Chapter 14. Soul Sucking Monsters

The snake was a creature of the same level as Milolo Lux. It had a high attack level and a low defense level, but it was poisonous. To newbie players who had almost zero poison resistance, it could kill them with one bite. The mud-colored skin design was no less malicious than Miyazaki Hidetaka’s.

However, under the command of the password, it dug into the ground after sending the treasure out.

The chest was opened, and there were four items inside.

[Evenlyn’s Headband (accessory): All attributes +1, Reputation with the Light Elves -1.]

“A shiny white hair band.”

The -1 reputation was very interesting because the Light Elves’ reputation to all players was 0 by default. As long as it was reduced by 1, it would become indifference. Indifference meant that the animals in the Light Forest would take the initiative to attack you from time to time. If you were not careful and fought back, your reputation would drop rapidly. It could be said to be a trap full of malice.

[Young Felolin Branch (short wand): Intelligence +2, Casting speed +0.12]

“A young branch of a Floreen Tree. Pure magic power is flowing on it.”

As for the weapon, there was nothing much to say. This small wand could be used up to level 10 or so.

The only problem was that the Floreen Tree was a symbiotic tree of the Light Elves. If a person with a bad reputation appeared in the Light Forest with it, he would be mistaken for a robber.

[Blood-stained Broken Finger (ornament): Strength +1, Constitution +1, Charm +1.]

The finger’s from a dead person. Would anyone wear this thing on their body?”

In “Fantasy World,” accessories were a general concept. Things like brooches, hairpins, headbands, and even tattoos could be considered accessories.

Apart from wearing it, it had another important use, which was to give gifts and increase favorability.

Nothing was more suitable than giving an ornament. It was of little value, but it had extraordinary significance. ƒ𝐫𝒆𝐞w𝗲𝚋𝗻૦𝘷e𝙡.c𝑜𝙢

Moreover, the hidden attributes of each accessory were not as hard to grasp as the equipment. They were very clear.

To give a sad example, you tried your best to find a pure white heavy armor that contained holy power and gave it to the most powerful Paladin of the United Holy Empire, Laurentia, in an attempt to gain favorability. In the end, when Laurentia saw the armor, he used “Wrath of Light” to kill you because the material of the armor was the skeleton of his seventh uncle, it was dug up by grave robbers for many years...

Accessories were fairly simple. Everything was written clearly, and the trap was written on it as well.

For example, an “Elven Headband” could be used to gain favorability, and it was best if the target was someone who would never go to the Light Forest in their life.

Char took out a hair band and personally tied it for Ksenja.

She glared at him charmingly, but she did not dodge.

He gave the remaining two items to the two of them to choose from and picked up the fourth item.

[Milolo Lux’s Heart.]

A warm heart, pink to the touch, still contracting and expanding.

“What’s this?” Apple Pie asked.

“It’s a witch’s heart. You can release her from purgatory by crushing it.”

“Hey, is this the doing of that Dark Elf named Evelyn?”

Evelyn not only sealed her heart but also let the Soul Sucking Monsters torture Milolo Lux to death.

“Maybe, I don’t know.” Char shrugged.

“Finally, there’s something you don’t know!”

Apple Pie patted her small chest as if she was relieved.

Char did not know whether to laugh or cry. He patted her forehead and said, “Get up. I’m going to release her from purgatory.”

“I’ll do it,” said Ksenja.

Char shook his head and declined her kind offer.

In Ksenja’s mind, this kind of evil thing contained a very strong curse, and there would usually be side effects when destroyed. She did not want Char to be infected.

The fact was that Milolo Lux’s heart was cursed. If the witch destroyed it herself or manipulated others to do it, she would lose the chance to be free forever. However, if someone else destroyed it, that person would suffer the pain of the curse on behalf of Milolo Lux.

It was a debuff that constantly reduced one’s health points, and one would be chased by Evelyn forever.

The one who cast the curse was Evelyn, an extremely perverted sadist Dark Elf. Unfortunately, her Soul Sucking Monsters had gone berserk, and she was trapped in her own home by a demon.

In “Fantasy World”, all the monsters, demonized beings, and magical summoners that were related to negative energy came from Zin’rokh.

The Destroyers of Worlds followed the will of the abyss and spread despair. When he judged that the world was so bad that it was beyond saving, he would destroy it.

The appearance of the Rotten Forest, and the demonization of the wild beasts on this land were all caused by the mana that seeped out of the Zin’rokh’s nest.

The Soul Sucking Monsters were indescribable magic summoners, and they were gifts from Zin’rokh to the despairing people of this world in response to their prayers.

Evelyn was such a despairing person.

When she prayed, Zin’rokh responded to her in the other world and gave her a weapon that was especially effective against spellcasters, the Soul Sucking Monsters.

Then, when Zin’rokh came to this world and built a nest, his mana skyrocketed and the monsters increased by five levels. Evelyn immediately could not suppress and control the Soul Sucking Monsters.

She suffered heavy losses.

That was why Char dared to destroy it with his own hands, without the slightest worry that the Dark Elves would find him through the curse.

Char took over Ksenja’s broadsword. 6 points of strength were enough for him to control her sword so that he would not miss the target.

With a slash of the sword, the heart and the Floreen Tree behind it were split apart.

Behind him, he could hear the witch screaming. The whole Rotten Forest was rustling, and it converged into a low wail.

The sound slowly disappeared, and everything was settled.

It was only dusk at that time, and the golden sunlight shone into the forest for the first time in decades.

The fluorescent ferns attached to the tree trunk fell to the ground like dried mud. The Floreen Tree, which had lived and died with the Dark Elves, slowly withered and disappeared under the sunlight...

[You have killed Milolo Lux (soul form). You have received 2500 experience.]

This was the full amount of experience points that Milolo Lux had gained, and it was truly a solo kill by Char.

At the same time, a wisp of black Qi flowed out of his heart.

[You’ve been infected by Evelyn’s poisonous kiss. You’re losing 10% of your maximum health points every hour.]

From the outside, it looked like he was wrapped in a wisp of black Qi.

“Char!”

Ksenja immediately leaned over and looked at him with concern.

“I’m fine. Don’t worry.”

Char touched her face.

“There’s definitely something wrong with them,” Apple Pie said in a low voice.

“This is a game for all ages. How bad can it be?”

“Hmph, I can’t say for sure, but there must be a problem! This is a woman’s intuition!”

Air Conditioner smiled helplessly.

After the Floreen Tree completely disappeared, a large hole was revealed in the ground. Char went in first, and the others followed closely behind.

The underground tunnel was dark and long, and there was a faint sound coming from the front.

It sounded like a woman’s cry of pain. Her voice was extremely suppressed as if she was about to die in the next second.

However, compared to the screaming of the witch, it was more like a sound that all four of them understood.

The atmosphere was strange.

The sound became louder and louder at the end of the tunnel, but it was blocked by a stone door.

“Be prepared.”

Char turned around and reminded them with a strange expression.

Then, he slowly turned the mechanism on the stone door.

Char then pulled with force!

Whoosh!

The stone door was pulled open, and the woman’s high-pitched scream suddenly became so clear. Other than Ksenja, the other three were temporarily dazed.

Along with the sound, black, slimy tentacles also came out of the tunnel! It was simply overwhelming! f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂

Ksenja hurriedly swung her broadsword to block the attack, but the tunnel was too narrow for her to swing her sword well. She was also afraid of accidentally hurting others, so her controlled her movements to the minimum. Secondly, the power of the tentacle was far beyond her ability to resist. She was caught by the ankle and dragged into the stone door.

Air Conditioner struggled the most and was sucked dry almost instantly, triggering the protective offline measures. The character died, and the person was forced to go offline.

Char had dealt with the Soul Sucking Monsters too many times, so he completely gave up on resisting and acted like a dead person. The Soul Sucking Monsters only took away 10% of his health before losing interest in him.

As for Apple Pie...

She was different.

Not only was the female thief not afraid, but she was also very happy!

“Oh, my god. Don’t tell me that he’s a masochist?”

Char was shocked, and his eyes happened to meet with Apple Pie’s eyes...

“He really is a...”

A few seconds later, Apple Pie was sucked dry, and she was sent back to the cemetery.

Seeing this, Char did not hesitate any longer. He stomped his foot and rushed through the stone door, chasing after Ksenja.
