GOR Chapter 22: Fear Illusory Goblin
This scene was truly bizarre.
Du Wei simply stood there. The injuries on his body were truly horrifying. The large bloody hole on his chest was so large that one could almost see through it. Additionally, it was as though he could not feel the blood flowing out of it!
Du Wei staggered a few steps forward. Under everyone's dumbfounded gazes, another Gryphon pounced forward and knocked Du Wei to the ground. The sharp claws of the Gryphon scratched his body and dark red blood immediately sprayed out …
"Master!"
Robert's eyes were red. At this moment, he recklessly rushed forward. However, Du Wei's small body had already climbed up by itself. Swaying a bit, he appeared to be smiling … at a time like this, Du Wei's face was actually able to reveal a happy smile. This caused the surrounding people to feel an indescribable sense of strangeness!
This small youngster raised his head and looked at the Gryphons that filled the sky. Suddenly, he laughed out loud and said, "If this is a dream created by you, then I have had enough of this dream. If possible, let me wake up from this dream!"
Robert rushed forward. The long sword in his hand transformed into a beam of light as it shot towards the Gryphon closest to Du Wei. This loyal Knight did not hold back at all as he unleashed all of his Dou Qi. The intensity of the Dou Qi exceeded the limits of his body. The Knight's body was imposing and every muscle on his body was bulging. It appeared as though blood was about to seep out from his skin!
The long sword imbued with Dou Qi pierced through the sky and pierced through the hard feathers of the Gryphon, shooting it down from the sky!
Robert threw himself onto Du Wei's body and hugged Du Wei tightly, exposing his back to the sky …
"Robert." Du Wei who was in his embrace was gasping for breath. As he laughed, blood flowed out from his mouth. "Listen, we have been fooled. All of this is fake." He pointed at the wounds on his body and laughed. "You see, with such wounds, if it were an ordinary person, they would have died long ago. But … "
After all, Robert was not an idiot. He also felt that something was wrong. This feeling was given to him by Du Wei … such a thin and weak youngster, receiving such a fatal wound, yet not dying! Even a strong warrior would have turned into a corpse under such injuries.
"My mental strength is stronger than ordinary people. Therefore, the opponent's dream cannot completely deceive me." Du Wei gasped for breath. "Unfortunately, I do not know how to break this dream … This could be a type of mental magic, or a type of illusion magic."
"Illusion …" Robert thought for a moment, then shouted, "Thorskei! Sir Thorskei! "
The magician who was protected by the soldiers in the innermost.
Robert hugged Duwei and rolled away, dodging the attack of a Lion Condor that descended from the sky. Several more wounds appeared on his back, and even his armor was scratched open, leaving him a bloody mess.
"Think of a way! Master said we used a type of illusion magic! "Robert shouted loudly.
Thorskei was sweating profusely. After all, he was not a real magician. Moreover, the magic he imitated through pharmaceutics was only fire. He did not dabble much in mental magic.
Robert had already rushed back with Du Wei in his arms. Thorskei said loudly, "I have no other way to break the illusion … I think, if we can get rid of these things, maybe we can. Just like how we got rid of that rhinoceros and that magic wolf just now. "
Robert could not help but curse, "Nonsense! If we had that kind of ability, would we even need to say it! "
Du Wei in his arms suddenly laughed and said in a low voice, "Robert, let me ask you a question … I heard that every Knight in the Empire who cultivates dou qi has a weakness in their qi. Where is your weakness?"
"…" Robert stared blankly. He had not expected his master to ask this kind of question at this moment.
"Hurry up and say it." Du Wei said in a low voice, "I actually have an idea."
Every Knight who cultivates dou qi has a weakness in their qi. When a Knight uses dou qi, his body's strength can exceed his physical strength by several times, or even more. But his own weakness is the most precious secret of every Knight! How could he say it so easily?
But Robert lowered his head and glanced at his master, who was covered in blood. Robert's heart trembled, and he gritted his teeth, "It's … on the right side of my chest, under the fourth rib …"
As soon as he said this, Du Wei in his arms suddenly showed a strange light in his eyes! Who knew where this weak youth got the strength from, but he suddenly rolled and struggled out of Robert's arms. He quickly pulled out a dagger tied to the Knight's leg, and then stabbed towards Robert's chest!
Robert could have dodged this attack, but as a loyal Knight of the family, a loyal retainer of the Rowling family, he hesitated. After all, this attack did not come from an enemy, but from … his master!
The armor in front of his chest had long been torn apart in the battle just now, and the cold dagger stabbed into Robert's right chest, just below the third rib! Robert could even feel the strange sensation of the cold dagger stabbing into his flesh …
Everyone was stunned when they saw their master suddenly pull out a dagger and stab it into the Knight's body!
Robert was the most shocked. The Knight looked at his young master in shock. He had never thought that the person he loyally protected would attack him at this moment! However, Du Wei's expression was very calm, and even carried a trace of relief.
"Don't worry, Robert. I won't harm you. It's just a nightmare."
Du Wei's deep voice made Robert groan. His body went limp, and he gave up the resistance in his heart …
Robert closed his eyes and collapsed …
While everyone was crying out in alarm, Du Wei slowly stood up. The dagger in his hand was still dripping blood. All the Rollin Family guards were staring at him in shock, but Du Wei was smiling. He threw away the dagger in his hand and smiled faintly.
"The dream is over!"
When Du Wei's dagger stabbed into the Knight's chest, the Griffins that filled the sky suddenly let out a mournful roar! Immediately after, countless Gryphons rushed towards Du-Wei from all directions as if they had gone mad!
Those sharp claws and teeth seemed to want to tear the young Du Wei to pieces!
Everyone closed their eyes. They all believed that this time, they were all dead for sure!
But at this time, something strange happened.
The first Griffin to reach Du Wei suddenly burst out with countless specks of light … Then, the bodies of all the Griffins stiffened in midair! Countless cracks appeared on their bodies in an instant, and dazzling rays of light shot out from each crack ….
Finally, with a whoosh …
In the countless lights, everyone couldn't help but lower their heads, as if they didn't dare to look at those lights. Only Duwei, he straightened his body, raised his head and looked at the strange phenomenon in the sky, but his face still had a sneer …
The bodies of the Griffins gradually shattered and melted within the light, turning into countless specks of light that scattered with the wind …
The evening sky seemed to have turned into daytime in this ball of light! Du Wei could even feel the surrounding space. Yes, the entire space was distorting. The surrounding trees, bushes, companions, and the corpses and blood on the ground were all distorting …
Finally, with a bang, everything returned to silence …
The forest was still the same forest.
The sky was still the same sky.
The distant mountain was still the same distant mountain.
The setting sun was still the same setting sun.
The blood on the ground had disappeared. The corpses that had been torn into countless pieces had disappeared.
What replaced them were the people on the ground. They were Knight Spann and his subordinates. They were the Rollin Family's guards who had 'died in battle'. Their eyes were closed, but they were definitely alive.
Only, they had all fainted.
Du Wei looked at his own body. Those bloody wounds had long since disappeared without a trace.
Knight Robert was lying at his feet … Surprisingly, there were no injuries on his body!
Regardless of whether it was the wounds from the previous battle or the wounds from when Du Wei stabbed him in the chest … they were all gone!
His armour was intact. The only thing that could be seen was that on the right side of his chest, around the third rib, there was a scratch on the armour. That was where Du Wei had stabbed him with his dagger earlier. However, how could a thin and weak youngster without any martial skills stab into the armour? At most, it would only leave a mark on the armour.
Du Wei slapped Knight Robert's face, waking him up from his slumber.
Robert opened his eyes and saw his master looking at him. Then, Du Wei smiled and said, "Sorry, I had no choice but to do that earlier … because, these are all environments. And you, you are the source of this illusion. All of the Gryphons were created from the memories of your terrifying past experiences. The other party created them based on your inner fantasies … So, I could only knock you out in the dream. Once you fainted, the other party's illusion lost its source and naturally disappeared. "
As for Du Wei stabbing Robert just now … it was only in the dream.
The remaining Rollin Family guards who were still standing at the scene looked at their own bodies in astonishment. They also looked at their companions around them. They couldn't understand what kind of strange method their young master used to make those terrifying magical beasts disappear … And the wounds on their bodies also disappeared.
Those dead companions, even those who had their bodies dismembered, were all lying on the ground in perfect condition.
The only one with injuries was the female Knight, Ruo Lin.
The injuries on Ruo Lin's hands were real! She had just used a secret technique of the Munn Clan … Magic Break Domain.
In her secret technique, it could break all kinds of magic. When she used this secret technique, she actually already jumped out of the illusion, so her injuries were "real".
There wasn't enough time to explain too much. The only one present who somewhat understood was the mage Thorskei. Although his magic ability wasn't much, his magic theory was very profound. He immediately took out a lot of medicine and applied it on the unconscious female Knight's hands.
Du Wei picked up the dagger on the ground and glanced at it, "As expected, there isn't even a drop of blood."
He held the dagger and walked forward. At this time, everyone discovered that on the ground in front of them, in the underbrush, there seemed to be a small thing slowly wriggling.
This was a thing about the size of a large mouse. It had light green fur and was really hard to see in the underbrush with the naked eye … if one didn't look carefully.
Du Wei's approach made this little thing immediately let out a frightened cry, but its movements were very slow. When it rolled out of the underbrush and tried to escape, the dagger in Du Wei's hand quickly shot out and nailed to the ground in front of it. Du Wei went up and stepped on it …
Only then did everyone get a clear look at the little creature. Its body was round, and under its green fur, it looked like a meatball. However, it had a huge tail … just like a squirrel.
In fact, this thing's appearance was almost like a squirrel — except that its fur was actually a strange green!
And what was different was that on its forehead, there was a small protruding horn. This horn wasn't made of bone like other animals, but was sparkling, as if it was some kind of crystal.
Du Wei stepped on its tail and this little thing struggled a few times before letting out a "chirp chirp" sound. It bared its teeth at Du Wei and cried out a few times. Suddenly, the horn on its head shot out a beam of light, striking Du Wei's body …
Du Wei was struck by the beam of light, but he didn't suffer any physical injuries. However, he suddenly felt countless memories emerging from his heart, as though his mind was quickly recalling many things …
Fear?
Yes, it was as though he had recalled the most fearful thing in his life!
It was as though he had sensed something scanning his memories. Within his heart, those dusty memories that did not belong to this world, those fearful memories, were dug out one by one. Du Wei shook his head forcefully …
He was enraged!
Ever since he came to this world, Du Wei, who always had an indifferent smile on his face, now had a ferocious expression on his face. His eyes were filled with rage!
Du Wei coldly looked at this little thing. Then, he bent down and said in a cold voice, "What is it? Are you looking for the thing that I fear in my heart … then, I'm afraid you will be disappointed!"
Du Wei reached out with his hand and grabbed this little thing. His fingers gripped the little thing's neck tightly and he lifted it up. Then, Du Wei moved closer to it and whispered, "You can read the fear in the hearts of others. So, you should be able to understand my words, right? Let me tell you … don't try to play your tricks on me … although I have fear in my heart, the thing that I fear is not in this world! The dreamscape you can create should only be limited to the things within the laws of this world … then, I'm very sorry, because I … don't belong to this world! "
The little thing struggled with all its might. The horn on its forehead continuously shot out rays of light onto Du Wei's body. But in its little eyes, there was finally a look of fear and despair … because, those rays of light were the magic it used to create the dreamscape. But to the person in front of it … it was completely ineffective!
"Master …"
Just as Du Wei was about to explode in anger, the magician's pleasantly surprised voice came from behind him.
Thorskei quickly ran to Du Wei's side. He carefully stared at the little thing in Du Wei's hand for a long time. His voice carried joy as he cried out, "Heavens! This is a 'fear illusory goblin'!! According to the records, this kind of thing has already been extinct for hundreds of years!! Heavens! Look at the horn on its forehead, it's already as long as a finger! This little thing is still a young illusory goblin. It shouldn't be a hundred years old yet! "
Du Wei's voice was very cold, "What, is it also a magical beast? Illusory goblin? Is it very rare? "
Thorskei's face couldn't help but reveal a trace of greed. Licking his lips, he said, "This kind of 'fear illusory goblin' can use the fear in the enemy's heart to create a dreamscape to deal with them. It's a kind of magical beast that possesses high intelligence. It can't be compared to those ordinary magical wolves and the like! Moreover, moreover … "
"Moreover what?"
The magician's eyes shone, "Several hundred years ago, this kind of thing was a treasure that every magician yearned for even in their dreams. As long as you catch one, kill it, dig out the horn on its forehead, and carry it on your body, you'll be immune to the vast majority of mind type magic! Its horn can be used to create top-grade magical defensive tools! "
As if it could understand the magician's words, when this fear illusory goblin heard the magician say that he wanted to kill it and take its horn, its fat body immediately trembled with all its might. The strength of its struggle also increased, and its small bean-sized eyes were filled with fear.
At this moment, the majority of the Rollin family's guards behind them had surrounded them. The others hurriedly woke up their unconscious companions, and even Spann Knight had been shaken awake.
Du Wei looked at the little thing in his hand and sneered, "Immune to the vast majority of mind type magic? This is actually a very precious thing … How do you use this thing? Directly kill it and take its horn? "
The magician was practically drooling, "Yes! That's right! Not only its horn, even its fur is a very precious magic material. In pharmaceutics, it's also a precious raw material! I can use its fur to create … "
Thorskei hadn't finished speaking when suddenly, a sharp whistle came from the distant mountain. Immediately, a fireball shot into the air like a meteor and exploded. It was a signal sent by another search team. They seemed to have encountered something.
Everyone was distracted for a moment before they saw a ray of light suddenly flash in the distant forest. It was precisely the place where the other search team had shot the signal of fire!
That ray of light flew through the air and immediately shot in front of everyone! A dark green flame appeared on the ground, and immediately, a person walked out of the flame!
"Careful! This is a high level magic 'Jade Flame Teleportation'! "Thorskei was somewhat nervous.
This person who walked out of the green flame was wearing a standard magician's robe, a tall pointed hat, and the robe was unexpectedly golden! On his chest was a golden three-leafed mugwort insignia!
Du Wei, who already had a good understanding of magic, recognized it with a single glance. This was shockingly an insignia that symbolized the identity of a "Great Magician"!
The magicians on the continent were divided into ten ranks. Magicians below the fourth rank were low-level magicians, fourth to eighth rank were generally called mid-level magicians, and eighth rank and above were called "Great Magicians".
And this golden three-leafed mugwort insignia indicated the identity of this magician, standing in the upper echelons of magicians on the entire continent! This guy was at least an eighth rank magician!
His somewhat short stature was completely shrouded in the golden robe. Under the setting sun, it looked incomparably luxurious, and this magician's face was completely shrouded in the pointed hat. Even his face was covered by a high collar, not even a trace of skin was exposed.
Although he couldn't see the other person's face, Du Wei clearly felt that the other person's gaze was fixed on the little terror illusion goblin in his hand!
The sudden appearance of an adept magician made Du Wei and Thorskei somewhat surprised. Associating this with the preciousness of the little terror illusion goblin that Thorskei had just mentioned, Du Wei naturally thought that the other person might have coveted it …
"Who goes there!" Du Wei shouted with a calm face.
Immediately, the quick-reacting Knight Robert immediately waved his hand, and numerous Rowling family guards surrounded Du Wei to protect him.
Many things had already happened today! The sudden appearance of a powerful adept magician made Knight Robert somewhat nervous … Whether the other person was a friend or foe, who knew!
"I am Knight Robert of the Rowling family. Honorable magician, please state the purpose of your visit!" Robert stood in front of Du Wei and rushed to speak first.
He first revealed his identity, and then asked the other party. This was the most adequate plan he had. He also hoped that the name of the Rowling family would make the other party somewhat apprehensive.
This magician didn't speak. He first lifted his wide sleeves, then lightly took off his pointed tall hat, revealing his appearance.
Immediately, everyone was stupefied!!
"Yes, yes, s-s-s-s-s-sorry …" This magician's voice was delicate and pleasant to listen to, and even carried a trace of nervousness and timidity … Most importantly, this magician was actually stuttering badly!
"I-I-I came to find t-t-t-he …" A slender finger lifted, pointing at the terror illusion goblin in Du Wei's hand.
Not only was this magician's voice delicate, even her appearance was so. After taking off her hat, this adept magician wearing the continent's golden three-leafed mugwort badge was actually a girl with a bashful expression on her face! Her round cheeks were slightly flushed, as if she was shy under the gazes of the crowd. Her nose and mouth were very small, but her eyes were very big and bright. However, there was a trace of pleading in her beautiful eyes.
"S-s-sorry … t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t- The more nervous she was, the more she stuttered. She looked like she was about to cry. "C-C-Can you return it to me? I, I, I … If I don't bring it back, the old teacher will punish me. "
