Chapter 17: Mutation

The almost formless black shadow slowly stuck to Sha Lan's body from behind, turning into a trace of black smoke around Sha Lan's body, making Sha Lan's already somewhat tired body more and more sleepy.

Yawning, Sha Lan felt that his body suddenly became very tired, he looked at the stone in his hand and put it on the table, and then suddenly took out a hammer from the drawer and smashed the stone violently, at the moment when the stone was smashed, Sha Lan obviously felt that the strange tiredness that had just wrapped around his whole body was instantly swept away and returned to his original appearance.

With a narrowing of his eyes, Sharan knew that the abrupt situation just now was really because of this stone, but fortunately he decisively smashed the stone, otherwise he didn't know what would have happened.

You must know that the meaning of the existence of this stone is to assist Shalan's research, since Shalan has translated and appended all the spells written in Mansmei on the stone, there is naturally no need to keep this stone, and the abrupt situation just now is really a bit dangerous, so when Shalan felt that something was wrong, he decisively smashed the stone and relieved the stone's interference with him.

At this time, the black smoke that had been around Shalan's body, after he smashed the stone, slowly dissipated from Shalan's body like a sourceless fire.

I have to say that fortunately, the piece of paper and this stone were found by Shalan, so he was able to react in time, otherwise once the piece of paper and stone were really put in the pot of the velvet snowflake, and Shalan didn't know at all, then under the influence of the curse on it, Shalan had no way to resist the subtle power of the curse, and then it would really be left to Vanessa and Shaman, their mother and son.

Relieved, Sharan got up and picked up the pieces of the stones in the trash can, but at this moment, he suddenly saw that inside a large piece of stone, there was a white crystal the size of a fingernail of a little finger, and he took out a pair of tweezers from the drawer and removed the white crystal from the stone fragment.

After observing with a magnifying glass for a while, when Sha Lan's experience as a tomb robber in his previous life determined that this white crystal was not a radioactive and highly toxic substance, he reached out and pinched the white crystal in his hand and looked it up and down.

"There was nothing inside those stone fragments, nothing like an energy circuit to conduct energy, just this white crystal.

In addition to those cursed spells, this white crystal is likely to be the reason why the stone can release the curse, this thing should be something similar to the energy core, and its function is to provide energy to the stone.

Just by relying on the white crystal that supplies energy, and the cursed spell, you can release a curse that is obviously uncomfortable, what is the principle of this?

If I hold this white crystal to write, or recite a curse incantation, can I use this curse as well?"

Thinking of this, Sharan pinched the white crystal with his index finger and thumb, hesitated for a moment, but still whispered the cursed incantation in Mance's American language.

With Sha Lan's recitation, he could clearly see that the white crystal in his hand was slowly emitting a faint white light, and he could feel a trace of heat gushing out of the white crystal, along his fingers, arms, and even his eyebrows.

In the midst of this influx of heat, Sharan could feel a dull pain in his eyebrows, his brows furrowed slightly, and Sharan immediately prepared to stop chanting the incantation.

But to his surprise, even after stopping the chanting of the mantra, the remaining half of the spell quickly appeared in his mind, and his brain subconsciously recalled the complete spell.

When the complete spell came to mind, the energy in the white crystals poured into Shalan's body, and it itself turned into white ashes flowing out of Shalan's hands.

The heat flowed into his eyebrows along Shalan's arm, and the dull pain that was originally just a stream became a sharp pain like tearing the eyebrows apart, and Shalan faintly felt that something seemed to bulge up in the center of his eyebrows, as if a new organ had grown out of thin white, it seemed that there was no change in the center of Shalan's eyebrows, but it felt that Shalan could clearly feel the existence of that thing!

"Ahh

With a low groan, Sharan fell to his knees, holding his head in both hands, enduring the sharp pain in his eyebrows.

"Damn, shit, what the hell is going on......! Sure enough, it's still too reckless!"

Gritting his teeth tightly, Sha Lan stretched out his hand to support the desk and got up, intending to go out to find someone to help, but at this time, Sha Lan suddenly felt that a small hole seemed to have broken in the center of his eyebrows, and an inexplicable force accompanied by pain gushed out of his eyebrows, producing a unique vibration.

The pain subsided, and Shalan's face turned slightly pale as he looked at the black smoke slowly swimming in front of him, and as soon as his mind moved, the black smoke swirled around him and then returned to him again.

"What is this? Could it be something I used to recite a spell? If this is the case, then it means that this black smoke must be the same curse as the paper and stone, but the sharp pain just now, and the change in my eyebrows, do not seem to be able to be explained by the simple successful use of the curse. ”

While Sha Lan was thinking about these things, the black smoke suddenly shook slightly, slowly dissipating into the void, and the power that gushed out of Sha Lan's eyebrows also quickly dissipated, making Sha Lan immediately feel mentally exhausted, as if he had thought about thousands of questions in less than a minute just now.

Sitting down in a chair, Sharan closed her eyes and recovered slightly for a moment before continuing to think.

"The power that poured out of my eyebrows just now should be some kind of energy that belongs to me, and I can use it to wield extraordinary power like this curse.

And by the black smoke of the curse just now dissipating on its own, it can be judged that once this curse is used, there is also a time limit, and within the time limit, I can control it like a finger.

Similarly, after casting the curse, the power at the center of my eyebrows will also be consumed, but I wonder if this power can recover on its own?"
