I upgrade points in the Holy Inquisition

Chapter 66 66. Audience with the Saint

Lloyd held the bell in his hand, was stunned for two or three seconds, and then hurriedly said:

"Uh...thank you!"

"Hehe~you're welcome, it's because you help me complete the work every day, I don't want to owe you a favor..."

Jiu Mengzi still spoke in that weird tone, and added:

"By the way, you have to return it to me after each use, and you are not allowed to take it home! I am the worst woman in the world, very stingy."

"Okay."

Lloyd agreed and said again:

"Thank you for your help, Senior Metis."

The other party didn't say anything more, and started to drink again.

Lloyd walked out of the library with the bell, and couldn't help but think of Jiu Mengzi.

Although this guy is crazy, never puts down his drink, speaks in a weird way, and is difficult to communicate with, and always talks about the "worst woman", she does not have the good figure that a bad woman should have. She is short and can't even tell the front and back.

But when the library was attacked before, she was the first to stand up and stopped Lloyd behind her.

Later, when Wei Ya got into trouble, she also came to visit and checked her hand by hand before leaving.

Later, she also attended my promotion ceremony and left some unpleasant congratulations.

Finally, today, she lent me this precious bell for free...

Is this the worst woman in the world?

"Actually, she is a very good person, right? It's a pity that she has a mouth..."

Lloyd commented with a smile and decided not to cry, and decided not to call her a drunkard anymore.

Wait for a chance in the future to see if I can have some physical contact with her to relieve her madness.

In fact, he had asked Weiya about Metis before, but Weiya just perfunctorily said a few words and didn't say much. He had never seen them interact with each other on weekdays, and it was obvious that they didn't get along well.

Forget it, I won't interfere with women's affairs. I'd better concentrate on studying and work hard to become stronger.

Lloyd shook his head and went to the military supply department to apply for several cheap ritual materials such as incense, candles, and potions.

Then he returned to the office and set up the ritual according to the memory of the inner ghost Williams.

[Concentrate] can become the most popular ritual nowadays, so it must be easy to use. Moreover, Lloyd has the help of [Ritual Control], and he arranged it in a few steps.

The lit incense and candles were placed in the corresponding positions, and then a light blue ink was diluted with a potion containing a trace of spirituality to draw a few simple patterns on the floor and wall.

Then sprinkle the crumbs of missing flower petals and put the bell in the center of the desk.

Finally, he reluctantly opened the deepest compartment of the filing cabinet, took out the statue of the saint with only the outline of a girl, and placed it next to the bell.

This simple ritual was completed.

Unfortunately, his understanding of this ritual was not enough, and there was no way to make it portable.

Then, Lloyd adjusted his chair so that he could maintain the most comfortable and relaxed sitting posture, and then gently fiddled with the bell on the table and injected some spiritual power into it.

The whole ritual began to work, and the bell spun like a gyroscope.

A subtle bell sounded in Lloyd's mind, and his mood relaxed, but his attention became more and more focused. All kinds of distracting thoughts were thrown behind his mind, leaving only one thought -

Study, study hard, and focus on studying!

He then controlled his consciousness, returned to his [Thinking Field], and began his first [Meeting with the Saint].

This place was still the apocalyptic scene, dim, desolate, lonely, and the spiral towers still stood, as if slowly rotating and twisting in the dim light.

Only Lloyd's feet could have some different colors, still the lush grass, blooming with unnamed blue and white wildflowers, dotted with a few coral-like decorations.

Under the influence of the ritual, Lloyd was not in the mood to appreciate the scenery, so he sat cross-legged and looked up at the nearest double-helix tower.

White and dead gray, gauze and bandages, two colors and two textures, twisted and intertwined like the structure of DNA, winding up.

Lloyd stared for a few seconds, and gradually heard two sounds coming from his ears.

What he heard in his left ear was a soft murmur, a bit like a woman's voice, whispering gently in his ear.

What he heard in his right ear was a strange mumbling, low, hoarse, unclear, and exuding a strange flavor.

Two voices floated into his ears, intersected in his brain, and gradually merged into some fragments.

This made Lloyd feel a little tingling in his brain, but he could still bear it, just a little uncomfortable to the extent that he didn't sleep well.

Then, the panel also started to join in the fun and began to issue prompts:

[Ding~ Madness value +1]

[Ding~ Skill fragment +1]

After more than ten seconds, there was another sound:

[Ding~ Madness value +1]

[Ding~ Skill fragment +1]

Under the interaction of these three sounds, Lloyd felt his head itchy, as if he was going to grow a brain again.

The eardrum was also itchy, as if something was scratching it gently.

The skin also began to itch, as if there were small insects crawling.

He began to gradually forget the time, and there was no thought of "studying hard" in his mind. He just greedily accepted the knowledge that poured in.

He didn't know how long it had been until a sharp and piercing ring suddenly rang in his ears. He suddenly opened his eyes and returned to reality from the [Thinking Field].

"Hu~Hu~ It's been three hours?"

Lloyd first looked at the pocket watch, and then looked around.

The incense and candles had burned out, and the patterns drawn on the walls and the ground had dried up and disappeared. The bell on the table no longer rotated and lay there quietly.

The statue of the saint facing him still only had the outline of a girl's figure, without details such as facial features, but it revealed a gentle look, looking at him calmly.

Lloyd's originally relaxed mood suddenly became tense, and his mind began to involuntarily wonder whether he should say hello?

But after two seconds, the look disappeared.

Lloyd immediately let out a long breath.

It seems that the Saint noticed me again this time...

But she still seemed to have noticed nothing, and her eyes were still so gentle.

This time I passed the test again.

Lloyd hurriedly and respectfully put the Saint's statue back to the deepest part of the filing cabinet and locked it tightly.

Then he called up the panel and reviewed the mess of prompts before.

The Madness value was not much, only a dozen points in total, which was too thin for a mosquito.

The skill fragments were also added by a dozen points, and they were combined into a skill:

[Enough skill fragments have been obtained to unlock the skill - Veto Declaration (Twisted), LV1]
