hunter rule

The dilapidated display window and the surrounding messy plants cover the small attic in front of you.

The most remote location in the entire Oak Academy is right here.

Zhao Guangli shook his head. It was obvious that as the center of differential treatment, Zhao Guangli had always lived in this kind of place.

Jike seemed to be used to this place. He shrugged and pointed to a similar loft next to this dilapidated loft: "Then I'll leave first?"

"Okay." Zhao Guangli nodded, and he slowly walked along the cobblestone path on the ground towards the small door of the attic.

The walls were covered with strange green plants, and the whole attic looked full of life, but there was a faint smell of dust in the air.

For Zhao Guangli, who came from time-travel, having such conditions is already quite good. After all, such a building can almost be called a villa.

The wooden door was locked tightly. Zhao Guangli did not push the door directly open. His vision turned to the flower potted plants next to the door. It was probably because no one had taken care of them for more than a month. Many weeds sprouted from the potted plants.

"According to personal habits..." Zhao Guangli gently turned sideways, gently pushed the potted plant next to the door with his fingers, and slowly searched for it on the porcelain base of the potted plant.

Soon, under the third potted plant with a flower similar to a rose, a slightly rough-shaped key lay there quietly.

Zhao Guangli found it a little funny. He picked up the key. The key fit perfectly with the iron lock on the door. With the sound of mechanical gears turning, the attic door was opened easily.

A familiar smell of dust came from the pavement, making it clear that no one had lived here for a long time.

The entire attic is divided into two floors. There are many broken marks on the wooden floor. There is almost no furniture in the entire attic.

Zhao Guangli waved his hand, and in the kitchen not far away, the mechanical pipes were also covered with a layer of dust.

There was only one copper desk in the entire living room, with many paper documents placed on it, also scattered on the floor.

"It's really similar to what I'm used to."

Zhao Guangli crossed the hollow of the wooden floor, his black cloth shoes making no sound on the floor.

Following the stairs, Zhao Guangli easily climbed to the second floor.

The second floor seems to be more private than the first floor. In addition to Zhao Guangli's original room, there is also a special study room.

Dust fell lightly on Zhao Guangli's shoulders. Zhao Guangli opened the window of the study room to let in the outside sunlight.

There are actually not many books in the study room, and it can almost be described as few.

The huge bookshelf only houses a few books.

"Introduction to Occultism".

"On Innovative Technologies in Industry".

"Changes in a Mysterious New Era".

Zhao Guangli pinched his eyebrows with his right hand: "It's all a mess."

None of these books look brand new, as if the original owners had read them over and over again.

On the table, several yellowed newspapers were stuck to the bottom of the glass plate. They must have been stuffed in intentionally by the owner.

"The secret of Black Iron Castle, the legendary cursed family."

"Is the strange swamp lake lady rumor true or false?"

"News from Rising Daily: An explorer saw a mysterious creature in Prism Lake [Blackwater Swamp]."

Most of the news has been cut out individually. The paper of the newspaper is yellowed, but there are no stains.

"Black Iron Castle Strange News Supplement, the personal experience of the rumored cursed hunter clan."

For a young man like Zhao Guangli in the 21st century, these news are almost equivalent to anecdotes. If he was not born in the [Blackwater Swamp], there is no way that Zhao Guangli would believe these.

Weird content.

But now it seems that these things may not be fake.

These things should have been left by the previous owner of this house. I don’t know what they mean.

wrong.

Zhao Guangli suddenly felt enlightened.

The so-called last master should actually be the original Zhao Guangli.

What exactly does this guy... want to do?

Zhao Guangli touched his head, his face expressionless, he just felt a little depressed.

Including entering the [Blackwater Swamp], Zhao Guangli always felt that these things were filled with a strange atmosphere. It seemed that the center point of the incident was himself.

The original ‘self’.

"The word that appears most often in these excerpted and cropped news is curse."

"Curse?"

Zhao Guangli lowered his head and approached the news papers.

An anecdote circled directly with quill ink is pressed on the lower left side of the glass plate, making it look a little conspicuous.

"More than a hundred years ago, there was a family of hunters in Black Iron Castle who had made a living by hunting for generations."

"The members of this family are proficient in hunting skills and are a famous local wealthy family."

"But one day, the ancestor of this family abandoned his beloved and was cursed by the strange transformation of his beloved."

"From now on, all the men in this family will die tragically in various ways."

"And the age at death is getting younger and younger."

"Since then, the family has declined."

The story in this section should be in the middle of the entire newspaper, and is generally used to fill the page. The editor of the newspaper will not be responsible for the authenticity of this story.

And the vast majority of readers will just watch it for fun.

However, the original Zhao Guangli seemed to attach great importance to this.

"I always feel that this hint is too obvious." Zhao Guangli frowned.

According to the known settings, Zhao Guangli himself was born into a hunter family. Under such circumstances, there are rarely such weird coincidences.

Moreover, while inside the swamp, the terrifying swamp witch seemed to have mentioned that there was a curse on Zhao Guangli.

What's that?

Zhao Guangli carefully recalled what the swamp witch had said.

curse.

Lake...the female curse.

"It's not so unlucky, right?" Zhao Guangli's back felt a little cold, and he patted his chest: "Is it possible that this hunter family was cursed by the Lake Lady in [Blackwater Swamp]?"

Zhao Guangli was extremely calm at the moment, and he turned his attention to the article about the Lake Girl.

"About thirty years ago, the Prism Lake in the [Swamp] would inexplicably echo with a woman's singing."

"Some explorers said they had seen a woman dressed in white on the rocks beside Prism Lake."

sorry.

If the incident of Cursing the Family is really about Zhao Guangli himself, then in terms of timeline, it is completely inconsistent.

Then... what is the significance of the excerpts about the strange news about the Lake Girl?

Zhao Guangli looked at the black writing and felt slightly faint.

The handwriting on the newspaper began to become distorted.

"what happened."

Zhao Guangli's hand began to hurt, and an eye-shaped black line slowly appeared on the inside of Zhao Guangli's hand.

As if something was tearing Zhao Guangli's elbow apart, his vision began to become chaotic.

In the entire space, there was only a small line of red text under the newspaper news.

Zhao Guangli was half-kneeling on the ground, trying hard not to let his eyelids droop.

"What word is that..."

"Very important……"

A slight murmur came from Zhao Guangli's ears, as if everything was distorted.

Blood-red characters spread out and lined up in front of Zhao Guangli's eyes.

"Use curses... to fight curses."
