Chapter 388 Silence Ointment and Black Widow

Although there were still doubts in his heart, Annan still remembered Zhi Ji's previous exhortation - "keep silent", so he did not ask questions immediately.

Under the sunlight, the "Silent One's Ointment" has been flowing out slowly and firmly. As they flowed out of the blood vessels, Annan clearly felt that the strange feeling of being blocked by smoke in his throat was quickly relieved.

It was not until about 80 ml of "black sesame paste" poured out of Annan's wrist that the ointment-like blood suddenly stopped.

After all the blood of forgetting was drained, Annan's original blood did not flow out and contaminate the liquid.

Although the bright red scars can still be seen, and even the blood inside. But the blood seemed to have stopped in front of the transparent plastic wrap, accumulating on the edge but never flowing out.

Then an eraser appeared in the gap between Zhi Ji's right finger.

She took the rubber and wiped it on Annan's wrist, wiping away his wound directly.

At this time, the blood of forgetting about two fingers high has accumulated in the fish tank.

The liquid in the fish tank can no longer be called blood.

It was a mass of gray ink that seemed to have life.

In order to avoid the sun, they shrank to the side of the high beam of the fish tank, but they were still shivering.

"Okay, we can talk."

Zhi Ji breathed a sigh of relief, indicating that Annan did not need to remain silent any longer, and asked again, "By the way, can these oils of silence be sold to me? I can use them to paint a picture for you, which may remind you of Bringing up more memories, or giving you some new influence."

"It can be... just I wonder what it's good for."

Annan frowned slightly and asked tentatively, "Or what else can it be used for? It's not that I won't sell it to you, it's just to satisfy my personal curiosity."

"Well," Alexander stood by, folded his arms in thought, "I've heard of it.

"As I recall, the Silencer ointment can be used to make some kind of poison. It can hoarse people's voices... Some followers of Black Widow will use this poison to make themselves dumb, to win the sympathy of others, and Take the antidote when you need it and change yourself back."

"It's not an antidote.

"

Zhiji explained: "It's the ritual I just performed. Only in this way can it be expelled... If Annan spoke just now, the ointment of the silent ones involved in his body would immediately turn into a gaseous state, and evaporates quickly.

"Because this ointment is not poison, but a gift from Lady Silence. Only after directly begging to Lady Silence 'let me forget something'... because of chance, I can recall this fragment of memory again. Extracted from a cut wrist, the source can be said to be very, very rare."

Having said that, Zhi Ji looked complicated and glanced at An Nan.

Annan vaguely realized something.

As expected, Zhi Ji explained: "Because it is the 'denied memory' itself. After it appears, it means that the memory you can't remember has been completely dissolved by the power of the Lady of Silence within you... The dissolved memory The more and the fuller, the greater the quantity of the ointment.

"Its special concept is 'the negation of silence', which can neutralize the toxins accumulated in the blood at any time...and after neutralization, the toxins are excreted over time. From this point of view, it is equivalent to a liquid liver.

"This ointment, when diluted through a mystical ritual, can be made into a 'Mix of Lost Things'. The significance of this is that it can still be one-twentieth or even one-tenth as potent when diluted a hundredfold. .And the purpose of diluting, just because it is too precious.

"Because after the injection of this ointment, people can't speak, but at the same time they won't get drunk, and they can also be immune to Veritaserum and sleeping pills. This allows those spies to keep calm at all times. And its biggest advantage The point is, to be able to bypass the poison of this ointment, what is required is not the toxicity, but the dose—the poison must be equal to the active ingredient to bypass it.

"Generally speaking, the powerful poisons that can kill people quickly are quite expensive. It is impossible for the poisoner to easily inject hundreds of times the lethal dose. The active ingredients of the mixture' neutralize each other and then 'silence' and lose their potency at the same time."

"Even if it is taking a strong curse or injecting a very strong poison directly, it will only make part of the ointment in an inert state of detoxification for a long time. Although the efficacy of this part of the ointment is ineffective, even people lose The ability of speech may also be temporarily eliminated, but those poisons that are blocked will never affect itself. From this point of view, it is even more advanced than the liver.

"—So the believers of the Black Widow, who take the blood of forgetting, are not actually to gain sympathy, but to improve their tolerance to poison. This way they can store some poison in their bodies, or keep themselves from being poisoned by their own poison. killed."

"...Is that so?"

Alexander's eyes widened slightly, obviously thinking of a lot of things in an instant.

And Zhi Ji explained to Annan what kind of god Black Widow is:

Cthulhu is not a general category, but a special designation.

A sinless god or church in one place may be an evil god in another country or even another region. For example, Black Widow - as the god of poison and spiders, he is a god that many stalkers believe in.

Moreover, in terms of occupational strength, choosing to advance to "Spider Whisperer" and "Spider Walker" are also good choices.

Whether it’s the spider walking silently clinging to walls or ceilings, or the ability to spit out extremely sticky cobwebs, as well as a variety of powerful poison-making techniques… they are indeed quite practical. Ability. Some stalkers who hope to master the art of poison, as well as wizards and wizard apprentices who have no hope of promotion will choose to believe in Black Widow.

But he is also the god of poisoning.

Black Widow's body is a huge poisonous spider. He is one of the very few gods who asks for a living sacrifice - he imposes a passive spell on his followers, killing one person every month with the designated poison he bestows.

And after poisoning the person, believers have to find a way to take a part of the killed person's body as proof of the ritual. This area must have their own toxins, so usually it will be the liver, some strong poisons can also be the hair, neck or nails.

And when the murderer is almost killed by this poison, the black widow will detoxify it herself and give the believer complete immunity to this poison. And give certain rewards according to your own mood-maybe rituals, magic, holy light imprints or deformities tending to spiders, and a new poison.

- This is their "mission".

Therefore, in the Kingdom of Noah, the United Kingdom, the Duchy of Winter and the Patriarchate, the Black Widow belongs to the evil god.

Only in the Underground Federation, Black Widow is not excluded, but exists as a common false god belief. So Black Widow's church also opened underground.

However, considering that everyone who worships the Spider Cult, there are people around who die every month. Then their density won't be too high, otherwise they'll be easy to spot.

So even in the excluded Three Kingdoms, there will be many people who worship Black Widow. Because if other believers discover that people of the same faith have strayed into their "cobwebs", even believers who also believe in Black Widow will be poisoned.

It can even be said that it will be prioritized for poisoning.

Because every spider worshiper who doesn't know where he came from may expose their original stable life.

The mission of Silver Sir's priests has always been to eradicate these evil god beliefs, arrest and execute the evil god believers.

Hearing this, Annan suddenly thought of a person.
