"What do you plan to do after this?"
While sitting in the car and driving, Teresa asked.
However, although she was asking everyone, her gaze was fixed on Adil. Clearly, she was most concerned about his thoughts.
"I want to go back and tell my father what happened today. See if I can persuade him to leave this city."
Sitting beside Teresa, Kuss took the initiative to speak. He seemed to have not recovered from the previous incident and felt a shadow in his heart. He wanted to leave this academy and even leave this city.
"It's good to leave." Teresa nodded and said a few words, "The curse that appeared this time is very strong. If it is not suppressed in the beginning, I'm afraid it will expand in the next few months and devour the entire city in the end."
"So terrifying?" Upon hearing Darissa's words, Coral, who was beside Adil, changed his expression as if he recalled something.
"Yes, this kind of curse is like this." Seeming to have thought of something, Teresa's expression turned grave, "You all know about the mausoleum incident 30 years ago, right …"
"I know about this." Kuss nodded, "It is said that the army of another kingdom entered the kingdom's cemetery. Not only did they blow up the entire mausoleum, they also caused great chaos and caused the entire city to suffer great losses."
"Fighting with the army is just an excuse on the surface." Teresa sighed and her expression was somewhat grave, "In reality, that incident was similar to what we encountered today."
"Could it be …" Hearing this, everyone's expression changed.
"That's right." Teresa nodded lightly, "That incident was a typical outbreak of a curse. In the mausoleum, the corpses accumulated in the past were all affected by the curse and turned into monsters. They continuously killed people in the entire city and in the end, they even massacred the entire city. In the process, hundreds of thousands of people died."
"In the end, the scope of the curse expanded once again. It even forced the Violet Flower Kingdom and Steel Nut Kingdom to work together and send out an army to clear the area. Only then did they barely suppress the outbreak of the curse."
Hearing Teresa's explanation, everyone fell silent.
Kuss's scalp went numb. Thinking about the familiar academy in his memory, he felt that his breathing became somewhat heavy.
"Don't worry too much." In the backseat of the car, Adil's eyes were closed. He suddenly interjected, "The curse was heavily damaged by me, and most of the power it accumulated has been consumed. It will be fine for the time being."
Up ahead, hearing these words, the group nodded lightly, recalling the scene that had occurred earlier.
When Adil collided head-on with the curse, they had all witnessed the grand scene. They still had lingering fears about the enormous power that enveloped the entire city in an instant. They could not believe that it was actually done by a single person.
Under the suppression of such a huge power, the main body of the curse did not even have the power to trap the entire academy. It must have suffered a huge loss.
"Speaking of which, this kind of curse isn't rare. Although it's rare to see one of this scale today, smaller ones aren't rare."
Up ahead, Teresa turned around and looked at Coral. "As a police officer, you should know a lot about this, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's gaze landed on Coral.
Under everyone's gazes, Coral's expression turned heavy. After recalling for a while, he nodded solemnly. "Quite a lot indeed."
He was not a new police officer, but an old fox who had been on the job for decades.
In his decades as a police officer, he had experienced many things, many of which were strange. Even now, he still felt a lingering fear when he thought about them. He felt fear and horror, and did not dare to recall them.
Although such incidents were not common, they were definitely not rare either. Basically, he would encounter them once or twice a year. Every time he encountered them, the local police officers would treat them as taboo, and he did not dare to take the initiative to touch them.
"So there are still such things around us," Marcus muttered to himself as he looked at Coral. Looking at Coral, Kuss muttered to himself. He felt a chill run down his spine as he thought of these things.
Sitting in the backseat of the car, Tilly suddenly asked, "Sim, are you alright?"
She looked at Adil with a worried expression.
On the surface, Adil did not seem to be in a good state. Not only was his face pale, but he had also kept his eyes closed ever since he got into the car. He looked quite weak.
"I'm fine." Adil opened his eyes and looked at Tilly with a smile. "I'm just a little tired. It's nothing."
After saying this, he closed his eyes again, looking very tired.
Adil was indeed not in a good state at the moment.
The curse that had appeared this time was different from before. Not only was it too powerful, but its vitality was also terrifying to even Adil.
Facing the main body of the curse, Adil had already used all of his strength to suppress it. At this moment, he felt a stabbing pain in his head, and his mental strength had been greatly depleted.
Of course, compared to his other gains, this was not important for the time being.
"My Realm Energy has increased again."
Closing his eyes and sensing the increase in his Realm Energy, Adil could not help but mutter to himself. He was both happy and surprised.
Previously, when he had heavily injured the curse, his Realm Energy had suddenly increased rapidly, and he had clearly sensed it.
While he was surprised by this unexpected gain, he could not help but think about a question.
"What exactly are these curses?"
Thinking about his experiences after coming to this world, Adil felt quite confused and muttered to himself.
Apart from natural treasures like the World Stone that contained massive amounts of World Energy, the increase in Realm Energy could only be obtained when Adil's actions caused the World Energy to fluctuate.
In the Knight World, no matter if it was affecting Destiny's Child or expanding one's own influence, they were all aimed at this characteristic.
But now, in this world, by causing a great impact on the curse, a similar effect could be produced.
"Could it be that the curse of this world is something like Destiny's Child?"
Sitting in the backseat of the car, Adil thought to himself in Silence, "Or is it because I heavily injured the curse, in a sense, I saved the people in this city, which is why the World Energy descended?"
Both of these hypotheses were possible, but between these two possibilities, Adil was more inclined to the latter.
However, no matter what, he was prepared to find an opportunity to test it out and see if the increase in his Realm Energy was related to the curse.
If it was true, then his purpose in coming to this world this time might have to change.
"Just nice, it seems like there is still a curse carrier lying at home …"
