Wayne and the others found the missing Witcher Elder Andahel somewhere, but the elder seemed to be in a bit of a problematic state.Sluggish, sluggish, and unresponsive to her surroundings, Hasselblad tried to talk to her, but the other man only uttered a few meaningless muffled syllables, and continued to stand still.Hasselblad used various detection spells to check on Al-Andahel's condition and asked Tutain, "Where did you find her?"
”"It's already like this in that tower."
Hasselblad stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Andahel's eyes, who stood there with a blank face.After a while, she walked away suddenly, and under the curious gaze of the crowd, she came to the scattered ruins of the banquet, rummaging through the pile of rotting and spoiled food.Hao Ren was stunned for a moment before realizing that she was instinctively "foraging".Hasselblad immediately stepped forward to help Andaher up and gave her the dry food he had brought with him.Andahel still didn't react to Hasselblad, but she instinctively took the food and expertly opened the package on the outside of the dry food and devoured it.Hasselblad handed over another bottle of water, and Andahel took it, and she knew how to open the lid of the bottle."
The instincts for self-care are still there, but it seems that she has lost most of her ability to communicate with people and most of her senses," Vivien said, "It looks like she's been here for a month." ”"What's going on?"
Itzhax was surprised, "Could it be that the Shadow of Chaos can not only drive people crazy, but also make people stupid?"
”Lily flicked her tail and began to make creative guesses: "She's also an ancient one, could she be as Alzheimer's as a bat?"
”Vivien immediately glared at her, "Don't say anything and take me up!"
I'm just forgetful, not demented!
”As Lily and Vivien were about to choke on the flames again, Hasselblad suddenly found something in the detection spell that he had unleashed on Andahel: "Wait, it's not the influence of the Shadow of Chaos, it's a spell of sanity binding, but it was released to himself by the caster." ”Hao Ren was stunned for a moment, and looked at Andahel's sluggish face: "Mental restraint?
”Vivien coughed dryly: "It's mentally retarded." ”Mentally retarded - a funny name, but it's actually a real and common spell that is known to witchers and some human wizards, as well as to a different race known as the "Night Demons".This magic acts on the spirits of intelligent beings, disrupting perception and weakening the ability to think, and powerful spellcasters can even make people completely unable to think.The effect of this magic varies greatly depending on the caster's ability, and it is also affected by the recipient's sense of resistance, so it is actually a very unreliable spell, because the person who is controlled by your magic may suddenly think of his wife/husband/other person's wife in his mind, and then suddenly feel energetic and out of control.But if the caster uses this magic on himself......
Because he suppressed his sense of resistance through autosuggestion from the beginning, the duration of the magic was almost infinite.Andahel was under the influence of the mentally retarded, and the caster was herself."
How did she do it to herself?"
Elizabeth grabbed the horn with a strange expression, "After being mad by the Shadow of Chaos, if you can't find an enemy, will you beat yourself?"
”"No, she should be there to prevent herself from hurting others!"
Hao Ren's mind stirred, "Does the Shadow of Chaos affect a target who doesn't have a sanity?"
”"It doesn't seem like so," Hasselblad reacted, "the main way the Shadow of Chaos triggers a frenzy is to infinitely amplify the anger and hostility in people's hearts, but if a person doesn't even have the ability to think, then it will definitely not be affected." ”"Can an outsider release this kind of mental restraint that he has placed on himself?"
Izzax asked.Hasselblad frowned: "......
Hard.The most special thing about this spell is that its power is not only limited by the caster's level, but also by the target's own sense of resistance at the time of the spell, which is a purely spiritual and volitional thing.There have been beggars who have resisted the magic of the master witcher, and there have been warriors who have been killed on the battlefield and have been fools for half their lives.Andahel, on the other hand, cast spells on herself by herself, and her sense of resistance at that time was zero, and her spellcasting level was the strongest......
I'm afraid there is no solution from the outside. ”Hasselblad explained in detail what the Mind Binding spell does and how it works, just to illustrate how difficult it is to disarm it.But Itzax still heard a glimmer of hope from it: "In other words, the recipient can still have a sense of resistance, but this part of the consciousness is blocked?"
As long as she can take the initiative to have the idea of sobering up, she can still be sober?
”"Theoretically," Hasselblad gave Itzhax a quizzful look, "but what are you going to do?"
Her soul was sealed in the depths of her spirit, and she couldn't hear the outside at all. ”A demon's green fire slowly rose in Izax's eyes, and he laughed gruffly, "If you don't mind - I'm a demon, and I'm best at talking directly to other people's souls. ”"Soul extraction?!"
After understanding what Itzhax meant, Hasselblad and Tutain next to him exclaimed at the same time, and then Tutain subconsciously objected, "No, cooperating with aliens is already an unprecedented thing, and letting a demon touch the soul of an elder has crossed the bottom line." ”"It won't be extracted," said Yitzhax unhurriedly, "just to delve into her spirit world and say a few words to her."
I can guarantee the safety of this witcher lady, and will never do anything in her soul. ”It's true that Itzhax is sincere, but the point is that he's too hateful both from this face and from this race, and the advice that comes out of his mouth feels weird and scary no matter how you listen to it.Hasselblad and Tutannin were both green, and neither dared to nod.This is also to blame for the reputation of the demon race in various worlds - although many worlds have all kinds of demons, but the demons from different worlds are similar in personality and behavior, they are all good at manipulating human souls, and especially like to use this talent in evil places, I have never heard of a demon who touched other people's souls and put them back untouched, let alone used psychic rituals to talk to people.Like Yizax, who loves life and is positive, he is free every day, either reading the People's Daily or going to the intersection to carry his grandmother across the road, that is, he was lucky to let Hao Ren take him in, otherwise he should have been sent to the institute at this time......
After seeing Hasselblad's attitude, Vivien finally became a little impatient: "Then you think of a solution that works." ”Hasselblad opened his mouth, "......
I'm thinking. ”"Do you think we can waste our time now?"
Vivien's momentum was aggressive, "Give you thirty seconds."
Hao Ren began to pinch the watch. ”Hasselblad couldn't laugh or cry: "You're too ......"
"Twenty-five seconds." ”At this time, Bai Huo suddenly interjected: "Mentor, I think you can try it." ”Hasselblad was stunned: "Huh?
”"Didn't you say that power is just a tool, and tools don't distinguish between good and evil, good and evil all depend on their use," Bai Huo said very seriously, "If the situation requires it, the demon hunter can also use poison and sneak attack, so if it is to save people, it should make no difference if the demon uses psychic power for healing, right?"
”Hasselblad was a little speechless for a moment, and Vivian patted Bai Huo's shoulder with satisfaction: "The little girl has a future, and she is much more active than your master." ”Hasselblad didn't expect to be defeated by his own disciples at a critical time, but thinking that these were indeed his usual teachings, and Bai Huo's words were also very reasonable, he could only nod: "Then try it, but if there are any accidents, you must stop immediately." ”The demon hunter next to him immediately expressed doubt, but Hasselblad just shook his head: "It's a matter of urgency, no matter what, we have to find a way to recover Elder Andahel first." ”As he spoke, he looked at Vivian, saying that the real person who made the decision on this matter was this living ancestor, and suddenly the demon hunters on the scene did not object much - no one wanted to choke on Vivian, because they were really afraid that Vivien would beat them up and shout when the fight started: "When I beat your father/your grandfather/your grandfather, they didn't squeak!"
”Of course, the more important reason is that everyone's hostile instinct has inexplicably disappeared, and in this case, the demon hunters have also begun to think in a more rational way, and if they were previously controlled by the hostile instinct, they should have a completely different attitude.With no objection, Yitzax immediately began performing a soul ritual on Andahel.
