192 The Curse of the Elf
It turns out that in recent times, all the extraordinary people who follow Ms. Vera will encounter all kinds of bad luck inexplicably.
Some people tripped their right foot while walking and broke their legs, some choked on drinking water and coughed and broke their ribs, and some were hit on the head by tiles falling from the roof...
Rudy didn't expect this to happen, and Captain Omasil didn't tell him before he came.
Could it be that this Lady of Vera is cursed, causing all the supernatural beings who protect her to suffer bad luck?
Rudy frowned and immediately checked carefully to see if there were any abnormal magic fluctuations around him. If there was really a curse, there would be no clues about it.
But in Rudy's field of vision, he did not find any abnormal conditions in the entire Oak Manor.
He could only temporarily suppress the suspicion in his heart and asked about the missing maid.
Ms. Vera motioned to the housekeeper to let him do the talking.
In fact, as the owner of this place, Ms. Vera had little impression of the missing maid.
But the housekeeper can only provide some basic information, such as the maid's name, family background, and the usual work she is responsible for.
Sounds normal, no notable details
"Go and take a look at the place where the maid lives." Rudy suggested.
"Okay, on the first floor." Ms. Vera readily agreed, and expressed appreciation for Rudy's vigorous and resolute attitude.
Soon several people arrived at a bedroom on the first floor dedicated to servants.
Although it is occupied by servants, the conditions are not bad. The room is very spacious and has south-facing windows, making it very ventilated and comfortable.
"I know that I need to protect the scene, so no one else has come in here since someone was found missing that day." Ms. Vera said, looking at Rudy expectantly.
He seemed to hope that Rudy could perform a wonderful mystery show on the spot like the protagonist in some detective novels.
It's a pity that Ms. Vera is destined to be disappointed.
Rudy didn't even come close to check, he just stood at the door in a daze.
Both Ms. Vera and the housekeeper of the manor were a little strange.
It took a few minutes for Rudy to look at the heavy cabinet next to the bed.
Stepping into the house, Rudy went straight to the cupboard.
Just when everyone thought he was going to open the drawer of the bedside table, Rudy waved his hand and used gravity to move the bedside table to the side. Then he reached out and fumbled on the wall behind the bedside table for a moment. Suddenly, there was a "click" and a secret door opened.
.
Rudy reached in and pulled out a small wooden box.
As Rudy's hand touched the surface of the wooden box, a magic circle with a green glow was immediately activated.
"It's the seal of the Church of Nature!" Rudy was very familiar with this green magic.
Rudy pressed his hand, and the Qi Dao jade flashed out in his palm and disappeared immediately.
In an instant, the magic circle on the surface of the wooden box was disintegrated by the Taoist Jade, and the cover immediately popped open.
Inside the wooden box, between the red cloth substrate, was the corpse of a smelly humanoid creature.
It was an elf, only about ten centimeters tall, with two pairs of dragonfly-like wings on its back. It was a very cute and friendly little creature living deep in the forest.
But now, this little elf was brutally disembowelled and pierced with iron skewers like a skewer.
If you look carefully at the iron tag that penetrated her body, there was obvious bleeding where it was inserted, which means that it was probably cruelly inserted while she was still alive!
As the seal on the wooden box was broken, a strong resentment instantly emerged from the elf's body.
With the help of this resentment and some evil ritual, a vicious curse can be completed on a certain person or thing.
Rudy looked at the elf's body and found that a note was stuffed into her open stomach.
Rudy frowned and carefully used his eyesight to pull the note out of the corpse.
Recently, his gravitational overweight has reached level 9, and he is barely able to perform such detailed and extremely difficult moves.
As the paper was pulled out, it was slowly unfolded.
Sure enough, as Rudy expected, it was a vicious curse on Ms. Vera.
Or rather, the curse is not on Ms. Vera, but on anyone who buys this oak estate.
What Ms. Vera is currently experiencing is just the beginning. As the curse progresses further, she falls into the abyss step by step until she finally dies of despair!
After seeing what Rudy found and the results of this vicious curse.
Ms. Vera's face was pale, and her eyes could not help showing panic.
"Well~ I mean, what should I do?" Ms. Vera swallowed, but her throat was still dry.
"Don't worry." Rudy smiled: "This curse is not difficult to break. Just destroy these things. The real difficulty is to find them."
As he spoke, a Taoist jade appeared in front of Rudy, turning the wooden box, the body of the elf inside, and the note into fly ash.
There was a stabbing sound, and the moment Qiudaoyu came into contact with the elf's corpse, a ball of black gas suddenly emerged from it, and various sharp and painful screams were heard.
Then the black energy surged and transformed into something resembling a human form, stretching out two black claws and rushing towards Rudy.
In that black figure, there was a pair of malicious eyes, staring at Rudy fiercely.
Ms. Vera screamed suddenly and almost sat on the ground in fright.
The housekeeper also turned pale with fright.
Only Judy didn't care and had absolute confidence in Rudy.
Rudy raised his head to look at the black shadow, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and instead smiled, whispering: "Ms. Eve, long time no see!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the elf's body, together with the box it contained, turned into fly ash, and the black shadow that emerged was also affected, completely collapsing from bottom to top.
In the end, the black shadow did not pounce on Rudy.
And in the dock area of Glinton City, in an inconspicuous house.
Ms. Eve's face was pale, she covered her chest with her hands in pain, and she was vomiting blood.
This is the magical backlash caused by the curse being broken.
Not only that, Ms. Eve will have to bear more serious consequences next.
In the final analysis, any curse cannot circumvent the evil god, and the effects of all curses cannot be separated from the power of the evil god.
The process of cursing is actually a process of praying and borrowing the power of the evil god.
In this process, Ms. Eve, as the person who initiated the curse, will inevitably have soul-level contact with the evil god she prays to and reach a contractual relationship.
Now that the curse has been broken, it stands to reason that this contractual relationship will also be terminated accordingly.
But evil gods will not reason with humans.
In this case, Ms. Eve must provide additional compensation to compensate the evil god for the losses caused by the curse being broken.
Otherwise, the effects of those curses will backfire on Ms. Eve.
"Damn it!" After a moment's recovery, Ms. Eve became so angry that she smashed the crystal ball in front of her with a bang.
But inside the crystal ball, the shadow of the evil god appeared on every fragment of the crystal ball, staring at the embarrassed Ms. Eve with sinister and teasing eyes...
Meanwhile, at Oak Manor.
After dealing with the curse, Rudy walked around the manor again, during which time he specifically asked to go under the oak tree in the backyard to have a look.
Unfortunately, it was almost as he expected. When he touched the giant oak tree, there was no special reaction, just like an ordinary tree.
What was even more surprising to Rudy was that when he came last time, he found that there were at least three magic cores in this giant oak tree, but when he came this time, he found that all those magic cores were missing!
Rudy couldn't help frowning, thinking to himself: "The magic core is gone! Is this oak tree dead?"
But looking at the leafy oak tree, it doesn't look like it's dying.
But where has the original magic core gone?
With this question in mind, Rudy extended his vision as far underground as possible, wanting to see if those magic cores were hidden underground.
The root system of giant oak trees is extremely developed, and the underground roots are even larger than the trunk and crown on the ground.
But Rudy searched and found nothing.
In short, in its current situation, this giant oak tree has lost its extraordinary characteristics and is now just an ordinary tree with abnormal development.
This made Rudy very disappointed.
And his emotions also affected Ms. Vera, making her tremble and fearful, thinking that there were other problems besides the curse in the manor.
When he returned to the main building again, Rudy said that there was no problem, but Ms. Vera was still trembling. The impact of the curse on the elf just now was too great for her.
In the final analysis, she is just an ordinary noble lady who is well protected.
But I don’t know why I came to Glinton this time and bought this Oak Manor, which is inextricably linked to the Hal sect.
This is obviously looking for trouble for yourself!
Moreover, what is even more strange is that the security force around Ms. Vera is surprisingly weak, which is obviously out of proportion to her status and financial resources.
Rudy vaguely smelled a hint of conspiracy, and before leaving, he couldn't help but look at Ms. Vera with a strange look.
This lady was very sensitive. She felt Rudy's eyes and her brows suddenly furrowed.
But she was very smart and did not stop Rudy from stalking him. Instead, she used a magic note to contact Captain Omasil after Rudy left.
Although the two are not really close friends, their relationship as former classmates is there.
On the premise that there is no conflict of interest, Captain Omar Hill is not stingy in helping his old classmates.
Half an hour later, Rudy returned to the Knights' station and came directly to Captain Omasil to report.
Chapter completed!
