Chapter 239: The Cursed Poet

The iron hoop of the palm clasped the human's wrist, and the force pulled it towards the seemingly shabby but tough chestnut cage. The guard, who wanted to take advantage of it, slammed into the cage, and before he could react to the sudden attack, his white, slender palm was already tightly choking his throat.

"If I were you, I'd think it through before making a choice. The Children of the Abyss said in a calm and indifferent tone to the man whose life was already in his own hands.

The guard, who finally realized something, struggled as if to shout a warning to his companion, but the overwhelming pressure on his throat made his face flush and he was unable to make an effective cry for help. Andrei let go of the man's wrist and easily snatched the black bread from his little arm, and the guard freed from his hands clenched the palm of the son of the abyss's throat in vain, but could not shake it.

The first impression of this delicate, fair-skinned palm made people think that it should belong to those nobles who were flamboyant and flamboyant all day long, and the human guards could not have imagined that such a palm, which he once classified as a "sissy", would have the power to easily control its life.

Andre turned his head and stretched his chin to signal the orc girls next door to take the opportunity to summarize the dinner outside the cage into their own hands, and the little girl Nanali took out the bread in the basket one by one and handed it to her sisters with a surprised face, and then leaned on the wooden railing with excitement like those bear children who saw the super handsome transformation of the popular protagonist in the animation, waiting for her god to possess her with divine power, and then save her and her sisters by the way while saving the world.

The power of life flowed rapidly between the arms of the children of the abyss, but it was not the hand that rushed to his grip on the human's throat - Andre held the black bread in his mouth, and his free left hand grasped the wooden cage railing under the guard's nose, and the powerful force of the dragon strike made this seemingly weak palm produce a strange change in the human eye, causing his pupils to shrink sharply.

The five fingers of the Abyss's left hand slowly but firmly "sank" into the chestnut railing with a tooth-aching squeezing sound! The incredibly huge grip did what mortals needed steel tools to do under everyone's noses, and Andre's left hand left a clear grip mark on the chestnut pole that was enough to make people feel shocking!

Probably no normal person would confidently think that his neck is tougher than the chestnut wood produced in the north, and the man who has begun to tremble is obviously not able to go beyond the category of "normal people".

"Do you think you can hold me up with such a ridiculous cage?" The Son of the Abyss, who had just finished the transformation from villain to protagonist in front of everyone, said coldly in a tone that gave up on me and looked at the world, "Although you have made some very rude actions in front of me, for the sake of you, you are just obeying people's orders, and I don't care about you." But if you want to take the opportunity to do something superfluous, I advise you to weigh yourself first next time. ”

"Of course, I wasn't here because of a little worm like you, but I wouldn't mind reaching out and pinning it to death if there was some unself-aware guy bouncing around in front of my eyes. A blood-red aura of magic poured down Andrei's right hand into the guard's body, and the man who ran headlong into the declining god because of his boring desire could only struggle in horror and futility before watching as an unknown force burrowed into his body.

AndrΓ© seemed to have suddenly lost interest in the human guards whose lives were in his own hands, and instead focused on a stubborn grass growing between the cracks in the rocks. He gently flicked the delicate green plant with the fingers of his right hand, as if the ill-fated humble life in front of him was far more worthy of attention than he could easily pinch a human to death, and his left hand grasped the guard's neck without the slightest relaxation.

As the girls and the human men waited for the next move of the Children of the Abyss with their own mixed feelings, the turquoise grass underwent a strange change under their gaze.

The grass, which had been weak but vibrant, turned yellow and wilted at a visible rate, as if it had been exposed to the scorching sun for several days in this short period of time. However, there was no blazing sunlight in the cold, damp cell of this cell, and anyone in their right mind could see that the grass withered so quickly must have come from the hand of the mysterious half-elf in front of him.

"The power of the curse is already lurking within you. Andrei explained to the human guards with a smile on his face, and such a smile fell into the eyes of the other party, but it became the conceit of the person who controlled life and death, "Do you feel that your heart is beating wildly without restraint, as if you want to get rid of the restraints of your chest?"

The half-elf, who had been equivalent to death in the eyes of humans, turned his head to look at the grass that had turned yellow again, and said something that seemed to have nothing to do with him: "If I were you, I would be smarter, when nothing happened, otherwise the body would not be able to withstand the curse power lurking in the heart, and it would not be a wonderful experience to bleed to death." ”

After saying this, the son of the abyss let go of his left hand, which had never been relaxed, with a relaxed face, as if he had just done something worthless.

"As I said earlier, I don't usually have the time to pay attention to a guy like you, when you don't mess with me. Killing you directly will only expose my plan prematurely, even if you bleed to death after walking out of this room, it will cause unnecessary suspicion of the target, if you are honest, the power of the curse will calm down after three days, and disappear into invisibility within half a month. ”

"If you're clever and you've caused some unnecessary trouble...... You should understand, I hate the guys who ruined my plans and my heart's work. Andre's eyes were cold, but the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, "If you understand, go and do your duty." Remember, I will not trouble you if you are not bored with me. ”

The hapless human guard didn't say a word the whole time when he faced Andre, he glanced at the Children of the Abyss with trepidation, and then began to rub the finger marks on his neck, as if trying to dissipate what had just happened in this room like a red mark on his neck that had begun to fade. He remained in the cell for a long time, and finally left the only entrance to the cell without saying a word and bowing his head in despair.

When the footsteps faded away, Nanali whispered to her oracle with excitement in her heart, "Sir, will you just let him go?"

Andrei glanced at the orc girl with disgust, but then did not speak. Such silence has become unbearable and strange in the eyes of others.

"Who the hell are you!?" the wolf girl hugged Nanali tightly in her arms, as if she was very afraid that the dangerous person in front of her would suddenly burst out under her nose and do something that ordinary people could not predict.

The Children of the Abyss shook their heads amusedly, and then began to concentrate on the "coarse fiber-rich" black bread in his hand, the legendary pauper's food was actually the product of flour mixed with a lot of wheat husk, and in an era of widespread overnutrition, it could barely be called a "vegan fiber-rich" coarse grain. On days when there is not enough food and clothing, the husk of the grain is called bran, and although it can also fill the stomach, the taste and calories are not flattering. Long-term consumption of this kind of thing is like a panda eating bamboo, no matter how much you eat, it can only maintain the most basic life supply, humans and pandas are not vegetarian creatures in the real sense, and the digestive system cannot efficiently absorb and transform the nutrients contained in crude fiber plants.

Accustomed to delicate food, Andre struggled to get used to the fact that it was as hard to swallow as a paste mixed with sawdust in his mouth, and to his surprise, the three orc girls, who were obviously of carnivore blood, seemed to be "handy" when dealing with this coarse food, apparently having long been accustomed to this very special food - repeated chewing can effectively reduce the burden on the stomach and intestines when digesting and absorbing coarse grains.

Only the human girl on the other side of the room who took the bread from Nanari's hand, like the Children of the Abyss, barely browled when facing the black bread.

Dealing with the black bread didn't seem to be a bit difficult for the three orc girls, and the little girl kept muttering as she chewed, "Sir, doesn't it really matter if you let that bad guy go, what if he tells the worse ones? Wouldn't you just run away with us?"

Nanali's act of sharing food had already won her Anne's favor, and the human girl suddenly felt that the orc girl in front of her was not much different from the human girl, and they were all simple and cute.

"That scoundrel has been cursed with a deadly curse, and he'll try to pretend nothing has happened for the sake of his life. The first time she accosted the legendary savage orc, Anne's pretty face flushed to the base of her ears, and she glanced intentionally or unconsciously at the young half-elf who was sitting alone in the corner chewing and frowning. Aside from the believable performances, Anne couldn't connect him to the Bard, whether it was his ability to easily subdue a stronger human than herself, or his mysterious ability to manipulate curses.

No wonder this little girl named Nanali has so much respect for him, but she doesn't know if he is a good person or not...... Good people shouldn't be contaminated with evil forces like curses, right?

Anne thought so in her heart, but she didn't expect that the little girl who had just been used as a footnote by her would say an unbelievable answer with a look of grievance-

"But isn't the curse something that Mr. used to scare people?"

Even Andre himself didn't expect that the seemingly innocent Nanali was the one who saw through his tricks from the beginning, and the little orc girl was not as cute and ignorant as he thought, at least Naneri didn't expose his deception in front of the human guard.

Letting the grass wither is the effect achieved by the shadow magic, but the effect of this magic on healthy humans is actually very limited, those seemingly formidable blood-colored magic lights are actually just a simple mixture of life shadow magic, Andrarui has many demon warriors who can use the blood-colored life magic to cast dragon breath and dragon strike, and the life magic in the dwarven warriors' bodies is even biased towards yellow or brown. To put it simply, the difference between it and ordinary life magic is not very obvious, and as for the heart-pounding "cursed call", it is even more of a shoddy deception.

Just like drinking alcohol in cold weather can effectively warm up and invigorate blood, for some people, alcohol is like poison through the intestines, and the life magic that is not controlled by me will naturally make the magic bear some abnormal feelings, and the heart beats faster and blood pressure soars to the point of bleeding is just alarmist, unless that guy himself has a very serious health hazard, otherwise the seemingly dangerous blood-colored magic power cannot hurt people at all. At least in terms of Andrei's current ability, he can't "kill invisibly" yet.

The Children of the Abyss were certain that the withered grass around them would be restored to life and become intact in a few days, and for this weak and strong life, the slightest tearing off a few leaves would be more deadly than the so-called curse. The same force can even pull out a few hairs from a person's body, and a few hairs are naturally insignificant, but the curse that "formless and insubstantial" even weeds cannot kill can have a more far-reaching impact on humans who are far more powerful than weeds. The consciousness of intelligent beings, or the human heart, is sometimes such a wonderful thing.

What surprised him was that the little orc girl, who had always seemed to be scheming, was the only one who saw through this deception, could it be because her acting skills were exaggerated but she was completely unself-aware!?

"Don't worry, Nanali, even if this guy in front of us is not reliable, someone will come to our rescue soon!" the wolf girl hugged the little girl in her arms, gently stroked her hair, and comforted her gently. Although the orcs mostly looked down on those who played with their schemes, she had to admit that she had underestimated this handsome woman-like half-elf, and as the daughter of a tribal chief, she knew that wisdom was often superior to the force that everyone admired. The guy in front of him looks very powerful, but he knows how to forbear, I don't know if it will become a variable in the plan?...... It just looks too thin.

The Son of the Abyss doesn't have anything to say to the ungrateful neighbor next door, although he also wants to make things a little simpler, but he doesn't have the strength to kill seven in and seven out in the crowd, and sometimes it's better to think long-term. But just as Andre was chewing on his mouth full of "wood slag" with a bitter face, and repeatedly pondering his plans that he felt were unreliable, another unexpected thing happened-

The human guard, who had just been taught a lesson, brought into the cell a fat man who was well-dressed but gave the same obscene impression.

Could it be that this guy realized so quickly that he had been deceived!?--Is he underestimating everyone's IQ or overestimating the independence and cherishing of his own life by these little people!?

The Children of the Abyss found that they didn't have the subordinates and people who trusted them for free, and they suddenly began to lose their play.
