Volume 3 Westward Chapter 7 The Problem of Tenacity
The puppeteer, congealed from carrion, finally ended its stupid 'speech' with scattered bones, leaving only a hazy mist of fierce souls floating in front of everyone's eyes like flames about to be extinguished. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Is there a way to kill it?" Doc knew that this spirit body was extremely difficult to destroy, but he still pinned his hopes on Balchica, because legend has it that after the soul is concentrated, it is a rather terrifying demonic existence, and no one likes to fatten the devil and fight it except for the madman.
Balchika shook his head with a calm face, "The Soul already has a high resistance to spells, and now it has special energy protection, unless it is a mage who is punished by the light system, it can't hurt it at all!"
Kicking a stone in annoyance, Doc said, "I watched it concentrate but was helpless, I have never been so bad as I am today!"
"That's because I've never met such a special and powerful opponent!" Nina said coldly as she stared at the blue light that was clearly extinguished.
"What if there is no help?" said Grieg. Obviously, he was asking how to deal with this powerful soul with only the current six people.
"Raid with the dead, find a demon warlock who controls the soul and fight to the death, or 'seal the soul of the earth', I will find the top resurrection master in three days!" Barcika smiled bitterly.
Several people were silent, and Barchika's meaning was obvious, and they had no way to deal with this monster in front of them.
The green halo in the sky finally completely condensed and formed, and the light cloud that was gradually frozen like mud was quickly stirred like a whirlpool after a violent vibration, and in the center of the heavy light cloud like a rain cloud, a thin cone-shaped light extended to the ground, looking from afar, as if a huge thin mouth funnel was hanging in the sky, and under the funnel, it was the blue light soul.
In special rituals, the spirits can assimilate other resentful spirits into a combination of hatred and evil, which is called condensation. The previous battle with the beast was clearly part of this ritual. Although a few people understand the key, they are powerless to prevent it from happening, and they can't let themselves be torn and eaten alive by wild beasts!
"Clean water!" A clear blue bolt was released from Allen's staff, striking directly at the soul, who knew that the soul of concentrating could absorb free negative energy from all things in heaven and earth by relying on the resentful body. The water itself is a prayer to calm the soul, and Eren hopes to purify some of the spirits of resentment during the evil ritual to weaken them.
Like water into boiling oil, as soon as the clean water sticks to the soul, it turns into fluffy and bulging water vapor, and dissipates without a trace in an instant, and Eren knows that the power of the soul in front of her has far exceeded her imagination, and a 'clean water' is just a drop in the bucket......
In this way, the powerful soul gradually took shape in the eyes of several people, and the blue light was finally as viscous as tar and recognizable, while the green halo in the sky was slowly and quickly cleaned up by its long whale absorbing water. The night was dark again, but the surrounding scenery was even more barren because of a battle, lined with the corpses of countless animals, like the corpses of the legendary thorns on the edge of hell.
At the end of his concentration, a dark blue light suddenly erupted around his body, enveloping the entire battlefield, like a semicircular pot lid covering the ground. Within the light mask, many animal corpses quickly decayed and decomposed, and then rose into the air like grass ashes, and black bones like sand grains peeled off from the fly ash, absorbed by an invisible force, and gradually condensed in the light of the soul, forming a strong human form.
Liya and the others had never seen such a spectacle, and they were all stunned, and only woke up when the human figure raised its head to the sky and let out a roar.
"Ridiculous mortals, how dare you enter the territory of my great master, you are destined to be sacrificed on the altar of blood!" In the hoarse and hollow demonic voice, the spirit raised his right arm, and the claws of the bone sand flashed with a bright halo, and it was actually the metallic color of iron and stone. "I, Calus, Lord of the Dead, will make you suffer and despair through this dark body of rotten sand......"
"What a rambling, let you pretend!" Doc was already waiting anxiously, how could he still listen to a puppet boasting here, the double axe was full of light, red as blood, and the body rushed up, the light flashed, and the fierce soul Calus had been cut off by the waist.
In the midst of the rude laughter, Calus said mockingly: "Tiny idiot, how did your insignificant attack like an ant hurt my body?" Sure enough, with the virtual body of the special energy of the negative realm, Calus would not even be cut in half like an ordinary entity, but only showed a thrilling scar, but it was quickly filled and restored by the returning black bone particles, and the battle began again.
It's a battle without suspense, and Calus's traits have made him invincible. Grieg's strength, Leia's fierceness, Dock's fierceness, Nina's trickiness, Balchika's power, and Allen's healing assistance, as well as the tacit cooperation between several people, all the superposition can only make the battle more tragic and prolonged. As Calus said, they can only grow more and more tired, more and more exhausted, and more and more desperate......
Calus's body can be a pile of loose bone sand, a magic blast, a heavy punch knockdown, only to scatter the sand, and then under the attraction of negative energy, it will gather as before.
Calus's body can also be as hard as stone, its claws, which often shimmer with metallic luster, dance like the wind, and can also retract into the body, and then attack and hurt people from unimaginable tricky angles, its weird ruthlessness makes Lea and the others cry bitterly.
This fight is more than half an hour, the three people in close combat are already ragged and scarred, and the three people at the distance are even more sweaty and heavy, and their faces are pale, except for Barchika, the energy and physical strength of the five people are not one in ten, and they have long lost the power and compactness of the early stage, and they stumble one by one as if they were drunk, and even the appearance of dodging has become stupid.
Calus is worthy of being a collection of more than a thousand resentful souls, and the 'famous quotes' in his mouth have never stopped, with the laughter like a night owl and the increasingly frequent playful and sadistic actions, he is doing his best to humiliate himself, and he is really fulfilling the promise of completely breaking the psychology of the six people.
Boom ...... With a crisp sound, the last axe in Doke's hand was knocked away by Calus's claw, and then he kicked him in the chest, and Doke flipped all the way out, and the kick was a little heavier, and Dock was also a little tired, and he didn't get up after crawling there for a long time.
"Tut-tut! How can this be done? There must be still some energy and physical strength left to dig up!" Calus said with a smile, the bone sand of his left hand condensed into the shape of a thick male genitalia, "This is the common source of all pleasure and pain, although my body cannot experience it, but I can see the look on your face when you are thrust, it is a very perfect enjoyment, especially when it is used on a beautiful woman with a husband, friends, companions, and other relationships next to men......"
Calus was already torturing the wills of several people, and it wanted to drain everyone's physical strength first, so that they would become lambs to the slaughter, and anger was obviously a good emotion to help it achieve its goals.
Grieg roared, and rushed up with red eyes, but the light on his fist was already quite thin, which was still formed by the anger of Calus's foul language.
Poof! There was a dull sound, and the punch slammed into Calus's left chest, and Carus's left arm vanished, and at the same time, from his left chest, Grieg's wrist was caught in the newly condensed hand. "Don't worry, I'll come to your back door with that toy with a woman's blood!" Calus laughed and gave it away, and Grieg's massive body flew out like a punching bag, landing on the ground with a bang.
"Or, we can do it at the same time! there's more than one young lady here!" said Calus, glancing at Barčica, as his arms turned into several strips that moved into snakes, the tip of which still resembled the male genitalia.
Leah and Nina clenched their silver teeth, and Alan was discolored, and now several people are like meat on the case, saying that it is ugly, and they want to die, but they don't know if they can be happy. They'd all seen Calus's speed and strength, and he was so cunning that he believed that any drastic move would cause it to burst into flames, and things would only get worse.
Coincidentally, the eyes of several people were focused on Barcika's body, the oldest earth mage had rich experience, a smart mind, and was highly respected, but now, he could only smile bitterly, "Do you have to choose the path of soul sealing and escaping? That will mean that even if you succeed, the strength of these people will be resurrected and the influence of the soul sealing two spells in the future will be seriously reduced, that is, the end of your adventurous career, and you will be completely defeated like this?"
"Mr. Ether, we still want to see you perform magic tricks!" Barčica shouted as he suddenly tore open his throat. Now it's not a matter of face, I hope this noble man won't die without help.
"You guys have been very noisy all night! Seeing this situation, it's more interesting than your vain to invite a few bards to come!" After a thick rock thorn, Li Yun lazily walked around, "From the very beginning, you have been deceived by its lies, how can this kind of goods reach the realm of absorbing negative energy at once, it is just relying on the life energy in the countless corpses to talk to you Zhou Xuan, look at the corpses on the ground, how many have not turned into ashes?...... He didn't bother to say more, the hope of being able to survive made them lose their determination to fight stoically to the end, and in the battle of wisdom and will, Liya and the others had already lost.
Turning his head and hooking his finger at Calus, Li Yun said disdainfully: "Come, what is that, let's die......" The look in his eyes was like looking at a piece of.
Carus roared in rage, looking up to the sky and screaming, although Li Yun did hit its bluff, but the energy provided by the remaining corpse was enough for him to explode wildly. Calus secretly vowed to tear this tiny human who dared to defy it into countless pieces and play with his soul to his heart's content...... Like a black bolt of lightning, where the sand and gravel were splashed, Calus rushed straight into Li Yun at an unprecedented speed, and the air let out a piercing scream from the sudden violent friction.
Li Yun calmly picked up his cloak, held it in both hands like a bullfight, and placed it in front of him, and then, Calus volleyed into the air with a claw as sharp as a hellish demonic beast.
His wrists flipped and wrapped, as if the cloak was the entrance to other planes, and Calus's massive body and thunderous blow disappeared into the flying coat with a loud thunder and a small raindrop......
"Everyone, wash up and sleep early!" Li Yun said and ignored the expressions of a few people as if he had seen a ghost, and lazily walked back to the rock thorn that could not hide a person at all, and disappeared again.
"Whoa!" Doc groaned, his head held high, as if he had lost all his strength, and made heavy contact with the earth. Six people were beaten to death all night, and they were humiliated enough, and they came out like a dog. The gap between people is really not ordinarily big!
"What kind of spell did you use?" asked Barcika after Nina recovered from her distraction.
Balčka swallowed the saliva that didn't seem to exist, in order to solve the problem of a chapped throat that was about to burst into flames. "Space magic? I don't know, I haven't heard of it!"
"Magic! Skill from the Devil's Plane!" Alan didn't know why he suddenly had such an idea, but he unconsciously read it.
"Spells that are a cut above the overall rank of known magic, from ancient and distant ...... that we can't imagine," Barčka muttered to himself, as if inspired by something, "What is the opposite of the demon?"
"God!" Liya blurted out, and then exclaimed, "Divine art?"
"There is no legendary divine aura that makes people give in to the impulse to worship, it should be a quasi-divine technique or a derivative of a certain divine magic," Allen analyzed.
"Is there any other possibility?" said Doc was unusually shocked by this statement.
"Philistines disturb themselves, some problems cannot be solved by guessing, and some existence is not something we can understand, it is useless to think about it! It's really tiring......" Barčka sighed again.
"We lost because we lost our tenacity, our composure, and our courage! Everyone examines themselves, and this is a shame that should not be forgotten!" Grieg's words weighed on people's hearts like a heavy stone.
Balčka propped himself up on the ground with his staff, staggered to a large rock that had been pushed out of the ground, and whether it still smelled of dampness or not, he leaned back and sat down with difficulty, "I need to meditate for a while, guys!"
Picking up the oilwood that was not far away, and re-erecting it, Nina looked at her hand that was a little bloody and blurred because of pulling the bowstring, and said lightly: "I'll keep vigil!"
The last bit of mana turned into a healing touch and holy water revival and blessed Nina, which Eren left to use to kill herself, and now she can't use it anymore. Doc and Grug didn't move at all, and now they were lying on the dung heap, and they could sleep, and they were really exhausted.
In the early morning, the fog in the forest has not yet cleared, the sky is already cloudy, and there is no noise of birds, and it seems very quiet here. Nina was the first to wake up, yesterday she was on duty all night, sleepy, sitting cross-legged on a rock with a bow and closing her eyes to recuperate, and I don't know when she fell asleep, and when she woke up again, she was attracted by the smell of meat.
It was still the deserted mound, where the cargo was, where the hoods were still gone, where the rides were still quiet, where the thousands of spikes protruded, but the carcasses of animals everywhere were gone, and like myself, their companions were in rags, and they had not yet arisen from their deep sleep. Not far away, dumped tents, broken ropes, tattered felt carpets, and some simple utensils were scattered there, silently recounting the thrilling battle last night.
After a week of rounding, Nina's eyes rested on the campfire in the mound, on which was a deep-mouthed iron pot, and the aroma of meat was carried around the camp by the water vapor rising from the pot, and the edge of the campfire was circled, and the small branches with bread on the top were evenly planted in the soil, and the bread was already baked golden.
Li Yun sat by the campfire, his dark eyes staring at the burning flames, as if he was happily burning the flames, and as if he had let go of his thoughts, focused and deep. From Nina, his well-defined profile could be seen, and the glow of the flames was imprinted on his face, making his fair complexion glow softly.
Lined with desolation and tranquility, the scene on the hill gave Nina a sense of tranquility and warmth that grew and spread in her heart, whether it was because of this quiet and beautiful morning, or the magic of the campfire and food, or the familiar and strange man who brought her safety and memories of comfort, Nina didn't know, she just hoped that this scene could last as long as possible, a little longer......
People who are really hungry and want to solve their pain to the maximum will not chew like a date, because although it will solve the needs of the stomach in time, they will lose the opportunity to make the taste buds feel good about the food. Doc and Grug didn't eat fast, and even chewed a little slowly, but there was enough of it. Moreover, the expression of satisfaction with squinting and sighing from time to time while eating will make people think that they have already got the whole world at this time!
In Li Yun's opinion, this meal was slightly more embarrassing than before, and although Liya and the others had tried their best to relax their minds, Li Yun still found a lot of awe and confusion from their movements and eyes. The huge gap between strengths is also an obstacle between people's hearts, which makes people unconsciously form a hierarchical concept, and naturally there is a lot less casualness and cordiality.
"Mr. Aiser, for the kindness you gave us yesterday, words can't express our gratitude, let alone how to repay ......" When she said this, Liya became a little anxious Aiai, especially when she thought of her encounter with Li Yun, she made a lot of words, how strong she was...... It's just that she, the 'intermediary', has this unshirkable responsibility to explain, and now I really can't wait to have a good crack to get into.
"Oh, let's rest here for the rest of the day! I'm not used to sleeping in the open, and the tents and blankets are not so damaged that they can't be repaired, and we have patched needlework and thread with us, and we hope to sleep in a warm tent at night. Also, it does not seem to be as you say, that you are in complete control, and that you may be willing to revise the course of action, or find out the way forward, as it will take time. ”
"Yes, follow your wishes......" Liya wanted to say something more, but seeing that Li Yun didn't care about last night's incident at all, she didn't have to thank you for being a foot long.
The wind is beautiful, the air is fresh, and the weather is good today. Liya and the others all had their own tasks, and they seemed to be busy, and several of them lost their usual laughter, probably reflecting on yesterday's combat performance.
Li Yun felt like an idler wandering slowly in the fast-moving crowd shot, and he seemed a little bored.
"It's boring! Why don't I do a magic trick for you again!" Li Yun, who was dangling, suddenly said to a few people who were working.
Then, in their stunned eyes, silver glitter particles gurgled down from between Li Yun's hands rubbing with each other, and these glittering sand was gradually condensing into a human form......
