The dull sound of footsteps continued to ring out in the same place for a long time.
After looking around, Athir walked forward and watched the man in black disappear.
"Completely disappeared?"
After checking the surroundings and confirming that the man in black had completely disappeared, he was puzzled and ordered the chip in his mind: "Chip, replay the image just now!"
As the orders were given, scenes emerged in my mind and replayed over and over in my mind.
However, in the images recorded by the chip, there was no man in black from beginning to end, and everything was very normal, as if the scene just experienced was a complete illusion.
But looking around and feeling the unique feeling of facing the monster just now, Athir did not have any doubts, but the doubts in his heart increased.
Waving his hand, he asked the guard who was walking quickly to the side to retreat. With a calm expression, Athir quickly walked to the wooden door not far away, and then opened the door under Thor's nervous eyes.
When I opened the door, a cold breath came from the front. A girl was lying quietly on the bed. The black mark on her body kept wriggling and was shrinking at this time, quickly shrinking back to her forehead.
And on the girl's chest, a purple stone was placed there quietly, emitting a faint light, which made the black mark on the girl's body gradually fade away.
As if she had noticed Athir's arrival, the girl on the wooden bed turned her head and faced Athir.
A pair of cold eyes suddenly fell on Athir, revealing weirdness and madness.
The girl's eyes were open at this time, and her entire pupils turned white.
If you look closely, you can see some delicate black textures in the white eyes, as if there is a mysterious and strange power, and I don't know what it represents.
Standing there and looking into those eyes head on, Athir couldn't help but frown, feeling something was wrong.
This feeling came and went quickly. It seemed that because the man in black was dealt with by Athir, without the support of external forces, the power in the girl's body finally went dormant. Her pure white eyes returned to normal and closed again.
"Yana..." A low voice came from beside me.
Standing behind Athir and seeing the girl's appearance just now, Thor stood there in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.
"I think I need an explanation."
Looking at the other person's appearance, Atier spoke softly with a very calm expression.
"Lord Athir."
Staring at Athir, Thor came back to his senses and a guilty expression appeared on his face.
"This matter... is very complicated to explain."
He was stunned for a moment, then a wry smile appeared on his face.
················
"According to the elders, our clan should have been the descendants of the ancient wizards, and the sacred bloodline of the ancient wizards is passed down in our family."
Walking side by side with Athir in the garden, Thor began to narrate: "However, unlike the descendants of other ancient wizards, our clan has a certain mission and is guarding something for generations."
"That is a legacy of the ancient wizards. It is a very scary thing. The reason why we have become what we are now is also due to the influence of this thing."
"Did something go wrong with the seal?" Athir asked back.
"Yes." Thor smiled bitterly, "I don't know what happened. One night, the power of that thing suddenly erupted, and the curse hidden in the blood was triggered, causing the tribesmen to die one after another."
"curse?"
Hearing this, Athir couldn't help but frown.
"That's the kind of thing."
Facing Athir's gaze, Thor pointed to his forehead and smiled bitterly.
There was a faint mark on his forehead. Although it looked very faint, it did exist.
"This is the curse."
Thor sighed: "The curse on me has actually already erupted, but it is suppressed by the power of my blood, so it is temporarily fine."
"But as time goes by, the power of the curse will become stronger and stronger. When the power of the bloodline can no longer suppress the curse, it will become like Yana. The power of the curse will completely explode all over the body and attract that kind of thing."
As he spoke, his face was full of bitterness and reluctance.
On the side, Athir frowned as he listened.
In the wizarding world, curses are undoubtedly very troublesome things.
There are many sources of curses. Some are so simple that even apprentices can cast them, while some complex and terrifying curses will still stubbornly exist even after thousands of years.
The curse that has been passed down from ancient times on Thor is undoubtedly an extremely terrifying one.
"I will take Yana away from here soon..."
After a moment of silence, Thor spoke again: "If I continue to stay here... I'm afraid it won't be good for you, Lord Athir."
"Where are you going?"
Athir asked back without changing his expression.
"I don't know." Thor's face was a little bitter: "Try to stay away from here. The farther away, the outbreak of the curse will be suppressed to a certain extent, which can delay the outbreak a little longer."
"You're fine."
Athir glanced at him and said, "But that girl's body has begun to mutate. If you take her away from here, I'm afraid something will happen immediately."
Hearing this, Suo was stunned, and the bitterness on his face became more obvious: "I didn't expect... Even Yana..."
"Are you interested in making a deal with me?" Athir's voice came from the side.
··················
At night, in the spacious laboratory, Athir stood quietly in the center of the laboratory.
In front of him was a large white platform, on which was lying a little girl.
Standing there quietly, Athir drew some blood from the girl, then turned around and shouted to Thor, "Take off her clothes."
"Ah?" On the side, listening to Athir's words, Thor was stunned and looked a little at a loss: "This... is not appropriate."
"What's inappropriate?"
Athir turned around and looked at him: "Didn't you already see her clean when you changed her clothes before?"
After hearing what Athir said, Thor's face turned red. After hesitating for a moment, he walked forward obediently and took off the girl's clothes one by one.
On the other side, standing in front of a test bench, holding the purified blood, Athir was also constantly observing.
The vision in front of him continued to expand, and with the help of the chip, Athir watched quietly.
Unlike normal people's blood, the girl's blood appears to be red, but it actually has a dark purple hue.
In the purified blood, through the continuous magnification of the chip, Athir also saw purple blood chains, flashing with a certain faint light.
Different from the blood chains that Athir had seen in the past, the purple blood chain in front of him also had some black substance on it, which was rooted in the purple blood chain and formed another unique structure.
Only after expanding his vision to the limit did Athir see the true appearance of those things.
Those that were rooted in the bloodline chains were actually another, even smaller bloodline chains. Although tiny, they were extremely complex. At this time, they were densely rooted in the purple bloodline chains, as if they were wrapped in a black shell.
"This is?"
Seeing the scene in front of him, Athir was stunned: "Two different bloodline powers?"
He turned around and continued to look forward.
Dense purple marks and black marks continued to entangle, each forming a blood mark.
However, there is something different, the purple blood mark not only looks extremely broken, but is also being corroded by another powerful blood mark. Almost every blood chain is parasitized and wrapped by another blood chain, and the whole thing looks almost entirely black except for a little purple.
And from the combination of black marks, Athir also saw something clearly.
It was an extremely complex pattern of three snakes. Every texture and every scale on it was made up of countless blood chains. There was a strange power, as if it were alive.
Watching this scene, Atier felt something strange in his heart. A ray of mental power emerged from his sea of consciousness and poured into the three-headed snake mark.
boom!!
As if someone had hit him hard on the head, Athir felt as if his head was about to explode. A feeling of mental tearing came quickly, accompanied by a rapid loss of mental strength.
In his sight, stimulated by the mental power, the three-headed black snake seemed to come alive, a black blood force flowed, and the three-headed black snake suddenly looked at Athir, its pair of snake eyes filled with indifference and death, gradually glowing.
"An unknown force field has been detected. The subject's mental energy is rapidly dissipating. It is recommended to stop immediately!!" In his mind, the alarm of the chip was sounding rapidly.
Standing in front of the test bench, Athir gasped heavily. His pair of pure black eyes had changed at some point and turned into snake eyes, looking cold and indifferent.
bump!!
A loud bang came quickly in his mind, and Athir quickly retreated, finally stopping the loss of mental power and no longer being affected by that power.
"Lord Athir, what's wrong?" Thor's concerned voice came from the side. Looking at Athir's current appearance, he seemed a little confused.
"It's okay." Shaking his head gently, Atier's face returned to calm, without showing any abnormality.
However, the scene just now caused a wave of waves in his heart.
"Is that the origin of the curse?"
Standing in front of the test bench, thinking about the scene just now, Athir frowned secretly: "Three-headed black snake..."
"Chip, check relevant information." The next moment, Athir gave orders to the chip in his mind.
"Task established... Database established, data comparison started..." A prompt from a chip machine sounded in my mind.
