Dorothy's Forbidden Tome

"That...it seems...it seems...this incident seems to have a little something to do with me..."

Scratching her head, Dorothy thought with a little embarrassment, obviously, what Nunot just told Nephness, the extremely cherished spirituality that is used to maintain extraordinary items against curses, is very likely to be "Revelation", It was the "Qi" who deliberately joined forces with Beverly to raise the price maliciously when Dorothy wanted to cheat the Eight-pointed Nest not long ago.

At that time, Dorothy, who had just fought the divination battle with the Eight-pointed Nest, leaked the news to Beverly, and at the same time used divination to stimulate the Eight-pointed nest, causing them to panic and snap up the "Kai" that was maliciously raised in price, promoting The explosive increase in the price of "Qi" on the Tivian Extraordinary Market not only affected the Eight Pointed Nest, but also affected the entire Tivian's hidden world. Various secret associations have seen this wave of " After the unusual skyrocketing of the price of "Qi", people began to feel worried, thinking about whether to buy at a high price and hoard a little, which led to the price of "Qi" not falling down until now.

Dorothy made a lot of money from this wave, but what she obviously didn't expect was that the impact of her previous operation was obviously more far-reaching than she had expected. For example, Boi now The situation of Er's family is something she did not expect.

"I didn't expect this kind of situation to happen... But fortunately, this matter is very easy to solve now, isn't it just 'revelation'... Yes, it happens to be able to see the treasure stolen by Grandpa Neveu...

'Able to absorb the 'enlightenment' spirituality to fight against the curse, so that is to say, the main spirituality that creates that curse is actually 'sabi'?It makes sense for the undead in the ancient tomb to curse the tomb robbers with the spirituality of 'Ji'. '

Dorothy thought of this, as the instigator of this incident, she naturally wanted to help deal with it. Fortunately, for her, there was no shortage of "enlightenment".

Then, Dorothy began to write on the "Wenhaihangzhi" in front of her, and reminded Nephness to check it with the puppet mark.

……

East Tivian, the Boyle house.

In the study room on the fourth floor of the mansion, Nephness and Nunott were standing here. After listening to Nunott's words, Nephnessy showed deep worry on her face.

'I didn't expect... Dad's question is actually because of the curse that grandpa said to bring back, is the curse of North Ufiga so powerful?It can actually span thousands of miles and curse us along the line of blood...'

Nephness thought this way, and when she thought that this wave of curses was not only aimed at her father, but more likely to be transmitted to herself, the panic in her heart deepened.

"Grandpa Nunot, the sudden increase in the price of cherished spirituality is certainly one of the reasons, but don't we have some reserves at home for emergencies?" Nephness asked Nunot, who sighed Reply.

"Well... there are some reserves, but who would have expected that the power of the curse would suddenly increase greatly, consuming all the stored spirituality at once, and just as I was about to make an urgent purchase, I just happened to catch up with this There was a huge price increase in spirituality that led to this situation."

Nunot said that because the price of "Qi" is very expensive, if you buy a little more, the price will increase significantly, so if you are not particularly rich in financial resources, it is impossible to buy a lot at once for hoarding. So the Boyle family's spiritual reserve of "Enlightenment" will not be too much.

And after listening to Nunott's words, Nephness finally understood that what happened this time was caused by the sudden strengthening of the curse and the skyrocketing price of spirituality. events, generally do not occur.

"So... Grandpa Nunot, what should we do now? We can't just do nothing now."

Nephness spoke anxiously to Nunot, and the other party replied in a deep voice.

"Hey... Now I'm going to sell some of my family's property and find a way to gather enough cash to buy some spirituality for emergency, so I'll let this wave go for a while.

"But now the master is unconscious, and I'm just a housekeeper, and I have no right to dispose of the property of the Boyle family, so Miss Nephness must come forward. That's why I sent a telegram asking you to come back urgently." , Some legal emergency procedures must require Miss you to come forward."

Nunot said seriously that for them, the most urgent task now is to collect cash urgently. Although the price of spirituality is ridiculously expensive, after selling some of the property of the Boyle family, they can still raise a little money. money's.

"Well, it can only be like this now, no matter how you say it, press the curse back first..."

After listening to Nunot's words, Nephness also nodded and said in agreement, but at this moment, she suddenly felt a strange feeling.

"Uh, that...Grandpa Nunot, I'll go to the bathroom first, and I'll be right back."

After being slightly startled, Nephness spoke hastily, and Nunot naturally nodded without any reason to stop her.

Then, Nephness immediately opened the door and walked out of the study, came to the bathroom, and then took out a history book from her bag, opened it, and saw Dorothy handwriting.

Holding the book, Nephness carefully watched the message written by Dorothy. The more she looked at it, the wider her eyes were, and the more she looked at it, the more she couldn't help evoking a trace of a smile.

"The spirituality of 'Enlightenment'... is that so? The Rosary Cross, it turns out to be an association specializing in the study of 'Enlightenment'...that's really great..."

After reading the text on the book, Nephness couldn't help muttering, the original anxiety on her face was swept away, then she immediately put the book in her hand back into the bag, and then walked out immediately After leaving the bathroom, Nephness quickly returned to the study with brisk steps.

"Grandpa Nunot, where is the extraordinary item that resists the curse?"

Back in the study, Nephness spoke to Nunot, listening to Nephness's words, Nunot was slightly taken aback, and then spoke.

"That item is protected in the secret room in the basement of the house. What are you asking this lady for?"

Nunot asked Nephness, and Nephness spoke slowly after hesitating for a while.

"Uh...Grandpa Nunot, you don't know something. In fact, I am not ignorant of the extraordinary and the secret. I joined a club that studies the mystery at school, and I really learned something..."

When Nephness spoke to Nunot like this, Nunot frowned slightly after hearing Nephness's words.

"In Guanda...there is actually a club for researching secrets? How could a group of students do such a dangerous thing! Miss, you have to quit quickly!"

Nunot said in a serious tone, after hearing what he said, Nephness paused, and then continued to speak.

"Hey... Now is not the time to talk about this kind of thing, Grandpa Nunot, what I want to say is that I have learned some knowledge about Extraordinary items when I was in the club. So now I want to take a look at the real Extraordinary What kind of item is it, as the heir of the Boyle family, I should have the right to see this extraordinary thing that is related to the life and death of our entire family."

Chapter 280 Three Family

Nephness said to Nunot in this way, after hearing what Nephness said, Nunot paused, then nodded and said.

"Of course, miss, you have the right, but I still want to advise you, just look at these things, don't be fascinated, and don't even think about in-depth research, this is likely to lead to disaster."

Nunot told Nephness, and Nephness nodded seriously.

"Well, I will keep it in mind, so now Grandpa Nunot, take me to the basement to have a look."

When Nephness said this, despite her repeated pleas, Nunot couldn't resist, so she also walked out of the study and walked downstairs along the stairs, followed by Nephness.

Soon, Nunot took Nephness to a collection room on the first floor, where Nunot touched a mechanism behind the portrait, and then a wall in the collection room opened, The stairs leading to the bottom were exposed, and Nunot carried a gas lamp and walked up the stairs. Nephness followed closely behind, and looked around curiously all the way. This was the first time she came to the house. hidden part.

Soon, the downward stairs came to an end, and Nunot and Nephness stood in front of an iron door. Nunot opened the iron door with a key, entered and then entered an underground room, and Light the gas lamp inside.

The light illuminated the dim space, and Nephness was able to see the scene in the room. This is a not too big underground space. The room is empty as a whole. A large magic circle. The main body of the magic circle is a closed eye. In the center of the pupil of the eye is a stone seat, and a metal scepter is inserted on the stone seat.

This scepter is about as tall as a person, and it is made of dark yellow metal, but it is impossible to distinguish what metal it is from the color. The scepter is engraved with fine carvings, and the head of the scepter is a flying wing The eagle-shaped decoration, the workmanship of the whole stick is very exquisite, just looking at the appearance is a very valuable work of art.

"This is... the extraordinary item that has protected our family from the curse for so many years?"

Looking at the scepter in front of her, Nephness murmured, and Nunott nodded in response.

"Yes, this is one of the most precious treasures obtained by the old master in Northern Uffiga, a scepter with the ability to resist curses, this thing has protected the old master and even the entire Boyle family for decades time, but now it lacks the spirituality to support its operation, so its effectiveness is constantly waning."

Nunot replied, listening to his words, after nodding, Nephness stepped forward, walked to the scepter inserted in the stone seat, and carefully examined the things in front of her.

'According to Miss Dorothea, the spirituality that this thing lacks is called 'revelation' spirituality. Although this kind of thing is very precious on the outside, it is nothing to the Rosicrucian who studies 'revelation', just you and me There is also a certain 'enlightenment' spirituality now, it just needs to be injected into it. '

Recalling the message Dorothy wrote to her just now, Nephness thought of this, under the recent hard work of "studying", Nephness has read three or four secret biography, and extracted a lot of things in her body. According to Dorothy's suggestion, now she can inject these "enlightenments" into the scepter to restore its function to full state.

Without too much hesitation, Nephness, who trusted Dorothy very much, gently placed her hand on the scepter, and then began to inject the "enlightenment" spirituality into her body according to the method Dorothy taught in the book, For a moment, the scepter on the stone pedestal emitted a slight purple light. Seeing this, Nunot, who was watching from behind, couldn't help but startled, and opened his eyes in disbelief.

"What, what? This is..."

Nunot, who has taken care of the scepter for decades, naturally knows what the situation of the scepter in front of him means, it is accepting spirituality!

"How is it possible? There is clearly no storage now... How could there be spiritual infusion? Could it be..."

With an expression of disbelief, Nunot looked at Nephness who was standing in front of the scepter, and just as he was about to say something, the scene suddenly changed.

Suddenly, the gas lamps in the underground secret room flickered on and off, and the surrounding light dimmed without warning. The temperature of the air in the secret room suddenly dropped several degrees, and the coldness suddenly climbed over Nephness. the backbone.

'This is……'

Nephness felt something was wrong around her. Logically speaking, injecting spirituality into Extraordinary items should not produce this kind of situation. Just when she was confused, a voice sounded.

"Don't try to hide behind that cowardly shelter again! Boyle!"

Sand thorns, sharp, like the sound of scratching a blackboard sounded out of nowhere in the secret room, startling everyone in it, and accompanied by this sound, a phantom gradually appeared in the midair of the dark secret room. of appearance.

It was a haggard translucent phantom, a tall and completely dehydrated mummy. The mummy wore solemn robes pendant with luxurious gold, and on its head was adorned with towering cobras. The decorated crown, the haggard face without any moisture, and the dark green flames danced in the dark eye sockets.

"Ahhh!!"

"Be careful miss!"

The appearance of the phantom of the mummy in the mid-air directly startled Nephness, let go of the scepter and stepped back a few steps, and let it yell out loudly. He took out a small knife with inscriptions from his waist and threw it towards the phantom, but the knife passed through the phantom directly.

'This...isn't an entity, nor is it a spirit...is it just a virtual image? '

Seeing this scene, Nunot thought in his heart, and at this moment the phantom of the mummy spoke again. His voice was not in Prietan, but everyone present could understand it.

"Davis Boyle, insignificant... despicable... shameless thief! You must pay the price for your actions, even if you die, return to the original soul is the same, your blood will bear the price for you! Don't even think about it Hide forever!"

With a roaring tone, the phantom of the mummy roared loudly in the secret room. Listening to its words, Nephness probably understood that this might be the manifestation of the so-called curse. 'Continue to inject the scepter, so that the state of the scepter reaches the best state to resist the curse.

Thinking of this, Neveu immediately stepped forward to grab the scepter again, but after she took a step, a sense of powerlessness swept over her whole body, and at the same time her consciousness began to blur, and her whole body began to change. Get extremely weak.

Just like that, the weak Nephness fell to the ground all of a sudden, while the phantom of the mummy continued to shout.

"Don't think about hiding in the cowardly shelter again, I will not let go of this opportunity! All Boyle must die! This time your souls will be enslaved by me forever, don't even think about returning to the original!"

The phantom of the mummy shouted, in order to prevent the reactivation of the shelter, the curse that cursed the Boyle family hit Nephness directly.

Chapter 280 Four Praises

East Tivian, on the ground floor of the Boyle family's mansion.

In the secret room where the scepter of the imperial spell is hidden, just as Nephness wanted to infuse the scepter with the spirituality of "enlightenment" and reactivate it, the terrifying and frightening phantom of a withered mummy accompanied by piercing screams The sound suddenly appeared, and at the same time, it was a powerful curse aimed at Nephness.

Affected by the curse, Nephness went limp and powerless. The process of injecting spirituality into the scepter was forcibly interrupted. She fell to the ground with a pale face, her body was completely unable to move, and her consciousness almost disappeared. Nunot who was on the side couldn't help but turn pale with fright.

"Miss... abominable evil spirit!!"

Gritting his teeth, Nunot took out a talisman from his body, stuck it on the palm of his hand and activated it. After the talisman burned, it left a sign of "Ji" with closed eyes on Nunot's palm.

"Exorcism talisman... Get away, evil spirit!" Roaring, Nunot rushed towards the phantom of the mummy, and pressed the hand with the mark on the phantom, but it was completely useless. The person passed through the phantom directly, just like the knife he threw just now.

"Evil spirit? Show me some respect, mortal!"

With a sharp reprimand, the phantom glared at Nunott with pupils that were glowing with green light. Suddenly, a sense of weakness and powerlessness climbed up Nunott's body. Feeling powerless, he staggered and almost fell. He had to hold on to the wall feebly to keep from falling, but he also began to gasp for breath.

Looking at the old man who was panting against the wall, the ghost fire in the pupils of the mummy Xuying didn't show any emotion, it murmured coldly.

"A mortal at such an age didn't die right away? Hmph... so he has no blood relationship with Davis Boyle, but is he just a close relative? And he is a psychic, so he can adapt a little bit."

After muttering, the phantom of the mummy looked at Nephness who was lying in front of the scepter again, and then continued to speak.

"Among the blood heirs of Davis Boyle, there is still a spiritual enlightenment, which is surprising, but the accident is over. Unfortunately, it could have slowly tortured your family..."

Saying that, the phantom of the mummy seems to have begun to aggravate the curse on Nephness, and Nephness who fell on the ground felt even more uncomfortable, her vision began to blur, and her consciousness became more lax. After seeing the threat of Nephness, , it seems that it wants to kill it here on the spot.

The mummy intensified the curse on Nephness. The curse from the blood caused Nephness's life to die quickly. Just when her consciousness was about to disappear completely and she lost the ability to move, a force It was injected into her body, and it cheered her up again when she was about to faint.

'This, is this... Miss Dorothy? '

Nephness, who was half awake and half awake, had opened her eyes slightly, and she knew very well where the power that was blessing her at the moment came from, and that was Dorothy in the distance.

……

At this moment, Dorothy in the study of her own house in Greenshade Town is frowning with a serious expression. Now she is connected with Nephness through the information channel. She was very clear about the situation, and she was also surprised by the sudden appearance of the phantom of the mummy.

'Virtual image in the form of a mummy?It feels like an evil spirit, but it doesn’t seem to be. The old black butler obviously used the sigil to deal with spirits but didn’t take it at all. It feels more like something in the projection...'

Dorothy thought so in her heart, from her observation, the mummy virtual image is more like the embodiment of the power of the curse, the source of this curse may be an ancient undead in the ancient tomb under the yellow sand in Ufeiga, And the phantom that appeared in the secret room seemed more like an illusion created by it using the power of the curse.

'If this is the case, then the deity of this undead seems to be very powerful. He cursed the Boyle family thousands of kilometers away in North Ufiga, and he can use the curse to perceive the situation of the cursed person. After Nephness wanted to use 'Enlightenment' to restart the scepter to defend against the curse, she immediately focused the curse on Nephness. This control ability...was a little scary...'

Dorothy thought of this, and the scenes just now in Dorothy's eyes directly set off the power of the mummy itself, and the super-long curse distance can transfer the curse from the original cursed body along the bloodline and even The relationship network spreads to other people, and can even perceive the situation around the cursed person, adjust the cursed object in time, and increase or reduce the curse.

The curse itself is not terrible. What is terrible is that such a curse can be freely controlled and even used to obtain information. Dorothy has reason to believe that the ancient undead who released the curse is a very powerful extraordinary existence.

"How did Neveu's grandpa get into such a thing!?"

After the analysis was completed, Dorothy blurted out like this, and suddenly became interested in Nephness's grandfather, Davis Boyle in the mouth of the mummy. What exactly did he do in North Africa? What made this ancient undead so angry that he didn't know how old he was, and directly cursed his whole family.

'But the top priority now is to save Neveu, and now I just rely on the sigil of life to let her bear the curse, but I can't continue to consume like this, I have to do something. '

Dorothy thought that the reason why Nephness was not killed by the curse at this time was all because Dorothy used the spiritual thread connected with the puppet mark on her body to transmit the buff of the seal of life to her. Relying on the power of the "cup", Neveu's physique was temporarily strengthened, and he was not directly crushed by the curse, but he was also suppressed and unable to move.

In fact, it is very simple to resolve the crisis, that is, as long as Nephness touches the scepter on the stone pedestal, continue to inject "revelation" into it, and activate the scepter again, as long as the scepter is activated , the effect of resisting the curse returns again, then the curse of the undead will naturally disappear.

But the problem is that this requires Neveuth to come into contact with the scepter again. Now Neveuu is already in a state of hanging by life, unable to move at all, and the old housekeeper on the other side is also unable to protect himself Touch the scepter.

This curse from "sabi" has the effect of making Nephness's body tissues and various organs lazy, delaying or even stopping their work to put them to death. Now Nephness relies on Ghou barely maintained a low vital sign, and other activities were suppressed. Under the suppression of the curse, Dorothy couldn't even use the spirit thread to manipulate Nephness's body.

'Hiss... I have to find a way to reactivate the scepter, but now Neveu can't move at all, and I can't give 'Qi', do you want me to go to her house in person now?Neveu’s home is in the East City, and it’s at least a few hours’ drive from my place. Vanya lives in the church area of ​​the North City, and the journey there will not be short. '

Facing the current situation, Dorothy began to eagerly think about countermeasures. After sorting out her thoughts, she focused on how to make Nephness move again.

"Neveu's actions are suppressed by the curse, and the puppet can't even be pulled up, and she can continue to live within the life... If you want her to move again, besides the life... you need some help..."

Chapter 280 Four Praises

Thinking of this, Dorothy suddenly recalled what the mummy said to the old housekeeper just now, and then a thought flashed in her mind.

"When the old butler was cursed by the mummy just now... the mummy seemed to say that if the old butler wasn't a non-blood relative to Neveu's grandfather and was a psychic, he should have died at his age. , according to him... the psychic seems to have a certain ability to adapt to the curse.'

Thinking of this, Dorothy knew what "psychic" was referring to. That was the name of the apprentice level of the path of "Sabi". According to the mummy, the curse of "Sabi" by the Extraordinary of "Sabi" There seems to be a degree of adaptability.

So if Nephness is promoted to a psychic right now... what will happen? "

Dorothy thought so, and then she immediately found that it seemed feasible. First of all, a "Sabi" magic circle was built on the ground of this secret room, which can be used as a promotion circle.

Then, after Dorothy recalled the secret biography she showed Nephness, she found that she had only two "Sabi" secret biography. List.

Although Dorothy did not have physical books in these two secret biography, they were transcribed by Dorothy due to their short length. Just a few lines carved on a piece of bark, which could easily be read at once, and Dorothy copied them in two or three strokes, together with short secret biographies such as "The Song of the Lamb," and added other Some of the short secret biography were given to Nephness together, the purpose is to let her read it faster and accumulate spirituality.
