The knight in the abyss

Chapter 638 Mirage
"There is no way ahead!"

"Turn around! There's no way to go!"

One after another shouts came from hundreds of feet away, causing the crowd to commotion.Lancelot used his toes to figure out that this must be the work of the devil, and thanks to yesterday's reminder, many people also had the same idea, subconsciously holding the weapon in their hands.

"What stupid things are you talking about!" Sonam yelled back angrily, "Shut up and stay where you are! Get out of the way!"

The mercenaries walked to both sides of the road to make way for General Snake Demon. As one of the personal guards, Lancelot's team also walked forward with Sonam.It didn't take long for them to know what was blocking the way: the flat road turned into a swamp made of mud, and two tiefling mercenaries were lying on the edge of the swamp, trying to get a companion out of the mud pull.Behind them, four mercenaries were pressing a human man in a cloak to the ground, and in front of him was a Berserker who looked like the captain, trying to aim his ax at the struggling prisoner's head.

"Damn it! Falingge!" The six-armed snake walked up and hammered the Berserker's head with the hilt of his sword, "What are you doing?"

"Who deserves to be cut alive..." Captain Berserk Demon turned his head with an angry face, but his expression quickly turned into fear, because a sharp sword tip was less than half an inch away from its nose, and there was The other five long swords were flashing coldly not far away, "... General... I'm sorry... I don't know..."

"Pay attention to your tongue, it may say something stupid that will kill you." The six-armed snake demon coldly withdrew its long sword, "Why did you execute that human being?"

"This swamp has already swallowed three of my men, and they are pulling out the fourth." The Berserker named Falinger replied sullenly, "And this guy is a member of those scouting teams , Just half an hour ago, he told me that the front is unimpeded and there are no traps!"

"It really wasn't half an hour ago!" The restrained human man shouted, "This must be a devil's trick!"

"Nonsense, do you think I'm an idiot? My ass knows this is Baatezu's trick!" the big toad yelled back at the prisoner, "but we only moved forward after listening to you, so you should be damned! "

"Come on, Falingge, let him go quickly! We paid him, and if we die, we will die at the hands of the enemy, not the object of your anger!" On the top of Zhan Mo's head, "You idiots, can't you see that it's just an illusion?"

"Illusion?" Berserker showed a hurt look in his eyes, "General, but that swamp..."

Sonam didn't answer, but walked forward.A strange scene appeared. Although the mud in the swamp covered her snake body, it did not sink further down, and Sonam's movement speed seemed to be completely unaffected.She only walked five or six feet forward, then bent down, picked up three corpses from the mud, and then walked back easily carrying the corpses.

"Did you see it? The swamp doesn't actually exist at all, it's just your illusion!" the six-armed snake demon threw the body towards the surrounding crowd, "slap them hard, these idiots thought their nose and Mouth stuffed with mud!"

Naturally, many people are willing to step forward to help in this kind of thing. After a while, three guys with bruised noses and swollen faces walked up to Sonam and thanked her for saving her life.

"…Humph."

The six-armed snake made a short nasal sound, expressing that he had heard thanks, and some of the mercenaries had already boldly walked towards the swamp.However, after only a few steps forward in the swamp, the accident happened again, their feet began to sink down, and they shouted in horror. Fortunately, those who were on the sidelines were prepared, and they extended a helping hand to their companions (or the tip of a gun), and pulled them back from the swamp.

"This is indeed an illusion." Aramiel, who was standing next to Lancelot, commented, "Pay attention to those people who were pulled out. As soon as they left the swamp, all the mud on their bodies disappeared."

"What kind of illusion can do this?" Brutal stared at the mud in front of him, "Even if you told me it was fake, I still couldn't see anything abnormal...and those people really fell into it. It's like a real swamp..."

"I can't see it either." The elf priest admitted generously, "That means this is a very advanced illusion. I heard that some magicians who specialize in illusion can do this. For example, there is a river in front of them, and they can summon A phantom of a bridge, during the duration of the spell, people can pass through the bridge to reach the other side, just like a real bridge."

"Then why can the six-armed snake go in properly?"

"Because the lizard, just like other high-level demons, has the true vision to see through the disguise of magic." Aramir shrugged, "And those who can't do this, even if they know it's fake, as long as There is that slightest bit of doubt, and you subconsciously look for evidence that it is true, because we always tend to believe our eyes."

"That's it..." Brutal turned to look at Lancelot, "Brother, can you see that it's fake?"

Lancelot didn't make a sound, just nodded slightly.Although he could confirm that it was a phantom by relying on his aura, he was at a loss as to how to dispel it.At this moment, two female demons who looked like succubi and wore tight red and black robes squeezed in from behind. They all saluted Sonam and said:

"General, you summoned us?"

"Kors, Anathema, it's time for you to come in handy." The six-armed snake pointed to the swamp ahead, "Give me the illusion that can release this area."

"Illusion? I didn't see..." one of the demons asked in confusion, but was immediately interrupted by his companion's surprised voice, "God of the handicapped, this is the mirage of the Seven Rings' illusion!"

"I don't care if it's a spell with seven rings or seventy rings." The lizard's tail slapped the ground impatiently, "I'm asking if you can remove it!"

"This is beyond our ability to cast spells..." The half-demon who spoke first glanced hesitantly at the swamp created by the illusion, "But we can try, you must understand that it will not be easy, and it will take A little bit of luck..."

"So why did you sleep five teams for two nights? Didn't it mean that it would make your magic more powerful?" Sonam said in a harsh tone, "Dispel this damn illusion for me, or I will kill you with my own hands. Sew that seam between your legs!!"

　Thanks to the monthly votes from the book friends who are no longer human, Battlefield 1 Lone Traveler, Cyber ​​Abyss, and Reservoir Orca!Thank you for your support! PS, I feel that the spell of mirage is really IMBA. According to the 5th edition of the player's manual, this spell does not require concentration and does not require casting materials. It lasts for 10 days and changes the terrain within a radius of 1 mile. You must have a real vision to see through it, and see through it All other elements of the post-illusion will still be preserved, allowing physical interaction with the illusion..... This is actually only seven rings.....
