After he was out of sight of the halflings, Gavin directly opened his energy dragon wings and vibrated his wings to speed up while running. This half-running and half-gliding way of traveling is faster than running or flying. It took Gavin just over two minutes to travel two kilometers. When he arrived, the dog demon was leading the wild wolf pack to besiege the enemy there, but the situation was not optimistic. There were already six or seven wild wolves, lying dead on the spot. The death was very strange. There was no scar on the body, but the body was extremely shriveled, almost like a dehydrated corpse. Not to mention that the wild wolves were a little hesitant, even the dog demon was a little helpless, circling around the enemy, scratching one or two claws from time to time, but the effect was very unsatisfactory, and the strongest innate ability of gnawing was useless. Because this time, the enemy they faced was a bit special. The enemy was not one or two, but a group - a group of field mice.
A group of voles is not scary. Those wild wolves are experts at catching mice. Even if there are thousands of them, they are not enough for these wild wolves to tear and beat. But if this group of voles becomes a group of ghosts, the situation will be different. Floating Spirit Group Ultra-small Undead Creature (Incorporeal, Cluster) Life Force: 114 (Hit Dice: 12D12+24) Attributes: Strength -, Agility 18, Constitution -, Intelligence 2, Perception 11, Charisma 18 Special Ability: Strength Damage (Special Ability) - Creatures wrapped and swallowed by the floating spirit group will have their life force extracted, and will die after their strength is reduced to zero. Disturb the Mind (Special Ability) - Any creature wrapped, swallowed, and locked by the floating spirit group will have its mind greatly disturbed, making it difficult to concentrate and break free. Characteristics: Half the damage of slashing and piercing, characteristics of incorporeal creatures, characteristics of clustered creatures, and characteristics of undead creatures. These vole ghosts have become clustered creatures and have their own names. As mentioned before, in Faerun, death is not the end, but a new beginning. Even for inconspicuous and weak creatures like voles, this is true. Gavin and his team hunted rabbits and killed rats on a large scale in the vineyard. As a result, a large number of tiny creature ghosts were generated in a short period of time. When these ghosts gathered together, they would give birth to floating spirits. Especially since the negative energy in Vizeme Manor was so strong that even the surroundings were affected, it was more likely to cause supernatural phenomena or ghost events. Although the floating spirits were not very intelligent, they had unforgettable memories of the people who killed them at the beginning - the wild wolves. Squeaking strangely, they tried to pounce on the wild wolves. This kind of rat cry is of psychic nature, which is directly transmitted to the human soul, making people feel irritable and even slow down their actions. Especially those wild wolves that were locked looked like sleepwalking.
The floating spirits immediately took the opportunity to pounce on them and drag them into the ghost rat group. Those ghost rats bit the wolf desperately, but there was no trace of injury. However, the bitten wolf howled desperately and painfully, as if something was bitten off its body, and its body shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye. Gavin rushed up, without thinking, took out the revolver hand cannon and shot at the floating spirit group and the wrapped wolf. In the deafening roar. The somewhat shrunken wolf was directly blown in half, and the broken meat flew all over the sky, but there was not much blood. It was obviously sucked out by the floating spirit group. In the case of double shots, seven or eight ghost rats were blown to pieces on the spot. The killing effect was really a bit hehe. There were hundreds of ghost rats in the floating spirit group. According to this killing ratio. It would be difficult to kill it without dozens of shots. But the problem is that Gavin only has five bullets in his revolver cannon. He has quite a few mind bullets, but the problem is that the killing effect is even lower. Although this kind of swarm has collective intelligence, it is not simply considered an individual when facing an attack. A mind bullet can kill a ghost rat at best. Gavin's shot was like poking a hornet's nest. The floating spirit swarm chirped, locked their hatred on him, and rushed over aggressively. After becoming their locked target, he realized how annoying their ability to disturb the mind was. It was like countless mice, constantly gnawing at his skull and eardrums in his mind, making him upset and extremely irritable. Crystal swarm. Gavin took out his best group attack ability. The overwhelming astral fragments shot towards the floating spirit swarm in an arc. The crystal swarm, which has always been extremely powerful against swarm creatures, shot alone this time. Most of the astral fragments passed directly through the floating spirit swarm. Although this skill is a superpower, it belongs to the creative superpower. It materializes the astral matter. The attack is no longer of psychic nature, but of material. Naturally, the effect is greatly reduced against spirits. Physical attacks against psychic creatures have at least a 50% chance of failure. Because all spirit creatures are not simply in the material space, but also in the etheric space. The two are constantly switching and flashing, but the frequency is too fast for ordinary people to see. After discovering that the strongest group attack is ineffective, Gavin flapped his wings and flew high, trying to avoid the attack of the floating spirit group.
Unexpectedly, this group of ghost mice chased him in the void. They are a group of ghosts. Their mode of movement is not running, but flying. Running is just following their instinct in life. Fortunately, the running speed of these ghost mice is not very fast, at least there is no way to catch up with Gavin. "Here." The young priest's crisp greeting came from the direction of the manor. Not only her, but Black Heather also rushed out after hearing the news. After Anna saw that Gavin's attention had been attracted, she did not continue running forward, but quickly began to arrange the battlefield. While reciting the incantation, he poured holy water and silver sand in front of him, and a divine power suddenly enveloped the area. Second Ring Divine Art Reverence Art. In this, part of the power of undead creatures can be suppressed and the possibility of dispersal increases. Gavin led the floating spirits to run over here. To deal with undead creatures, it is the professional counterpart of the holy priest who believes in the good god. When reaching the edge of reverence. The floating spirit group suddenly stopped pursuing. Although they have no intelligence, they still retain the biological instinct of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages. When they sense danger, they override their urge for revenge. He turned around and wanted to find trouble with those wild wolves again. "I want to leave." Gavin was not willing to let them go so easily and directly pulled the trigger. There was another roar. Physical attacks and psychic bullets shattered five or six ghost rats. At the same time, it also completely angered the floating spirit group and rushed forward regardless. The young priest, who had been prepared for a long time, held the moonstone holy symbol tightly and said loudly: "I respect the sacred will of Ilmat, and the unclean existence returns to death." Holy energy shot out from the moonstone holy symbol and enveloped the floating spirit group. That situation is like spring snow meeting the scorching sun. Another example is pouring a ladle of cold water into a hot oil pan. The black smoke-emitting floating spirits that were already eroded by the sacred power brought by the reverence technique boiled. Countless black mist emerged and dissipated on the spot. The floating spirits rushed quickly, as if they wanted to escape from the scope of the holy light rays. But they seemed to be frozen, no matter how they ran, they would always spin in place.
The floating spirit group shrinks at a speed visible to the naked eye. When they found that there was no way to avoid it, the floating spirit group adjusted new tactics. Countless ghost rats compressed inward crazily and turned into a floating spirit group ball, using the ghost rats outside to block the holy light rays as much as possible. Only by completely consuming those outside can we attack those inside. This is a true war of attrition. Unexpectedly, these floating spirit groups used their instincts to find Anna's biggest weakness - her professional level was too low and the sacred energy she guided was too weak. After the sacred energy guided by Anna was consumed, most of the floating spirit group was still left. The sacred energy guided by Anna weakened slightly, and the floating spirit group compressed into a ball on the other side suddenly expanded, making annoying noises and rushing toward Anna menacingly. A pair that would never give Anna a second chance to dispel the undead. boom! boom! boom! Gavin ignored the consumption and blasted out all three remaining ghost bullets. He tried his best to prevent the floating spirits from rushing forward. He stood with the Crown Shield on his chest. If necessary, he would stand in front of the young priest to protect himself. She buys some time. But after just seeing the strange attack methods of the floating spirit group, the Crown Shield is more of a self-consolation. What they attack is not the body at all, but directly tearing apart people's souls. The absolute defense of the Crown Shield is unlikely to be effective against them. Just when the floating spirit group immediately bumped into Gavin, another shout came, "In the name of Qiyalansari, the Lord of Immortality and Vengeance, I order you to obey my orders." Unlike Anna's divine power. This scolding was filled with endless negative energy. Compared to Anna's bonus of channeling positive energy. This negative energy has been significantly suppressed by the reverence technique. Positive and negative energy clash fiercely in the air. This negative energy is powerful enough, so powerful that even if it is suppressed by the reverence technique, most of it can still fall on the floating spirit group, and it can still suppress it. In Vizeme Manor, there is only one person with this ability - Daphne, the priest of the Immortal Nemesis and the drow prisoner. This evil priest is good at manipulating the undead and the power of revenge. What he is proficient in is not to guide holy energy and disperse or destroy undead creatures, but to rebuke and command undead creatures and guide negative energy. Therefore, after turning into a ghost creature, not only did it not affect her abilities, but it actually had a bonus, especially in channeling negative energy, because she itself is composed of negative energy. But no undead is willing to succumb to others, not even the swarm of this weak ghost. They are frantically fighting left and right, trying to get rid of the negative energy constraints. Snapped! There was a huge whip crack. The huge vine whip hit the floating spirit group directly. It is also a physical attack.
The effect of this whip is beyond imagination. With one whip, dozens of ghost rats were killed. Black Heather gave a gentle tug. The vine whip turned a strange corner, whipped back with a snap, and whipped the floating spirit group again. Black Heather took advantage of the situation and shook it. The vine whip immediately trembled, and the inertia of the pullback and the shaking force met in the middle of the vine whip. With another snap, all the power was released to the floating spirit group. One whip and three cracks. Nearly a hundred ghost rats were directly killed, and the remaining ghost rats trembled involuntarily under the cover of a strange energy. This is the ability of the touch of pain. The painful attack of the touch of pain originally came from the soul and was a specific attack. Even the spirits could not escape, or it was more serious because they had no physical protection. The touch of pain and the black heather are indeed a perfect match. However, this whip skill of three cracks was not passed on to him by Gavin. He had never played with this kind of strange weapon. It came from the drow soul prisoner Daphne, who was an expert in this area. To be more precise, most drow priestesses are masters in this area - this is a necessary skill, used to abuse various slaves. After being weakened one after another, the floating spirit group had no way to fight against the negative energy guided by the evil ghost priest Daphne, and was forcibly controlled by her. However, the controlled floating spirit group was much weaker, from twelve life dice to nine. This is the inherent characteristic of swarm creatures. Their strength level is not fixed, but fluctuates with the number of swarms. Conversely, if its strength had not been reduced, Daphne would not be able to control it. Before everyone could catch their breath. The other side heard the angry roar of the dog demon: "Quick, quick, quick, there is another one here."
