Chapter 349: Curse
"Without further ado, we'll leave right away."
The king didn't give the other two Templar mages much time to think, and after making a decision, he quickly opened a portal in front of him.
With the opening of the portal.
The screams quickly reached their ears, and from time to time, there were even the demons' roars that didn't know whether they were excited or roaring.
Without waiting for Erin and the others to see the scene on the other side of the portal.
A figure with its head bowed and a somewhat staggered figure rushed in from the other end of the portal, and almost hit the king headfirst.
Well?
The golden light flashed at the king's feet, and while quickly avoiding the figure, his brow frowned, and he looked at the slightly stumbling figure with displeasure.
"Giggle······
Under the gaze of Erin and the others, a strange sound came out from the figure, and then a miserable white face looked up at Erin and the others in front of the portal in a strange posture.
Pale!
This is by no means a rhetorical exaggeration, but a real whiteness.
It was as if a layer of hoarfrost had been applied to the body, without the slightest color of blood, without the slightest anger, like a corpse that had been stored for a long time.
Perhaps, this is a corpse.
On the white, bloodless face, the eyes were sunken, and the pale skin beside the eye sockets was cracked, and the two eyeballs stood out, covered with swimming black silk threads.
With the movement of those two black eyes, a creepy aura instantly spread.
"Be careful."
In the midst of two exclamations.
The king's hands shook, and two rotating golden-red magic shields quickly condensed out.
However, he had not yet waited for the magic shield in his hand, which could be used as both a shield and a war hammer, to be fully formed.
Erin, who was standing not far away, pulled out the [Dragon Slayer] with a flick of his right hand, and then pulled the trigger without hesitation.
"Bang!"
In the shocking roar, a black light bullet that seemed to carry a dragon shadow shot out from the muzzle of the gun, directly bursting the miserable white head.
Even the headless corpse was directly blasted out by an illusory dragon shadow.
"Boom!"
After being knocked out for dozens of meters, and then falling to the ground and kicking up a cloud of smoke, the headless corpse could only stop, and there was no longer any life.
"Quack Quack ······"
However, before it was quiet for a few seconds, the headless corpse moved again, and black hair slowly grew from the corpse, spreading like life to the surroundings.
Immediately afterwards, the headless corpse, in the midst of the abnormal sound of joints twisting and breaking, like a marionette, regained its body in a strange posture that completely violated the structure of the human body.
It was clear that they had no brains, but Erin and the others all felt a resentful gaze that was almost substantial, and they were staring at them deadly.
In the face of this strange scene, Erin still had a calm expression, just as the black hair spread, like a black wave trying to swallow them.
On Erin's wrist, a stream of golden-red flames rose in vain.
In the blink of an eye, a stream of golden-red flames surged towards the black wave that swept towards Erin.
"Zizi Zi ······"
Almost instantly, the black wave composed of strands of black hair was incinerated into ashes under the golden-red flame stream, and the remaining golden-red flame stream swept towards the headless corpse that seemed to be the source.
At the same time.
A burnt smell mixed with a disgusting smell spread out in an instant.
Just by smelling it, a feeling of dizziness quickly rises.
【Wind of Vatum】
A Templar mage who realized that something was wrong immediately stretched out his hands and summoned a powerful air current, directly sweeping the gas mixed with poisonous gas into the distance.
At the same time, a faint golden-red protective shield quickly formed around them, keeping the remaining rising poisonous gas out of the protective shield.
Then the wind fuels the fire.
Under the blowing of this powerful air current, the golden-red flame stream suddenly burst into flames, setting off a sea of fire several meters high, directly swallowing the headless corpse without a head.
"Zizi Zi ······"
In the golden-red firelight, the dark hair was faintly distorted wildly, and strange shrill voices came out, but under the eternal fire that was as eternal as the poison of the tarsal bones, everything was finally calm.
【Ding! 】
After killing the unknown ghost, just like the previous killing of the bride, a crisp prompt suddenly sounded in Erin's mind.
After confirming the ghost's death in another way through that prompt, Erin didn't pay attention to the alert in his head.
Because almost at the same time as the unknown ghost died, a little boy with a bare body and dark eyes without a trace of whites suddenly poked into half of his head from the other side of the portal.
It's just that unlike ordinary little boys, this little boy's body seems to be illusory.
And unlike the previous goblin that was easily dealt with by Erin.
In the little boy who poked half of his head into the portal, Erin felt a boundless resentment and despair that seemed to want to drown the whole world.
In Erin's eyes.
This little boy with a somewhat illusory body is not a ghost or an evil spirit at all, but the embodiment of resentment.
The illusory body seemed to be connected to an endless ocean of resentment, an ocean of terror that would make anyone feel hopeless.
Behind the little boy, a slightly old Japanese house looms through the portal.
In the old Japanese-style house, a vague female figure loomed behind the window on the second floor of the house.
The moment he saw the vague female figure, a sense of crisis that made Erin creepy rose in vain.
The moment he felt this breath, Erin's face changed dramatically and he shouted at Wang, "Close the portal, quickly." ”
At the same time as he snorted, Erin's spiritual power surged.
Suddenly, the unquenched sea of fire behind him swept towards the little boy who seemed to want to step into the portal under Erin's manipulation.
Looking at the golden-red sea of fire that exuded a terrifying heat wave, sweeping towards him, the little boy who had poked most of his head into the portal seemed to be startled, and his body subconsciously shrank back.
And the king, who was drunk by Ai Lin, although he didn't know what was going on, the trust he had accumulated by fighting side by side not long ago still allowed him to cooperate with Ai Lin to close the portal in front of him as quickly as possible.
"Zila······"
As the last circle of golden-red flames was extinguished, the portal in front of the king suddenly dissipated.
And after losing the goal.
The overwhelming sea of golden-red fire, after a circle, quickly shrunk one after another, condensed into a true eternal fire, and then submerged into the [Zhurong Phalange] on Erin's wrist.
Until this time.
The king, who had just been drunk by Erin's powerful words, turned his head to look at Erin with some puzzlement.
"What's the matter, why did you suddenly tell me to close the portal just now, is it because of the yin spirit that appeared in front of the portal just now? Is he strong? ”
"Yin Spirit !!"
Without waiting for Erin to answer, Metis, who was also taken aback, said with an ugly face: "Idiot, is that a yin spirit?" Can't you even tell the difference between a spirit and a curse? ”
Curse?
As Metis said, the little boy who poked half of his head into the portal just now was not a so-called yin spirit, evil spirit, or fierce spirit or something.
Rather, it was part of a terrifying curse that almost condensed into the rules.
The little boy naked, the woman standing behind the window behind the portal, and the old, resentful Japanese-style house filled with boundless resentment and despair all the time probably combined to form that almost regular and terrifying curse.
What is Rule Curse?
To put it simply, this is a special existence born by chance under special circumstances and conditions.
The curse of the rule system is formless and insubstantial, but once the rule mechanism of this curse is touched, then you will be entangled in the curse and use this near-regular curse to kill.
This curse that has almost become a rule doesn't care about your identity and status, or even your strength, as long as you don't have the strength and means to compete with that rule mechanism.
Then it is impossible to escape the near-certain death.
After listening to Erin and Metis's explanations, the king and the other two Templar mages were taken aback.
Although they hadn't recognized the little boy as part of a rule-based curse, that didn't mean they hadn't heard of it.
In Kama Taj's library, the terrible curse of this rule is clearly recorded.
And Wang, who works part-time as a Kama Taj librarian, has a green face after realizing that the humble little boy is actually part of the curse rules.
If it weren't for Arryn forcing the curse back with flames, allowing him to close the portal in time.
Once entangled by this cursed rule, except for Arryn, who has many means and unfathomable strength.
I'm afraid that none of them will survive.
"Hell, it's just a portal to open, before we can leave, a ghost rushed in first, and then even the rule curse came out, Wang, what kind of luck are you, you haven't washed your hands in the toilet for ten years, and your luck is not as bad as yours."
A Templar Mage, who was also taken aback, complained angrily to the king after reacting.
Although the other Templar Mage was also frightened, after thinking for a while, he said in a deep voice:
"It's not all about the king's luck, I feel that the ghost who rushed into the portal first may have been frightened by the curse of the rules, so he rushed into the portal that the king just opened, of course, the king's hand smell is also a fact, otherwise the portal would not have been opened to that kind of place, and we will open the portal later."
At the reminder of the other Templar Mage.
Erin suddenly remembered that the king's portal just now seemed to have just opened to the door of the Japanese-style house.
Judging from the location of the portal, the ghost who rushed into the portal at the beginning ran out of the Japanese-style house in a panic and plunged into the portal opened by the king.
It seems to be frightened by the curse of the rules in that house.
Erin, who kept flashing memories in his mind.
Suddenly I remembered that on the door wall behind the translucent little boy, there was a door sign stained with ashes.
On the old door number, the words Tsuyo Saeki loomed.
【Tsuyo Saeki】
Well.
Tsuyoshi Saeki ······ The name seems to have some attributes.
The naked little boy, the vague female figure, the old Japanese-style house, and the desperate horror of resentment, and the name Takeo Saeki.
Damn it.
That house just now, it can't be the house of the coconuts in the curse, right?
In that case, the rule curse just now is legendary.
The one who is almost incomprehensible, once he steps into that house, whether it is good or bad, innocent or not, no matter where he flees, will eventually be killed by a curse - curse.
Come to think of it.
Erin was suddenly glad that the portal that the king had opened at that time was outside the gate of the Japanese house, not inside the gate.
Otherwise, the devil knows if the curse would have entangled them through the portal.
Although movies are movies, and reality is reality, they have all penetrated into the Marvel Universe, and who knows if there will be one more curse at this time.
And.
Even if the curse is not as powerful and unsolvable as in the movie, it is a very troublesome thing to solve this curse that has become a rule.
Arryn didn't want to get into this kind of trouble if he didn't have to.
········
Although Wang kept emphasizing that it was just an accident just now, it was some special power after the opening of the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk that interfered with his portal.
But the other two frightened Templars insisted.
In the end, it was another older Templar mage named Zhang Tao who took over the task of opening the portal.
Under Zhang Tao's cautious gaze, this time the portal opened in an alley outside Fayuan Temple.
Because Fayuan Temple is far away from the dwellings, there are no pedestrians, let alone corpses, on this alley, except for the ashes that keep falling from the sky.
After a cautious glance, he didn't find anything wrong.
While the mage Zhang Tao breathed a sigh of relief, he also believed in his heart that the accident just now was caused by Wang's unlucky luck.
After silently making the decision in his heart that he would never enter the portal opened by Wang again, he resolutely stepped out of the portal.
