Chapter 33 Winning Against the Crowd
Less than ten minutes later, the pumpkin spirit, along with one person and three ghosts, arrived at the edge of the woods.
Meanwhile, a fierce battle was unfolding in the woods, with the allied forces of the Pumpkin Spirit and the Wood Spirit on one side, and the Night Patrol Spirits led by a Wandering Night Spirit on the other.
Although the Pumpkin Spirit and the Wood Spirit had clashed many times before, they had no choice but to join forces when faced with a powerful enemy.
Moreover, since they often fought together in groups, they knew each other quite well, and their temporary teamwork was surprisingly good.
In particular, in addition to being Ghost-type, they are also Grass-type, which makes their combat style more diverse. Besides using Ghost-type moves to attack each other, they can also use moves like "Leech Seed" to constantly wear down their opponents and recover their own health.
This means that Night Patrol Spirits are often at a disadvantage when facing Pumpkin Spirits and Wood Spirits one-on-one.
Moreover, the number of Night Patrol Spirits is not very large, only about thirty or forty, which is less than the combined forces of the two races.
Even so, the situation on the scene was still one-sided, because at the very front of the night patrol team was a wandering night spirit that was unstoppable.
Every time it raises its hand, a "Shadow Fist" will roar out, instantly defeating one or even two little wood spirits or pumpkin spirits.
Under its powerful command, dozens of night patrol spirits fought with increasing ferocity, defeating the little wood spirit and the pumpkin spirit in succession.
During this process, the Wandering Night Spirit will continue to capture and absorb the ghost energy of the little wood spirits and pumpkin spirits it defeats, making it stronger with each battle.
Of course, this crude method of absorbing ghost energy is far less effective than the pure energy extracted by Lin Ye using the Soul Refining Technique.
The ambitious members of both races risked their lives to attack, attempting to gradually inflict damage on the Wandering Night Elves. However, due to the vast difference in their levels, most of their attacks were easily thwarted by the latter's "Shadow Fist" before they could even cause any harm, and they were subsequently defeated as a result.
Some pumpkin spirits and little wood spirits even tried to exchange "shared fate" for the wandering night spirit.
However, due to the frantic obstruction from the surrounding Night Patrol Spirits and the vast difference in strength, the Wandering Night Spirits easily resolved the situation beforehand.
In the real world, some moves that are very effective in games also depend on the level difference.
For example, if you use a weakening move against an opponent whose energy level is much higher than your own, the opponent will often easily neutralize it because of the large energy difference.
"Both of them are on the verge of collapse. We must intervene immediately, or we'll have to face the Wandering Night Spirits and those Night Patrol Spirits ourselves."
Upon seeing the battle situation, Lin Ye made a decisive decision, and the three ghosts transformed into shadows and shot towards the center of the battlefield in the forest.
The Snow Fairy was the first to appear, rising gracefully and raising her hands lightly, instantly unleashing a blizzard that swept across the battlefield!
Caught off guard, the nearby night patrol spirits were slowed down by the cold, and their previously coordinated actions suddenly fell into chaos.
Zorua appeared not far from the wandering Night Spirit, slamming its claw into the ground and unleashing a black energy shrouded in resentment, its target the latter.
The Wandering Night Spirit paid no attention to the little devil who had suddenly barged in and was causing trouble. The energy of "Shadow Fist" burst forth, ready to destroy the resentment in the next moment.
But at that moment, it suddenly sensed a sharp aura, and then instinctively raised its "Shadow Fist" upwards, just in time to block the single sword sheath that was wrapped in black sword light and fell down.
"Sword Sheath Brat, Old Coffin's subordinate! What are you doing here? Daring to attack me, you're practically asking for death!"
The Wandering Night Spirit suddenly exerted its strength, and the dark light on its fist intensified, with the black lightning that burst forth distorting and blurring the air.
"Ta-da!"
The sword sheath was knocked away by the blow and stuck in a rock, but Zoroah's "an eye for an eye" successfully hit the Wandering Night Spirit.
The latter was already injured, and now, restrained by the "retribution of vengeance," even with the obvious difference in their levels, he couldn't help but let out a painful roar, and his breath weakened.
"Damn fox!"
The Wandering Night Spirit conjured a Shadow Ball to bombard Zorroia, but the latter neither dodged nor avoided it, and instead continued to unleash "An eye for an eye" on its own.
"Peng~~"
"An eye for an eye" hit again, causing damage, but "Shadow Ball" mysteriously passed right through Zoroah without causing any damage.
"How could this be~"
Dusknoir was startled to find that its usual STAB move, which was ineffective against other Ghost Pokémon, was not working. It then immediately changed its move, and a similarly dark but significantly deeper light emanated from its chest.
This malevolent energy made Zoroah instinctively tremble, but before the Wandering Night Spirit could make a move, he suddenly felt a chill on the top of his head. It turned out that the Snow Fairy had floated above his head and was emitting an "Ice Ray" at him!
At this moment, the Wandering Night Spirit's old and new injuries flared up at the same time, and he dared not get hurt again. So he unhesitatingly gathered "Evil Wave" and blasted it towards the Snow Fairy.
The "Frozen Ray" only held for a moment before being pushed back when it hit the black beam of light. The Snow Fairy hurriedly dodged, but was still grazed by the "Evil Pulse" and fell down with a wail.
Just as the Wandering Night Spirit was about to deliver the finishing blow, that familiar, chilling resentment struck again. He had no choice but to unleash the gathered "Shadow Fist" at his feet to neutralize the incoming "retribution."
But at this moment, the scabbard had already recovered, and the blade, carrying the evil attribute energy of "Ambush the Vital Points," slashed fiercely at the Wandering Night Spirit.
"Ah~"
The Wandering Night Spirit was already severely injured, and now it had been hit by a series of highly effective attacks. Even with its level advantage, it was now on the verge of death.
It dared not linger any longer, fearing that this ancient ghost would be caught off guard and suffer a terrible fate. So it released a black halo around itself, forcing the three ghosts to retreat, and then turned into a shadow to escape.
But the next moment, the wandering night spirit's twisted figure suddenly stopped, and the whole ghost froze in place as if it had been frozen in place, not moving at all.
The instigator of all this was naturally Lin Ye, who used the necromancy binding spell when the Wandering Night Spirit was about to escape.
Normally, with his current level of mage apprentice power, it would be difficult for him to control the Wandering Night Spirit for long.
However, the latter was already teetering on the brink of collapse, so the control would last longer, and besides, it wouldn't take the Snow Fairy and her allies so long to launch a counterattack.
When the three moves "Shadow Ball", "Ambush to the Weak Point" and "Revenge for Anger" hit simultaneously, the Wandering Night Spirit is instantly "gone to his death"!
Upon seeing this, the surrounding night patrol spirits scattered and fled, while the allied forces of the Wood Spirit and Pumpkin Spirit clans began to pursue them.
At this moment, Lin Ye emerged from behind the woods, came to the unconscious Wandering Night Spirit, and pressed him down to perform the Soul Refining Technique.
Lin Ye's necromancy apprentice level corresponds to the peak of "excellent". This is the first time he has used this technique against someone stronger than himself, so he is working very hard, and large beads of sweat are sliding down his head.
Three ghosts stood guard beside him, waiting quietly!
About five minutes later, Lin Ye successfully extracted a ball of pitch-black light flowing with incomparably pure ghost energy.
In an instant, all the little wood spirits and pumpkin spirits around were attracted by this energy, and they had no time to chase after the night patrol spirits. They all stared straight at it.
If it weren't for the three ghosts guarding it after their impressive display of power, they probably would have already been tempted to fight over it.
