The mysterious knowledge hidden under common sense, or even contrary to common sense, was difficult for ordinary people to understand. Even Ogyust, who had lived for three centuries and devoted a lot of energy to studying witchcraft and taboo knowledge, had misjudged many things. He did not know what the true body of the vengeful spirit was, but based on the voices he kept hearing in his hallucinations, he thought that the "dark monster" had been divided into two parts by the witch, one of which was suppressed in the depths of the frozen Siberia, and the other part was entangled with him. Based on this judgment, he made the decision to keep a distance from the Andrea family, and strictly limited the frequency of his contact with the Andrea family based on the witchcraft knowledge he had collected from God knows where. This was the source of the strange and obscure letters.
Many of the measures he had taken were ridiculous and useless in the eyes of real experts, but at least the decision to "stay away from Siberia" was very wise, especially when he took something out of the room. Vivian was even more convinced of it.
Ogyust came to Vivian with a complicated black wooden box and presented it with both hands. "The stone is in here."
"What's this box for?" Vivian looked at the wooden box curiously. "Why does it look so familiar?"
Ogyust was surprised. "Have you forgotten? This is also what you gave me. You also specifically told me and my descendants to keep this box safe, because you said that one day you might come for it. I thought you came for this box. "
"Did I?" Vivian frowned. "Oh, it seems that I still missed something."
She opened the wooden box as she spoke and saw the inconspicuous little thing inside. "This is the second piece. There is indeed a part of the vengeful spirit's power left on it. It seems that I had overexerted my power and did not notice it."
Hao Ren saw a palm-sized oval object lying quietly in the box. It was really different from the first device kept by the Andrea family. There were concentric circles on the surface of the object, and there was a small hole in the middle. Other than that, there were no bumps or bumps.
It was hard to tell from the appearance that this thing had anything to do with the first device.
"What a strange thing. What the hell is the vengeful spirit?" Hao Ren muttered. He took out the triangular gadget from the Dimensional Pocket and put the two "stones" together. "No response?"
He picked up the two strange "relics of the vengeful spirit" and moved them back and forth, putting them together or hitting each other gently. But the two things neither made a sound nor saw a light. Lily was amused. She hurriedly came over to fiddle with it. Hao Ren hesitated for a moment before handing it over. He knew that the husky had a hobby of collecting stones. He hoped that the silly lady would not take a bite...
But Lily fiddled with it for a long time, but it was still the same. There were no signs of activation or activation: no one knew how to use it.
The husky had no choice but to return the stone to Hao Ren dejectedly. But from the look on her face, it was obvious that she wanted to add the stone to her treasure trove.
"It seems … there's something missing," the MDT floated out and circled around the two 'stones'. "I can sense that they are resonating, but the resonance signal should be sent to another device. There's no third-party device here, so they can't receive any feedback, and there's no movement."
"Another device?" Hao Ren frowned. He suddenly thought of the rift in the vengeful spirit's dimension. "Is it really that door? Is this stone the key to the door? "
While Hao Ren was discussing the vengeful spirit with a few half-baked experts, Ogyust was frightened when he saw them putting the two "stones of curse" together. He opened his eyes wide and coughed violently. "You can't put them together..."
"It's okay, we have killed the evil spirit." Hao Ren waved his hand carelessly. At the same time, he felt an unpleasant chill in his hand when he held the second "key". The lingering breath of the vengeful spirit was still lingering on it. "Sanba, help purify this thing."
Nangong Sanba glanced at Hao Ren. "You have a fish that is better at exorcism than me, okay? Let her shout."
"Oh, that's right," Hao Ren suddenly realized and then patted his chest. "Lil Pea, come out and shout."
The little mermaid immediately popped out from Hao Ren's collar. She had been paying attention to what was going on outside. Although she did not quite understand the principle, she knew that her dad needed her. So, she happily cleared her throat at the second "key stone" in Hao Ren's hand. However, before she could sing the first note, Hao Ren felt the chill in his hand disappear in an instant.
"Oh my... this efficiency," Nangong Sanba looked at Hao Ren's demon-hunting fish as if he was looking at a monster. "What is the principle behind this fish?"
Hao Ren had been struggling with this question for the whole day. Now, he said his guess, "I suspect it has something to do with the power of Lil Pea's demon-hunting fish."
Nangong Sanba was stunned. "What the hell is a demon-hunting fish?"
"It's not just a demon-hunting fish. She has directly received the power of the first generation of demon hunters. In terms of realm, she is almost on par with the ancestors of the demon hunters." Nangong Wuyue could not help but cover her face when she recalled the messy process of Lil Pea's power. "Brother, don't ask anymore. It's hard to explain without two or three thousand words. I'll tell you when I have time."
Nangong Sanba was stunned because Hao Ren did not have time to explain to him that Lil Pea had received the power of a demon hunter through the Sacred Relic of Origins. Ogyust was even more shocked. He had seen many extraordinary things in his life, but he had never seen a mermaid before. Especially this mermaid, who was only a foot long...
Nevertheless, he was a man who had lived for three centuries. He had seen the war between werewolves and vampires. At this time, the old man was still very calm. Vivian glanced at him. Unsurprisingly, even though the aura of the "stone" had been cleared, Ogyust's body still had traces of the vengeful spirit's obsession. She patted Lil Pea's head and said, "Yell a few more times."
The little mermaid was overjoyed. For the first time since she was born, she felt so powerful. She yelled at the old man. This time, everyone's attention was on full alert. When they finally heard Lil Pea's voice, there was a strange force spreading along with her voice. The cold, twisted aura on Ogyust's body was like a strong electromagnetic wave that had encountered strong interference. It instantly collapsed into a meaningless wave and disappeared.
"When we get back, we must check what new abilities Lil Pea has." Nangong Wuyue frowned as she looked at Lil Pea who was babbling excitedly. Under the little mermaid's sharp and clear voice, the gloomy aura left by the vengeful spirit's obsession quickly receded. Nangong Wuyue even felt that her spreading mental power was being disturbed by some kind of harmless but real. "... Also, it's better to teach the little mermaid a few decent songs. At least we can't always use Little Apple in the exorcism ceremony..."
At this time, Ogyust finally came to his senses. He realized that the voice that had been haunting him for three hundred years had been easily removed in this joking process. His whole body was in a great shock. He was refreshed again, stood up and rubbed his hands to thank everyone. Vivian waved her hand to stop his over-excited reaction. "To be honest, I'm a little curious. Since the 'stone' has caused you so much trouble, why don't you just throw it away? You're not like the Andrea family, who have been targeted by the evil spirit and trapped in Siberia. "
"To be honest, I did think of this in the early years," Ogyust looked at the two "stones" in Hao Ren's hand with a complicated expression. "And I did throw them away a few times, but every time, they would come back to me like a curse. As long as I leave it for more than seven days, they will find me. I've given up. "
"Seven days too?" Hao Ren and Vivian looked at each other in surprise. "The Andrea family can't leave the castle for more than seven days either. Is it the same reason?"
Compared to the Andrea family, which was directly trapped near the vengeful spirit, Ogyust was obviously less affected. He was only troubled by nightmares, and the "stone" did not kill him. However, the two curses had many similarities: the victim could not be too far away from the cursed object, and could not be away for too long. The cursed object would try to inject inexplicable information into the victim's memory. All these characteristics were very curious.
The vengeful spirit was an irrational creature. What was the meaning of these "curses" that it created with obvious purpose and regularity?
"I've got the two stones." Vivian temporarily put these questions aside and turned to Ogyust. "Pavel, will you come with us to the Andrea Castle?"
