Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 2444 Mysterious Birth

"This kind of good luck feels even worse than Reynolds' situation." Angel was surprised.

"There is no need to make an analogy. My story is not finished yet." The inspector may have not communicated with others normally for a long time, and it is rare to find someone to talk to. Once the conversation started, it couldn't stop.

"When this story is told, does it sound like a perfect turnaround story?"

Angel nodded. From a poor man to a rich man, this can indeed be called a turnaround story.

"However, this story is not really perfect."

"Oh?"

"Only Childe's relatives are perfect, and Childe himself is the only flaw."

The inspector continued to tell, and more truth about this story was also spread out in front of Angel.

As the inspector said, luck exists, but this luck does not cover Childe. Not only is Childe unlucky, but he has been unlucky since he was born.

When he was still in his infancy, Childe either fell off the bed or threw his ass into the scalding water due to the negligence of his parents.

This is actually not a big deal, it can only be called a slight misfortune.But as Childe grows up, more bad luck befalls him.

His eldest sister who married out was a vicious woman. She often went to Childe to grab food while his parents were farming in the fields. The poisonous weed sap whose tongue is numb and unable to speak.Every time his parents came back, they thought that Childe had eaten and did not refill him. Over the years, Childe not only had a tongue problem, he could not speak clearly, and was starved to the bone.

Later, the second sister discovered what the eldest sister had done, not only failed to help Chard, but also became an accomplice with the eldest sister.When Child was starved to the bone, the two of them jointly slandered Child, saying that he was cursed by the gods and that he was an outcast who was not welcomed by the gods.

At that time, class solidification became more and more serious, and a large number of elites manipulated it behind the scenes, resulting in the prevalence of illiteracy and anti-intellectual thinking among the poor, and religion became the only authority other than the royal family.Child's parents are also victims of anti-intellectual thinking. They easily believed the words of their two daughters, and became more and more estranged from their own son, Child.

And because they encountered a few outbursts of luck, the elder sister and the second sister even spread it. This is a gift from the gods that their parents disliked Chard.

Childe has always been in a position of being despised in the family, while others are getting better and better luck because they bully Childe wantonly.

The humiliation of the perpetrator, coupled with the inferiority complex that Childe had developed since he was a child, he could not resist at all, and he did not know that the word "dignity" existed in the world.

Thus, a longer vicious circle began.

After more than ten years of violence in this way, Childe's family has become more and more lucky.

The eldest sister has a vicious heart and a lot of thoughts. After so many years of life, she discovered many details.Good luck, for example, disappeared whenever she was away from home, and even at home her luck tended to be normal as long as Child was not around.

Even though the eldest sister didn't know that there was a supernatural in the world, after thinking about it for a while, she vaguely understood that it might be Child who caused their good luck.

But even if she learned some truths indirectly, the eldest sister still didn't treat Childe well, but intensified and directly imprisoned Childe like a beast.

While her mouth is full of divine grace, while she is as majestic as a prison, she makes her parents look up to her.As for herself, she didn't believe it at first, but she deceived herself by talking too much, and became more and more cruel to Childe.

When the inspector said this, he paused and asked Angel: "Speaking of which, what do you think the final outcome will be like?"

"If it is written according to the pattern of the storybook, Childe's family will definitely suffer the backlash of luck and get a bleak ending." After Angel finished speaking, he smiled and changed the topic: "However, I My mentor once told me that it is enough to read only the first half of a fairy tale, which is mostly the emotional self-report of what the author has seen and experienced personally. The nature is similar to that of fairy tales, after all, it only caters to the reader's orientation, and the real ending is often... a tragedy hidden under the beauty."

The inspector nodded: "Your enlightenment mentor is right, but it depends on who you substitute, whether it is a tragedy or a fairy tale. If you substitute the Childe family, then this is a typical fairy tale. If you substitute the Charles De, it's the other way around."

"Because Child's final ending, as you said, was not happy."

Under the deliberate outline of the eldest sister, Childe betrayed all relatives, and finally died in the dog cage in the corner of the magnificent living room because of the infection of the whipping injury.

As for the Childe family, they did not encounter too much evil.

Only after Childe's death, Childe's bad luck began to spread, and they were unlucky for a few days in a short period of time.Later, after throwing Child's body in the graveyard grave outside the city, the bad luck disappeared naturally.

However, because of Childe's death, their bad luck was gone, and their luck returned to normal.But this doesn't affect anything. They already have the background of wealthy businessmen at this time, and even bought titles. As long as they don't kill themselves, there is no problem in passing it on.

"Is this the end of the story? It's very true." Angel: "However, what your lord wants to say should be more than that, right?"

The inspector smiled and nodded: "Yes, Child's story is over, but his influence is very far-reaching, and even led to the siege of a legendary wizard, and he was forced to step into a disorderly situation in desperation. The out-of-order rhythm of things has not returned so far, and it should be dead if there is no accident."

"As for why this is so, can you guess?"

Angel was lost in thought.

He wasn't thinking about the inspector's question, but the inspector's story reminded him of another matter.

Lucas lies.

Lucas used a series of lies to compile a logbook, which recorded a lot of absurd stories, such as tears falling into the sea and turning into a sea of ​​flowers, the forever clear sea in the Devil's Sea, the huge and terrifying island spirit, the luminous wishing tree... …Wait, these were bogus at the time and didn’t exist at all.

But after Lucas died, these original lies came true one by one.Although some can only be said to be barely true, it is surprising that the lies have come true.

After various investigations, Angel finally confirmed the truth.

A lie is still a lie, it's just that when the lie comes out of Lucas' mouth, it becomes the truth.As for Lucas's mouth, it's not a talent for "speaking a prophecy", but...a mysterious thing.

Although there is no obvious connection between Lucas's story and Child's story, the context inside is vaguely similar.

After thinking about these two different things, an answer faintly appeared in Angel's heart: "Is it a mysterious thing?"

The inspector raised his eyebrows: "Your intuition is very keen. That's right, it's something mysterious."

The inspector continued to talk about Childe's story, but this story has nothing to do with Childe, it is after his death.

After Child's death, the body decomposed not long after. As the body decomposed, the repressed bad luck began to occupy the cemetery.

Everyone who stepped into the cemetery would be more or less unlucky after leaving.In the slightest, it will lead to financial loss, and in the severe case, it may even lead to death.

The cemetery is also known by the locals as the "Cemetery of Doom".

The reputation of the Doom Cemetery spread further and further, so some wizard families went to investigate, but none of the apprentices they sent came back from the Doom Cemetery.The wizard family reported this incident to the nearby wizard organization. Seeing that this incident was related to bad luck, the wizard organization thought it was caused by the Erfa wizard, and handed this matter over to the Erfa wizard's lineage.

In this way, an Erfa wizard was sent to the Doom Cemetery to investigate the situation.

Erfa wizards are a special category of wizards in the Westland wizarding world. They can barely be regarded as prophecy wizards, but they are not prophetic wizards, nor do they explore fate, but hide behind fate and manipulate bad luck.

Everything related to bad luck and curses is their specialty.

But an evil magician who has been accompanied by the curse of doom all year round, unexpectedly could not withstand the doom of the doom cemetery, and finally ended in death.

Now, the Elf wizard is fried.A large number of Elf wizards went to investigate.

Then they discovered that none of the elixir wizards could resist the bad luck in the Doom Cemetery. This kind of bad luck even exceeded the limit of the rules, like an unreasonable low-level logic loophole.

The more powerful the Elf Wizard, the easier it is to die in the Doom Cemetery.

Later, this matter spread to the source world. After a large number of legendary wizards went to investigate, it was finally confirmed that it was a mysterious thing that caused the cemetery to be shrouded in bad luck.

Because of bad luck, the mysterious power was covered up, so it was not discovered in the first place.

A mysterious hunter of the lawful guild dug the mysterious thing out of the ground before finally being able to ascertain it.

"And this mysterious thing, I believe you have guessed it, is from Childe. It is a small round bone fragment that fell after his skull was cracked."

"The birth of this round bone piece made many legendary wizards take action for it. As I said before, a legendary wizard was forced into a disorderly rhythm because he obtained the bone piece and was besieged. In desperation , he decided to burn jade and stone together, taking the bone fragments and stepping into the disordered rhythm of other disordered things."

"Unfortunately, he was captured by the disordered rhythm, but the bone fragment stayed."

"Later, this bone fragment was obtained by a fifth-level evil magician. This evil magician has a good relationship with the lawful guild, and he is also a registered mystery hunter. He gave the bone piece to our lawful guild to do it. study for a while."

Speaking of this, the inspector said a digression.

——The lawful guild can analyze the effect of mysterious things on its behalf, and only need to pay a small price.If you have obtained a mysterious object, and its effect on him is not clear, you can hand it over to the lawful guild for analysis.

The inspector also enthusiastically suggested to Angel that if he obtains a mysterious object in the future, he can also go to the lawful guild to find a professional technician to help him analyze it.Quote his name and the price will be much cheaper.

Angel smiled instead of answering.

He believed that the inspector might just have good intentions, but once he handed over the mysterious thing to the lawful guild for analysis, he would inevitably bear the corresponding price.For example, the mysterious thing analyzed will definitely be recorded by the lawful guild; moreover, its own background will be ascertained by the lawful guild.

No matter how fair and objective the Lawful Guild is, it can't bear the change of mind. If someone has evil thoughts, his background will be found out, which will put him in a very dangerous situation.

Skipping this topic, the inspector continued.

"After the research of the lawful guild, Child's bone fragment was finally named: Coin of Doom."

"As for the effect of the doom coin, it is consistent with what Charles encountered at the beginning."

Angor: "Will the holder cause bad luck?"

The inspector nodded: "Yes, the bad luck coins can only be held by humans, and the people who hold the bad luck coins will continue to have bad luck, and this bad luck will increase with time."

"Correspondingly, once the bad luck coin is held by someone, the luck of other people around this person will become better. The better your luck, the more unlucky the person holding the coin will be."

That is to say, the magnitude of bad luck increases in two ways: first, the longer you hold it, the deeper the bad luck piles up; second, the greater the blessings received by other people around you, the stronger the bad luck of the holder.

At first glance, this is a mysterious thing that sacrifices itself for the benefit of the masses.Appropriately used, it seems to be pretty good.

But in the real situation, there are many factors to consider, such as the strength of the holder.

The fate of bad luck will eventually be death.If the holder's strength is not enough, he will die in a few seconds.

As for ordinary people holding doom coins and extraordinary people enjoying blessings, this is even more impossible.

For a transcendent to receive blessings, a transcendent of the same level must accept the punishment of bad luck.

This restriction greatly reduces the value of Doom Coins.After all, many of the people who use doom coins are legendary wizards, and for them to enjoy the blessing of luck, another legendary wizard must hold it.No legendary wizard would want to hold a coin of doom...

"Also, once the doom coin is not held by anyone, it will form a doom field within a kilometer."

"This doom field is similar to the situation in the doom cemetery. Whoever enters will be unlucky. The stronger the strength, the more unlucky."

Overall, doom coins, while effective, are extremely restrictive and rarely come in handy.

Currently, the coins of doom are kept by the lawful guild.Of course, the lawful guild only has the right to contain it and part of the right to use it. The real ownership still belongs to the fifth-level erf magician.

……

After listening to the story told by the inspector, Angel seemed to have a vague understanding of what the inspector wanted to express.

"Your Excellency, you mean that Reynolds' situation may be similar to Childe's?"

The inspector: "I'm just guessing, it's my personal testimony, and there's no real evidence."

"Then if Reynolds is dead now, a mysterious thing will be born on his body?" Angel muttered in a low voice.

The inspector waved his hand: "It's not as simple as you think. Although Reynolds seems to have a talent for luck, it's actually not obvious. It's a bit different from Childe's situation."

Reynolds' luck is not too strong, it can only be said that it is lucky within a reasonable range.

If it was really strong, Reynolds would not have been pulled down so quickly in the Rising Star Competition, but would have triumphed all the way to the top.

Also, more than ten years ago, Reynolds escaped from the laboratory. If he was lucky, he would not be caught back.

Obviously, his luck was not as powerful as he imagined.

"If his luck really shows up to Childe's level, then it's easy to confirm. Now, it's still hard to say, maybe it's just luck?"

"Besides, if Reynolds is killed, there may not be a mysterious thing born. After all, I have never heard of anyone who killed a person with special talents to give birth to a mysterious thing."

"The things I told you are just telling you a direction of thinking, a possibility. It is not an absolute answer."

"As for the mysterious things, in addition to being artificially refined, let it be born naturally."
