Chapter Ninety-Three: Late at Night

Berserk is a very peculiar ability that seems to have nothing to do with race or ancestry, and any other sapient being, if they are gifted enough, will learn it. Of course, the talent here does not refer to the ability to learn some kind of mystery like cheese, and the talent of madness belongs to warriors, or at least to those who dare to fight. But in any case, this ability is very dangerous.

In the knowledge that Cheese reads, the human mind can be divided into two parts, rational and emotional, and when faced with something fearful, either of these two parts will send a signal to the mind to flee. Although they differed in their methods of deriving the act of escaping, the results were strikingly similar. Therefore, it is difficult to get a person to put aside his fear and rush towards what he is afraid of. Even if you can stop thinking and give up the rational part of your thinking, the emotional or instinctive part of your mind will still make you feel uneasy. And if you give up your instinct and trust your own rational judgment, then the result of your judgment is more likely to be to run away. Because of this, in order to be truly mad, that person must let go of the rational and emotional sides of his own thinking.

But can something that is neither rational nor instinctive be called an intelligent being? Looking at the giant bear roaring wantonly in front of him, Cheese already knew the answer. Those terrifying knights are not invincible, they still have real forms after all, and although they may be much heavier at this time than when they were alive, the giant beast that Sander incarnated is not a doll blown out of a balloon. Vampires who don't have the ability to think only use their huge bodies to slam the knights who approach him again and again, and beyond that, he can't even stand upright and attack the opponent with the bear's paws.

And so with the sound of Sander and the knights falling to the ground and crashing, the encounter entered a stalemate. But the mage could clearly see that the terrifying knights might have been knocked down in the collision of the giant bears, and some had even been knocked out, but there were no wounds on their twisted and ugly bodies. On the other hand, on the giant bear that Sander has become, the night-like fur has been turned up in many places, revealing the broken muscles and fat underneath, Cheese doesn't know if those wounds will still exist when Sander turns back into human form, but at this rate of injury, there is no need for those cavalrymen to do anything, as long as the giant bear collides with them a few more times, Rao is Sander will go crazy again, and his body will also lose his ability to move.

"It's a real nuisance. Muttering in a whisper, Cheese had a way to get out of the knights' hands, but Sander's appearance and his madness disrupted the mage's plans. The difficulty of escaping alone and escaping with a black bear that has lost the ability to think is completely incomparable. And at this time, Shande is not capable of receiving any information from the outside world, even if Cheese wants to make him change into something else that is easy to escape or temporarily retreat.

The collision between the giant bear and the horror monster continued, but it was more like the twisted knights smashing into the vampire than the momentum of the dash at the beginning. Although he didn't feel pain or fear, the physical exhaustion made the bear's wheezing sound thicker. If this continues, it won't be long before Sander loses all his mobility.

"Damn, I said I didn't want to use this spell......" Cheese knew that the current situation didn't allow him to think of anything else. In the midst of the crisis, he can only unleash a spell with a high cost to force off the strange knights and buy time to save Sander. After all, the vampire is the leader of the cheese, and once Sander dies here, he will not be able to complete Worf's mission, and I am afraid that the mage will never have a chance to understand what is happening in the night of the Iron Keep.

Reciting incantations that no one could understand, Cheese's eyes began to glow with a chaotic color, a color that would make everyone who saw it feel disgusting or frightened, there was no doubt that the magic that the mage was unleashing was definitely one of the evil spells in this secular world, but now Cheese and not so much care. As the incantation was recited, the teeth in the mage's mouth were deformed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the original neat white teeth were transforming into sharp molars that only grew in the mouths of those carnivorous beasts, and his hands hidden under the gray robe twitched irregularly, although it was impossible to see what was happening in those hands due to the obstruction of the robe, but judging from the traces that continued to appear on the gray robe, no matter what happened to the cheese's hands, they must no longer have the appearance of human palms.

The twisted knights who were still ramming the bear stopped as Cheese began to chant the incantation, and they stared at the mage in the distance with their distorted heads that were unrecognizable, Cheese's incantation sounded like a low roar to the others, but the strange knights seemed to be fascinated by it. Soon, just as the cheese's chant was about to end, the knights suddenly turned their horses' heads and fled into the night with great speed, as if they had been commanded to do so. Although the giant bear was still in its frenzy, it tried to chase the enemy, but its scarred body collapsed overwhelmed.

Seeing the enemy fleeing, Cheese naturally did not need to cast this spell that would cause a lot of damage to himself, and the spell in his mouth changed, and he began to chant the spell of forced ending. In general, it is almost impossible for the caster to stop the spell release on their own in the second half of the spell, and it feels like they are about to forcibly stop a train that has failed to brake. If the caster had to do this, they would suffer a more terrible backlash than the cost of the spell, and some less fortunate mages would probably die as a result. But fortunately, because Cheese has a variety of spells with huge side effects, he has specialized in the cessation of spells, and as long as the spell is not completed, even if it is only a short syllable or a gesture, Cheese has a way to stop casting spells by changing the chanted spell.

But although the spell was stopped, Cheese's face was unusually pale, the interrupted spell just now had drained all his physical strength, and now he could still stand on the ground purely because of the support of the cane in his hand. At this time, even a child with no training can kill him with a knife. Fortunately, there were no children with knives on the streets at night, and the wild bear lost consciousness due to the end of the battle. Interestingly, despite losing consciousness, Xander's instinct caused him to gradually change his form from bear form to human form.

Sitting limply on the floor, Cheese knew that Elsa and they would be back, and that he had to stay awake before he could be like the vampire over there. The mage looked up at the dim sky, and he could sense that this little encounter was probably just an appetizer for tonight, and the night had just begun before dawn came.
