Chapter 483: It dares to scold me?!
When he was first projected over, Ang didn't have the ability to project power, but as his soul became stronger, especially after "self-belief," his soul was equivalent to being riveted to this world, becoming a fulcrum for his main body in this world.
His power could be projected into this body, and then projected onto his subjects and subordinate gods. And as his strength became stronger and stronger, and there were more and more local believers, the divine power harvested here was enough to support his high-intensity consumption, completely without needing to use the power of his main body.
So when he heard Anthony call him, he came over, looking at a scarecrow in front of him with a blank face.
Sensing Ang's confusion, Anthony quickly explained: "Scarecrow Scarecrow Wuga, the most dangerous undead creature, masters the Truth Domain, can make people lost in its domain illusion, and never come out. My lord, what do you see?"
"Scarecrow," Ang replied.
"Phew—that's good, that's good. It seems its spiritual power is not as strong as yours. Its Truth Domain can't affect you. What I see is an undead. It was too dangerous just now. Fortunately, you came quickly. If I were accidentally affected by the Truth Domain, it would be difficult to pull myself out," Anthony said with lingering fear.
Don't blame him for calling for help as soon as they met, because this Scarecrow Scarecrow Wuga was a dangerous existence that both the Undead Council and the Warlock Alliance had warned him to be careful of. The information collected by Silver Coin from the Home of the Departed and the newly established network of contacts also confirmed this from the side. Scarecrow Scarecrow Wuga was extremely dangerous.
Its danger didn't mean it was evil and cruel. On the contrary, it was a very peaceful soul, with no desires, and its only obsession was chasing birds.
Its danger lay in the fact that it was uncontrollable. It was a scarecrow, originally just standing in the rice field to drive away birds and beasts. But very magically, a soul was born in the scarecrow.
One day, the Undead King passed by this field and discovered the soul in the scarecrow, feeling very curious. Why could a soul be born in straw? So he brought it back.
From then on, the scarecrow was equivalent to being raised by the Undead King, growing into an extremely powerful soul. Its soul strength had touched the level of the Mourning Lord, and it was just a little bit away from breaking through.
However, its intelligence wasn't very high, equivalent to a golden skeleton, and its obsession was very heavy. It spent all day chasing birds. I don't know if it was because of this reason, so it awakened the Truth Domain, a kind of domain illusion that could produce real damage to enemies.
When the Undead King was still there, someone restrained it, or someone went to rescue the guys trapped by its Truth Domain, so there was no harm. Now the King was trapped by the Silence Array, and no one restrained it, so the problem became serious.
"Truth Domain?" Ang asked in confusion.
"Yes, my lord. Besides the scarecrow, what else do you see now?" Anthony asked.
"Scarecrow, canyon, loose stones," Ang said.
Anthony pulled Ge Lei over and asked: "Ge Lei, what do you see?"
Ge Lei said somewhat blankly: "I see a wilderness, a flat wilderness, an undead holding a scythe staring at us. But weren't we in the canyon just now? How did we get here?"
Ang suddenly understood. His spiritual power was strong, so what he saw wasn't affected, but Ge Lei couldn't. She had already been affected by the scarecrow's domain illusion.
This process was silent, and even an Arcane Mage like Ge Lei couldn't distinguish between reality and illusion, only confused about why they had suddenly come to the wilderness from the canyon.
Is it this fun? Ang immediately combined the marks and said to Anthony: "Projection array, form one."
"Ah? It wouldn't be..." Anthony was stunned for a moment, and quickly formed a projection array. This was far easier than a teleportation array, almost equivalent to a positioning mark.
The projection array flashed with white light, and Ang's four transmitted over.
"Sure enough, rubbing a teleportation array by hand can still be used like this. It's really too convenient." Although he had some expectations, Anthony was still excited.
Didn't this mean that in the future, when calling for help, not only could my lord project over, but he could also come personally to save him? The sense of security increased greatly, didn't it?
As the white light faded, the little zombie, the little angel, and the big cat all let out exclamations:
"Awoo!"
"Awoo awoo!"
"Awoo~"
Anthony heard that the voices were wrong, and quickly asked: "What did you see?"
"Awoo!" The little zombie pointed forward.
"Awoo awoo!" The little angel pointed to the side, and then fiercely pushed forward, and a beam of light flashed over.
Ever since she tried releasing Holy Light Flash without wings in Magic Star City, the little angel seemed to have found something fun, desperately compressing the power of Holy Light Flash.
The power of this kind of Holy Light Flash was equivalent to a level 6 light-type magic Light Arrow, and with her strength, she could release it ten or twenty times in a row.
Before, she could only play once, but now she could play more than ten times, which made her very happy. She sizzled toward the distance, blowing up loose stones and splashing them everywhere.
From Anthony's angle, he saw the little angel firing at a pile of loose stones, but from Ge Lei's eyes, she saw countless skeletons climbing up from the wilderness. The little angel's Holy Light Flash happened to sizzle onto a golden skeleton, sizzling it until it smoked and collapsed.
Ge Lei hurried to help, her fingers circling, turning into a cyan ring, and then throwing it out. The "ring" would change constantly during the flight, turning into a wind blade, slashing toward the enemy in her eyes.
Of course, the "enemy" she saw didn't exist in Anthony's eyes, so Ang's power was still projected on him, so he wasn't affected by the illusion.
The big cat should have sensed that something was wrong, suddenly jumped to the ground, turned into its main body, opened its big mouth, and shouted "Ah ah ah—" toward the distance.
However, this was an illusion, a change in perception, not a change in space. Its interference had no effect, but it gave Ge Lei a fright. Such a small cat, how did it suddenly become such a big group?
Seeing that they had been affected by the domain illusion, Anthony said: "My lord, we must stop the scarecrow as soon as possible. The damage received in the Truth Domain is all real. If they get hurt, they will really get hurt."
Is it this powerful? Ang tilted his head and ran toward the scarecrow's direction.
In the loose stones of the canyon in the distance, a scarecrow opened its arms, stood on one leg on the ground, wearing a straw hat, just like any scarecrow seen everywhere in the field, except for the black gas emerging from the straw gaps, and a pair of red eye slits.
However, seeing Ang running straight toward it, the red eye slits first shrank a little, as if squinting, and then widened, obviously confirming that Ang wasn't affected by its domain illusion.
The scarecrow immediately arched its body, opened its mouth, and let out a sharp shriek: "Scarecrow Wuga—"
Its cry seemed very scary... A thought popped into Ang's mind, and then he felt very strange. Is it scary? Why don't I feel it?
Anthony behind shouted: "Fear spell, my lord, it's a fear spell, be careful."
While speaking, Anthony added several divine arts to the little angel and the others. First was Steel Will, then Light Praise, then Light Wall, plus Sigh Wall, protecting everyone tightly.
If there were people from the Church of Light present, they would probably be so scared their legs would go soft now. Adding so many divine arts in one breath, how deep must Anthony's divine power be? Is he a thigh pendant of the God of Light?
But he still wasn't at ease. This kind of battle in an illusion was the first time he had encountered it, and he had no experience.
But just thinking about the scarecrow's soul strength, which was just a little bit away from crossing into the Mourning Lord, and possessing its own domain, he knew that no matter how cautious he was, it wouldn't be too much.
The Mourning Lords Ha Wei and Fei Ti didn't have their own domains, only Luo Ke seemed to have one.
However, it was said that Luo Ke's domain was in terms of combat. He couldn't beat Luo Ke, so he hadn't experienced it, but he could ask Nai Ge Li Si. The God of Knowledge was one of the few who had experienced it and was still alive.
Seeing Ang ignore the illusion and also ignore its fear spell, the scarecrow finally panicked a bit, jumped up from the ground with a "thud," and shouted: "Scarecrow Wuga Scarecrow Wuga!"
Ang continued to ignore it, took out his scythe, and slashed down.
The scythe blade swept across the scarecrow's body, but Ang felt like he hadn't hit anything. Looking closely, the scarecrow was one body length away from the position where the scythe fell.
Did he miss? Impossible. Ang had been cutting rice for so many years and had never missed. He couldn't miss even if he closed his eyes.
Ang closed his eyes and swung his scythe to slash.
Clang! The scarecrow didn't know where it took out a small scythe and blocked Ang's scythe. Look, I said he couldn't miss even if he closed his eyes.
The small scythe looked a bit familiar, the same style as the small scythe Ang used before.
Clang! The weapons of both sides slashed together again, and a violent shockwave exploded at the intersection of the weapons, and the air all around was shaken and exploded.
Anthony turned his head to look and took a deep breath. It seemed that this scarecrow not only had a Truth Domain, but its combat power was also very fierce.
Clang clang clang clang, Ang and the scarecrow fought into a group, the sound of weapons clashing connected into a string, and the shock-exploding energy splashed everywhere, just like someone was tearing down a house.
It had been a long time since Ang had fought someone head-on like this. After being projected into this world, he couldn't transform into the Dragon God or Luo Ke, and his combat power had dropped significantly.
The scarecrow's strength was somewhat inferior to his, but it had a very strange ability that could make Ang's scythe miss. Every time he swung its scythe away and slashed down again, it was already one body length away.
Just at this moment, Nai Ge Li Si's cursing sounded in Ang's soul: "This is a real phantom, both are real. Whichever one you hit, it becomes fake. In the illusion, you can't kill it. Ku Ba Da, I was just a few steps slow, and you guys ran away without a shadow. Where is this? And who is this?"
Ang's four little ones sneaked away, and Nai Ge Li Si couldn't find them after chasing them out, so he had to project over. As soon as he came over, he saw such an explosive battle scene, which gave him a big fright. He was just a few steps slow, and they were already fighting.
"Scarecrow, awaken, soul, King, raised." Ang said.
Nai Ge Li Si gasped, because he heard two keywords: "King? Raised by His Majesty?"
No need to listen to anything else, just hearing this sentence was enough to know that this scarecrow was definitely not an ordinary thing.
"Scarecrow awakened soul? Can a scarecrow awaken a soul? How is it possible? It's a dead object." Nai Ge Li Si continued to be shocked.
A scarecrow is just straw tied into a human shape. If it can awaken a soul, then stones can, wood can, and pillows can too. Wouldn't the world be in chaos?
Just as he was puzzled, Ang suddenly took out a hat and put it on his head.
"Scarecrow hat? What do you want to do?" Nai Ge Li Si asked in shock.
Could it be that the scarecrow hat has some special function that can break the scarecrow's real phantom?
Ang didn't respond, but adjusted the hat, turning into an eagle in everyone's eyes...
"Why did you turn into an eagle? There are no birds here." Nai Ge Li Si asked in confusion.
However, he knew why immediately. Almost at the same moment Ang turned into an eagle, the scarecrow let out a sharp shriek: "Scarecrow Wuga! Scarecrow Wuga! Scarecrow Wuga Scarecrow Wuga!"
Nai Ge Li Si felt uncomfortable all over: "Fear spell, what a strong fear spell, ah ah ah—"
Nai Ge Li Si was feared, his intent ran away without a trace. Somewhere in the Life God Pool, the golden dragon was screaming and running around, rushing to the edge of a cliff, and was about to fall down.
Fortunately, a tree root suddenly bulged and tripped it, making it fall flat on its face, which woke it up.
"Huh, what happened? Why am I here? I just seemed to see Nai Ai Li rushing toward me, almost stepping me to death. What's going on?" Nai Ge Li Si muttered blankly, and it took a long time before he remembered something, and quickly projected over again.
A rustling sound rang out in the forest, leaves drifted down gently, giving a fright to an insect that was about to drill into the golden dragon's nostril, and it fled clutching its head.
With the Life God guarding the forest, Nai Ge Li Si was very relieved. If the body was broken, he would find the old tree to compensate.
Projecting onto Ang again, Nai Ge Li Si saw Ang's scythe sweep across the scarecrow's body, splitting it into two from shoulder to waist.
"Huh? Not a phantom? You hit it?" Nai Ge Li Si was shocked.
On the other side, the excited, agitated little angel, who was fighting non-stop, suddenly stopped in confusion and called out in confusion: "Awoo?"
The Truth Domain disappeared. The little angel found that the enemy had disappeared. Turning her head to look, she found that the scarecrow had already been split into two, and immediately understood what had happened. She let out a few dissatisfied "awoo awoo" sounds, looking exactly like a bear child whose knight novel had been confiscated by a parent.
Compared to her dissatisfaction, Anthony breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't like this kind of weird battle, because he didn't know how to win, or how he would lose.
Fortunately, Ang was there, and Ang's powerful soul suppressed it, otherwise, no matter how many people were present, they would only die faster.
The scarecrow, split into two and falling to the ground, launched a soul impact at Ang: "Scarecrow Wuga!"
Ang's head was shocked backward, and then he continued to walk toward it as if nothing had happened. Without an overwhelming soul gap, soul impact was very difficult to take effect, not to mention its soul wasn't as strong as Ang's, and its spiritual power was the same.
Relying on these two advantages, the scarecrow's strength couldn't be exerted at all.
Regardless of the scarecrow's continuous impact on him with "Scarecrow Wuga Scarecrow Wuga," Ang picked up its upper body and looked closely, discovering a withered heart wrapped in straw in its chest cavity.
"So it's not an ordinary scarecrow. This heart is its main body. No wonder it can give birth to a soul. But who is so cruel to stuff a heart into a scarecrow?" Nai Ge Li Si asked.
Anthony walked over to look and said hesitantly: "This seems to be a kind of evil punishment, replacing your body with straw until you die completely, but the soul will also be forever sealed in the straw, until forever."
Nai Ge Li Si was shocked: "You mean, the scarecrow's soul was once alive?"
Anthony shook his head: "This one isn't. His Majesty should have released the original soul sealed inside. This soul is newly born."
Ang took out the Holy Shroud, wrapped it up, shoved it into the dimensional space, and prepared to study it when he went back.
Just at this moment, the big cat emerged from the distance, shouting "awoo awoo" at everyone. After the Truth Domain disappeared, it ran out to scout the way, and now it was obviously discovering something.
Nai Ge Li Si listened to the big cat's cry and translated somewhat uncertainly: "What does it mean? It seems to be saying it found an embryo dragon? Found me? It dares to scold me?!" ===== CHAPTER 484 =====
