Chapter 122 Countermeasures
Chapter 122 Countermeasures
The appearance of the Blood Mage alerted the surrounding cities, but the Blood Mage was few in number and acted quickly, and before their true identity was discovered, too many people had already been killed by them.
The girl was worried about her parents who were busy working in the fields, so she begged him to bring her parents to the city, and he naturally had no reason to refuse. For safety reasons, the two decided to go together and brought a team of 100 people to escort them.
But it was too late. When the two arrived at the girl's hometown, the wreckage in front of her made her collapse. She cried and ran to her home, but there was no one at home.
He felt the same way about his wife's experience, and looking at the wreckage around him, he felt that it was his responsibility. He felt that if he had not ignored his wife's parents' reluctance to move to the city when they got married, and had forced them to move to the city, this would definitely not have happened.
In the days that followed, the girl cried all day long. He was also very depressed. But the person was dead, so he could only turn his sadness into anger and vent it on the blood mage.
The Blood Mage's movements became faster and more frenzied. Soon, the soldiers who were chasing him ran into him.
But the strength of the blood mage shocked them all. He was clearly ahead in level and numbers, but his terrifying control, coupled with his desperate recovery ability, caused all the soldiers to collapse.
What made them even more uncomfortable was that many people, attracted by the blood mage's power, voluntarily became his blood slaves. They were enslaved by the blood mage, but they could gain some ability to control blood, and then use this power to bully weaker people.
Angry, absolutely angry!
When the news of the blood mage spread, the surrounding countries spontaneously led soldiers to encircle and suppress him, and the Adventurer's Association also set the task of defeating the blood mage and his servants as S-level. (At that time, Wanxiang College had not yet been established)
Finally, with the help of many people, the blood mage's growth momentum was finally curbed. During the repeated sieges, everyone discovered this strange dead forest and the castle with a gloomy atmosphere. The final battle also began.
It was a world-shaking battle. The enemy had only ten blood mages and a hundred blood slaves, while they had nearly 100,000 people.
But even so, under that terrifying recovery ability, they lost tens of thousands of people, and finally buried their bones in this dead forest. Influenced by the dark aura of the ancient castle, they turned into the appearance they hated the most and hunted their former compatriots.
He also died in that war, but he died voluntarily because his wife had committed suicide out of grief when they were hunting down the Blood Mage. He swore at that time that he would never reconcile with the Blood Mage for the rest of his life.
After the war, all the blood mages died, and he failed to persuade other armies to destroy this place. So he committed suicide with some regrets.
When he woke up again, he appeared in this underground palace. He had already turned into a ghost. Over the years, he devoured the souls of all the dead in the war, which made him gradually stronger.
He wanted to get out, to take people to the underground palace and have them destroy it, because this place gave him a very bad feeling, and he was worried that the blood mage would come back to life.
But the blood mage is very powerful, and his abilities are even more bizarre. In addition to attacking and recovering through blood, he also seems to be proficient in using fear to control the enemy.
That's why he chooses his targets in a scary way. Because he is powerful, and after absorbing so many souls, his mental attacks can awaken the fear deep in the enemy's heart. And correspondingly, if one can overcome what he fears the most, then he can definitely overcome the fear brought by the blood mage.
The story ends here. The ghost in front of him stopped his speech and just looked at the five people quietly, as if waiting for their response.
As for Mo Fan? The story was indeed touching, and the Blood Mage's actions were infuriating. But among the five people, except for Lian and Lan Kexin, whose emotions fluctuated greatly, the expressions of the other three did not change much.
Lian could understand it. After all, she was just a simple elf, the kind of little angel who would quietly protect Mo Fan.
Lan Kexin is a simple person who likes to speak directly. Although she likes to play some pranks, she always knows when to stop. As for the sarcastic tone when talking to Mo Fan, Mo Fan thinks it is probably taught by Chenxi...
Chenxi didn't change much because she came from the church headquarters. She knew about the disaster. She couldn't find fault with the story told by the ghost in front of her. After all, who would record the story of each warrior? The church records only mentioned the blood mage's fighting style, blood slaves, and some information about the blood mage.
As for the knight, it was unclear what she was thinking. After all, she was wearing a knight's helmet and her face couldn't even be seen. No wonder Mo Fan mistook her for a man when he first saw her.
Mo Fan was very direct. After being reborn in another world, Mo Fan still kept the good habits of his previous life. That is to think of the worst of most things. There is no harm anyway, just be prepared.
So, Mo Fan made two assumptions about whether the ghost's story was true or not. If it was true, then the ghost would teach them to destroy this place. But if it was false, what would he do? Mo Fan was not sure, but he guessed that in order to prevent them from getting suspicious, he would still teach them to destroy this place. But this destruction must be something that he could gain, or even be extremely beneficial.
So what good can a ghost do? Resurrection! There is no doubt that any intelligent ghost's long-cherished wish is to be resurrected, without exception. Unless they are the kind of extremely good people who dedicate themselves to the world, they may choose to leave some inheritance or information and then leave.
But is this person in front of me a good person? Obviously not!
So if you think positively, this place is destroyed, the ghost in front of you is dead, and everyone is happy.
Thinking of the worst, this place is ruined, and the ghost in front of him might take advantage of the chaos to seize the body, after all, Chenxi just said that. So if it is to seize the body, who among the five people is the most suitable for him? Without a doubt, Mo Fan!
A cruel blood mage like this is basically inseparable from the dark element. Even in the records, blood mages can use dark magic, which can be restrained by light magic. So Mo Fan will definitely be his first choice.
So the question is, Mo Fan had trained with Master Meng before, and his mental defense has greatly improved. And his father also gave him a necklace to protect the soul, and three scrolls to divert mental attacks.
Is he afraid? Well, a little bit...
