Chapter 491: Encountering a Strong Enemy
Under the caster's control, swaths of undead sped forward, destroying all living creatures in sight, including the remaining slaves and mind flayers, along the way. Kaidong frowned, looked at the gnawed corpses on the ground and asked, "Can these undead really work?" ”
As a paladin, he himself had an aversion to summoning the undead. If it weren't for the fact that the form was forced to do this, I'm afraid I wouldn't have agreed to do it at all. However, the good news is that such summons are temporary, and can only last for a few hours at most, after which they will lose their ability to move due to the depletion of negative energy.
"Of course, nothing is more effective at dealing with Mind Flayers than constructs and undead. But we don't have that many golems and other constructs, so summoning the undead is the only way to go. Henry replied as he accused the mummy he had summoned.
He knew very well that this undead alone was not enough to cause much damage to nearly three hundred Mind Flayers, after all, the psychic ability was not only "Psychic Explosion" and "Psychic Charm", but also many strange attack methods. So at most, it's a surprise attack before the other party finds out, and the final killing move is still up to you.
Kaidong sighed softly, and silently followed the group. The expressions of many paladins were similar to his, especially Celeph, whose eyes were full of disgust, and they wished to directly kill all the undead in front of him.
Seeing these guys, Henry smiled helplessly and shook his head. As a druid, he could feel that so many undead creatures had been summoned. Nature's favor has suddenly decreased a lot. But what can be done? It's a big deal to do more things to protect the balance of nature in the future. Be a traverser. Flexibility is one of the abilities that must be learned.
After all, in his eyes, life is the most important thing, and there is nothing to be desired at all in terms of victory won by sacrifice. Of course, if the sacrifice is someone else or an enemy, that's a different story.
Passing through several rotundas along the narrow passages, Henry finally saw the Mind Flayer gathered not far ahead. He sneered and raised his arm and gestured, and everyone immediately stopped and began to prepare for battle, while the undead sped up. A swarm of bees rushed forward.
A distance of less than a hundred meters is a few seconds for most people to run, not to mention the undead who have been blessed with the "acceleration technique". Due to the erosion of negative energy, they are full of hatred and jealousy towards the living, and as soon as they rush out, they launch an attack on their enemies.
The Mind Flayer didn't expect the deadliest attack to come from behind, and was caught off guard in an instant. Many guys were directly thrown to the ground by ghosts, and they were bitten beyond recognition in a few bites. The mummy is even more incredible, once it is held, it will never be spared. Summoned by the High Priest, the skeletal warrior wields a two-handed greatsword that splits an octopus's head in half in a single blow.
Seeing that the sneak attack had worked, the mages began to chant the incantation as planned, and it didn't take long. A large amount of "Stinky Cloud Technique" mixed with a small amount of "Dead Cloud Technique" suddenly covered a large area of space in front of him. Keep in mind that the undead don't need to breathe, so these two spells are completely ineffective against them.
This time the situation of the Mind Flayer is even worse. Undead creatures that were originally immune to psychic blasts and psychic controls were troublesome enough. Now a large amount of poison gas has been added, and their original plan to transfer back a group of slaves has been completely ruined. Because in this environment, if you transfer it back, you have to be poisoned to the ground immediately.
"It's horrible! I'm feeling a little sympathetic to those monsters. Amon said with a sigh of relief. She had just seen a Mind Flayer who was first smoked to the ground by poisonous gas, and then thrown to the ground by several demons and torn to the ground, turning directly into a pile of minced meat.
Hearing the girl say this, Kaidong couldn't help but smile and shook his head. "Child, your mercy has been given to the wrong person. These evil creatures will eat the brains of intelligent beings as long as they live, and it can be said that each of them carries at least hundreds of innocent lives......"
Before he could finish his words, the battle ahead suddenly changed. I saw a very tall Soul Eater suddenly activate an unknown psychic ability, and a strong air current quickly blew through, blowing all the poisonous gas to the other side at once. Its two eyes shimmered with a faint silver light, which was the expression of the extreme increase of spiritual power.
Henry noticed that the creature had a transparent ball about twelve centimeters in diameter hanging from his neck, and a small piece of brain tissue floating in the fluid inside. There is no doubt that it is the leader of all Mind Flayers, and that transparent orb contains the legendary "Portable Brain Aid". Generally speaking, Mind Flayer who goes out on an important mission will carry one of these things, which usually contains some very important information.
This is a very precious special item, a bit like a memory probe, which can store everything the wearer perceives. Of course, it is only an aid in its own right, and does not have any ability to think. This means that anyone who gets a brain aid can get all the knowledge inside.
Psychic abilities, what coveted abilities. If there is just a record of this information in it, then you can try to train a psychic warlock or a psychic warrior in your own territory, and with some information from the Blind Eye, you should be able to form a unique branch.
It is human nature to explore the unknown, and in this regard, Henry's desire is particularly strong. Seeing that a new research topic appeared in front of him, he could still hold on, and without hesitation, he drew his weapon and rushed forward, heading straight for the Soul Eater who carried the brain.
"I bet! This guy must have found something interesting, otherwise he would definitely not be so positive. After saying that, Sheena followed directly with her weapon. She had been on adventures with Henry for quite some time, and knew when the leader would burst into battle with the greatest zeal.
Kaidon also drew his holy sword, shouting as he ran, "I think he found the leader of the enemy." Don't you see, the Mind Flayer is unusually tall, and has two more tentacles than the normal one. ”
"The god of the dwarfs is above! That's a Eater of Souls! I've heard a cousin from the father of a distant uncle's nephew. This thing especially likes to molest young and beautiful women. The two extra tentacles are proof of that. "Even in battle. Yao En didn't close that either.
"Damn gnomes! If you say that nonsense again, I'll kick you in the ass. Aemon threw out a throwing knife and threatened viciously.
While several of the team members were arguing, Henry had already engaged the Eater of Souls. Just as he was about to activate the ninth-level magic "accidental chain", he suddenly found that a strong suicidal urge had arisen in his brain, and the long knife he was holding in his right hand couldn't help but put it on his neck.
Just as she was about to act, Sheena rushed over and blocked the long knife with her two-handed greatsword and shouted, "You have been affected by the spell!" Hurry up and come to your senses! ”
"Ah!!!!!!h Henry let out a cry of pain, forcibly clearing the thought from his brain. In just a few seconds, his whole body was drenched in sweat. Half of them were because of pain, and the other half were scared. Psychic spells are so terrifying that they can make a legendary mage and legendary druid have suicidal thoughts.
"Be careful! This Eater of Souls has a very high level of Psychic Warlock! Henry gasped for air as he reminded his teammates who had just arrived. He didn't care about controlling the situation at all, and focused all his attention, because this was the most dangerous enemy he had encountered so far, and he had run out of time once a day.
Hearing the warning, the remaining five people quickly surrounded the dangerous enemy in front of them, but none of them took the lead in attacking. Because they were all taken aback by Henry's watch, you must know that as a powerful legendary spellcaster, they are very determined. Even so, it will be affected by strange spells, and if you change to someone else, wouldn't you have no power to resist?
The arrival of his companion bought Henry a few seconds of rest. When I felt that my brain was awake, I immediately shouted, "Go! Don't give it time to cast mind spells! ”
As soon as the words fell, he did not hesitate to activate the "Accidental Chain", "Simulacrum" X3, and the three created clones used the "Accidental Chain" and "Simulacrum" X3 again, and the whole nine clones cooperated with five teammates to attack the target from all directions.
Just as the blade was about to stab at the enemy, suddenly, a voice sounded in everyone's hearts: "Stupid surface man! You don't even know what a mistake you've made! ”
I saw that the Soul Eater's silver-colored eyes suddenly shot out a brilliant light, followed by the six tentacles all held high, and a terrifying psychic power quickly formed around its body about five meters, and then violently erupted. The people and clones who were caught off guard felt like they were smashed into the chest by a sledgehammer, and they all flew out more than ten meters away, spitting blood.
Among them, Yao En, who had no armor, was the most seriously injured, and his entire chest had been deflated, although it was not enough to die, but his ribs must have been broken. As for the others, except for Ammon, who is the son of Baal, who was able to dodge with his superhuman acuity and was able to struggle to his feet, the rest were all incapacitated.
The power of the psychic ability was vividly displayed at this moment, and a well-equipped elite squad with an average level of more than ten could not even catch a move, and they were all put to the ground.
Looking at his teammates lying on the ground and groaning in pain, Henry's face was unprecedentedly solemn, staring closely at the enemy in front of him, while directing the clones to reassemble the encirclement. He knew very well that it was time to show his hole cards, otherwise this guy alone would be able to make this encirclement operation a complete failure.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
PS: The first psychic ability the Eater of Souls used against Henry was the fourth-level "Impulse to Die," a spell that implants a strong suicidal urge into the target's consciousness. The second is a seventh-level "overclocking detonation", which causes mass damage within a radius of about four and a half meters. (To be continued......)
