Chapter 748 Temporary Curse
[Ghosts are cursed spirits. If you want to fight them, there is no other way except to curse yourself.]
[Since this item can safely curse people, even the blasphemous act of chopping off the dead's arms is understandable.]
Anleisi looked at this thing called [Temporary Curse], which looked like a severed green dead person's hand. She didn't know what to say for a moment, as if she had lost the ability to speak.
Why didn't she look at what she picked up just now?
If I had known earlier, I would have checked my backpack! The solution to this dilemma is in my own hands!
And what kind of ghost are you in the Sen Dungeon? What kind of curse have you suffered?
What kind of curse could turn a ghost into something so outrageous?!
Regret, unwillingness, self-condemnation. All kinds of emotions flooded into the girl's mind. She blamed herself for causing everyone's death because of her mistake.
Dying once is not a big problem. The problem is the mental damage caused by death and the destruction of weapons and equipment. The combined decline in combat effectiveness is the most serious!
It is precisely because of these reasons that even though the Sen Dungeon has things like bonfires and blessings that can revive adventurers, few adventurers continue to fight after being revived multiple times. Ordinary adventurers will voluntarily leave temporarily after being revived more than three or four times. Only a strategy group like Leon will fight to the death.
The Holy Light Knights came out in a hurry this time. They did not prepare any repair light powder, replacement equipment, or potions to soothe their mental trauma. This is absolutely not suitable for exploring dungeons, especially the Sean dungeon!
So the death just now caused them a considerable loss.
What's more, after we get out, we might have to fight with the Spark Church again!
Just when the huge sense of self-blame was about to turn into a monster and swallow her whole, Anna's scream came from the side.
“Hey!”
Anna pulled out a temporary curse from her backpack, fell to her knees, and yelled, "I'm sorry, everyone! I'm guilty! I wish I had discovered this sooner!"
Then two more people took out Temporary Curse from their bags. It seemed that there were quite a lot of these things scattered around in the Thane dungeon.
But the good thing is that no one took this thing out to take a look.
An Leixi suddenly felt less guilty and her mood became much more cheerful.
"Should we continue exploring?" Anna asked in regret. After getting the temporary curse, she wanted to avenge her previous shame.
"Let me think about it."
Anleixi looked at the temporary curse and a thoughtful look appeared on her face.
It is one thing to go back and kill the ghosts with a temporary curse to avenge the previous shame.
"Curse or something, it sounds a bit weird."
The ghost was turned into that appearance by a so-called curse. If you want to fight it, you have to be infected with the curse yourself. So what exactly is the manifestation of this curse?
Would using a temporary curse have any negative effects on my body? I didn't want to kill all the ghosts and then find myself in danger because of the curse.
The Church of Holy Light warned them to be absolutely cautious about everything in the Senn Dungeon. This statement might be biased, but it would be absolutely fine if they were careful.
"I can't figure out what the curse on this arm is, nor do I know if it will harm the human body." The Holy Light Knight, who was highly sensitive in the team, shook his head and looked at Anleisi and said, "Whether to use this thing or not is entirely up to you."
The question was pushed back again. An Leixi thought about it carefully and finally made a decision.
"Let's go back to the Firelink Shrine first. There's a cemetery over there. It seems the weapons in the cemetery can be used. Our current equipment is more or less damaged, so let's go back and replace some."
She will use her profound ability to manipulate magic to analyze the temporary curse and make sure it is harmless to humans before deciding whether to use it.
However, since this thing has the name of "Curse", it is hard to be a pure thing.
If it were placed outside, the believers of the Holy Light Church would probably cry out blasphemy and heresy when they saw this thing. Bringing it into the Holy Light Dungeon might even cause the dungeon to enter a stress state with increased aggressiveness.
Everyone from the Church of Holy Light turned around and walked back. There was no danger on the way back. As long as my friends were brave, they could get rid of the few ghosts and resist the mental pollution of the zombies with their strong willpower, and they could return to the Firelink Shrine safely.
On the way back, Anna kept thinking about one thing.
Undead creatures like ghosts are immune to physical attacks. This is a story that children in every household have heard of. After all, the most classic move of ghosts is to walk through walls and scare people.
In order to deal with undead creatures like ghosts, weapon workshops all over the world, no matter how valuable the weapons they forge, will add some magic-related things when forging the weapons, either magic ores, enchantments, or even more simply carving patterns that can be injected with magic power, thereby achieving attacks on undead creatures.
The ghosts in the Sen Dungeon cannot be attacked without using a temporary curse, which seems to be some kind of rule.
Based on his many years of experience in monster analysis, it is impossible for low-level monsters to have regular-type abilities. That would be too much of a bug.
There must be a way that allows them to attack ghosts without relying on temporary curses, but it has not been figured out yet. Perhaps when Anleisi or others analyze what the so-called curse is, that method can be explored.
She chose to trust in human wisdom.
Unfortunately, until they all ran back to the Firelink Shrine, Anleisi still hadn't figured out the temporary curse. The so-called curse on it was beyond her comprehension.
But it didn't matter, because the moment they stepped into the Firelink Shrine, everyone's attention was no longer on the temporary curse or the ruins of Anor Londo, but was all attracted by a door frame standing next to the bonfire.
The night scene of Haipa Town was reflected in the door frame without a door. The bright moonlight and the night scene of the Firelink Shrine overlapped, creating a magical feeling.
"How did this portal come out!?"
The Holy Light Knights were all extremely shocked. If they had not realized that this was a real portal, they would have thought that they were immersed in an illusion and had not woken up.
This is the portal that can lead out!
"So, the Thane Dungeon has hidden the portal to the outside world. What's the trigger? Lighting a bonfire somewhere else?"
No matter what Anleixi is guessing now, what to do next is already very obvious.
"Everyone get out! No, I'll go out first, you guys stay here!"
She cast several defensive spells on herself and put on a layer of magic shield before jumping out of the portal in one go.
After a while, the pendant hanging around Caius' neck trembled a few times. He nodded and said, "It's safe outside. Go out."
An Leixi ran out first to make sure whether it was safe outside, and then notified everyone to make a decision. I have to say that she was really brave enough to use this method.
The pendant is the little prop she uses to communicate with Caius. In fact, it is very simple to use. If it vibrates once, there is a problem, and if it vibrates twice, there is no problem. This thing cannot transmit specific information, but fortunately, the communication distance is extremely long, so the other party can receive the information even if they are in the dungeon.
"Get out! I'm never coming back!"
"Go home, go home! I promised to go home today to record a blessing video for my child who is having a birthday and send it back."
"The Thane Underground City is indeed as bad as the church said. If I were chosen to develop this place, I would rather go out and fight with the Spark Church."
"Me too, me too."
As soon as they saw the way out right in front of them, the Holy Light Knights relaxed one by one. They were finally able to leave this place where there was no sense of security and it made them nervous all the time except for the Firelink Shrine. Everyone was happy about it.
The others walked in front, and Caius stayed behind. When everyone else had left, he turned around and glanced around the Firelink Shrine.
Feeling that there was nothing worth caring about or needing to take back, Dejected Brother still sat on the steps with his head down, emoting, and the bonfire was still burning quietly.
Well, you can go out now.
Just as he turned around and stepped into the portal, the pendant around his neck suddenly trembled.
Trembled a little.
“!”
There was no point in being on guard at this time, because when the pendant vibrated, half of his body passed through the portal, and he was directly teleported to the outside world the next second.
What's going on? There's news of danger again! ?
He drew his weapon while being teleported. As soon as he arrived in the outside world, before he even opened his eyes, he smelled the scent of war and a familiar voice immediately rang in his ears.
"Throw the net and catch them alive!"
It's that bastard Hervey who's yelling!
Caius' forehead was bulging with veins. He looked up and opened his eyes, only to see a huge net falling from the sky, rushing straight towards him as if it had life.
He flicked his hand and launched the Three Swords Flow again. Sword Qi in multiples of three burst out from all directions, cutting the rather hard net into pieces in an instant.
Fragments of the big net fell down one after another, and at this time he finally saw the situation at the scene in Haipa Town.
"Ping pong pong—" The sounds of battle were endless, and sparks from the collision of weapons flashed everywhere in the dark night.
The scene can only be described as a war.
The Holy Light Knights team that came out first is fighting against enemies that are several times their number!
The true identities of those enemies are undoubtedly the joint army composed of various churches, which are the rebels in the eyes of the Holy Light Church!
The town of Haipa alone was already crowded with soldiers from various church forces. On average, each Holy Light Knight had to deal with four or five soldiers and one knight at the same time.
Outside Haipa Town, there was a long winding snake of fire rushing towards here, which symbolized that more rebels were coming to support.
With such a desperate disparity in numbers, this team of Holy Light Knights was doomed to be defeated, even though each of them was the elite among the elite.
The knights of other small churches may be slightly inferior to them in quality, but when their numbers are large enough, they can make up for the gap, not to mention that these enemies are mixed with
"Fire the thunder gun!"
No one knew where Hervey's voice came from. No one could see him, but the next moment his voice rang out, crackling sounds reached everyone's ears. A lightning spear filled with the power of sunlight streaked across the night sky and headed straight for the entangled Holy Light Knight.
Compared to the various soldiers around them, these lightning spears pose the greatest threat to the Holy Light Knights!
In the absence of various conditions, the quality of the Spark Knights can be said to be almost the same as that of the Holy Light Knights!
They are the most severe enemies of the Holy Light Knights, who are lurking somewhere unknown!
“Boom boom boom!”
Some of the lightning spears fell on the Holy Light Knights and some fell on the ground, all of which made violent explosions. Many people at the scene screamed, and it was impossible to tell who was the enemy or the friend.
The scene was quite chaotic, with lights of various colors exploding under the night sky.
"Hervey!"
Looking at this scene, Caius roared in anger.
This guy Hervey is their old enemy.
The two sides met on the battlefield many times, and a tough battle would break out every time, and each time there was no winner. Hervey ran over openly and used his strangler dragon teeth, which had unknown power, to sicken Anleisi and Caius and then ran away, interrupting the entire war and dragging the battle in the area into the quagmire of a protracted war.
For the Holy Light Church, a tie with the Spark Church is equivalent to their own loss!
Every day they fail to capture this area counts as a failure!
Fortunately, those small churches have recently fallen into problems such as insufficient supplies and lack of troops due to the protracted war. The Holy Light Church has gradually taken the initiative and even injured Hervey and successfully seized their flag the night before. Coupled with the upcoming arrival of the Dark Moon Church of Magic Sky, everything is moving in the right direction.
However, when talking about big things, we need to use a macro narrative, but when talking about ourselves, we need to use a micro narrative.
From a macro perspective, the Church of Holy Light is about to win.
But judging from the current situation in Hepa Town, Caius and the others might be captured alive by so many people.
Captured by these barbaric guys, the Holy Light Knights dared not imagine how they would be treated!
It's probably more disgusting than being immersed in the Fran Fortress for seven days and seven nights! They absolutely believe that the Spark Church has the ability to do such a thing.
Caius looked around but could not find the hiding Hervey. He only saw the figure of Anleisi, who was sweeping the battlefield with an invincible posture to help the friendly forces, but the enemy was endless and there was almost no hope of victory.
Caius was just thinking about whether he should manually let Anleisi sleep, and then lead everyone out of the siege, when the other party suddenly spoke.
"Hervey, you bastard, don't get so cocky. The Magic Sky Curtain will be here to kill you soon!"
"You mean the Dark Moon Church?"
Hervey said with a playful laugh:
"You can't wait for them."
"What?" A question mark appeared above Anleixi's head.
"Because another group of Dark Moons have already intercepted them!"
