Although beavers are not aggressive creatures, they can even be called timid, and their ability to defend themselves is extremely weak.

But their extremely sharp teeth can easily tear through large trees and even build dams in fast-flowing rivers.

Coupled with the lightning-fast movements of the spirit body.

Ivan, who was desperately entangled by the evil spirits, had just killed three of them with his sword, when a wooden stake was directly chewed up by the densely packed "beaver" spirits.

The invisible barrier breaks down immediately!

Whoosh——

The evil spirit that found it impossible to possess Ivan stopped doing useless work and endured the burning of the sun and turned into white mist and flew out directly.

Alvin stepped forward and waved his sword.

Phew! Phew! Phew!...

The sword blade stained with holy water only cut off part of the mist on it, but the effect was extremely limited for such an evil spirit whose body was composed of many souls.

Maybe it's not as damaging as the sunset's continuous burning...

Although I have not studied whether there are levels within evil spirits, Ivan feels that the level of this evil spirit should be similar to the seven "murderers" he encountered.

They all belong to the kind of weird spirits that possess some evil spirit characteristics and are on the same level as second-level human supernatural beings.

But this "evil spirit that lost a child" is even more elusive than the "murderous ghosts" that have been transformed by evil gods for special purposes and look like ghosts but more like humans.

Although its direct lethality is an absolute weakness, its special abilities of possession, atomization, differentiation... make it extremely capable of saving lives!

This is also the main reason why Ivan prepared to restrict it with a spiritual barrier from the beginning.

In order to hunt the "Evil Spirit Dust", even though Alvin and Milan thought they had made sufficient preparations, at this time, due to their lack of experience in fighting the spirit body, they accidentally let it slip out.

No wonder many indigenous tribes also worship these named evil spirits in addition to the orthodox totems.

It's like a dog-skin plaster that sticks to you and you can't pull it off. It makes you sick and annoying to death, and the cost of getting rid of them is too high. In the end, you simply compromised and traded your faith for peace.

The only good news is that "Pocatello" has also not acquired the immortal nature of evil spirits, and is still afraid of the sun.

At the same time, after giving instructions in the spiritual connection with Milan, a silver dagger engraved with blue runes and inlaid with pure sapphires was dropped at his feet.

The shadow surged and disappeared in an instant.

"Kaka...kaka..."

The dagger has been taken away by "Kaka" hidden in Aiwen's shadow.

It has been more than three months since it was born, and the little lizard is growing very fast.

Especially after Ivan simulated the shadow world environment on the ship and successfully cultivated the seeds of the eggplant-like plants he collected, he fed them with the flesh and blood of demonized creatures in the material world and even the occasional essence fruit.

The lizard, which was originally no more than a forearm long, has grown to one and a half meters as quickly as if it were inflated.

At first glance, I thought it was a small crocodile.

From this, we can basically conclude that this guy’s parents should be giant lizards like Godzilla, and the future is promising!

In particular, its intelligence grows extremely fast, at least it is much smarter than its stupid cold-blooded animal cousins, and it can already complete some simple tasks independently.

Ivan is very much looking forward to its further performance when he can use the "Blood Transformation" series of witchcraft after he is promoted to an official wizard.

Woo——

The atomized evil spirit in front suddenly disappeared in front of Ivan.

at the same time.

Having already moved to the crowd in the sun, an indigenous man holding a musket smiled ferociously and suddenly pointed the gun at Ivan.

Obviously, even after losing its host body like "Brown Bear Warrior", this murderous evil spirit never thought of giving up.

Even because Alvin has never hunted his "child" beaver, he cannot use the established rules to kill people or possess him with a curse.

But of course we must try our best to kill this "outsider" who is doing bad things for us!

boom--!

Fiery lead bullets flew towards Ivan.

but.

Unless it is a dense array of muskets, sporadic shootings like this are no longer any threat to Ivan now.

clang!

With a slight swing of the sword, the incoming lead bullets were directly deflected away by the spine of the sword.

Even though he was more than ten meters away, Alvin came to this native in just one step.

However, the possessed evil spirits are emboldened.

He threw away the empty musket, pulled out the steel dagger he had exchanged for fur from his waist, and traced it back and forth on his chest, as if he was thinking about where would be the best place to skin him.

This is obviously where those bloody "skinless men" came from.

Through the eyes of the native, you can still see the frightened look of the original owner of the body. Even in the possessed state, he was fully aware of everything that happened to him.

provocative!

The meaning is obvious: 'There are so many objects here that can be possessed. Who can be saved faster, or can I kill them faster?'

That is, as an evil spirit, taking away the life and death of human beings!

Just like humans do to beavers!

Boom! Boom! Boom!...

Among the crowds who were hiding nearby, the tribal leader couldn't help but beat the tambourine again.

But he no longer has the ability to summon the power of the "Spirit of the Giant Bear", and only stimulates the power of the ritual tambourine named "Teponaster" itself.

【Shamanism·Requiem Drum!】

He hopes to use this to stabilize the souls of the tribesmen and prevent others from being possessed by evil spirits. However, it is difficult to say how effective it will be.

So Alvin decided to use his own method:

"I'm sorry, I have to apologize to everyone first!"

A wave of his hand scatters a patch of flat brown seeds.

flo——

In the green magic aura, seeds exploded one after another, and a large winding vine with green leaves grew rapidly, like a snake, tying up all the personnel except the main combat forces, Milan, Gary, and Apsova.

.

Of course, it also includes... the three arakkoa who have joined together and have the rank of apprentice knight.

"ah--!"

Even though they had extraordinary reach, they were not prepared for the fact that Ivan, who was obviously one of their own in a navy uniform, would suddenly attack them and be easily subdued.

Creak... creak...

For those who are tied up, not to mention skinning themselves, even simple breathing requires all their strength.

This is still the result of Alvin's intentional control. By using the [activated plants] from the seeds he cultivated, he can achieve complete control, even if he directly breaks the bones of these ordinary people, it is easy.

This move is a huge blow to the bottom of the pot.

If the evil spirit dares to continue to possess me, I will only experience the powerlessness of being a silkworm chrysalis, and no one can hurt me.

At least until now, it has not shown the ability to directly kill the possessed person with its thoughts.

Now everyone is in the sun, out of the shadows.

Aiwen took out the holy water again.

If it wants to avoid being burned by the sun, it can only choose a person who has hunted beavers to possess it again, or... it can temporarily retreat.

Understanding that Aiwen's approach was the most correct choice, Apsova did not intervene, but shook his brows fiercely.

I thought that Gary, who was huge and wearing heavy armor of pure steel, would be the strongest among these people. I didn’t expect that this young-looking Phaletis tribesman, in addition to being superior in force, was also a powerful man.

The spell caster!

The power of these outsiders goes far beyond the superficial muskets and artillery...

The intention of skinning "himself" failed, and "Pocatello" could not move. He glared fiercely at Alvin who was gradually approaching him, looked at the "holy water" in his hand, and finally did not choose to remain in a stalemate.

"Kekeke...kekeke..."

A weird laugh came from his throat, like teeth fighting.

Later.

Bang——

The possessed native fell to the ground, and the evil spirit had escaped.

Although his heart was filled with resentment and hatred for the world, even his limited wisdom made him make a wise choice not to continue the stalemate.

Moreover, the entire Pocatello is within the scope of one’s activities, and the days and days are long.
To be continued...
