Part 5 The Red Priestess Chapter 105 – Different Paths, Different Styles
At the sight of such an image, Hwyn Lambeth immediately broke free from that calm state, clearly cognizant of the fact that he had fallen into a trap and had already encountered some degree of influence before.
Without hesitation, his back arched slightly and his body appeared to swell visibly.
His pupils then stood up, turning from a pale blue to a golden yellow, and his face, the backs of his hands, every inch of his exposed skin, grew scales as gray as stone.
With a piercing sound, the white shirt, black vest, formal jacket, and straight pants he wore all tore apart, revealing the dragon scales beneath.
In an instant, Hwyn Lambeth turned into an abnormally large monster, except for his head, which still retained its human form, the rest of his body had completely changed, just like a gray and white dragon whose body had not yet completely evolved.
This dragon has two gray and dusky skin-covered wings on its back, its limbs are thicker, and the gray scales on its surface are engraved with one complex and three-dimensional mysterious symbols, which extend into its flesh and blood and into the surrounding void, as if they were intertwined with something that does not belong to the real world, causing people to become mentally disturbed when they see it, and their thoughts twisted, and their spiritual bodies are stained with all kinds of thoughts that seem to be coming from the bottom of their hearts, so that they cannot wait to tear or destroy The self.
This is the incomplete mythological creature form of the “audience” path!
For demigods of other pathways, before reaching the angelic level, in order to fight in the form of mythological creatures, they must have extremely strong wills and very firm beliefs, or else they simply can’t manage the tendency to go crazy and out of control, and most likely they will directly lose their minds, and truly turn into monsters; however, this is not necessary for the “audience” pathway. “Pacification”, there is a treatment for the mind and spirit, in the face of insanity and loss of control is not helpless, so as long as the battle does not continue for too long, they can use the mythological biological form as long as they want to use the mythological biological form, want to return to normal as long as they want to return to normal.
Woo!
All the thoughts in the subconscious realm of Hwyn Lambeth’s mind boiled over as they tumbled and discerned, pushing out one part of the implanted and modified part of his consciousness after another and dissolving into nothingness.
Whoosh!
Raging winds surged around the gray dragon that Hwyn Lambeth had incarnated, seeming to come from reality and as if they originated in the unreal.
They carried certain wills and blew in all directions, and all the creatures that were caught in them inevitably appeared in various abnormal states, either frozen in place with trembling, or running blindly and irrationally towards the corners of the gardens, or incontinent, with their legs weakly paralyzed, or directly fainting and falling into a coma, or revealing a fervent expression and becoming the dragon’s flankers.
This was a qualitative change, originating from the mythological creature’s “dragon power”, which had changed from the original simple “shock” to the “mental deprivation” with various effects!
Taking the opportunity of the “Dragon’s Might” sweeping around him, Hwyn Lambeth’s will combined with his thoughts, incarnated into one illusory and shadowy figure after another, and from within the sea of collective subconsciousness, which was invisible to the vast majority of the extraordinary people, he approached Germaine Sparrow on the roof of the house and Audrey Hall on the edge of the garden at high speed respectively.
–As a “spectator”, he could tell that the attacker was Germaine Sparrow just by the image and temperament of his unreadable face!
By this time, Audrey, following the results of the previous discussion on the gray mist and the reminder of the two demigods “World” and “Hidden One”, was already constantly muttering and hypnotizing herself:
”I can’t see anything, I can’t hear anything. ……
”I can’t see anything, I can’t hear anything …….”
This was to prevent her from becoming mentally abnormal, or even outright out of control, from looking directly at Hwyn Lambeth’s mythological biomorphic form.
However, it also prevented her from “seeing” or sensing that one of Hwyn Lambeth’s ideas had approached her mental body from the sea of her collective subconscious.
Suddenly, the blonde girl’s corresponding island of consciousness in front of Hwyn Lambeth’s “eyes” disappeared, vanished.
Audrey, on the other hand, felt a warmth on her body surface, as if she had returned from the cold, dark cave to the sunlit ground.
She was busy lifting the hypnosis and opened her eyes, only to see the sun in mid-air piercing through the not-so-thin clouds and shedding a brilliant glow, while a flower belonging to the fall bloomed quietly and beautifully and calmly in the golden and clear sensation.
Audrey looked round in slight bewilderment, and did not notice Hwyn Lambeth, nor did she see Germaine Sparrow or the great red moon.
It gave her the feeling that everything she had just experienced was just a dream.
”What a powerful ability …… A battle between two demigods might not even touch a flower down.” Audrey murmured two sentences to herself wordlessly and calmly withdrew from the garden and retreated above the corridor that connected the place to the house.
This was her fear that her presence would cause Gelman Sparrow to be apprehensive and affect the other’s battle.
In the hidden world, one of the him that Hwyn Lambeth had split off from, at the same time, arrived at that island of Gelman Sparrow’s consciousness under the red moon.
He was about to ascend up there and open the door of that mind body to manipulate the other’s subconscious mind and make him do all sorts of actions against his own thoughts, but he found that this illusory island standing in the sea of the collective subconscious mind was dead silent, with no thoughts floating around, no flashes of thoughts, and no way to influence it at all.
Puppets! Secret Puppets! Hwyn Lambeth made an instantaneous judgment, combining it with the information he had gained in the past to get a better grasp of Germaine Sparrow’s condition.
Instead of being surprised and frustrated, he felt more joy and confidence, because for the demigods in the “audience” path, they could easily distinguish between the secret puppet and the main body, making Gelman Sparrow’s strongest ability greatly diminished.
Moreover, do you think you can disable my mind invasion and consciousness manipulation with a secret puppet? With a sweep of his golden pupils, the shadowy and illusory Hwyn Lambeth found a transparent channel for transmitting thoughts on the island of consciousness corresponding to the secret puppet, which is the symbolic form of the “spiritual thread” in the world of the mind and in the realm of consciousness!
Immediately after that, with a flash of his body, this Hwyn Lambeth already followed that transparent channel and found another island of consciousness hidden in the distance, which was the root of the manipulation of the secret puppet through thoughts, that is to say, belonging to the main body!
”Found you!”
Hwyn Lambeth grunted coldly, causing the sea of collective subconsciousness around him to raise a terrifying storm of minds, causing them to lap up Germaine Sparrow’s islands of consciousness again and again.
This caused the nearby “celestial phenomena” to change rapidly, and the spirit’s sensing of the surroundings was strongly disturbed, and Hwyn Lambeth took this opportunity to close in on Germaine Sparrow’s island of consciousness, manifesting grayish-white steps and attempting to silently invade the other party’s subconscious realm.
This was his usual fighting style, one bright and one dark, one direct impact aggression, one covert infiltration, both used in unison, it was easy to break down the target’s mind barrier, initially taking control of the other party’s mind body.
At the same time, he flew up in the form of a dragon, hovering in mid-air, using “dragon power” and “spitting breath” to affect Germaine Sparrow, matching the battle in the mind field.
Just at this time, from the depths of the collective subconscious sea along the bottom of the mind island quietly invaded Gelman Sparrow’s mind body of the illusory Hwyn Lambeth suddenly blurred in front of his eyes, saw an infinite gray and white mist, and the surrounding collective subconscious sea and the mind island disappeared all the time.
Hwyn Lambeth’s heart tightened, and he busily analyzed his mind, suspecting that he was under the influence of an illusion.
However, no matter how he handled it, the grayish mist remained unchanged, and of course, no accidents or dangers erupted, it seemed to be simply a background.
This was rather puzzling.
Just as Hwyn Lambeth was about to set off a mind storm here as well, the grayish mist finally dissipated, revealing the island of consciousness that belonged to Germaine Sparrow before.
Without hesitating, Hwyn Lambeth hurriedly invaded the corresponding subconscious field and tried to modify the target’s thoughts.
However, those thoughts were actually all tinted with bright and pure light, full of sacred and solemn atmosphere, untouchable and unaffected.
This …… Hwyn Lambeth instinctively looked up, following the stone staircase that materialized, to the part of the island of consciousness floating above the sea of collective subconsciousness.
In addition to the “island” itself, there was also a figure with twelve pairs of flaming wings on its back, emitting a gleaming golden light.
It seemed to be the projection of an angel’s power!
Since he was planning to deal with a demigod of the “audience” path today, Klein undoubtedly used the “Angel’s Embrace” on himself in advance, the kind that mobilizes the mysterious spatial power of the gray mist with the help of the “Red Priestess” tablet. With the help of the “Red Priest” tablet, he was able to mobilize the mysterious spatial power above the gray mist, which was also the reason why he was not affected by the incomplete mythological creature form for the time being.
He didn’t show this directly just now because he was using Hwyn Lambeth as an experiment.
When Hwyn Lambeth tried to invade the island of consciousness that corresponded to his own body, his secret puppet, Chunas Korg, used its ability to “distort” the target of the enemy: from Krynn’s mental body to a gray mist projection of reality that enveloped Krynn’s body.
In this way, if Hwyn Lambeth could find an island of consciousness in that gray fog, it would mean that there were unknown beings sleeping in the mysterious space above the gray fog, and Kraven had to take precautions as soon as possible, while on the other hand, he could feel a little more at ease.
This was something he had wanted to test for a long time, only that he hadn’t dared to try it due to the possibility of great danger, today, he finally had the chance to accomplish it, anyway, even if there was any backlash, the one who would die would be Hwyn Lambeth, not him, and perhaps he could even use it to easily dispose of a demigod.
Seeing that the other party had the blessing of angels, and that he could not break through or infiltrate the other party’s mind body in a short period of time, exerting influence in terms of consciousness, Hwyn Lambeth backed up without hesitation, withdrawing from this area, and returned to his own mind through the sea of collective subconsciousness.
Then, the huge dragon just disappeared, vanishing into thin air, making it impossible for Klein to locate it using the “Psychic Thread”.
”Psychic Stealth”!
Hwyn Lambeth planned to use his mental blind spot to hide in the dark, and while continuing to use “Mind Deprivation”, “Mind Storm”, and other ranged extraordinary abilities to gradually weaken Gelman Sparrow’s angelic-enhanced psychic barrier, he relied on his own seal to try to attack. Attempted Attack.
–As a demigod of the “audience” path, although the dragon’s physical combat was very strong, it still lacked the necessary extraordinary abilities with strong offensive power, and it had to make up for that by using certain seals.
It was at this time that an illusory tome appeared in front of Gelman Sparrow, who did not know if it was a secret puppet or his own body, and with it an ethereal voice resounded around him:
”I come, I see, I record.”
Klein was going to use the “Lightning Storm” recorded by the “Records Officer” in “Creeping Hunger”!
For something like “Psychological Stealth”, a full-range saturation attack would do the trick!
I have to say, the “Storm” pathway is a pretty good choice for dealing with similar styles of Extraordinary Beings.
