When a familiar companion takes the lead to set an example, it doesn't seem that difficult to escape the devil's control.
More and more figures are falling from the situation floating in mid-air, which means that the Lord of Fear's control over them has come to an end.
"Hey~"
"Hey~"
The arrow passed through the wind and pierced the chest.
Bai E did not use any skills or abilities to enhance the penetration, but the physical attributes of the Lord of Fear, whose body was rapidly weakening, were obviously completely unable to withstand Bai E's arrows.
Of course, the penetrating power of the arrow itself is secondary. What really causes damage is the exorcism essential oil that hits the wound along with the attack of the arrow. These are the protagonists who really cause damage.
Those white smokes seemed to be filled with countless tiny human faces roaring and wailing, and the endless emotional turbulence turned into the most chaotic psychic impact, making it difficult for these high-dimensional demons who feed on emotions to deal with it.
The resistance of the refugees weakened His power, and the weakening of power led to the weakening of the control over the refugees... The vicious cycle reached the limit, and at a certain moment all the refugees suspended in the air fell to the ground.
As the power transformed from emotions faded from the body like an ebb tide, the shriveled demon body took on the true form of a small demon.
The belated battle information slowly popped up from the panel——
[Use exorcism essential oil to hit a specific target, and 50% of your attack will be converted into special attack damage.]
[Causes 5 points of psychic damage to the target!]
[Lord of Fear (Demon) (Chaos) (Elite) (Weak State): HP 9/100; Defense 6; Trait: High-dimensional Life...]
[High-dimensional life: High-dimensional life will not really die in the material world. After their true bodies in the material world are devastated, their cores will return to the high-dimensional space, and after absorbing enough power, they will be hatched and reborn again.
After rebirth, they depend on their "rank" to determine how much of their pre-rebirth memories they can recover... Every time they die, it means they have learned more experience from the past.】
"I will come back! I will come back again!"
A small demon with a body of less than one meter and a reddish-brown body with shriveled muscles stared fiercely at the human who had defeated him, as if he wanted to remember his appearance until he was reborn.
"You can't kill me! I will come back and take you into a high-dimensional space, causing your soul to suffer eternal torture!"
Bai E pulled out the bow string with an expressionless expression, and concentrated his power on the arrow as he charged up, "If you come here a hundred times, I will kill you a hundred and one times!"
"call out!"
As fast as lightning, an arrow pierces the chest.
[Cause 12 points of psychic damage to the target! 】
[Your attack exceeds the target's current physical endurance limit, and the target will be expelled soon.]
The space where the Lord of Fear was was instantly dimmed, as if a foggy lens of light suddenly appeared behind him.
Almost no one could look at that area. The hazy feeling only made people feel dizzy and the world was spinning. Even Bai E couldn't look directly.
With the shriveled demon body as the center, the air flow rotated rapidly, but it never blew away the clothes of anyone present.
A brighter flash of consciousness flashed past, and the thin body instantly shrank into a fleshy egg and fell into the lens behind it, disappearing completely like sinking into a drop of water.
The aftermath rippled slowly, and space gradually flattened the ripples.
[You have completely driven away the target, the battle is over, and you have gained 300 combat experience points. 】
[Tip: Your behavior has attracted the attention of unknown existence! 】
After a brief moment of palpitations, Bai E withdrew his gaze from staring at that space.
revenge?
Come on then!
Gently sweeping over the refugees who were still regaining their senses in the darkness, Bai E breathed out softly and relaxed completely.
The will to fight receded like a tide, and the effects of the maintained absolute defense, extreme analgesia and other skills also dissipated instantly, and a wave of soreness and numbness emanating from all parts of the body, even the blood vessels and bone marrow, instantly surged up.
There were two tough battles in succession, and the battle with the Blood God had already reached the limit. Later, when facing the Lord of Fear, he was beaten for most of the time. Even Bai E, who had experienced several life-and-death battles, could not withstand it for a while.
The backlash of this extreme overdraft of the body caused him to fall to the ground, barely maintaining his basic posture by leaning on the wall behind him.
"Hiss~"
It hurts~
…
Disappeared……
Completely disappeared...
The refugees who had been lying on the ground for a moment without relief stood up in confusion.
The familiar dark cave looks so unfamiliar.
There are no longer those wriggling shadows in the corners, no more monsters that seem to rush out of the darkness at any time to eat people, and the sound of the wind above is no longer as thrilling as it used to be.
The feeling of being hollowed out by something disappeared, the feeling of being so cautious that even a slightly louder sound could make people's hearts skip a beat disappeared.
A warm current flows throughout the body, as if those poor and painful days are gone forever.
All of this... seems to stem from the same belief.
Was it him who saved us?
His eyes gradually focused and looked in the same direction.
Two flame rods that glowed in the dark illuminated a small space where the man was. The savior who had saved everything was leaning against the wall alone with one hand on his knees and looking ahead... as if he was looking up to the future.
["Lucky Blow" charge +50.]
[The charge of "Lucky Blow" has reached 120/100 and is currently available for use! 】
"Sir...sir."
An old and cautious voice sounded in front of his eyes. Bai E blinked and came back from his thoughts.
Facing the three voices in front of him, one big, two small, Bai E smiled at them as softly as possible, "Hello."
He looked intently at the two young boys and girls. They were about fourteen or fifteen years old. They were thin, thin, and dirty, but their eyes were bright and energetic...
Bai E was deeply impressed by them, because it was these two children who were the first to muster the courage to escape from the control of the Lord of Fear.
No matter where they are, the power of examples is always infinite. After all, as an outsider, they are not as convincing as these two people who are familiar with them.
Without the two of them taking the lead in resisting, I'm afraid there's still a question of success or failure. Even if they can finally successfully expel the Lord of Fear, their situation may become quite tragic.
"You were very brave just now...what are your names?"
If possible, Bai E even wanted to reach out and touch the boy's hair, but unfortunately he couldn't.
I am really too tired.
"Murphy."
"Girolan."
Boys are more enthusiastic and girls are a little calmer.
Bai E nodded, "You've done a great job, you are heroes."
After receiving the praise from the "strongest person" in his mind, the boy's face showed some obvious joy. The girl lowered her head slightly and did not dare to accept the sudden praise, "Actually... we didn't do anything.
"
"People who can bravely face reality are great."
Bai E explained with a smile, then looked up at the elderly refugee who had been waiting quietly.
"Are you their leader?"
Any group of more than three people who live together for a long time almost always needs a leader who can make decisions on major issues.
Without a unified will, these refugees, numbering at least four to five hundred people, would never be able to leave the city and live in isolation and survive.
The elder nodded. His gray hair was full of vicissitudes of time, and the wrinkles on his face were as deep as mountains and ravines, "Yes."
After acknowledging his status, the elder seemed a little nervous and rubbed his hands, and his tone became worried, "Sir, you said you would take us... take us to start a new life?"
Those lives that "flow with milk and honey" are so ideal that it is difficult to achieve even just speaking of them.
All he wanted was to leave this hellish place.
Although fresh mushrooms and occasionally caught small animals can barely maintain food and clothing, after all, clothing, medicine and other supplies are not something that these refugees who have left human society can make by hand.
As time goes by, they will never be able to survive, and the size of this refugee team will only become smaller and smaller.
Not to mention that simple survival has never been the only need of human beings.
Spiritual emptiness will only lead to greater disasters.
They've already proven this once...
But now... God seems to have finally ignored their misfortunes.
The reason why he was quietly waiting for the savior in front of him to talk to the two children just now was that he wanted to see what kind of character the savior sent by God was.
Now he seems to be gentler and more tolerant than he thought.
Underneath that calm composure is an unimaginable depth of knowledge.
I don’t know how the savior will arrange them?
"I wonder where your lord...comes from?"
The elder's voice was soft, and he completely sank into the mud. His backbone had long been shattered by the endless suffering, and all that was left was the humble act of asking for a stable life for his companions.
Bai E did not reply immediately, but kept looking calmly into the elder's eyes.
There was silence until the elder raised his head in confusion and met those bright eyes like morning stars.
"grown ups?"
"You are not inferior to anyone else. Remember this, don't underestimate yourself, don't choose to be humble. Those higher-dimensional beings are always paying attention to the world, waiting for every opportunity to invade. Never become their tool."
The helplessness of the rat people and the misery of the refugee community... are stories that everyone should be alert to.
Maybe I can't control the overall situation of the city, but facing the group of refugees I just rescued, it's okay to say a few words that I want to say.
"Yes..." The elder's voice paused slightly, and his complex mood became more firm, "Sir!"
"I come from Blackwater City and am a warrior..."
Bai E then spoke softly and told his origins.
After the excitement is over, there are real problems that need to be faced.
