Chapter 88 Solution
Just then, the drowned guards in the middle and right were closing in, their bone swords whistling through the air and exuding a dense chill of death as they slashed across from the left and right.
Before the sword even arrived, the chilling cold that pierced the soul and the negative effects that eroded mental power had already enveloped them.
Luo Lin released a slight burst of starlight beneath his feet, his body retreating rapidly, simultaneously activating the spatial deflection properties of the [Myriad Phenomena Star Vortex].
The protective aura of star power around him rippled once more.
The two bone swords struck the distorted force field, their trajectories subtly deflected, grazing past Rolin's sides before striking the black reef, leaving two deep, chilling grooves.
The deflection was successful, but the impact and biting cold it transmitted still caused the protective barrier to fluctuate violently, consuming a lot of mana.
"We cannot afford to defend passively; their attacks are accompanied by soul-corroding effects, and prolonged defense will inevitably lead to defeat."
The thought raced through my mind.
As Luo Lin retreated, he joined his right fingers like a sword, no longer pursuing the extreme high temperature of the flames, but instead trying to combine the cold, soul-corroding power of the Soul Flame Flower with the penetrating properties of star power.
A wisp of extremely condensed, almost invisible gray-blue energy silently shot out from the fingertip, its target being the soul fire in the eye socket of the drowned guard in the middle.
This time, the attack was effective.
The grayish-blue filaments seemed to have a special attraction to the soul fire, easily passing through the energy shield on the opponent's body and precisely piercing into the dark blue soul fire.
laugh!
A soft, yet soul-stirring sound.
The drowned guard in the middle shuddered violently, his movements suddenly froze, and the soul fire in his eye sockets flickered violently, as if a flame had been doused with cold water, and its color dimmed considerably.
Its silent roar carried a sense of pain and chaos, even distorting its sword-wielding movements.
"Soul attack effective!"
Luo Lin's spirits lifted.
It seems that the enhancements of these undead are more reflected in their energy resistance and physical attack capabilities, while their core soul essence remains relatively vulnerable to specialized soul-corrosion methods.
The drowned guard on the left, who had just withstood the fire ray, pounced again, sweeping his bone sword across.
This time, Luo Lin did not rely entirely on spatial deflection. Instead, he used a series of footsteps, combined with the mobility provided by the [Micro-Light Purification Force Field], to narrowly avoid the sword's edge.
At the same time, he pointed out with his left hand again, this time with several pure, highly compressed stellar energy rays.
The stellar rays struck the drowned guard's armor, bursting into bright blue specks.
While the inclusiveness and corrosiveness of star power are not as direct as fire or soul attacks, its inherent order and purification properties counteract the negative energy nature of the undead.
The dark purple patterns flickered again, trying to counteract the erosion of the star power, but still slowed the guard's movements for a moment.
The drowned guard on the right also overcame its initial sluggishness and joined forces with its ally on the left to attack from both sides.
Faced with the siege, Luo Lin took a deep breath and decided to attempt a preliminary fusion attack.
With my mind highly focused, the [Myriad Stars] model clearly appeared in my consciousness.
The magical power flows to different nodes, with the stellar energy base acting as a bridge and stabilizer, integrating the characteristics of a wisp of space.
A wisp of the explosive essence of the Molten Heart and the corrosive chill of the Soul Flame Flower were forcibly blended together in the palm of the hand in an extremely delicate and fragile way.
This process requires extremely high control; a sharp pain came from the palms, and the fused energy was extremely unstable, as if it might explode at any moment.
As the two bone swords were about to strike, a fierce glint flashed in Rolin's eyes. He no longer pursued perfect control and hurled the unstable energy ball in his palm, which was a chaotic gray color with dark red and ghostly blue light threads darting around inside, forward towards the ground. The target was a spot slightly in front of the middle of the two drowned guards.
After the energy ball left his hand, its flight trajectory became somewhat erratic, and it exploded with a bang when it was still half a meter from the ground!
There was no earth-shattering roar; the explosion was even less powerful than a corrosive orb.
But at the center of the explosion, a short-lived, distorting force field with a diameter of about two meters appeared.
Inside the force field, space folded slightly, and the dark red flames did not shoot outwards, but collapsed and burned inwards, mixed with an invisible and intangible yet icy erosion that pierced straight into the soul.
The two drowned guards who stepped into the force field's range instantly began to move in extremely strange ways.
Their armor seemed to be pulled and twisted by an invisible hand, with dark purple patterns flashing wildly in an attempt to resist the power of spatial folds.
The negative energy protective layer on their bodies rapidly melted away under the burning of the eerie flames that collapsed inward. Even more deadly was that the soul-corroding force ignored most of the external defenses and directly impacted their soul fire.
The two guards let out silent wails, their soul flames visibly dimmed, their movements became completely stiff, and they almost couldn't even hold onto their bone swords.
opportunity!
Rowling would never miss out.
His figure moved like lightning, bypassing the edge of the force field. He channeled his star power into his right palm and struck the chest armor of the drowned guard on his left, whose soul fire was slightly damaged.
In his palm, the pre-condensed, highly compressed star power and a trace of fiery implosion power burst forth simultaneously.
boom!
With a dull thud, the ancient armor on the chest of the drowned guard finally shattered under the attack from both inside and outside, revealing the hollow skeleton inside and a ball of violently fluctuating ghostly blue soul fire.
Luo Lin's fingertips flashed with gray-blue soul threads again, which burrowed into the core of the soul fire like venomous snakes.
The azure soul flame surged suddenly, then vanished completely like a candle being extinguished.
The armor shattered on the ground with a crash, losing all its function.
Solving one problem greatly reduces the pressure.
At this moment, the middle drowned guard, who had been severely injured by the soul threads, had just recovered somewhat from the chaos, while the one on the right had just struggled out of the distorted force field, its soul flame flickering, and its condition was extremely poor.
Rowling showed no mercy and repeated the same method.
First, precise soul threads were used to disrupt their rhythm. Then, they were brought close and attacked one by one using the technique of stellar power mixed with flame implosion, combined with the natural weakening of negative energy by the [Myriad Stars Vortex] protective field.
When the last drowned guard's soul fire died out and his armor fell apart, Roland also felt a distinct sense of fatigue.
Continuous and high-intensity use of [Myriad Stars], especially attempts at fusion attacks, consumes a considerable amount of mental and magical energy.
Roughly estimated, the battle just now consumed nearly 30% of my mana, and my mental energy also felt a little stinging.
But the gains were also enormous.
This not only verified the practicality of innate spells when facing powerful enemies, but also provided firsthand information about this source of enhanced undead and abnormal energy.
I walked over to the pile of scattered armor and examined it closely. The dark purple patterns on the armor were slowly fading, but the remaining traces still hinted at the chaotic, corrosive, unknown energy.
This energy appears to greatly enhance negative energy creatures and grant them additional energy resistance.
"The root cause must be addressed."
Roland looked at the slowly rotating whirlpool in the sea, emitting a dark purple light, his expression solemn.
It would be too risky for him to venture alone into the deep sea to explore energy sources that might be hiding even greater dangers.
The most urgent task is to return to the observation station and inform Wizard Horn in detail about the situation here, especially the characteristics of the enhanced undead and energy sources.
Perhaps Horn has more specialized detection methods or can provide a more effective solution.
Without delay, Rowling quickly retraced his steps. He encountered only a few tentacle monsters along the way, which he easily dealt with.
Back at the observatory, the apprentice visibly breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Rowling return unharmed.
Rowling directly requested a meeting with Wizard Horn, as he had important information.
This time, perhaps because Luo Lin brought back crucial information, or perhaps because the external pressure had temporarily eased, the metal door to the core control room finally opened.
