Journey to the witch world

Chapter 624 Hunger Curse

"Emerald City?" Enzo muttered to himself.

After Bourne joined the Campbell family, he became the ruler of the Emerald City and built a mechanical tower in the center of the city. Relying on the resources provided by the Campbell family, he moved towards the second-level wizard realm.

However, with Bourne's talent, the possibility of advancing to the second level is slim.

In particular, he has undergone a large number of mechanical modifications, and his body's ability to carry magic power is not even as good as some third-level apprentices. Without some special opportunities, he may not be able to advance to the second level in his life.

In place, Enzo thought.

Thirty thousand phantom crows have scattered throughout the restricted area of ​​the abyss. Each pair of eyes provides Enzo with a picture. Using the analysis function of the chip, the map of the entire restricted area of ​​the abyss soon appeared in Enzo's mind.

At the same time, he also got the location of Emerald City.

"I wish you were still alive."

Enzo sighed in his heart. The reason why he went to the restricted area of ​​​​the abyss was because of Bourne, but this place was already shrouded in the aura of the abyss. Bourne, who was only a first-level wizard, might not be 100% alive.

The next moment, Enzo disappeared.

Using the power of the rules of the wizarding world, space no longer has much binding force on him, and short-distance teleportation consumes only magic power. Enzo plans to go to the Emerald City to find Bourne first.

Only after this matter is resolved will he consider exploring the restricted area of ​​​​the abyss.

"No wonder the abyssal world has always been a disgusted existence in the multiverse. These abyssal energies have even distorted the rules and made this area extremely chaotic." After using several space jumps in succession, Enzo stopped in place.

The rules in the Abyss restricted area were chaotic, which made Enzo unable to adapt.

Under normal circumstances, Enzo could reach another town from one town to another with every space jump, and the magic power consumed was only the amount of a spell, but in the abyss restricted area, this was obviously not the case.

Just a few space jumps consumed a lot of Enzo's magic power.

At the same time, the distance span is not obvious, not even as fast as Enzo's flying spell, and it is obviously still a long way from the Emerald City.

"It's really troublesome." Enzo frowned slightly.

As his mind moved, a pair of shadow wings appeared behind him. After a slight vibration, they enveloped Enzo, as if he turned into a ghost, and disappeared from the place.

Shadow spells were almost a special skill for Enzo.

Although he has been promoted to a fourth-level wizard and uses the power of rules in most battles, shadow spells are still the foundation of Enzo's path. Just like the Flame Supreme, even if he is promoted to a seventh-level wizard, he is still good at controlling flames.

In the sky, a group of shadows moved quickly.

At this speed, Enzo can reach the Emerald City in three hours at most. However, as he goes deeper into the restricted area of ​​the abyss, the aura of the abyss in the air becomes stronger and the rules become more chaotic, making Enzo feel a little uncomfortable.

For ordinary wizards or mortal knights, the strong abyss aura can be almost fatal, but for a fourth-level wizard like Enzo, it does not have much impact, it just makes him feel uncomfortable.

The fourth-level all-spirits wizard is already a being comparable to a god.

This kind of creature has completely broken away from the boundaries of the mundane world, and some rules adapted to the mundane world have ceased to exist for them.

To use an analogy.

It is well known that the weakness of human beings lies in the heart and head. An ordinary person will definitely die if his heart is penetrated or his head is cut off. After being promoted to a wizard, the weakness of the heart will no longer exist.

Even a first-level wizard who is shot through the heart can use witchcraft to perform organ transplantation to recover himself, but beheading is still a fatal injury to the wizard.

But the fourth-level wizard has no such weakness.

Whether it is crushing their hearts, cutting off their heads, or even digging out all their organs, it will not cause fatal damage. The power of rules can completely shape the body, and it only consumes some original power.

For a fourth-level wizard, perhaps the only fatal weakness lies in the magic crystals within his body.

To be more precise, it is the heart of all spirits.

The source of a wizard's power is magic crystal. This kind of thing is a fatal weakness for every wizard. It gives the wizard magic power and strength. As the wizard himself advances to the fourth level, the nature of the magic crystal will also be changed.

The changed magic crystal is called the Heart of All Souls.

In the multiverse, the value of the Heart of All Souls is difficult to describe in words. Its preciousness even exceeds that of divine fire. Even if the Supreme Council strictly prohibits the trading and sale of the Heart of All Souls, similar things have never happened in the multiverse. stop.

Even in the abyss world, many demon lords pride themselves on collecting a Heart of All Souls.

After Enzo was promoted to the fourth-level wizard, the magic crystals in his body were also converted into the heart of all spirits, showing a dark color like ink.

"Huh? What is that?"

In the sky, Enzo was moving at full speed, flying towards the Emerald City, when he suddenly saw a small town appearing below the ground, shrouded in a strong abyss atmosphere, exuding a strange feeling.

"Ignore it for now."

Enzo shook his head, not intending to pay attention to the anomalies in the town, but at this moment, a vortex suddenly formed in the distant sky, as if it had the suction force of a black hole, pulling Enzo into it.

"This breath..."

In the sky, Enzo stopped and felt the breath coming from the whirlpool. He pondered for a moment and finally walked in.

In an instant, there was a feeling of dizziness.

Enzo appeared in a strange space, surrounded by a desolate land. The red sky was like a giant mouth that ate people, and the earth was cracked and bleeding with blood, like an abyss and purgatory.

"What is this? Dimensional space?"

Enzo raised his brows, and a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes. After the abyss restricted area appeared in the Xingtong Kingdom, the original rules were abnormal, so the space fell into an illusory state. The black vortex just now represented the entrance to the dimensional space.

Since you enter this space, you must abide by the rules here.

Of course, this is only for ordinary wizards. This level of dimensional space is obviously unable to trap a fourth-level wizard like Enzo. He is very confident in his heart that he can break through this space when he explodes his own power.

But Enzo didn't do that.

The emergence of dimensional space often represents a distortion of the rules. It is indeed possible to destroy Enzo with pure power, but the consequences of doing so will only make this dimensional space fall into an even more chaotic state.

In fact, the entire dimensional space collapsed directly.

That would directly cause the space to collapse and form a large number of void cracks, which would be an unimaginable disaster for ordinary wizards. Although Enzo was not afraid, he did not like mindless destruction.

"How about taking a look at the rules of this dimension first?"

Enzo pondered for a moment, and then made a decision to crack a dimensional space. In addition to violent means, he could also find loopholes in the rules. Enzo, who has a chip, may not be able to do it.

Then, he started heading towards.

The abyss-rich dimensional space is full of twisted rules, which breeds a large number of strange creatures. Enzo noticed that in the magma not far away, a bloated monster was sucking the fat from his body.

The disgusting scene is repulsive.

Enzo's face was indifferent. As the abyss world is the most evil and twisted world in the multiverse, all kinds of demons will naturally emerge in endlessly.

"Humanity?"

After walking for a while, Enzo suddenly saw an area similar to a camp not far away. A large number of ragged humans gathered here. Some of them were sallow and thin, while others were potbellied.

The existence of two extremes seems particularly strange.

"Mom, I'm so hungry..."

In the camp, a little girl nestled in her mother's arms, making an extremely weak voice. Her mother was also sallow and thin, with a sad expression on her face.

At this time, the location in the center of the camp.

A deep pit similar to an oil pan suddenly collapsed, and the boiling hot water kept bubbling, making a gurgling sound. There was a commotion in the camp. Some humans looked at the bubbling pit, with longing shining in their eyes.

As for the other part of the human race, they appear to be extremely frightened.

They seemed to be afraid of the appearance of the pit, but there was a glimmer of desire in their eyes, and they seemed to be trapped in extremely tangled emotions.

"Hunger is the best spur..."

The hoarse and weird sound came from the deep pit, which was like a death knell to the humans in the camp.

The next moment, an arm that seemed to be made up of countless blood vessels poked out from the deep pit.

The humans in the camp became nervous.

Finally, the arm stretched out in the direction of a man. The man's belly was as big as a drum, like a pregnant woman. When he saw the arm reaching towards him, he suddenly let out a frightened and shrill scream.

But his bloated body destined him to be unable to escape.

The arms wrapped around the pot-bellied man like a poisonous snake, and then dragged him into the deep pit. The faces of the humans in the surrounding camps showed expressions of relief, and the eyes of those pot-bellied humans revealed a lusty luster.

In place, Enzo frowned slightly.

He has noticed something unusual in the camp. The deep pit seems to be an abyss curse, originating from the Demon God of Gluttony, one of the Seven Deadly Sins. The humans in the camp have all fallen into the curse of hunger.

"No! Help me!!"

Amidst the shrill screams, the man was dragged into the pit, and the boiling liquid covered his whole body, like a hairless fat pig.

Soon, the man's screams suddenly stopped.

The alluring aroma spread quickly, and the humans in the camp seemed to be unable to suppress the desire in their hearts. They rushed towards the pit one after another, with only a few people still sticking to the bottom line.

"Mom, I'm so hungry..."

Looking in the direction of the pit, a longing expression appeared on the little girl's face, but her mother tightly covered her eyes, as if she didn't want the girl to continue looking.

"Go to sleep. You won't be hungry when you sleep."

The mother comforted the girl, but she was also hungry. She had not eaten anything for ten days. She was also very eager for the smell emanating from the pit and could hardly restrain her desire.

In the camp, there are very few people with sallow complexion and thin skin.

The vast majority of people are unable to suppress their hunger desires and choose to sink, but the consequences of doing so are like the men in the pit.

He ate too much and ended up being everyone's food.

There seems to be no way to break the hunger curse in the camp. People who cannot bear the hunger will eat their own kind in the pit, but the consequence of doing so is that they are destined to become food for others.

But how long can we continue to endure hunger?

Do you choose to wallow in desire? Or stick to the bottom line and strive for that one ten thousandth of hope?

The vast majority of people in the camp chose the former.

"I can not stand it any more!"

At this time, a man with a yellow face and thin muscles suddenly let out a wailing scream and rushed towards the pit. His thin body seemed to burst out with great strength, pushing the people around him away, and began to eat big mouthfuls of food. .

Feeling the taste of flesh and blood entering his belly, an extremely satisfied expression appeared on the man's face.

At the same time, his body also began to mutate, his hands turned into claw-like things, and his sunken abdomen bulged as if pregnant, looking extremely ferocious and terrifying, but the man ignored his changes and greedily gnawed on his flesh and blood.

"The curse of hunger?"

Enzo stroked his chin, and a trace of thought appeared on his face. This dimensional space seemed to be under an abyss curse, and it was almost as difficult for humans trapped in it to be freed as they could reach the sky.

"But...what about any way to break the curse?"

Enzo was lost in thought, and using power to break through the dimensional space was the simplest way, but Enzo was unwilling to do that. According to his inference, there should be a more clever way to leave this space.

"Eat? Or not?"

Enzo frowned slightly. The key to breaking the hunger curse should be whether to choose cannibalism. The purpose of the test is whether he can restrain his desire. People who are tempted by hunger and choose cannibalism will eventually become slaves to gluttony.

Perhaps, only by sticking to the bottom line can we leave this space.

"But... how long will it take?"

Enzo deduced the method to break the curse, but he didn't know how long he would last to break the curse. The limit that a mortal could endure hunger was about ten days at most, but a wizard could easily go without eating for hundreds of years.

"You're going to want me to be trapped here for hundreds of years, right?"

A sneer appeared on Enzo's face, and he understood the way to break the curse, but Enzo had other ideas. He couldn't waste too much time here, so if he wanted to break the curse, it seemed that he could only choose a simpler way.

In place, Enzo thought.

The next moment, the shadow under his feet seemed to turn into a troll. The body, which was more than 100 meters long, almost enveloped the entire camp. The humans inside screamed in surprise. Except for those who were completely swallowed by hunger and desire, everyone else fled in all directions.
