Chapter 111

Chapter 111 Blood Curse

Sophia walked up the spiral staircase. “Come with me to the second floor. The patients on the first floor are just so-so.”

“The real trouble is those people who are under the spell on the second and third floors. Once you see them, you will understand why I have a headache.”

Locke knew that Witch Sophia was improving his combat ability. He had actually been mentally prepared when he came here, but he was still shocked at this moment.

However, now that I have seen it, I will have the corresponding experience to deal with similar things in the future.

“It seems that I have to carry a few more bottles of bear spirit bile antidote potion with me in the future.” Locke muttered softly. Bear spirit bile antidote potion is a general special effect potion against curse magic. It can optimize one’s magic resistance and turn the magic resistance into a state of resisting curse magic.

Therefore, carrying this potion with you is the easiest way to deal with the wizard apprentices of the Blood Curse Court in the wild.

Locke followed Witch Sophia and went up to the second floor.

As soon as he reached the second floor, Locke instantly noticed the tense atmosphere.

If the first floor was just filled with people hurrying and some people screaming in pain, then the atmosphere on the second floor was even more depressing.

The second-floor hall was filled with hospital beds. The curse on each wizard apprentice was more serious than that on the first floor, and most of them had completely lost their ability to move.

A shocking roar broke the dead silence.

A first-class wizard apprentice shouted, “Assistant, come here quickly! This patient is under the blood curse. We need to find the official wizards quickly. Only they can temporarily suppress the blood curse!”

“Damn it! This is a blood curse. Those beasts from the Blood Curse Court threw a blood-cursed person here with us. Aren’t they just trying to deliberately consume our resources and make us waste our time here for no reason?”

In his eyes, being hit by the blood curse was equivalent to being dead.

Locke looked over there and saw his first-class wizard apprentice lying on the hospital bed. Blood was flowing out of his skin all over his body. The blood looked very scary. His pupils were dilated, his eyes were blank, his body was abnormally swollen, and every limb seemed to be swollen.

He was still alive because a wizard apprentice was helping him by using a syringe to give him specially prepared blood, which allowed him to barely stay alive.

A formal wizard hurried down from the third floor and pointed his finger at the forehead of the first-class wizard apprentice, temporarily stopping the outbreak of the blood curse.

He looked grim and asked the helpers, “The blood curse requires a potion to detoxify it. Can this student afford it? Is he a student of this school?”

“If you are not a student of this school, you can only have conservative treatment and delay it as long as possible.”

“If he’s a student at this school, have him sign a loan from the college. After he recovers, have him work full-time to repay the medical expenses.”

The helpers quickly checked the list and responded, “Master Edwin, this man is a botany student at our school.”

Edwin said impatiently: “Then let him sign the contract quickly.”

“Once the blood curse erupts, all those connected to him will perish. Because it affects so many people, the accumulated pain will feed back into the curse itself, making it even more impossible to undo it. Once the blood curse erupts, he will be completely beyond salvation. Not only him, but everyone connected to him will also perish.”

Edwin said, “I don’t know what type of blood curse it is, but it’s at least a curse spell cast by an official wizard of the Blood Curse Court.”

“Perhaps, even his friends will be implicated.” Edwin looked unhappy.

Witch Sophia came over and said, “It’s the blood curse of the mother and child giants.”

Edwin turned around in surprise and looked at the witch Sophia, then glanced at Locke. He smiled and said, “Sophia, you’re here. That’s great! Your thinking is always clearer and more agile. With you here, the pressure on me will be much less.”

“Is this your student?”

Witch Sophia nodded to him and said, “Yes. This is my student, Locke Augustine. He just passed the Potions Assistant Certificate, so I brought him here to broaden his horizons.”

“Locke, this is Edwin, the official wizard. He is also one of the wizard instructors of potions at Lilith’s hut, and one of the three official wizards stationed at the Healing Hand.”

Locke saluted Wizard Edwin. “Hello, Lord Edwin.”

Wizard Edwin nodded slightly to him, but didn’t pay too much attention.

After all, there is a huge gap in their identities. Without special reasons, there is no need for a formal wizard to pay attention to a first-class wizard apprentice whom he meets for the first time.

He looked at Witch Sophia and said with a smile, “I never thought that after just two years of your advancement, you’d already have a first-class wizard apprentice. Sophia, you and your students are both fast-promoting types.”

“Come to think of it, after such a long time, you finally brought your students here to help. I thought you would always rely on yourself.” Wizard Edwin showed a hint of fatigue.

“Your student should have learned some of your true teachings. With him coming to help, the pressure on us can be relieved a little.”

Although the situation was urgent, no one dared to interrupt the two official wizards who were chatting in the second-floor hall.

Even the first-class wizard apprentice who had nearly died just now could only hold his breath and wait for the two of them to finish their conversation.

Fortunately, Wizard Edwin finally seemed to remember the main topic and said to Witch Sophia, “The blood curse of the mother and child giants? How come I have never heard of this kind of blood curse?”

Witch Sophia said, “It’s a newly invented blood curse. Or rather, it’s a new blood curse modified from the original old blood curse.”

“The inventor isn’t even a formal wizard, but rather Hussein Quinn, the first-order wizard seed who has the greatest potential to become a formal wizard within the Blood Curse Court. It’s likely that his wizard mentors helped him modify this blood curse.”

“Hussein should have access to the entire Blood Curse Tribunal and all the resources invested in the next generation.”

“You know, the Blood Curse Court is different from us. The wizard apprentices there are slaves of the official wizards. They are a disgrace to wizards.”

Witch Sophia said calmly, “Among the wizard apprentices over there, perhaps only the few seeded players who have entered the wizard sequence can be considered human beings.”

“I learned about this incident by chance.”

Wizard Edwin nodded.

The Blood Curse Court is training wizard apprentices by raising poisonous insects, and ranks all the wizard apprentices who enroll there.

It would not be a problem for a wizard apprentice with a higher ranking to kill a wizard apprentice with a lower ranking.

The top ten that emerged were the wizard seeds of the Blood Curse Court.

Regardless of the pros and cons of this training method, the character of the wizard apprentices trained can be seen from this. They are all ruthless fighters and are indeed powerful on the battlefield.

Often one person can defeat ten white wizard apprentices of the same level and skill.

Wizard Edwin sighed. “It seems like there’s a genius in the Blood Curse Court as well. As soon as they reached the wizard apprentice stage, they were able to develop a blood curse of this level.”

“It’s a pity that such a talented wizard was wasted by dark wizards. If he could enter the White Wizard Academy and study hard, he might achieve greater success in the future. In this world, combat only plays a small role. Magic is not just for fighting.”

“So, how exactly does this mother-and-child giant blood curse spread, Sophia? Do you know?”
