Chapter 257 Abyss·Gaze of Fear
Just as Jack and his party came out of the dungeon, they encountered an ambush. On the other side, Brooke was fighting a fierce battle in front of Cronstone's office.
With more than a hundred elites versus twenty dozen office guards and some staff, there is indeed an overwhelming advantage. On Brook's side, including himself, there are a total of 103 senior professionals, as well as the tribesmen who came to help spontaneously in the city. Their total number is more than four times the strength of the other party.
In terms of strength, only three of the opponent's guards are high-level professionals, and the rest are intermediate. Some of those who work in offices have considerable strength, but they are still far out of reach compared to Brooke. What's more, some people here have no intention of fighting and only care about escaping for their lives, and many of them escaped in a short time. Only the guards and some people from 'TIHB' were left among them.
"Ah!!!" Brooke roared, and all his fighting spirit was poured into his Sea Serpent Spear, and he swept across it fiercely, knocking away the two knights in front of him.
Theoretically speaking, among the professions below the sixth level, warriors are the weakest, because their fighting spirit has not yet formed. What they can do is to strengthen their bodies and add additional damage. Senior warriors and senior knights In comparison, it is much inferior. But this must be just a theory after all. It is people who really determine the outcome of the battlefield.
The Danluer tribe lost their leader, and the leader’s granddaughter was captured again. The skinned old woman must have a great connection with them. Now the two kinds of hatred are added together, and their hearts are full of sadness and resentment. They are determined to save Winnie, the granddaughter of the patriarch, to the death. At this moment, they had an absolute advantage, and excitement surged in their hearts. They shouted and charged towards the office building.
Brooke pointed his gun at 'Hallet' who ran to the roof of the building at some point: "How did you get there, do you want to escape?"
"Escape? Hahaha, you are so joking. "Hallet" said disdainfully: "You think you are proud of killing so many people?"
"What are you saying?" Bullshit." Brooke shouted angrily, clearing away the two people in front of him.
'Hallet' snorted coldly: "I wouldn't understand even if I told you, an idiot."
Brook and the others really didn't understand, but some of the staff who didn't escape during the battle suddenly understood. For a long time, although 'Bogand' Paroka had let Cullenstone take charge of almost all political affairs in the city, he actually placed many people under him as spies. These people Cullenstone could not move and could only stay. This was one of the reasons why Cullenstone wanted to help Cuishan.
'Halert' has always been sandwiched between the first and second tier heads. Although he is the disciple of the second tier head, it is the first one who actually controls the entire 'TIHB' The leader is Cullenstone, so he is taking this opportunity to do a few things for Cullenstone, hoping that Cullenstone will not care about his identity.
For him, the Danluer people in front of him did not seem to pose a threat at all. On the contrary, he felt that the informants of the city lords were more important.
As a conspirator, aside from the identity of 'Halert', he is indeed a very strategic person, because he can tell who is the enemy that should really be paid attention to. Of course, he still doesn't know that the fake Bogan is dead, and there is no longer any problem with the following staff members.
Downstairs, those who were still blocking the fight immediately stopped fighting. Many of them didn't have to fight to the death for this, but if something happened to the office building, they wouldn't be able to explain it to Cullenstone.
But now when I heard what 'Hallet' said, I was about to turn against him. Someone shouted: "That old bastard Cullenstone has always regarded us as a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh. There are many important things. We were not allowed to participate in anything, even though we had known that. He said he would pull us out, but he didn’t want to kill us. It’s just that you were too stupid to tell us the truth, so don’t blame us.”
The staff guards quickly joined in. Among Brooke's group, since the other party wants to kill them, they naturally want to retaliate.
Brooke killed several people who were secretly 'TIHB' and shouted to 'Hallet': "Now that you are alone and helpless, hand over the granddaughter of our patriarch as soon as possible!" Hahahaha..."'Hallet' laughed again : "Isolated and helpless? Humph, do you think I said this just to watch you defect? It's so ridiculous that you fools still think you are sure of victory, but you don't know that you have fallen into my trap."
"Trap?" Brooke was stunned and understood: "You..." Although it happened many years ago, he remembered what kind of magician the other party was and shouted in panic: "Run, run quickly. Get out of here."
"It's useless, you can't run away."'Hallet's eyes. As soon as he closed and opened his eyes, a layer of strange light suddenly appeared in his eyes: "Taste the fear controlled by the mind, the abyss·horror gaze!"
Several green rays suddenly appeared in mid-air. Dark light and several rays of light intertwined with each other, forming a huge magic circle that enveloped everyone downstairs. Two symbols, upper ♀ and lower ♂, appeared in the magic circle, and then two human eyes opened in the center of the circle. These eyes stared at the crowd below, emitting a frightening light.
The level of magic can be seen from the array of light it displays. The more powerful the magic, the more complex the magic aura it displays, and with different levels, there are different levels in the magic aura. The different characteristics within it can be recognized at a glance. This magic circle halo is constructed with multiple lines, and there are magic words and magic visions in it. This is a typical feature of super magic.
Be able to use super magic, although in theory, any level of magician can learn it. But in fact, if I want to finish reciting the super magic words with my mouth, whether it is recited mentally or verbally, I am afraid that it may not be possible to finish reciting it in more than ten minutes. Therefore, those who can truly control super magic must be above the strength of a red-robed magician, because only they can move at will. It is obvious that this 'Hallet' branch has at least the strength of the red-robed great magician.
The people downstairs looked up at the huge magic circle, and after looking into the eyes in the circle, their hearts suddenly burst, and nameless fear suddenly surged into their hearts. Everyone's face was filled with fear, as if they had been greatly frightened, or they had seen something they were most afraid of, and they were all so frightened that they couldn't even move.
Most of the people in the formation became like this. They fell to the ground, scared and trembling. But there are still a few people still standing among them, and Brooke is one of them.
"Such... such strong mental pressure!" Brooke gritted his teeth. Even though he tried his best to overcome the fear in his heart, his body could not help but tremble a little.
Although mental and spiritual magic is also transmitted through magic, if you want to avoid being affected by this kind of magic, it is useless no matter how strong you are physically. You must have a strong mind. If the mind is not strong enough and the willpower is not firm enough, even a demon warrior or even a titled knight may be defeated by a high-level or even intermediate-level psychic magician.
However, for spiritual magic, the resistance of real warriors will be higher, because the fighting spirit they have worked hard to cultivate must be built with a strong mind. Therefore, Bing Zhixie always told Alice that a real strong person is not only strong in strength, but also mentally strong.
In the professional advanced examination, except for warriors, other professions do not require willpower.
'Hallet' had known that not all people would be suppressed by fear, because mental pressure is not directly proportional to magic power, or even has nothing to do with it. Magic is nothing more than a medium for spiritual power. Therefore, some of the stronger ones fell down, and some of the weaker ones were able to overcome their fear, but there are not many people who are still standing now.
"What's the use of having more people? They just come here to be killed by me!" Amid Hallert's cold laughter, some people wearing ordinary clothes appeared around the office, but in fact they were TIHB' people. Although there were not many people, only a dozen or so, killing those who were feared under the formation was no different from killing an incompetent baby.
