Landon fell heavily to the ground, feeling all the air squeezed out of his lungs, and he almost fainted.
Although Landon is nominally an S-class adventurer, his actual ability is only at the lower level of a B-class adventurer.
The reason why he was able to be rated as an S-level adventurer was entirely due to the help of Reg and his wife. Of course, he could not be greater than Reg, who had real skills.
but.
"Ugh, ah… I, don't want to!"
"What's wrong with you, Langdon?"
Reg was about to rush towards Langdon who was struggling in pain, but he suddenly felt something strange in his abdomen.
These are terrible.
Looking at the bloody hole that suddenly appeared in his abdomen, the battle-hardened man knew that there was little hope of rescue.
"father!"
"Reg!"
The mother and daughter, who had been hiding in the dark, rushed to Reg, who was lying in a pool of blood, and wanted to use healing magic to save him.
If these two were talented in magic, enough to rival the high-ranking court magician mother and daughter, there might still be a chance to save Reg.
But the current situation does not give them this opportunity.
"Ahahahaha, I, I'm going to make all of you pay the price. All of those guys, all of them must die, all of them must die!"
Langdon suddenly roared like a madman, and his originally white skin began to turn black.
This appearance reminded Wendy and Odelette of a monster, the undead.
"Mom, let me stop them here. Hurry up and perform your healing magic on Dad."
"But…"
"Mom is better at healing magic than I am, so let me stop him."
Looking at her daughter's resolute expression, Odelette couldn't help but feel that this child had grown up.
She immediately knelt beside her husband and began to perform her healing magic.
"Hahaha, it's a good thing you're here too, Wendy. Don't worry, I won't let that guy die so easily. I'm going to enjoy you and your daughter right in front of him!"
Wendy didn't answer. With trembling hands, she gripped the staff and attacked Langdon who was rushing towards her.
Even though the magic hit Langdon, there seemed to be no reaction.
He is more powerful than the undead that Wendy has in mind.
"Ah, so it really has become like this."
Chapter 142: Past History (I)
"Akatsuki, Master Akatsuki..."
Wendy, who had been frightened to the ground by the attack of Langdon, stared at Xiao who was blocking her way with red cheeks.
"Don't call me sir or anything like that. I can't stand that kind of address."
“Well, well…”
"Let's not talk about this for now. Hurry and feed this to Mr. Reg."
"But, is it really possible?"
Wendy nervously took the magic potion, which was obviously worth a lot of money.
"Money is not a problem, saving lives is what matters."
"Ok!"
"Don't ignore me, you bastard!"
After being knocked far away by Xiao's blow, Langdon stood up again and rushed towards Xiao.
Although his attack was extremely swift, it was completely disorganized.
He just swung his fist, so he was easily suppressed and controlled by Xiao.
"Why did you become like this? Did you have any contact with Morpheus and his gang?"
Xiao looked at him, his heart filled with anger and resentment, and he couldn't get any valuable information at all.
"Brother, no matter how much you ask, you won't get an answer."
It was the girl named Hina again, appearing not far away with a fragrance that was familiar to Xiao.
This time was different from the battle with Morpheus, as there was an equally beautiful girl beside her.
It was a bit wrong to call her a girl, as Xiao didn't feel any breath of life from her.
"what do you mean?"
"This idiot was just infected by the curse. Morpheus and the guys behind him don't have the ability to turn this idiot into what he is now."
"Curse, what is that? You mentioned this word last time, right?"
Xiao showed an abnormal expression of anxiety, and the controlled Langdon struggled even harder.
"It's so noisy! You're interrupting my conversation with my brother."
Hina was very annoyed by Langdon's constant roaring, and she waved her arms around casually.
Very suddenly, the air fell into silence.
Xiao discovered that Langdon was no longer breathing.
This girl is very strong...
"Letty, please help me put up a barrier so those people can't hear what I'm saying to my brother. Don't hurt them, please."
Hina glanced at Akatsuki, her last words clearly meant to reassure him.
"Who are you?"
"Since Brother-sama can't remember my mother, even if I want to explain, I won't be able to make you understand, right?"
"What does it mean…"
"My name is Lan Yu Hina, it's been a long time since we last met, Onii-sama. Although it may sound strange to say this."
Looking at the girl's sweet smile, Xiao was suddenly stunned.
He recalled that his neighbor's surname was Lan Yu, although he had not seen him for a long time.
[Wait a minute, neighbor... Lan Yu...]
It was as if he was trying to think of something, but every time he reached the critical moment, his brain would suddenly seem to disconnect.
(If you can’t remember, don’t force yourself. And you too, Xiao Hina, don’t make things difficult for Brother Xiao!)
"Oh, I made Sister Yiwen Jielin unhappy. Sorry."
"Why are you here? And the question you just digressed about, what is a curse?"
"I'm here to save that girl. After all, she's related to Xiao-nii-san, and she's the one who can open the Sanctuary Base, which is something I'm also concerned about."
"Shelter base? What is that..."
"When you get there yourself, Brother Xiao, you'll know the answer. Let me answer another question."
Hina smiled and didn't intend to continue answering Xiao's question, but started another topic.
"Brother, how much do you know about the history of this world?"
"I have a general understanding of this world... but it all started around 10,000 years ago, with the founding of the Central Kingdom of Louis Angel..."
"It seems that Brother Xiao has realized the answer."
Seeing Xiao's stunned expression, Hina seemed very satisfied.
Indeed, it is a very strange thing to know history that goes back more than 10,000 years.
Taking the Earth as an example, the further back in history we go, the closer it becomes to legend.
While there are indeed a large number of historical relics, the historical materials that have been passed down...
Although there are paper documents handed down from Egypt over 6,000 years ago, they are very rare.
But according to Crystal, the Imperial Capital Magic Academy even has quite a few detailed historical materials dating back more than nine thousand years.
Although this world possesses magic, its overall level of civilization is somewhere between the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. If the history of this world's civilization had developed smoothly and continuously, without any interruptions for some reason...
Why does the Central Kingdom still exist? Why can the current productivity of this world support the Rangers? Why can't the productivity of the entire Earth support the large-scale use of weapons...
A large number of issues that he had noticed were recalled at the same time, making Xiao a little confused.
"This curse happened before the founding of the Kingdom of Louisiange. It's more like this: without him, this country wouldn't exist."
Hina showed a somewhat melancholy expression, which surprised Xiao.
"Master, please be aware that you can't say too much just yet. This will ruin the plan we've agreed upon with her."
"I understand, Letty. Onii-sama, although this may not be clear to you, allow me to briefly explain it to you."
After being interrupted by Letty, Hina adjusted her mood.
"Even before the founding of the Kingdom of Louisiane, this world was invaded by an alien civilization called Status.
And in outer space, there are fools who call themselves the Celestials, trying to control the inhabitants of this world to achieve their own goals."
"Hearing the word outer space in a fantasy world is quite strange. The so-called Celestial Clan is what you are now calling the Celestial Spirit Clan, right?"
Xiao recalled Annie's hesitant explanation a few days ago and made such a guess.
"That's right. Furthermore, the original inhabitants of this world, powerful beings called Star Gods, became embroiled in conflict due to disagreements.
The constant chaos attracted life forms that were somewhat similar to the Star Gods, and they were called outsiders or evil gods.
Of course, there are also time travelers like my brother who accidentally entered this world for various reasons.
For some reason, most of these travelers gain extremely powerful powers and are drawn into conflicts."
"It felt like a very chaotic world at that time."
"Yes, it was a mess. But one person resolved the conflict.
He unified the civilization of this world, which we call Nora civilization.
Together with Lady Mia, the last remaining Star God, he united the anti-war forces of the Celestial Spirits and Status to form a very powerful military organization, the Crow.
The Crow knocked those arrogant fools who called themselves gods off their proud space station and forced the Status people, who wanted to use the powerful productivity of their home world to annex this world regardless of the losses, to the negotiation table.
[Even Jielin once mentioned the name Mia. It's probably more than just a name...]
"What do these things you mentioned have to do with the curse?"
"The next step is the key. How about being a little patient, brother?"
"I feel like the setup is a bit long. I get it, and I'm sorry to interrupt you so suddenly."
Chapter 143: Past History (Part 2)
"During the negotiations between Crow and Status, an incident directly related to the curse occurred. Status used a special magical weapon to assassinate three high-ranking members of Crow.
Including my mother..."
"Feel sorry…"
Seeing Xiao's worried look, Hina smiled and told him to relax.
"It's okay. It's been a while since that happened. Let's continue.
The members of the Crows were furious, and the flames of war were reignited. However, because the Crows did not forcefully annex the various states under the Nora civilization, they only maintained a very loose confederation system.
As a result of the unfortunate deaths of the Crow's key members, many races, fearing the Crow's power, secretly allied with Status, and the remaining Sky Spirits also signed a secret treaty with Status.
In fact, Sister Yiwen Jielin also died from serious injuries while fighting against the Dragon Clan rebels, right?
(…Yes…)
"But even so, Crow is struggling to maintain its display due to the existence of the founder.
