Chapter 36: The Curse

"Do you know why I said that Ron is the most suitable captain? In the past three days, you have all been resting and adjusting, while Ron is collecting information and intelligence, although your information is confidential, it is not impossible to get it, and the major chambers of commerce have complete intelligence networks. It's easy to get information about you little people. The captain is not to charge into the front line, but to make all the team members twist into a rope and give full play to the power of the team. Flender looked at the young men, who were still a little dissatisfied, and spoke.

Liana wanted to say something, but saw Gina bow slightly towards Ron and said, "I understand, your choice is indeed not bad, Gina is willing to obey Captain Ron's orders." ”

"I, Bob Ironhoof, am willing to do at the captain's disposal. The minotaur stomped the totem in his hand and said.

Liana didn't expect this woman from the Great Sanctuary to make a decision so quickly, and she was also a little surprised, he looked at the other people, obviously still a little reluctant to accept such an arrangement.

Effie and Benson are from the same force, and although the two have many disagreements, the relationship between the two is not bad. Effie and Benson looked at each other and said, "We're willing to accept the arrangement." ”

Seeing that everyone agreed to this arrangement, Liana, who still wanted to say something, could only stomp her feet angrily and stopped talking, obviously acquiescing to this decision.

Flender stroked his beard and smiled at the quiet woman from the Great Chapel. Then he turned his back to everyone and said: "Because none of the personnel who went to investigate the situation sent back the news, which means that there is no hint of this mission, and it also means that the danger level is quite high, if I want to quit now, I will not have any dissatisfaction." ”

"Since the speaker is here, there is no need to say these things, it seems unfavorable. Ron and Flender were not polite, and did not show much awe at all for the Lord, as they walked past him towards the teleportation door in the distance.

The corners of the others' mouths twitched slightly, but they didn't say much, and walked towards the portal, indicating their decision with actions.

The portal still looks like there is a certain difference between the teleportation circle, and a faint spatial fluctuation makes it seem as if the entire soul will be sucked into it.

Ron stopped in front of the portal and said, "Since I'm the captain, then the rest of the matter has to be arranged by me, this is no problem for everyone, I don't want something unpleasant to happen at that time." ”

"Hmph, do you want us to hear if you're wrong?" said Liana, pouting.

"Of course not, if my request causes dissatisfaction among the people, as long as four people disagree, we can decide by voting, the minority obeys the majority, and any proposal must be approved by more than half of the people to reach an agreement. Otherwise, what I say will prevail. Ron spoke as if he had changed people, and his originally lazy aura suddenly changed, giving people a sense of suffocation from being oppressed by their superiors.

Gina, who had been very quiet, also frowned slightly at this time, but quickly regained her composure, and said with a sweet smile on her face: "Captain Ron's words are very reasonable, if a team wants to unite, it only needs one voice, and I support this very much." ”

Liana saw that her words didn't have any effect, so she didn't say more, after all, everyone is a team, and they are going to such a dangerous place, so naturally more is better than less.

"Okay, okay, don't keep talking about this little thing, let's hurry up. Sapoqi shook his ears, his hooves spread, and he stepped in front of the crowd and leaped into the portal that seemed to be real.

The surrounding people were stunned for a moment, and then they all stopped talking and walked towards the portal.

Ron followed closely behind Sapoci, and the second entered the portal, and as the captain, he naturally had to go there first, so that he could be more convinced.

The portal is different from the teleportation circle, its storage time is limited, and the structure is not as stable as the magic circle, but the advantage is that the spatial link is closer than the magic circle, so that when passing through the portal, there will only be a slight spatial deviation, and it will not make people spin like the circle. In a trance, Ron had already appeared in a fiery red world, surrounded by bare trees, not even a single bird.

Soon, the others also passed through the portal one after another, taking in their surroundings.

Everything around looked very weird, and there was chaos of elemental energy all around, as if someone had knocked over the five-flavor bottle that stored various elemental energy. Inexplicably, sparks or thunder will burst out in the air, which will make people feel a little uneasy.

"It's a creepy place. Benson shrugged his broad shoulders and put one hand behind his back so that he could react immediately and pull the shield behind his back.

Ron had arrived earlier than the others, and was naturally observing the terrain and environment.

In addition to the eerie looking red sky, the chaotic elemental energy around it made people feel extremely uncomfortable. Other than that, at least for now, it doesn't seem like a deadly threat has been found in this place.

"Captain Ron, the environment around this place is complicated and the place is huge, how can we investigate?" Gina's voice came, bringing Ron back from his musings.

The others also looked at it, although they didn't agree with Ron very much, but they also wanted to hear other people's opinions at this time. 14

Ron looked around and said, "The environment here is quite special, although it is more beneficial to investigate separately, but I think it is better not to disperse for the time being, after all, everyone is not familiar with this place." As for the direction......"

Ron came to the edge of a dead tree, his staff lit up, and a white blade of light flew out, cutting the tree in front of him.

Everyone was puzzled and stepped forward. Effie scratched her head and asked, "Ron, what are you doing here?"

"The direction of the tree's sparse rings is the direction where more sunlight shines, and the Kohler Mountains are located at the southern tip of the world, so this direction is north. The depths of the Kohler Mountains are located to the north, so going in this direction should be what we are looking for this time. Ron pointed in one direction and said in a deep voice.

Everyone looked at each other, and although they didn't know whether Ron's words were true or not, it sounded quite like that.

"Since Captain Ron said so, let's investigate in this direction first, don't separate, and solve any problems together. An incandescent staff appeared in Gina's hand, and the whole body showed a milky white halo, which looked extremely sacred.

As soon as she raised her hand, everyone only felt that their bodies were full of strength, their bodies were as light as swallows, and all kinds of functions of their bodies became active at this moment.

"It's the group's true words and tenacity, and it's really the height of the Great Holy Hall, and it's not ordinary. Effie nodded in acknowledgement.

Ivy also took out a staff at this time, an ice-blue staff was dotted with an emerald green magic crystal, and the divine light on it flowed, which had a unique scenery.

With Ivy chanting in a low voice, everyone only felt a clear mind, and their thoughts became extremely clear at this moment.

"Captain Ron's friends are also extraordinary, thank you very much for your pupils of collective wisdom. Gina was well-informed, so she naturally knew the skills released by Ivy at once, and bowed to Ivy.

"Since we are a team, we naturally have to take care of each other. There was a smile on Ivy's face, although her expression was still so cold, but it was much better than before.

The atmosphere of the crowd was softened a lot by the group buff of Gina and Ivy, and they followed Ron to the north.

Along the way, everyone only saw the boundless dead branches, and nothing else, not even snakes, insects, rats and ants, and the surroundings seemed unusually silent.

In such a quiet environment, the footsteps of the crowd sounded extremely heavy. Every sound felt as if it was stepping on my heart.

"Whew!" I don't know how far I walked, but just when everyone was tormented by this boundless silence, a loud cry suddenly sounded in the distance.

The voice sounded like a cuckoo crying blood, very miserable and desolate, and people couldn't help but have some moist eyes and want to cry.

"Beware, everyone!" shouted Liana, "it's a curse!"

She is an elf race, they are a race that admires nature, and the women in the clan are born pure, and they are naturally very sensitive to this kind of curse-like attack, and they immediately noticed that something was wrong in the cry.

Gina was also immediately awakened by Liana's shout, and the staff in her hand shone brightly, turning into a soft beam of light that enveloped everyone.

Everyone only felt that the previous sad mood disintegrated like ice and snow melting, and the whole person suddenly regained his consciousness.

"What the hell is going on? How can there be a curse power here!" Bob, the minotaur who has never spoken much, was also a little calm at this time, and the light on the thick totem in his hand kept flickering.

"This curse doesn't seem very strong yet, but it just keeps us in a sad mood, and it's good that Gina is here, otherwise we might all have suffered. "Effie is a paladin, and although they are also the nemesis of that evil thing, they are the most afraid of curses, and legend has it that a long time ago, there was a powerful paladin who fell because of a curse and became a death knight. This made him, who had always been brave and diligent, afraid of the curse.

Ron frowned, looking at the place where the voice had just come from, and he always felt a very strange feeling, but he couldn't put it into words.

"Let's fix it in situ first, if there is any danger ahead, it's better to keep everyone in the best shape at all times. Ron suggested.

Everyone had no opinion on this, and after what had just happened, everyone suddenly became more vigilant and cautious.
