Chapter 380 The Consequences of Not Using Instructions
From the moment the countess turned the topic to Nicole Ceylon, the latter's mind went blank.
The sound of something cracking sounded in the girl Nicole's head.
Listen carefully.
It turned out to be the sound of a shattered worldview.
Before this, the young girl Nicole had never thought that her father, Serp Skov, who allowed her to be born in ten months of pregnancy... was actually a time-limited illusion created by a miracle.
There were too many questions popping up in my mind at once.
The blood descendant left behind by the illusion, so does she have a biological father, or does she not?
Is her existence a real person, or is she an illusion capable of thinking on its own?
What happened next caused the girl Nicole's worldview to collapse even more.
"My Nicole, my daughter."
"You always thought that you discovered the truth of the matter and tried every means to stop my attempts. For this reason, I had to use illusions to create an obedient personality out of thin air to control your words and deeds."
Countess Ceylon's face looked slightly complicated.
"actually……"
"That Nicole is who you used to be."
"Now you...are the new person who appeared out of thin air and competed with my daughter for her body."
Pupil earthquake.
The girl Nicole's mentality collapsed on the spot.
The impact of these words was too great for her.
She always felt that she was the one who noticed that her mother had gone astray.
For this reason, she had to find ways to find foreign help to stop her mother.
Co-author She is actually the outsider in this family, the insider who disrupts the situation!
The Countess of Ceylon did not mean to blame Nicole, but instead showed a gentle smile:
"However, my daughter, your appearance actually proves that I am on the right path."
"The illusions created by mortals cannot have their own thoughts and cognition."
"They will only obey my instructions, like Mr. Winnekes, the old butler who has served in the castle for many years."
"You develop your own ideas, your own character and your own philosophy."
"This shows that you are no longer a pure illusion, you are a living...person."
"Since I can achieve success on you, if you give me some more time, I will definitely be able to replicate the same success on my dear Sepp!"
"So, outsiders from the Church of Seeking Knowledge, please return the artifact to me, okay?"
…
The tone is gentle and the words are polite.
But the meaning left no room for rejection.
Peter was nervous, but his face remained as calm as possible.
Because he wants to reject the "request" of a level 5 strong man head-on!
"Your Excellency the Countess."
"The Lord we believe in has given us guidance. The collapse and fall of the Goddess of Illusion is about to come. Every attempt you make accelerates this process."
"Keep trying, it will be irreversible!"
"If it's just to make up for the obsession in your heart, there must be other ways to do it in this world!"
"But it definitely does not include - at the cost of losing a god and killing thousands of ordinary people!"
"What's the difference between you doing this and those crazy cultists who have taken refuge in the evil god?"
The Countess of Ceylon stubbornly shook her head.
Stretching out his slender fingers, he hooked towards the jet-black hexagonal gem held in Pet's hand.
Peter felt a huge pulling force coming from him, and the gem seemed to have a soul of its own and flew away uncontrollably.
"I won't give up!"
"In order to change the reality, over the years, I have prayed again and again to the god named Resti who once provided help to me, asking Him to come to me again so that I can witness His blessings again. miracle!"
"I am willing to give everything I have for this!" "But He never appeared again, not even once!"
"The great power is in His hands. Since He is not willing to share it with me, then I will find a way to get it myself!"
"I can confirm that the artifact has decisive power, and his authority must be related to the artifact!"
"Maybe - the moment He falls, I will be promoted to a new illusory god, possessing all the power that belongs to Him!"
Having said this, the countess's face was full of enthusiasm!
She's not crazy, she's just going to make a crazy attempt!
At the cost of a god's tainted corruption, try to replace him!
…
Peter sighed heavily.
"In that case, I'm sorry, Your Excellency Ceylon."
"We have a reason why we have to stop you."
Neat and high-pitched prayers rang out!
This is a magical ritual performed by believers seeking knowledge!
"O Lord! Please guide us in the direction. May the light of your truth shine on the earth!"
"In the name of your devout believers, I offer you a great sacrifice belonging to the gods. Please bear witness!"
The jet-black hexagonal gem that had already flown into the Countess's hands suddenly erupted into a turbulent dark light!
Like a black hole that absorbed all the light, with the gem as the center, the entire meditation room instantly fell into complete darkness!
The concept of "light" seems to be completely stripped away at this moment.
Endless darkness became the only theme in this space.
The process didn't last long.
In Peter's perception, only a few minutes had passed.
Gloomy light began to flow into the room again, providing some slight illumination.
The countess subconsciously tried to hold the "artifact" in her hand, but her hold was empty.
The exquisite and standard hexagonal gemstone disappeared completely without a trace at some point.
He stretched out his hand nervously.
No response.
The Countess of Ceylon was completely panicked this time!
Because she has never seen anything like this!
Since the two men in black robes brought this "artifact" to her, she has also conducted many studies and attempts.
This jet-black gem has extremely special properties.
Even a level 5 Archmage's full attack could not leave any trace on it.
Flooding, fire, acid erosion, lightning strikes, weathering, all kinds of methods will not work.
Moreover, according to the method told to her by the two men in black robes, as long as she uses the corresponding gestures and special spells, the artifact will fly back to her immediately.
In the past, Nicole Ceylan tried to steal the gem directly, but it was of no use because the countess could recall it at any time.
But this time the situation is different!
The "artifact" is really missing!
After the burst of dark light that absorbed all light, the gem was completely lost.
"What did you do?!"
The countess became visibly panicked.
The expressions on the faces of Pet, Gale, Brandon and Miranda were slightly strange.
Because this is not the first time they have seen such a scene.
"In a sense, maybe this is the consequence of your Excellency, Countess, not getting the instructions for using this 'artifact'..."
"I'm afraid its real purpose...is not for you to use it to leverage the authority of a god."
