At the foot of the mountain, the evil spirits were lining up, following the procession slowly forward. From time to time, the sound of bones colliding could be heard, as well as some indescribable strange sounds.
At this moment, an evil spirit with a broken chin slowly turned its head and looked in the direction of the mountain with those strange eyes. At this time, a group of evil spirits with even more strange movements suddenly stopped. They were wearing tattered clothes and had their heads lowered. From time to time, they would raise their heads and look ahead.
Strangely, their blue eyes had no flames, but they made people feel a chill.
The one in the lead was shorter than the dozen or so evil spirits behind her. She slowly raised her head and saw a strange black shadow emerge from her forehead. Then, the evil spirit seemed to have lost interest in them and turned its head away.
At this time, the evil spirit's chest rose and fell. Everyone secretly sighed in relief. Then, Reina mustered up her courage and walked toward the army of evil spirits, shuttling between them.
Everyone's heart was beating fast. No one could believe that they had successfully mixed in with the evil spirits. How did they do it? Even they did not understand. Only the human leading the way knew what was going on.
It turned out that in the battle with the stone dragon, Reina had observed that the dead birds were not interested in the stone dragon at all. And they had barely escaped their eyes and ears by wearing the skin of dead people. Moreover, if they were not careful, their identities would be exposed and they would be attacked.
From then on, she began to think. What was the world in the eyes of the evil spirits? In their eyes, what was the difference between Reina and other evil spirits?
Since they could deceive the dead birds in the sky by wearing the skin of dead people, she began to think that these evil spirits might not have good eyesight, and their rotten brains did not have enough intelligence to analyze these images. Perhaps they were like wild beasts, distinguishing objects by smell. Zeba once said that a magic potion from the Wusen Empire could make them stop moving. That potion had a strange smell.
But this conjecture was quickly dispelled. If their noses were so sensitive, then they would definitely be good at tracking. Combined with Reina's understanding of evil spirits, they did not have this ability. In the end, she could only think of something related to the taboo of magic. It was called superstitious and depraved sorcerers, evil sorcerers who used living sacrifices to cast dark magic.
There was no doubt that evil spirits were the most evil magic in the world. They could make corpses come back to life and attack living creatures. The Black Book that her master had given her had recorded some secret knowledge. When she wanted to remove the curse of the compass, she had learned that at the moment of a creature's death, it would release a kind of death magic. Even a magician who could inspect magic would not be able to see this kind of magic. It could only be observed under extremely special circumstances.
Coupled with the fact that she had gone to Wanshi's village, which had been attacked by Evil Spirits within a radius of ten miles, the village was still safe and sound. She knew how to use the magic of death. The strange corpses that were nailed to the pillars in the village were her magic.
So, she had a thought. Could it be that these evil spirits judged whether the other party was a friend or foe based on whether the magic power emitted by the other party was death magic? The reason why the rock dragon was not attacked by the dead birds was because its body was covered with rocks, as if it was dead. As for the magic potion that could stop the Evil Spirits, she discovered that it was a kind of alchemy potion that could interfere with mana. Based on the modification of the Magic Interference Potion, it could affect the Evil Spirits' perception of mana.
Now, she was finally sure that these Evil Spirits could see death magic.
Reina raised her head. Her face had become somewhat frightening. Under her pale skin, the green veins were visible to the naked eye. Her blue eyes were also similar to those of the Evil Spirits. The orcs behind her were the same. They were like living dead, shuttling back and forth among the Evil Spirits.
Baron raised his head and followed closely behind this human. He looked at her back in admiration, recalling what had happened on the mountain …
"In short, it's to blend into them, find the leader of the Evil Spirits, and then use the magic potions to assassinate him without anyone knowing."
Reina said.
This was like a plan proposed by a child, full of fantasy.
"But is there any way to sneak into them? Once we get close to them, they will launch an attack. At that time, I'm afraid we will really become one of them. "
But she replied, "As long as we die once, it'll be fine."
Hearing this, before Baron and his men could draw their weapons in fright, Reina suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, then staggered and fell to the ground.
This sudden turn of events caused everyone to be at a loss for a moment. He walked over in fear, only to find that she was not breathing, and there was no pulse. Her body had also become cold and stiff. Baron was shocked, thinking that there was some horrible magic that directly cursed her to death. Just as they were about to leave this place immediately, Reina suddenly opened her eyes and breathed again.
"Like this."
She opened her mouth and said.
The Evil Spirits could not speak. What was going on with her?
"You! Aren't you already … "
"Dead. Yes, that's just an illusion. You can call it fake death. I've been trained by my master since I was young how to survive. I'm already an expert in survival. This is a magic used to fake death. It may be useful when forced into a corner. "
She explained a lot, but Baron only understood this sentence. What followed was a mess of magic. But he slowly calmed down. Reina's face also gradually returned to normal, and the cold aura also disappeared.
"So you want us to learn this magic and blend in by pretending to be dead?"
"You don't need to learn it. You just need some medium."
"What are you going to do?"
"I'll kill you once …"
She said such dangerous words with a smile. Even now, Baron still had lingering fears of her magic. He clutched his chest. He did not know what Reina did, but a strange magic arrow hit his heart. Then he felt an unbearable pain. The world seemed to have abandoned him. Everything became silent. He seemed to be holding his breath and drowned in the black sea.
He was terrified. When he was about to drown, a hand grabbed him.
He woke up again, but he did not know when he lost consciousness.
There was an indescribable feeling of dullness in his body. His whole body was weak, and he felt light. His windpipe seemed to be restricted. No matter how he breathed, his lungs could not be satisfied. He felt terrible.
Was this the feeling of dying once?
