The attempt at a mental assault had no effect on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The magical flames continued to burn with intensity. Within moments, the spirit was completely consumed, leaving no trace behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the enemy destroyed, the flames receded, returning to Ethan's back and reforming into an ordinary-looking cloak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything returned to how it had been before, as if nothing had happened at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The deck was silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The best method for dealing with undead was holy energy, as it embodied absolute positive force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next in effectiveness was natural energy, overflowing with life and vitality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fire wasn't necessarily weaker than natural energy, it had its own strengths and weaknesses. In terms of pure lethality, fire magic was only slightly less effective than holy energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan had never mastered true holy power. The artificial version he had previously developed was good enough for deceiving Wilson, but its effectiveness against actual undead was limited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So instead of relying on a weaker imitation, he chose fire, a force he was already highly proficient in controlling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the first time his flame-cloak had been used offensively in this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Philip and the others were stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had thought Ethan's cloak was just a simple piece of clothing. Never had they imagined it was a powerful magical artifact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still wearing his glasses, Ethan continued scanning for other undead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly noticed something strange, the moment he had destroyed the first spirit, the remaining ones began to move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They weren't moving along the ship's corridors like normal beings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were moving freely, ignoring the physical structure of the ship entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They can phase through solid matter freely. That's going to be annoying.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, Ethan's magic wand and fire cloak both delivered pure energy attacks, perfect for obliterating these creatures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he were using conventional weapons, his attacks would likely just pass right through them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he had confirmed the best method of attack, these undead didn't seem so threatening anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan was about to engage the next spirit when he noticed something else—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ambient negative energy in the air was rising rapidly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A warning flashed on his glasses' display:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Caution: High concentrations of negative energy detected. Prolonged exposure may have unpredictable effects on biological subjects. Recommended action—evacuate immediately.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan ignored the warning and focused on analyzing the energy instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The negative energy wasn't just floating in the air, it was actively trying to invade his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mental attack? Or maybe mental pollution?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His spiritual power was strong enough to resist the influence, but the others behind him were not so lucky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan could already see subtle changes in their expressions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The increasing negativity was affecting their minds and also slowly draining their physical stamina.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they stayed here for too long, they wouldn't even need to be attacked, the energy alone would eventually kill them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan quickly pulled out several protective charms from his storage and handed them over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take these. Keep them on you at all times.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The charms were simple defensive tools, nothing particularly powerful, but they were enough to block out passive negative energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That would at least keep them from collapsing before the real fight even started.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the mental interference…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan realized that the scene around him was changing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ship's worn-down wooden walls twisted and warped, shifting into something far more decrepit and ominous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire space felt distorted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even more concerning—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cabin door ahead of him, which had only been a few steps away, now appeared hundreds of meters in the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Spatial magic?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan quickly dismissed that possibility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn't felt even the slightest fluctuation of space-based energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which meant…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This isn't real. It's a mental illusion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan closed his eyes, focusing his mind inward to examine himself. It didn't take long to pinpoint the anomaly, an elusive, almost intangible energy lingering within him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rather than attempting to invade his mind directly, this energy deliberately avoided his spiritual defenses, instead embedding itself in his body to manipulate his senses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Opening his eyes, he activated his glasses and scanned his surroundings again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The readings showed that the undead had not moved at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were still exactly where they had been before, which meant—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tsk… Illusions.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were several types of illusions. Some worked by directly altering an opponent's senses, tricking them into making the wrong judgments. Others created false images to manipulate visual perception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first method was more invasive, but easier to resist for those with strong mental power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second method was harder to dispel, though its effectiveness wasn't as great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These undead had combined both methods, making the illusion more immersive and harder to detect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even after removing the energy affecting his body, the distorted scene in front of Ethan remained unchanged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, as he walked forward, he noticed something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The environment shifted in sync with his movements, adjusting to maintain the illusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Interesting. It's persistent, but not adaptive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To test their reaction, Ethan fired an energy blast from his wand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He focused his spiritual power into the attack, watching closely to see how the undead would respond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, the energy blast looked normal in his vision, moving rapidly across the ship's deck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the reality was different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, the blast was moving in slow motion, its energy gradually being eroded by an unknown force. Before it could hit anything, it dissipated completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his illusion-altered vision, however, the attack appeared to fly normally before fading due to distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So that's how it works…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan had spent most of his time studying spiritual power and improving his raw combat ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His understanding of illusions and mental interference was comparatively shallow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the cursed ring Zul had given him had gone completely unused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This experience made him realize just how useful these kinds of techniques could be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If used correctly, illusions can be incredibly effective…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, Ethan was not the type to engage in drawn-out battles of wit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What he preferred was a straightforward and overwhelming approach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't need to unravel the illusion, he just needed to obliterate it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gripping his wand, he slammed it into the ground with force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, he raised his right hand, making a precise motion as if grasping something in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His palm hovered above the wand, fingers flexing in concentration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In response to his actions, blue lines of magical energy surged across the wand's shaft.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The glow spread rapidly, forming a circular magic array beneath his feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, a second, smaller array appeared at the wand's tip, mirroring the intricate patterns now etched into Ethan's right hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A surge of pure energy erupted outward, sending a powerful shockwave through the deck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Philip and the others, unprepared for the sudden blast, were knocked back several steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Strangely, from Ethan's perspective, they had barely moved only shifting slightly within the illusion's distortion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Philip stared in disbelief as the energy gathered at the wand's tip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with his years of experience sailing the seas, he had never encountered anything like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sheer power radiating from Ethan's spell sent a chill down his spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can someone this young… really control such terrifying magic?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Philip wasn't the only one shaken, Sean and Stephen also felt the unmistakable pressure of immense magical energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A part of Philip feared that if Ethan lost control, they wouldn't need the undead to kill them, they'd be obliterated instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, when he looked at Ethan's calm and focused expression, he couldn't detect even the slightest sign of strain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the energy reached its peak, Ethan noticed something on his glasses' display.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several negative energy sources from below deck were rising, attempting a sneak attack from beneath their feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Smart,\" Ethan muttered, his tone laced with sarcasm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They've realized the power of my artillery.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes flicked downward in disdain, but he didn't move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Too bad for them, I already prepared for this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This attack method was something Ethan had developed by combining various technologies, magical knowledge, and Tony Stark's expertise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a pure energy-based offensive spell, but it came with a drawback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It required time to charge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During that window, Ethan was vulnerable to interruptions and counterattacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To compensate, he had integrated multiple layers of defensive magic into the spell's activation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The glowing magic array beneath his feet wasn't just for show.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the undead lunged upward, attempting to phase through the deck, they slammed directly into an invisible barrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The solid energy wall repelled them instantly, inflicting heavy damage on their incorporeal forms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The impact was so severe that several of them were instantly destroyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remaining undead, realizing the situation was turning against them, changed tactics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of attacking from below, they rushed onto the deck, surrounding Ethan and the others from all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan barely even glanced at them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Too late.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His glasses displayed their every movement, and more importantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They highlighted a single entity that had remained stationary this entire time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It hadn't moved once, yet its negative energy signature was the strongest of them all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan knew immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's the real target.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a final sharp movement, Ethan raised his wand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The magic circle on his right hand connected seamlessly with the one at the wand's tip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment they aligned, a massive energy conduit formed, linking the two points with a series of intricate symbols and sigils.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wand's glowing magic circle expanded dramatically, its runes shifting into even more complex patterns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan's voice rang out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Locking on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The energy at the wand's core pulsed, the final phase had begun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, with a single decisive command, he released the spell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fire!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The condensed energy, now at full charge, surged forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A blinding beam of pure magical force erupted, streaking directly toward the source of the negative energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For every
