Chapter 897 Curse and Prophecy

"Disclaimer."

"How can you still not know how old I am, you old guy!" Salomon glared at the bar owner and snapped his fingers at the tray with four glasses of wine. "If I guess correctly, this thing comes from a friend who is not a friend." Before returning to his seat, Salomon signaled the boss to look at the shotgun hanging on the wall behind the bar. The shotgun was covered with gothic twisted patterns and skull decorations, and the handle was wrapped in iron chains. The entire gun seemed to have just been taken out of the furnace and emitted terrible heat. The secret mage asked casually, "Do you know him?"

"The Ghost Rider asked someone to send this thing." The bar owner said without raising his head, "It is said that he is doing well now."

"I don't think so." Salomon shook his head.

As far as he knows, the bearer of the Ghost Rider, Johnny Blaze, has successively found several jobs for stunt motorcycle riders, but it is not very stable. The frequent unemployment caused him to rely on his reporter's girlfriend to support him. Although Kama Taj also gave him a subsidy, Johnny Blaze's self-esteem always made him refuse the assistance of Kama Taj and his girlfriend, and ran to unknown places to work and earn extra money. It is said that he was stopped by the police for speeding and driving without a license. In the end, the local Kama Taj secret mage bailed him out. The secret mage shook his head and did not think about anything irrelevant, turned to greet the invisible servant and walked towards the seat with a pallet. The brothers Wanda and Dram were already waiting there.

"Beer, beer, tequila, martini." Salomon sat down next to Wanda and met with the two brothers Drum. The reason why the two agreed to fly from South America to New York to meet Salomon was not because of Kama Taj's appeal or the relationship between Daniel's mage, but because they thought Kama Taj might have what they needed. They wanted to trade a deal - maybe a book, maybe a magic weapon. The Drum brothers had no idea what it was, but they still insisted that Kama Taj had that thing. They widened their eyes and looked at Salomon shaping the etheric spirits to serve themselves, and they further confirmed their ideas.

"This is related to a prophecy." The older Drum was named Daniel Drum, who had the same name as the Daniel Mage of Kamataj. "Only, curse. This is quite famous in the magic world and a bit old-fashioned." He laughed dryly, only Wanda listened to the story with interest. However, to her disappointment, the story was not long and quite boring. "There was a witch who was hostile to the Drum family. There was only one person in each generation of the Drum family. This curse has been circulating in the blood of the Drum family for two hundred years."

"You want to lift the curse?" Salomon nodded, "Yes, but there is no guarantee that it will succeed."

He is not a hero with a brain-abstracted brain. He asks others to unconditionally execute orders they do not understand. He doesn't mind listening to other people's ideas and accepting the conditions given by others. Even if he doesn't accept it, he still has the money to buy someone with a glass of wine. The Drum brothers obviously did not expect Salomon to be so easy to talk to - in the mouths of their distant relatives, Salomon is the heir to the Supreme Mage, and his status is much higher than that of other spellcasters like them.

In the magic world, a world with distinct class characteristics, knowledge is power. Kama Taj and the Supreme Mage have supreme and unshakable status. It is because of the strongest knowledge that the old guy Daniel first entered Kama Taj to study in order to find a way to relieve the curse. However, over the years, the old guy Daniel has gained nothing, so he believes that Salomon may know some knowledge that only the Supreme Mage can know, and that those knowledge can relieve the curse that has troubled the Dram family for hundreds of years.

"I need to conduct an experimental analysis." Salomon signaled the two brothers of Drum to stretch out their arms, and he took out two blood bottles and needles. The Drum brothers did it nervously. After all, giving blood, hair and nails is something that needs trust in the magic world, but the Drum family is desperate. If they want to lift the curse, they have to cooperate with Salomon's actions. Now the two brothers can only pray to their ancestors that Salomon and Kama Taj are trustworthy.

After the brief meeting, Salomon booked a hotel room for the Drum brothers and asked them to wait for news there.

"Can you really lift their curse?" Wanda Maximov asked in a low voice, "I think they must not tell the truth. No witch would curse people in boredom. This kind of thing sounds like it is told in fairy tales. Have you ever heard of the story of Babayaga? I think it will definitely be no good if you lift the curse rashly."

In legendary stories, if the husband beats his wife for no reason, he will be cursed by Baba Yaga. The person who casts the curse to release must be at the cost of his life to release the curse, and the soul will also become a slave to Baba Yaga. Since ancient times, the legends about curse have been mixed with truth and falsehood, but it is certain that a curse passed down through the bloodline must be quite powerful, and the stronger the curse must be lifted, the higher the price it will pay.

According to Salomon, whenever one of the twins of the Dram family dies from a life, the soul power of the dead will be reborn and make it stronger. He even suspected that this curse was performed by the ancestors of the Dram family themselves, in order to allow this originally unremarkable family to accumulate strength and become stronger through blood inheritance. This kind of thing has not happened. In many schools that inherit family, family affection is a non-existent concept. The ultimate mystery is much more important than blood inheritance. Salomon can give examples of several cases of exploring the ultimate truth by possessing people. If the ancestors of the Dram family intend to sacrifice for future generations, then he would not be surprised at all.

"Of course I know, Wanda, but I didn't promise to lift the curse." Salomon put the blood bottle into his waist bag, threw the lemon and salt into his mouth, and took the tequila and drank it all. "If the price of solving this matter far exceeds the price of solving the Feathered Snake God, I wouldn't be kind enough to help." He said, "It's not only them who can find the clues to find Feathered Snake God. I'm not stupid enough to do a loss-making business."

After Salomon returned to the temple, the old man, Mage Daniel, hurriedly came up to ask for details, but Ms. Disaster was wearing an outrageously stupid mask of convex eyes to prevent him from moving forward further. This crazy woman had a lot of autonomy as long as she did not touch the books and magical instruments in the temple. The reason was that this woman's prophethood always brought unexpected surprises to Kama Taj.

"You won't succeed, old guy. Your brother is still crying on you!" She suddenly turned around, frightening Wanda Maximov. Ms. Calamity pointed to the crude mask she made, and her orange-red convex eyes became a little scary in her tone. She said in a muffled voice, "I saw you insert the priest knife into a woman's chest and take out her heart. This is the only way to kill the snake, Salomon, you have to make a decision."
