Chapter 97 Mission Statement
"They will find out sooner or later. The eyes of the whole world are on us now." "
We have to make a decision as soon as possible."
"We can't delay it any longer."
In the dim meeting hall, scattered stars There were several figures sitting on the ground.
A large pendant in the shape of an eye hangs from the top of the hall.
Symbolizing the association's purpose of "staring into the abyss".
A human man sat in the main seat, wearing a well-dressed formal suit, with half of a white handkerchief exposed from his pocket. The light from the window slanted and illuminated his chest below, and his upper body was hidden in the darkness, making it difficult to see his face.
Only the pair of eyes that looked weathered emitted an unnatural green fluorescence in the darkness.
A coin tumbled back and forth with the nimble movements of his fingers.
He quietly listened to the increasingly fierce quarrel among the senior members of the association without saying a word.
"Storage is also a troublesome thing. It has consumed too much of our funds, and the power of the curse continues to increase." "
There is nothing to hide. It can be said that this was an accident to the outside world, and we have been preventing the spread of the curse for this period of time. , maybe some people will think that this is a responsible behavior." "
Don't be stupid, thanks to that elf dwarf, we are on the cusp of the storm now. Once the matter is exposed, neither you nor I will be able to escape." The quarrel continued for a while
, Until someone turned their attention to the silent man: "President, don't you express your opinion? How should we deal with the curse? We can't hide it for long." The coin in the president's hand stopped and slapped on
the On the desktop, an understated voice came: "There is a very easy and simple way to think of. It does not require any funds or manpower. It can solve the problem quietly. Why is no one mentioning it?" "
There was a burst of discussion in the conference hall.
"President, what you mean is..."
"Release the curse and let the world digest it."
There was a sudden silence in the hall.
It's not that they haven't thought about this plan, but no one has proposed it. Because this clearly exceeds the bottom line.
And there are only zero and countless times to break the bottom line.
"It's just a trivial curse, it won't cause the destruction of the world." The president continued to flip the coin, "Our world is very big, and it's easy to digest the power of this curse. Think about how much the curse can cause after being diluted by the world. Impact?"
"From a global perspective, the impact is indeed minimal." After a moment of silence, someone spoke first to express support.
"It makes sense. Maybe a few forests can digest this curse. You know, there are enough plants in the forest." "
But we must be very cautious. Once discovered..."
"We have to choose a place farther away as a Release point."
"This is a task that must be done with caution. It should be classified as the association's top secret."
The discussion in the hall slowly subsided unconsciously.
Xixisuosuo.
Whimpering.
Like a devil's whisper.
...
"A new day has begun."
Hua Mi stretched out towards the rising sun.
I slept well last night and my energy has been fully restored.
Early in the morning, I went to the greenhouse to tend the flower fields as usual.
By the way, I don’t know what’s going on with Clark.
Is there really a way for a unicorn to turn him back into a human?
If it doesn't work out, I don't know where he will go.
After all, as a vampire spawn, it is almost impossible to return to human society.
Hua Mi was thinking about things while doing farm work.
Just before noon, Carter came to the cabin.
He brought Hua Mi two gold coins.
"This is the reward for the mission. Most of it was given by the mayor. The Ford family didn't have much money and only gave some supplies." Carter said, "We all agree that you should get half of it." Hua Mi did not refuse
, After all, he did put in a lot of effort.
"Have all the mission matters been explained?"
"Well, it's all over." Carter looked a little emotional: "It turns out that Teresa most likely committed suicide and committed suicide by taking poison. We found poison residue in her room. From time to time It is inferred that she drank poison after hearing the news about Ford's death."
"..."
Died for love?
Oh, this is so silly.
"So, why did little Ford come to the Black Forest before?"
"To prove himself to Teresa's family. Her family, especially her father and two brothers, thought he was too weak and had always disagreed with Teresa. Lisa was with him.
"Teresa's eldest brother told us that one day he made a bet with little Ford, asking him to come to the Black Forest to accept some test, and if he succeeded, he would be recognized. Teresa's eldest brother just wanted to tease him and didn't take it to heart at all, but little Ford took it seriously and came to the Black Forest alone. But he is not an adventurer, and the environment in the black forest is too strange and complicated for him. Maybe he encountered some danger, or maybe he was poisoned... In short, this absurd and meaningless adventure eventually led to his death.
"He was lucky, and he came back to life on the day of his burial, but Teresa was not so lucky."
I don't know whether to call him lucky or unlucky.
Afterwards, as guessed before, Teresa was possessed by a resurrected corpse and then deceived little Ford.
For example, if you need a certain part of a unicorn to save your life, you will soon run out of time.
Little Ford accepted the vampire contract for her and went with her to deal with the unicorn in the dark forest.
Looking back on the scene at that time, even when Ford was almost losing his mind, he was obviously deliberately protecting Teresa's body from being affected by the battle, which allowed her to leave her whole body in the end.
This shows that his feelings for Teresa are really deep.
The resurrected corpse wearing Teresa's skin could easily control him.
Love makes people blind.
The fake flower spirits burst into tears.
"It's so pitiful."
"I hope they can meet again after death."
"If they could stay in the world as ghosts, wouldn't they be able to be together?" "
Ghosts don't belong to the world. This idea is too selfish. And they are just Ordinary people, it's not up to them to decide whether to stay or not." "
Yeah, if one of them stays but the other doesn't, that would be more pitiful."
Seeing that they were all in low spirits, they couldn't help but It's like a fake flower essence, a withered flower essence.
"Are you in a bad mood?" Hua Mi asked with concern.
"Yeah, this is really a sad story."
"My mood may not get better in the next few days."
Seeing their sad faces, Hua Mi smiled kindly and said, "Then, let's go Greenhouse. Concentrate on your work and be fulfilled, which will make you forget your sorrow."
...
Under the hard work of the pseudo-flower spirits, the flower field is flourishing.
The Mother Goddess’ gift of honey is just around the corner.
The forager bees here are the giant bees and the blue fire bees.
Also added a vampire bee.
Although vampire bees cannot create flames, they inherit the fire resistance of fire bees and are not afraid of high temperatures.
The other branch is also placed in the Perak Flower Field area, hoping that it will produce useful by-products during the honey-making process.
A few days passed, and there was still no news from Clark.
Hua Mi plans to find the tree demon by herself.
With the help of scout bees, this is not an impossible task for him.
So that day, he took the storage container that Alais gave him and set out to find the dryad.
However, the progress was not as smooth as he imagined.
After searching all morning, no trace of the tree demon was found at all.
In addition to keen senses, the job of finding prey also requires experience to a certain extent.
An experienced hunter will advance steadily and methodically.
And he would just run around like a headless fly, with extremely low efficiency.
"This won't work. It's a waste of time."
