Chapter 521 - 509: Soul Imprisonment
Chen Feng gazed levelly at the battlefield.
Hundreds of ogre warriors charged forward like an iron flood, ready to overwhelm all the defenses ahead at any moment.
In this situation, the humans’ momentum fell to a lower rank—not because the warriors were weak and cowardly, but because the ogres, standing up again in this disadvantaged position, exuded an indescribable spirit.
The ogres’ bodies were covered in countless bloodstains, with fresh red plasma still seeping from their wounds, yet even in this state, the ogres continued to charge forward. Even those too injured to rush still crawled persistently, slowly approaching the crowd.
And all these changes...
were entirely due to that Shaman!
As the spiritual symbol of the camp, Man’er was not only a strong Golden Tier fighter but also the faith of everyone. With him present, the camp stood like a stone pillar in the dirt mound, never to collapse.
The warriors held their breath, with some even taking a step back. These warriors, who were accustomed to death and war, actually felt a trace of fear.
Chen Feng did not chastise them.
—Oppression!
The opponent was a caster; the Shaman possessed exceptional soul attacks. Those abilities just now were merely surface manifestations. Chen Feng sensed a faint pressure emanating from him.
Man’er attempted to use this method to cast a shadow over the warriors, similar to the awe inspired by Dragon Might!
If it were just these warriors present, this battle would surely be lost. During combat, the destructive power of a caster often surpassed most combat-type experts, for besides having formidable spiritual power, they also wielded some sort of massive magic attack.
—Meteor Fall!
—Meteor Fire!
—Earth Burst!
These were all large-scale magical attacks. Some legendary casters could even summon meteors from the sky. At that time, a wave of magical attacks could potentially sink Quanzhou. Before the overwhelming force of nature, an individual’s strength seemed so insignificant, lacking even the basic ability to resist, and would be completely crushed.
All this was an illusion.
Chen Feng, as a Blazing Demon, had a strong perception for the fire element. At this moment, he clearly sensed the incredibly active fire element in the Shaman.
Gathering strength!
Just like a Wizard chanting spells when casting magic, this spell was too powerful. The Shaman attempted to distract himself with the blood of his clansmen. All the schemes had but one purpose, and that was time!
This magic was similar to the "Big Character Burst," where scorching magma would instantly rain down on the enemies. By then, even with the Dark Department guarding the side, the collapse of the soldiers would be like a landslide, unable to save their lives amidst the large-scale magic attacks!
The opponent was an old fox.
As an ogre who had survived for countless years, he even mastered wisdom that his clansmen could not possess. All this was just a trap he set.
And the humans were the prey that entered the trap.
This appeared seamless, yet in Chen Feng’s eyes, it had been visible from the start.
It was time to put an end to this!
The Undead Mage was merely a bait to attract the Shaman’s attention, whereas Elwin was the key figure orchestrating this assassination attempt.
Elwin did not reveal his strength; unlike Flora’s bold advance and the Inferior Demon’s ruthless fierceness, Elwin’s belief from a young age was to endure and deceive by pretending to be weak.
Geniuses often die young!
If Flora was a cheetah that would burst with maximum power to kill the enemy within seconds, then Elwin was a deadly snake hidden in the water, never exposing herself. Only when the enemy stepped into her attack range would she reveal her venomous fangs and bite the enemy!
Elwin excelled at disguising herself. She drew the bow and arrow from her back, her gaze fixed on Man’er, waiting for an opportunity, a chance to befell him with no recovery!
The Undead Mage did not fear the fiery, transformed giant dog before him; he stood there like a corpse devoid of emotion and thought, wielding the Bone Staff in his hand.
Some black mist engulfed the corpsified ogres, and in a moment, a group of over three hundred pounds each, massively heavy fat fellows appeared before everyone’s eyes.
It was almost spherical; calling it a ball might be more fitting. Its small eyes shone fiercely, contrasting with its greasy, pale body. Its two arms were dark red, exuding a strong smell of blood.
Like a corpse left for several days, undergoing "Giant Observation," they showed no expression when facing former companions, instead charging forward. During its run, its body slowly swelled, its face turned grotesque, its engorged eyes filled with a destructive fury, while its nostrils emitted white smoke, and a beast-like, suppressed sneer on its mouth gradually widened!
—Corpse Explosion Skill!
"Boom!"
Just as this group of monsters made contact with the ogres, their massive bodies tore apart, and the deafening explosion left a two-meter-wide crater on the ground. The resulting explosive force, indifferent to kinship, instantly shattered several ogres, leaving their bodies like torn rags lying motionless on the ground.
The corrosive liquid was extremely terrifying, a green color that fell to the ground with a hissing sound, and after a few seconds, the splashed concrete floor was stained black!
Under such a critical strike, the Blood Corpse’s body was torn apart, a large lump of foul-smelling entrails sprayed out, and vaguely in the center of those innards, some wriggling maggots could even be seen.
The Undead Mage accelerated the decay of the corpse, and these maggots were not as simple as they appeared. These bugs, materialized from resentment, would crawl into the enemy’s wounds or other parts, destroying their minds and turning them into will-less zombies.
Just that, most Ogres didn’t notice the danger coming, and instead stared blankly at their exploding comrades.
This guy actually self-destructed!
The surrounding Ogres looked at the huge pit in front of them with some astonishment, while the Ogre at the front was heavily wounded by the terrifying explosion, hindering their advance.
And at that moment when everyone was slightly dazed, Elwin’s mouth curled into a sinister smile.
"Dirty creatures, not worthy to live in this world!"
At this moment, Elwin’s clothes billowed without wind, and there was an otherworldly aura in her every gesture, especially her phoenix-like eyebrows, which contained a hint of murderous intent within their charm, perfectly blended together.
"I didn’t expect that Elwin has made such great progress in such a short time. After breaking and then standing, stepping into the Golden Tier, she comprehended the Arrow Will so quickly."
"Hmm... Once she advances another step, it’s highly possible this will can continue to upgrade. By that time, she will be the arrow, and the arrow will be her; man and arrow in one, invincible, and she also has the Evil God Rose to back her up!"
Chen Feng murmured to himself, without the slightest panic due to the battlefield situation.
It could be said that this small-scale battle was not worth his attention at all. This is the strength of the Battle Group. A mere Golden Tier Ogre Shaman didn’t require him to mobilize too much power!
"Hah!"
A shout of anger brought Chen Feng back to reality.
At this time, Elwin was chanting a sorrowful purification verse, and the power in her hands emitted a dazzling light. At close range, it shone on her jade-like face, exuding radiant splendor, surprisingly beautiful beyond compare, with even a hint of sacredness.
Quickly, a magma-like heat ignited in her hand, blowing her clothes to flutter, while her fiery red long hair also began to float, not at all giving a sense of disorder, but rather imparting a wild and unique atmosphere.
In the next second, Elwin reached out and grabbed into the void, then a crack appeared before her eyes, like a trace of a cut; she lifted her head, and with the tip of her finger, a streak of pitch-black light flitted by instantly!
Man’er felt a fatal sense of crisis; instinct told it that it should stop casting, but it had already gathered its power. Five seconds, it only needed five seconds, and the suddenly appearing flames would burn these enemies to death.
It hesitated.
Yet it was precisely this moment of hesitation that pushed it into an irreparable realm.
Void!
Man’er felt it had been hit by something, but it didn’t feel pain; instead, all its consciousness was slowly fading. This feeling surpassed fear; it was a complete crushing, as if even its body and will were about to vanish into the void.
Endless blood spilled to the side; after its giant body exploded, it was like a flood of blood from Purgatory, an indescribable stench sweeping the ground, and at the moment of its body’s rupture, one could even hear countless chilling ghostly whispers.
"Soul imprisonment?"
Chen Feng took all this in, apparently even he did not expect that after stepping into the Golden Tier, Elwin had mastered this special ability!
This was not just a simple sniper attack; while shooting, Elwin’s body had also imprisoned Man’er’s soul. The soul of a Golden Shaman was simply priceless.
Man’er died.
But there were still some simple thoughts.
He saw with his own eyes his forehead being pierced, and his soul the next second about to be imprisoned in the enemy’s world. His enemy was not just the Lich; around him, there was also a Hunter constantly watching him.
Is it over?
In the end, his clan would still be completely slaughtered like that winter, this time being even more dreadful. Without his protection, not even a drop of bloodline would be preserved.
High above.
Man’er’s soul gazed down at everything around him.
Everything he did was for his people, no... it wasn’t over yet... as long as one clansman survives, his tribe would not completely perish.
"In the name of the master!"
"Follow the ancient pact, humbly praying with the Power of the Soul to you, hoping you’ll awaken from slumber and slay these hateful invaders!"
Man’er gazed down at the various humans around him, and a hint of violence and madness flickered in his eyes. In an instant, his soul became much fainter; just before disappearing, he slowly said, "Oath!"
——"Dragon Pact!"
