Life Curse
As the new leader of the Morningstar Dragon, Huang Zhaozhong understood that it was essential to keep the people's hearts stable in order to achieve victory. The previous leader had been blinded by successive successes, which led to the Starshine World Council launching a sneak attack, finding their stronghold, and killing most of their core members.
"Leader, why don't we just gather the believers?" A young member, his eyes flashing with blue light, looked somewhat bewildered. In his bewilderment, he was summoned into the Morningstar Dragon. In his bewilderment, because of his rare and powerful bloodline, he was chosen as the high priest. In his bewilderment, he was almost wiped out. Now he was bewildered and somewhat afraid.
His younger brother is in a similar situation. Due to genetic factors, or bloodline influence, his intelligence has been somewhat affected. To this day, he remains in a state of confusion, wondering, "Who am I? Where am I? Who is hitting me? What should I do?"
"No, this is just courting death!" Huang Zhaozhong said solemnly. "Although many brothers and sisters have been awakened, they are too scattered and difficult to integrate. Our current advantage is that we are in the shadows. As long as we are not found, the more Father God components we summon over time, the greater our advantage will be."
"Then why don't we revive the Father God first?" another member asked cautiously, carrying the bronze box on his back.
"That won't work either. The resurrection of the Father God is too commotion. The Father God, with only a dozen or so parts, can hardly withstand those insidious villains from the Starshine World Council. We must stabilize the situation and summon more parts."
Huang Zhaozhong described a bright future. "At that time, the Father God in his prime will be resurrected, and a large number of brothers and sisters will stand up together. Only in this way can we overthrow the cruel rule of the Starshine World and restore our status as noble Dragon Children!"
"We understand!!" the many Dragon Children exclaimed excitedly.
"Now, before those despicable bastards catch up, let's summon again and then immediately relocate!" Huang Zhaozhong had clearly hypnotized himself, firmly believing in his superior status as a Dragon Children. As long as things continued this way, the advantage was indeed significant.
Dozens of members of the Morningstar Dragon set down the bronze chests on their backs, each slit their wrists, releasing their blue blood to begin the summoning ritual. There were more than ten parts here, and with the help of the Dragon Children's blood, the summoning was indeed not difficult.
Before long, a wriggling blue tumor was summoned. A Dragon Children with spatial abilities quickly took out a bronze box and put the blue tumor inside. These tumors seemed to have intelligence; they would only respond to the summons if they sensed safety. Otherwise, they would release a spatial interference field as soon as they detected danger, causing the previous spatial banishment attempts to fail.
"Hurry up and leave." Without time to pray, Huang Zhaozhong hurriedly ordered all members to leave, while taking out a black box and placing it on the spot.
Shortly afterward, the box was remotely detonated, destroying all traces of the retreat and releasing some powder that emitted a pungent odor, further damaging the surrounding environment to prevent Starshine World Council pursuing them through physical means.
Afterwards, several figures flew over from a distance and arrived at the scene. They used all sorts of methods, but they could no longer find any trace of the members of the Morningstar Dragon.
A man angrily pounded the ground. It was a superhero from the Light of Bloodline. Several heroes in his organization had been transplanted with the Mad Star Dragon gene and betrayed the organization after being inspired. One of them was his good buddy... brother. How could he not be angry?
"Damn it! Who the hell is funding them!" The Morningstar Dragon are slippery, but they're no match for the entire Starshine World Council. However, every time they try to find those guys, someone always interferes. Otherwise, they would have caught them long ago.
Moreover, these followers of the Mad Star Dragon have become increasingly adept at escaping after being captured several times, and they possess various instruments funded by unknown individuals, making them increasingly difficult to track. In addition, their innate special abilities, such as prophecy, grant them immunity, making them a headache to think about.
"Disperse the pursuit, have people surround this area, and conduct a sweeping search. Everyone should carry a signal device, communication powder, and information factor, and be cursed with Life Curse. I refuse to believe we won't find those rats." Qi Duo from the People's Association's scars twitched, clearly furious as well.
"The Life Curse is inhumane, I disagree!" Dobekla said with a frown, immediately and firmly opposing it. Although he was also very agitated, he absolutely did not want the Life Curse to be activated.
The so-called Life Curse is when a curse is planted on a living being. If someone kills the cursed person, the life force of the cursed person will infect the killer's entire body, becoming a mark that can never be removed.
The Dragon Children are not Mad Star Dragon after all. Although they also have immunity, they are indeed weaker than Mad Star Dragon. The mark of the Life Curse may be much less effective, but at least it will leave a trace.
Dobekla opposed this because those afflicted with the Life Curse, whether killed or not, would be tormented for life. They would lose the ability to commit suicide, and would be unable to kill other cursed individuals. They could only try their best to find a target and beg that target to kill them. This was to activate the cursed individual's full will, to use it to find people, and to use it to seek death.
In reality, the Life Curse is used as a form of vigilante justice in many places. The cursed person can only beg others to kill them, otherwise they cannot commit suicide in any way. This vigilante justice involves locking the cursed person up alone, which is even more painful than death.
A sweeping search of an area would naturally require more than just a few dozen or a hundred people. For this one area alone, at least several thousand people would be needed. So, once it's confirmed that the Life Curse has been used, it's like sentencing several thousand people to death.
"That's the Mad Star Dragon, the Mad Star Dragon that caused the deaths of hundreds of millions of people!" The Archbishop of the Holy Radiance Society was filled with sorrow, tears streaming down his aged face. He sighed, "We must make choices, my child."
"Life should never be measured by quantity! If it is, we will not deserve to be called heroes!" Dobekla roared angrily. He could understand these people's thoughts, but he could not agree with them, "I will find them before you make mistakes!"
After saying this, Dobekla flew into the sky, the terrifying shockwaves and sounds indicating just how fast he was flying. He frantically searched for those damned Dragon Children, then knelt before thousands of people and wailed.
Superheroes are human too, and beliefs cannot determine everything. In the end, Dobekla could not stop it all. Thousands of people were cursed with Life Curse and began a frenzied search for someone in the area who could kill them.
Afterwards, thousands of people begged to be killed so they could be executed. This event, known in later history as the Elegy of Life, also created the most insane villain in the Starshine World, a "survivor" tormented by the Life Curse for over a hundred years.
