Chapter Twenty-Four: A Sanctuary Beyond the World
In Pavatiga, there are two main categories of undead, one is the entity and the other is the spirit body, which is commonly referred to as skeletons and ghosts, and as for zombies, corpse witches, dark knights, and even undead dragons, they are all derivatives of these two categories.
No matter what kind of undead, they need the soul fire as support, of course, the soul fire is also a general term, to be specific, the spirit of the undead is called the soul fire, which often exists in the center of the body similar to the heart, and the physical undead are called instinctive fire, which generally exists in the skull, like the two green ghost fires in the skull's eye sockets, which are actually their instinctive fires.
If you want to kill an entity-type undead, the most thorough way is, of course, to purify it with the Light Divine Technique, and there will be no future trouble after purification. But this is too troublesome, after all, there are not too many clerics who have mastered the magic of the light system, so people prefer another easy way.
Smash their heads.
The soul fire is quite fragile, so it needs to be stored in a closed skull for protection, once the skull is cracked, the soul fire will quickly escape, and the solid undead who have lost their energy support will naturally die immediately, reverting to an ordinary corpse.
After many shadow chases, everyone has also seen a lot of undead in other worlds, but they are similar to the undead in Pavadiga, at least there is no difference in the issue of soul fire, so everyone has always felt that the undead in all worlds should be similar, and no one expected that they would meet completely different undead here.
"I don't know why. Milita couldn't give an answer to Shuer's question, "I can't see the soul fire in them, but I can feel it." In other words, there must be soul fires, but I don't know where, I suspect that their soul fires have merged with the bones. ”
If you can't find the soul fire, it means that you can't kill the undead, and you can only be consumed alive by the undead, which is the most troublesome result.
However, Shure was not in a hurry, because it turned out that these few minutes of fighting were still rewarding, and the undead were not unable to kill, it was just a matter of effort.
"There is no solution. "That's what Shure wants to know most.
"The magic technique you used when you broke off just now is very good, just erase their existence, and the stronger individuals can solve it alone. ”
Do you really dare to think that Xiu'er secretly rolled his eyes, but he didn't show it: "That's impossible, the consumption is too great, in the face of so many undead, it can only be me who is erased." ”
"Then there's only a stupid way, and that bloodthirsty maniac is doing well. Miridy sighed regretfully, "She did more than half of the effective kills, and the rest was basically flat-chested." ”
"See, it's just to smash them completely. Shul nodded, indeed, for skeletons, if they were just disassembled, they could be reassembled in a few seconds, but it was impossible to put bones together, which meant that once they were completely smashed, they would never have a chance to recover.
"I have a way to kill them, but it takes a long time to prepare, and I can't deal with that much. Miridy added, "But it's much easier than smashing all the time." ”
"Did you hear that?" Shul raised his voice and said to everyone, "Now everyone will cut down on pointless attacks and focus on buying time for Miriday." ”
"Mia, your attack works, turn your target to the rear, try to reduce the number of enemies and blow them up. ”
"No problem. ”
"Saff, Saff. ”
"Roar!"
"Forget it, it's okay, have fun. Shuer touched his nose and sighed, anyway, her attack was effective, there was no need to forcibly summon her back now, it was just a pain for Macageren, so let's mourn for him secretly.
"Ceren, you're back. Miridy stretched out her hand into the air, and the huge skeleton in the tree planting trough that was seriously stepping on the gopher suddenly jumped on the spot, and the body was still in the air, and the skull broke away from the body and flew back into Miridy's hand, and the bones that made up the body disintegrated in the air, and the huge bones fell from the air like rain, smashing several undead who wanted to chase them back into the pit again.
Holding her skull with one hand, Miridi pulled out the bone sword, and the dark energy on her body became more and more intense, and the dark energy rose to its peak when she crushed the crystal on the pendant, and even a black mist began to overflow from her skin.
Reciting a dark incantation in his mouth, the necromancer's bone sword pointed to the ground, and with heavy steps, he began to outline the magic circle on the black stone with the tip of the sword, even if Shuer had recorded the appearance of many magic circles when he was studying, many of which were undead, but the magic circle that Miridy was now depicting was beyond the scope of his knowledge, and he couldn't even understand the structure of the magic circle, let alone the effect.
The lines of the circle became more and more complex, and Miridy's steps became heavier and heavier, and in the end, the necromancer had to gasp a few times with each step, obviously drawing quite hard, but there was constantly dark energy, feeding back from the skull in her hand into her body, allowing her to support her smoothly.
"Thank you, give me five more minutes. ”
The one-meter-diameter magic circle, Militi actually drew for nearly ten minutes, and these ten minutes were not at all easy in the eyes of the shadow chasers.
The loss of an attack point had an impact on the Shadow Chasers, not as simple as reducing the number of people by one, but a chain reaction that broke out, and the originally relatively perfect defensive formation became overstretched after the loss of Miriday.
Originally, the necromancer was responsible for the tree planting slot on the left, her summon was responsible for the right one, Shure and Mobuck closed the road one after the other, and Moria was a mobile force, filling the vacancy at any time, and the four of them cooperated tacitly, on the basis of ensuring the safety of the position, fully liberated the main attacker Mia.
And now, Miridy can't participate in the battle, Moria has to retreat to guard against the undead on both sides, she is sometimes not enough alone, and needs Shul to divide his energy to assist, which leads to Shule's defense line being in frequent distress, and several times had to switch places with Mobuck to barely maintain the line.
"Five minutes, are you sure?" Spit out the turbidity in his chest, and after receiving an affirmative answer, looking at the two attackers who were still reducing the number of enemies, Shul made a decision, "Saf, you and Macageren continue, the others immediately abandon the position and concentrate towards the center of the position, Mia, after concentrating, you continue to attack, don't be disturbed by me." ”
Although he didn't know what Shul planned to do, Mobuck didn't hesitate for a moment, and quickly retreated close to the center of the position, and Moria no longer jumped back and forth, but squeezed to Shuer's side and protected Shuer, who was already sitting cross-legged on the ground.
There is no need to move, there is no need to be distracted, now is the best time, and so, the magic reappears.
This time, several teammates saw the vision when the magic was released.
"This place is my favor, saith the Lord, and all who stop here shall be blessed by me. Shure's voice was obviously very soft, but it came from a distance, and it could be heard clearly even from a few hundred meters away, "The Lord said, follow the guidance of the moonlight, and you will enjoy peace and tranquility. ”
Shur sat cross-legged on the ground, chanting praises in his mouth, his fingers constantly writing in the air, as he wrote, it was clear that there was nothing around him, but in everyone's ears, a bell sounded that hit the depths of the soul, and in the faint chants, the sacred words that could not be understood by mortals appeared one by one from his fingertips, jumping and hovering in the air.
"In the name of the Lord, call upon the light that is outward, give the believer tranquility, and praise the moon without light, holy. ”
There seemed to be a dark red full moon rising behind him, and the red moon hung high in the sky, sprinkling a faint red light, just enveloping several people in the center of the position. On the red light curtain, those incomprehensible words appeared from time to time, and the words flashed and disappeared, and every time they flashed, the shadow chasers under the red light would feel a majestic energy coming from the light curtain, quickly replenishing their consumption.
Although shrouded in moonlight, this did not affect the attacks of the Shadow Chaser, and Mia and Moriah poured their fire out to their heart's content, whether it was magic or arrows, and there was no hindrance when they pierced the light curtain.
And the treatment of the undead is completely different.
Having lost the obstruction of the defensive line, the undead finally stormed the position of the Shadow Chasers, pounced on the living shrouded in red light. However, all undead who pounce within the range of the red light will immediately pass through the other side of the light curtain as soon as their limbs reach into the light curtain, no matter how many attempts are made. The area shrouded in red moonlight is as if it has become independent of this space, and the people inside can be seen from the outside, but they can never be touched.
The shelter outside the world, this is one of the top divine arts close to the legendary divine art of the Dark Moon Church, and it was once thought that only the legendary rank priests could perform it, until the outlier of Shuer came out.
Once the magic is released, it can isolate an absolutely safe shelter in a fixed area, in fact, it is to project a corner of the Dark Moon Goddess Divine Kingdom in the present world, in which not only can the energy be slowly restored, but also not affected by the outside world, unless the people outside can break through the barriers of space, they will definitely not be able to harm the people in the shelter.
However, shelters are not only immobile and limited, but also very dangerous. Over time, the consumption of the liberator will also increase by a square number, and once the limit is exceeded, if it is forcibly continued, the liberator will assimilate with the isolated space and return to the kingdom of God in the flesh. The mortal body cannot withstand the pure energy of the Kingdom of God, and the moment it returns, it will be assimilated by the energy of the Kingdom of God, and it will never be able to return to this world, which can be equivalent to death.
Five minutes was close to his limit for Shure, and if after five minutes, Milita didn't finish her job as she said, then he would have to choose between certain death and the desperate fight to cancel the divine arts.
This would lead to a very passive result, but Shul did not hesitate to do so, because he was fully confident that his teammates would do everything she had to do, and that if Miridy said five minutes, she would be able to do her job in five minutes.
Can it really be?
