Miss Witch's Forbidden Book Secret
Page 173
The girl grinned wildly, revealing her fangs, and looked at the elf, saying:
"I want to make a third wish!"
The elf's smoke instantly swept across the horizon, and the elf, who hadn't made such a high-stakes gamble in a long time, became excited and frenzied.
"as you wish!"
"I want to have the means to see, touch, and kill ghosts!"
Tia's gaze fell upon Jeremiah's reflection.
Although this senior didn't do anything worthwhile and was completely fooled by her, when she later passed on the "Book of Transformation" to her, she did indeed explain the three requirements for an alchemist.
The third basic requirement for an alchemist is:
—The ultimate and perfect rationality and courage.

Upper deck.
The upper deck is what you'd conventionally understand as the ship's deck, including the mast, winch, ship's bell, bow toilet, etc.
As soon as Abdullah reached the deck, he looked around and saw that it was still dark.
A few stars could be seen in the sky, and the moon was very bright, but it was still pitch black on the ship, and nothing could be seen. Abdullah was relying entirely on his prophetic abilities to find people.
But it's strange that there's a moon there.
The moon was full, and it was so bright that Abdullah thought he had a light bulb hanging on his head when he looked up.
The moon symbolizes spirituality, intuition, unconsciousness, desire, and instinct.
Abdullah was a Tekkaman and was well aware of the extraordinary vision created by the "madman" Abdullah, who shared his name. In that scroll, the seven human paths corresponded to seven sacred numbers, seven planets, seven concentric circles, and seven identities.
Contrary to intuition, the seven planets do not actually include the one beneath our feet; the position of the one beneath our feet is occupied by the moon, which should be classified as a satellite.
After all, mysticism and astronomy are quite different.
The prophet corresponds to the moon.
Abdullah was also stunned when he saw the moon.
But this sanctuary should belong to Jeremiah the "wise one," so how could it have such a strong prophetic influence?
Before he could think further, a rustling sound drifted over, like someone whispering or someone calling out to him from afar.
What they said was:
“Abdullah, haven’t you realized? Furna Bonaparte has no intention of cooperating with you at all. Think about it, she’s in cahoots with that saint and the knight, where would you find a place to hide?”
“Listen to me, Abdullah, Lundal has obtained the key to the captain’s cabin. You can lure Bonaparte to the lower deck.”
"Hey, let them both suffer heavy losses. First, trick that Lundell into death, and then take Bonaparte out while she's also injured."
"This sanctuary is yours."
Chapter 287 Each with their own thoughts
"Who?!"
"Who is speaking!"
Abdullah looked up suddenly, but the deck was empty, with only the salty sea breeze.
The sea breeze carried sounds, and the ghosts bewitched:
“We are the crew of this ship, sleepless spirits! Abdullah, we know what you want, we can help you.”
"You know what? There's no place for you next to Bonaparte, hahaha, and you're still taking her orders."
"And we, yes, we, we can offer you better opportunities."
Ever since Abdullah stepped onto the deck, those vile and seductive voices in his ears had never stopped.
But to be fair, the ghosts' whispers did little to sway his resolve.
Betrayal is easy, but if you don't drink the wine Tia pours for you, or turn the table when Santis picks up food for you, the consequences will be dire.
Moreover, his experience in the laurel grove left a very deep impression on him; he vividly remembered the coldness of the blade and the warmth of the blood as the Victory Sword pierced his neck.
So while betrayal is nothing, there has to be an end to being a traitor who serves three masters!
Under the influence of these terrifying memories, Abdullah had no intention of betraying Tia.
Just like in Crusader Kings, the higher the monarch's terror level, the more loyal the vassals become. In this respect, Tia can only say that Earthlings are truly not deceiving us.
He immediately rebuked, "You want to undermine my will?"
Abdullah didn't believe in these suddenly appearing ghosts at all.
Where do all these good things come from?
The first time Durant did something good, he messed up.
I finally made it to Sequence 6 on my second attempt at Santis, only to end up in a nightmare! Ha!
He didn't even have much hope for Tia. The reason he chose to betray Santis and join Tia was not only because he was indeed tempted by the conditions Tia offered, but also because he was afraid that next time he would lose more than just his head!
The ghosts said, "No, of course not!"
"We are explaining the pros and cons to you."
"I told you long ago that this guy is too stupid."
"Ha! Try to sway you? We're helping you! Look at Bonaparte, what's the difference between her and Santis? High-ranking superhumans don't care about your life or death!"
"You might as well listen to me. Londel has already taken the key to the captain's cabin. If you kill him, this sanctuary will be yours, and everyone will become your slave!"
Abdullah sneered, "And then what? Wait until I return to the material world and get killed by them working together?"
The ghosts laughed incessantly, their canned laughter echoing from all directions around Abdullah.
"Abdullah, you are incredibly stupid. You're afraid of those two people now that you have the sanctuary?"
"In the worst-case scenario, you can just hide in the sanctuary. Do you think they'd dare come in?"
That's true.
The Sanctuary is the safest barrier. Unless the enemy is far stronger than himself, or the enemy is shameless enough to surround him with a dozen or even dozens of them, he can stay in the Sanctuary forever.
He also genuinely suspected that Tia might eliminate him in order to protect Yehfa.
This did indeed cause Abdullah to waver slightly.
But not many.
The PTSD I had last time when I was greedy for Laurel was too severe.
But the ghosts were clearly unaware of this, and continued to paint a rosy picture of a bright future for Abdullah.
And what about Abdullah?
He was scheming about how to increase his value and leverage in front of Tia, so as to avoid being sacrificed in the end.
Abdullah remained silent and went to the wheelhouse on the deck.
But as soon as he reached the wheel, Abdullah knew that the ghosts were right about at least one thing.
—Londel has been to this place before, and probably even took the key to the captain's cabin.
The wheel rudder had a gap the size of a human head corroded in the very center, giving it a distinctly supernatural, ritualistic feel.
He was sent to the upper deck to inspect the rudder. Upon seeing this, Abdullah took a deep breath, turned around, and quickly walked towards the middle deck.
The ghosts continue to sow discord.
“Abdullah, do you see? Your mission has failed. Your standing in Bonaparte’s eyes has plummeted once again.”
"Listen to us, that's the only right way out! In this ritual, whoever controls the sanctuary will be the winner!"
Abdullah paused in his steps.
He looked up at the moon in the sky and said solemnly, "You make it sound so easy! But controlling the Sanctuary is not that simple!"
"Londel is a Sequence 4 archbishop, and Bonaparte is an unfathomable witch. How can I possibly deal with them?"
The ghosts' seductive voices rang in Abdullah's ears.
"It's simple. We just need to lure Bonaparte to the lower deck. Londel is about to kill that knight. Then..."
........................
........................
A burst of holy light suddenly erupted from the lower deck, shaking the entire sailing battleship.
Tia could feel it very clearly in the officers' conference room on the middle floor.
Brigitte was jolted against the wall, coughing up blood. She wiped her mouth, revealing her fiery red lips.
Her injuries hadn't healed, and she relied entirely on Tia's blood for repair. In theory, light in blood should provide an effect equivalent to Sequence 5 rapid healing, capable of repairing non-fatal wounds.
But Lundell's skill in working on the oak roads in the earth is exceptional.
After his thorn vine pierced Brigitte's chest, a large clump of spores exploded and buried inside Brigitte's flesh, acting like a time bomb to specifically hinder the clotting and repair of the healing ritual, thus greatly slowing down the wound's healing speed.
However, Brigitte, despite her disability, was determined and took the opportunity to peek down to the lower deck.
When she saw that Ye Haifa and Lundl appeared on the lower deck at the same time, she took off running.
After seeing Tia come out, Bridget hurriedly said, "There's a problem down there. Londel actually ran down to the lower deck—cough cough, give me a couple of bites!"
"Londel is on the lower level?!"
Tia was quite happy when she came out, but she was shocked when she heard the news.
She immediately said, "I won't move if you stay here. I'm going to the lower deck to meet with Londel."
Brigitte said, "You're going now? What if you get killed? I just saw that knight was almost at his limit, and those ghosts are there too. I saw them attacking Ye Haifa, but they're all formless, and we can't see the source of their attacks. Can you handle it?"
"It might not have worked before—but it's hard to say now."
Brigitte was shocked. Why didn't you take me with you when you evolved?
Then I remembered that Tia had taken the snuff bottle to the conference room earlier.
"You went to sell your ditch to that elf?"
"Mind your own business as the President."
Tia said, "If Abdullah comes back, send him to the lower deck immediately!"
She is indeed quite anxious right now.
Since Londel is on the lower level, it's highly likely that he has already obtained the key to the captain's cabin.
But the question is, how did Lundl know where the key was?
First of all, it's impossible that he knew all along. He only realized he needed to get the key now that he was almost stabbed through the heart by Brigitte. Where was he before?
That means he must have only found out when he escaped to the upper deck.
How did you know?
Tia knew without even thinking who was deliberately creating chaos and crisis.
How do we fight this?
Someone's cheating!
She took the magic mirror out of her bosom.
The method that allows her to observe and approach ghosts is simple.
It means shattering the magic mirror and using an extremely painful and bloody method to pierce the eyeballs with shards of the mirror.
Flesh and blood are the substance of the spirit, and the eyes are the windows to the spirit.
Piercing her eyeballs signifies the breaking of the spiritual gateway, and her soul will constantly unleash its spirituality in nightmares. As she gains the ability to observe ghosts, her soul will be completely exposed to the ghosts and her nightmares.
Once she dies, her soul will also be trapped in this nightmare, unable to escape.
Dealing with the spirit in the pot is not a good idea.
