Chapter 5: The Curse
"Why are you here too?" Oshous looked for a voice, and it was Wendini who spoke, and Zoffie and Churin had accompanied her.
"It's been a long time, but it's been okay lately. Zofie greeted the two politely: "Why didn't you see Miss Mira?" "Long time no see!" Osius replied, adding, "It's a long story." "Then we won't listen. The little one looks stronger than ever!" interrupted Oshous with his dislike of trouble.
"What are you doing this time!" Oshous glanced at Wentini and continued, "I guess it's not good." "You're right, hahaha. Churin laughed and said, "It's not a bad thing, it's not a good thing. ”
"It's already strong enough that it seems to be solved sooner. Wentini looked at the group of "monsters" that appeared at the entrance of the cave and said, "Zofie, Chulin, let's go." "Wait a minute, can you tell us what those things are?" I guess Wentini should know, Miyle asked.
"Well, even if I stop you, I'll follow, then I'll tell you. Wentini paused and explained to Miel, "The people who caused this disaster must be my people. The purpose of this trip is to bring them back, or to destroy them. "That is, what did the 'sleepless one' you called before, have to do with this disaster. ”
Wendini sighed and told them about the past......
The so-called 'Sleepless' was also a member of the human race, composed of several races, who fought bravely and skillfully, fought with Rosh, and made countless achievements. During the Battle of Dragon City, or the Battle of Hell's Gate, the Demon Realm sent some of their strongest men, General Higard the Shatterer and General Lokiruth the Whisperer.
After a month and a half of fighting, the human alliance finally defeated them and successfully sealed the "Gates of Hell". But just before Lochirus died, a powerful curse was placed on the remnants of the troops. At night, they become insane and bloodthirsty, and during the day they become ordinary people and forget what happened last night, only some of the strong-willed people can resist this urge, and the rest begin to become like demons. Over time, there has been a case of demonization even during the day.
Losh tried countless ways to remove the curse from them, so he had no choice but to order the removal of the warriors who had assimilated with the demons. The rest begged Losh to exile him and never set foot in human territory until the last of them were gone.
Now Oshous understood why Wentini was doing everything possible to find a way to heal her people, and it turned out that what she was carrying was far from being as calm as she appeared. Perhaps that's why she's so powerful.
After Wendini explained the origin to them, he continued: "Do you remember the last time you killed Morgan and took a few dragon bones? Some elders in the tribe saw that the situation on the mainland was turbulent and hoped to dominate again, but in the end they were rejected by most of the clansmen and the team leader. Ancient texts record dragon bones that could suppress the power of their clansmen, but they stole them and used them to strengthen their own strength. ”
"It took us a lot of effort to catch up with them, and we thought they were weird, but now it's better, it's even more bizarre. Churin couldn't figure out how to describe them.
"What is their strength now, and is there a chance that the five of us will win against such a large number. Miel roughly estimated the combat strength of the two sides and asked Wentini in front of him.
"At the moment it seems that they should not have fully mastered the new powers. Wentini thought for a moment, then continued: "After several days of our pursuit, only three people are missing, and two of them are not strong. The rest of the man was also a great magician, and had learned a lot of forbidden arts. The monster you see is the hero who was awakened by him and died in battle. The hateful fellow dares to play with the souls of the dead, and only he cannot forgive. "As warriors, the best end is their eternal rest, and disturbing the souls of the fallen in battle is an unpardonable sin for anyone.
By this time, the army had already dealt with the monsters that had appeared, and the officers, after arguing with the magicians again, led their men towards the mine.
"No, if these people are controlled, we don't have a chance. Wendini said to Zofie and Churin, "He must be defeated before them, and our people must be dealt with by us." "Wait, we're partners anyway. Oshous hurriedly stopped Wentiny, who was leaving, and said, "We'll definitely help if your partner is in trouble, right, Miel." "Hmm. Miel replied simply, though not for this purpose, that he chose to go with him in the end.
"Well, there's a tunnel nearby that leads deeper into the mine. After saying that, he walked ahead and led the way for everyone. Along the way, Osius and Chulin kept talking.
"It's here. Wentini stopped, flashing his sword and shield, revealing through the moonlight's sporadic figures. The monsters sensed the arrival of outsiders and began to attack everyone. Just a face-to-face effort was easily solved by everyone. After Zofie chanted briefly, a pale green glow emanated from the surroundings. Oshous on the side stared at him intently, "Most of the elves know magic. "It seems to feel an unusual gaze," Zofie explained.
The deeper you go, the more monsters appear and the power you become.
"Wentiny, are you here to gain this power too?" a deep voice sounded in the passageway, "Your power will surpass all of us if you wish, and we will continue to follow you." "Huton, give up that ominous power, the tribe still welcomes you back. Wendini shouted in the direction the voice was coming from. "I thought you could understand, but it seems so stupid. After a few laughs, it disappeared, and Wentini did not respond no matter how much she tried.
"In that case, I had to destroy him. Wendini finished and led the others in the direction where Hughton was.
A sound of footsteps sounded from the depths, and everyone stood alert in the direction of the sound. A dwarf dressed in tattered armor and dragging a warhammer appeared before them. "Mound, mound mound and forest. Help, help me. The dwarf said in a staccato voice. "Leave it to me, Moy. For man's sake, it will give you a good night's sleep, and it may hurt a little. Chulin in the team took out his hammer and slammed it down on Moy.
"Roar, roar!" Moy moved quickly, raising his hammer to meet Chulin's attack. "I said man, it's a little different than I said yes. After charging up, Chulin attacked again.
Oshous took off his greatsword and was about to step forward to help Chulin, but was stopped by Wentini: "The last dignity of being a warrior, let them solve it themselves." Zoffie nodded to Osius from the side, and in desperation, he lowered his weapon and looked anxiously at the two men fighting.
After a few rounds of fighting, Churin, after dodging Moy's attack, smashed him into the wall with both hands. "I hope you can have a good dream, man. He raised his hammer and smashed it on his head, and after making sure that he was no longer moving, he dug a large pit in the same place and buried him, and then stood silently beside him. No one bothered him.
"Let's go, maybe we'll see old acquaintances again. After a few minutes, Chulin spoke to the people behind him. After inquiring with Zoffie, he learns that Moy is Chulin's younger brother.
"Maybe we can save him, isn't there still a chance?" Oshous said to Chulin, puzzled. "He's not out of this world anymore, that's enough. After a few laughs, he continued, "Dwarves without beards are enemies, hahaha." Hearing the bitterness in his tone, Osius stopped asking.
At this point, Wendini walked up to him. "It's about half of my strength when I was alive. Without waiting for Windini to ask, Churin replied. Wendini nodded and walked to the front.
"I said, Miyle, what would you do if you were in such a situation?" "Since they are family, even if they meet in a different way, will there not be a little joy? Oshous really couldn't figure it out. "I don't know. Miel said bluntly.
Hughton's voice sounded again: "I really don't miss the old relationship at all, and I thought that when my family members who have been separated for many years meet, the scene should be more touching, I'm so disappointed!"
"Hughton, how long are you going to play with the Heroic Spirits of the dead!" Wentiny's tone was angry. "All we have done is to fulfill their wishes during their lifetimes, to complete the unfulfilled plans of His Highness Losh! His long-cherished wish will be fulfilled by us for him, a truly unified continent. Hahaha!"
"Shut up, you don't deserve the name of Talosh at all, Your Highness never wanted to use such a method. Wentini retorted, "Covering up your crimes in the name of Losh will end up with the judgment you deserve!"
"Then let's see, only the victor is right!"
More footsteps rang out in the passage behind him. Without knowing the truth and truth, everyone had to run towards the deeper passage ahead. "It seems to be tempting us. "Miale noticed something was wrong.
"Ahead there should be a awakening of the mighty dead, hoping to destroy us with their power. Perhaps we can find those who have fallen more quickly. Wentini said as the knuckles of her grip on the hilt of her sword turned white, and she could see how angry she was.
After a short time, everyone came to a relatively open place. There are already "people" waiting for them. "Looks like you're right, Boss!" a gentle voice reached everyone's ears.
"It's been a long time!
