103. Spell activation

Talos is no stranger to curses, he encountered the High Nightmare Curse when he only went to the Black Dragon Island for the first order, and he also used the ability of [Gluttony] to absorb it to strengthen himself.

In fact, if he could find a way to get to the physical plane and be prepared to face the witch head-on, he wouldn't have been able to try to eat the curse on the Thumb Man in the same way.

The body did not turn back into the four-armed Naga after descending to the spirit world because of the [lazy] counterattack, but the soul fire was still there, and Talos was still able to use the ability given by [Gluttony] to suck the two curses of weakness and decay that were occurring on his body, but I don't know what was going on, the two most basic curses in black magic were extremely ferocious, and the effect was unbelievably powerful.

As soon as Talos realized what was happening, his temporary carrier was on the verge of collapse, and even his spirit had become confused and incapacitated.

Focusing on the last bit of spirit, Talos reluctantly opened the watch world and entered it with the help of the flower demon.

"Aang—"

The earthly python came to its side as fast as it could, opening its mouth and sucking at the dream-eating butterfly, which was no bigger than its scales.

Two black gases emerged from the Dream Eater Butterfly, and under the action of the huge suction, they were pulled into two thin and long rays of light, and threw them towards the mouth of the earthly giant python.

Feeling the outside situation, Talos finally breathed a sigh of relief, although the strength of the earthly python and Medusa was similar to him, but the essence was a mysterious and unpredictable primordial desire, and the curse was just a delicious snack for the earthly python that devoured everything.

However, it turned out that Talos was happy too early, and the two black qi had just partially left the Dream Eater's body, and he immediately struggled violently, as if he had a simple sense of self.

What's even more terrifying is that the two curses of weakness and decay actually make chirping, inhuman screams and sounds.

"Phew, there's a snake trying to eat us!"

"Rotting...... All flesh and blood are rotten......"

Such a strange situation simply set off a storm in the little lucid consciousness that Talos had left, you must know that spells—whether they are divine or magical—are just a use of elements, energy, domains, priesthoods, and even laws, and they are a means of attack that are different from martial arts and combat expertise, but now, the means of attack or weapons in the hands of spellcasters and clerics have come to life!

Will struggle, can talk!

Yes, coming to life, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and Talos remembered the representative magic of the enchanted faction, the activation spell.

The common activation spells include activation cables, activation plants, and the more famous ones are permanent advanced activation spells, which can be used with enlightenment spells to activate conventional magic items such as magic crystal cannons and alchemy battleships that have been infiltrated with magical energy into constructs.

- Sandra's Spirit of the Black Sea Dreadnought and the eighteen magic crystal cannons were born in this way.

The above are all regular applications of activation spells, for ordinary objects and magic items, and the highest is for spells, activating the spell itself, each of which is a legendary rank, one of the spells "Activation Lightning" Talos has only seen before, loaded on the Golden Titan, a work of the Tectonist school.

According to the knowledge that Talos had scavenged in his head, there were at least two prerequisites for a mage to use Activating Lightning, being proficient in the Air Elemental faction spells and being proficient in the Enchanted Faction spells, both of which had reached the legendary level.

Once the activation is successful, the overwhelming lightning will gain self-awareness before it is completely destroyed, and it can take the initiative to attack the enemy without additional command from the master, and what is even more terrifying is that each lightning will think, will change, and is more intelligent than a simple qi element creature, and knows how to join forces with other lightning bolts who have also gained life consciousness to fight the enemy together, and even arrange the master to know how to magic array.

Now, Talos sees the shadow of the spell activation in the two curses, is self-aware, can speak, knows how to resist, and is incredible.

In the face of the swallowing of the earthly python, the two curses made a piercing and sharp sound, like the cry of a midnight baby, and with the hoarseness of a crow, constantly struggling.

"Weak in the flesh—"

"Flesh rots—"

The Dream Eater Butterfly's body completely lost all strength, and its entire body was shrouded in a cloud of black gas, emitting a disgusting stench.

"Mentally weak—"

"Consciousness rots—"

Talos's eyes went dark, his consciousness fell into chaos, he was confused, and he could no longer perceive anything in the outside world.

"Weak energy—"

"Elemental Rot—"

Bang!

With the light sound of his life, the body of the Dream Eater Butterfly, which was already extremely dilapidated, suddenly collapsed and dispersed, reducing into a mass of colorful magical energy, turning into a stench and volatilizing.

At the critical moment, a little yellow flame light was born from the void, and it turned out that the soul fire, which was the source of Talos's life, sensed the danger and triggered the self-protection mechanism.

The clear flame swept outward, sending out a series of crackling explosions, calcining the curse wrapped around the body, spirit, and energy into ashes.

At the same time, the earthly python roared angrily and inhaled the two curses again.

Woooo

With a loud bang, two curses were completely pulled out of the Dream Eater Butterfly in the swallowing of the earthly python, screaming and throwing it into its mouth to become food.

The soul fire burned brightly, merging into the body, the flame light gradually faded, and the dream-eating butterfly gradually returned to its original state, once again shrouded in black and purple aura.

"Whew-"

Half a minute later, Talos, who had fully recovered, breathed a sigh of relief, and the time between feeling the curse and the earthly python devouring the curse was less than twenty seconds, but the danger was only fully felt by him.

It was also Talos who underestimated the two very special curses of weakness and decay, who would have thought that they carried the shadow of spell activation, and subconsciously regarded them as the same as the high-level nightmare curses encountered during the previous adventure, thinking that as long as the earthly python could solve it with one bite, so he didn't call Medusa again, otherwise he wouldn't have been so embarrassed just now, almost collapsed from the body to the spirit, and also triggered the self-protection mechanism of the soul fire.

"Although the Curse of Weakness and the Curse of Decay are both the basis of black magic, both of which are of the first order, but after having self-awareness, the effect catches up with the fourth order, and the three aspects of the body, soul, and energy attack at the same time, and it is also because I have the soul fire and the help of the earthly python that I can lift the curse in a short time. ”

"Curse, curse, even if the other party is not a witch, he is a person related to a witch. It seems that my movements in Sidon City have been discovered. No—"

Talos thought of the delegation of mages sent out at the previous time, calculating the time, they should arrive in Pisa City.

Thinking of this, Talos analyzed a possibility: "The man who cursed me is in the city of Pisa!"
