The strange music continued to echo, penetrating the ice, and a dark red light ignited in the eyes of the frozen believers of the Curse Sect.
The icicles burst, and the Curse Cult followers broke out of the ice.
Most of the Curse Cult believers lost their lives in Bai Jin's [Snowstorm], but a different force dragged their souls into their bodies.
Under the influence of that special magic, they are now like puppets with life. They retain a certain degree of self-awareness and can control their bodies to a certain extent, but they can never disobey the hands that pull them.
But they don't need to disobey.
It is their long-cherished wish to continue to fight for the cause of the Curse Sect throughout their lives after death.
Some believers even secretly felt sorry for surviving.
[Concerto of the Dead] is a magic that controls the dead to fight, but the [Praise] people don't like this skill very much.
Every believer is an important resource in the Curse Cult.
Many actions, such as recruiting Protestants and preparing supplies, require real people to do it.
Important believers died in battle, and it was helpless to force their dead bodies to fight.
The bard is not a soul master, and can only allow his believers to maintain a certain degree of self when they die for the first time. After that, the dead will become zombies and gradually decay.
The bards are responsible for gathering intelligence for the [Curse Cult] and it is impossible for them to spend time maintaining the bodies of these dead people.
The dead believers will return to dust forever after this battle. At most, they will leave behind their souls for the use of the soul controllers.
The bards felt extremely sorry. Even though they had bestowed many blessings on their believers, they were ultimately unable to keep all of them alive.
The bards can only make the best use of their resources to mobilize these zombies and launch attacks in an attempt to reverse the situation.
The members of the cursed sect who broke free from the ice, whether they were living dead or not, all roared and pounced towards Yang Yu and his group with their fangs and claws.
The giant black shark approaching Iyas seemed to be summoned by something. One head split into two, and the two heads split into four. The size was decreasing exponentially, but the number was increasing rapidly.
Since quality is not good, they plan to win by quantity.
However, what was waiting for them was the electric magic released by Bai Jin when he inserted his staff into the ground.
Blown by Bai Jin's [Snowstorm], how could these dark shadows withstand Bai Jin's powerful electric magic? They instantly turned into black smoke.
These suicidal attacks are not meaningless, they are covering the attack of the living dead.
The zombies attacked, but Yang Yu was not in a hurry. He easily blocked Jasmine's giant sword and tried to persuade Jasmine again:
"As expected of a curse sect, you actually have such a skill, but you are already at the end of your strength. I ask you again, do you want to surrender?"
Facing Yang Yu's "contempt", Jasmine became even more annoyed, and once again engaged Yang Yu in a fierce clash with the giant sword in her hand.
"No matter how many times I tell you, I will not change my beliefs, and you will never get any information from the dwarves from me."
"Then there's no way."
Yang Yu's body flashed, and the huge sword swept past him, bombarding up waves of gravel.
Jasmine used [Taunt], and an invisible force pulled Yang Yu's body towards Jasmine.
Twisting her body, Jasmine let Yang Yu's attack hit her armor hard. Then, she raised the giant sword and smashed it hard on Yang Yu's head.
Jasmine had never expected that at this moment, patches of thorns would rapidly grow out from the cracks in the rubble.
These thorns did not immediately coil around Jasmine's body, but instead intertwined with each other in mid-air, weaving into a tough rope.
As the saying goes, one chopstick can be broken, but ten chopsticks cannot be broken.
After the skill [Binding of Thorns] was strengthened, Yang Yu became more and more adept at manipulating the created thorns.
He spent a lot of time and consciously trained Thorn.
There is a limit to the amount of tension that a single thorn can withstand, but if multiple thorns are woven together like hemp ropes, they will produce unimaginable strong toughness.
Unfortunately, in order to weave the growing thorns together, you need to concentrate extremely hard, and there is a limit to the number of thorns that can grow in one area.
Now, weaving such a rope is already Yang Yu’s limit.
But this thick thorn rope was woven together according to the method recorded in the Library of All Things. This rope has unimaginable toughness. Even a strong master like the Blood Lion may need several seconds to completely untie this thorn rope.
There are disadvantages as well. It takes time to wrap all the thorns into a ball. When all the thorns are tied together, it will also affect the speed of the thorns launch, and they will be avoided by others if you are not careful.
When facing an agile opponent, the ordinary [Binding of Thorns. Modified] is more practical and convenient.
For this moment, Yang Yu had already calculated the timing of releasing [Binding of Thorns. Modified].
In e-sports competitions, the time when players are most relaxed is the last few seconds when their life-saving skills are about to cool down.
Countless people often think that as long as they have life-saving skills, they can escape or kill the enemy. However, they don’t realize that this mentality of theirs can be exploited by others, causing them to lose their advantages.
Yang Yu specifically aimed at Jasmine's [Rapid Charge] which still had a few seconds of cooldown time, and released [Thorn Binding. Modified]. Before that, he also distracted Jasmine with words.
By the time Jasmine discovered the thick and tough rope, it was too late. The heavily armored soldier had no way to avoid Yang Yu's thorny rope at such a close distance.
The thorny rope wrapped around Jasmine's arm like a thorny python. With a force, the trajectory of the giant sword that Jasmine swung towards Yang Yu actually shifted.
Yang Yu didn't move, letting Jasmine's giant sword sweep across his body, cutting off a hair or two.
The tough thorn rope then wrapped around Jasmine's waist, wrapped around her thighs, and finally pierced into the ground, making Jasmine unable to move and exposing all her flaws.
"hateful!"
Just when Jasmine thought that Yang Yu wanted to launch another fierce attack to take her life, Yang Yu used [Protective Charge] to stand on top of He Meng's head, which had turned into a city wall.
"Switch your opponents." Yang Yu simply shouted to Bai Jin and the others, and then gave an order to He Meng, "He Meng, conjure up a slingshot."
"Here it comes again." Hearing Yang Yu say this, He Meng muttered in his heart, but still followed Yang Yu's request. His body shape changed instantly, and the top of his head sunken, leaving an area. An elastic leather belt was placed in the center of this area.
In order for Yang Yu to be ejected smoothly, He Meng also made a long launch belt for Yang Yu.
Yang Yu stepped back quickly, instantly tightening the belt behind him and gathering strength.
"He Meng, adjust the trajectory."
He Meng maintained the area where Yang Yu was located and aimed the slingshot at the attacking believers of the Curse Sect.
As his feet loosened, Yang Yu was catapulted out like a cannonball by the huge slingshot at an unimaginable speed.
