The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 194: Ritual: Dragon’s Purifying Fire

Si An’s mood at this moment is also very subtle.

I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or an illusion... Every time he sees this honey-haired saint, he will feel a strong impact on his three views——

Are all you people from other worlds so good at playing?

Why does it feel more open than the earth...

But this seems to be normal.

After all, in this world, there are ways to change one's appearance, one's gender, or even one's race. And it's not very difficult either.

Although the various technologies in this world are still roughly in the 15th to 19th centuries of the earth... But this technology of changing bodies at will has left the earth's technology far behind.

——Even without getting married, you can still use the ritual of the child in the cup to create offspring and continue the family bloodline.

The views on marriage and extraordinary love brought about by many convenient rituals and extraordinary powers are, to a certain extent... perhaps more advanced and open than the players on Earth.

"...But," Si Anke suddenly realized something, "that [Daughter of Eternity] just wanted to use the curse of 'Moth's Knot' to hurt me.

"Does that mean that she is very proficient in the rituals of the moth realm..."

"You actually want to ask if she was transformed from a male back then."

After understanding Si Anqi’s true thoughts, the saint couldn’t help laughing: “Right?”

"...This is actually a reasonable speculation."

Si Anke whispered.

The saint couldn't help laughing, and rubbed Si Anqing's hair vigorously, making it a mess: "This is what I told you. Do I not know?

"It is not surprising that Ingrid would use the ritual of the Moth Mother. In the rituals of the Moth Mother and the Silent Lady, a common requirement is that 'the ritual performer must be a female.'

"Slightly more demanding rituals may also require that 'the ritualist must be a virgin' or 'the ritualist must be a mother of three children', or even 'the ritualist must have had an abortion' or 'never had an abortion'. Kind of.

"Just like Mr. Yao's rituals, half of them must be performed by men - Mr. Yao's rituals are either performed by boys or by strong and healthy men. Therefore, almost all the priests in Mr. Yao's temple All of them are men...and more than 80% of the priests of the Moth Mother are women of different ages."

That’s it.

Si An nodded clearly.

That's why the Sun Realm and the Moth Realm have gender-changing rituals... because their high-level rituals originally have gender requirements.

And this means that some rituals have prerequisites that are bound to conflict with each other.

When priests of the temple use their own rituals, they can easily find suitable ritual performers to help each other - thus meeting each other's ritual needs.

It is not easy for wild ritual masters to achieve this condition. That's why they span multiple fields and master different types of rituals.

"And I don't care whether Ingrid is a boy or a girl at first..."

The honey-colored haired saint narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the dome shining with faint light, and murmured in a low voice: "It's all over anyway. That has nothing to do with me."

What you said... there are a lot of stories in it.

Si Anqi’s eyes moved slightly.

He is actually quite curious about the specific content of this gossip. But he was very perceptive - he sensed that Henry Warden was not in a good mood.

If you continue to ask questions at this time, it may indeed advance the plot, but it may also lose your favor.

Unlike Jiuer, Si Anke is the kind of player who tends to be conservative. Compared with satisfying your own gossip mentality, it is more important to continue to maintain a friendly relationship with the saint.

"Okay, after I leave, she probably won't continue to attack you."

The young saint comforted her with a gentle voice: "If you are still worried...I will teach you a ritual in Suifu's domain. With this ritual, you will never be cursed by her."

After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but smile and wink at Si Anqi: "You should be... still chaste now, right?"

"...Hmm."

Si Anqi took a deep breath and nodded in a muffled voice.

Generally speaking... he shouldn't feel any discomfort when being asked like this by someone of the same sex.

But when he learned that the saint named "Henry Worden" was once an abstinent female Holy Grail Knight, Si An suddenly had a vision of a "big sister" in him.

Coupled with this saint’s hair color that looks quite familiar...

When the saint spoke to him, he could always see a girl with honey-colored hair, but with stars in her eyes and a remote control in her hand.

If Henry were still a woman, this might be what he looked like...

"There's nothing to be ashamed of, boy."

The saint couldn't help laughing when he saw Si Anqi's embarrassment.

His left hand was in his pocket, and his right hand rubbed Si Anqi's hair vigorously: "Chastity is not a mistake. Living a chaotic private life in order to prove that you are popular is not a mistake. Commendable behavior.

"The Cup Girl once said that abstinence is a virtue."

The young saint said warmly: "'Love and **** are not the same way - you need to love others and abstain from sex', 'Desire is a heart-gnawing monster, and only the fierce can control it'.

“Although many people think that most of the believers of the Girl with the Cup are indulgent fanatics. But in fact, the Girl with the Cup teaches us to be abstinent...Only strong and powerful souls should indulge their desires.

"It's just that some people have some deviations in their self-perception. They think that they have enough capacity... but they are not able to control their desires, but are controlled by their desires.

"For these people, our Lord's wish is that if they cannot control their out-of-control desires, they should die because of their out-of-control desires; and if they grow from this process and gradually regain themselves , and restore peace of mind, then they will become 'strong men'."

Cause and effect cycle. Let nature take its course.

Si An is thoughtfully thinking.

I didn’t expect the girl holding the cup to be such a Buddhist god...

That’s why the cup-holder girl ignored the desperate cries sent to her by her followers who committed suicide due to greed—disaster caused by out-of-control desires was a predetermined outcome.

"The woman holding the cup is really a contradictory god..."

Si Anke murmured.

The saint was not angry: "Yes. The contradiction between love and desire, abstinence and indulgence is the charm of our Lord's way. We, the Knights of the Holy Grail, believe that 'Only the self is the self. The answer'.

“Self-persuasion, self-degradation, self-torture, self-salvation—overcoming the immature self and firmly controlling desires is the way to hold the cup.”

He patted Si Anqi's shoulder gently: "There is no need to avoid the love between a man and a woman, but it is not worth bragging about. Don't choose a love that is destined to be short-lived and unfortunate just for the sake of vain 'face'.

"That is self-degradation and harm to others. If you can understand this truth, then I teach you this ritual, which can be regarded as a kind of inheritance."

The saint was somewhat nostalgic: "Because when I was given this ceremony, I was taught this way by an elder."

"...What ceremony?"

"This is a high-ranking ritual of Sui Father... Only chaste and healthy young people can use it. It is called [Dragon's Purifying Fire]. Sui Father prefers chaste, healthy and strong men."

The saint took a deep breath and said slowly: "You need to extinguish all artificial light sources within the visual range around you. ~IndoMTL.com~ No matter whether it is green fire, black fire, charcoal fire or wood fire, Allowed to exist.

"Then in the dark night in the open air, pour his own blood on the iron block, put the iron block on the iron felt and beat it, while chanting——

"[This is not a golden flint, nor a wooden flint, this is a dragon flint. The dragon burns bones with blood, iron flint, and life with fire flint-]

"Then, the pure fire will be ignited on the iron block... This flame cannot be led by wood or vegetation, but it can be led into the wine pool. The more light sources are extinguished around, the stronger and more chaste the young man will be. The longer the purifying fire can last. All cursed or sick people and animals can burn away the curses on them as long as they take off their clothes and walk over the purifying fire.

"This is an absolute ritual that can dispel almost all curses. But only healthy and strong men can withstand this power... If other people are cursed by this ritual, their skin will be burned by clean fire and need to be completely protected from light. It will take several days to recover.

"It is important to note that this ritual cannot be used on the elderly, otherwise it will most likely lead to sudden death... and it must not be used to burn the corpses of others. As long as you direct the pure fire to the corpse, it will You will permanently lose the right to use the purifying fire ritual, and you may also offend Suifu's followers."

The young man said seriously with a straight face: "Do you understand, boy? Purifying fire is a very serious thing..."

"I totally understand."

Si Anke nodded slowly.

——This is the ritual of the sacred Brother Shuang...
