Yue Yi's words were very reasonable.
No matter what the evil spirit was thinking, everyone just had to follow their own pace.
There were people in this world with deep wisdom who could deduce the enemy's overall plan from a small clue and come up with a targeted solution. However, this group of people was definitely not one of them.
Since they were not deities, then they would use the ordinary way to solve the problem.
The ordinary way was to fight steadily and do what needed to be done.
After everyone agreed, they continued to move forward.
Probably because the priest noticed that they were coming, the crying sounds became much clearer. After a while, the ranger and the mage heard it too. After a while, even the knight and the warrior heard it.
"Crying is so annoying!" The warrior muttered in dissatisfaction. "It's so annoying!"
"Could it be that someone is in danger and needs help?" The knight listened for a while and said worriedly. "Let's go take a look."
"Boss, how could there be someone in need of help in this place?" The ranger sighed. "Look at the ground. Other than the footprints we left, are there any other footprints?"
The knight looked carefully for a while and shook his head.
"That's right. Judging from our footprints, this place has been deserted for at least two to three months." The ranger said. "If someone was really locked up here and didn't eat or drink for two to three months, they would definitely be dead."
"Even if they didn't die, they wouldn't have the strength to cry so loudly." The warrior added.
"Maybe the place where they locked her up has dry rations and water tanks …" The knight guessed.
"Captain, don't be silly. Who would have dry rations and water tanks to lock up prisoners? Do you think this is the retreat of a cleric? "This time, even the priest could not help but laugh.
The knight thought for a while and felt that this idea was not reliable. He could not help but laugh bitterly and shook his head.
"I'm sorry. When I hear someone crying, I can't help but want to help …"
"There's nothing to be sorry about." The warrior smiled and patted his shoulder. "It's because you're such a person that I threw away my hoe and picked up my weapon to accompany you on this adventure."
"That's right. Captain, you're a good person. This is something that you can hold your head high no matter where you are. There's nothing to be sorry about." Yoy nodded in agreement.
No matter where it was, good people would always be more trusted and supported by others.
After the small interlude, everyone continued to advance according to the plan. At first, they moved in the same direction as the crying sound, but they soon deviated.
If they listened carefully, they could roughly tell that the crying came from one of the rooms in the middle of the third floor. However, they were not in a hurry to search on the second floor. They did not seem to have any intention of going upstairs to rescue her.
Perhaps the evil spirit was also anxious. The crying became strange, and the direction of the crying also changed.
"Eh? The direction of the crying has changed. " Rangers were the most sensitive when it came to directions. She frowned and immediately noticed it. She hurriedly told everyone.
"Don't worry about it." You Yi sneered, "No matter what tricks that guy is playing, he's just trying to trick us into going there. As long as we don't go there, it can't do anything! "
"But … the crying sound is slowly approaching us!" the ranger said worriedly. "It's slowly approaching the direction above our heads."
Yue Yi frowned and looked up at the ceiling.
The evil spirit was a type of incorporeal creature, and incorporeal creatures could pass through ordinary physical obstacles. Naturally, the ceiling was one of them.
Could it be … that the evil spirit wanted to attack from above their heads?
She pondered for a moment and secretly shook her head.
This did not make sense. If the evil spirit really dared to attack them directly, it would not have dragged on until now.
She did not know that in the original history, the adventurers were attacked by the evil spirit roughly at their current position.
This place was almost at the center of the entire castle. There was not enough light, especially when the side of the window was blocked by the tower, so the sun could not shine in.
For the evil spirit, if it wanted to fight in the daytime, this was almost the most suitable place.
Yue Yi did not know this, but she quickly made a decision.
"Retreat!" she shouted. "No matter what the reason is, retreat first! Safety first! "
Everyone turned around and ran without hesitation. The evil spirit did not expect this group of adventurers to run so decisively. It could not catch up to them. Before it could reach above their heads, they had already retreated to the position of the stairs, and ran straight to the hall on the ground floor.
Seeing that they were about to run far away, the evil spirit's heart was suddenly filled with anger. It let out a strange sharp cry, and without hesitation, it activated its special ability.
Illusion!
At this moment, the ranger ran in front. Just as she was about to walk down the stairs, she found her vision blurred, and the surrounding scenery suddenly changed. In front of her was no longer the stairs leading to the ground floor, but a very luxurious guest room. The door of the guest room was ajar, and a woman's crying came from inside.
"What's going on?" She was shocked, and did not dare to rashly push the door open. She hurriedly retreated, but bumped into the priest.
The priest was not hit at first, but he did not expect that the ranger would suddenly retreat and bump into him. He could not help but be distracted by this collision, and immediately fell into the trap.
Following closely behind was the warrior. His spiritual strength was not high, so naturally he could not avoid the trap.
The knight lasted a little longer, but not by much. He saw that everyone in front of him had stopped, and could not help but feel a little puzzled. Just as he was puzzled, he also fell into the trap.
In the illusion, the four of them found themselves alone, facing the strange crying in the luxurious room, and did not know what to do.
This was the most powerful ability of the evil spirit, to create an illusion and pull the enemy into it. As long as the enemy was violently stimulated in the illusion, their spirit would be shaken, and they would suffer heavy injuries. It might even find the weakness in their hearts and directly possess them.
As the four of them fell into the trap, from the ceiling not far away, a transparent greyish-white figure slowly descended, watching them coldly.
However, it did not rush forward, because there was still one person who had not fallen into the trap.
Yue Yi looked around cautiously, not daring to be careless. Although she was not pulled into the illusion, she could clearly feel the spiritual attack from the evil spirit. Seeing that her companions had stopped in their tracks, her eyes became dull. How could she not understand what had happened!
Feeling the murderous intent coming from behind, she slowly turned her head, and saw the evil spirit staring coldly at her.
"You dare to come out in broad daylight, you're really crazy." She sneered, and said fearlessly.
Naturally, the evil spirit would not chat idly with her. It let out a low roar, trying to scare the girl who had not been pulled into the illusion.
What answered it was the white light emitted from Yue Yi Mo's palm.
Magic trick, freezing ray.
The power of this spell was very weak, about enough to freeze a teacup, or make an ordinary person who lacked training shiver violently, their whole body cold. If hit two or three times in a row, it could knock down or even kill an ordinary person.
But to the evil spirit, its power was not enough. To use this spell to knock down an evil spirit, it would be impossible without twenty or thirty hits.
However, this magic wand could only cast a total of five times.
Unfortunately, the evil spirit did not know this. It only knew that it had been attacked, and although the power of the attack was not great, it could really hurt it.
So it was instantly filled with shock and anger, letting out a crazy roar and pouncing at Yue Yi.
(This is what I've been waiting for!)
Yue Yi was not the least bit nervous. She took out the locust wood swords hanging at her waist, and at the same time, she began to chant a spell.
Supreme Magical Technique, Combat Spellcasting.
This was definitely not a skill that an apprentice mage could use. In fact, without special training, even many high-ranked mages could not cast spells while fighting.
This was one of the skills that "Magic Cannons" were best at. As extreme battle mages who needed to cast spells while sprinting, Magic Cannons had trained the "Combat Spellcasting" ability of ordinary mages to the point of perfection. From this, they had even developed a special Supreme Magical Technique that allowed them to fight with their enemies while smoothly casting spells without any delay.
As the disciple of the world's most outstanding Magic Cannons, Felix, Yue Yi had naturally learned the Combat Spellcasting skill of the Magic Cannons. And … She had learned it well.
Of course, it was impossible for her to cast more complicated spells, but if it was just a low-level Flash Spell, then it would not be a problem.
Seeing that the young girl and the evil spirit were about to fight, she suddenly shouted loudly, and her right hand suddenly lit up.
The evil spirit never dreamed that there would be such a mage, and it was immediately affected. Not only was it dazzled by the strong light, it also unknowingly let go of the illusion and released the four adventurers' shackles.
In the next moment, the priest with strong willpower was the first to break free from the illusion. His eyes became clear again, and he also heard the sound of Yue Yi and the evil spirit fighting.
Without thinking carefully, he immediately raised the Holy Emblem of the Goddess of Luck and activated the priest's special skill, Dispel.
In theory, the priest's "Dispel" could dispel many things, from demons and ghosts to all kinds of negative spells, and even the bad luck in life could be dispelled. But to this apprentice priest, his "Dispel" only had one effect.
Dispel the undead.
The golden light suddenly lit up, turned into a circle, and spread to the surroundings, enveloping Yue Yi and the evil spirit who were fighting.
White smoke suddenly rose from the evil spirit's body, and it let out an angry roar.
This "Dispel" did not cause much damage to it, but it made it even angrier.
But at the same time, the power of the Dispel allowed the other three companions to completely break free from the illusion and regain consciousness.
The ranger took out the bottle of holy water without hesitation. Because it might be necessary to pour it on the evil spirit's head, this bottle of holy water was given to her, who was the best at throwing things. She rushed towards the evil spirit.
She knew that the power of this thing was limited, so she had to make sure that it hit its target.
The warrior and the knight did not need to say anything. They rushed towards the evil spirit from the left and right, using their bodies to restrict its movements. On one hand, it was to save the mage who seemed to be in danger, and on the other hand, it was to fight for a suitable position for the ranger to attack.
This was all a strategy that they had discussed beforehand, and they had even rehearsed several times this morning to ensure that this set of attacks would be well-coordinated and effective.
As it turned out, the training beforehand was very useful.
The evil spirit was attacked from both sides, and even though their attacks should not have any effect on it, the two of them took out the pendant that could slightly defend against spiritual attacks and used it as a weapon to hit the evil spirit.
The pendant exuded an aura that the evil spirit hated, and it could not help but slow down a little.
At this moment, the ranger had already rushed in front of it, pulled out the cork of the bottle of holy water, and poured almost all of the holy water on its body.
