"This no-go zone...... I remembered. ”

The plan has been decided, Sulu turned around and left.

This time, he wasn't even going to go back to Lux, anyway, Detective Sean's identity was fake, what's so scary?

I can't imagine that a spirit that doesn't kill people would be involved in this kind of horror behind it, which is simply incredible.

"Is this the risk on the mystical side?"

Sulu muttered, "I'm so lucky to be able to get out of it......"

He retreated quickly, without looking at Lenny's 'graveyard', and in the blink of an eye he was on the edge of the Black Forest.

But at this moment, his expression changed!

The original outer periphery of the Black Forest, in his eyes, suddenly expanded outward, making the border indefinite.

"What?"

The white chain on Sulu's right hand appeared, and his face was full of vigilance: "The horror of the ancient mansion...... Not over yet? It turns out that this black forest is also part of the ancient mansion, or is it the infiltration of power? ”

He looked at his stat bar, and sure enough, he found something in the state:

[Status: Curse of the Ancient House]

[Curse of the Ancient House: Any living creature that steps into the ancestral house of Angus Gold will encounter a terrible demonic curse, which will end in the complete destruction of one party!] 】

The simple description of the attribute bar made Sulu's face twitch: "I'm a ...... Is the tide finally capsizing? ”

Once, surviving the Inner Ring War involving Legendary-level professionals did make him feel a little more proud and complacent.

But Charles, a mediocre ancient mansion, gave Sulu a blow to the head!

Anything can happen on the mystical side!

He had been able to have a smooth ride before, but it was just luck.

Like this time, with a little wave, the boat capsizes.

"Will it end with the destruction of one side? This means...... If I want to lift the curse, I have to destroy the ancient mansion? ”

Sulu glanced back at the Black Forest, his scalp tingling.

If he was already a fifth-order [Brigade Mage], he might be able to give it a try, but forget it for now.

"If it weren't for the fact that I had an attribute bar, I wouldn't have been able to detect the cursed thing at all, and I wouldn't have even reminded the [Mystic] of inspiration...... In other words, it is not a damaging curse, but perhaps just a mark? The kind that will flare up every once in a while, attracting evil and dangerous things? ”

The [Occultist] has a lot of research on the spirit world, and Sulu has read a lot of miscellaneous books in the White Tower, so he has a lot of experience in things like curse marks.

"So...... It is imperative to leave the Black Forest immediately and never set foot in the old mansion again! ”

In his current cursed state, stepping into the ancient mansion again, he will definitely be attacked immediately, and he will be dead!

Even, staying in the Black Forest for a long time may be dangerous!

After all, this forest still belongs to the infiltration range of the power of the ancient house!

Sulu's inspiration is outward, forming an all-round defense, enveloping himself heavily.

Sure enough, with nuanced inspiration, something seemed wrong throughout the Black Forest.

Beneath the soil and dead leaves, black vines or tendrils wriggled like snakes, and the target was himself.

"Luckily, it's just the periphery!"

The horror of the ancient mansion reached its peak in the mansion, and the outside world was less affected.

Sulu is sure that if he escapes from this Black Forest, he will be able to buy a certain amount of time!

"Spiritual pressure!"

Bang!

He snorted coldly, and the vast spiritual pressure swept through the audience.

Cracking sound.

Beneath the ground, black roots exploded, oozing a corrosive yellow-green liquid. 、

Whining!

Many black trees shook together, as if Sulu's spiritual pressure just now had also hurt them.

"Sure enough...... Infiltrated by the power of the ancient house, did they all mess with some spiritual attributes? ”

With a shake of his right hand, Sulu's spirit chains sprang out like snakes, and a sharp pyramid hit a black wood trunk.

Burst!

At the site of the wound, black blood flowed out.

It's as if every tree here has its own life and has become a flesh-and-blood existence.

"If you don't want to die, get out of here!"

Su Lu burst into a shout, and the sound mixed with spiritual pressure continued to spread.

It's intimidation.

As long as it is life, it has a low-level instinct.

A large number of treetops shook, and gradually, one or two black trees moved away, took the initiative to pull out their roots, and made way for the way.

'Huh? Does it really work? ’

After no obstacles, Sulu quickly came to the edge of the black forest: "There is a feeling of an evil spirit enchantment, but fortunately it has not been completely formed...... Break it for me! ”

He condensed the spiritual pressure and smashed it out like a heavy hammer.

Click!

There was a sound of glass shattering in the void, and a wall of barbed wire appeared in Sulu's eyes, and the blood-red reminder on it was unusually eye-catching.

"Finally...... It's out, but fortunately, most of the power of the ancient house can't go out! ”

He let out a long sigh of relief, staring at the attribute bar again, his brow furrowed.

Although the spiritual pollution was removed last time, the next 'curse of the ancient house' is obviously more troublesome.

"What to do? With my own strength, I am afraid that I will not be able to destroy the ancient mansion...... Have you been carrying a curse all the time? No way! This kind of thing is sure to summon doom and calamity......"

Sulu gritted his teeth with hatred.

Before leaving, he really didn't expect that this ancient mansion would be so aimed at living creatures, and it would be open to spirits.

Yesterday he was simply peeking into a spirit, and he was not cursed.

But now, it's too late to say that.

"To destroy it and lift the curse, my strength alone is far from enough, I need help! Neither the Commonwealth nor the Church is viable......"

The Federation and the Church obviously knew the danger of the ancient mansion, and because the horror of the other side was too high and the cost of destruction was too great, they both gave up their plans to destroy it and only blocked it.

This shows that the law has been figured out, and the ancient house will only harm one area.

It is impossible to restart the war now because he is alone, it is too cost-effective, not to mention that there may be other risks.

"This time it's really a ......"

Walking out of the blockade area and coming to Charles City, Sulu couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the curse mark that still existed tenaciously on the attribute bar.

"This mission was a big failure...... There is no need to go back to Clinton Manor, and there is no need to think about the final payment, but fortunately, I have the first payment and the additional golden dragon with me......"

Sulu found a random hotel to settle down in, and began to think about what to do next.

This ancient mansion is so dangerous, the family that arranges it is definitely a top-notch demon family, and the means left behind must be very sharp.

"Alas......"

After thinking about it for a long time, Sulu was ready to take one step at a time and gather experience from other aspects first.

In any case, there is nothing wrong with improving your strength.

"Other than that...... It's just looking for reinforcements, at least at the master level, the best one who is good at spiritual combat...... Fight for the level of the ancient house! ”
