Versatile Mage: Thunderstorm

Chapter 34 Cursed Pact
"contract?"

As soon as Zhan Kong's so-called contract appeared, the atmosphere in the entire reception room suddenly changed. Shi Liang frowned and felt the ominous aura coming from the contract. This thing didn't look like a good thing.

Shi Liang didn't understand, but the old butler next to him showed his extraordinary experience and profound knowledge, which amazed him.

"Cursed Pact? I didn't expect that Zhan Kong Tong actually possessed such a treasure."

"Cursed Pact?" X2
Li Yu and Shi Liang, two newbies, both made puzzled sounds.

Shi Liang was originally an ordinary person, and his research field had nothing to do with the cursed contract, so naturally he had no idea what this thing was.

The same goes for Li Yu. His strength is indeed beyond that of many older generation mages, but he is just a high school student. He does not have the ability of a high school student from a small island country to save the world, and he does not recognize this extremely rare thing that Zhan Kong suddenly took out.

The old butler answered their questions promptly.

“This cursed contract is a very special contract. Once the contract is signed, the signatory will be parasitized by the curse power of the contract.

Once the contractor violates the terms of the curse contract, he will be punished by the curse power in the contract and die miserably after suffering unspeakable pain within three days.

The most terrifying thing is that this curse is rooted deep in the soul and cannot be broken by external forces. Not only are powerful magicians in the curse and mind fields powerless, but even the creator of the curse contract cannot remove this power. "

"Why does this thing feel like an evil object used to control others?"

Shi Liang said without hesitation after hearing the effect of the curse contract.

Once some unequal terms are written in a contract and then forced to sign, the other party's life and death are directly controlled, which is simply chilling.

"What the Patriarch said is correct."

The old housekeeper's statement confirmed this idea.
"The original purpose of the Curse Contract was to keep it secret, but there are always a few people with bad intentions who use it to control others."

"Therefore, this item is expressly prohibited by the Magic Associations of the Five Continents."

Shi Liang and Li Yu looked expressionlessly at Zhan Kong, who had a cigarette butt hanging out of his mouth, and then turned their gaze to the old butler who remained calm.

Ok……

A clear ban?

So where did this thing come from?
Are you kidding us?
The old butler who had seen the world naturally didn't care about the strange looks of the younger generation and said:
"The head of the family and the little brother should also know that this world is not so bright."

"So even though the Curse Contract is expressly prohibited, it cannot be completely eliminated due to its unique function of keeping secrets."

"and……"

The old butler looked meaningfully at Zhankong who was listening indifferently.
“The production of a Cursed Pact is extremely difficult and dangerous, so its number is extremely rare.

Only the Zu family of the Curse family in the country has a very small output. This family has a huge influence not only in the country, but also in the world. In addition, they can see the situation clearly and give most of the Curse Contracts to other forces and families. They don’t keep many for themselves, so they get tacit approval. "

"Curse contracts are basically circulated among the world's powerful forces. Only a few of them will flow into the public through the black market. A single curse contract has been sold for a sky-high price of hundreds of millions."

The old butler paused, then continued:
"To be honest, I only knew about this cursed contract by chance. Zhan Kong Tong was able to come up with this item, which shows that he has a strong background!"

Oh?
Shi Liang became interested. It seemed that Zhan Kong was not just an ordinary military commander?

Li Yu's reaction was calm. A long time ago, he had guessed that Zhan Kong had some past that he did not want to recall. Since the latter did not say anything, Li Yu would not ask.

"As expected of an old man, he is really well-informed."

"Since the old man has explained it so clearly, I guess he knows my purpose?"

Finally, Zhan Kong, who had listened to the old butler's explanation throughout, spoke with a calm tone.

"Please give the Patriarch and me some time."

"Please."

Zhan Kong stood up and left the room, and Li Yu followed him, the two standing side by side.

Zhankong looked into the distance, but he didn't know where the end of his sight would be.
"If you have anything to ask, just ask."

"what?"

Li Yu said indifferently:
"Is it Boss Zhankong's background or the origin of this cursed contract?"

"Is it important? At least so far, Boss Zhankong has never had the intention to murder me."

"It seems that I really underestimated you." At least with Zhan Kong's experience, he could not hear any falsehood in Li Yu's words. He felt deeply moved that he could actually gain such trust from the young man.

However, there are some things that Zhan Kong still needs to explain, so as to prevent Li Yu from suffering irreparable losses in the future due to some cognitive errors.

"First of all, the old man is right."

"In China, the Curse Contract can only be made by the curse wizard of the ancestral family."

"And I do have some connection with my ancestral family."

"but……"

Zhankong began to emphasize his words, indicating that the point had come.

"Be careful when you meet people from the Zu family next time. They are all experts in the curse system and are very difficult to deal with."

"Of course, it's best to stay away from them. If not, you won't lose if you meet them head-on with your strength. You just have to be careful of them using dirty tricks."

"Curse mages don't have much else to offer, except for a series of evil tricks. If you're not careful, you'll fall into their trap."

"As for this cursed contract, it has been my collection for many years. I was planning to throw it into a corner to collect dust, but it turned out to be useful."

"But there is something wrong with what the old man said."

"This cursed contract sounds terrible, but it is not impossible to break it."

"Hmm...what method?"

Li Yu asked with interest.

"hehe…"

Zhan Kong was quite satisfied with Li Yu's attitude towards learning, and immediately explained:

"It is true that the cursed covenant cannot be forcibly broken by external force, but it is magic after all. The fundamental lethality of the curse system comes from mental power."

"As long as the strength of the contractor's mental power exceeds the power of the imprint in the curse contract, it can naturally be forcibly erased from the depths of the soul, but it will take a period of time to weaken."

"Is it that simple?"

Li Yu was a little surprised. Just now, after listening to the old butler's description, he thought this was something as troublesome as a leech.

"Simple?"

Zhan Kong glanced at Li Yu.
"It's easy for you, but it may not be easy for others."

"The production of the Curse Pact requires a considerable amount of mental energy. To ensure that the complicated production process is carried out without error under such consumption, the magician's mental energy level is extremely high."

"Therefore, the creator of the Curse Pact is usually a super-class magician."

"Curse mages have special magic systems that make their mental power far superior to their peers, let alone super-class curse mages."

"Even if the spiritual power in the Curse Contract is not all that the creator has, it still cannot be compromised by anyone."

"I want to erase the curse mark left by the super-class wizard..."

"Only super-class mages."

"So, do you still think the curse contract is easy to resolve?"

Li Yu: "At least it's simple for me."

Super level? Is it difficult?

Zhankong: You are quite arrogant, but you have the qualifications to be so.

"So don't think the Cursed Pact is something incredible. If it were really that powerful, it wouldn't have been circulated so widely."

If the cursed covenant really has no solution, then the victim will become someone that everyone will hate.

Then can the Zu family have exclusive possession of such a heaven-defying thing?
"Let's go, it's almost time, let's go in and see what those two have chosen."
