Chapter 363 Lifting the Curse
The moment she adjusted the symbols, the stone platform suddenly vibrated slightly. Then, a warm light emanated from its center, slowly enveloping the missing people. A few seconds later, they slowly opened their eyes, revealing expressions of confusion and fear.
"Who...are you?" asked a missing person.
"We are here to save you." Zhang Wanqing said.
As the missing people regained consciousness, the curse in the basement gradually dissipated. Chen Yifeng's expression gradually returned to calm. He looked at the three people gratefully and said, "Thank you. If it weren't for you, I might never have been able to break free from the curse."
"We are in this together." Li Wei patted his shoulder, "Now, everything is over."
However, just as they were about to leave, Chen Yifeng suddenly stopped and said, "Wait, there's something I haven't told you yet."
"What's the matter?" Fu Siyuan asked.
"That relic is no ordinary ancient site." Chen Yifeng's voice became serious. "It is an ancient sealed place used to imprison those forbidden powers. And I just accidentally touched something I shouldn't have touched."
"Then what should we do now?" Zhang Wanqing asked worriedly.
"We must ensure the safety of that sealed place." Chen Yifeng said, "Otherwise, those forbidden powers will be awakened again."
"Then leave it to us," Li Wei said, "We will guard this place until we find a safer solution."
A few days later, the missing people were safely returned home, and Chen Yifeng gradually recovered with the help of the three. Together they returned to the ancient ruins, resealed the stone tablet, and set up warning signs around it.
"We can't let anyone get close to here again." Fu Siyuan said, "This is our responsibility."
"We are the 'Iron Triangle', and now we have one more guardian." Zhang Wanqing looked at Chen Yifeng with a smile, "We will protect this secret together."
Li Wei said with a firm look: "As long as we are together, there is nothing we can't solve."
They stood in front of the ruins, looking at the city in the distance, their hearts filled with new hope and mission. Although this adventure was full of dangers, they knew that as long as they united as one, nothing could stop them.
In order to ensure that the sealed place will not be awakened again, Zhang Wanqing, Fu Siyuan, Li Wei and Chen Yifeng decided to take a series of measures, combining modern technology and ancient wisdom, to protect this secret.
They decided to build a solid protective wall around the sealed area, similar to the protective measures used in the Demon Locking Tower. This would not only block intrusion but also prevent the leakage of the sealed power. The wall would be constructed from special materials, combining modern technology with ancient runes to enhance its defensive capabilities. They would also place clear warning signs around the sealed area to warn people to stay away. Furthermore, modern surveillance equipment, such as cameras and sensors, would be installed to monitor the sealed area in real time, allowing for rapid response should any anomalies be detected.
Chen Yifeng's research has led to the use of ancient runes and rituals to further strengthen the seal. These runes can be inscribed at the entrance to or around the sealed area, harnessing mystical powers to prevent the awakening of evil. As a former archaeologist, Chen Yifeng possesses the most intimate knowledge of the secrets of the sealed area and will serve as one of its guardians. Regular patrols will also be conducted to ensure proper operation. Chen Yifeng will continue to delve into the secrets of the sealed area, searching for a method to completely lift the curse.
To prevent more curious people from approaching the Sealed Land, they decided to spread false information through the media and online, claiming that the Sealed Land is a dangerous area with unknown natural forces. This would both protect the truth and prevent unnecessary risk. They planned to recruit like-minded individuals to form a team of guardians to jointly protect the Sealed Land. Team members would draw on their respective expertise, such as archaeology, modern technology, and the occult, to jointly respond to potential threats.
After sealing the Sleepers and rescuing the missing, Zhang Wanqing, Fu Siyuan, Li Wei, and Chen Yifeng thought everything was over. However, when they began monitoring the missing, an unexpected reversal occurred - the missing began to experience hallucinations and supernatural phenomena, which made them realize that things were far from over.
The missing were placed in a temporary shelter, cared for by professional psychiatrists and medical staff. Zhang Wanqing and Fu Siyuan documented their recovery, while Li Wei and Chen Yifeng continued their research into the secrets of the Sealed Land. However, a few days later, a sudden burst of terrified screams erupted from the shelter.
"Help! There's something here!" A missing person shouted in horror in the room, clutching his hair tightly with both hands, his eyes empty and terrified.
Zhang Wanqing and Fu Siyuan immediately rushed into the room and saw the missing person running around in the room, as if he had seen something terrible. Fu Siyuan tried to comfort him: "Don't be afraid, we are here, you are safe."
But the missing person was completely oblivious. He pointed to the corner and shouted, "Can't you see? There's a shadow over there! It's staring at me!"
"Calm down!" Zhang Wanqing tried to grab his arm, but he shook her hand away as if he had been electrocuted and continued to scream in horror.
Over the next few days, similar incidents continued to occur. The missing persons began experiencing various hallucinations, some claiming to see eyes floating in the darkness, others hearing whispers. Medical staff and psychologists were puzzled because these symptoms did not conform to common post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
"This isn't normal." Fu Siyuan frowned and flipped through the records. "Their symptoms are more like some kind of supernatural phenomenon."
"Supernatural phenomena?" Li Wei was a little skeptical. "You don't mean that the power of the curse is still affecting them?"
"I don't know either." Fu Siyuan shook his head helplessly, "But these hallucinations are too real. They can even describe the details of the hallucinations."
"Maybe we should go back to the sealed place." Zhang Wanqing suggested, "Maybe there's something there that we haven't discovered yet."
The four decided to go to the sealed place again, hoping to find a way to solve these illusions. When they arrived at the ruins, they found that the runes around the stone tablet seemed brighter than last time, as if warning of something.
"These runes seem to be telling us that the power of the curse hasn't completely disappeared." Chen Yifeng whispered, "Perhaps it's just been suppressed temporarily."
"Then what should we do?" Li Wei asked anxiously.
"We need to find a more powerful sealing method." Chen Yifeng pointed at the runes on the stone tablet and said, "These runes are part of the ancient sacrificial ritual, but their power is no longer enough to completely suppress the curse."
At this moment, the stone tablet suddenly vibrated slightly, and then a powerful force surged from the depths of the stone tablet, tightly surrounding the four people. They felt their bodies bound by an invisible force, unable to move.
"Be careful!" Fu Siyuan shouted, but it was too late. Their vision blurred, and then they found themselves in an unfamiliar place.
