My Attractiveness Only Affects Divine Beasts - Chapter 81
Chapter 81: Entering the Trial Field!
Hearing Mike’s question, Cartier was stunned and did not speak for a long time.
“Sorry, I was rude. This should be a secret of your elven race. I shouldn’t have asked this question,” Mike said immediately when he saw that Cartier was silent for a long time.
In his opinion, this curse was not honorable. Moreover, the curse must have been caused by humans, so naturally, that must be why he did not want to tell him more.
“Benefactor, it’s not like that.” Cartier shook his head, before giving a self-deprecating laugh. “This is not a secret. It’s just retribution that our elven race should have.”
“Retribution?” Mike was a little surprised.
Cartier slowly closed his eyes, his tone was heavy as he said, “The curse was once caused by the ancient divine beast, the Wind and Thunder Battle Eagle. Billions of years ago, the powerful Wind and Thunder Battle Eagle had appeared on the Magic Continent. In order to protect its descendants in this world where Fierce Beasts ran rampant, it fought against the various Ancient Divine Beasts on the magic continent. In their battle, countless creatures were affected, and for a time, the low-level creatures of other planes suffered considerably.
Seeing that all the races on the continent were in dire straits, the Wind and Thunder Battle Eagle announced to the other ancient beasts that it would protect the other low-level creatures. It would allow more races to develop harmoniously. If not, the entire continent would be wiped out by them, and the elf race would be protected by the Wind and Thunder Battle Eagle. The elf race would be protected like never before.
At the same time, the elves were also strengthened like never before. While the elves were strengthened, they would also provide treatment to the injured Wind and Thunder Battle Eagle.
However, in the final battle, the Wind and Thunder Battle Eagle was seriously injured and on the verge of death. Although it continued to provide help, the former Elder of the elf clan did not provide it with treatment. Instead, he killed it at a critical moment.
“At the last moment of the Wind and Thunder Battle Eagle’s death, he used his soul as the price and forever cursed the elves to become the lowest gnomes. Unless…”
“Unless what?” Mike quickly asked. Obviously, he was fascinated by this story.
“Unless someone can pass the Wind and Thunder Battle Eagle’s test, the Sea of Thunder and Fire!”
Sea of Thunder and Fire?
Hearing this name, Mike’s expression turned serious. “In other words, this is the Thunderstorm Eagle’s test field? Or the Thunder Flame Sea?”
“That’s right. The Thunder Flame Sea is the punishment given by the Thunderstorm Eagle. After all, the elves had committed a heinous crime. Not only that, the elves behind us have completely turned into gnomes, and we have been stripped of our original strength, leaving only our talents. I didn’t expect that we, with our useless talents, would be targeted by other outlaws. Maybe this was also a punishment.”
These things were originally a secret that could not be spoken off to other races, much less to humans.
But now, in such a miserable state, the so-called bloodline and the so-called race secret had become a joke.
Perhaps the greatest desire of their whole race was to transform from the gnome bloodline back to the elf bloodline.
Mike turned around and looked at the blue sealing formation at the end of the tunnel. He said, “Behind that sealing formation is the trial ground left behind by the Wind and Thunder Trial Field?”
“That’s right.” Cartier nodded slowly and said, “That seal has always existed. Only the elf and gnome bloodlines can be unsealed. The purpose is to let others open it and enter.”
After hearing that, Mike suddenly thought, “Then, can you help me break that seal?”
“So, you want to?” Cartier looked over.
“That’s right!” Mike nodded. “I want to pass this trial. Now that I have this opportunity, of course, I want to try.”
Cartier didn’t refuse yet. Instead, he chose to ask, “Benefactor, are you really confident? Aren’t you still injured?”
“It’s fine. Even if I can’t pass, I will come out as soon as possible.”
Just as Mike finished speaking, Cartier’s expression became serious. “No, it’s not that I don’t want to open the seal, but the assessment inside is extremely strict and the elemental energy inside is extremely violent. After so many years, even the elves who are closest to the elements can’t guarantee that they won’t be injured by the violent lightning energy inside.
“Moreover, after so many years, there have been many people who mistakenly entered the sealed area. Even though they were so strong, after entering, their entire bodies disappeared. There has simply been no one who could pass this trial till now. If you rashly enter, then your life will be in danger!”
Cartier tried his best to stop him, but it did not cause Mike to feel conflicted. Instead, he said in an extremely serious tone, “I know my own strength. Although I’m injured, I believe that I have the ability to overcome this crisis.”
After saying that, Mike raised his right arm, and a large flame appeared on his right hand.
Looking carefully, there were traces of lightning inside the flame, and even the sound of thunder could be heard.
The ability to create this phenomenon was Elemental Affinity. This ability was not only powerful, but it could also be used to get along with other unusual elements.
This area was filled with abundant lightning elements. In this area with abundant elements, Mike could naturally simulate the state of lightning through this ability.
“You… Your fire element magic actually contains lightning elements?” Cartier’s expression was filled with surprise.
Although the other party had once again mistaken the gathering of elements as magic power, he felt that this kind of magic was very powerful and explosive!
However, all of this didn’t matter. As long as the other party could let him into the trial field, it would be fine.
After all, his teachers and classmates still needed his and others’ help.
Mike turned his gaze to Lilian.
He found that with the help of herbs and spiritual power, her injuries were gradually recovering. It seemed that there was still a chance for her to recover.
It was even more impossible for her not to try to participate in this assessment.
Thinking of this, Mike spoke again. “I understand that this operation is very difficult. It will definitely focus on the lightning element trial. However, I still have some understanding of the elements. I think that I still have some confidence in facing the trial inside. Maybe I will still have a chance to pass this competition.”
After saying that, Mike looked outside again and continued, “Regardless of whether I can succeed or not, this is the only chance anyway. Otherwise, there will be no way for those people outside to leave. If I obtain anything inside that can resolve this situation, it will more or less help the enemies outside.”
Hearing this, Cartier did not say anything more.
After thinking for a while, he finally opened his mouth and said, “Alright, but I still hope that you can come to your senses. After I open the trial field, if you can’t bear it inside, you can use this thing to communicate with me. I will use all my strength to open the seal and give you a chance to break out of the crisis.” After saying that, Cartier handed one of the stones to Mike. At the same time, there was another stone in his hand.
Both stones looked simple, but also had a bit of an old feeling.
Mike took the two stones and nodded at the same time. Then, Mike said to Phyllis not far away, “Please take care of Lilian.”
“Yes!” Phyllis nodded firmly.
“Are you ready?” Cartier asked as he stood in front of the sealing formation.
“I’m ready. Thank you for your help, Village Chief,” Mike nodded and said.
Cartier nodded slowly and reminded him again, “If you find anything wrong, send me a message immediately. Don’t try to be brave.”
After saying that, Cartier’s hands transformed into various shapes. Then, he dripped the remaining elf blood on the seal.
Instantly, the light on the seal formation flashed, but it started to spin continuously.
After that, a mysterious and strange entrance appeared at the seal formation. The entrance was pitch black, and the surrounding light kept being sucked in like a terrifying bottomless abyss.
Seeing this, Mike nodded. After taking one last look at Lilian, he stepped into the entrance of the trial ground without hesitation.
When he took that step into the training ground, the scene around Mike immediately distorted. Then, the sky and earth started to spin, and Mike’s body seemed to fly upwards.
Subconsciously, he closed his eyes, and a feeling of weightlessness came from all directions.
After more than ten seconds, he slowly opened his eyes.
However, everything in front of him made him feel surprised.
