184 The Arcane
"Split into two teams and advance covertly." Lin Mu stopped and motioned to the soul walkers.
Under Meng Ke's struggle, the 24 soul walkers were evenly divided into two teams, and Lin Mu had a total of 12 soul walkers around him at this time. If this force is placed in an ordinary power war, even if it does not play a decisive role, it must not be ignored. But the current situation is really extraordinary, and there are as many generals as dogs. The main reason is that the forces participating in the war are really too strong, so Lin Mu only dares to approach slowly and low-key now.
The sound of the collision of weapons and the explosion of magic gradually became clear as Lin Mu approached, and he subconsciously accelerated his pace.
Bloody killings, silent runs, desperate resistance. These were intertwined and displayed in front of Lin Mu's eyes.
Can you imagine the scene of tens of thousands of people being chased and scattered in all directions, but no one shouted? It was as if they were just putting on a botched performance according to a predetermined script, if it weren't for that scarlet blood flying in the air. That kind of indifference and indifference in the face of life and death may be understandable when it appears in an individual, but when a group is like this, it is unimaginable to be shocking. What kind of despair and disappointment did it take to have such a group of numb creatures.
At the center of this chaotic scene are several half-elves who are desperately resisting. Despite their frenzied attack on the enemy, they have given up almost all defenses, just trying to hold off a few more so that the civilians can have more chances to escape. But the gap in strength is not something that can be made up for desperately, the opponent's tall body, heavy armor, and spells that are so fast that they can almost be cast at will make the half-elves helpless, and more than a dozen people who can fight with only five people are exhausted.
Lin Mu just glanced at it, and his eyes were red and he entered the battle state. He was all too familiar with these people, the most notorious group of the Thorn Warband, the "Arcanes".
These tall humans dressed in black chain mail wielding chains and shackles are actually spellcasters. It's just that unlike ordinary spellcasters, these strong and non-human fellows can not only cast some sinister spells quickly, but their flesh is also a powerful warrior.
In fact, the "Mystic" was originally some apprentices who were not very talented in magic, and they were originally failures who had no hope of becoming a full-fledged magician in their lives. But one day, Fury Rand appeared in front of these hopeless apprentices and gave them a new choice.
"Join the Thorn Warband and become an arcane spell and you will have a power comparable to that of a full-fledged spellcaster."
You must know that the gap between the official mage and the mage apprentice is unimaginable, the aborigines are not players, there is no so-called upgrade system, whether they can successfully advance in addition to affinity with the talents of various elements must also have excellent opportunities. Therefore, there may only be a 1 in 10,000 chance that an apprentice in the whole continent will advance to formal.
However, because of such harsh conditions, almost every aboriginal spellcaster has almost all the strength that is close to or comparable to the extraordinary when they break through the apprenticeship and become a full-fledged spellcaster. It's not like a player, who obviously has mastered a lot of spells that can only be mastered by formal spellcasters, but his strength is not as good as even a powerful apprentice.
So every Mystic is personally selected by this legend and included in his command. The chosen one must have extreme unwillingness, strong jealousy, and most importantly, a huge "evil" hidden in the depths of the heart!
Only when these conditions are met can Fury Rand's secret method really take effect, and turn these hopeless apprentices upside down.
The future described is wonderful, but the road to the future is bumpy.
The so-called secret method has to go through all kinds of inhuman tortures, from physical to mental, and when the strongest negative emotions burst out, the powder ground from the negative energy derivative Graveyard Moss is engraved on the body of a totem that only Fury Rand knows.
This totem will greatly transform your body, it is a real transformation, both from a physical level and from a spiritual level.
The apprentices' emaciated bodies, which had been emaciated by staying at home for long periods of time studying magic or working as laboratory assistants for their instructors, would rapidly swell up in just a few days, and their bones would grow again. Such a drastic change is naturally accompanied by intense pain. In the past few days, the recipient can experience the continuous tearing and re-healing of muscles, and the automatic repair of broken bones, which is comparable to the process of torture.
After this series of operations, there is no one in ten apprentices who can survive, and even if they survive, it is impossible to be mentally normal. In addition, when choosing, those who had "evil" in their hearts were deliberately selected, and these people who turned into "arcane magicians" can be said to be all crazy people who are full of destructive thoughts and destructive desires.
After they put on the all-black chain mail and picked up the flail of the multi-headed chain ball, they were no longer intelligent beings who could communicate. Even their creator, Fury Rand, is often furious with these unpredictable madmen, because if they are sent out, no matter how they are arranged in advance, they may end up with a mess of unspeakable rotten meat or undetermined prototype fragments, including teammates who assist them...
Therefore, this powerful but almost uncontrollable force, even the internal squads of the Thorn War Group did not dare to cooperate.
If it weren't for the fact that the Soul House's secret realm was so famous, searching for a movable secret realm entrance in such a large area would definitely require a large group of spellcasters to work together. However, the scarcity of spellcasters is also inevitable in the Thorn Warband, and Fury Rand can only send out the "Arcane" troops, after all, he does not want to end up with a ruined wasteland, which is the name given to the secret realm that has been severely damaged or gathered in transition.
In fact, he thought too much, any demigod in the spirit world could eat these mystics as a snack, even if all the mystics went in.
So Lin Mu's guess was right, these guys who were crazy about slaughtering civilians were really lured over by them. And by chance, he ran into a half-elf civilian fleeing to the border.
"Kill !!" Lin Mu roared angrily and rushed out first. If the other Thorn Warband squads might still need to communicate or arrest and interrogate, as for these madmen, he only had the idea of tearing them to pieces!
