Chapter 304 79 Cursed Entity (Two in One)
Chapter 304 79. Cursed Entity (two in one)
"What's coming?"
Balzac heard Eloise's words and looked outside the ancestral hall inexplicably. Outside the protective magic set up by Fisher, the wind and snow in the north suddenly became fierce under the moonlight, covering the sky. In the white wind that blocked the sun, a kind of oppression that could not be seen by the human eye but was extremely obvious came over, making everyone present shudder.
The bright moonlight in the sky became more and more obvious, seeming to solidify and separate the northern world at night.
In Eloise's sight, everything around her seemed to be smudged by a galaxy-like background, outlining bright stars mixed with blinking eyeballs. Those sights and eyes were just looking inadvertently, until When they saw Eloise, they all looked over as if they had discovered something interesting.
Those looks made Eloise's legs weak, but after all, there was no obvious malice in those looks. Only the strange existence outside the protective shield of the ancestral hall had obvious malice towards her.
It. Wants to kill itself?
"Bang!"
The cold wind passed through the protective shield and blew the tents and cooking utensils prepared by the Turan family outside the ancestral hall everywhere. Everyone noticed that something had happened here, and they all held weapons and muskets and looked at the moonlight outside the protective shield. , the only answer to them was silence and pieces of dirty feathers growing slowly in nothingness.
Fortunately, the world echo caused by the protective magic deployed by Fisher can isolate the attack from the spirit world. Those feathers are only attached to the bright surface of the protective magic and have not invaded the temple for the time being. Balzac in the temple made a prompt decision. , shouted to Eloise,
"Go quickly! Don't be stunned! While the magic protective shield is still available, go and find the hidden moon rabbit mark, and then hide in the relic. Quick!"
"Hey me."
Sister Eloise looked at the weird feathers that were growing and spreading on the protective shield, as if some kind of fear engraved in her genes was instantly awakened, but after only hesitating for a moment, she gritted her teeth, lowered her head and muttered something in a low voice. "Mother God bless", these words gave her great courage, and she immediately turned back to look at the internal structure of the ancestral hall at night.
Behind Valentina, the white hair on her cheeks was slightly blown by the cold wind behind her. Behind him, Heldor tightly grasped the handle of her wheelchair and pushed her to a place sheltered from the wind.
"Zizi. Felice, you are not suitable to take action against this enemy. Push Valentina outside to meet with the family members so that she can use [Moon Princess] without being interrupted. I will Balzac is going to follow Sister Eloise to find the Seal of the Moon Rabbit. If Fisher comes back, let him come in quickly, we need him."
Phyllis pulled out the huge straight knife from her back, nodded to Heldor and accepted the task, but just as Heldor was about to leave, Valentina, who was sitting in a wheelchair, Suddenly he spoke and said to Heldor,
"Heldor, pay attention to your health. You must save the lives of Eloise and Balzac. If you really can't get the moon rabbit mark, let them go back to the relic and hide. I don't want anything to happen to anyone. ”
"Zizi. I understand."
Heldor turned away and left. The steam under his cheeks and the bright blue light on his body became more and more frequent. An ominous premonition gradually arose in Valentina's heart, but she had no choice but to Praying to Frost Phoenix for peace in my heart.
But it wasn't just the prayer in her heart. Valentina moved her hands slightly, and a small wooden box appeared in her hands. She pushed it open gently, and the strange weapon that Fisher had seen once before appeared. It suddenly showed its noble appearance.
It is one of the four magic weapons created by the Angel Race for the Phoenix Race, the Moon Princess Saber Sword.
The sword of the Moon Princess can summon substantial moonlight, which will not only cause damage to entities, but also damage to magic. I heard Heldor say before that the essence of magic is to stir the echo of the world, and it has something to do with the soul. Close relationship, then this magic weapon should also be effective against enemies such as souls.
Valentina will use the power of this weapon to protect them outside the temple.
"Imprint. Huh? Dad, grandpa and other uncles and aunts, where did you put such important things?"
Talking back to the situation in the ancestral hall, under the bright moonlight, the scene of the ancestral hall in Elos' eyes has undergone earth-shaking changes. On the surrounding walls, the originally lifeless murals seemed to have color, and the originally faded figures on them were colorful. It dances colorfully, as if it is showing the beautiful dance of the Moon Rabbit species.
She wiped her eyes and saw countless eyes blinking at her next to those weird dances, as if they were hinting at something to her.
Soon, it wasn’t just the sight of them, they were all laughing and joking, whispering, gesturing wildly at Eloise,
"Gulu Ba Ke pinches Hatu"
"Sleepy, Silalu."
The countless voices that sounded like excited singing made Eloise's mind a little dizzy. She panted and moved towards the place where the eyes hinted at her, while looking at those eyes that she didn't know existed with some distress. ,
"Well, what are you talking about? I don't understand it at all. Are you saying that the mark is in this direction?"
"Kuruba, Shakushaku."
"Huh? I really don't understand what you are talking about."
This was the first time for Eloise to hear these active little guys talking. In the previous nights, the most she saw were the tangible souls of various creatures. Occasionally, she would encounter souls that were about to dissipate, and the bodies of those souls would be surrounded by These little eyes like stars.
But for some reason, these little eyes were particularly active tonight and even started talking to her.
"Sister Eloise, did you find anything?"
With the strong wind behind them, Balzac and Heldor followed. They said this to Eloise who was standing in the corridor on the second floor of the ancestral hall, but obviously, she did not get the answer she wanted.
Eloise told the two of them what they had just encountered, but neither the knowledgeable Balzac nor the experienced magician Heldor knew what those eyes were. If Fisher were here, , he might know that those eyes are the species of chaos hidden in the spiritual world, and they are also high-dimensional beings that launched a massive attack on the northern border thousands of years ago.
"Don't worry about those eyes. We have to find the mark quickly. The magic outside won't last long."
Before Balzac could finish his words, the light blue shield outside had cracks like glass, and feathers that seemed to be the most filthy existence in the world rushed to carry the Sema Snow Mountain away. The cold wind rushed in violently, making Balzac's scalp numb.
Because even though he was as clumsy as he was, he could still feel that there was some kind of existence staring at them, or in other words, it was Eloise, the orphan of the Moon Rabbit behind him.
"Quickly go! Go upstairs, something is coming! Damn it, that magician from Nali is not reliable at all. What kind of ghost protection magic circle is this? Why did it only last so long?"
Steam surged under Heldor's face, and the magic ring worn in the mechanical arm also became brighter.
"Zizi. It's not that there's something wrong with the magic arranged by Fisher, it's that the curse of the attack is very strong. We have witnessed other members of the Moon Rabbit race being attacked before, but never with such violence. Is it because this is the last one? The direct descendant of the Moon Rabbit, the source of the curse, do you want to kill her?"
"Don't discuss it in front of me! Woohoo, I'll go find the mark right away!"
Eloise was scared out of her wits by their discussion, not to mention that she could still see what the cursed entity outside looked like. She turned her head to look at the group of little people winking at her. The eyes, at this moment, all the small eyes like a galaxy were full of teasing, but Eloise had no choice but to follow their hints and run upstairs.
Coincidentally, she also had a storage place that she had guessed in advance on the top floor of the ancestral hall.
"Howl!"
At the next moment, a strange invisible existence like a shadow broke through the protective magic outside and poured into the center of the ancestral hall like wind. Under the bright moonlight like water in the hall, Eloise looked back and saw that strange The appearance of existence was instantly impressed upon her eyes.
It was an illusory, projection-like figure. Most of its body was a shadow composed of countless black feathers surging like the ocean tide. It had no fixed shape, and only the top could be called the "head." "A dense number of eyeballs appeared in the place.
The eyes were connected but not one. They looked unconsciously in different directions, such as the southeast, northwest, and southeast, making people wonder whether they could see specific things clearly.
Although there are many eyes, the vision is still blind.
This is the best portrayal of that strange existence.
"Traitor. Traitor blood bait. Blood food."
Only Eloise's ears could hear it. The strange existence kept chanting in a low voice the ancient Northern dialect that even she could not quite understand. The moment she heard the voice, the pain in Eloise's body The magic circuit lit up uncontrollably, causing goosebumps one after another.
Heldor obviously noticed the changes in Eloise's body. Although he couldn't see the cursed entity, he reached out to push it away and said to her,
"Zizi. Find the mark, and I will arrange protective magic for your path forward."
Eloise pursed her lips, shook her head to throw away those fears, and ran towards the top floor without looking back.
"Zizi. Magic, mobile protection, light acceleration, lighting."
As the words from Heldor's mouth continued to spit out, the magic engraved on his hands also stirred up the echo of the world, and various buff and protective magics bloomed in the distance.
He couldn't see the curse, and of course he wouldn't expect any magic to take effect on the curse. He could only facilitate Eloise's progress, but at the next moment, the blue light on Heldor suddenly flashed. , he also fell to the ground uncontrollably, and kept uttering strange words in his mouth,
"Didi. Error Didi Error"
"Hey, Heldor. What's wrong with you? What did you just say?"
Balzac, who was about to leave, noticed the situation behind him. He immediately turned around and wanted to come back, but Heldor suddenly raised his hand to stop him.
"Zizi. It's nothing. I'm fine. I just suddenly thought of something. Go quickly, don't worry about me, and get the Moon Rabbit Mark back for Valentina."
At this time, the light representing the cardinal on Heldor's body became increasingly dim, but the temperature inside his body became higher and higher. Another deep power from the soul did not know when it continued through his iron bones. The Cardinal's stream of light allowed him to stand up again, and then released the magic that had not been completed before.
Balzac gritted his teeth, turned his head to look outside, cursed, and followed Ilos to the upper floors.
With the appearance of magic, the prying world echo also affected the spirit world. The moment the protective magic was generated, it knocked away the cursed entity, but aroused its most primitive and crazy anger.
"Howl!"
A strange bird cry that was almost piercing exploded in the ears of everyone present. Many staff members outside suddenly felt their skin itchy. Looking down, they found that the tops of feathers were bleeding on a piece of their skin, which made them panic.
At this moment, in the wind and snow behind them, a Nari man in a heavy robe ran over with a cold face. In his hand, he was holding an iron nail with a flashing [Soul] ring. Who else could it be but Valentina's newly hired staff Fisher?
Fisher had just guessed that there was a high possibility that a curse of the same type as the one on the island would attack Ilos, so he engraved a low-level original [Soul] magic on his hand while running, which made Emhart in his arms dumbfounded and made him a little uncomfortable to evaluate.
He had to admit that even if Emhart thought Fisher was a bad man who loved subhuman girls, his talent in magic was still unmatched by others.
Valentina also noticed the man running behind her. Just as she was about to say something, he had already thrown the steel nail in his hand towards the snow in the Turan family camp. As a wave from the soul level was generated from the iron nail, the magic circuits of everyone outside suddenly lit up.
Second-ring magic, [Soul Active].
The effect is probably to make the soul in the human body more active. For magicians, they can better feel the echo of the world, and for ordinary people, they can better feel the magic. As Fisher expected, the curse takes effect on the human soul. When the soul in the human body becomes active, their resistance to the curse will increase.
The reason why Heldor was cursed and grew feathers last time but he didn't feel any pain was because his soul was fuel instead of the body. Fisher should have known at that time that what was in Heldor's body was not his real soul, but a copy of his consciousness.
But I'm afraid that even so, as long as he could continue to serve Valentina, he would be happy, right?
When the magic circuits of ordinary people present lit up uncontrollably, the traces of curse on their bodies began to gradually fade.
Fisher glanced at Valentina and Phyllis sitting at the door of the ancestral hall, and then looked inside the ancestral hall. In the spiritual world vision enhanced by the sub-human girl's manual, the curse entity howling in the air was so conspicuous.
"Fisher"
Valentina just wanted to tell Fisher something about the situation inside, but Fisher had roughly guessed what happened inside. He drew out the fluid sword in his hand without saying a word, and passed Valentina at an extraordinary speed and came to the door of the ancestral hall.
At the same time, the whip-like fluid sword stretched out backwards and tightly entangled the curse cage placed outside in the snow.
At that time, the curse cage was originally considered to be placed inside the ancestral hall, but the door of the ancestral hall was too narrow to put it in at all, so it could only be placed at the door. But now Fisher couldn't care so much. If Ilos was attacked by the curse, he might be in danger. He had to bring the curse cage in.
Fisher's face sank, and his body at the ninth level suddenly exerted force. The curse cage that made the two horses breathless was suddenly pulled by him at this moment, and followed his footsteps like a spinning top and rushed towards the direction of the ancestral hall. Valentina in the wheelchair couldn't help but open her mouth and was dumbfounded.
Is this guy still human?
Fisher glanced at Valentina, and at this moment, the magic circuit on her body also lit up. Fisher, who was familiar with magic circuits and sub-humans, recognized at a glance that the magic circuit on her body was not human, and he had never seen such a magic circuit shape.
But he didn't have time to worry about what sub-human Valentina was. He had to focus on the matter at hand, and only reminded her,
"Get out of the way!"
Phyllis pulled Valentina's wheelchair backwards a step after realizing it, and Fisher dragged the several hundred kilograms of the curse cage behind him and rushed into the ancestral hall without stopping.
"Boom!"
With a loud noise, the curse cage passed through the narrow stone door without hindrance and rotated towards the bright moonlight in the hall. Fisher took one step and three steps at a time, jumped up in the air, stepped on the curse cage and faced the strange curse roaring in the air, and jumped towards the third floor of the ancestral hall.
"Mr. Fisher!"
The noise made by Fisher was so loud that Ilos on the top floor could hear it. She turned her head and saw the cursed entity rushing towards her. She was so scared that she turned her head and continued to run forward. Balzac's body was itchy. He was not affected by Fisher's soul magic just now, so he suffered the effect of the curse, but he still gritted his teeth and followed Ilos without stopping.
"Kulu, Kuruba, Shakushaku."
The star eyes next to him spoke again, guiding Ilos to the top floor, the stone wall closest to the moonlight. In her sight, the stone wall in front of her was rippling with layers of visible ripples like water waves, and next to it, lines of exquisite murals and northern border text appeared.
On the mural, there were moon rabbits kneeling under the huge snow mountain. On the snow mountain, a golden sacred tree with countless branches was full of snowflake-like fruits, symbolizing that the identity of the sacred tree was the Frost and Snow Sycamore Tree.
Next to it, the ancient northern characters, which were also somewhat illusory, recorded the glory of the Moon Rabbit, one of the six tribes.
"Honorable Phoenix, thank you for your mercy and saving us from disaster. We offer you our loyalty and ability, broaden your horizons, discover treasures for you, and sing praises for you."
"The mark you gave us will be passed down forever as a token of loyalty that is stronger than blood."
Ilos's eyes slowly moved along the text, and finally fell on the center of the surging wall ripples. These murals, texts and ripples do not exist in the real world. Or, they are not completely in the real world.
I still remember that when Fisher escaped from Sannali, a demon servant used a mysterious relic to bring him into the gap between the spirit world and the world, thus avoiding the pursuit of Elizabeth's fleet. Now it is the same. The Moon Rabbit, who has a vision that is countless times sharper than other races, can not only see, but also is good at hiding items in this gap.
Ilos reached out her hand blankly. In the surprised sight of Balzac who was panting behind her, her white palm strangely passed through the wall in front of her and sank into the void. As she slowly groped, she soon touched a hard object in it.
When she reached out again, there was a pure white mark in the shape of a snowflake on her palm. In the center of the mark, a Moon Rabbit species wearing a long robe knelt on one knee and looked up at the direction above the mark. Just like the mark of the Ashen Bird species, the top of this mark was also in the shape of a snowy mountain peak.
"The mark of the Moon Rabbit species, got it! Let's go!"
Balzac, who was excited behind him, almost jumped up. As soon as he opened his mouth, his body immediately itched more than ten times. Soon, it was not just itchy, but turned into extremely severe pain. His face turned pale, and he raised his hands tremblingly, but found that black feathers were constantly growing there.
Ilos also looked back as if she had sensed something. The strange curse with hundreds of eyes was already howling towards her, and its target was exactly her, the last orphan of the Moon Rabbit.'
"Howl!"
Facing the extremely terrifying curse in front of her, Ilos was so frightened that she dared not move. Only her slightly trembling fingers were still tightly grasping the mark on her hand, for fear of losing it.
"Traitor, traitor, traitor, traitor, traitor. Blood-eating, blood-eating, blood-eating, blood-eating."
"Run!"
Whispering in the crazy northern language, the curse suddenly pounced on Ilos. Ilos closed her eyes tightly and waited for death. Balzac next to her seemed to feel something and pushed her away. At such a critical moment, Ilos was suddenly pushed away and avoided the fatal attack. Although black feathers began to grow on her body, she was still alive.
But Balzac was not so comfortable. His body, which rarely exercised, fell to the ground because of this. Not only that, the feathers on his body grew more and more, and they were about to swallow him up completely in an instant. He had already gritted his teeth and closed his eyes unwillingly. The next moment, something had been wrapped around his waist and he was suddenly taken down from the upstairs.
I. am still alive?
In the sound of the wind passing by his ears, he opened his eyes confusedly, but saw that the stern-looking gentleman Nali stretched out his hand and used the fluid sword to gently put him and Ilos who fell to the ground next to him down the stairs. However, he looked at the trembling and whispering curse substance in front of him without wavering, as if trying to figure out what it was.
While Balzac was stunned, he and Ilos had been thrown to the ground on the first floor of the ancestral hall by Fisher, and could no longer see the situation on the top floor, but he looked down at the black feathers growing on himself and Ilos, and he looked up and found that he didn't know when the curse cage had been brought to the center of the ancestral hall.
Looking at the door of the ancestral hall that was violently knocked open, Balzac raised his eyebrows uncontrollably.
Could it be that the Nari did it?
Or don't always choke him in the future
He gritted his teeth and stood up, walked to the front of the curse cage and opened the door, and shouted to Ilos behind him,
"Come in quickly, we are cursed, and only by going in can the curse be completely isolated. Do you want to become a black-feathered chicken?"
"Hey? But Mr. Fisher is still up there."
"Yes, and Heldor"
Balzac got into the curse cage and looked at the top of the ancestral hall in the bright moonlight outside. The breath there was still terrifying.
"The mark is in hand. All we can do now is not to drag them down. We can only choose to believe them. Damn, what the hell is that thing, I can't see anything!"
