Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 1150 Demon God
After a brief conversation with Victoria, Shangluo immediately called Fu Yuanshan again:

"Senior Fu, please bring that person back."

"Why, you can bring the dead back to life?" Fu Yuanshan's interest returned. "Oh, if I can bring him back for questioning, then my merit will be complete this time."

Although Shangluo has never been able to figure out what the standard of Fu Yuanshan's "merit" is, he thinks it's better for him to stay out of Fuyuandao's affairs. As long as he can bring the person back, the technology provided by Victoria can be used to torture him to get useful information.

"How do I bring it? Are there any special requirements?"

"Wait, let me ask." Shangluo connected with Victoria - he originally wanted Victoria to come out and speak, but Victoria was too lazy to come out, she just wanted to lie down and provide advice.

"It needs to be complete." Victoria replied, "I used the Death Judgment Magic on him. The more complete the corpse is, the better the effect will be."

"Senior Fu, they said we need to bring him back intact."

"That's perfect. He committed suicide by taking poison. He can't be incomplete even if he wants to. Wait, I have to walk slowly. If I walk too fast, I'm afraid it will be torn into pieces."

"How about we take it slow first? We can send a seaplane to pick them up?"

"No, I'll bring it back directly. I guess this kind of summoning spell should be used while it's hot. If it cools down completely, it won't be very effective."

"Indeed," Victoria responded, "We need to get it here as quickly as possible. Then I'll find someone to cast the spell."

"Eh? I thought you were going to do it yourself."

"I've already said that although I'm at the top of the mysterious feudal system, I can't cast magic myself. I only have theoretical knowledge - but I can find something else to replace me in casting spells. Wait, let me look for it. I remember I paid for my membership."

"member???"

"Yes. Summoning demons requires a price. Demons don't just come out of nowhere to work for you. But don't worry, just like before, I'll pay for today's demons. I've paid for this in advance, and I remember it was included in the package. I can summon other demons at a discount - these are what I'm best at. Constantinople is the center of the magic, and the magic is the art of communicating with gods."

"So do I need to make any preparations?"

"Yes. You need to prepare symbols of earth, fire, water and wind, which you should have. But it doesn't have to be too complicated, just something like that will do. Because the price has already been paid in advance, and the fact that the demon god can be summoned is already a foregone conclusion, so it's just a matter of going through the process."

"So I just need to prepare a foolproof version? There has to be a standard, right?"

"If you think it's okay, then it's okay - that's the standard."

"Okay. As expected, magic is convenient after you have paid for membership."

"But what kind of questions are you going to ask?"

Shangluo asked back: "What kind of questions can I ask? Is the person summoned real?"

"Well, this is more complicated. You'll know once you cast the spell - so, what question do you want to ask?"

"I've brought the person back, safe and sound." Fu Yuanshan walked in carrying a corpse with a dark blue complexion.

"Oh my goodness, why is it this color?"

"It's probably poisoned, so it changed color. The poison is pretty strong."

He threw the man to the ground. Surprisingly, the figure on the ground moved slightly. "Eh?" Fu Yuanshan squatted beside him and felt his pulse. "I felt it, it's definitely a dead pulse. How come there's still movement?"

He looked up at Shangluo and asked, "Can you try me like this?"

Victoria gave a negative answer: "As the name suggests, the magic of death judgment can only judge the dead, not the living. Ah, this is a miscalculation, a miscalculation, what should I do now."

"What miscalculated?" Shang Luo looked at her in confusion. "If he's not dead yet, just beat him to death."

"Ah, aren't you going to try a living person directly?"

"No need." Fu Yuanshan stood nearby. "Look at him, he's half dead. Even if he's revived, I can't judge him. It's better to just kill him. But I won't beat him. I'm afraid of losing merit. Shangluo, you do it?"

"I'm a kind person and don't want to do anything. Wait a minute, I'll call someone over."

Not long after, Ao Zang, with a bandage on his forehead, followed Shangluo in.

"King Ao Zang, do you think he can be a general with this appearance?"

"Not bad. I think he can be a shrimp. But he seems to be still alive. Do you want me to deal with him first and then interrogate him?"

There was a new Victoria in the room. He had never seen her before, but somehow, Victoria's demeanor and movements always made him feel very familiar, exactly the same as when Shangluo was on the stage in the meeting. He couldn't see the right and wrong of this, so he simply stopped watching.

"Then please wait a moment, I'll have someone take care of it." He waved his hand backwards, and two seemingly weak servants came in. With unexpected strength, they lifted up the half-dead assassin, one on the left and one on the right.

There was a muffled sound outside the door, and two people came back with the assassin.

"Wulian Tianzun." Fu Yuanshan said, "Fortunately, this merit is complete."

"So, what should we do next?" Shangluo asked Victoria.

"Next, just perform the ceremony." Victoria looked around, "Does anyone want to watch? If so, please wear a special amulet. If not, please step away for the time being."

Fu Yuanshan was the first to go out: "I'm not very curious - I do have a feeling that this thing doesn't seem very auspicious. I'll go out first."

"Well, I'll excuse myself, too." Out of similar considerations as Fu Yuanshan, Ao Zang also chose to avoid the topic.

"Tsk, isn't there anyone who wants to witness the miracle of Roman arcane?" Victoria was a little disappointed, but the ceremony still had to go on.

Shangluo had already prepared the spellcasting props - because Victoria said that just a hint would be enough, so Shangluo used a chicken feather instead of wind, a conch shell instead of water, an agate bead instead of earth, and finally a candle instead of fire.

"Is this okay? I feel like this is a bit too casual, right?"

"It doesn't matter whether the ceremony is luxurious or not. What matters is whether the ceremony can be successful." After saying that, Victoria took out a piece of paper that looked like a check or a bill from her bag and threw it over the magic circle.

The next second, the earth, fire, water and wind moved together. The candle burst into flames, and smoke filled the conch. A frail old horse walked out of the smoke and flames and looked around.

"The fourth demon god Samkina, welcome."

Victoria conveyed a general goodwill to the demon, who returned the greeting briefly and immediately began to work. The horse's hoof stepped over the assassin's head, and the false breath was focused into his abdomen. He was resurrected - temporarily.
