The Righteous Player(s)

Chapter 508
It must have been a long time before the more than 100 successors came to the underground city.

Even if they suddenly decided not to come, Nefertari would not blame them for this—as a wise person, she naturally knew that "benevolence should not be enmity".

And the most important thing right now is to help those three young people.

Let their souls no longer be eroded by nightmares meaninglessly.

"I really don't understand what happened in the nightmare 'Spore Mill'. Just like you don't understand..."

After all, this nightmare is too dangerous.

Once inside, it's hard to get out - like a larva caught in a spider's web.

Those who barely survived this nightmare never dared to try it a second time.

- A wise man never acts recklessly.

When she realized that this nightmare could not be purified by her own power, she would not even try-it would be pointless and put herself in danger.

Not only was Nefertari not entering this nightmare, she even prevented Niwusel who wanted to enter this nightmare back then.

Back then, Niussel was not as stable as he is now.

He is still a hot-blooded boy, like a big dog having fun.I still don't understand that there are some things in this world that cannot be changed by one's own power-this kind of truth.

But Nefertari didn't do nothing.

Although she has never entered this nightmare once, she has done some research in her spare time.

——She did it just in case.

In the future, if there is any chance to solve this nightmare, or the situation is so urgent that you have to enter the nightmare, you can use the fastest speed to grasp the situation.It is not so that the enemy starts to load the bullet when it is in front of it.

This is called foresight.

"I have already investigated what happened in the black mushroom mill back then."

Nefertari said to Niwuser seriously: "You can tell them these things. Maybe it can help them."

"Tell me, I will remember."

Overseer Niusel nodded.

"As you know...the accident at the Black Mushroom Mill happened in July seven years ago. Seven months later, it will be seven years now."

Having said that, Nefertari paused slightly.

Speaking of which, "seven" is a lucky number.

Does this also indicate something?
She shook her head slightly and continued: "The miller's name is Ian, he has a dwarf wife and a seven-year-old daughter Alice.

"At that time, a strange disease was prevalent in this city for a while."

People who worked in the mushroom industry suddenly started to develop blisters.What starts out as red spots turns into clear blisters that become unbearably itchy.

And as they continued to be exposed to the mushrooms, the blisters grew larger and more transparent until they became too difficult to work with.If the blisters are punctured, the people around may be infected with the blisters.

"Seven years ago..."

Niussel was thoughtful: "At that time, you were in the Bone-eating Forest, right?"

"Well, it's not too far from here."

Nefertari nodded, and asked casually: "And you were still on the exploration floor... around the Cinder Barrens?"

Niussel hummed: "Yes, I was very lucky at the time. Then I discovered another mining area, which is the Misero excavation site."

"Then you probably don't know about this. At that time, this place was not well-known. It was a logging area built around the 'Milin', and it was temporarily named 'Black Mushroom Mill'. It was not considered a serious urban area, so it also There are no wise men and diggers.

"The lumberjacks realized that they might be infected by some kind of spore...so they sent a disease-free messenger to the nearest city—the 'Bone Farm' near the Bonechewing Forest. My teacher was there."

As Nefertari said, he reached out and stroked the ritual plate behind him.

Under her dragging, a light blue light appeared on the ceremony plate.Quickly outlined the locations of Ash Forest, Bone Eater Forest, Bone Farm, and Black Mushroom Mill.

"'Bonebuilder' Seti?"

Niusel immediately reacted.

Nefertari became a wise man at a young age, which is not unrelated to her teacher, a golden-ranked transcendent.

Seti, as the most powerful idol wizard in the underground federation, is also the best healer, and a knowledgeable ritual master, no one wants to offend him.

After all, no one knows when he will suddenly need a doctor's help...

Nefertari learned about mysterious rituals from Seti, and also learned some fur medicine skills by the way.Because she didn't want to become an extraordinary person, she was able to graduate from Master Seti early and became a wise man relying on Seti's relationship.

"……its not right?"

Niusel quickly noticed some contradictions: "If Master Seti is there, this kind of small problem should be resolved soon."

Since he hadn't heard of it now, this strange disease had appeared in the Black Mushroom Mill before.That means it's a small thing...at least it got sorted out in the end.

After all, for so many years, he had never seen a similar disease.

"That's the problem."

Nefertari said slowly: "This is not a disease, but a curse.

"It is the cursed poison cast by the mushrooms by followers of 'Black Widow', the god of poison and spiders."

"...So Master Seti can't solve it?"

"How is it possible. Just to see through and dissolve the unknown curse hidden in the 'poison', the teacher needs more time to develop the antidote."

The red-haired woman took a deep breath, "But... lumberjacks, we can't wait.

"For some reason among them, a saying soon appeared: that this strange disease has no cure, and the messenger has taken the opportunity to escape...he will not come back.

"There was panic among the loggers. But they quickly noticed that Ian's family, which is also an industry exposed to mushrooms, was not sick.

"They asked Ian why he didn't get sick. But Ian obviously didn't know, because he hadn't been exposed to poisonous mushrooms. In the end, the lumberjacks who fell into panic quickly came to a conclusion: it was Ian's family. poison."

"There is no evidence for this, it is undoubtedly a false connection. But they were originally unhappy with Ian's family - they are also workers, but Ian with a mushroom mill spends less money and uses less effort You can earn more money.

"In the end, they broke up with Ian's family in the process of 'asking for an explanation' and 'asking for an antidote'. However, the Black Widow follower 'De Ward' who was mixed in the crowd once again encouraged other People - Use Ian's family's liver grind to make an antidote.

"You know, it was a traditional remedy in the frontier days. Of course, we now know that it doesn't work...but they don't know anything about it.

"At that time, about a quarter of the loggers agreed to De Ward's instigation. Although others felt a little inappropriate and too radical, they did not stop the atrocities of the loggers in the end-after all, the Ian family and All of them are unfamiliar.

"They're just watching from a distance.

"Ian's wife is a murderer who escaped from the Duchy of Winter... a silver-rank extraordinary criminal. But she is disabled and tortured by frost beasts for a long time. After being bound by the curse of 'Do not hurt' and 'Do not kill', her combat effectiveness is not as good as before. Her profession is 'Giant Killer', and her professional ability does not help much in combat; and De Ward is equivalent to Black Widow's The bishop, who murdered thirteen people, has mastered thirteen different toxin-type extraordinary abilities.

"After fighting with De Ward, she was lost but escaped smoothly. But seeing Ian being cut open and his daughter still sleeping upstairs, she took a weapon and came back. While killing De Ward, He also triggered his own curse, lost his strength, and finally died of poisoning.

"In the end, their family was pushed into the gear machine for grinding mushrooms. The extremely strong resentment and curse turned into reality, and the endless stream of blood poured out of the machine like an endless river, waiting The thugs holding the 'antidote' were involved with the onlookers, and were finally swallowed by the machine.

"The mill soaked in blood was covered with mushrooms. And half a day later... the messenger who got lost in the misty forest arrived late with the message that 'Master Seti will arrive in three days'.

"But it's half a day late...it's too late for everything."

Nefertari sighed.

In her opinion, Ian's wife is naturally not a good person...but this group of thugs deserved what they deserved.

They deserve to die.

But what confuses her is that the "mastermind", "evil perpetrator" and "bystander" all ended up in the same fate... Now, even completely innocent passers-by will be drawn into a spider web-like nightmare tortured to death.

The mainstream view of nightmare science is that resentment can greatly increase the intensity of nightmares.Because the nightmare is the wound left by the dead transcendent in the world, and it is a bloody last word of "let the world remember my death".

All Nefertari knows is that this nightmare still kills innocent people to this day.

From this point of view—this hatred has been fermented so far, and it has already been deformed.

The victims of the past are now the perpetrators.

——It's time for this [Nightmare] to end.
