Merlin would solve the problem quickly.

Even if the bug cannot be fixed, at least shut down the ceremony first——

After hearing this, Merlin finally became a little more serious.

He thought for a moment and then asked: "The ring of the tail?"

"right!"

Avas was immediately delighted - it would be a lot less troublesome to avoid explaining the Ring of Endings ritual to Merlin.

"Ha," Merlin just smiled, "I won't ask you why you know this ancient ritual... Do you really think that woman Vivian can modify my ritual without any trace and make it without any traces? In the wrong case, using the conditions I set before, it runs silently, and without any teacher, can it just meet the effect of the Ring of Ending Ceremony? At the same time, the intensity of the ceremony is high enough to bring down Ying Tiansi, and the ceremony can still With permission from Huantiansi...

"Don't forget, she is the Lake Fairy of the Path of Love and knows nothing about the path beyond."

Hearing Merlin's understatement, Aiwass was slightly stunned.

He quickly reacted: "You mean...this matter has something to do with Huan Tiansi?"

"I didn't say anything. This is all your own guess. I am not responsible for these remarks."

Merlin used one button three times without any delay.

Avas's expression suddenly became subtle.

Didn’t you just say you had forgotten it a long time ago...

For some reason, Merlin gave Aiwass a sense of déjà vu as Mycroft. Although the two of them have different paths, different races, different personalities, and appear to have completely different weights... However, the ungraspable feeling of slickness is so similar.

But if Merlin meant it, the problem with the "Shadow of Avalon" ritual might be related to Huan Tiansi.

...Does Lancelot know about this? Where is the Crown Master?

No, the Crown Master probably doesn’t know. If the crown master knew about it, he should have reminded Sophia.

If the Crown Master didn't know, why would Merlin know? Or is it that he knew it but didn't tell the Crown Master?

Thinking of this, Avas suddenly understood - it was not Merlin who knew that this matter had anything to do with Huantiansi.

I'm afraid it's because Merlin didn't fully believe Aiwass' words from the beginning. He was subtly wary of Aiwass.

What he said subsequently were all reasoning based on "what Aiwass said is true." In other words, he actually does the same thing as Sherlock.

Although he expressed an attitude of "this comment has nothing to do with me", he seemed to be implying that this is the truth of Aiwass. But Merlin didn't say death, so if he guessed wrong, he could tell Aiwass innocently, "I told you I didn't say anything"...

It's completely impossible to guess what he's going to do.

What an old fox...

Aiwass felt like he had learned another trick.

"Then at least," Aiwass added, "Mr. Merlin has to be responsible for the giant prince Wolfram's affairs, right?

"You said you wanted to keep him back then. Now he has escaped from prison. He escaped from the prison you designed... and now he has caused a lot of trouble to Avalon."

Although the regular army has been dispatched. Aiwass added in his mind.

Merlin said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I will help..."

"What exactly?" Aiwass wanted a definite answer.

"You will naturally know by then. Will I still lie to you? Oh, it's getting late. I'd better let those people in."

Merlin said this and suddenly disappeared behind Aiwass.

When he appeared again, he turned into a huge stone sculpture and appeared in the field.

——Not a young man with black hair, but an old man with white hair.

Before Aiwass could complain, a new person appeared on his right side.
