Yu Yi's statement is naturally very reasonable.
No matter what the evil spirit is thinking, everyone just needs to act at their own pace.
There are not people in the world whose wisdom is as deep as the sea. They can deduce the enemy's overall plan from a few clues and come up with targeted ways to break the situation, but this group of people is definitely not the same.
Since you are not a god, then just use mortal methods to solve problems.
The way for ordinary people is to play it slow and steady, and do whatever you have to do.
After everyone agreed, they moved on.
About the time they discovered they were coming, the cry heard by the priest became much clearer. After a while, the ranger and mage also heard it. After a while, even the knight and warrior heard it.
"It's so annoying to cry!" the soldier muttered dissatisfiedly, "it sounds very disturbing!"
"Is there someone in danger and needs help?" The knight listened for a while and said worriedly, "Let's go take a look."
"Boss, how could there be anyone in need of help here?" the ranger sighed, "Look at the ground. Apart from the footprints we left, are there any traces of other people's walking?"
The knight looked at it carefully for a moment and shook his head.
"That's right. Judging from our footprints, no one has been to this place for at least two or three months." The ranger said, "Suppose someone is really imprisoned here without food or water for two or three months. He must have been dead long ago."
"Even if I don't die, I still don't have the strength to cry so loudly." The soldier added.
"Maybe there are dry food and water tanks where she is being held..." the knight guessed.
"Captain, please don't be stupid. Who prepares dry food and water tanks for prisoners? Do you think this is a secluded practice for a priest?" Even the priest couldn't help but laugh.
The knight thought for a while and found that this idea was unreliable. He couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head.
"Sorry, when I hear other people crying and sad, I can't help but want to help..."
"There's nothing to be sorry for." The soldier smiled and patted his shoulder. "Just because you are such a person, I put down my hoe, picked up my weapon, and went out on adventures with you."
"Yes, Captain, you are a good person. This is something you can do no matter where you are, with your head held high. There is nothing to be sorry for." Yui also nodded in agreement.
No matter where you are, good people always gain more trust and support from everyone.
After a small interlude, everyone continued to move according to the established plan. At first, the direction was the same as the direction where the crying came from, but it soon deviated.
If you listened carefully, you could roughly tell that the crying was coming from a room in the middle of the third floor, but they were searching leisurely on the second floor without any intention of going upstairs to save anyone.
Perhaps the evil spirit was also anxious, so the crying became strange and strange, and its direction also changed.
"Huh? The direction of the crying has changed." The ranger is the most sensitive to direction. She frowned and immediately discovered this and hurriedly told everyone.
"Don't worry about it." Yui sneered, "No matter what tricks that guy is playing, he just wants to trick us into getting there. As long as we don't get over, there's nothing he can do!"
"But... that crying sound is slowly approaching us!" the ranger said worriedly, "it is slowly approaching the direction above our heads."
Yui frowned and looked up at the ceiling above his head.
Evil spirits are a type of incorporeal creature, and incorporeal creatures are able to penetrate ordinary physical obstacles—ceilings are naturally among them.
Could it be... that the evil spirit wants to attack from above everyone's heads
She thought about it for a moment and shook her head secretly.
This is unreasonable. If the evil spirit really dared to attack them head-on, there would be no need to wait until now.
She didn't know that in the original history, the adventurers were attacked by evil spirits roughly at their current location.
This place is almost located in the center of the entire castle, and there is not enough light, especially the side of the window that is blocked by the tower, so no sunlight can come in.
For evil spirits, if they want to fight during the day, this is almost the most suitable place.
Yui didn't know this, but she made a decision quickly.
"Retreat!" she said loudly, "No matter what the reason is, retreat first! Safety first!"
Everyone turned around and ran away without hesitation. The evil spirit never expected that this group of adventurers would run so decisively and could not catch up. Before they could reach them, they had already retreated to the stairs. Run to the lobby on the ground floor.
Seeing that they were about to run away, the evil spirit's heart was suddenly filled with anger. It made a sharp scream and activated its special ability without thinking about anything else.
Fantasy!
At this moment, the ranger was running in front, and was about to go down the stairs, but she found that her eyes were blurred, and the surrounding scenery suddenly changed. The stairs in front of her were no longer the stairs leading to the bottom, but turned into a very luxurious guest room. , the door of the guest room was ajar, and a woman's cry came from inside.
"What's going on?" She was shocked and didn't dare to push the door rashly. She hurriedly backed away, but she bumped into the pastor.
The priest was not hit originally, but he never expected that the ranger would suddenly retreat and hit him. He was a little distracted by the collision, and he was also hit immediately.
Following closely behind is the warrior. His mental strength is not high, so he is naturally unavoidable.
The knight held on a little longer, but it didn't last long. When he saw everyone in front of him stopping, he couldn't help but feel a little confused. Just when he was confused, he was also hit.
In the illusion, the four of them found themselves alone, at a loss when facing the luxurious room where strange crying sounds came from.
This is the evil spirit's most powerful ability, creating an illusion and pulling the enemy into the illusion. As long as the enemy is violently stimulated and shaken mentally in the illusion, he will suffer heavy damage, and may even find a flaw in his heart and be directly possessed by it.
As the four people were attacked one after another, a transparent gray-white figure slowly fell from the ceiling not far away, watching here coldly.
But it didn't rush forward because there was another person here who didn't get hit.
Yu Yi looked around cautiously, not daring to be careless. Although she was not pulled into the illusion, she clearly felt the spiritual attack from the evil spirit. When I saw that my companions had stopped, their eyes became dull, and they didn't understand what was happening!
Feeling the killing intent coming from behind, she slowly turned around and saw the evil spirit staring coldly at her.
"It's crazy that you dare to come out in broad daylight." She sneered and said without fear.
Naturally, the evil spirit would not chat with her. It let out a low roar, trying to scare the girl who had not been pulled into the illusion.
What answered it was the white light emitting from Yuimo's palm.
Trick, freeze ray.
The power of this spell is very small. It can freeze a tea cup, or make an ordinary person who lacks exercise shiver violently and feel cold all over. If hit two or three times in succession, an ordinary person could be knocked down or even killed.
But for evil spirits, its power is not enough. If you want to knock down an evil spirit with this spell, it is absolutely impossible without twenty or thirty blows.
However, this wand can only cast spells five times in total.
Unfortunately, the evil spirit does not know this. It only knows that it has been attacked, and although the attack is not very powerful, it can really hurt itself.
So it suddenly became frightened and angry, let out a crazy roar, and pounced on Yui.
(This is what you’ve been waiting for!)
Yu Yi was not nervous at all and took off the pair of locust wood swords hanging from her waist. At the same time, she recited a spell in her mouth.
Super magic skills, combat spells.
This ability is definitely not something that a trainee mage can perform. In fact, without special training, even many high-level mage cannot cast spells while fighting.
This skill is one of the "Magic Cannon"'s best skills. As an extreme combat mage who needs to gallop, fight and cast spells at the same time, the Magic Cannon has perfected the "combat casting" ability of ordinary mages, and even derived from it. They developed a special meta-magic skill that allowed them to punch, kick, and dagger their enemies while still casting spells smoothly without any delay.
As a disciple of Ferrex, the most outstanding magic artilleryman in the world today, Yui has of course also learned the special skill of magic artilleryman, combat casting. And... she studied very well.
More complex spells are of course impossible, but if it's just a low-level flash spell, that's fine.
Seeing that the girl and the evil spirit were about to fight together, she suddenly shouted and flashed her right hand.
The evil spirit never dreamed that there was such a mage. He was immediately caught in the attack and was dazzled by the bright light. He unknowingly let go of the illusion and untied the four adventurers.
In the next moment, the strong-willed priest was the first to break free from the illusion. His eyes became clear again, and he heard the sounds of Yui and the evil spirit fighting.
Without thinking about it, he immediately raised the Holy Emblem of the Goddess of Luck, activated the priest's special skill, and dispersed it.
The priest's "dispel" can theoretically dispel many things, from monsters to various negative spells, and even bad luck in life may be dispelled. But for this trainee priest, his dispersal had only one effect.
Drive away the undead.
The golden light suddenly lit up, formed into a circle, and spread around, covering Yu Yi and the evil spirits who were fighting.
A puff of white smoke suddenly rose from the evil spirit's body, and it roared angrily.
This "dispersion" did not cause much harm to it, but made it even angrier.
However, at the same time, the power of dispersion also allowed the other three companions to completely break away from the illusion and regain their consciousness.
Without saying a word, the ranger took out the bottle of holy water - because she might have to pour it on the head of the evil spirit, this bottle of holy water was given to her who was best at throwing - and rushed towards the evil spirit.
She knew that the power of this thing was limited, so she had to make sure it was poured properly.
The warriors and knights did not need to explain, and rushed towards the evil spirit left and right, using their bodies to restrict its movements. On the one hand, they were to rescue the mage who looked dangerous, and on the other hand, they were also trying to get a suitable attack position for the ranger.
This is a strategy that has been discussed in advance. Everyone even rehearsed it several times this morning to ensure that this set of attacks can work well together and be effective in one blow.
It turns out that training beforehand is really useful.
The evil spirit was flanked by two people. Even though their attacks were supposed to have no effect on it, the two took out the pendant that could slightly defend against mental attacks and used it as a weapon to hit the evil spirit.
The pendant exuded the evil spirit's disgusting aura, which made it relax a little.
At this moment, the ranger rushed in front of him, uncorked the bottle of holy water, and poured almost the entire bottle of holy water on it.
