"call out--"
The Book of Flying Thunder Gods is activated.
The next moment, Su appeared in a large, dimly lit circus. From inside, it looked like an indoor circus, and there was no sense of movement, trembling, or bumping.
"This should be inside the circus tent, right?" Su recalled the movie plot, where the circus owner traveled around performing, and the performance venue was a small tent.
Of course, "small" only refers to the appearance and normal state.
Su activated his White Eyes and quickly spotted his first target among the individual cages.
· ····Requesting flowers·· ······
Nagini!
With long, jet-black hair, a slender body, and a tight-fitting black-blue dress, Nagini sat huddled on the ground, her head buried deep between her legs.
Although her face cannot be seen, the strong sense of gloom, numbness, and despair is immediately apparent.
"Hi."
In the dim and silent cage, Nagini was startled when she suddenly heard a sound and instinctively raised her head.
She knew that no one would talk to her at this time, and no one would be walking around.
“Who…who are you?” Nagini saw a stranger, a stranger with black hair like her, who also looked like he came from the East, which surprised her greatly.
Since being captured and forced to perform in this circus, she has hardly seen anyone with an Asian face.
.. .... 0
However, this person's eyes were somewhat unusual; they weren't black pupils, but white ones, and the veins around them were slightly bulging, which was a bit frightening at first glance.
“I heard that you were once trapped in the jungles of Indonesia, carrying a blood curse inherited from your family. Given time, you will never be able to turn back into human form, and will be forever trapped in the body of a snake. You will also have no memory of what happened before and will become a snake completely.”
Su's body suddenly transformed into sheets of paper that flew around, speaking as they flew into the cage and reformed.
Nagini stared in disbelief, even taking a few steps back in fear. This bizarre transformation was something she had never seen before, no… she had never even heard of it before.
This gave her an idea that came to mind subconsciously.
"You...you also have a blood curse?"
Blood Curse?
Does this refer to the transformation of Shikigami no Mai?
Su chuckled and said, "Of course not, this is an ability I have mastered."
Nagini was inexplicably disappointed; she had thought she had met someone who shared her plight.
"Who are you? What do you want?"
"Can you transform and show me?" Su asked, looking at Nagini with great interest.
Nagini remained silent. To her, transformation was the greatest curse of her life. Not only did she face the terrifying and desperate fate of turning into a snake, but she also had to perform these transformations to please her customers and endure the bullying of her boss.
Chapter 266 No one can understand the fear of turning from a human into a snake!
Nagini remained silent without any reaction. Su was slightly taken aback, then realized what was happening and said with a light laugh, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make fun of you or disrespect you. Although I am indeed very interested in your transformation, I hope to discover some problems through your transformation."
"I think you should have noticed that my eyes are quite special."
Su smiled and blinked her eyes.
Nagini hesitated for a moment: "You...can you help me?"
Ms. Su shook her head: "I need to see it before I know."
Nagini hesitated for a moment before slowly getting up. His eyes gradually changed; his irises enlarged, and his white sclera disappeared, making his eyes look like a pair of snake eyes.
Hug yourself with both arms and bend backward.
At the same time, her arms began to transform into snakes, coiling around her upper body.
The left hand transformed into a snake's tail, circled around the back, and returned to the front. The right hand circled behind the body and disappeared from sight.
Then, Nagini's torso passed between his legs.
As her upper body lay on the ground, the snake coiled around her neck began to twist forcefully in a clockwise direction. Her legs rolled down but remained bent, with her knees pointing to the left. Then, her head was lifted up by the snake coiled around her neck and buried in the center of the snake's coils. Subsequently, her lower body was also dragged into the snake's coils.
Finally, when her head emerged, she had completely transformed into a snake, a giant python!
From a purely visual perspective, the transformation process is indeed magical and cool, but under Su's disapproving observation, it seems somewhat like disassembly and reconstruction.
Her human body and snake body are not in the same position at all.
From the snake's tail to its head, the sequence is: left hand, left arm, left half of the torso, left leg, left foot connecting to right foot, then right leg, right half of the torso, right arm, right hand connecting to the neck, and finally to the head.
"Please change back." Susannagini nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
Nagini quickly changed back.
The process of transforming back is much more complicated and tedious than the transformation back. From human body to snake body, she only needs to naturally transform her arms into snake body, find the back of her neck with her right hand, then disassemble her torso and connect her feet. The transformation is almost complete.
But it's different when she turns back. She has to remember which part of the snake body makes up the torso and put it back in its original position before she can turn the torso back.
I don't know if she can distinguish the different parts of her own body well after turning into a snake, but even if she can, it will definitely be more difficult for her to find the snake body corresponding to her torso and put it back in the corresponding position than to find her head with her right hand.
"You... what did you see?" Nagini, who had turned back into a human, looked at Su expectantly.
"Let me think." Su casually patted the ground, and a small earthen wall suddenly rose up.
Su sat down and began to ponder.
He could see the 'blood curse' energy within Nagini's body through his white eyes, but this energy had already merged with her body, becoming one with her flesh and blood. Putting aside everything else, the sealing seal should be useless.
You could try the technique of extracting the small lesions, but I estimate the effect won't be very good, since they've already become incompatible and hard to distinguish.
Simply put, this blood curse can be considered a bloodline limit. Neither the technique of extracting the minor ailment nor the seal of sealing evil can seal or remove the bloodline limit.
Using a red-light fishing rod to fish out her chakra energy would be the simplest and most direct method, but it's hard to guarantee whether it will be completely extracted or restored in one go.
The former would allow her to completely break free of the blood curse, while the latter, though only a temporary solution, would naturally eliminate any worries as long as Nagini remained with her.
The problem is that once Nagini is cured, she will no longer be able to switch between human and snake forms. In that case, she will lose her uniqueness, gain no benefit, and become a babysitter for no reason.
Although there are chakra pills, and it's a simple matter, it's far from Su's goal.
Don't blame Su for being selfish. It's like having a baby with hundreds of millions of dollars in assets. If you could get all those assets just by adopting her, you would definitely be willing, right? But then you find out that you can only get 100,000 dollars, or 1,000 dollars a month. Would you still be willing to take care of her for the rest of your life?
While Su was pondering this, Nagini stood silently and nervously by her side; she was truly fed up with this kind of life.
If she accidentally turns into a snake while she's asleep, and then forgets how to turn back into human form when she wakes up, she'll be stuck as a snake forever, and might even gradually forget her original memories because of the long time she's been in snake form.
No one knows how she's lived these past years, no one can imagine the fear she experiences every night before she sleeps. She knows she might turn into a snake while she sleeps, but she doesn't know if she'll remember how to transform back into human form when she wakes up the next day...
This worry tormented her, keeping her tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
Perhaps one day, when she is finally exhausted from the torment and helplessly drifts into sleep, her arm begins to twitch, and her right hand quietly slips behind her back...
"There are probably... two ways to solve your problem," Su said after a long pause.
Nagini should have been thrilled to hear there was hope, but she was stunned.
Two, two methods?
The blood curse that almost no one could break, the blood curse that made her live in fear and nightmares almost every day, was now being broken by this person in two ways.
"Really? You, you're not lying to me?" Nagini lunged at Su in disbelief and grabbed his hand.
Su pursed her lips: "I really want to lie to you, so that I can at least achieve my goal, but unfortunately I still have my bottom line."
"One of these two methods is that I will extract the blood curse energy from your body. It may be permanent or temporary, but no matter which one, as long as you follow me, I can guarantee that you will no longer be troubled by the blood curse."
“Another method is for me to teach you to cultivate a special power, the power I possess. This power should allow you to freely control the blood curse, so you don’t have to worry about truly turning into a snake that has lost its humanity.”
"You choose."
Sue gave Nagini the choice.
Nagini wasn't stupid; she naturally knew that the other party was willing to help her because she could switch between human and snake forms. Completely getting rid of the blood curse would definitely mean losing the value the other party had in her, but... she really wanted to get rid of this nightmare completely.
What if you lose the value the other person wants? They might abuse you, live a miserable life, or even be killed, but you'll still have to endure it all as a human being, which is much better than not knowing when you might turn into a snake.
If you're not afraid of death, why would you be afraid of a miserable life?
But... if you're not afraid of death or a miserable life, why not take a gamble? If the other party can truly free you from the nightmares caused by the blood curse and stop you from worrying about not being able to turn back when you fall asleep, wouldn't that be even better?
She can break free from her current life, possess her own power, and... guarantee her own value!
Chapter 267 The First Summoning Beast: Zouwu!
As for Nagini, she had no idea how effective the two methods would be.
Literally, one could mean temporarily suspending the blood curse, or even potentially completely lifting it.
The other is to rely on some kind of power cultivated through practice to freely control the power of the blood curse, turning the originally deadly and terrifying blood curse into one's own power and ability.
Nagini's first reaction was to choose the former, but it might only mean she could completely get rid of the blood curse, or it might only be a temporary relief. If it was a temporary relief, then she would have to follow the other party forever. This was not a problem for her, but she was worried that because she had lost her value, the other party would stop helping her.
Therefore, after calming down, Nagini chose the latter without hesitation.
She can not only get rid of the terror of the blood curse, but also turn this curse that has terrified her for many years into her own power, and completely take control of her destiny.
“I want to cultivate the special power you mentioned!” Nagini made his choice in a deep voice.
Su raised an eyebrow slightly, and said with some surprise, "I thought you would choose 14 to let me unleash the power of the Blood Curse."
“It has cursed me and made me live in fear every day. Why can’t I use its power?” Nagini said.
No matter how difficult or dangerous it was, she wanted to 'defeat' the blood curse.
"Put this on, and you're mine from now on." Su threw out a Konoha headband.
Nagini took the headband and examined it curiously for a moment before putting it around her neck.
However, she wore it backwards, with the headband on her neck, facing behind her.
