Chapter 6 Summoning from Another World
After dinner, Raphael went to the window to observe for a while, but found nothing unusual downstairs. So he arranged for the apartment owner, Markle, and his subordinate, Carter, to take turns watching over Audrey.
Markel had already prepared a room for rest, and Raphael went back to his room to rest first.
The room prepared for Raphael contained a bed and a recliner.
Raphael lay down on the recliner and used his spiritual senses to check. He found that the potions from the "madman" and the "criminal" had been almost completely digested.
This kidnapping of "The Diamond of Backlund" was not only "crazy" but also a meticulously planned crime, so both sequences of potions were well utilized.
Raphael yawned, and without caring whether "Miss Susie" was still there, he closed his eyes and began to rest.
Although no battle took place today, Raphael remained highly vigilant, ready to flee or fight to the death. After several hours, he was exhausted and fell asleep almost immediately.
However, even in his sleep, his spirit remains alert, and he can immediately wake up if any unexpected situation occurs.
Suddenly, Raphael, in his sleep, felt his spirit being drawn by a force.
After a slight pause, Raphael seemed to regain some of his rationality, and in a daze, he was pulled by that force.
But the more he pulled, the more Raphael felt his spirit uncontrollably detach from his body and fly off to an unknown place.
Raphael tried hard to open his eyes, but he was unable to regain his vision.
It seemed like a second or two had passed, or maybe half a minute, when he heard a chanting incantation in his ear.
Immediately afterwards, Raphael finally "opened his eyes" and could see things.
He first breathed a slight sigh of relief, then immediately scanned his surroundings.
At this moment, Raphael was in a dark, damp cave. The cave was very spacious, like an underground plaza, and had many traces of artificial decoration.
In the center of the cave, there was a circular altar. In front of the altar, there was a priest wearing a long robe with wide sleeves, chanting incantations with a solemn expression, while also making some dance-like movements.
Seven priests were kneeling around the altar, prostrating themselves on the ground in devotion, echoing the high priest's chanting.
In the center of the altar, there is a wooden chair with a man chained up on it.
The man had hollow bone needles stuck in his body, and the altar was covered in blood, as if the bone needles had drained all of the man's blood.
After seeing all this, Raphael finally came to his senses. He even thought the chanted incantations were a nice chorus.
But the bloody scene on the altar changed everything, making Raphael immediately realize that this was a bloody ritual, and the man in the center of the altar must be a sacrifice.
The next second, Raphael realized that he had been summoned by this bloody ritual.
At this moment, he was in a state similar to a spirit, but his state seemed to be more secretive than that of an ordinary spirit. At least, the chief priest and other priests around the altar did not notice him.
At this moment, the incantation seemed to reach a crucial point; the priest's voice rose and his movements became faster.
Raphael recognized the other person's voice, but before he could think about it, he suddenly felt a tremendous downward force, and his spirit drifted uncontrollably toward the man locked to the wooden chair in the center of the altar.
Realizing that he could not resist, Raphael gave up and allowed the ritual to manipulate him.
Because he had already become an Extraordinary Being, he wasn't afraid of things that were hard to explain. He just couldn't understand which blind person had summoned him, a Sequence 8.
Theoretically speaking, this kind of summoning ritual should summon some powerful and strange beings!
Just as Raphael had predicted, his spirit sank into the body of the man in the center of the altar within a few breaths.
hiss~
Raphael felt pain, and then he saw bone spurs sticking out of "his" legs and stomach...
His spirit was perfectly in sync with his body, as if it were controlling his own body.
"It's a success!" The high priest, dressed in a wide-sleeved robe, exclaimed with delight upon seeing the man on the altar move slightly.
Raphael weakly raised his head and finally realized that the language the other person was speaking was very similar to the Chinese he remembered!
Although it wasn't Mandarin, he could understand it.
Then he noticed that the clothes worn by the chief priest and the other priests were somewhat similar to the robes of ancient people in his memory.
This discovery surprised Raphael. When he first arrived at the cave, he thought it was the language and clothing of the Southern Continent.
He had heard that the native languages of the Southern Continent were not from the same language family as the languages of the various countries of the Northern Continent, and that their cultures were also very different.
At this moment, the high priest directly in front knelt down before Raphael: "Greetings, Demon Lord!"
Raphael opened his mouth; he was certain that the other person was indeed speaking Chinese!
Has he been summoned back to China again?
Raphael couldn't help but complain in his heart: This time travel experience was terrible! I just digested the Sequence 8 potion in Rune and was just starting to have some decent abilities, and now I'm back?
He then looked at the high priest in front of him, and Raphael's lips suddenly twitched. In this situation, of course he had to pretend to be a powerful and mysterious being!
Otherwise, these people would have no idea how to deal with him!
He cleared his throat and asked, "Who are you...?"
Only when he spoke did Raphael realize that his voice was extremely hoarse and weak: "...Why did you summon me?"
The high priest bowed his head and said, "I am Chen Qingzhi, the leader of the Jizhou branch of 'Dark Lodge.' Please lend us a hand, Demon Lord."
The priests around the altar didn't dare to breathe and quietly prostrated themselves on the ground.
"Oh?" Raphael asked in a condescending tone, "What trouble have you encountered?"
He didn't know what "Dark Lodge" was either. But asking it like that would leave no room for doubt.
The high priest, Chen Qingzhi, said, "The Qi Sect is preparing to secretly kill us Blood Sect disciples! Please, Demon Lord, help me."
Raphael thought to himself: There's nothing I can do to help.
But in order to understand the current situation, Raphael still looked around in a grand manner, as if to make sure he was aware of the surrounding environment, before he said, "I am not the Demon Lord of this realm, and I don't know if the 'Blood Sect' and 'Qi Sect' are any different from the Blood Sect and Qi Sect I know."
"And please tell me the specifics of your dispute..."
He smiled and said with a slight smirk, "Don't treat the Demon Lord as omniscient and omnipotent."
