Chapter 712: Hunting Down Spirits
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Oh geez...
That scene gave both Benjamin and Dick a shock.
That was exactly a human figure, which seemed like it was still alive and moving. As Benjamin moved closer to it cautiously, he found that that person had shut his eyes tight, as if he had fallen into some sort of a, seemingly unconscious.
Moreover, based on his outfit, was he a mercenary?
Benjamin felt that it was unimaginably odd.
They entered the bottom of the abyss inadvertently, saw spirits and the space rift, how could they possibly bump into a mercenary flying out from the rifts as well? Was it just a coincidence? Or it was a mon thing that happened all the time in this ghostly place?
The System immediately mentioned the results of his probe.
"Judging from the badge that he’s wearing, he’s certainly a mercenary. He came from Ferelden, his weapons were made by a smith in Gealorre, his magic potions came from Mage Vinci’s chain store - these are all good pieces of evidence about his identity."
After hearing that, Benjamin felt even more outrageous.
Why would an ordinary mercenary from Ferelden suddenly appear from within the space rifts at the abyss?
However, while Benjamin was still crazed about it, the spirits around him started moving.
They fluttered around with their translucent bodies, and "swam" toward the mercenary who was in a a. In just a blink of an eye, more than ten spirits surrounded the mercenary and wrapped him pletely, as if forming a gigantic capsule, with a faint white light shining out from within.
Through the translucent outer shell of that gigantic capsule, Benjamin could see that the face of that mercenary suddenly showed an odd happiness, it looked so happy that it was kind of creepy.
After that, the mercenary’s face started aging, which could be seen through the naked eye. His dark brown hair slowly turned white, and wrinkles started forming on his face. Under the thick leather he was wearing, his built body started shriveling bit by bit as well, soon he became no different from an old man in his seventies or eighties.
Those spirits... seemed to be engulfing his youth.
Benjamin was flabbergasted by what he saw.
"Tsk tsk tsk, so this is how spirits consume their food, it looks really yummy." The System watched with relish instead and exclaimed.
"..."
As he listened to the System, Benjamin snapped out of his state and shook his head helplessly.
Looking at that mercenary was like falling into hallucination. Therefrom, he could not help but associate it with weird singing and a dreamland. Although they were in an absolutely soundproof ice ball and could not hear any movements outside, he guessed that the "singing" must be extremely loud at that time.
It was the spirits who created all the hallucination.
Similar to the sound of a beast growling, it was probably the sound that spirits would make. They must have used that sound to create hallucinations, trapped other creatures that were alive, then engulfed the vitality of their preys.
As he thought about that, Benjamin could not help but shudder.
He was not sure if his magic would work against those spirits, but if he stayed too long on the "Skyfall Mountains
