This kind of creature was just like his bone horse, both belonging to dark creatures.
Hard to deal with.
"Kid, this one is actually an E+ level tyrant. It can summon three types of servants at the same time, it's too dangerous," Nostradamus transmitted his voice to Ethan, "Your trial ends here today. Come down to my tree, I'll clear the rest of the monsters for you."
"No need, I've already thought of a way."
However, what Nostradamus didn't expect was that Ethan directly rejected his proposal.
The sudden refusal made Nostradamus somewhat surprised, "This is an E+ level monster, and although each of its three types of servants isn't that strong individually, their group level is still F rank. Don't push yourself!"
"I'm not pushing myself, I really do have a way," Ethan replied through voice transmission, "You just stay up there and watch."
"Don't be stubborn, this thing is very dangerous!"
Nostradamus was quite dissatisfied with Ethan's attitude. It made him, as a teacher, lose face.
He had already lowered himself to ask his own disciple to come over, and yet the kid didn't even want his help.
What kind of situation was this.
Ethan emphasized again, "Please rest assured! I really don't need your help."
"Hmph! Like you said, I don't believe you for a second," Nostradamus still refused to accept it, "But…"
"But what?"
Ethan raised an eyebrow, sensing something behind his words.
"But as your master, I naturally want the best for my disciple," Nostradamus said with a smile, "So if you can get out of this situation on your own, when we get back, I'll find a way to boost all your citizens' attack and defense. How about that?"
"You said it!", Ethan's eyes lit up at the chance for a free gain, "Master, then it's a deal."
"Mm," Nostradamus responded, "Go all out. I'll still be watching from above. If you're really in danger, I'll step in."
"Alright, thanks, Master."
Getting a safety net for free naturally made Ethan pleased.
After all, protection from a archmage was far more reliable than his once-a-day protective necklace.
Crack! Crack!
The carrion moles had already discovered his presence, so they quickly dug into the roots of the tree Ethan was hiding in. The already withered tree began to sway as if it might collapse at any moment.
And the sound of the shaking tree also attracted the attention of the corpse wolves.
Countless corpse wolves were rushing toward Ethan's direction. Below him were carrion moles, and not far away were fast-moving corpse wolves. If Ethan fell from the tree right now, he didn't even need to imagine to know how miserable the outcome would be.
But at such a critical moment, Ethan calmly took out a small coffin from his tail ring.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
"Ethan, you're going to die a horrible death!"
"As soon as I get out of this coffin, it'll be the day of your sacrifice!"
As the saying goes, only magic can defeat magic.
So only darkness can defeat darkness. Anyone trying to defeat darkness with light is either truly powerful, or just hopelessly straightforward.
In Ethan's view, since he could fight dirty, why bother playing fair?
Right now, to deal with these monsters on the ground that couldn't be killed by normal means, this cute little cursed doll was the perfect tool.
"Little darling, don't be in such a rush."
Ethan grinned like a shady uncle trying to lure a girl into scooping goldfish. He took out an obedience talisman from his tail ring, then slowly opened the small coffin, "Uncle's about to let you out. But can you not be so violent? Otherwise, uncle won't let you out to play."
"Fack your mother, Ethan!"
The cursed doll immediately cursed loudly upon hearing his voice, "Let me out! Let me out and I'll kill you right away, kill your whole family!"
Scritch~
Ethan slid the coffin lid open a little more.
The cursed doll lying inside immediately opened its glass bead-like eyes, glaring viciously at Ethan. It looked like the moment the lid opened just a bit more, it would jump out and kill Ethan, wipe out his entire family.
But right at that moment, in the cursed doll's wide eyes, a yellow talisman rapidly grew larger in its vision, until it was slapped directly onto its forehead.
In an instant, its eyes widened. Even though it wanted to rush forward and kill Ethan a hundred times, its body was once again taken over by Ethan's obedience talisman.
"You bastard, let me go! If you've got guts, let me go!"
"Let's fight for three hundred rounds!"
Only after placing the talisman did Ethan finally feel at ease and fully open the coffin lid.
Then he released the cursed doll and ordered, "Girl, come on! Give me a fancy dive."
"I'll dive your mother! I'll go dance on your grave!"
While cursing at Ethan nonstop, the cursed doll slowly walked to the edge of the tree trunk, then leapt down.
Even though it didn't want to, the power of the obedience talisman was immense.
Whether it liked it or not, it had to obey.
At that moment, it felt utterly humiliated, 'Why do I have to listen to this scum and perform some fancy dive? Fancy my ass!'
"Ethan you… bas… tard…!"
Because of the dive, even its voice stretched out into a long, drawn-out echo in Ethan's mind.
But the moment it fell, as expected, the corpse wolves and carrion moles all thought Ethan had fallen. They quickly gathered around the cursed doll.
Moreover, since the cursed doll itself was a creature of the dark world, surrounded by a layer of dark aura, the corpse wolves even mistook it for some kind of delicious food.
Some of them even leapt high into the air, pouncing toward the cursed doll and biting down.
Unfortunately, before the corpse wolf could even land, the moment it made contact with the cursed doll, it was already cursed to death.
Its lifeless body slammed heavily onto the ground.
And as it fell, it crushed into the densely packed corpse wolves and a few carrion moles below. The creatures it pressed down were almost all instantly frozen stiff.
This was the power of the cursed doll, touch it, and you die.
In that instant, standing on the tree, Ethan saw large patches of corpse wolves and carrion moles below suddenly stiffen and collapse straight to the ground.
And the surrounding "onlookers" (corpse wolves), not understanding what had happened, came over to sniff and check.
But the moment their noses touched the corpses, they were immediately affected by the curse and died as well.
And just like that, one after another, in a flash, a whole large group died.
