Bzzt … Bzzt …
While Elvin and the others were dodging swiftly with the help of the complicated terrain, the crisscrossing and beautiful glowing crystal pillars were in for a bad time.
The small crystal clusters vanished in the poisonous mist, while a layer of the large crystal pillars melted away.
If they were up against a kingdom's army that was below Transcendent, the Mushroom Man would have used his home field advantage to cast two large-scale spells in quick succession, and that would have been enough to wipe out the enemy!
Even though they were all Transcendents and were equipped with the gas masks and leather jackets that Elvin had carefully prepared for them, they did not dare to personally experience the terrifying power of the dark green poisonous mist.
"Aaaah —!"
Red soulfire suddenly rose from the beast-fang necklace around her neck and surged into Apsuya's tall and slender body.
Red beast stripes grew on her cheeks under the beak mask, and illusory round beast ears grew out of her head. Her muscles quickly swelled, and her incredibly fit body stretched her leather jacket, revealing the perfect lines of her muscles.
[Supernatural Ability: Soul of the Giant Bear!]
She lifted her leg and broke a crystal pillar that was at least two people's height, grabbed it with both hands, and shot it out like a ballista attacking a city.
Boom —!
However, even though there was a layer of dark green mist between them, the Mushroom Man who had telepathy with the spore cloud would not be ambushed by such a simple attack.
As tiny spiritual sparks flickered, the Mushroom Man's body floated up and easily dodged the attack, and was no longer as clumsy as when he used the mycelium to move.
On the other side.
Having realized that the Mushroom Man was one of the two remaining Dark Warlocks, Elvin's first reaction was …
Luxu —
Amidst the chaotic and rapid incantation, a red magical light shot out from Elvin's fingertip.
[Witchcraft: Flesh Riot!]
"Look at the Poison School's nemesis, Li — no? How is this possible? "
However, the witchcraft that was supposed to have a strong destructive power against this parasitic form of existence was actually … ineffective against the "Mushroom Man".
Elvin immediately realized that the Mushroom Man that looked like it was made up of fungal cells had in fact completed the essential transformation of a lifeform.
There was no longer any part of his body that came from the foreign body, nor was there any flesh or blood that was a hindrance!
Unlike Zombies and Venomous Wolves, which retained their brains, they had to possess a specific parasite. This guy who had completely transformed into a big mushroom already had many different forms of life: parasitic life, saprophytic life, free life and so on.
After obtaining the alien life form with extremely strong survivability, the drawbacks were overcome to the greatest extent.
If he had chosen to stay in the Vissari School of Thought, the mushroom man might have become an extraordinary figure on par with the founder of the school, Dr. Andre Vissari, and the current chief, Dr. William Oslebov.
Just as Elvin's attack was about to fail, the counterattack of the "Mushroom Man" arrived. Even though he wasn't a professional fighter like his companions, he still knew the principle of capturing the ringleader when fighting one against four.
"Your spirit will be under my control!"
A thunderous announcement resounded in Elvin's heart.
Crackle …
The facial features of the "Mushroom Man" faced Elvin. Golden Soul Sparks flickered on the surface of his body and in the spore cloud that filled the air.
Under the control of a veteran sorcerer and a master of psionic abilities, a powerful electric field that contained terrifying energy was forming.
[Innate Spell, Soul Lightning]
His sharp telepathy allowed him to sense the powerful physical strength that Elvin had deeply hidden, as well as the enormous energy that had yet to be transformed within his body.
Based on the experience of a sorcerer, while possessing a powerful physical body, the spell attack that had no effect on him just now undoubtedly showed that his opponent's spiritual strength was weak and powerless.
It was common knowledge that a sorcerer could not take on the role of a Knight with a spirit that was as strong as iron and stone. The power from the soul would easily penetrate his soul and turn him into his loyal servant.
Then … tear his companions into pieces!
Even though the "Mushroom Man" was just a decoration, there was still a flash of lightning in his empty eyes.
Slash …
The next moment, the Soul Lightning that had been brewed to its limit easily pierced through the moist air in the cave. It drew a dazzling white arc of lightning and pounced towards Elvin on the other side of the poisonous cloud like a white dragon.
While this destructive attack was brewing, Elvin had already changed the weapon in his hand. With the help of the excellent transcendent longsword "Lightning Rod", the enormous vitality magnetic field that belonged to a level three Extraordinaire was released like an evil dragon.
The moment the Soul Lightning descended, a bright blue electric venomous dragon shot out from the tip of the "Lightning Rod" as if they were electrodes that were attracted to each other.
Boom!
The two bolts of lightning had already turned into two dragons of different colors. They "wrestled" together without any fancy moves.
* Rumble … *
The entire cave that had existed for hundreds of thousands of years was trembling. From time to time, large crystals that grew on the ceiling of the cave would fall down and shatter into pieces beside them.
It was as if the uncanny workmanship of nature could not help but tremble in fear under the power of the two of them!
The nerve signals of living creatures were also a kind of electric signals, and the power of lightning was a rare powerful energy that could penetrate the physical and mental worlds.
The "Mushroom Man" relied on countless fungal cells to turn his mind power into lightning, while Elvin turned his powerful level three vitality magnetic field into lightning.
In a battle that did not require any technique, only the strong could win!
Gradually …
The majestic electric fields on both sides collided and gathered between the two of them into a ball of lightning that shone like a blue sun. Just like its kind in nature, under the cold blue appearance was a destructive and powerful energy.
The moment the ball of lightning was formed, it slowly moved in the direction of the "Mushroom Man". It was clear who was at a disadvantage in this battle.
"How is this possible?"
In a battle of the essence of power without any fancy moves, the "Mushroom Man's" level two [Soul Lightning] was defeated by Elvin's level three transcendent power, [Divine Power].
It was clear that after Elvin used [Flesh Riot], the "Mushroom Man" had also made the mistake of underestimating his opponent.
Even if Elvin's mental strength was far inferior to his, with his level three body magnetic field, it was enough to crush him.
It was only when the "wave battle" began that the "Mushroom Man" realized that the opponent he had chosen was a powerful level three transcendent!
As he cursed at the loss of this deal, the thought of retreating rose in his heart.
Suppressing his fear of the destructive power, the "Mushroom Man" floated backward and gradually retreated to the only entrance and exit of the cave, which was also the winding tunnel that Elvin and the others had just passed through.
He gritted his teeth and decided to make a decision.
The moment he cut off the energy output, he had already lunged into the cave. With his mind power fully activated, he soared into the sky along the winding tunnel.
"Boom!!!"
The ball of lightning that had gathered the energy of both sides but was not controlled by either side landed at the entrance of the tunnel like a high-explosive missile.
"Whoosh …"
While the earth shook and the mountains shook, the "Mushroom Man" also paid a heavy price for the failure of the "wave battle".
The part of his body that acted as his neurons quietly turned into ashes.
However, to the "Mushroom Man" who did not have any vital points, this injury was still bearable. He gritted his teeth and charged out of the crystal cave before the tunnel completely collapsed.
At the same time.
"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! "
Elvin, who had also broken free from the electric field, turned into an afterimage and gathered his three companions at the most stable place at the edge of the tunnel.
Through the final connection maintained by the mind lightning, Elvin accidentally captured a small part of the "Mushroom Man's" memories that leaked out when part of his body was destroyed.
He also used this opportunity to solve the question that had been bothering him all this time.
That was: What benefits did spreading the plague bring to the Poison School of Thought?
It was only at this moment that Elvin finally connected this sudden biochemical attack with the "Spirit Tide" that Apsuya had mentioned earlier.
"These guys might have grasped the existence of the" trend "as well!"
Although on the surface, there was no relationship between them and the totem god.
The "Poison School" did not leave any extraordinary imprints that pointed to Lady Crow during their operation, and they would not establish any connection with the upper-rank totem god in the spiritual world.
However, as long as the "large-scale plague" occurred in the New World, it would be the most direct help to Lady Crow, the upper-rank totem god who controlled the three authorities of [Impurity], [Plague], and [Death].
Obviously, among the powerful natural spirits who wanted to compete for the only demigod position, some of them could not wait for years or decades. They wanted to push the situation of the New World to their advantage in one go.
They even wanted to secure victory and eliminate all the other competitors.
Their cooperation with Madam Crow and her Shaman Sect …
The "Poison School" was now purposefully attacking the tribes that worshiped the fourth-rank totem god.
Not only could they use the large number of people to expand the infection range, but they could also divert the attention of those powerful beings, leaving them no time to prepare for the fight for the demigod position.
It was a good plan to kill two birds with one stone.
However.
Through these memories, he obtained further information, but it also made Elvin completely dispel the idea of investigating further. He was ready to get the original strain of the cyst fungus and leave immediately.
To meddle in the business of an upper-rank totem god, he was not tired of living.
After a while.
Although the cave was in a mess, it finally stabilized completely. Then, Elvin heard a cry of surprise.
"The exit has completely collapsed. Don't tell me we're trapped underground and can't get out? This is three hundred meters underground! "
Apsuya pulled Milan's hand, there was unconcealable fear in her words.
Looking up, Elvin also found the traces of the collapse of the mountain after the ball of lightning exploded. Although it did not affect the place where they hid, the exit had been completely blocked.
He did not expect that his little disciple Angel, who was not a prophet, would have a prophecy come true. He was actually buried underground by the collapsed mine.
But Elvin, who had something to rely on, did not panic at all …
So.
"Don't worry, I have a way!"
Not knowing where the tacit understanding came from, Elvin and "Rody" said this sentence at the same time. At the same time, they took out a … golden compass that was still shining in the dark underground!
The two of them could not help but look at each other.
"Uh, this is a little awkward!"
