Chapter 68: Gerald is fooled

Is that...... Some strange spells?

Gerald had noticed that these strange people, who were not afraid of death, would turn to ashes and drift away in the wind after death.

It's just once.

But it happens twice in a row...... Even in the case of different ways of dying, the same effect will occur.

Moreover, their weapons are so consistent. Even the armor is somewhat similar, and everyone seems to be not afraid of death......

This made Gerald's heart tremble, and he couldn't help but feel a little afraid.

Could this be a rare humanoid spell?

It's like the legendary "Three Hundred Horsemen of the Red Knight"?

No, it's not the same......

The reason why [Red Knight's Three Hundred Horsemen] is the top-level spell is that it is composed of three hundred "War Knights" who can slowly recover the number of Silver Rank.

This spell alone is enough to protect a country.

But these people are just ordinary people without rank...... Even if it can be resurrected, it is not a big deal.

Gerald was a little sure in his mind and had a new plan:

That somewhat familiar imposter should be a more senior bronze-level wizard. But at his age, he would have been a transcendent for three or four years at most.

As far as the information gathered so far is concerned, he has four spells: Cold Contact, Wall of Stall, Frost Nova, and Frost Wheel.

He can also have up to two instant spells and one chanting spell.

Chanting spells are not to be feared.

Assuming that he has the most dangerous [Eye of Laziness], then the remaining instant spell will only be able to counter his mind control if it is [Mind Freezing].

But for now, the fighting style of this disabled wizard is more inclined to the fighting style of the Noah's Kingdom - that is, Salvatore's concentration on staking output.

After all, if this imposter was the most traditional disabled wizard of the Duchy of Winter, then he should have an axe or mace in his hand right now......

Use Frost Nova to make others slower than yourself, and use Lazy Eye to make it difficult for enemies at close range to attack and defend; Use the Wall of Stall to stop distant tangible ballistic attacks, and then use Frozen Thoughts to strengthen your will and resist psychic attacks.

Then he walked over and picked up his axe.

Chop.

…… If he was such a disabled wizard, Gerald would definitely run as far as he could.

However, given this person's age and size, it's normal that he isn't good at that kind of wild way of fighting.

Gerald quickly thought about what to do, and looked down at Annan's equipment with his eyes.

He saw the saber at Annan's waist - he could tell at a glance that it was a decorative talisman sword.

No threat.

He also saw the satchel on Annan's waist.

The size of the satchel on Annan's waist obviously can't fit anything...... I guess I was converting the raw materials for Salvatore.

Then it can be like this-

Capture his emotions first, and then detonate the fear in this kid's heart - he, as a bronze transcendent, can't resist his own spells.

Then, at the moment when he was so frightened that it was difficult to use spells to counteract, he raised his head to look at him and used [Manipulating People's Hearts]!

[Manipulating People's Hearts] can't make them kill themselves directly. But they can be controlled to attack each other.

And the whole process is silent...... Salvatore didn't realize that Annan was already under his control, and he couldn't wake him up at the first time.

As Bronze Rank transcendents, their wills should all be relatively tenacious. Gerald thought he couldn't control them for long.

— but Salvatore was very close to him.

Assuming that the control time of [Manipulating People's Hearts] is the same, Annan can effectively control Salvatore by using cold contact to attack Salvatore. Even if you can't seriously injure him, you can interrupt Salvatore's spells, leaving him powerless to resist his own attacks.

At this time, he can deliver a powerful blow to Salvatore, tearing and stripping his soul.

When Salvatore was calm, even three times the power of this blow could only barely seriously injure him, which is why he had declared it before. However, being suddenly backstabbed by his companions, this panic and resentment will greatly increase the power of [Soul Tearing].

The twice power of [Soul Tear] is enough to kill Salvatore in an instant. It can also be fatal at the very least.

In this way, they become a one-on-one duel.

If Salvatore hadn't reacted and woken up Annan in time, Annan wouldn't have even been able to wake up from the state of [manipulating people's hearts].

Salvatore only had to order him to use the Frost Wheel on his guards one more time, this time with all the safety mana...... As a twelve- or thirteen-year-old wizard, he would no longer have any ability to resist.

Even if Salvatore woke him up, it would only be one more round.

Yes, Gerald is so confident.

He is an expert at manipulating emotions and can easily demagogue even without using spells.

- Click.

The second passed.

Gerald's mind was racing, and in the blink of an eye, he thought of a countermeasure, and decided on the line in an instant:

"You ...... Is it immortal? ”

Suddenly, Gerald asked.

He was very convinced.

If you ask this coldly, the other party will definitely have a fear of "your secret has been seen through". Especially when the other party is fighting with him, he will definitely wonder if he has seen through me somewhere, "Is my plan also seen through?" and so on.

Even if that fear is fleeting, it will be clung to by him!

At the same time as he said this, he had already closed his eyes.

This is to hide the effect of the spell in your eyes!

- [Consciousness Capture: Fear]

The dark red light flashed in his eyes, and all fear would turn into bubbles in his eyes...... One poke and it breaks.

Click.

The third second passed without incident.

Gerald shuddered suddenly.

This is......

…… What monsters?

Everyone has fear in their hearts, but it is big or small, sinking or floating.

He couldn't immediately tell what a "bubble" was a sense of fear. The previous plan was just to make the fear that he wanted to detonate float with his words and become the biggest one.

But.

This dignified-looking boy ......

- There was no fear in his heart at all!

It's clean, like a doll.

Not even a single bubble.

Gerald didn't hesitate to switch spells.

- [Consciousness Capture: Anger]

The answer is the same, still no.

His heart was clean and clean, without the slightest emotion.

But in the history of mankind, there has never been a talent that can completely eliminate feelings.

Gerald shuddered.

His pupils dilated and trembled, as if he realized something.

It's like,

It's like ......

The true God he saw that day was the same as the "Bone Father......

"What the hell are you—"

- What monster?

He opened his eyes suddenly, and looked at Annan in almost despair.

Gerald's heart was filled with inexplicable grief and indignation.

He also ignored the intimidation of the Lazy Eye...... For even if he is controlled by the eye of sloth, it is better than that future.

This little man's "impostor", I don't know which false god is walking in the world...... Even the true God!

It doesn't make sense anymore.

He just wanted to take another look, who the other party was-

- [Consciousness Judgment]!

“…… Hey? ”

Gerald froze.

He had thought that he would see the mysterious nature of the other party, just like when he looked at the real body of the skeleton man that day. The whole spirit is washed away by it, and the will and mind are destroyed and then reshaped.

It's like dying once and then being reborn.

But this time he saw it...... Colors that belong to humanity.

That's the color of feelings.

Incomparably strong, incomparably pure, incomparably passionate feelings-

Excitement, excitement, confidence, love, hope, pleasure, pleasure, pleasure, pleasure, pleasure......

Gerald shuddered, realizing that something was wrong.

Worst!

Fooled!
