Chapter 51 Curse Killing Technique

"It's staring at you..."

In the dark and silent long hallway, Arecio's voice was particularly strong.

Colin didn't look back. He knew that he couldn't see anything when he looked back, so he didn't even change his tune, and he was still alert to the surroundings.

He thought that he would panic a little when he encountered such a situation, but he didn't.

Knowing that the thing was behind him made him calm down a little.

Sometimes the invisible is more frightening, because the sense of unease is infinitely amplified in waiting and wonder.

But now that its location can be determined, that thing no longer seems to be some nameless and elusive existence.

There is no need to make unnecessary doubts, but it reduces the psychological burden.

Even though it was following him closely, staring at the back of his defenseless neck for some reason.

It noticed the intrusion of outsiders, but it has not exerted any influence so far. Instead, it shows that the evasion strategy of Giovanni and Arecio is effective.

At this moment, there was an invisible but insurmountable frequency boundary between that thing and Colin.

In purely physical terms, they are very close.But in essence, the distance in this is extremely far.

You should never panic now, because panic is more likely to make the other party seize a certain flaw and be dragged into its frequency at once.

Although the reasons vary, both Colin and Giovanni are people with an intact heart shell, and the frequency of consciousness is not easily shaken.

This makes it difficult for them to embark on the path of ascension, but at the same time less vulnerable to these elves.

This is also the reason why Fang, with the help of the lampkeeper, can fight against wizards to a certain extent.

Although Giovanni was still moving forward, he had been paying attention to Colin's reaction at the same time.Seeing that he didn't show too much panic, he was a little secretly affirmed.

Even if he was told about the existence of frequency boundaries at the beginning, fear, as a survival instinct, is actually difficult to overcome with reason.

This is a rare quality.Most ordinary people will be suspicious and startled when they know there is no threat.When fear grows, it can bring real danger.

"It's also not known which responses worked, but the good news is that we did bypass its frequency."

Giovanni was still loose and laid-back, and at the same time no longer deliberately lowered his voice, which sounded like he was chatting on his lawn.

"The bad news is that people downstairs should notice us with it."

But also expected.

"Colin." Giovanni went on:
"I'm going to take medicine, help me stare at the corner in front of me."

Colin took a few steps forward, raised his gun and aimed ahead, giving Giovanni a little cover.

Giovanni took out the bullet-like vial, raised his head and put some kind of pheromone-rich liquid into his eyes, then took a deep breath.

"Unless necessary, it is best not to rely on this thing."

Giovanni stood there and closed his eyes, feeling the rush of blood boiling.The surface of his skin soon began to show a hot red:
"Even if the burned life can be replenished, the price is still there...and it's bigger than you think."

Colin guessed he was referring to the issue of life damage.

After taking the medicine, perhaps in order to end the battle as soon as possible, Giovanni changed his cautious style of exploring the area with his breath held before, and rushed towards the stairs with great strides.

Before Colin could respond, Arecio's words rang in his ears again.

"...The target has withdrawn from the curse killing technique."

By investigating some special materials on "Gun Eye" Rich's purchase list, we can roughly determine what kind of ceremony this wizard is preparing in the tavern.

Arecio saw roughly three types of rituals that could be accomplished with only those materials.One of them is the "Black Hen Curse Killing Technique".

This ritual has always been notorious and even spread among ordinary people.

The general process after omitting the details is to take a black hen that has not been in contact with the rooster, pluck the variegated hair, cover its head with a black towel, and let it incubate an unfertilized egg in a dark room. .

The egg has never been fertilized, but after a few months it will mature on its own, the eggshell is cracked from the inside out, and the inner wall is as black as ink, but there is nothing inside.What was born there was actually a devil's child, which is said to be one of their ways of multiplying.

And in return for being born, it takes a person's life for the person who presides over the ceremony.

The average person imitates this ritual, most of the time with no results other than a rotten egg.Rarely, passing demons or other evil spirits enter the ritual space by chance, and then cause the eggs to conceive their own children.

But most of the devils born by coincidence are weak and sick, and some even take revenge on the host.

If a sorcerer intentionally invited an evil spirit into the ritual, the results and effects would be very different.Presumably the wizard of Ziyuetian downstairs wanted to use this ritual spell to kill another leader of the Capello family.

This was originally a ritual performed purely through spirituality, based on the agreement between humans and spirits, and had nothing to do with any mirror image.But because it is used too frequently, its own form has also become a mirror image. Although it is unstable because too many people fail to execute it, it is very prominent among many spell mirrors in the prototype world.

The Black Hen Curse Killing Technique is one of several instant death techniques monitored by the "Fictional Temple".The reason, in addition to its own instant death, is because it is a spell string that helps the devil reproduce.

So if you are a wizard with a little common sense, you will never use this ritual.

Ordinary people do it playfully, with little consequence yet.But if there is a force from the depths of the world involved, mirror resonance happens.

The "fictional temple" erected by the cardinals of the First Order in the prototype world will analyze and obtain relevant information about the caster from the resonance of certain spell strings, and send relevant forces to obliterate those who violate taboos.

Therefore, if he is allowed to successfully complete this ritual in the tavern, I am afraid that the consequences will not only be the death of one leader, but the entire five hands will be implicated.

In addition, the reason why this ritual is abandoned by most wise wizards, in addition to the fact that it exposes itself to the order, is another danger that this ritual is derived from the teaching of the devil, and it is also flawed.

Although you don't need to keep your intentions focused at all times, you must never let your consciousness withdraw at will during the daily ritual.This is a common problem with classical spells.

So Arecio and Giovanni specially selected a few days for the ceremony to launch, but they did not complete the raid.

As a result, the wizard downstairs forcibly withdrew from the curse killing technique.

"This forbidden technique is too famous, and most people will use it as a theme to make up and make up, but it is difficult to determine which records are true and which records are false..." Arecio said:

"In addition to the fact that it was imprisoned, the people who actually performed it were basically dealt with by the order... So it is difficult to figure out what the consequences of forcibly withdrawing from the ceremony will be."

The caster died violently?Or was the devil who entered the ritual disturbed?As Colin thought so, a gunshot came from downstairs.

It appears that Giovanni has engaged in a firefight with the wizard.

Colin didn't have time to think about it too much, and continued to perform his tasks as agreed.He kicked open every door on the second floor one by one, looking for a small altar.

Giovanni said that the sorcerer who has been entrenched here for so long may have also made it his "position", that is, a place for storing the main body of the ceremony.

A wizard should hide his position as much as possible, just as an army hides an arsenal.

Colin wanted to find the wizard's position as soon as possible and destroy it.

At this moment, a shrill scream came from downstairs.
