At night, the dark night covers the earth, the brilliant stars dot the night sky, and the evening wind blows through the forest, blowing a pleasant rustling sound.
At Chenming Private Hospital, the intensive care room is still brightly lit.
"The psychic mage won't be able to come until tomorrow, so we have to stay here until tomorrow to prevent accidents from happening.
Is there anything urgent at home? If there is an emergency, it’s okay to go back first, and just come back tomorrow morning!” Xu Dahuang said to everyone.
No one had an emergency at home, so everyone stayed.
"Very good. In that case, the vigil will be divided into three groups. Fan Mo and I will be in one group, Fei Shi and Li Wenjie will be in one group, and Caitang and Xiao Ke will be in one group. Now Fan Mo and I will be responsible for this period. You can go first
take a break."
…
At almost noon the next day, the psychic mage who came to assist finally arrived.
The person who came was not the cute girl as imagined, but a middle-aged greasy uncle with a shiny head and a fat body.
After the middle-aged uncle walked into the intensive care unit, he didn't say anything nonsense. Instead, he went straight to a patient and entered working mode resolutely to check his mental state.
As time passed, in the eyes of everyone in the city's demon hunting team, the middle-aged man frowned, with a look of confusion on his face from time to time.
After about ten minutes, the middle-aged uncle sighed.
"I'm sorry, I can't find anything abnormal. In my perception, the mental state of these patients is even better than that of normal people, but they are still asleep, which is simply incredible."
Could it be that he really encountered a ghost? Even Xu Dahuang was a little doubtful, and Xiao Ke was holding on to Guo Caitang's clothes tightly.
At this time, Qin Shaoqing, who had always had no sense of presence, spoke up. "Well, I have an idea!"
Everyone's eyes instantly focused on Qin Shaoqing.
"What do you think?" Xu Dahuang asked seriously.
After pondering for a moment, Qin Shaoqing did not answer for the time being, but turned to look at the middle-aged psychic uncle.
"I want to know, if you use psychic magic with mental shock on ordinary people, will it cause irreversible damage to them?"
What impressed Qin Shaoqing deeply about the early stage magic of the psychic system was that it sent out mental shocks to disrupt the opponent's star connection, but it could not cause substantial mental damage to them.
Of course, it is also possible that the magician's mental strength is much stronger than that of ordinary people after meditation, so he is immune to this kind of damage. It is hard to say for ordinary people.
"No, but you will probably fall into a state of mental depression for a period of time, and it will take a while to recover." The middle-aged uncle was stunned and answered truthfully, and then looked at Qin Shaoqing with surprised eyes, "You shouldn't be
Do you want me to...?"
In this case, there is no need to worry.
"Yes, I want you to use mental shock on that girl." Qin Shaoqing nodded and pointed at the girl who was unconscious first.
"Fan Mo, do you see something?"
"Well, I have some guesses, but whether the result is what I thought it will be revealed later." Qin Shaoqing did not say too much.
The first time he walked into this room yesterday, he vaguely noticed a strange mental fluctuation, but it disappeared too quickly and never appeared again, as if it was an illusion.
But Qin Shaoqing's spiritual realm has reached the second realm due to many factors such as time travel, reincarnation, learning and development, awakening of the space system, transformation of the elemental system, and condensation of the elemental heart, so he can be 100% sure that it is not just an illusion.
.
Combining their current symptoms, the fleeting mental fluctuations before, and the fact that his brain contained almost an entire library of massive knowledge, Qin Shaoqing naturally came up with some inferences.
However, at that time, the inference was still a small puzzle piece away from verification, and this puzzle piece was completed by Xu Dahuang last night.
The middle-aged uncle did not take action immediately, but looked at Xu Dahuang.
"Let's do it!" Xu Dahuang nodded. Since no one could see anything, they might as well choose to believe in Fan Mo.
Besides, even if it fails, there will be no serious consequences. This is a small risk that is not considered a risk and is completely acceptable.
"Okay!" The middle-aged man no longer hesitated. Under his control, the seven stars were arranged quickly like clouds and flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, a star track with a pink halo was formed.
"Lingyi—Psychic Shock!"
Star trails appeared, magic was released, and an illusory spiritual wave struck towards the sleeping girl.
However, at the moment when the mental shock was about to hit the girl, a mental barrier suddenly appeared and was completely eliminated.
"This is……?"
Before the middle-aged man could finish speaking, a pale white demon with a transparent body that resembled a ghost slowly emerged from the girl's body.
The first time they saw the demon, everyone started to connect to the star track.
But after finishing, Xu Dahuang and Guo Caitang had no choice but to stop when they wanted to release the attacking demon. In this situation, they could not guarantee that they would not accidentally injure the patient after releasing the magic.
The three auxiliary mages, Xiao Ke, Li Wenjie and Fei Shi, held the star track in their hands and stared at the demon, ready to release magic at any time.
"Eh~~? It's actually a soul-eating spirit demon!" Qin Shaoqing was a little surprised after seeing the true face of the demon in this incident.
The soul-eating spirit demon is an extremely special and rare kind of demon.
In the slave stage, they do not have an entity. Their bodies are on the boundary between illusion and reality. Ordinary magic cannot harm them at all. Their life-saving ability is the best among slave-level monsters.
In contrast, the threat of the soul-eating spirit demon at this stage is not very high. Even if ordinary people are parasitized by it, they will only fall into a long-term coma.
During this period, if the body's nutrition keeps up, it can take up to a month, unless the soul-eating spirit demon is parasitizing the main body, otherwise the split clone will return to the main body due to absorbing sufficient mental power.
The parasitized person can then wake up without any serious sequelae.
In addition, whether the soul-eating spirit demon is parasitic on its own body or its clone, there is a chance that it will be killed and devoured by a host with strong will and mental power. Therefore, their targets are basically ordinary people and will not attack those who pass by.
The magician who strengthened his spiritual power through meditation took action.
At the same time, due to this strange characteristic, the soul-eating spirit demon in the slave-level stage can become one of the scarce resources for mages to improve their spiritual realm. It is also the kind of sustainable development. Even if the upper limit is not high, it still has extremely high value.
However, after it evolves into a soul-eating demon at the advanced warrior level, it will condense into an entity and its lethality will greatly increase. However, all the characteristics of the slave level will disappear, and it will also look huge and ugly, which can be called a complete abnormality.
