Chapter 70: Ask

Curse is a very special kind of magic, different from the curse attached to the dark magic used by Lina, pure curses are generally very vicious, and extremely difficult to break, and the duration is also very long, as short as three years and five years, and as long as a lifetime.

Although the curse magic is classified as a dark system, it does not need to have a dark elemental affinity, as long as there is enough mental power, strictly speaking, any mage of any system can cast it.

Another characteristic of cursed magic is that it is difficult for the caster to notice, and it is possible to either feel a sudden chill in the body, a tingling pain, or even a sudden palpitation. But no matter what it feels, it is fleeting, and it is easy for people to think that it is their own delusion, but they are unconsciously on the way.

Judging from Arnal's description, Leach believes that the probability of her being cursed is not small.

"It's nothing, it's just a moment of curiosity!" thought so, but Leach didn't say his guess, only vaguely.

First, curse magic rarely appears on the mainland, otherwise Anar would not have been able to determine the cause of his illness by now, and secondly, Leach happened to receive a commission from Wright to think of this aspect, and he was not sure, in case his guess was wrong, he didn't want to let Anal's mother and daughter have hope and then disappoint again.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Leach kept the matter to heart, and planned to find the phantom crystal and give it a try to Anal to see if she could cure her illness once and for all.

"By the way, Leach, you haven't said why you suddenly remembered me. After calming Nicole, Arnal asked. Anal looked at Leach's vague words, but did not continue to ask, she was not the kind of person who broke the casserole and asked to the end.

"That's right, Sister Anar, we have recently received a commission to go to the prairie, and we hope to get some news from you. ”

"Then you are asking the right person, tell me, what do you want to know from me?"

"I heard that there are two very old tribes in the savannah, called the Wind Owl and the Frost Wolf, Sister Anar, can you tell us about these two tribes?"

"It's simple. The two tribes of Wind Owl and Frostwolf have been in a state of hostility to each other for a long time, and even the opposing sides can't tell exactly why. These two tribes are the only two large tribes in the steppes with a fixed gathering place, and their gathering place is located on the edge of the Death Desert deep in the savannah. If you want to go to them for information, I suggest you choose one of them, and don't be greedy for both. ”

"Why is that?" said Leach, curious.

"Because the hatred between the two tribes is so deep, so deep that even the guests of the other tribe are hated together, if they know that you have gone to your own hostile tribe, then wait to be hunted down by the whole tribe, if you are unlucky, you will be hunted down by both tribes at the same time. ”

"So ruthless?" Listening to Arnal's words, Leach couldn't help but be secretly speechless, and at the same time very glad that he came here in advance to inquire about the news with her. His original plan was to investigate both tribes, but if he really did that, let alone looking for the phantom crystal, whether he could walk safely in the prairie would become a problem.

"We remembered. Also, I heard that there is a relic in the desert deep in the steppe, is this true?" Although Wright said that the information was not true, Leach decided to ask Anar, a local.

"I think I've heard of it, but I don't know much about the desert where my family lives, so I'm afraid I can't give you a definite answer to that, but as far as I've heard, it's all legends and the like. ”

"That's right...... By the way, Sister Anar, I also heard that there is a treasure in the prairie, called ...... It's called Phantom Crystal, you know?" asked Leach casually, feigning nonchalance.

"Where did you hear about it, Leach, it's just myths and legends, but you can't take it seriously. Without thinking about it, Anal replied, "Is your mission to find the Phantom Crystal?"

Leach's heart suddenly sudden, but his face was speechless: "How is it possible, I just heard my master tell some rumors on the mainland before, and this time I happened to go to the prairie, so I just asked you by the way." ”

"I see, that's right, you adventure hunters can't casually reveal the content of the commission to others, look at my brain, I almost forgot it. ”

"Alright then, let's just ask these two questions, Sister Anar, thank you for helping us out. You guys get busy first, we won't bother you, and we'll come back to see you in a few days. Little Nicole, take good care of your mother, don't make her angry, you know?" Leach was afraid that Anar would see the flaws after staying for a long time, and seeing that it was almost time for the restaurant to be busy, he decided to leave.

"Don't rush to walk just yet. Just as they were about to get up, Leach and Lena were stopped by Anar.

"Is there anything we can help with?"

"Not really. Anal shook her head, "If you want to go to the savannah, I have two pieces of advice for you. ”

Seeing that Leach was listening, Anar continued: "First, on the southeastern border of the prairie, there is a large bazaar, where you can go if you want to buy supplies. You should be driving the guide airship there, right? There is a special place to park the guide airship in the bazaar, so I suggest you park the guide airship there to be safer. Most of the grassland people are skeptical or even hostile to the guidance technology, and if you park the guidance airship on the grassland, it is very likely to be damaged. ”

Leach nodded, indicating that he had made a note of it.

"Second, when you enter the savannah, whoever you meet, it is best to identify yourself as a resident of Ambrera at the first opportunity. ”

"Why is that?"

"The Federation had wanted to conquer the entire prairie more than once to expand its territory, but it was not until the sudden rise of the empire that the Federation had no time to take care of anything else and temporarily abandoned the plan to conquer the prairie. But it has happened, many of the good men of the grassland have died at the hands of the Federation's army, and this hatred cannot be forgotten in just a hundred years. If you don't identify yourself in time, I'm afraid you'll be attacked for being considered a member of the Federation. ”

Speaking of the Federation's plan to conquer the grasslands, a trace of hatred flashed uncontrollably across Arnal's face.

Leach saw it in his eyes, and immediately had a clear understanding of this point, I am afraid that the western expedition of the Federation at that time was not just as simple as invasion, but should have done something angry and resentful, which made the steppe people still so hateful a hundred years later. It's just that Anar, as a steppe person, doesn't want to and doesn't want to say it.

"I see, Sister Anar, thank you very much. Curious about what the Federation had done, Leach couldn't help but ask.

"Finally, we grassland people are more straightforward, although there are also those who are more scheming, but most people like to go straight, and sometimes they don't like to listen to what they say, you have to be mentally prepared. ”

Leach smiled and said that he knew, in fact, from Anaar, Leach had learned a little about the straightforwardness of the prairie people, sometimes it was really not nice to speak, but after getting used to it, they would feel that they were particularly cute, and it was because of the character of their mother and daughter that many adventure hunters liked to come here to consume, after all, no one likes to associate with guys who can't guess their true thoughts.
