Chapter 34: Stop Moving forward

Li Tianxiang raised his eyebrows and waited for Sal to reveal the answer.

“The voice said that we can explore the area ahead of us in the future.”

Li Tianxiang was slightly stunned. He felt like he had seen this line before in a game.

However, this farming game had become a game of death. He was no longer as carefree as before.

“What kind of emotions accompanied this sentence? Was it anger? Were they joking around? Or were they indifferent?”

After seeing the strange weather vane, Li Tianxiang began to doubt everything about the farming system.

From the tone of the announcement, he could at least deduce the system’s attitude towards the creatures in the fog and his farm.

Siebel was stunned as she didn’t expect Li Tianxiang to ask about the tone. She frowned and said helplessly.

“Sal only said that and didn’t mention anything about the tone. If you want to know, you can only ask him to come and tell you personally.”

“Oh?”

Li Tianxiang noticed the blind spot in Siebel’s words.

“Is Sal already awake?”

It must be known that when he first came back, Sal was unconscious and even looked as if he was on the verge of death.

“You underestimate the regeneration abilities of the orcs.”

Siebel rolled her eyes at Li Tianxiang, but the system kept warning him that he had been bewitched. Upon seeing Siebel’s expression, Li Tianxiang’s lips twitched, and he asked the question he had always wanted to ask.

“Is your charming skill a passive skill?”

Siebel was stunned for a moment before she lowered her head. Her face was gloomy and her tone was low.

“It originally wasn’t, but…”

She touched her lower abdomen with her finger. Li Tianxiang’s gaze followed her movements and saw that the pink mark he had previously seen was actually glowing faintly through her clothes.

Li Tianxiang looked at the color and shape of the mark and thought of some strange things.

Then, Li Tianxiang forcefully suppressed the messy thoughts in his mind and coughed dryly. He looked away and asked nonchalantly.

“Is it related to this mark?”

Siebel saw Li Tianxiang’s actions from the corner of her eye and her lips curled into a warm smile. She had seen that hungry gaze many times.

Although Li Tianxiang’s strange gaze just now could not be said to be numb, at the very least, he didn’t show much emotion. She found it very interesting when Li Tianxiang turned his head away.

Hence, she placed both her hands on the edge of Li Tianxiang’s bed and leaned towards him. Li Tianxiang could even smell the sweet scent from her body.

He felt his face heat up, and beads of sweat even appeared on his forehead. To his surprise, Siebel did not let him go. Instead, she moved a little closer to him, and then…

There was a crisp crackling sound.

Then, Li Tianxiang’s hair had exploded, and there was even the fragrance of roasted meat coming from his body.

[Warning: An advanced charm skill has been detected. Physical purification method will be used.]

Tch. Li Tianxiang silently pointed his middle finger at the system. Couldn’t the system inform him before he was electrocuted, instead of relying on the benefit of hindsight?!

Siebel finally let Li Tianxiang go when she saw his sorry state. Then, she smiled and spoke.

“Indeed, this mark will restrict the level of the magic I use. Simply put, I can only use elementary-leveled magic. However, since my charm is a racial skill, it is not restricted by this mark. Thus, it became a passive skill. However, since humans like this style of control, this curse will be put on almost all the succubi that have been captured to prevent them from escaping.”

Siebel spoke calmly, as if she was talking about other races.

Even though Li Tianxiang hated her for causing him to be electrocuted, as a young man who grew up in a modern society, he naturally sympathized with her experience.

After a long time, he asked.

“Can this spell be lifted?”

As a succubus, Siebel was very good at controlling people’s hearts. She could easily hear the sincerity in Li Tianxiang’s words.

She was slightly surprised, but there was a hint of warmth in her words that even she could not detect.

“Of course, but there are only two methods. The first method is to find the God or Great Demon who manages this contract. After all, to obtain this curse, the caster would have sacrificed something in exchange for the power of imprisonment. Therefore, the curse can be used to imprison many creatures far above their strength.”

After hearing these words, a difficult expression appeared on Li Tianxiang’s face.

He was just a farmer. Even if he had learned some skills, if he wanted to discuss lifting the curse with a God or a Great Devil… it didn’t seem impossible.

A thoughtful expression appeared on Li Tianxiang’s face. He thought of the trading function of the Heavenly Market System. Could he use this to sign a contract with those Gods or Great Demons to achieve his goal?

However, it was a little too far to think about this now, so he asked curiously.

“Then what’s the second method?”

“The curse will be lifted if the caster dies.”

Li Tianxiang was stunned for a moment before he understood why Siebel was not in a hurry despite being affected by the curse.

After all, according to his understanding of that world, the lifespan of a succubus was too long compared to a human Warlock. Furthermore, Warlocks often used all kinds of spells at the cost of their lifespan.

In other words, she only needed to wait for a short period of time before the curse would be naturally lifted. Hence, she was unwilling to pay a painful price to lift the curse.

However, Li Tianxiang raised his eyebrows.

“For a true noble or a wealthy person, it shouldn’t be too difficult to get a new Warlock to cast another curse.”

Siebel gave Li Tianxiang a meaningful look.

“Then, will you do that?”

Li Tianxiang shook his head like a rattle-drum. It wasn’t because he had tender feelings for the fairer sex. Instead, it was because he felt that this curse wasted the power of a succubus.

It had to be known that succubi were natural masters of magic, especially when it came to life magic. Many Mages who had trained for many years were inferior to them.

This curse simply restricted the possibility of them using high-level magic. Think about it, even if they simply using magic to increase the amount of light and irrigation, what kind of benefits could Li Tianxiang obtain?

Siebel paused slightly. She had expected Li Tianxiang to at least hesitate.

After all, once the curse was lifted, the first thing she wanted to do was probably to suck his life force dry. However, she did not expect him to not care at all.

She firmly rejected the idea of restricting her again without even a pause.

Of course, what she didn’t know was that Li Tianxiang had weighed the risks and benefits. Furthermore, he really felt that he hadn’t offended her.

Thus, when he compared the possibility of being killed and the inevitable increase in farm yields, it was simply worth it. Naturally, he wouldn’t do such a stupid thing..
