Chapter 226: Chapter 226 Bell
Translator: 549690339
Main lobby of the house.
During the thirty-minute negotiation.
The farm owner played with the ‘nails and wires’ throughout, inserting the nails soaked in cursed water into his body from different angles, so as to strengthen his own curse.
“…That’s about it. When the time comes, I will send a crowman to the farm to notify you.
Then, you just need to follow our team into the Hill Castle.”
Ding!
Ding!
The farm owner continued inserting the nails.
Everyone was waiting for his response.
Even the family members didn’t dare to speak at this point for fear of annoying the farm owner.
After waiting for about ten minutes.
The farm owner had inserted a bucket full of cursed nails into his body… The atmosphere gradually grew tense.
At this moment, all the members of the novice team were making some movements, ready to switch to combat mode at any time.
Next second.
The farm owner lifted his huge axe with one hand, pointing in a certain direction in his home.
This action startled the mother, Berlin, “Dear…Are you sure you want to do this? Tell me what you are thinking, and I’ll translate it to these youngsters.”
Three-meter-tall Berlin crawled to her husband, her cheek approaching the linen hood in front of him.
A weird tongue came out from the linen, entering Berlin’s ear, communicating in this way.
After listening.
Berlin arched her back and crawled in front of Han Dong.
“My husband stated that if you can complete the curse trial in the basement, our family would be willing to accept the request you just made.”
Having said that.
Berlin crept close to Han Dong’s ear, whispering:
“Our little daughter Rosi seems to quite fancy you! Besides, you were able to stop my husband’s rage, which meets one of my critical criteria for a son-in-law.
The basement is very dangerous! I advise you not to go down.
If you are willing to be my son-in-law, I can talk to my husband and have him handle this matter in a different way.”
“No need… Please convey to Farm Owner Murphy that if my condition is met, please honor your promise.”
“Ah… A pity for a promising young man.”
Berlin, the mother no longer discouraged him, quickly crawling towards the location indicated by the axe.
After turning the decoration on the wall, a hidden passage exposed by a stone door opened.
As soon as the hidden passage was displayed, a curse in the form of text immediately spread along the wall.
This passage probably leads to the source of the curse.
The reason why the farm owner and his family could resurrect in different forms of ‘curses’…the answer should lies down there.
Han Dong did not hesitate, was just about to step forward.
Slap.
Somebody caught Han Dong’s wrist.
It was not the little daughter Rosi…but Mia, who was wearing a half mask.
“Let me go with you.”
Han Dong didn’t reply, instead, he looked at the farm owner.
After all, the farm owner meant for Han Dong to go down by himself.
As the farm owner gave a slight nod, Mia immediately smiled, closely following him. This scene irritated young daughter Rosi, several strands of her back wire even broke.
However, because of the farm owner, she dare not make constant moves.
With both of them entering the secret passage, the stone door immediately closed.
To get out, one must complete the curse trial below.
When they switched to their private world.
Mia rushed forward, tightly holding Han Dong’s arm, excited but also a bit worried.
“I am impressed… you actually found a way to negotiate with a dead spirit whose consciousness has been affected by curses and resentment.”
“As long as the consciousness is not completely lost, there is room for communication… It happens that we have two actors in our team, and Dumps did even better than I expected.
By the way, what do you make of the situation below?”
The moment when the stone door closed.
Han Dong had fully opened the Little Demon Eye, ensuring that the curse inscriptions attached to the walls would not affect him.
Mia also stretches out her spider legs and opens her own Curse Domain to resist the unique curses here.
“Below here should be what we discussed before… possibly a higher being who cursed the farmer.”
“The origin of the curse may not differ from my own Spider Curse.”
“If there really is a demon of the curse system imprisoned below, how will we deal with it?”
Han Dong replied indifferently: “I thought you could determine what is hidden below through these curse texts… Since you can’t predict, let’s go down and see.”
Mia pouted immediately when she heard this.
“The higher-level curses are all presented in ‘characters’, okay? Even with some Cursed Objects, you can find the text structure inside them… Hmph! Do you think everything is as simple as you imagine?”
Han Dong said nothing more.
There was a downward staircase at the end of the secret passage.
The basement they arrived at from the staircase was stylistically more like a sacrificial room.
All sorts of strange sacrificial patterns were drawn on the walls.
The strong cursed aura was so dense that it condensed into some words in the air, sweat was already dripping from Han Dong’s forehead… Once his Seed Energy was exhausted, he would be unable to resist the curse and would be totally ravaged.
It was different from what he had imagined.
There were no cursed entities or high-ranking beings as they had anticipated.
The source of the curse turned out to be a Dark Gray Metal Bell placed on the sacrificial altar.
“Is this the source of the curse, the root of the curse that was given to the Victoriano family? The so-called test of the farmer should be asking me to control this bell, right?
After all, if I want to confront the Great Lord, my own strength is not enough, all plans are useless.
It seems that the previous farmer, Murphy, when managing this wheat field area, had dug up this cursed object from some deep pit, thus gaining a certain understanding of curses.”
“Hmm… Yes.” Mia’s eyes were fixed on the bell, her greed barely concealed.
“Mia… you don’t need to pretend in front of me.
You are the type of person who puts your own interests first. You won’t voluntarily ask to enter dangerous areas. Isn’t your goal this thing? Go get it.”
Having her intention pointed out so directly by Han Dong.
Mia no longer pretended… and directly removed her mask.
Centred around Mia, another type of curse power gushed out.
From the ground within a two-meter radius, a large number of small spiders emerged, completely blocking off the curse.
Mia looked at the bell with slightly morbid eyes:
“I never thought I’d encounter a ‘Cursed Object’ in such a place, and it seems to be of good quality…”
Just as Mia was about to reach out to it, she was gently stopped by Han Dong.
“Let’s make it clear first, this thing is yours! But in the upcoming training operation, you must follow my commands.”
“Fine… I’m already very obedient.”
Mia made a huge change after removing her mask for a while.
Her fingernails were completely dyed purple and were about twenty centimeters long.
Snap!
She grabbed the bell.
Ring… ring… ring…
Then, without any action from Mia.
The bell rang on its own.
