Chapter 287 Black Rock Curse Vault
"Player Super Justice ()"
Annan finally understood where Jacob's title of "The Hole Opener" came from——
Generally speaking, ceremonial masters determine their status and strength based on the degree of mastery of mysterious knowledge.
Because if it involves mysterious knowledge above the "history" level, almost any ritual can have a strong effect.
For example, revealing the hidden secrets of others out of thin air, making the sky as dark as the night sky, triggering a war in a disputed area... and Annan's heterogeneous ability "Winter's Breath" obtained through rituals, is also " History" level of mysterious knowledge.
About the secret of the "other world", even just telling it is enough to destroy the sanity of a mortal. It can be used to construct nightmares, and it can also invade other people's nightmares.
And the secret of creation is extremely heavy. Just by saying it, its power is enough to obliterate the fallen who turned into a demon. If it is fully used in the ceremony, it may be able to confront the powerhouse of the truth level head-on.
The mysterious knowledge that Jacob controlled was not even at the "historical" level. Just general knowledge about "truth" and "custom"... probably at the level of Papa Vasily.
But by virtue of these light secrets, combining and nesting them with each other, a secret that is at least equivalent to the "historical" level is constructed...
... Is Ning a casual player?
Annan could be sure that he had never seen the ritual used by Jacob anywhere else.
If this ritual is popularized, many barriers will become completely meaningless. To put it a bit alarmist... Even closing the door at home can't protect the safety, and the doors and windows can't give people a sense of security. Whether it's a thief, a robber or a killer, committing a crime becomes much simpler.
Because this ritual is the ritual of creating a "door" on the "wall" and opening it. However, the "mysterious knowledge" required for this ritual is not very important, which means that a slightly skilled ritual master can use this ritual...
"Your ceremony, remember not to spread it outside."
Annan said seriously, "Do you understand?"
"I certainly wouldn't do that."
Jacob was stunned for a moment, and then he said with certainty: "If I would do this, then I would have gone to the United Kingdom or underground to find a place to raise a group of thieves or killers. With my ability , Most of the defense methods can't stop me.
"Group teleportation, object teleportation, wall penetration, disarming and piercing barriers... But I will not do this, Your Majesty. Because I know what effect my knowledge will have if it spreads."
He said with a smile, pointing to his temple: "This is 'poisonous knowledge'.
"Poison is a key that can open all locks. Poisonous knowledge will penetrate the human body like poison, and penetrate every joint of the country and society; it will kill many innocent people like poison kills flesh and blood.
"Although I am definitely not a good thing... I am a thief, I am a spy, and I am also a liar. But at least I am not a demon who likes to watch the world burn. I am more or less a human being."
"Then, first of all, I wish you a good person."
Annan smiled, and stretched out his hand generously: "Maybe he will become a great man in the future."
Hearing Annan's words, Jacob was also taken aback.
The smile on his face gradually disappeared, and he solemnly stretched out his hands to hold Annan's hand, and said seriously: "Then... I will borrow your good words."
He was very careful not to let his wound touch Annan's hand. It shouldn't be because he was worried about hurting himself, but because he didn't want the blood to stain Annan's hands.
Annan's white and slender right hand, against Jacob's rough and scarred hand, seemed to be shining under the sunlight.
Rather... At this moment, Annan's whole body seemed to be glowing.
After leaving the barrier, the glowing powder that filled the surroundings was also left inside the barrier.
It was half a ball of light like an upside-down bowl.
After they left the barrier through the "door" Jacob opened, the barrier still remained in place.
That's fine—the barrier cuts off sound and light, and they won't know that Count Yuri is dead. This way at least it won't startle the snake.
As for the final count ball, Annan asked Zorgen to cut a part of it and pack it away. The remaining meat, including the "other" Count Yuri... was incinerated by the friendship of the four dark moments.
They will not allow the remnants of Earl Yuri to continue to exist in this world.
After all, it is not impossible to resurrect a corpse with mantra energy. But in the absence of a corpse, with their level of knowledge and IQ, it is impossible to resurrect a person.
The so-called... cut the weeds and eradicate the roots.
Through Zoya's prophetic spell and the information provided by Jacob, they quickly found the location of the curse cellar.
It is not very far from the location of this enchantment, less than five kilometers. They arrived there after walking for a while... Strangely, they did not encounter other armed forces on the way.
This shows that Earl Yuri has no preparations for the rest of the backs except himself. And around the curse cellar, there were no guards.
"Because it doesn't make sense."
Jacob said so.
Soon, Annan and the others knew the meaning of this sentence——
When they approached the curse cellar, they felt a strong sense of discomfort.
The heart beats constantly, like an arrhythmia. His brain swelled up and his breathing became short of breath.
"...There won't be any radiation here, right?"
The homeless child said worriedly: "You won't be infected by my curse too?"
"That shouldn't be the case. Otherwise, the count should have started using the spell energy long ago. He wouldn't have turned on the device after seeing us..."
After approaching the curse cellar, they heard a distinct humming sound.
That [Curse Vault] cannot be seen from the outside at all.
Its entrance is a vertical passage like an elevator shaft dug downward from the peak of a mountain. There was a triple barrier at the door, but it was easily "pierced" by Jacob.
From the inside, there is a roughly rhombus-shaped spiral staircase that goes down continuously. And the further you go down, the higher the temperature will feel... And gradually a strange pumping sound can be heard in the ear, and the heart is also beating rhythmically with that sound.
The surrounding black walls don't seem to be bricks... but blood vessels.
"Woo..."
Russell, who was curled up in Annan's arms, whimpered uncomfortably, his body was stiff, and he did not dare to move.
When she was bombarded by Earl Yuri before, she had no fear at all, and she didn't even scream... But now that she was approaching the curse cellar, she started to tremble instead. It seemed to be screaming, begging Annan not to continue diving.
Russell's entire dog's body froze into a strand—frightened. She was trembling non-stop, like a mobile phone stuffed in her bosom and set to vibrate, the buzzing vibration made Annan's chest hurt.
After Annan and his team dived deeper than a critical value.
The world in front of him suddenly became distorted.
It's like the frame rate is too high and the screen is tearing——
Fragments of history appeared before his eyes. It seems that someone is doing something with a lamp in a dim room, and it seems to be pointing at something on the map, and it seems to be carving something...
But those images have no sound, and they are fleeting, barely a frame or two. Annan didn't see clearly at all, only a vague impression remained.
"Further down..."
Jacob's voice became distorted: "We are about to enter the curse cellar!
"Attention—grab the hands of those around you—"
His voice was tinged with a strange mechanical sound.
And the "fragmented images" in front of him also began to increase significantly, and Annan heard whispers in his ears. But he still couldn't quite hear what he was talking about...
I can only check the recording and broadcast later, Annan thought.
The next moment, Annan suddenly felt a strong dizziness——
His system, which has almost no sense of presence, rarely shows a line of bright red prompts:
