The Truth of Magic

Chapter 86 - Casting the Curse

Demogogan?

The entire team looked confused when they heard this name, although everyone couldn't help but feel a chill when they heard this name for the first time.

But no one has the slightest impression of this name.

Which mysterious figure is this or the evil god believed by the emerging sect?

"The search failed, maybe there is no such person? It's just some kind of meaningless text." The poet frog said in a low voice. He had just taken turns using "anecdotal knowledge" and knowledge skills.

Zhao Xu frowned, as did his test result.

He had never heard of this name even in the Battle of Demon Sealing in the previous life.

However, when he read about magic in Floating Void City, he paid special attention to demons and devils.

He had seen the name "Demogorgon"—the abyss lord, the demon lord.

At that time, he asked Antinoya, and she laughed lightly at that, saying that he was just a schizophrenic two-headed baboon.

But sarcasm is sarcasm, Antinoya still gave him a few words about Demogorgen's abilities.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xu could only take a deep breath.

Demogorgon has believers in Arthur's main material plane, and even believers have magic, but the power comes from the abyss.

The abyss is inhabited by gods of some evil camps. According to Antinoya, the demon lord "Demogorgon" can be regarded as a low-level divine power of the abyss version on the ground, but powerful divine power may not be able to do it in the home of the abyss Demogorgon is.

However, Antinoya was very confident at the time. If Di Mogaogen dared to set foot on the main material plane, she would kill as many times as she came.

As for why he could come one more time after he died, Zhao Xu didn't ask further.

If that's the case, maybe their team has been noticed just after leisurely pronouncing the name "Demogogan".

It is similar to the fact that the "mysterious person" mentioned in a children's fantasy book will be known by the other party.

Zhao Xu wasn't worried that Di Mogaogen would be so bored that he would come to the hidden sect hidden in Arthur to encircle them. He was afraid that there would be someone behind the mine and even the next dungeon.

Get attention, maybe these backhands will take effect.

At this time, after seeing nothing unusual around them, the team also went to observe the altar.

"It's the evil emblem." Yoyo said, looking at the pattern of a forked tail on the table of the altar.

Hearing this, everyone's heart that had just been let go was brought up again.

It's okay to involve evil gods, after all, it's still a business of your own will, and I'm afraid it's impossible to get rid of the abyss and hell.

"Destroy it?" Roja asked, this was the first time he encountered such a thing.

When encountering these scenes in towns, they usually go to the priests of the righteous gods to come forward, which is also something that can increase their favorability.

It's just that they can't do anything now, they can only report afterwards.

"Okay." The whole room was filled with blood-red names, which already made Maple Leaf feel furious inside, holding back a fire and not venting it.

He directly held the giant sword in his hand and was about to slash towards the altar.

"Wait a minute." Zhao Xu said quickly, "Let's search for any traps first."

When Feng Ye heard these words, she hurriedly backed away a few words.

Although he hadn't seen the traps in the dungeon yet, this thing had already made a name for itself in the forums, and he didn't know how many players it had killed.

"That's right, Hill, come and search." After hearing this, Roja knew that he was affected by the depressing environment in this room, and he didn't react first.

Both Hill and the player Rainbow went up to check if there were any traps around the altar.

Searching is not a skill that needs to be trained, but anyone with normal intelligence can search.

But only the professional ability of rogues can allow them to search out those difficult traps.

After some inspection, both of them shook their heads, indicating that they hadn't gained anything.

"Let's spread out first." Seeing that there was no gain, Zhao Xu didn't say much, but added something out of caution.

"Listen to Zhong Xia." Roja ordered upon seeing this.

Yoyo and the others retreated a few meters away, leaving only Maple Leaf and Roja in front of the altar.

Roja stood guard in front of the altar with a shield, and he was able to block a few arrows shot from inside.

After Feng Ye took a breath, he directly raised his giant sword with both hands and slashed towards the altar.

"Boom."

I don't know that the altar, which has been abandoned for decades or even hundreds of years, was broken by a maple leaf with a single knife.

"ah--"

Immediately after the crack of the altar, a yellow light flashed, and Maple Leaf let out a scream.

"Maple Leaf, what's the matter?" Rainbow, the rogue, rushed up and pulled back Maple Leaf who was kneeling on the ground.

Maple Leaf, who was originally a strong fighter, was already sweating on his forehead. He panted and said, "My physical attributes have been deducted by six points."

"Cursed?" Zhao Xu immediately realized.

Hearing this sentence, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. Roja, who was still holding the shield, also took a few steps back after hearing this sentence.

It seemed that the split altar was smiling ferociously.

"Brother Fengye?" Yoyo hurried up to observe Fengye's situation. Among the people present, she was the only one with medical skills.

Hearing the words "six attributes", Zhao Xu already understood what happened.

The only good thing is that Maple Leaf's attributes are only damaged.

"How much stamina do you have left?" Zhao Xu squatted down and asked.

"There are only 8 points left. I originally had 14 points of physique, but now my physique has been adjusted to -1." Maple Leaf said panting.

After reducing the physique, the most direct impact is the life value of Maple Leaf.

"Brother Fengye, don't worry, just like before, these attributes will recover." Youyou said in relief.

Zhao Xu shook his head, "This should be a curse."

At this time, everyone looked at him, and Roja, who was the highest level in the field, suddenly had a bad association.

"Surveying is a third-level divine spell for priests and a fourth-level arcane spell for mages. It has three effects, one of which is to reduce a certain attribute by six points." Zhao Xu explained, "The altar you just took should be There is a magical trap that casts a curse, and it is triggered after the maple leaf is chopped off."

No one expected that this altar still had a backhand.

This is also the tricky part of magic traps. As long as there are no accidents, sometimes it will not be a problem to last for hundreds of years, unlike ordinary traps that will rot over time.

Zhao Xu looked at the place where the altar was broken, but there was no obvious trace on the wall behind.

But he was sure there must be something strange, and most people would not set traps in the altar for no reason.

"If the spell is cast down, the continuous effect is permanent." Yoyo said with a pale face.

As soon as these words came out, everyone present couldn't help being shocked.

If you lose 6 points of constitution forever, you can really delete the number and start over.

That is to say, for the Maple Leaf Warrior profession, at level 1 Hit Dice can get all 10 points of D10.

If a mage with 10 constitution and D4 hit dice hits it, the health value will directly become 1hp, the kind that will fall to the ground if accidentally touched.

Zhao Xu looked at the magic trap under the altar, and it seemed that his most common hole card would come in handy now——

The thing he took out when facing the druid, and then stuffed back.

Thanks to Daoist V of the Nine Domains for reminding me, I actually forgot to detect the secret door is a spell in the field of knowledge. The protagonist can actually release this spell through a multi-talented spellcaster, so the previous chapter has been changed.
