Mildred Hemprey washed the coffee cup like an ordinary old man and echoed: "Being the one in control will deepen the curse. Just like now I prefer to use cobwebs for hunting, and I have an appetite for bugs, like you
I feel the same hatred toward people who hurt plants as I hate people who hurt spiders.”
After pouring the coffee beans and the ground powder of the unknown fruit, Mildred Hemprey returned to the fireplace sofa and waited for the kettle to boil. The boiling hot water was poured into the coffee cup, and a mist of mixed coffee beans and strong herbal aroma rose.
Mildred Hempree huddled on the sofa with a cup of coffee. For an old man who had experienced the abyss of despair and was on the verge of death, there was nothing more beautiful than having a cup of coffee with friends by a warm fireplace calmly.
"The curse I deepened is the sense of existence..." Silver Cross Sloane, who is still far from old, also enjoyed this beauty and slowly said: "The controller of [Hunter] gave me the power to be the best at this moment, but the curse makes me
I can be easily noticed at any time, and even a blind person can feel my silent arrival."
The two masters who have mastered the power of release for more than ten years told Lu Li the unknown details and taboos in more detail than books.
"Be cautious in increasing your cursed titles, and be especially careful in releasing your power... We know that every time you release a cursed title, the temptation will deepen as the power deepens... Volley Cobbs, who had the most cursed titles before you, is releasing
After the second title, you will fall and destroy everything in sight, monsters, humans, lairs, towns of gods... Although you have the power to plunder humanity, the river will eventually dry up."
Both Silver Cross Sloane and Mildred Hempree experienced that long period of despair. Like matches in a snowstorm, they ignited a weak and short-lived glimmer of hope, which disappeared in the cold night in the blink of an eye.
When the scale tilts, it will only fall faster and faster
Lu Li remembered the reminder.
crunch
The half-opened door disturbed the conversation, and the businessman Anthony returned with something strange.
"We can get started."
Silver Cross Sloan put down the half-cup of coffee, took his old friend Silver Crossbow, and came to the fence together.
Merchant Anthony sent these weak monsters wrapped and bound by the alchemical blanket into the pen. They twisted and struggled due to Lu Li's approach, and his human aura was sensed by him.
Silver Cross Sloan raised his silver crossbow, and three arrows streaked into the space like a stream of light, grazing the rope outside the alchemy blanket.
snap
The rope broke and the alchemy blanket was spread out, revealing the outlines of three groups: a weak monster, a plant monster, and a hairless chicken.
Lu Li now released the cursed title of [Tree Whisperer].
The illusory saplings shimmering with light appeared behind them, and the forest-like vitality filled the surroundings.
The pen changed accordingly: the weak and weird creature, hungry for life, rushed toward Lu Li. Sensing the threat around him and the life ahead, he flapped his wings to catch the rushing hairless broiler.
When approaching the edge of the fence, the strange roots of the plants chase towards the weak and strange like vines, twisting tightly, and the roots penetrate into the body to absorb nutrients.
The hairless broiler chickens were blocked by the pen and clucked anxiously.
The weak and strange plants withered and dried up, abandoned by their roots, and the strange plants slowly and steadily approached Lu Li like an octopus.
Because of the cursed title of [Tree Whisperer], it defended Lu Li. Because of its strange identity, it attacked the hairless broiler again, and coveted Silver Cross Sloane and Mildred Hemprey.
A white light flashed, and the spider webs bound the plants together in strange ways, saving the poor hairless broiler chickens huddled under the pen. Mildred Hempley looked at Lu Li.
The soil under Lu Li's feet loosened, bulged, and sprouts sprouted, growing slowly visible to the naked eye.
The constant slow loss of humanity.
"Wait a minute." The thinking Silver Cross Sloan stopped Lu Li who was about to withdraw his power and cut a wound on the back of his hand with the silver crossbow.
A trace of blood appeared, and before the blood began to pour out, it began to gradually recover, close up, and heal after a few seconds.
Silver Cross Sloane did not hesitate to cut three gradually deepening wounds on the back of his hand to observe their recovery speed.
"Auxiliary type..." Mildred Hempry whispered. "As a newborn species, its power is not weak."
Unfortunately, it's not a war type or a guardian type. That means Lu Li can walk outside human civilization to a certain extent. For example, in old sewers or on the surface.
The cursed title is not constant after it is released. As time goes by, the shadow behind it will gradually grow until it becomes a mature species.
"The Mature Seed is the culmination of the weakened cursed title and the end of our road...but not for you." Silver Cross Sloan said.
The true release of the cursed title without nerfs is called a complete species.
For Lu Li, the biggest obstacle ahead is not human nature, but the need to walk on the edge between death and life to obtain a safe species.
Within ten seconds, the first wound had fully recovered, the second wound had scabbed over, and the third deepest wound was healing.
Silver Cross Sloane signaled Lu Li to take back his strength, but it wasn't until the wound scabbed that the shadow of the tree behind Lu Li faded.
For dozens of seconds, the power continued to turn the soil around Lu Li into a lawn, full of vitality like midsummer, and incompatible with the dim and decaying swamp.
Lu Li summoned the businessman Anthony, contacted mentor Chris and brought a mirror.
Soon, Lu Li and the two controllers returned to the wooden house with the mirror. Facing the mirror, Lu Li once again released the cursed title.
This time, he really observed the outline of the sapling behind him: still recovering from the cold winter, the branches of the saplings were shimmering with light and sprouting a few seedlings, and the crown of the tree was a little higher than Lu Li.
At chest height on the tree trunk, Lu Li saw a mark
When he regained his strength, the first bud grew into the outline of a leaf.
The traces carved on Annie's body by Anna when she was young prompted Lu Li to contact the Land of Hope to inquire about Annie's current situation.
[Don’t worry, she’s still thriving]
The twisted figure replied.
The phantom of the cursed title that emerges behind it is simply the result of spiritual manifestation.
Now that his goal of joining Jushu Academy has been accomplished, Lu Li will leave the academy soon.
Silver Cross Sloan made a suggestion: "If you want to travel, Midnight City is a good place to go. It is the core of human civilization. Our power shines there, and you can also participate in the March Contest in time."
"I don't plan to participate." Lu Li declined his invitation again.
Silver Cross Sloan shook his head slightly: "One of the rewards of the competition is the cursed title. Undoubtedly, that is the war-type cursed title you need."
In the end, Lu Li did not break away from his relationship with Jushu Academy.
Not only because of the Top Ten Championships a month later, but also because of Silver Cross Sloan's farewell.
"Remember to come to the swamp to see us. There is a steady stream of prey coming here, as well as other controllers who need help."
