People are prone to auditory hallucinations in an extremely quiet environment, just as people occasionally flash abnormal color spots in front of them in the complete darkness. There are both physical and psychological problems.
Especially when you are in a space full of books with evil will, it is natural to have auditory and visual illusions. Experienced casters will know that these illusions are unstoppable, so they adopt a strategy of partial disregard.
The experienced devil will use the mage''s disregard, cover up his whereabouts with a small amount of hallucinations, and quietly approach the target. This game has existed for a long time. It''s hard to say who is better.
But cheese doesn''t think he has fallen into a traditional game of witches and demons. The reason is very simple. The lantern in his hand. What the dawn breath brings is not so simple help as lighting. After the dwarves use incredible means to keep a ray of morning light inside the wick of the lantern forever, it has become one of the most difficult magic props for demons in the world.
If the lantern was not held by the grey robe, I''m afraid the evil conspiracy it triggered would not happen too long ago. All kinds of demons would not want something to release sunshine at night. Although they are not all blood families, they are not much different.
The sunlight that can pierce the puzzle is enough to break the psychological pressure. From the perspective of magic, the trick of creating hallucinations cannot work in this case, because hallucinations are not entities. In the final analysis, hallucinations are generated in the affected object''s own senses. As long as the other party does not accept the hint, hallucinations cannot appear.
In addition to the training and experience he has received, he knows clearly how to control his body and how his body will react in various environments. He can distinguish whether the sound comes from physiological auditory hallucinations through reason. This skill, coupled with the lantern in his hand, made him completely sure that the sound was real.
Put your fingers to your lips, lick them gently, and then face forward. Moist skin can better feel the flow of air, so as to eliminate whether the sound may be caused by the wind blowing some loose objects.
Such a move does not involve any complex knowledge, and anyone with experience can make a similar response quickly. However, arrogant mages often don''t do this. They prefer to use magic vision to determine the surrounding environment, and are more willing to use magic to deal with problems and obtain the information they want.
They master magic, rely on magic, and are also mastered by magic. Now the cheese won''t be like this, and magic is just a means for him.
Since it is a means, there is no distinction between high and low, only whether it is appropriate and applicable. In the current situation, using mana rashly is obviously easier to cause problems than licking your fingers.
As if to respond to him, there was a trace of coolness on the place wetted by saliva on his fingers. So, is it the wind? Indeed, it is difficult for masonry houses to be completely sealed, and the brick joints that are not tightly combined will become natural ventilation channels.
But judging from the condition of the previous corridor, cheese doesn''t think the room built to bury demon classics can''t even be sealed well. Not to mention optimizing the cutting process of stone, pouring metal slurry or other barriers between brick joints can also effectively increase its tightness.
He believed that those mages must have taken this into account. After all, the flowing gas will bring life, life will be corrupted, and corruption may make these buried objects appear again.
It sounds alarmist, but it has happened many times. If you zoom in to the whole world, similar evil tombs will break out every three or five times.
In fact, the mold on the wall seen along the way of cheese may be an important force for these demon classics to reappear several or even hundreds of years later. As long as these brainless spores can open a small gap for them, what comes in along the gap can become the next infected object, rats, lizards and spiders, They will soon attract intelligent creatures eager for evil power. If demon classics are life, that''s their instinct.
Unfortunately, cheese was not lured by their corrupt power. He was a powerful caster and was not interested in being contaminated with dark magic. On the contrary, he doesn''t mind eliminating those molds when he determines the way back, so that the time when these classics may reappear will be postponed for hundreds of years.
Thinking of this, cheese decided to systematically check the extent of the devil''s corruption here. He took the lantern off his waist and held it up in front of him, let its light illuminate all sides and cast a long shadow on the ground.
"Hiss!" The sound came again, and this time it was accompanied by an impending cold.
Cheese''s body reacted faster than his reason. Almost in an instant, he released his hand holding the lantern, quickly retracted it back, and pulled out the short knife in his waist with his left hand.
The next moment, something cold and slippery rubbed the fingertip of his right hand and fell to the ground and rolled into a cone. A snake, a black snake with blind eyes covered with gray cornea.
"Hiss!" More sounds came from all over the room. Under the light of the dawn falling to the ground, more and more slender shadows appeared in all parts of the room, on bookshelves, on walls and on the ground.
Those snakes did not spit out snake letters to smell the smell in the air like their counterparts in the outside world. They were quiet like statues when they stopped moving. Only when they were moving, the scales on both sides of their abdomen would rub and make a fine sound.
Cheese has never seen such snakes. Their appearance is like that of Agkistrodon halys, but the scales on their body surface still do not reflect light in the sun make them like twisted black vines.
Their heads are facing the gray robes, or half out of their bodies, or their necks are raised, or they crawl on the ground and raise slightly. This feeling of being stared at by several snakes in a narrow space is very bad, especially when you can''t be sure of their eyes.
Grey robes doubt whether these snakes have real vision, because their visual organs seem to have degraded in an absolutely dark environment. But snakes do not rely entirely on their eyesight.
The grey robes and the black snakes confronted each other. As the cheese stopped moving and the dawn breath broke out of his hands, the suddenly appeared black snakes also stopped moving and stopped in place as if frozen.
What''s the meaning of this? What do they want? Can we only capture the goal of the action, or what other reason? In this case, what can I do?
One problem after another appeared in the cheese''s mind. He tried to move his pace slightly, and was ready to be attacked and bitten by the snakes.
It''s not a desperate situation for the grey robe. As long as the snake doesn''t get into the inside of the robe, he has the ability to protect his body from too serious damage. And his circulatory system, which has long been trained in toxin resistance for many times, will not be easily disintegrated by snake venom.
However, the imaginary attack did not happen, and the snakes were still motionless, which confused the grey robe. But soon he knew why the black snakes did so.
They are waiting.
