Chapter 32: Scary water ghost

According to the witch's records, the water ghost's power is only equivalent to normal people, but it is fast and agile, unlike ordinary undead, and because of the characteristics of undead, it is extremely strong at knives, swords and punches. Therefore, normal people encounter water ghosts. Unless luck is extremely high, there is no hope of victory. Even formal warriors who serve the soldiers, one-on-one battle with water ghosts, are mostly failures and deaths.

However, because the water ghost is very afraid of flames and positive energy, and is completely restrained, as long as it is properly arranged, you can also burn them to death with a torch.

Of course, this is the situation where water ghosts are encountered on the ground and by the river. If they are encountered in the water, the water ghosts will greatly improve regardless of their strength, speed, and agility. They can also use the environment to resist the fire. Only positive energy such as the Holy Light Strikes can still be produced without being weakened.

"I'm not ready to find it yet, and he came to the door himself, but there is no magic attacked by fire and positive energy in informal magic! And this water ghost does not look like ordinary water Ghost, at least the power is far better than that! "The bitter thought appeared in Lucian's mind as soon as he saw the water ghost with two pale flames beating in his eyes.

研究 In the study of positive energy, the magician has always been inferior to the priest. The positive energy in the circle of magic attacks the magical "ray of light" only to the extent of informal divine magic, and there is only auxiliary magic such as lightness in informal magic.

In elemental magic, the flames are the most violent and uncontrollable, and they have high requirements on the magician. Therefore, before the formal magic, there is almost no flame magic. The only flame magic is "Little Fire of Marius". The purpose of its appearance It is to help those magical apprentices who have forgotten to bring flintstones so that they cannot ignite for heating and eating hot food in the wild.

In order to deal with water ghosts, the witch is collecting materials and preparing an alchemy item called "flaming glue". At that time, even in water, the "flaming glue" can burn for a while, enough to deal with a few Ordinary water ghost.

Lucien has only just begun to learn magic for only one day. The intention is to quickly become proficient in magic, slowly collect materials, and wait for the success of the "flaming glue" to find the opportunity to go to the Belem River, but now, there is no In preparation, Lucien met a "mutated" water ghost.

According to what Lucian has heard in the past, this is "the plan is not as fast as change!"

"Escape?"

This was the idea that immediately appeared in Lucian's mind, but at this time, the mutant water ghost had eaten the gangster's brain and threw the corpse, leaping violently, and almost fluttered with an afterimage. To the cultist.

Although this cultist was originally a beggar, his body was not strong, he joined the cult within a few days, and was not able to receive the gift of the "god" he believed in, but when the water ghost grabbed his hands, he did not even When it was too late to reach the block, the water ghost directly grabbed the skull and broke his neck.

What an amazing speed! What a terrifying power!

As soon as Lucian saw this scene, the thought of escaping in his head cooled down: "If you do n’t do anything, you may just have escaped, and you will be thrown by this mutant water ghost from behind. . "

"Ah!" The screams of pain of the cult beggars sounded and stopped abruptly.

I was not the first to encounter such a dangerous situation. With the experience of this time, Lucian actually resisted the fear and fear, kept the casting focus, and calmly denied the idea of ​​running away.

"Water ghosts are afraid of flames and positive energy, but it's just early in the morning, and it's a long time before dawn."

而 "I use a flintstone to ignite a torch to attack. With the speed and agility of this water ghost, I can't hit it at all!"

"Informal magic, there is only the flame spell of" Maries's Little Flame ", but it only emits a common flame of five centimeters long on the finger. It also requires close combat to hit the water ghost, and I have not Start to parse and learn this magic. "

Balusian was like an onlooker, faintly watching the picture in front of which the water ghost licked his brain and flung towards Ska, calmly and quickly thinking of various methods, and then ruthlessly rejected one by one.

This is a must-have quality for a great magician!

When Scar saw that cult beggar was caught and her skull was crucified, she seemed to finally wake up from a nightmare. She was extremely scared to make him feel a bit more in her body, and her heartbeat was extremely fast. He got rid of the influence of the mutant aquatic ghost's natural "aura of fear", restored his strength, and ran forward from the paralysis to the hands and feet.

What a pity, the speed of the water ghost was too fast, and Ska ran two steps before being swooped over by the water ghost and grabbed his feet.

"The only magic I can do now is: 'Ring of Control', 'Eye of the Stars', 'Mage's Hand', 'Forbidden Light', 'Acid Splash', 'Frost Ray'."

"The effect of the" Out of Control Loop "is still there, and it doesn't help much to deal with water ghosts whose speed and strength exceed normal people."

"Water ghosts are immune to hypnosis, have dark vision, 'Starry Eyes' and 'Forbidden Light' cannot be used."

Balussian thoughtfully analyzed his strength.

The water ghost lifted Ska, his hands were strong, and the crackling sound of people's heart suddenly sounded. Ska was torn directly into two halves. The heart, intestines, liver, etc., along with the blood, fell to the ground in succession. He The harsh and painful screams echoed in the sewer for a long time.

"'Mage's Hand' combined with 'Out of Control' may be useful against ordinary water ghosts, but this water ghost has too much power."

"'Acid Sputtering' and 'Frost Ray' are acid and ice magic. Water ghosts have a strong resistance ability, and now after a brief recovery, I can use at most two more informal magic."

"Wait, the acid-sputtering material is sulfur. Sulfur is a substance that burns easily and is a component of black powder. And acid-spraying is to make acid by igniting sulfur and compressing nearby water elements. of."

Lucian's brain turned quickly, and he watched calmly as the water ghost raised the half of Ska's head in front of him. The hand that was vacated by throwing away the other half and forced a claw, dug Ska's skull. Tongue stretched out and licked the white, shaking brain.

Within a distance of nearly twenty meters, Lucian had felt the impact of the "aura of fear" of the water ghost, his heartbeat was fast, and fear could not help rising.

However, Lucian forcibly maintained the state of casting focus, continued to analyze the "acid splash" magic he had mastered, and grabbed a mass of sulfur in his right hand:

"Can you interrupt the magic as soon as it is lit and send it out directly with mental energy?"

"Direct interruption, according to the description of the witch, will be affected by the defeat of magic failure, light enough to completely exhaust the mental power, serious enough to lightly hurt the soul, and also to maintain the stability to send the magic out, the wound of the soul It will get worse, and it's possible to become an idiot. "

Kushiro quickly analyzed the magic structure, wanted to send the last one out, skipped the middle part, connected to the front, and his head moved quickly.

Parsing, refactoring, combining, reanalyzing, restructuring, recombining. Even if this is an apprentice-level magic with a very simple structure, it is very difficult for Lucian to reluctantly combine in a short time.

"It's barely okay, but I haven't tried it, and there are likely to be great flaws."

The water ghost nearly 20 meters away had eaten Ska's brain, threw his body aside, and ran towards Lucian, the scary face full of carrion, the stench smell, that was frightening The feeling of rising, all flashed like a slow motion in front of Lucien, very clear.

Balussian continued to calmly look at the water ghosts as if onlookers, restrained the panic and fear in his heart, the fine sand-like sulphur powder slipped a little, and flickered faintly under the fluorescent light.

At the same time, a short, hurried, quirky syllable was emitted from Lucian's mouth, making everything around it feel strange and quiet.

The speed of the water ghost was very fast, just one second, the time when the mantra was finished, started from a standstill and ran to one meter in front of Lucien.

At this time, Lucien just changed the rune in front of "Acid Splash", and the flame appeared.

Suddenly, Lucian immediately forcibly interrupted the casting, and then felt that the brain and soul were hit hard with a hammer, and turned dizzy, his nostrils became hot, and two bloodstreams quickly flowed out.

Can no longer continue the part where the spiritual power sends out the flame!

However, the water claw's claw is approaching Lucien's head!

Balusian knew that this was a critical moment. Seeing that he could not gather the mental power to send out the flame, he simply let go of the mental power control and let the flame expand by itself.

In a kind of slow-motion calmness, Lucian saw a light blue fire wall appearing in front of him, burning the water ghost that rushed in front of him, and burning his own hand.

The burning pain caused Lucien to barely get rid of vertigo, and manipulated the "out-of-control ring" change that had not lost its effect, allowing the pale water ghost's hand to fall in advance, and his body was light, and rolled back sideways. .

The sound of a stabbing lala sounded, Lucian's clothes were torn open a gap very dangerous to avoid the catch of the water ghost.

Kushiro rolled on the ground, approached the dark river and stood up in a hurry, looking at the water ghost at the same time.

The light blue fire wall has disappeared without the maintenance of Lucian's mental power, but the water ghost is just like a body of corpse oil and cadaverine. At this time, it has become a human and burning. Torch of pale green flame.

It waved his hands, instead of chasing Lucian, but stumbled towards the dark river, intending to return to the water.

Lucien was at a loss of mental power at this time, and could no longer perform magic, but he did not flinch, and rushed towards the water ghost with a dagger full of adventure and desperate spirit. Do not kill it while it is still waiting for it to recover ? !!

The flame was worthy of the water ghost's nemesis. It seemed that even his power was being burned, walking very slowly, being chased by Lucian, picking up a dagger and piercing its eyes.

The two pale flames impressed Lucian so much!

As soon as the puppet was stabbed, the water ghost's arm hit him, but Lucian was already prepared, and his speed was much slower, so he barely avoided it and stabbed the dagger again.

One time, two times ... After five full steps, when the water ghost walked to the edge of the martyrdom, less than fifty centimeters from the dark river, the pale flame in his eyes finally extinguished, and his body was burned by the flame. After falling apart, he fell to the ground and there was no movement at all.

After this, Baluchien was afraid and relaxed, panting in a big mouth, and using a dagger to pick out the bones and heads of the water ghosts, and reached into the dark river, so that the brain tissue would not be burned by the flame.

After a short while, the flames on the gangway extinguished, and the water ghost turned into a ash.

But in this ash, there is a glittering thing reflecting the fluorescence.
