Chapter 123: Panic
Activated by Cheese, the spell released by the Raven as an external guide is released with the mage's voice. Only this time, Cheese's spell was not as "obvious" as before, there were no vines growing from the ground, no dazzling white light, not even a breath that could be detected by ordinary people, and the release of the magic was like a strange drama performed by Cheese and the Curse Crow, and when the spell was released, there was nothing to prove that the spell had been completed.
However, just when everyone was wondering if Cheese had made a mistake, they all realized that the mage's spell had really been done. Almost instantly, all the information about the rats that everyone present could see, hear, and feel disappeared. Mona and Elsa looked away from their shields, and they noticed that not only were there no more rats flying down from the trees, but even the rats on the ground had disappeared without a trace. Jack and Sander were not much better than the previous two, and the wolfwalkers and vampires were still subconsciously knocking down the things on their bodies with their hands, but suddenly realized that the small animals that were lying on their bodies and biting their bodies were all gone, leaving only rat-like wounds to remind them that they were not dreaming just now. The wolf stopped rolling, and she could make sure there was nothing else on her.
"To be honest, every time I see your spells, I feel terrified. What you have at your disposal is far more terrible than any curse in the world. Raven said with a pale face, he had to hold his hands on his knees and start panting after helping Cheese complete the spell channel, even though the ring on his hand could give him far more physical strength than his body itself, but it was obviously not enough to cover the energy he had just expended.
"I was forced to use this spell, and you know, the cost of using this power is not something that can be solved by reducing my lifespan by a few years. Cheese said, but despite what he said, the mage's complexion didn't seem to change at all, as if the spell just now didn't make him consume much energy.
"You...... What did you do?" the lich's voice came from the graveyard, asking the question that everyone present wanted to ask Cheese except for the Cursed Crow. While the existence of magic meant breaking common sense and the unthinkable, what Cheese had just done was clearly more terrifying than anyone could have thought of magic. Although the lich's voice could not be heard to fluctuate, the slightly trembling voice made everyone feel the lich's fear of cheese, and the previous calmness was vanished under the spell of cheese.
"It's just getting the tricky little ones away. Rest assured, you'll soon know what they've been through. Cheese replied, looking at his posture, the mage was ready to do the spell again, and this time the target was undoubtedly the lich in the graveyard.
"Impossible, how can you fire this spell in bursts!" the lich's voice was more like an exclamation than a question. And the reason why it is so frightened is not without reason, as mentioned before, the battle between spellcasters largely depends on the mutual analysis of spells, whether they can be interrupted when the other party has not finished casting, whether they can cancel out or complete the defense before the spell takes effect, this is the focus of the contest between spellcasters, any spell, in the eyes of trained spellcasters, there are traces to follow, the difference is only the complexity of the spell.
However, the lich in the cemetery was completely unable to understand what the spell released by Cheese was, and although he saw the whole process of the other party's spell casting, he still could not complete even the slightest analysis of the spell, which was undoubtedly a situation that the lich had never encountered. But one thing the Lich is certain of is that if this spell that he doesn't understand at all is cast on him, then any defense he has at his disposal will be useless! In other words, once Cheese strikes, the Lich will end up no different from the rats.
"Nothing is impossible, and although I think it's unfair myself, I can guarantee that he can do it a second time. And this time, you definitely can't dodge. The raven's face had not yet recovered, but he had ceased to pant violently, and he reluctantly stood up and said to the lich. Curse Crow, who has dealt with Cheese many times, knows that he is terrible as a fellow disciple, if the battle between the casters is compared to playing cards, then he is proficient in curses is full of combination cards, playing is surprisingly winning and unguardable, and unlike himself, Cheese's hand can be used as a combat power of the cards are not a few, but these cards are all trump cards, once the mage intends to fight desperately, then these cards in his hand can definitely impress the other party while hurting himself.
"No, no, no, you can't do this!" Cheese's spell put unimaginable pressure on the other party, this sense of horror like a countdown to death choked the throat of the lich that had long ceased to exist, this deep sense of powerlessness and panic was something it had not tasted for a long time, it had thought that it could not fear the death of its life if it became an undead, but Cheese's current actions told it that even if it was no longer alive, its existence was still fragile. The panicked lich had lost its composure, and all it knew was that it couldn't let Cheese finish the spell anyway, so with a wave of its hands, the twisted knights in the cemetery, who had been responsible for protecting the priests of the evil gods, raised their weapons and charged towards Cheese and them.
As if that wasn't enough to stop the mage, the demon that had been hiding in the shadow of the lich rushed out at the behest of his employer. These beings in the abyss have fat bodies and limbs that are too thin to compare, their heads are like a mixture of bats and toads, and their deformed hands and feet cannot move with their bloated bodies, so they have black wings on their backs to power them.
"The plague. Cheese's eyes narrowed, and it seemed that the killer who killed the two unlucky soldiers last night had also been found. These balloon-like abyssal demons are the notorious plague demons, and they are the most disgusting of even the three-digit demon species. That's not to say how powerful or cunning they are, in fact, the intellect of plague demons is no different from that of beasts, and their hand-to-hand combat ability and spell-casting ability are also very pitiful among demons in various stats, and what really makes them tricky in the eyes of people is the contents of their stomachs.
The Plague Demon's stomach does not contain fat or internal organs, but a special substance called the Plague Black Mud, which is what they pour into the bodies of their victims. The effect of the black mud of the plague demon is the origin of the name of the plague demon, perhaps because the black mud itself represents the distorted nature of the abyss, what is covered by black mud, whether it is a living creature or the land, will be "infected" in a very short period of time, vitality and vitality will quickly disappear from their bodies, and eventually be assimilated into another puddle of black mud, even if the land covered by black mud takes a hundred years to recover even under the careful care of professional rangers, and the life covered by black mud...... We can only pray that they did not suffer too much before they died.
"Louise, you take Jack and Mona and they stop the knights. Duck, you and Sander are going to get rid of those plague demons!" Cheese commanded as he cast a spell.
"We know what to do without you saying it. Also, I said don't call me by that name!" Of course, the Cursed Raven knew that the mage's assignment was the best choice at the moment, and the great wolf's powerful combat power allowed her to be a strong shield against the Warped Knight, and of all of them, only the blood-clad Sander and the cursed self could defeat the plague demon at a relatively small cost. As for the others, they may not fully understand Cheese's command, but their trust in the mage leads them to believe that this is the best option.
