The ability to control ghosts and the ability to control corpses, to some extent, are two very similar abilities that can both play a role in control. It is precisely because of this characteristic that the two abilities merged in Gray, forming a The third mixing ability.
He now wants to test this third hybrid ability.
Walking through the woods, Gray looked for creatures suitable for testing to test the third hybrid ability.
A monkey-shaped blood beast with a length of more than one meter and green fur found Gray and immediately attacked Gray.
This is the ferocious blood beast Wood Monkey, which can manipulate plants and turn them into its own means of attack.
Several plant branches grew rapidly and attacked Gray. However, just when these plant branches were about to attack Gray, they suddenly stopped and instead attacked the wooden monkey. In the end, the wooden monkey was completely tied up. stand up.
Obtained from the ability of the mad-level blood beast Jasper Lizard, Gray often uses the feedback ability, but the plant ability has not been used for a long time.
Although it was abandoned by Gray, it was still a mad-level ability after all. It was a full level stronger than the ferocious-level wooden monkey, and it could easily take away the control of plants.
Walking to the wooden monkey that was tightly bound by the vines, Gray drew his sword and stabbed it through the heart of the wooden monkey.
Bright red blood flowed out, dyeing the vines that bound the wooden monkey red. The wooden monkey struggled slightly and then stopped moving.
Gray stretched out his hand to check the wooden monkey's breathing, and after confirming that it was indeed dead, he put one hand on the wooden monkey's head and used the newly acquired third hybrid ability.
Uh-huh!
In addition to the few plants that bound the wooden monkey, a large amount of green light floated out from other surrounding plants, gathered towards the wooden monkey, and completely enveloped the wooden monkey.
Under the green light, the wounds on the wood healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After a moment, the green light disappeared, and the injuries on the wooden monkey's body were completely recovered. There was no trace of wounds, only the blood that had not yet dried up.
rustle-
At this moment, the originally dead wooden monkey opened its eyes and twisted its body, making the vine branches and leaves wrapped around it make a rustling sound.
From this point of view, the ability that is a mixture of ghost ability, corpse control ability, and feedback ability can also control the corpses of dead creatures, but this is obviously not all of this mixed ability.
Gray stretched out his hand to touch the wooden monkey, and a slight temperature was transmitted to his hand. Then he probed the wooden monkey's snout, and he felt an obvious breathing sound.
"This wooden monkey is alive!"
The temperature felt in the hands and the breathing sound felt at the wooden monkey's nose all proved that the wooden monkey in front of him was alive.
The wooden monkey, which was dead a few minutes ago, came to life under Gray's new hybrid ability.
Jiji—
Gray let go of the control of the vines wrapped around the wooden monkey. The next moment, the vines wrapped around the wooden monkey separated automatically, and then the wooden monkey landed lightly on the ground.
This resurrected wooden monkey actually has the same ability to control plants as before.
The only difference is that the wooden monkey who broke free from the vines did not attack Gray. Instead, he felt close to Gray, and Gray could also give him orders in his mind.
"Resurrecting dead creatures. This kind of hybrid ability should be called resurrection ability!"
After learning about the third hybrid ability, Gray showed surprise. He could resurrect dead creatures and have the ability to live. This is a more powerful ability than ghost ability and corpse control ability.
The ghost ability can control the soul of a dead creature and turn it into its own combat power. The corpse control ability can control the body of a dead creature and turn it into its own combat power. However, neither of these two methods can give the creature the power it had in life. Ability.
The ability to resurrect can be used. Creatures resurrected by this ability will have the same abilities as before they were alive. In other words, what kind of fighting power they had before they were alive will also be what kind of fighting power they will have after being resurrected by the resurrection ability. force.
Generally speaking, except for the physical type of blood beast, the combat power of the controlled blood beast corpse cannot be compared with that of the blood beast before death.
But this kind of resurrection ability can avoid this drawback. What kind of combat power you had during life will also be what kind of combat power you have after being resurrected. You can imagine the value of this ability.
"The ghost ability controls the soul, the corpse control ability controls the body, and the feedback ability repairs the body. These three abilities are mixed together to form the resurrection ability!"
Gray marveled at the wonder of mixing abilities. When certain abilities that fit together, new abilities were born, bringing abilities far beyond expectations.
"Strictly speaking, the wooden monkey now is probably not the same wooden monkey as before!"
According to Gray's guess, although the wooden monkey's body has not changed, its soul is no longer the original soul. The original soul has been turned into materials and shaped by the resurrection power into a new soul controlled by Gray.
"Since the soul is used as the raw material to create a new soul, the death time cannot be too long, otherwise the soul will collapse and even the resurrection ability will be useless!"
After thinking about it, Gray took out the corpse of the fox-shaped blood beast he killed a few days ago from the purple ring and tried to use his resurrection ability on it.
As expected, the resurrection ability had no effect on the fox-shaped blood beast. After a few days, the original soul of the fox-shaped blood beast had already disintegrated, and the resurrection ability was naturally of no use.
"The ability to resurrect is definitely an extremely powerful ability, but there should be an upper limit to this ability!"
If there is no upper limit to the resurrection ability, Gray feels that he can be invincible in this world with this ability alone, but Gray knows that the resurrection ability must have an upper limit, and no ability can be infinitely enhanced without restrictions.
After releasing the wooden monkey in the woods with a wooden house, Gray fell asleep and didn't wake up until the afternoon.
In the following days, Gray would go to the night forest every night to look for the ghost of the wild-level blood beast.
After a few days, after releasing the control of the wolf ghost, bird ghost, and tiger blood beast ghost, the number of wild-level blood beast ghosts he controlled reached twenty, and then he found that he could no longer control more ghosts.
Obviously, like the ability to control corpses, the upper limit of the ghost ability is also 20 ghosts of the same realm. Through this, Gray becomes more and more convinced that the resurrection ability should also have an upper limit. This upper limit is probably also 20 ghosts of the same realm.
In a few days, Ellis's wedding ended, and the nobles from all over the country dispersed one after another. Fergus Castle once again returned to its former peace, but there was one more member.
After a few days of busy work, everyone in the Fergus family was just as exhausted as Gray, a man who had trouble with night and day.
After dinner, everyone in the Fergus family had a small gathering. Such gatherings were held almost every night. The purpose was to allow new members to quickly integrate into the Fergus family.
"Security of the castle is a big issue."
Bernal sighed slightly.
This time, in addition to the nobles from Sidney, there were also some nobles from other parts of the Purple Moon Kingdom who came to attend the wedding of Alice.
Because of Gray, the Fergus family has interactions with many kingdom nobles, so there are quite a few kingdom nobles coming this time, and each of them has a high status.
With so many distinguished nobles gathering, safety is naturally the top priority. If an accident occurs, the reputation of the Fergus family in the Purple Moon Kingdom will plummet.
During the process of arranging the guards, he deeply felt the weakness of the Fergus family's guard force. Even if they mobilized the feudal nobles and the Red Wings mercenary group, the strongest ones were only fierce blood warriors, as fragile as a piece of paper.
Fortunately, no accident occurred, otherwise, the Fergus family would have become the target of public criticism.
"It is indeed a problem, but there is nothing we can do about it. The Fergus family's background is still too weak after all."
Lord Fergus frowned.
Although today's Fergus Castle has Gray's powerful combat power, its overall strength is generally low, and this cannot be improved in a short time.
“How about outsourcing?”
Gray said with a thought in his heart.
"Loyalty is an issue when hiring. Moreover, if the hired person is too weak, it will be useless. If the person is too strong, the salary requirements will be high, and the Fergus family may not be able to afford it."
Earl Fergus shook his head and said disapprovingly.
"In terms of salary and loyalty, I have a solution."
Gray said.
With the ability to resurrect, he can go out and catch some "strong men" back without any money and no need to worry about loyalty.
Of course, he will definitely select those who are heinous and vicious among these "strong men" who are arrested, so that he will not feel any psychological burden.
On the second day, next to Fergus Castle, outside the woods that had been designated as a forbidden area, three masked figures appeared quietly.
"Is this the woods?"
one of them asked.
"Well, according to the investigation, he usually practices in this forest during the day."
All three figures had their faces covered, an old man with gray hair said.
"Why not do it at night when his vigilance is lowest?"
the last person asked.
"According to His Highness Nicholas's speculation, the opponent has the ability to control corpses. Controlling a king-level corpse will not reduce vigilance due to night. Night is the time when vigilance is highest. On the contrary, during the day, vigilance may be reduced. "
The gray-haired old man said.
"The monster even has the ability to control corpses."
The other two people, whose faces were covered with cloth, had a hint of horror. They actually had the terrifying ability to control corpses. This Gray Fergus was simply a humanoid monster.
"Let's go, there are silver weapons prepared by the kingdom, he will die this time!"
Puff puff!
The patrolling soldiers were killed before they could make a sound, and the three of them headed deeper into the woods.
