Chapter 490 Two Curses

Those mysterious knowledge hidden under common sense or even contrary to common sense are difficult for ordinary people to understand. Even August, who has lived from three centuries ago to today and spent a lot of energy studying witchcraft and forbidden knowledge, would be wrong. Estimate a lot of things. He didn't know the true identity of the angry spirit. He just made a judgment based on the voices he kept hearing in his hallucinations. He believed that "that dark monster" was divided into two parts by the witch, and one part was suppressed in the frozen soil of Siberia. Deep down, another part clung to him. Under this judgment, he made the decision to keep a distance from the Andre family, and strictly limited the frequency of his contact with the Andre family based on the witchcraft knowledge collected from God knows where: these are those weird and obscure The source of the letter.

Many of the measures he took seemed ridiculous and useless to real experts, but at least the decision to "stay away from Siberia" was a wise one, especially after he took something out of the room, Vivian was even more convinced of this.

August came to Vivian holding a black wooden box with a complex structure, and offered it with both hands: "The stone is inside."

"What is this box for?" Vivian looked at the wooden box curiously, "Why does it look familiar to me?"

August was surprised: "Have you forgotten? This is also what you gave me back then. You also specifically asked me and my descendants to keep this box properly because you said you might come to pick it up one day - I just At first I thought you were here just for this box.”

"Really?" Vivian frowned, "Oh, it seems I still forgot something."

As she spoke, she opened the wooden box and saw the inconspicuous gadget inside: "This is the second piece - there is indeed a part of the power of the angry spirit left on it. It seems that I was careless and over-exhausted my power back then. Notice."

Hao Ren saw a palm-sized oval object lying quietly in the box. It was indeed different from the first device saved by the Andre family. The surface of this thing has a pattern of concentric circles, with a small penetrating hole in the middle. Other than that, no unevenness can be seen.

It's hard to tell from the outside that this thing has anything to do with the first device.

"They are some inexplicable gadgets. What is the origin of the angry spirit?" Hao Ren muttered, casually taking out the triangular gadget from his pocket and tentatively bringing the two "stones" together. "No response. ?”

He picked up two strange-looking "Wrathful Spirit Relics" and gestured back and forth, bringing them together or lightly hitting each other, but neither of them made a sound or saw a light indicator. Lily was watching in amusement and hurriedly came over to play with it. Hao Ren hesitated before handing it over: Did he know that this husky had a hobby of collecting stones? I hope the cheap girl wouldn't take a few bites to try the taste...

However, after Lily had been fiddling with them for a long time, the situation was still the same. They showed no signs of being activated or activated: no one on site knew how to use them.

Husky had no choice but to return the stone to Hao Ren in frustration, but looking at the look of reluctance on her face, it was obvious that she really wanted to add this thing to her own treasure of dogs...

"It seems... there's something missing," the data terminal floated out and circled around the two "stones." "This unit senses that they do resonate, but the resonance signal should be sent to another device. : There are no third-party devices here, so they get no feedback and no movement.”

"Another device?" Hao Ren frowned, suddenly remembering the crack in the Raging Spirit Space, "Is it really that door? Is this stone the key to open the door?"

Hao Ren was discussing the matter of angry spirits with some half-hearted experts. August was horrified when he saw them putting two "cursed stones" together. He widened his eyes and coughed twice. : "Can't put them together..."

"It's okay, we have killed the evil spirit," Hao Renhun waved his hand carelessly. At the same time, he felt an unpleasant cold feeling in his hand when he held the second "key", and the remaining angry spirit was The breath is still lingering on this thing, "Sanba, help purify this thing."

Nangong Sanba glanced at Hao Ren: "You have a fish who is better at exorcism than me, okay? Let her shout twice."

"Oh, that's right," Hao Ren suddenly realized, then patted his chest, "Doudou, come out and brighten your voice."

The little mermaid immediately happily got out of Hao Ren's collar for most of her body. She had been paying attention to what was going on outside. Although she didn't quite understand the reason, she realized that her father needed her, so she happily touched Hao Ren's hand. She cleared her throat with the second "key stone", but before she could sing the first note, Hao Ren felt that the cold feeling in his hands was instantly cleared away.

"Let me tell you... this efficiency," Nangong Sanba looked at Hao Ren's demon-hunting fish as if it were a monster, "What exactly does this fish work like?"

Hao Ren has been struggling with this problem all day, and now he said his guess: "I suspect it has something to do with the power of Doudou's demon-hunting fish."

Nangong Sanba was stunned: "What the hell is a devil-hunting fish?"

"Not only the demon hunter fish, she also directly received the initiation of the power of the first generation of demon hunters. In terms of realm, she is almost comparable to the ancestors of demon hunters." Nangong Wuyue couldn't help but think about Doudou's messy process of obtaining power. He covered his face and said, "Brother, please stop asking. I can't explain this in two or three thousand words. I'll explain it to you slowly when I have time when I get back."

Nangong Sanba was stunned for a moment, because Hao Ren hadn't had time to explain to him that Doudou was empowered by an "Origin Sacred Artifact" and gained the power of a demon hunter. August next to him was even more frightened: he boasted that he had seen many extraordinary things in his life, but he had never seen a mermaid: especially this mermaid was only one foot long...

But in any case, he is a person who has lived for three centuries. He also witnessed the battle between werewolves and vampires back then. At this time, the old man was still very calm. Vivian glanced at him and found to her surprise that even if the aura on the "stone" was removed, August still had signs of being infected by the obsession of the angry spirit. She patted Doudou on the head: "Scream over here some more."

The little guy was so happy. It was the first time since he was born that he felt so powerful. He shouted at the old man. This time, everyone around him paid more attention, and finally felt that there was a strange power accompanying Doudou when she spoke. The sound spread out - the cold and twisted aura lingering on August's body was like a strongly interfered electromagnetic wave, instantly disintegrating into a meaningless clutter and disappearing into thin air.

"Be sure to check what new functions Doudou has when you go back," Nangong Wuyue frowned and looked at Doudou who was babbling happily. Under the little guy's high-pitched and clear voice, there was a large space around him. The gloomy atmosphere left by the obsession of the angry spirit was receding rapidly. Nangong Wuyue even felt that his diffused mental power was being disturbed by some harmless but real disturbance, "...In addition, it is best to teach the little guy a few tricks in the future. A decent song, at least little apples can’t always be used in exorcism rituals..."

Only then did August finally react. He realized that the voice that had been entangled with him for three hundred years had been easily removed in this joke-like process. His whole body was in a huge shock, and he changed his mind again. Feeling refreshed, he stood up and rubbed his hands to express his gratitude to everyone. Vivian waved her hand to stop his overly excited reaction: "To be honest, I'm a little curious, since the 'stone' has caused you so much trouble, why don't you just throw it away? You are not like the Andre family who has been abused by evil Targeted by spirits, trapped in Siberia and unable to leave.”

"To be honest, I did think about this in the early years," August looked at the two "stones" in Hao Ren's hand with a complicated expression, "and I did throw them away a few times, but every time it was like a curse. Come back to me - if you leave it for more than seven days, this thing will come back. I've given up."

"It's also seven days?" Hao Ren and Vivian looked at each other in surprise, "The Andre family can't leave the castle for more than seven days. Is it the same reason?"

Compared with the Andre family who was directly trapped near the body of the angry spirit, August suffered significantly less damage. He was only troubled by nightmares, and the "stone" did not kill him, but The two curses obviously have many similarities: the victim cannot leave the cursed object too far or for too long, and the cursed object will try to infuse inexplicable information into the victim's memory. These characteristics are very curious.

The angry spirit is an irrational creature, so what does it mean by these "curses" it creates with obvious purpose and regularity?

"Two stones have been obtained." Vivian put these questions aside for the time being and turned to look at August. "Paul, can you go to Andre's Castle with us?"
