"why?"
"Because no one knows curses better than me!"
Dain crossed his arms with a deep and confident expression.
Chapter 599 The insidious curse
2024-04-10
"Gah! Such a strong aura!" Paimon felt the confidence that was almost overflowing from Dine, and he covered his eyes and flew back some distance.
He was worthy of being a man who could make even the Abyss Cult feel troublesome. This strength was recognized by her Paimon!
It's a pity that Paimon's approval is the least valuable thing. As long as you give him something delicious, Paimon can immediately give out a lot of recognition in various aspects.
So Daine only thought that Paimon had eaten the wrong thing and needed treatment.
"You know so much about the curse? Then tell me why it can't be done?" Yu Yan immediately asked Daine for advice with a guilty conscience.
Finally, there is someone here who seems to be reliable, so I must ask him carefully.
"Put your pen and paper away, it's useless even if you know." Dyne saw Yi Yan pull out a small notebook and stretched out his hand to close it.
But Ember wasn't as desperate as Dyne, and he thought it was still a bit of a joke. So he turned around, avoiding Dine's outstretched arm, and at the same time pulled him to the side of Qiuqiu Man who was covered in bandages.
After stabilizing his figure, Dain lowered his head and saw the Qiuqiu man lying on the ground. Rarely, there was a hint of anger in him.
"The results of the purification are right in front of you, why do you still ask me?"
Dain turned his head to the side, and there was a hint of scolding in his words.
Although he kept reminding himself in his heart that this Qiuqiu man was no longer a citizen of Kanria, during the journey, Dain still tried his best to bypass the Qiuqiu camp and not disturb the Qiuqiu people inside.
Now that he saw the miserable situation of the Qiuqiu people in front of him, nameless anger arose in his heart.
"You don't think it's dead, do you?" Ember patted Daine on the shoulder and pointed at the Qiuqiu man lying on the ground.
"Huh? Not dead?" Dain immediately turned his head around. He quickly ran to Qiuqiu Ren's side and unfolded the tightly wrapped bandages on his body.
Then he saw the skin that was constantly being renovated on Qiuqiu's body.
"How is this possible?! The Qiuqiu people's curse brand is of a causal level. Purification means turning the body and the curse into ashes!"
"How can you not die in this situation?!"
Dain was muttering to himself, while Ember was writing furiously.
"I see. Why is this Qiuqiu man so small? It seems like one layer of his body has been directly burned away."
Ember rested the pen against his chin. Good, one problem solved. It turns out that purification will directly destroy the body.
"How did you save it?" Dain asked with a look of disbelief.
"There's only one word, quick! Don't you think this only burns the skin?" Ember extended a finger and replied.
"I can see clearly how this thing got wrapped around Qiuqiu people. As long as I pull it over as soon as the power of purification wraps around it, isn't it a success?"
"As long as I'm fast enough, disaster will always be one step behind me!" Yi Yan started to gesture with his fists and feet.
"I see...that's how it is." Dain nodded with a dry throat. He looked down at the embers and exhaled deeply.
After all, no one had ever said before that one could escape from the danger of curse purification as long as they were quick enough.
"But so what? Even if you can make the Qiuqiu people immortal, you still can't purify the curse on them."
"I advise you to let go. Doing so will only cause unnecessary pain to these dying Qiuqiu people.
"What's more, they may not be willing to get this so-called 'purification'."
Dain shook his head, looked around, and advised everyone in a serious tone.
"Hey, hey, hey! I don't know much about curses in the front, so I can't say anything, but you in the back are looking down on others, aren't you?"
Yu Jin waved his hand at Dain, and then continued: "We fully abide by the principle of voluntariness. I specifically asked the hillbilly just now, and he voluntarily accepted purification!"
"..."
Dai Yin did not expect that Yan Yan would actually ask Qiu Qiu for his opinion. He raised his head and was silent for a while, and then said with an embarrassed look on his face:
"I retract the third sentence, but the first two sentences still represent my views."
hateful! Isn’t it true that the language of the Qiuqiu people has not yet been completely deciphered? How did this guy Yan Yan communicate with the Qiuqiu people about such complicated things?
At this moment, Dyne had a deeper understanding of the irrationality of Ember.
"You are so hopeless about purification, can you tell me what is missing? Just now I did see that the curse on the Qiuqiu people has indeed dissipated a little."
The tip of the ember pen was pointed at the paper, ready to get more information from Daine.
When Dai Yin heard this, he glanced at Yu En without any surprise. Sure enough, he could also clearly see the curse on the Qiu Qiu people.
"Yes, but I don't know if you have noticed that those curses that were removed are now back."
Dain nodded, then pointed to the Qiuqiu man lying on the ground next to him.
Hearing Dyne's words, Yi Yan spread his palms flat on his brows and looked carefully into the distance, and then he let out an exclamation, "It seems to be a real roar."
"Now do you know how difficult this curse is?" Seeing Yu Yan's surprised look, Dain felt proud.
He struck while the iron was hot and continued: "This curse from the sky has been deeply connected to the cursed person from the moment it arrived."
"I can feel that this curse has penetrated deeply into my flesh and blood, integrated into my bone marrow, and has become a part of me."
As he spoke, Daine unconsciously touched his right cheek with his palm, where there was a dark blue "mask".
But Daine knew that this was not a mask, but his flesh and blood corroded by the curse.
The curse of heavenly principles may be powerful or insidious. It anchors the entire body of the cursed person. It doesn't matter if it's more or less.
"This curse has long been integrated with the cursed person. I once remembered that one of my compatriots tried to transfer the curse bit by bit, but the curse with a gap caused his entire body to completely collapse."
"In front of me, he turned into a puddle of indescribable things." The part of the memory that he least wanted to recall echoed in front of Dine's eyes, surrounding him who had always been paralyzed, and his face could not help but become distorted.
"Everyone will be prosperous if they gain one, and they will suffer if they lose each other?"
"It can be understood that before the purification is completed, you will die because you have lost most of your body. Even if you are lucky enough to survive, the curse will be restored along with your recovery."
"But I don't believe it. Is there really a curse in the world that cannot be broken?"
Ember touched his chin and looked at Dyne.
The dark peephole seemed to be able to see through him inside and out. Feeling Yan Yan's penetrating gaze, Daine took a few steps back unconsciously.
"Of course not. But if you want to break the curse that has fallen on the survivors of Kanria, you have to face difficulties and pay a price..."
Dyne didn't say any more, the meaning contained in it was self-evident.
But Yi Yan didn't pay any attention to the abnormality of Daine's last words. He only knew one thing - that is, Daine really knew some big secrets!
He patted Daine on the back and said excitedly: "I knew you had something in your belly, tell me quickly and let me see it!"
"Cough cough cough!" Dain was hit by the continuous slaps of the embers and coughed several times in a row. After getting a little away from the embers of excitement, he stroked his stuffy chest and said in a heavy tone:
"If you want to break the curse at the causal level, you must use higher power."
"Such as...fate."
Chapter 600 Occasionally tough
2024-04-11
"Destiny..."
Hearing this, Yi Yan squatted on the ground. He looked left and right, and seemed to feel his hands were idle, so he started scratching his head again.
Destiny is something invisible and intangible, but if it can be turned into tangible power, its power is extremely terrifying.
Apart from anything else, the Hunting Finger Knife is said to be able to hurt the Supreme Will because it contains the power of fate.
Of course, when it comes to fate, Ember has to be cautious.
The power twisted by fate is not like ordinary elemental power or abyss power. It is really painful when this thing hits the body.
"Destiny? Does such an illusory thing really exist?" Countless questions emerged in Paimon's little head.
"Of course it exists. It would be better to say that many things in this world have been determined by the so-called 'destiny'."
Dai Yin looked at Ying, as if he was pointing something out. But he soon changed the topic and continued:
"[Loom of Destiny], do you still remember this plan?"
Dyne turned his attention to Abyss and others again. Through hundreds of years of entanglement with the Abyss Religion and his own understanding of the curse, he could already roughly guess what the Abyss Religion wanted to do.
"I'm impressed! This is something the Abyss Religion specially made up to scare people for the sake of mystery!"
"Actually, the real name of this plan is [Kanria Restoration Plan]!"
Paimon couldn't wait to shout out. She put her hands on her hips and her nose almost turned to the sky.
"Who told you?" Dain almost stopped tensing up after hearing Paimon's confident answer.
"Of course it was my good friend Yuan You who I met in the Abyss Cult who told me!" Paimon pointed to Yuan You beside him.
When the latter caught Dine's gaze, he immediately explained quickly: "Don't... don't look at me like that. I... am just an abyss mage."
Yuan You suddenly panicked, not only because of Daiin's sight, but also because of the inexplicable aura exuding from his body.
This breath is called - Abyss Mage Killer! The instinct in Yuan You's heart is telling it that the human being in front of it (doubtful) is an abyss mage killing machine that has no feelings.
"I would like to remind you that if you are not an astrologer or an old woman of a certain level, you'd better not mention the word [destiny] casually."
After snorting at Yuan You, Dai Yin immediately turned around and patted his chest. I originally thought that his guess was wrong, but I didn't expect that it was just Yuan You's nonsense.
"I can understand the astrologer, but what about the old woman?" Paimon asked in confusion.
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask. You just need to remember what I just said." Dyne said he didn't want to talk to Paimon and pushed her far away.
The old women in the Witch Club are strong, but not top-notch strong, and weak, that's even more impossible.
Judging from the bits and pieces of information Dine had collected, he only knew that the witches had "weird" abilities.
If not necessary, Dain would never want to have any conflict with these troublesome-looking old women.
"We understand, why don't you explain what the [Loom of Destiny] is?" Ying winked at Daine.
