Spiritual creatures are probably the most difficult of all wizard guards to deal with.
If it was an ordinary witch beast, with the number of apprentices present, it would be easy to clean it up at a price. But if it is a spirit creature, it will be a little tricky.
First of all, these spirits do not have real bodies.
In a low-magic world, people really die when they stop breathing. The death of the body also means the slack and demise of the spiritual consciousness, and the soul cannot exist alone.
But in the world of high demons, those individuals with strong consciousness during life, whether they are human wizards or terrifying monsters, even after their bodies die, their spiritual consciousness may continue to exist in the material world with their strong willpower.
They take strong resentment or obsession as the core, condense elemental matter as the torso, and can reappear in the material world when they are strong enough to a certain extent.
Their bodies are between virtual and real, and they can switch freely between virtual and solid.
When they become incorporeal, the transparent body is completely illusory, and can travel freely among unprotected substances, such as wood, stone, metal, etc. Only those controlled elemental energies and magic force fields can isolate them from penetrating.
When incorporeal, the spirit body will not receive any physical damage. However, due to the lack of solid body protection, the damage effect will even be doubled when attacked by elements.
And when they are converted into entities, the bodies condensed by elemental substances have both physical and elemental damage, and the effect shown is to absorb biological activity, accompanied by strong negative energy damage. However, like the spirit body in front of him, the attack obviously included some freezing damage.
At this time, the spirit body still has extremely high damage immunity against physical attacks, and the damaged body can also be recovered by absorbing free elements in the void. So if you want to deal with spirit bodies, the most useful means are elemental attacks.
So, in the next half an hour, this spirit body was like a elusive assassin, coming out from the walls, floors, and ceilings from time to time, and quickly disappeared after touching several apprentices.
Due to its fast and concealed movements, most of the sorcery inspired by the apprentices hit the floor and walls, making it difficult to damage it. As a result of the apprentices being attacked by it, their bodies were injured, their flesh and blood rotted, their wounds were frozen, and it was difficult to recover with drugs such as hemostatic ointment.
But it was weird, this spirit body seemed to have a grudge against them, it only stared at the few of them attacking, but ignored Alice beside them.
And Alice was also happy and leisurely, holding the gem of true sight and lying on the wall, carefully examining the portraits on it one by one.
Like the wizard guards she had seen in the swamp tower, none of the portraits that could be placed in this corridor were normal. What is sealed inside is either some kind of spirit body, or some strange monsters with strange abilities.
Whenever Alice held the gem of true sight and looked inside the portrait, the monster sealed inside would squeak and scream, desperately hiding in the depths of the portrait to avoid being illuminated by the gem's light.
Finally, Alice found the gloomy landscape painting on one side of the wall, and then saw the apprentice Will who was screaming desperately in it.
At this time, the portrait has turned into a dark night with the curtain hanging down.
Under the cold and dim moonlight, the gray grass and soil near the hill turned, and shambling figures came out of the ground, and the deep howling of ho ho ho ho resounded through the world.
This is a horrible mummy that has been sleeping underground for many years. The originally plump and plump body was completely shriveled at this moment, the abdomen was deeply sunken, and the sparse hair on the head was completely withered and yellow. Countless corpse insects writhed and crawled in and out of its empty eye sockets, nose holes and big mouth.
Their movements were stiff and slow, and when they staggered forward step by step, their bodies were constantly dropping all kinds of black debris of inexplicable material.
Originally, they were just wandering unconsciously in the world of portraits.
But when the empty and incomplete nostrils sniffed a few times, in the familiar air, they smelled the aroma of flesh and blood belonging to living creatures and the warm smell that drove the dead crazy.
The next moment, everything changed!
The mummies suddenly raised their heads to the sky and howled dryly, a stale and foul smell spit out from its mouth.
They stooped suddenly, and rushed towards the apprentice Will with an agility no less than that of a hound. Their movements were lightning fast, and before Will could break free from the shock, they had already rushed in front of him with a gust of terror.
The rapidly rotating white bone shield blocked the pounced mummy back, and then, the bone teeth that were as dense as locusts shot out from Will's hand, beating the mummy around him to rotting flesh and black blood splattering.
But all this can't stop the mummy's desire for human warm flesh and blood.
As the mummies howled more and more intensively, the whole land began to boil and boil. More mummies crawled out from the ground, howling and rushing towards Will's position.
Damn, why so many
Will cursed angrily.
The elemental particles he is compatible with are negative energy, and he follows the bone wizard route. He is no stranger to undead creatures like mummies, even more familiar than other wizard apprentices. If there were only ten or twenty mummies, he could still handle them, but if there were hundreds of mummies, even if he divided them into three parts, he wouldn't be able to resist!
Will kept taking out all kinds of bone tools from his arms to stimulate the negative energy inside, and then threw them into the group of mummies. A moment later, there was an earth-shattering explosion of negative energy. All the mummies involved in the wave of negative energy will be torn apart in an instant, and the remaining soul consciousness in the body will also be washed away, and they will no longer be able to command the dead body to stand up.
He studies negative energy, so he also knows how to kill undead more effectively.
But Will couldn't have too many such powerful bones, so after throwing away four or five, his face turned pale, and his pocket was empty.
Facing the mummy rushing towards him from all directions, Will finally couldn't help hissing and screaming with his distorted face.
And at this moment, the picture frame window in the distance suddenly fluctuated, and then a huge palm protruded in from the outside. This palm is like a girl's small hand suddenly magnified hundreds of times. The skin is fair and delicate, with palm lines and pores on it, and even the freshly applied red nails are clearly visible.
The big hand reached in, crossed the distant portrait space, and appeared directly on the mountain bag, grabbed Will who was trapped in it, and then quickly retracted.
The mummies clustered around Will were unwilling to rest, one by one, growling and grabbing onto the big hand, trying to keep it.
And their actions undoubtedly greatly angered the owner of the "big hand". With a wave of his hand, the world inside the portrait was immediately shattered into pieces, and countless mummies were also shattered together.
After punishing the undead inside, the big hand retracted steadily, and finally disappeared into the wooden frame window.
And in the corridor, while waving the gem of true sight, Alice drove away the hateful spirit that was trying to take the opportunity to attack her, while pulling her right hand out of the portrait on the wall with difficulty.
There was a soft sound.
The arm was pulled out, and the apprentice Will was also pulled out together.
Seeing that the prey in its mouth was rescued, the spirit body was obviously very angry.
Following its ear-piercing scream that tore through the sky, white smoke filled the portrait, and countless mummies frantically rushed towards the exit, looking like they wanted to rush out from inside.
Alice smiled coldly, and shook the True Sight gem, and a series of twisted and weird witchcraft runes appeared in the middle of the wooden framed portrait.
"Amiasa, the dead sleep!"
When Alice quickly recited the secret words of witchcraft, the wooden framed portrait suddenly shone with dazzling white light, and an inexplicable white vortex appeared, sucking the shrieking spirit body into it.
After the white glow dissipated, the wooden framed portrait returned to its original state.
Far away from the mountains and near the water, on the gray-black grassland, on the slightly raised hill, that spirit body is howling angrily...
Finally sealed the opponent again!
Alice turned her head and looked at Warren with a smile: "Hey, big man, if you take another step back and startle the monster sealed in the portrait, I really won't care about you!"
Hua Lun held his right arm in his hand and looked back in amazement, only to realize that he had stepped back again and again just now, and was actually a little closer to a wooden framed portrait on the other wall.
And in that portrait, amidst the turbulent waves, a strange ghost ship is moving fast through the wind and waves.
Although he didn't know what kind of monster was sealed inside, just looking at what happened to Will just now, Warren didn't want to be sucked into it by the portrait.
So he hurried away from that portrait!
It seems that in this corridor, the guardians arranged by Sorcerer Sark are all kinds of monsters in these sealed portraits.
Once you figure out the layout here, the follow-up processing will be much easier.
Every time she advances a certain distance, Alice can find the witchcraft trap when she shines the gem of true sight. And what they need to do is to attack in turn and seal it in advance.
It can be seen that this is the main place where Wizard Sark conducts secret experiments, and the witchcraft traps he has set up are simply dense.
There are monsters sealed in the portraits, warning traps hidden in the candlesticks, and murder mechanisms hidden under the floor...
It is conceivable that when an intruder enters this area, even if it is thousands of miles away, Sorcerer Sark will be able to detect the abnormality here. At that time, he only needs to come back in time to catch the turtle in one urn, and he will be able to block the enemy in the depths of the corridor.
Any witchcraft traps and institutions, groups of witch beasts always need wizards to preside over them.
But now that Sark is dead, no matter how many and tight defenses this laboratory has, it will eventually be breached one day.
So, after a whole night of tossing, they finally arrived at the door of the laboratory at the end of the corridor!
Here, a strange human face protruded from the wooden door.
"Secret language... Please speak the secret language to open it, otherwise you will be refused entry!"
