Chapter 160: The Caster's Judgment
The undead, although they possess a negative energy that represents death, does not mean that they should be classified as beings outside of the order. Essentially, they are still creatures on the Order side, but in a different form from ordinary creatures.
And the Holy Light, although it is said to be able to restrain the special power of the undead. But the reason for its restraint is not the suppression of chaos by simple order. It's more of a pure opposition between positive and negative energy. It is the conflict between life and death.
When the Light prevails, the undead who represent death are naturally the ones to be restrained. And if you turn this situation upside down, it's actually the same.
So, when these evil spirits, who were manipulated by powerful negative emotions, broke through the instinctive fear and rushed towards Hiko desperately. Hikoshi immediately felt a chill that pierced through his bones, running down the pores around him and invading every corner of his body.
It's a very painful feeling, because it's like submerging your whole body in ice water and trying to cut off your breath alive.
From the inside out, there was a sting that was scraped by the cold blade. The sting was enough to make a strong-willed warrior scream.
And for Hiko, this is really a terrible feeling that he can't bear. After all, his body was already filled with the positive power of the Holy Light, and the erosion of this negative power from the evil spirit would only make his feelings doubly strong.
So, almost instinctively. The Holy Light Qi in his body was already boiling. And this boiling immediately made these evil spirits rushing towards him scream and wail as if they had plunged headlong into boiling water.
Yan had been cultivating Holy Light Qi for quite some time, and judging from his current level, he already had almost the level that a paladin should have. At this level, it may be impossible to deal with those powerful banshees and undead in the world of Azeroth, but it is not a problem to deal with these evil spirits who have not accumulated much at all.
The evil spirit was unlucky to encounter him, and before he could show the slightest bit of majesty, he had almost been stripped of a layer of skin. However, this does not mean that they will choose to give up at this time, in fact, because of this disguised restraint and torture, they are stimulated to go even more crazy.
Several of the evil spirits almost seemed to be crazy, and no longer caring about the burning of the Holy Light on them, they immediately waved the resentment sword in their hands and beckoned to Hiko, who was standing in front of them.
And in the face of such a situation, Hiko himself has no way of knowing.
Because the undead in this world are different from the undead in the world of Azeroth. The vast majority of the undead in that world are existences that can be observed with the naked eye. This is not the case with the undead of this world.
Except for those who have physical spirits, the vast majority of other undead are outside the horizon of the living. And this is especially true of these evil spirits.
So, Hiko had no idea what kind of threat he was facing. He only instinctively sensed the presence of a threat. But he's not stupid. First of all, the holy light in his body was boiling unconsciously, and it was a warning that the instinct that had been trained for many years began to go crazy. Such symptoms were enough for him to realize what kind of situation he was experiencing. And in the face of such a situation, he immediately flipped his palm, and violently burst out in front of him with a sufficient amount of holy light.
It's as if you detonated a shock bomb right in front of your eyes. Even Hiko, the possessor of the holy light, was blurred in an instant because of this dazzling light. However, this is not a serious situation for him. Because in comparison, those evil spirits that pounced on him were the real victims.
After all, the Light's restraint on them was real. If such light caused only visual damage to Hiko, then for them, it was a real flame burning, a complete pain to the skin.
With the Holy Light occupying enough advantages, these evil spirits not only failed to pounce on Hiko's body, but were completely repelled by the Holy Light. It is even said that because one or two of the evil spirits are relatively weak, they have not been able to survive this explosion of holy light, and they have already been directly turned into ashes in the burning of holy light.
The Light's restraint on the undead can be seen in this aspect.
However, although it is said that the two evil spirits have been destroyed. But that doesn't mean that Hiko's situation will get much better. Because of the most basic problem, he still can't see the movements of these evil spirits.
After all, he is not a spell caster who studies the psychic system, and he can give himself a special spell like a spiritual vision. If he wants to be able to see the existence of these evil spirits, the most basic thing is that he needs to cross the transcendent hurdle and basically complete the reshaping of his body.
This must be impossible at the moment, so he can only fight these evil spirits like a blind man. And that's not the worst thing, the worst thing is that his light is exposed to the mage who is with him.
Once the Holy Light was cast, it was to surprise this companion mage.
Like the original battle mage, he also mistook Hiko for a transcendent Nord warrior at first glance. However, he actually came from an orthodox academic school, and there are some things that those battle mages can't understand, just because they can't understand it doesn't mean that they can't understand it either.
Just after carefully examining it, he already had a judgment in his heart. That is, Hiko is not some kind of extraordinary warrior. It's just a Nord with special magical powers. However, this judgment also surprised him, because he really didn't know when the Nords also had the ability to learn spells.
Didn't it mean that the Nords were inherently inert enough to be exposed to any form of spell?
The mage thought about it left and right, but he couldn't come up with a clue. However, he did not give up, but carefully looked for clues in Hiko's body, trying to see a specific clue from him.
This is also a common problem that mages from the academy are used to. And it is precisely because of such a problem that he really found the specific reason.
"It turned out to be a half-breed, no wonder he has such an ability. ”
The judgment made by the Master was based entirely on the age, height, and physical strength of the body. Hiko's age is here, and anyone with a little experience can almost tell that he is only a teenager at most. And from his age to compare the height and strength of Nords of the same age, it is not difficult to see such a result.
After all, although Yan relied on cultivation to make up for the gap in his physical fitness. But no matter how much he makes up for it, the gap in his body shape can't be bridged. Compared to Nords of the same age, he is a whole circle smaller. It is impossible for a well-intentioned person not to see such a characteristic.
It is precisely because he saw this that he let out such an emotion. And it was for this reason that he felt more and more tricky.
The Nord half-breed, perhaps for the Nords, is a pitiful existence that is inherently weak. But to the other races in the outside world, they are definitely dangerous enemies.
The natural Nord bloodline makes their system far superior to that of the average race, and with a little training, they can become powerful warriors. The other half of the bloodline, although it doesn't give them any additional abilities, is enough to soften their innate demonic resistance a little. Under this premise, if you are willing to work hard and train, you may not be able to train an outstanding warrior who is proficient in magic.
In fact, there are quite a few established forces that do just that.
They find the children who have the blood of the Nords in their veins, and train them to turn them into killers who specialize in restraining mages.
For thousands of years, there have been countless spellcasters planted on these terrible mage killers. And their presence has already made the casters have a sense of fear.
The mage is no exception, but in the face of such an existence, he is still glad in his heart.
Because the negative energy of the undead is not within the scope of the Nord people's demon resistance. Therefore, psychic mages who are proficient in necromancy will not be restrained as badly by these mage killers as the casters of other schools. As long as he was careful not to use spirit spells, then it would be enough to maintain this fighting power in front of these guys.
And besides, compared to a half-blood Nord, he was more afraid of encountering a Nord warrior in the transcendent realm.
If he encounters a transcendent warrior, no matter how many evil spirits he manipulates, he will only give away his head for nothing. Because a Nord warrior in the transcendent realm, even with just a pair of fists, is enough to teach him to be a man. And if it's just a Nord half-breed with the power of magic. These evil spirits of his may not be able to become the final victors.
The crux of the matter is how to arrange the tactics. At the very least, at the moment, the Mage didn't think that just letting these evil spirits rush down without a brain would break through the line of defense that Hiko had arranged.
Although he did not know about the Light, it did not prevent him from determining the attributes of the Light through his previous manifestations.
That kind of powerful lethality to the undead made him subconsciously think that this was some kind of powerful life spell at work. And for spells with such attributes, it is obvious that he needs to make some more arrangements here.
Thinking of this, the mage did not hesitate.
With the passage to the River Styx that had been built, he began to cast a spell. And with the words in his mouth, and the self-harm of slitting his wrist and letting the blood flow. A peculiar smell began to fill the entire cabin.
It was the smell of blood mixed with rotting earth, the smell of rotten blood and the resentment of the undead.
Breath of the Underworld, a somewhat special spell. At this time, it began to play an unexpected role.
