Chapter 14: The Wall of Iapetos
"Who are they?" asked Wang Ningyuan eagerly. Because he was going to fight, he had to know what he was going to face.
And Adonis said to himself, "You really can't run, because you can't run anymore." ”
Everyone was at a loss. Fortunately, Adonis finally explained to them: "These are no ordinary evil spirits. They are most likely the wraiths of dead witchers. ”
"The Wraith of the Demon Hunter!" everyone was a little surprised.
"Yes, the wraith of the witchers. Adonis said with a little sadness.
Finding that the young people were still confused, he had to explain further: "Under normal circumstances, the soul of a demon hunter will return to heaven. However, some witchers have died because they were abandoned by their companions or even betrayed. Then you should be able to imagine what kind of resentment their souls will carry. Therefore, such a demon hunter soul is easily bewitched by demons and becomes evil spirits. The strength of the witcher's wraiths often depends on the strength of their lives. Some will even accept demonic powers to make themselves stronger. ”
"Then they will not go to heaven, but they will be strong. Are they ......?" asked Lake, half-hesitantly.
"That's right, they're for revenge. But usually before actually killing their companions who have failed them, they are often not too strong. But if they do kill the person they want to kill, they will become even more difficult to deal with. ”
"Why is that?"
"Because when they become evil spirits, they lose their qualifications to return to heaven. And when they succeed in revenge, they lose their purpose and don't know what to do. Wandering like this, it won't be long before they discover that there's nothing to excite them except killing. ”
"And who will they hunt?"
Adonis looked up into Ryker's eyes and said, "Their main target is the witchers. ”
Adonis bowed his head again and said, "If they want to hunt the witchers, they need more power. So they tend to end up completely throwing themselves into the arms of demons. Become a powerful evil spirit with the dual powers of the witcher's divine power and the power of the devil. What we're dealing with now is likely to be the Witcher's Wraith, and it's unclear whether they've accepted the power of the Devil and become the Witcher's Spirit. ”
Bella, who had come to her senses, interjected, "They must have received demonic powers. Otherwise, how could there be a raging fire burning in those eyes! According to what you said, it seems that you can't beat it, and you can't run away. Aren't we dead?"
"Not necessarily. First of all, the wraiths themselves can also have burning eyes. And there's a reason why every witcher lives to my age. Adonis said.
Adonis had the confidence to say this. Because of his fame stunt, the Wall of Iapetos has never been breached.
This time, he was equally convinced that it would stand the test.
And now outside the white barrier, the knights are dead except for the four who were possessed. Some were beheaded, others were cut off by the waist. Some were even torn apart with their bare hands.
Their armor was completely incapable of protecting them. The four possessed knights were simply immensely powerful.
Covered in black smoke, they walked to the wall of Iapetos.
Together, the four Ghost Riders raised their knights' greatswords.
After a few clicks, the knight's greatsword crafted by the royal forger actually broke one after another!
The Wall of Iapetus lives up to its name!
Naturally, the four Ghost Riders refused to give up, they threw away half of their swords and simply slammed their fists against the barrier.
Although the walls of Iapetus are still strong. But the loud thud still scared Fate out.
"Have you been waiting like this?" Wang Ningyuan was a little skeptical. Because he saw beads of sweat oozing from Adonis's face!
"Of course not. It doesn't matter if it's a human or an evil spirit. Neither anger nor excitement can last long. When these evil spirits calmed down from the excitement of killing just now, they began to wander again. That's when we get our hands dirty. Adonis said with some difficulty.
Wang Ningyuan could easily tell that the barrier was being struck by Adonis using his divine power to support it. That is, an attack on the barrier is equivalent to an attack on Adonis.
So the barrier's ability to withstand an attack is obviously limited. If Adonis is fighting the evil spirits himself, he can use his Wall of Iapotus to make a tactical defense, instead of staying that way all the time.
Now Adonis has been working hard to save them. Although he seemed to be very relaxed, Wang Ningyuan knew that it was not a way to go on like this.
Four extremely powerful evil spirits hammered for a while and found that it had no effect. They immediately changed their tactics. At the same time, they spewed flames mixed with black mist from their mouths.
The flames were so scorching that the white barrier began to turn black!
And the muscles on Adonis's face twitched, and his eyes were already tightly closed!
Could it be that he can't hold on! Wang Ningyuan pressed the handle of the short knife with his hand, ready to meet the sudden battle at any time.
But Adonis suddenly shouted, "Drink!" and then he folded his hands together again and again!
At the same time, the barrier that was scorching with the flames spewed by the Ghost Rider suddenly slammed outward!
The collision knocked the four Ghost Riders flying. The barrier crumbled and vanished.
The four Ghost Riders, who were completely painless like zombies, immediately stood up and rushed over as soon as they fell to the ground. They wanted to rush in through the gap in the barrier and kill.
And the side of the Wall of Iapetus that had just been shattered had been erected again!
The four Ghost Riders slammed into the barrier.
But that's just the beginning. Ghost Rider then took a dozen steps back and stood still. And the flames in their eyes suddenly burst into flames. That is a sign of their anger and that they are using their true power.
Immediately, the stone walls of the farmhouse courtyard floated!
The stones of those courtyard walls floated higher and higher, much taller than the tallest trees in town!
When the stones reached such a height, they began to smash towards the wall of Iapetus like meteors!
Countless stones were smashed down one after another. Smoke and dust were already rising around the barrier. To make matters worse, Ghost Rider doesn't think that's enough.
Soon, all the other houses and stone walls around it flew into the sky. And everything that could be burned burned. Stones mixed with fireballs fell like meteor showers.
Fortunately, when the knights came, they had already driven all the nearby residents away, otherwise they would have suffered heavy casualties.
Adonis's fame has been challenged like never before. In order to protect the young people, he had to withstand such a fierce attack.
Soon the entire area around the barrier was on fire. Even the stone was wrapped in a dark red flame. And Ghost Rider didn't stop there. More stone and wood burned towards the barrier......
