Chapter 73 Wilson
It is said that the energy of time and space is not very accurate, and the ball of energy at the top of the cave seems to be less than what I usually come into contact with.
"It should be just pure space energy."
But these are not the most important things at the moment. The most important thing is the person standing in the middle of the cave and next to the floating death-attribute magic stone.
It was completely different from the zombies I encountered before. Although this person had pale skin and eyes that emitted evil light, he did not show any sanity. Instead, he seemed very calm. He was a little surprised when he saw Ethan and others.
"This guy...is a dead creature who retains his self-awareness?"
In Ethan's perception, the person in his sight was also a dead creature full of death energy, and was a completely different existence from living people like himself.
"This scene... such an existence...how does it feel like you have encountered a villain boss?"
Ethan held the sword in his hand tightly, and the development of things became more and more like a traditional drama. Could it be that this person caused the abnormalities on this island?
"Oh? You were not killed by my undead army, but came here alive. It seems that your strength is very good. In this barren sea, you should be considered top adventurers."
Not only did he retain his self-awareness, he did not even lose his ability to speak, but his voice seemed silent and fluctuated, and he sounded cold.
The visual sense of the big boss became stronger and stronger. Ethan first looked at other parts of the cave before answering the question of the person in front of him.
"Although I'm not very clear, I should be considered top-notch..."
The corners of the villain's mouth were tugging, showing a cold smile. The smile looked awkward, as if he forced the muscles to make the face look like "smiling". In fact, there was no meaning of laughing at all.
"That's good." The villain spread his hands and put on a very arrogant posture: "Introduce myself, my name is Wilson, let's get to know my future master."
This guy named Wilson didn't take Ethan and others seriously at all, and said his own words.
"I am very happy that the adventurers who have finally passed by have finally come to me for so many years. The undead soldiers transformed by weak guys are really unsatisfied. You may be my latest and best subordinates!"
Ethan didn't need to ask, but this guy named Wilson just finished speaking on his own. Barbara introduced everything he had done over the years.
Wilson is not an adventurer in this sea, he returns to this sea from the other side of the Sea of Storm.
The death-attribute magic stone in the center of this cave was brought back from the new sea area to this sea area. He transformed into a dead creature through the magic stone, no longer needed to eat or breathe, and relying solely on the death energy provided by the magic stone, it is enough to survive for a long time.
It is precisely because of his lack of breathing that Wilson spent a long time passing through the storm water from the seabed and returning to the calm sea, which is what he called the barren sea.
His purpose is to use the Death Magic Stone to build an army of undead.
For so many years, he has been using the advantages of undead creatures to constantly search for the islands that have just risen from the seabed, and then enter it, using the characteristics of magic stones to turn the island into a dead Jedi, and transform the adventurers who come to the island into undead creatures.
Before the island is about to fall silent, he will leave with his undead men and then look for another island that has just risen from the seabed, and thus expand his power in such a cycle.
"Thirty years... Adventurers in this sea area are really not good at it. Many people don't even have the qualifications to become undead. I hope you don't disappoint me, it's best to become a real undead warrior... instead of becoming those low-level garbage."
After waiting quietly for a long time, Ethan waited until there was nothing new, and then spat with disdain: "It seems like you can eat us, what exactly gives you such confidence?"
"What gave me confidence?" Wilson suddenly opened his mouth and laughed wildly: "Of course it's my strong strength!"
The rampant laughter suddenly stopped again, and Wilson, who had a cold face, looked at Ethan: "Ignorance young man, feel what it means to be truly powerful!"
Wilson did not make any moves, but Ethan felt that the death energy in the entire cave began to become active, and even violent fluctuations were emitted from the Death Magic Stone.
Almost at the same time, the women who had been behind him suddenly roared in pain. Ethan immediately turned sideways and turned around to observe the situation.
The two subordinates of Helena were Mata and Eliza. The two powerful female warriors seemed to be suffering tremendous pain at this time, sweating and pale faces, and their bodies were filled with fluctuations of death. The fluctuations were not strong, but they kept attracting the rich energy of death in the cave.
"No, if this continues, they will be forcibly transformed into undead creatures."
As a magician, Ethan may not meet the standards in terms of strength, but his hard work and hard study these days has given him rich knowledge accumulation, and his eyesight is even considered excellent. He almost instantly figured out what happened to the two of them.
"Helena retreated."
Helena was about to check what was going on on both of them, but was caught off guard by Ethan and staggered.
"What are you doing?"
"They are being eroded by the power of death and will be forced to transform into undead creatures."
The root of the problem is likely to be the trauma suffered in previous battles. Those wounds are inconspicuous, but they have more or less residual energy of death.
Without Wilson, such a little death energy might cause some trouble, but it would not be enough to suddenly turn the two people into an undead.
But now these energy has become an introduction, and the only solution is to eliminate these dead energy.
If it was Ethan in the past, there was nothing he could do about this situation. But now it is different. Ethan knows his weakness. As a mage, he cannot use magic in a short period of time. As a warrior, his physical fitness is not strong enough. Therefore, his biggest reliance at this stage is all kinds of props.
Ethan is a character who likes to prepare for the future. He will think about it in his spare time and create various props to deal with various situations, including what should he do if he is invaded by the negative energy of aliens?
It was precisely with this preparation that he dared to agree to Helena on board the island together. Otherwise, he would never nod and agree. Even if there is space energy on the island, he would not risk going to the island to destroy his future.
Ethan rushed to the two women, and he didn't need to ask where the wound was. With his mental power, he could completely capture where the death energy as the introductory was concentrated.
Under the ribs and shoulders!
Ethan pulled out a pendant from his neck. This thing was a prop he made specifically for energy invasion. It was very rough and made with very ordinary techniques.
The core of the pendant is something like a dog card. Ethan only needs to wrap the chain around his hand, then press the core part against the center of his palm, then press it at the position where the death energy is gathered, and activate his mental power to activate the magic array in the pendant to absorb these death energy.
The death energy was not much because Ethan's reaction was fast enough, and Wilson couldn't figure out what Ethan was doing. Seeing his movements, he showed a look of watching the show.
Perhaps Ethan's behavior was a meaningless struggle in his eyes. He wanted to see what expression would be like when Ethan worked for a long time without any use.
However, things did not develop as he expected. He watched the two women's faces gradually regain popularity and the pain gradually disappeared. At the same time, he could feel that the remaining energy of death on the two people was sucked away by the young man.
"This is impossible!"
Wilson, who had been maintaining a cold face, could not believe everything he saw. He even suspected that the other party was acting. However, he had been transformed into a dead creature, and he could feel the fluctuations of death energy very sensitively. The power gathered in the palm of a young man would never be mistaken by him.
"How could you control the energy of death as a living?"
Wilson, who was out of control, had no previous style. In his cognition, only by transforming into a dead creature could he control this energy. But what happened now was simply subverting his cognition. What he had always believed was subverted, causing him to fall into madness.
This time, Ethan looked at Wilson with disdain.
"Ignortic and arrogant fool."
He looked at the pendant in his hand. The rich death energy made him very afraid. He didn't want to continue to contact. The pendant that absorbed death energy could not be left on his body.
Switch the pendant into the corner, and the magic circle on it will slowly lose its effect. At the same time, the pendant corroded by death energy will slowly be damaged or even turned into ashes. The death energy inside will slowly dissipate into the air. However, in this environment, this little death energy has no effect at all.
Ethan refocused Wilson, noting that this guy's demeanor was far less than what he had shown at the beginning. He was shocked when he saw a little accident and was ridiculed by the rookie who looked down upon him, and his emotions were on the verge of an outburst.
