Chapter 19: Mighty Strength
Although the name of "Death Howl" is a howl, it does not actually cause much damage to the body, but goes straight to the soul, so even if you put your hand on your ear, it is useless.
But in fact, because this talent spell of the corpse witch is too famous and the threat is too high, Demont has long studied how to deal with the death howl.
Leo, Gray Alfalfa, and Charlotte, as spellcasters, have relatively strong souls, and naturally have a certain resistance to this spell, even if they don't rely on protective magic or magic skills, they won't die directly. And the Paladin's Iron Fist, which belongs to half of the casters, should be able to resist if they are prepared in advance and fight for soul damage.
However, the pure warriors Demmon, the half-elves, and the half-way Murafa, who joined halfway, will definitely not be spared in the range of the indiscriminate and full coverage of the Death Howl attack.
To this end, Dermon bought a magic scroll that he could activate at a high price, a level 7 range protection magic
"Soul Solidification" can make all souls in the range very "hard" in a short period of time, effectively preventing them from being pulled out of the body by the death howl.
Of course, in this process, the mental power is also limited and can no longer be controlled at will. However, compared to the damage that a death cry can do, this side effect is acceptable.
As a combat officer, Demon knew that after using the scroll, his already small mental power would definitely become more and more exhausted, which would inevitably affect the performance of his combat effectiveness. So after Leo joined, he handed over the scroll again.
It can be said that it is precisely with the existence of this powerful and very targeted magic scroll that several people dare to directly confront the terrifying corpse witch.
But the current situation is far beyond expectations!
Feeling the death howl, Leo's heart was shocked, because it was so different from what he had learned from books!
Generally speaking, only if the caster's level is too much higher than the spell level, then it is possible that instantaneous magic does not need to be prepared. This is easy to see not only for mages, but also for warlocks and priests. It's just that when the warlock casts a spell, he draws power directly from the bloodline, without going through the spell model, but it also needs to make a certain amount of preparation.
But the corpse witch in front of him obviously didn't make any preparations, and directly opened his mouth and cast the high-level spell of "Death Howl", without giving Leo any time to use the magic scroll at all.
This is by no means justified unless ......
Unless......
The Corpse Witch has reached the Sanctuary. It's possible to cast a death howl so easily!
Obviously, his side still underestimated the strength of the corpse witch, but why didn't it just use a sanctuary-level spell, it should be more powerful?
No one can answer these questions, the soul impact of the death howl is like an invisible claw clamping the soul and pulling it out of the body, or like the fiercest wind, pervasive and sweeping away the soul.
Moment. Leo felt a sharp pain in his soul and almost passed out, let alone taking out the magic scroll from his arms, it was difficult to even move his fingers.
No doubt. His soul was detaching himself from his body, and he was losing control of his body. The others, such as Demon in the front row and Charlotte and the half-elves in the middle, had already fallen to the ground. Only the Iron Fist is armed by God's gifts. It can barely hold on, and even the gray alfalfa is also crumbling.
"Damn, are you really going to leave them behind?" Leo cried on. Finally, the soul was not separated from the body.
He does have life-saving hole cards, such as the flashing technique that can be cast without gestures, and now he is only 100 meters away from the surface, and he will definitely be able to escape, but the others will definitely not be spared.
Leo never thought of himself as a good person, but he really didn't want to leave behind his comrades who had just fought side by side. Therefore, until the last moment, he still wanted to fight for it, at least do his best, and not leave regrets.
Soon, he noticed something unusual.
I have a professor in my soul, but in the face of such a situation, why didn't the professor react?
"Yes, my body is not injured, and my soul is not injured, but the whole body is removed from the body, so the professor does not react!" Thinking of this, Leo had an idea, although it is impossible for the professor to defend against death howls, but now his soul is leaving the body and losing control of the body, so what about the professor?
The death howl was still ongoing, and seizing the last chance, he said in his consciousness, "Professor, now you control my body!"
The professor immediately responded: "The order could cause ......"
"Maybe? isn't it impossible?" Leo noticed something strange and interrupted categorically, "Execute! Otherwise, I'll die, and you'll be gone!"
After a brief pause, the professor said, "The order has been accepted, please give us instructions on the next step." ”
Leo couldn't help but be overjoyed, and directly asked the professor to control his body to take out the scroll and stimulate it, although he didn't know what the sequelae would be, but at least it was better than everyone losing their lives.
A second later, with Leo as the center, a dazzling light bloomed, and in the light, there was a faint hint of infinite starlight, which looked mysterious and distant.
Under the influence of magic, the effect on the soul suddenly froze, and a strange viscous sensation hit, and the pain disappeared.
Under the instinctive connection of body and soul, the soul returns, and everything returns to normal.
Leo immediately took back control of his body from the professor and glanced around slightly.
Demon, Tolman, the half-elf, and Charlotte lay on the ground, having lost their instincts, but fortunately the breath of life was still there, and it was clear that the soul had not been dispelled, and had returned to the body. Murafa's soul was wandering around his head, apparently confused, and it seemed that he needed help from outside forces to return to his body.
In addition to Leo, Alfalfa and Iron Fist also remained awake, but they were all very weak.
"Oh coffee?" In mid-air, feeling the change, feeling the death howl lose its effect, the orc corpse witch closed his mouth and looked down with some puzzlement.
Obviously, with its insight, it is not quite able to understand what is going on.
But it came from some instinct, but it realized that something was abnormal, and waved its right hand, and a gray halo appeared, falling in several streams, floating towards the few people who did not fall.
If you look closely, those halos are constantly surging, and there are countless hideous faces inside, which are the souls of intelligent creatures! But they can't get out of the range of the halo, and can only be controlled by them.
There is no doubt that if you are hit by such an evil spell, your soul will definitely be seriously damaged! (To be continued......)
