Chapter 644: Capturing the Evil Creature (8000)

Before the huge black hand launched the second attack, the gravel-covered ground suddenly lit up with a brighter light.

A purification array with a larger area and a wider range covered a huge space including the purification array and the ghost.

The ghost, sensing the danger, did not bother to continue attacking the purification barrier and rushed towards the larger barrier outside.

Bang!

Ripples were raised on the huge purification barrier.

The ghost, who was wrapped in gray mist, gradually revealed his figure under the shining of golden light.

Under the dark purple weird armor, a terrifying humanoid monster was revealed.

It seemed to have no entity, condensed by a ball of dark purple energy.

Mist emanated from its body.

It was not known whether it was a part of its body or some special substance.

Every time it moved, it would release more gray mist.

Not only could it block everyone's sight, but it also seemed to make the ghost faster.

The golden light emerging from the ground and the barrier, when it hit the gray fog that permeated the surroundings, was like a steel needle that pierced a balloon, and immediately pierced the surroundings.

The ghost monsters hiding in the gray fog were also severely injured by the purifying light, and their bodies were pierced with dense holes.

Many ghost monsters could not withstand the sudden attack, and burst with a "bang", turning into a piece of gray-black ash, or into pieces of dark and shiny soul crystals.

The sudden change immediately put the frightened Laura at ease.

She looked at the ground emitting bright light in disbelief.

"When was this purification array set up?"

"It is so large in scale and so effective that it is comparable to a legendary array!"

In fact, this legendary purification array was not created by the staff of the Bay Territory.

It was made by the bishop of the Goddess Church, "Mad Dragon" Barrett.

He is not only a legendary priest, but also a maker of legendary sacred items.

Arrange such a legendary purification array.

Normally, it takes 1 legendary priest to pray, 4 extraordinary priests to arrange, and 12 high-level priests to hold the ceremony.

The whole process takes at least 8 hours.

In addition to the arrangement materials of more than 800,000 gold coins, it also requires the injection of vital divine grace.

Divine grace is very "rare".

Only the fanatics who are favored and recognized by the gods can accumulate a little bit through daily chanting and praise.

This is why, for the production of some things, Matthew can only cooperate with the church.

The legendary purification barrier in front of him was made in advance and stored in the storage space.

When it is ready to use, just take it out and arrange it quickly.

The Magic Goddess Church originally planned to "support" the Bay Territory for free.

The Bay Territory naturally understands that "free" things often cost more.

So it provided the church with 1 million gold coins, plus the Blood Pass to sweep low-level demons, accumulating a total of 60 million soul fragments in two months.

The former satisfies the church members.

The latter can also satisfy the Magic Goddess.

As the understanding of soul fragments deepened, the Bay Territory also studied more of its functions.

However, almost all of its uses were not as important as "praying for the gods to come".

Especially for the church!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The ghost stared with red and twisted eyes, staring at the purification barrier that suddenly lit up after the attack.

It seemed to be looking for weaknesses and gaps to rush out.

Its attack speed was extremely fast, attacking the purification barrier in all directions, slashing out a series of surging ripples.

However, although the ghost's attack speed was fast, it could not break the legendary purification array that the Bay Territory had spent a lot of money to arrange.

Laura looked at the huge body of the ghost, and her eyes showed deep fear. She had no confidence in blocking even one attack from the terrifying destructive power displayed in his every move.

But what Laura did not expect was.

After the ghost was temporarily trapped, the vanguard members of Alice's adventure group cleared out the weak ghost monsters and began to attack the ghost.

"Are they crazy?"

As soon as this thought came to Laura's mind, she saw Morak, who was a little crazy just now, wearing thick and dazzling holy light armor, rushing out first.

Noticing Morak's figure, the ghost with a little smoke all over his body turned around quickly.

It observed the golden light that was constantly emitting around, and there seemed to be flames in its eyes.

Its huge body began to shrink gradually, and its body gradually became solid, and the green smoke from the burning all over its body was slowly disappearing.

It was no longer more than 10 meters tall like before, but the momentum it exuded was getting stronger and stronger, and it gave people a sense of tension that could not be looked at directly.

"In order to enhance the body's defense capabilities, the ghost will start a combat form that shrinks its body."

"In this case, its attack speed is extremely fast, and it has the ability to instantly appear behind the target and launch an attack."

"In this case, send out the unit with the strongest combat capability and attack it first."

Seeing this scene, Alice recalled the instructions of the lord during training and winked at Ashes beside her.

The latter tightly grasped the iron hammer emitting electric light and stared at Morak who rushed forward.

Once the opponent is in danger, he will rescue him as quickly as possible.

Feeling the terrifying aura exuding from the ghost, Morak, who was eager for a fierce battle, shouted without hesitation:

"Come on! Let's fight!"

Facing Morak's provocation, the red-eyed ghost appeared behind him instantly.

The deadly sharp blade was aimed at Morak's vest and pierced hard.

Bang!

The arc exploded, and the thunder shield surrounding Morak's body shattered after a burst of flashes.

The thunder shield with a defense value of 300 was instantly shattered by the ghost's fatal attack.

However, the dark red deadly blade stopped him.

Morak, who was aware of the fatal danger, also sensed this terrifying blow.

Not only did he have no intention of dodging, but he slashed back with his sword without hesitation.

Faced with this powerful and heavy blow, Ghost had no intention of resisting it.

It took two steps back lightly, dodged the heavy sword, skillfully walked around Morak's side, aimed at his waist, and stabbed him without hesitation.

Unable to dodge, Morak roared in panic, activated the surging thunder, and flew towards the ghost that was close at hand.

Feeling the faint "threat" brought by the thunder, the ghost stepped away lightly.

Snap!

The flashing thunder hit the ground, creating a deep crater the size of a washbasin.

Morak, who had his cards taken away in an instant, shouted at the top of his lungs without hesitation:

"Help!"

An ogre actually screams for help?

This is very bay collar!

But the ghost turned a deaf ear to the roar for help. With a perfect afterimage, it went around to the side and back of Morak, aimed at his waist on the other side, and stabbed him hard.

The roaring thunder warhammer spun and flew over.

The ghost, who showed no emotion, dodged easily and was about to attack Morak who turned around.

A galloping figure rushed in front of it at an alarming speed.

The long sword flashing with sharp cold light struck as fast as lightning.

Although the speed was slower than that of the ghost, it could barely keep up with its pace.

Ghost, who was unwilling to confront anyone head-on, jumped back lightly and avoided the attacks of the hammer and sword.

Alice, lingering in the electric light, hurriedly caught up with the ghost, waving two long swords flashing with cold light.

The rotating hammer flew back again, and Ashes grabbed it.

But he didn't dare to pursue him at all. He was back to back with Morak who was dripping with cold sweat. He couldn't help but tease him and said:

"Are you scared now? This means that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky..."

Unable to help scratching his neck, Morak couldn't help but swallow his saliva, searching for the two sentences he finally learned, and couldn't help but mutter:

"Ahem, that was just because I was unprepared..."

"Didn't you see that it was always dodging just now? It must be afraid of me!"

Even though he said that, Morak couldn't help but touch his bulging neck, and still felt a chill in his lower back.

Bang!

The terrifying blade and the long sword collided, causing a series of jumping sparks to fly.

Seeing the ghost's retreating steps, Alice, who had been actively attacking, stopped. She turned her left hand lightly and swung the bright long sword back.

Ding!

The surging counter-shock force came along the sword hilt and entered the glove. Most of it was introduced into the armor, and a small part was offset by the lining armor.

Only a very small and subtle force is transmitted to the wrist, allowing Alice to better understand the direction of the opponent's force.

But Alice also knows that the ghost's state is different from other enemies.

Its movement trajectory and power are completely different from those of flesh and blood creatures, and cannot be measured by common sense.

Therefore, Alice braced herself with all her might and concentrated on sensing the ghost's attack.

The ghost was extremely fast and attacked Alice's rear one after another.

Everyone's hearts were in their throats, fearing that Alice wouldn't be able to guard against it and would be stabbed to the core by the ghost.

Fortunately, although Alice's movements were a little slow, she still withstood the ghost's attack and persisted tenaciously.

A series of "ping ping ping pong" collision sounds.

Alice gradually became familiar with the attack patterns of the ghost, and her original nervousness gradually relaxed, and she was able to better resist the attacks launched by the ghost.

The longer it takes, the better it will be for the Gulf Territory.

Bang!

Another swift blow was blocked by Alice with her sword.

The flames in the ghost's eyes became more dazzling, and a surge of smoke emitted from its body.

Under the gaze of all the adventurers, the ghost actually split into three and surrounded Alice.

In each ghost's hand, he "grabbed" a curved and ferocious blade.

The sharp blade slides freely according to its will, as if it is part of its body.

Ghost had a good idea, but he underestimated the adventurers of the Gulf Territory.

The surging thunder and lightning rushed over and enveloped the three ghosts.

In a burst of explosion sound, the two ghosts shattered and turned into an invisible gray mist.

Only the remaining one, covered in green smoke, continued to swing his knife at Alice as if nothing had happened.

Bang!

Alice, who was thinking calmly, raised her sword to hold it, used her arms to push away the ghost's sharp blade, and quickly adjusted her steps to defend against another attack from the opponent.

During the high-pressure battle just now, Alice's ability to control her body and thunder magic armor rose to another level.

And the importance of basic combat skills has been raised a lot.

Seeing that the attack was fruitless, the ghost looked at the adventurers who gathered around him, and couldn't help but raise his head, with surging terrifying smoke coming out of his body.

Countless ghost monsters frantically drilled out of the ghost's body.

Under the irradiation of the purifying light, these ghost monsters are rapidly weakening at a speed visible to the naked eye.

But even so, they can hold on for at least three or four minutes, enough to surround the adventurers who rushed out.

The adventurers' faces changed drastically, and they tried to flee backwards without any choice, but were surrounded by the ghost monsters that emerged.

These hideous monsters roared silently and rushed forward.

Seeing the ghost monsters surrounding them, the adventurers tore open the scroll without hesitation, and the dazzling holy light spread rapidly, condensing into a thick shield on everyone's body.

Puff!

Snap!

Snap!

The ghost monster hit the shield fiercely, and the holy light shield shook, cracked a little, and the light became dim.

The adventurers retreated in a hurry, looking at the spreading gray fog, and couldn't help shouting:

"Be careful of the ghost, it's coming!"

"Run back quickly, don't come out."

"Why are you rushing out?"

"Continue to prepare spell scrolls!"

"..."

Seeing the adventurers in chaos, even if the ghost has not fully recovered consciousness, it feels that the persimmon should be picked on the soft.

It is now extremely eager for living souls!

With the surging mist, the ghost pounced on it.

Out of hunting instinct, it instantly flashed behind an adventurer.

The adventurer did not notice any danger and was running towards the purification barrier inside.

The deadly terrifying blade stabbed at the adventurer's vest.

Just one knife!

The ghost can directly take his life, take away his soul, and greedily absorb nutrients!

Just when the ghost was about to succeed, it suddenly found that everything around it had fallen into a state of stillness.

The terrifying and invisible force paused the time here.

The ghost tried to resist this force, but found that it could not compete with it.

The remaining reason began to dissipate rapidly, and the killing instinct and madness immediately took over.

The strange gray-purple light emanated from the ghost stubbornly, twisting the surrounding space bit by bit, as if to make a way for it to move.

Unfortunately, the ghost's move was doomed to be in vain.

A tall figure appeared behind it.

The slightly flickering golden light continued to be injected into the staff in Matthew's hand.

The time stillness blessed by the divine power suppressed the ghost!

Even if it has become an evil thing, it cannot be measured by common sense.

A gust of wind blew from above.

Yaya's huge figure fell on the barrier, passed the test very easily, and flexibly drilled into the barrier.

Seeing the adventurers surrounded by ghost monsters, Yaya exuded the obscure power of time. With the connection with Matthew, he flicked his claws and "took" all the adventurers and supplies out.

After leaving the time-still area, the adventurers suddenly recovered.

"Ah? Lord Lord and Lord Yaya took action?"

"What happened just now?"

"Huh, it should be a time spell, this is really terrifying."

"Ha, this is a good thing, the enemy should be afraid."

"Our mission is completed, this time we can get at least 5,000 points of merit!"

"Hehe, just now it was really scary..."

"It's really terrible, how can there be legendary monsters in the Death Desert?"

"Legendary level? Legendary level is not that strong!"

"Indeed, even if it is a legendary monster, killing us can't be as easy as killing a chicken, it can do it..."

"..."

The adventurers who resumed their activities discussed non-stop, and many of them turned back to look at the legendary purification barrier.

Alice adjusted her breathing and shouted as fast as she could:

"Everyone, pack up your things and prepare for battle again."

"The battle is not over yet, cooperate to clean up the ghost monsters around."

"We must hold on until the arrival of the follow-up troops, and at the same time protect the battlefield for the Lord and Lord Yaya..."

The adventurers who reacted immediately put aside their previous thoughts and devoted themselves to the next battle.

At present, these ghost monsters are besieging the purification barrier, and they don't notice them at all. They are living targets!

Every time you kill one, you will not only get a task reward, but also a trophy.

It's a good time to pick up money!

Matthew didn't pay attention to the battle outside.

All his attention was focused on the ghost who was slowly fighting against the power of time.

The ghost is indeed an evil creature, and it can actually fight against the power of time under the blessing of divine power to a certain extent.

However, Matthew, who has further developed the blood of the Candle Dragon, has a lot of reserves of time power, which can be slowly consumed by the ghost.

Yaya, who sent the adventurers out, did not start immediately.

She checked the integrity of the legendary purification array, expertly repaired the damaged parts, maintained the stability of the purification array, and added high-quality energy crystals to it.

In order to set up this trap, the Bay Territory has invested millions of gold coins in materials, so it is naturally not the time to be stingy.

After confirming that the ghost could not escape from here, Yaya focused on cleaning up the gray fog that filled the surrounding area.

She opened her mouth, relaxed her body, and took a deep breath.

Whoops!

The surging flames spread quickly, and the terrifying fire light directly swept away the surrounding area.

On the tiny red crystals, seven or eight soul crystals fell sporadically.

The scorching high temperature is radiating light and heat wantonly, causing ripples to form in the surrounding air.

In the purification barrier, only Matthew, Yaya and Ghost were left.

Matthew slowly stepped away first, and landed lightly on the opposite side of the ghost. The gleaming thunder magic armor stirred up flickering arcs of electricity.

He interrupted "Time Stands Still" and released the ghost again.

"Roar……!"

The silent roar spread to the surroundings, and the weird soul impact bypassed Matthew.

"Ding, you are attacked by the legendary spell "Wail of the Banshee", and the spell impact is being determined..."

"Intelligence determination, 18:40..."

"Intelligence judgment failed!"

"Soul determination, legendary intermediate level: demigod intermediate level..."

"Soul judgment failed!"

"The spell impact determination failed..."

"You are not affected by the negative effects of Banshee's Wail..."

"You have lost a total of 12 health points..."

The ghost that released the "Banshee's Wail" instantly came behind Matthew.

Ding!

With a crisp sound, the sneak attack ghost flew backwards, and his whole body floated into the air.

Matthew, who was wielding his sword, turned around and noticed the ghost swooping down.

Two dark red Mordenkainen swords flew towards the ghost under Matthew's control.

The specter, who was temporarily unable to teleport, faced the speeding sword of Mordenkainen and slashed it down without hesitation.

The moment the terrifying blade collided with Mordenkainen's sword, the latter exploded instantly.

Boom!

The extremely powerful elemental storm instantly enveloped the ghosts who were unable to dodge.

Another Mordenkainen sword pierced into it instantly!

Before Matthew could continue to detonate, extremely subtle spatial fluctuations appeared behind him.

The seemingly unchanged ghost came out and stabbed Matthew in the lower back.

"Why does this guy like to pierce his waist so much?"

Matthew's reaction speed was extremely fast, unlike Alice's nervousness, and he easily withstood the ghost's attack.

The powerful impact force even forced the ghost to retreat.

In the battle between strength and agility, Matthew, who has 35 legendary upper limit attributes, gained an absolute advantage.

His eyes exuded a sharp light, and he was constantly analyzing the many "secrets" of the ghost.

The ghosts, who were surrounded by mist, attacked Matthew one after another, but he easily blocked them all.

Matthew could clearly "see" the various attributes of the ghost revealed one by one.

ten minutes later.

Matthew obtained all the information about the ghost and also mastered part of the "secret" of this strange evil thing.

Evaluation: A lonely soul carrying countless hopes and unwilling to leave!

The special attribute panel gave Matthew a big surprise.

You know, "evil things" are a very special kind of existence.

Their birth is very harsh and full of all kinds of weird and twisted powers.

Even in previous games, players could only accumulate various information collected during battles.

Only through complex calculations and comparisons can the properties of the "evil object" be discovered step by step.

But to deal with this special and terrifying monster, data and information are extremely important.

When players open up wasteland, they usually have to spend a huge amount of money.

Filling it with human life is just a basic operation!

That's still a game. In the more real and dangerous real world, the Gulf Territory can no longer use such "rogue" methods.

Matthew learned about the ghost-Mercury.

Only by spending the minimum cost and resources can we lay out the most targeted and effective trap!

Otherwise, the other party would not be trapped by the Gulf Territory so easily.

Matthew remembered it very clearly, before breaking the connection between Ghost and Mist.

It can replenish strength and vitality anytime and anywhere, and can carry out large-scale transfer and concealment.

Just finding the ghost's true body is an extremely difficult problem.

The resources spent are secondary. The loss of elite personnel is the consumption that Matthew and the Bay Lord cannot afford.

The powerful effect displayed by data.

Being able to produce effects on evil creatures like the Phantom Ghost means that most evil creatures cannot escape his "sight".

With accurate information, it will be much easier for the Bay Lord to make targeted preparations.

Various thoughts flashed through Matthew's mind, and he quickly gathered his mind and devoted himself to the confrontation with the Phantom Ghost.

Even if the Phantom Ghost has surging life energy and shadow power, it still cannot pose too much threat to Matthew when almost all attributes are at an absolute disadvantage.

Even if the impact of the Phantom Ghost's shadow power will cause a certain degree of health loss to Matthew.

But its attack can never be implemented, and it cannot cause a greater threat to Matthew, and continuous burst damage.

With the self-healing ability and the 35 points of strong constitution that reaches the legendary limit.

In just a blink of an eye, Matthew can recover.

Matthew took on the pressure of the quick attack brought by the Phantom Ghost and constantly adapted to his current body and combat effectiveness.

The improvement of combat effectiveness is not just a numerical increase, but also a comprehensive consideration of combat experience and on-the-spot performance.

It is rare to encounter an opponent like the Phantom Ghost who is "thick-skinned and thick-fleshed" and can bring pressure to himself.

Matthew naturally has to use it as a whetstone to hone himself well!

After realizing that ordinary attacks can hardly do anything to Matthew, the Phantom Ghost decisively changed its tactics.

The dark red light all over its body became more and more dazzling, and its momentum became stronger and stronger.

Matthew even "saw" that the various attributes of the Phantom Ghost were constantly improving.

However, Matthew was happy to see the changes that happened to the Phantom Ghost.

The changes that happened to the Phantom Ghost at this time were like those deformed monsters that Matthew had "seen".

By absorbing a large amount of vitality, the temporary strengthening of physical strength is completed.

The Phantom Ghost is not an evil creature of flesh and blood, and can complete such changes by absorbing the power of the soul.

But Matthew cut off its connection with the fog and most ghost monsters.

Therefore, the Phantom Ghost can only consume the energy stored in its body to complete such a forced upgrade.

According to Matthew's research and calculations.

The consumption of forced upgrade and distortion in battle is a hundred times or even a thousand times that of normal training and enhanced upgrade!

The Phantom Ghost cannot last too long with such consumption, nor can it reach too amazing a height.

Matthew was even more excited, just expecting the Phantom Ghost to bring him more pressure.

The Phantom Ghost's enhancement process lasted for two minutes.

Matthew, who was paying attention to the whole process, did not choose to take action, and watched it complete the enhancement of all attributes +3.

The Phantom Ghost, which was emitting red light, attacked Matthew again.

The Phantom Ghost instantly appeared behind Matthew, flashing a dazzling red light, almost completely covering it.

Bang!

The deadly terrifying blade was blocked by the arm guard swung by Matthew, only a few shining sparks were wiped out.

The powerful impact force pushed the Phantom Ghost away.

However, it changed the trajectory of action in mid-air, and instantly flew to the side of Matthew, instinctively stabbing his waist!

Crack!

The flashing thunder struck the ghost.

Its swift movement paused, and cracks appeared on its armor.

With just this slight delay, the golden sword slashed over and chopped the ghost's chest.

The ghost's real body suddenly turned into an illusion, avoiding the attack of the sword in a strange way.

The ghost not only did not retreat, but seized the opportunity to get close to Matthew, and aimed the deadly terrifying blade at his head.

When the attack was about to get close, the illusory blade turned into a real weapon!

The left hand accurately blocked the terrifying blade and blocked the heavy blow with the help of the arm guard.

The flashing thunder jumped up and hit the ghost's chest like a living thing.

The ghost, wrapped in lightning, showed a fearless attitude and continued to attack Matthew.

Bang!

The ghost's whole body flew backwards in an instant.

A jab after blocking not only destroyed the Phantom's attack, but also distanced himself from it again.

The violent Phantom rushed over like a mad dog.

Matthew not only used weapons to fight it, but also tried various methods to fight against this hideous evil creature.

Of course, the reason why Matthew could resist so easily was because he activated the enhanced combat amplification of the Thunder Magic Armor.

The Thunder Magic Armor has excellent protection ability, which can withstand most of the Phantom's shadow power, allowing Matthew to withstand the Phantom's attack in an extremely tough way.

Hardness cannot last long, and softness cannot be defended!

The Phantom's blind attack will always be interrupted by Matthew's head-on attack.

Matthew's flexible attack and defense conversion can not only limit the Phantom's offensive, but also survive the opponent's "violent" time.

15 minutes later.

The Phantom, who was dark all over, habitually flashed behind Matthew.

The big hand full of gaps stabbed out as fast as lightning and grabbed the Phantom's neck.

The surging thunder penetrated into it.

The ghost, with green smoke all over its body, twisted and struggled madly.

But before it could break free, a clear and shocking sound suddenly rang out in the air.

"Seal!"

Five golden chains stretched out from the back of the ghost, and tied it up before it could react.

Until then, an old man in swordsman's clothes slowly showed up.

And the ghost that was struggling just now has been "taken" into his hands.

On the back of his hand, a dark purple tattoo and ghostly shadow slowly spread to his arm.

Phantom-Mercury, captured!
