The existence of dream demons is magical in itself.
They are monsters made of fear, with different shapes. Some are ghosts, some are vengeful spirits, some are murderers, and some are terrifying and ferocious animals and murderous plants.
Anything that can make people fear can become a nightmare.
Of course, dream demons are divided into levels, strong and weak.
The dream monsters in the third level of dreams are generally very strong, but there are also some that are relatively weak.
Dream demons who are completely dominated by resentment and malice in their hearts are basically very strong, but because they are influenced by dark side emotions, they basically cannot talk well and will kill them whenever they meet.
This is true even for the same kind of people, let alone ordinary people.
Therefore, it is extremely difficult to find an incubus who can communicate.
Or it's just that the strength is not enough
This type of incubus is more likely to be able to communicate, so most of the incubi encountered in the Howard family are of this type.
For Lin Mo, even this type of dream demon is very difficult to deal with.
Before, Lin Mo really didn't dare to mess around.
But it's different now.
Just by upgrading the Burning Curse, Lin Mo's strength was qualitatively improved, and he was qualified to fight these dream demons. In addition, he was merciless and took the initiative, and ended up hacking two of them to death in the blink of an eye.
, burned one to death.
There was chaos within the Howard family.
More people rushed over.
Lin Mo took a quick look and gave it up.
The effect of establishing prestige has been achieved, mainly because there are tough ones among the few dream demons who came here this time.
And even if we take action now, we no longer have the first-mover advantage.
The other party has already been on guard.
With vigilance, there is no need to take advantage of opportunities.
As for how to end it, this has nothing to do with Lin Mo. He has done everything he should do, and the rest is left to 'Ben'. I believe the other party can handle it well.
If it's not handled well, then Lin Mo won't waste time here.
He will leave and continue to do his own things, because it is not worth his continued investment and there is no basis for cooperation.
If 'Ben' can clean up this mess, it means that this little guy is brave and resourceful, and only in this way can we gain benefits and benefits from cooperation.
Lin Mo gave 'Ben' a look, then ignored the others and got directly into the carriage.
How to appease the members of the Howard family who have suffered a loss and how to solve the problem are all left to 'Ben'.
As I said before, you can't really treat the other person as a teenager.
Those who have been dead for hundreds of years are considered old ghosts.
What is an old ghost?
Sophisticated and calculating, the city is like the sea.
At first, there were fierce quarrels and abuses outside. 'Ben' didn't seem to respond and just accepted it, but he stopped everyone who wanted to get close to the carriage.
Lin Mo glanced out of the car window and knew that this 'Ben' was much stronger than other members of the Howard family.
Being unfazed by honor and disgrace and not being confused in times of crisis are the basic qualities for doing great things.
Not surprisingly, those rubbish outside can't handle 'Ben' at all.
I really don’t know why people in this family don’t pay attention to each other. Is it because ‘Ben’ looks too young?
It is possible.
Lin Mo didn't care about other things. He was resting and recalling the feeling of using the upgraded burning curse just now.
Very good.
As long as it touches the opponent, it can be released.
Of course, the effect of a finger touch and the entire palm touch are different.
The larger the contact surface, the more lethal the incineration will be.
In addition, you need to pay attention to the strength and frequency when using the burning curse.
Because the Curse of Steel, which is balanced with the Curse of Burning, has not yet been upgraded, you must be careful when using it.
Otherwise, it cannot be suppressed.
Once the curse gets out of control, instead of killing the enemy, it will definitely kill itself.
This must be noted.
After waiting for a long time, the sounds outside became quiet. After a while, Ben came over and knocked on the carriage door.
"Sir, can you come with me?"
Lin Mo nodded.
Get off the carriage and follow 'Ben' for a walk around the Howard family's estate.
During this process, Lin Mo could clearly feel that someone was watching him.
And, there's more than one.
What is this doing?
Test whether this ‘devil’ of yours is controllable?
Cooperate first, but this cooperation is not unlimited. Lin Mo cooperates with "Ben", but the other party must also give adequate response.
Otherwise, this transaction will be stopped by Lin Mo at any time.
At that time, in order to recover compensation for mental damages, Lin Mo may kill Ben or some members of the Howard family.
As soon as this idea came up, Lin Mo himself was a little surprised.
When did my thoughts become so cruel and extreme?
This style of doing things is becoming more and more like a real dream demon.
"Could it be that this time the dream took too long and the level of the dream was too deep?"
Lin Mo said to himself.
Strictly speaking, the time he spent in his dream this time was indeed very long. It had been at least more than ten days since he dealt with the strange disappearance in Ice City and entered the Street of Terror until now.
But this was not the limit of time for Lin Mo to fall asleep.
So it doesn't matter if I break the record this time. The meaning of the existence of records is to be broken and broken again and again.
As for his own body, Lin Mo was not worried.
Although the conditions in Bingcheng are not as good as those at the General Administration, the basic life support system and equipment are still complete. Once the life support system is turned on and the body monitoring equipment is used, there will be no problems.
So Lin Mo didn't have anything to worry about.
After following 'Ben' for a while, Ben took him to a special room in the manor.
"Sir, I will leave for a while, wait a moment, and I will be back soon."
Lin Mo nodded.
Obviously, the next thing is the most important thing. 'Ben' obviously wants to compete and negotiate with the family. Of course, this is also his business. Lin Mo looked at his pocket watch.
Said he could wait another hour.
Maximum two hours.
If there is no result after two hours, the transaction will be void.
'Ben' said he would come back as soon as possible.
So, let’s wait.
Although he was told to wait in the house, Lin Mo didn't even listen to his parents. How could he listen to a kid who looked like he was only a teenager?
As soon as Ben left, Lin Mo opened the door and started wandering around Nuo Da's manor.
As I said before, the Howard family is very rich and has been in existence for more than two hundred years. There have been many dukes and even a duchess in the family.
From what Lin Mo has observed so far, it should be true.
Many objects here, whether they are paintings on the walls or some decorations, look extraordinary.
Some things clearly have a strong sense of age.
For example, Lin Mo saw a pair of armor placed in the corridor. It was well made. Although it was very well maintained, the breastplate and faceplate were polished like a mirror, but if you look carefully, you can see many scratches on it.
Some were obviously left behind by swords.
If you get closer, you can smell a subtle smell of blood from this armor, with a hint of curse.
This set of armor obviously has a story.
It may have experienced many things.
Cruel, happy, but no matter what it is, it will be lost in the dust of history. It will continue to exist until it decays. To it, Lin Mo is just a passerby.
The reverse is not the same.
Lin Mo reached out and touched the cold steel armor.
I found that the faint curse on it seemed to resonate with the steel curse in my body.
Kind of like Burning Curse meets Judgment Fire.
The Fire of Judgment contributed to the improvement of the Burning Curse. Could it be that this time, due to bad luck, we encountered another raw material that could improve the Iron Curse?
Lin Mo started looking for this armor without saying anything.
If you can't see anything from the outside, look inside.
The armor was dismantled in a few clicks, and the head, arms, and legs were all separated. Finally, a steel coin was found inside the armor.
There are very complex lines carved on it.
It has a unique mysterious beauty.
A strong curse can be felt from this steel coin.
The moment he held this thing, Lin Mo was affected by the strong curse above and saw such a scene.
A blacksmith used an alien stone to create a coin and presented the coin to the king, but in the end, the kingdom was destroyed.
The king wore steel armor and cursed before his death. He did not allow others to cut off his head to show off, so he cursed himself to become an indestructible body of steel.
So the coin is blessed by this layer of curse.
Anyone who holds this coin in the future will become an iron man.
Become an immortal, indestructible piece of steel.
After that, the coin had several owners without exception, and finally turned into something like an iron sculpture.
Suffering immortal pain but unable to move.
Finally, the coin was sealed into the armor. Only steel in contact with the coin would not be assimilated.
No one dares to touch this cursed object again.
This series of images is like a fast-playing movie, flashing before my eyes.
Obviously, this is the collection of the Howard family, a treasure, and one of the foundations for their ability to become nobles.
But for Lin Mo, this is a good thing.
Others are afraid of being transformed into a body of steel, but he is not afraid.
It is no exaggeration to say that Lin Mo got lucky, because this thing seemed to be tailor-made for him. Others dare not touch it, but he dares.
Without saying anything, Lin Mo took out the yellow paper and placed the coin containing the extremely strong steel curse on the yellow paper.
The next moment, the coin strangely melted into molten iron and stuck into the yellow paper.
The texture of the yellow paper has also changed.
It is much harder, and even has a dark metallic reflection.
Looking at the back of the Iron Curse, there is also a "deepening" mark.
Lin Mo finally understood something at this time.
There are also various curses in the third-level dream, but the level of the curses is obviously stronger than those in the first-level dream.
If you are directly contaminated by the curse of the third-level dream, the consequences will definitely be very tragic.
But if there is a corresponding low-level curse, and you are contaminated with a high-level curse of the same type, you will get an improvement.
Lin Mo discovered this secret and immediately made a plan for himself.
In his words, this is called a comprehensive strength improvement plan.
Upgrade your curse version from 1.0 to 2.0.
In this way, his combat effectiveness will inevitably increase.
Now that the Burning Curse and the Steel Curse have both been upgraded, Lin Mo is naturally more confident.
He began to wander around the manor at a faster pace, looking for other sources of the curse.
But obviously, this person's luck is sometimes good and sometimes bad.
There are times when you are lucky, and times when you are a bit unlucky.
The previous good luck seemed to have run out when the steel coin was found.
It's not that there are no other curse sources in this manor, but many curse sources are not suitable for Lin Mo, that is, Lin Mo did not have a lower version of this curse before.
If you are directly infected with the new high-level curse, the consequences will be disastrous.
Lin Mo could feel it.
Besides, curse itself is a double-edged sword, it needs to be matched and cannot be contaminated randomly.
Indiscriminately contaminating curses will only break the original balance. In the end, all the curses will come back to bite you. That scene is unimaginable.
Of course, it is impossible for the Howard family not to know about Lin Mo's sneaking around.
In fact, he was being watched from the moment he left the room.
But Lin Mo was not afraid.
With the support of "Ben", it won't be a big problem.
Of course, it is also possible that the Howard family does not dare to stop themselves.
It was impossible for them not to know about the high-grade steel curse on the coin. Lin Mo had noticed before that there was a fence around the armor, and a sign was erected that said it must not be touched.
In other words, this is a taboo among the Howard family.
Even just touching the armor may be tainted with a curse.
Then, they would definitely be shocked after seeing themselves touching and even 'swallowing' the source of the curse.
Lin Mo's guess was correct.
At this moment, in the darkness, several members of the Howard family looked at Lin Mo with fear in their eyes.
"What kind of demon is this? It dares to even touch iron armor."
"Not only did he touch it, he also took away the source of the curse."
"what to do?"
"Don't interfere with the other party. This demon can do whatever he wants. The family is in shaky state now. Any attempt is worth it. Besides, the curse is also a burden to the family. This demon can take away the curse, which is a good thing for us.
.And there are still many curses in our family, it would be great if he could take them all away."
