It is impossible for the girl to find the evil god in the textbook

The silver knife had already been consecrated by Ella. She lay on one knee and tapped the cup lightly with the tip of the knife. A gust of invisible wind blew by, and the bedroom had formed a closed spiritual space.

To deal with wraiths or curses, you should use sun-related spells, which are different from my magic attributes, and it may be a bit difficult to use.

Ella thought, placed the sunflower petals and gold flakes that symbolized the sun in the center of the small altar, and began to pray,

"The ever-burning sun of the astral world,

You are sovereign in the sky,

You are the great glory of all spirits. "

The three candles on the ground began to burn violently, the temperature in the room began to rise, a golden light appeared out of thin air, and Ella's forehead began to sweat.

"Please turn your attention to the believers, dispel the curse in old Mrs. Morris's body, and save this poor person.

Sunflower petals, channel the power to my mantra,

Gold flakes, please channel your power into my spell.

......"

Ella recited the prayer silently, and she felt a cold and wet smell mixed with the smell of Thames River sewage. She instinctively rolled along the ground, and the police officer's hat was scratched off by something. She was contaminated by the cold and wet breath and slowly turned into thick water. .

The girl rushed forward and hit the wall of the cup again with the silver knife. A large amount of magic was drawn out of her body. The wind was strong inside the room, and the golden light became more and more dazzling.The cold and clammy breath poured into the cup, making the clear water cloudy and smelly. Looking carefully, there was a disgusting creature in the sewage in the cup. It looked like a rotten mouse, but it had big growths on its body. Big and small green eyeballs.

Ella breathed a sigh of relief, cleaned up the debris on the ground, wrapped the mouse in paper and put it in a glass bottle.

Old Mrs. Morris' complexion began to turn rosy, her breathing became long, and she might wake up soon.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ella used magic to peek into old Mrs. Morris' memory. Before she fell into a coma, she seemed to see a few people hidden in the robes. They raised their hands under a certain bridge hole, doing Weird movements, the unfortunate Mrs. Morris just took a look at them and got a little cursed.

Ella felt an emptiness in her body and almost fell to the ground. The magic ritual drained a lot of her magic power. After taking out the Eye of Hermes and comparing it for a moment, she felt a little more comfortable.

Ella pushed open the door and went out. Lawyer Morris was walking back and forth anxiously in the living room. When he saw Ella going out, he rushed to meet her.

"how is the situation?"

"There is no serious problem. Madam needs to rest and will wake up soon."

Morris walked into the bedroom in disbelief, took a look, and returned to the living room excitedly. Even a fool could see the change in his mother.

"It's unbelievable, Miss Williams! How you did it."

Ella hid her weakness and smiled,

"It's just that the environment of the Thames River is too bad. The old lady smelled the bad air inside, and her lungs couldn't accept it. I gave her some medicine."

"It's amazing. I think doctors in London should retake their licenses. They can't even have a child. Ah, sorry Miss Williams, I didn't mean you."

After bidding farewell to Attorney Morris, Ella and Jack returned to the carriage, and the girl told the bar owner in detail what she had learned.

"So things are not that simple. I will send the samples to Kraft, and Mr. Jack, we must find those who performed the ceremony, no matter what they want to do! This needs your help."

Chapter 26 "Family"

"Dear Professor Kleist, how are you doing recently, I sincerely wish you a happy holiday in the South, please send my regards to Professor Yusuf and Adolf.

London is much colder than Scotland, and next year I may settle in Glamis, and maybe this will be my last New Years in London.

May I ask if you have received the sample I sent, I am not mature enough to use the magic ritual of envoys, and I am worried that there will be omissions on the way.It was a monster I found in an event in London. It parasitized an old man in the form of a curse. In the psychic, I found that someone held an evil ceremony in the Whitechapel area of ​​London. I recorded it in the crystal ball Do you know what kind of ceremony this is?

London may become dangerous in the future. I am worried that I will not be able to deal with this incident with my own strength. I request you to send a team of law enforcement officers to London.

Your student, Ella Williams. "

Ella put the quill on the table, and handed the iron box and letter containing the remnants of the curse to the young messenger.

The messenger took off his silk top hat and bowed to the girl. His movements were funny, and then his body gradually became transparent and disappeared in a ripple of light and shadow.

Jack watched the whole process from the sidelines and was amazed. It was of great benefit to him to watch Ella perform a complete magic ceremony.Wild magicians like him who accidentally mastered one or two spells lack real systematic knowledge of magic. Generally speaking, they can only explore the unknown on their own, but for magicians, the unknown is always the most terrifying thing. of.

Most wild magicians will only rely on a few spells they master and give up exploring the mystery, so being able to watch formal and standard magic rituals up close is very valuable.

"These are the messengers belonging to Kraft School of Witchcraft and Magic. They look really... oh, a little unique."

"Actually, after you communicate with them carefully, you will find that they are very cute creatures."

cute?

Old Jack's expression became extremely rich in an instant. He glanced at Ella strangely, and ended the topic of aesthetics rationally.

"Is the matter you said really so serious that we and the police can't solve it?"

"...I'm not sure yet, but the magic ritual I saw in the memory of old Mrs. Morris must have taken effect. It may have been a sacrifice by a cultist or something else. In Kraft's incident record, similar incidents are harmful None are too young. Mr. Jack, I suggest you keep an eye out for the disappearance of the longshoremen, I fear they may be used for human sacrifice."

Ella expressed helplessness about this. Some blurred images in her memory could not provide any important clues. She frowned, feeling very uneasy.

Jack nodded in understanding, then smiled,

"This is not something that can be done in a day or two. We only need to investigate the anomalies in Whitechapel District and wait for Crest's law enforcement team to arrive and hand these over to them, right? Think of something happy, I have sent People have brought back those two little devils you mentioned, and it will be the New Year this week, so we should celebrate it."

Ella forced a little smile, yes, it's useless to worry too much about things beyond her ability, she and the bar owner Jack must not be able to deal with a whole dozen heretics.The letter has been sent, now do what you can and just wait patiently.

The girl counted out ten five-pound notes to pay old Jack, which was the agreed price.

Ella followed the bar owner to the lobby. George and Meckle were sitting awkwardly by the side. The tall and thin bartender took them to the "Old Man" bar and told them that it was Ella Williams's bar. Meaning, but they never saw the mother's young colleague.

Jack's name is quite important in the slums of Giethoorn Street. Gangsters or orphans who make a living by stealing know his name. George has never been here once except for the time when he boldly asked for help for Merkel's illness. Needless to say, there is a place for Merkel.And the guests around were all tall men, which made them a little scared.

The two children finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Ella appear from behind the bar. At least the bartender didn't lie to them.

"Sister Ella!"

With a cry of joy, Mekel threw herself into Ella's arms, almost pushing the emaciated Ella against the counter.Ella ruffled the girl's hair. She thought of herself as the elder of George and Maykel, but forgot that she was not a few years older than them.

"Mekel, George, from today onwards you don't have to continue living in the bridge hole. Mr. Jack is my friend, let's live here temporarily. When I clean up the place in Scotland, I will take you over. From now on we will It's a family."

The two children were stunned. It seemed like a dream to them. After the death of their mother, the person who should have died in the factory fire suddenly appeared as a magician and brought them a new life.They no longer need to worry about hunger, no need to worry about the cold, no need to steal for a living, no need to compete with wild dogs for food, this is simply a miracle described in fairy tales.

"We're not dreaming, are we?"

Mekel pinched her brother's arm, fearing that this was a dream that would break like soap bubbles.It is said that if you feel pain in your dream, you will wake up, but Mekel was afraid of pain, so he pinched his brother.

George gritted his teeth in pain, showing a somewhat distorted ugly smile.

"It seems that this is not a dream, Mekel, my arm must have been pinched red by you."

Ella just watched them quietly from the sidelines, her expression relaxed.

After a while, Ella stood up, and she told the two siblings that she needed to go back to her uncle's house to get her luggage.

The "Introduction to Ritual Magic" and several sets of clothes are still in Henry's house.In addition, Ella also felt that she needed to say goodbye to that family. This was not to worry about their feelings. She was just worried that if Henry had a free time one day, he would think about his niece who had not seen him again for a long time. Ding Dian might have called the police because of her disappearance.Even if it wasn't for her safety, he would probably have done the same in order to be able to receive the alimony in a legitimate way.

Ella stopped a carriage and paid a shilling. Because of the recent heavy snow, the price of public carriages has also begun to increase. Even the driver is unwilling to brave the heavy snow to make money during the New Year. More, and that's fine.

The carriage stopped at No. 304 Smith Street. Looking at this two-story villa with a courtyard, Ella felt that she might be here for the last time.

The Henry family was enjoying dinner at this time, and Ella came to the second floor without saying a word, packed her not too much luggage, and stuffed it into the suitcase.Then for the first time, he walked up to the dining table dignifiedly, pulled out the chair, and sat down.

Uncle Henry and Aunt Triss froze for a moment, stopped the knife and fork in their hands, and looked at Ella who was sitting upright at the other end of the long table.Cousin Will didn't raise his head at all, and put food into his mouth expressionlessly, without stopping.

Ella looked at each of them one by one. Henry's expression looked a little astonished, but it quickly changed back to a businessman's smirk. Triss's face was a little annoyed and puzzled. She might not be able to understand this girl. Why did his courage suddenly become bigger?And Will seems to be a little different from before, his normal appetite should be a little less than this, but it doesn't matter.

Ella took a deep breath and said calmly,

"I'm here to say goodbye. I will leave here tonight, and I shouldn't come here often in the future."

"Why so suddenly?"

Henry was taken aback for a while. He thought the relationship between himself and his niece had eased a little the day before yesterday.

Tris had a gloating expression on his face.

"Let him go Henry, some people are not born to live in luxurious houses, they are more suitable to sleep on the street with beggars."

Ella glanced at her, her expression unchanged, and said,

"I already have a new residence, and the alimony sent by my father is enough for me to live a prosperous life. Maybe you have taken it as your natural income and forgotten that it belongs to me. Uncle Henry, you should Yes, Professor Yusuf told me all this."

Henry couldn't maintain that smirk anymore, and opened his mouth wide, but as if thinking of something, his face slowly turned gray, while Tris's face turned livid in an instant, and he yelled loudly,

"How dare you say that, we are a family!"

At this time, Will was still stuffing food into his mouth, making his mouth bulge. His chewing and swallowing speed seemed to be unable to keep up with his movement of putting food into his mouth, and some scraps of meat kept falling from the gaps between his teeth.

"Don't eat it!"

Tris slapped his son on the back of the head, causing him to spray his mouthful of food on the table.Those disgusting food residues made her scream again.

Will's face was still expressionless, but his cold eyes made Ella feel strange. It didn't look like the cousin he knew well.

He turned his head to look at Ella, and said word by word,

"You-want-to rob-property-of-my-property?"

Ella finally showed a disgusted expression, she left the dining table, picked up the suitcase, opened the door and left without saying a word.

Ella looked at the snowflakes gradually rising in the sky, and sighed softly. She didn't want to make the final parting so ugly.

The street fell into darkness. Ella looked back and forth across the street, but found no carriage. It seemed that she had to wait a little longer in the snow.

At this moment, Ella suddenly felt a pain in the back of her neck and fell to the ground. Someone grabbed her by the throat, put her knee on the girl's back, and pressed her down heavily.

She instinctively wanted to chant the spell, but the sudden tightening around her throat made it difficult for her to breathe and unable to concentrate on building the spell model.

"You want to - take - my - property!?"

That was the voice of cousin Will.

Then, the hands tightened slowly, and Ella struggled, but her strength was much smaller than that of the opponent, and she felt that she was slowly losing consciousness.

Chapter 27 Unexpected Rescue

More and more air was squeezed from the girl's throat, Ella's eyes gradually began to blacken, and her head became dizzy.She tried hard to move away from the palm holding her throat, and her nails drew long bloodstains on it.Ella stretched out a hand to feel for the revolver hidden in her waist, but it was difficult to take it off for a moment.
