Chapter 350: Response (Seeking Monthly Votes)
"Gone mad?"
Vernon let out an exclamation.
Aaron's expression remained unchanged as he added fried eggs, grilled bacon, and vegetables to his sandwich, placing them between two slices of bread to make a simple meal.
"Yes, a very clever technique... They had Lailian read a disguised, dangerous document... making the attack look like an accident, which wouldn't even attract much attention from the local Investigation Bureau." Liliyat took a deep breath and slowly explained.
"How is that guy doing right now?" Vernon looked at his daughter with concern.
The hunters of the 'Blood of Decay' have arrived; what follows may be a bloody battle!
"Whether or not to descend Divine Grace is up to my Lord... but if we don't do it, there is no hope at all."
The Attending Physician had already issued the diagnosis, and her husband was about to be transferred to 'conservative and observational treatment,' which in reality meant being abandoned, and he might even be sent to a mental hospital later!
For a housewife, this was simply the sky collapsing!
"Ma'am, there is a lady who wishes to see you!"
"Hmm... this distance is too close, completely within the response range of the 'Furnace,' and there is no need to use the 'Fool's Crown' to amplify the response range."
"Hello, Mrs. Yasudang, I am from the 'Nest.' Your husband should have told you some things, right?"
Aaron shrugged: "As for how to treat him, the Triple Ritual of prayer and sacrifice is the most basic knowledge of Occultism, isn't it?"
Liliyat put on a confident expression, though she was panicking inside...
The 'Spirit of Falsehood' was a notoriously unresponsive Hidden Existence; ever since she began to believe in it, she had prayed almost every day, and only recently had it given a response.
Liliyat took out a Green Leaf brooch and handed it over; this was the proof of her identity.
Liliyat's expression remained unchanged, perhaps having already guessed as much, while Vernon muttered: "It's too dangerous here, let's run!"
It must be said that the Non-human Grade 'Shadowless' is truly the profession most skilled at escaping.
Is the great 'Spirit of Falsehood' willing to grant Jiusu?
Even Vernon himself felt a desire to accelerate his own advancement.
Outside the ward, Mrs. Yasudang, watching all this through a small window, kept wiping her tears with a handkerchief.
"Your believer beseeches your great power, praying for your gaze..."
"Let her come over!"
And some materials needed for the Ritual were also transported into the ward.
"I pray that you grant the light of Jiusu to save Mr. Lailian Yasudang..."
This is the 'Triple Ritual Method': one Candle represents oneself, one Candle represents the beseeched Hidden Existence, and the last one represents Lailian.
After speaking, she looked at Aaron again, wanting to hear his opinion.
At this moment, a female bodyguard approached and said in a low voice.
And Lailian was just a heretic!
Looking at the terrified Lailian, Liliyat took a deep breath, used clean salt to set up a Spirit Wall, and then lit the three Candles one after another.
A phantom, layered sound of prayer suddenly rang in Aaron's ears.
However, compared to before, he was no longer that anxious.
"And then, the blood hunters hiding around the hospital?" Liliyat thought of another aspect: "If they disturb the Ritual, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
Liliyat dripped Rose essential oil into the Candle representing herself and began to pray in Spirit World Language:
"Spirit of Falsehood wandering in the unknown, Absolutely Neutral Existence, Silent Observer..."
After all, having witnessed Aaron's methods, he knew very well that the other party could take the two of them and run anywhere in the world at any time.
The area outside the ward was sealed off by bodyguards, and even the small window for visitation was blocked.
Not far from the hospital, on the rooftop of a five-story residential building.
Mrs. Yasudang wiped away her tears and saw the bodyguard leading a delicate-looking young girl wearing glasses over; she couldn't help but look puzzled, as she did not recognize the person.
Inside a special ward, Lailian was wearing a hospital gown, his sleeves tied behind his back, his whole body curled up in a corner, shivering.
St. Catherine Hospital.
Aaron finished his breakfast unhurriedly, pulled out a napkin to wipe his palms, and suddenly laughed: "You seem to have forgotten the might of my Lord... A mere mortal tainted by pollution and driven to madness... If He is willing to bestow His radiance, everything can be solved."
"It doesn't matter; I will hunt them down when the time comes. By comparison, they are using Lailian to set a trap to hunt you, while I am using you to attract attention to hunt them!" Aaron comforted her: "Relax... we have one Non-human and one Non-human combat power on our side... it is definitely a variable they did not expect!"
"Our mission, is it just going to fail like this?" Liliyat puffed out her cheeks, feeling somewhat unwilling.
His Spirituality expanded, and he immediately saw Liliyat praying inside a ward.
Hearing this, the expression of Mrs. Yasudang's female bodyguard changed slightly, and she whispered a few words into Mrs. Yasudang's ear.
'Come on, Liliyat, you can do it.'
A glimmer of hope immediately appeared in Mrs. Yasudang's eyes as she grabbed Liliyat's hand: "Please, you must save my husband, please, you must save him..."
"Not necessarily."
"Please stay strong, Ma'am... Problems that secular doctors cannot treat may not be impossible for the Hidden Realm!"
"I need a quiet environment, I cannot be disturbed... and... give me that document."
"Yes... my husband said you could be trusted, but... he has already..." Mrs. Yasudang's eyes were about to overflow with tears again.
He gave a slight hint, and seeing that Liliyat had made up her mind, he couldn't help but nod inwardly.
Half an hour later.
"He has been transferred to the hospital, but I feel those doctors are helpless against this; in a while, they will announce that the treatment is ineffective, and then he will be transferred to a mental hospital!" Liliyat's expression was grave: "In that case... the biggest source of income for our Parliament will be cut off."
To be honest, this was also a test of his own ability to descend power; otherwise, he could have completely used the ability of a 'Sage' to balance the pollution for that unlucky guy.
"Not only that, those hunters are probably monitoring the hospital right now..." Aaron sipped his hot cocoa and smiled: "Lailian was attacked, and the Extraordinary who was secretly protecting him might also appear... Their true goal is to hunt you!"
Liliyat smiled and said, "I am a Healer of the 'Tower'. You might not understand, but your Extraordinary bodyguard should know a thing or two about this."
Everyone retreated, leaving only Liliyat and Lailiang behind.
"However..." Liliyat was clearly somewhat hesitant.
Aaron nodded slightly, acknowledging the request.
The next instant, he felt a wisp of his own 'Secret Source Power' surge out, following the channel formed by the Prayer and sacrificial Ritual, and vanish...
