Chapter 823 Oh, isn't this Lao Fu?
"Don't think about these things now, just keep testing." Anduin shook his head, shaking off those unrealistic thoughts in his mind.
In his opinion, although the ethereal state looks very powerful, judging from the weak magic attack characteristics of this state in the previous experiment, the ethereal state is by no means omnipotent.
"Yes, my lord!" Hogg responded softly, "Then let's do the magic defense test next. For safety's sake, the magic of the first attack is given priority to the ordinary lightning spell, which consumes 1 moment of energy and has a standard strength of 20 points. power value."
After finishing speaking, Hogg began to operate on the experimental bench, and soon the humanoid target in front of Anduin had a hole in its head, exposing the tip of a wand.
Immediately afterwards, a very thin electric current shot out from the tip of the wand, hitting the unsuspecting Anduin directly.
Although the electric current was very weak and its power was extremely low, Anduin was still shaken by the electric current after being hit.
"How about it, my lord? Can the Void Armor itself provide protection?" Seeing Anduin's appearance, Hogg didn't dare to upgrade his attack.
Anduin shook his head lightly, "The response to the attack is very clear and painful, and the battle armor after etherification is useless, and it doesn't help defense at all."
"Then do we need to test further? It feels like you will become very fragile after becoming ethereal." Hogg asked a little nervously.
"No need." Anduin shook his head again, "This kind of test has been done on other experimental subjects before, and I just want to experience it for myself."
"After entering the ethereal form, it will indeed enter a transparent state that is completely defenseless against magic. No matter how strong the protective armor is on the body before, it is no different from taking off the whole body when it is attacked."
"It seems that the flaws of the ethereal form are more deadly than the advantages." Hogg stroked his chin, "My lord, apart from the strengthening of magic and the vulnerability to magic attacks, what are the special features of entering the ethereal form?" Do you feel it?"
"This experience is very special..." Anduin raised his hands and looked at his translucent body, "After entering the ethereal form, I can clearly feel that the distance between myself and magic power is getting closer, and I can even Said it was zero-distance contact."
"None-distance contact with magic power?" Hogg tilted his head in confusion, "What does this mean? Don't we usually have close contact with magic power?"
"That's different..." Anduin slowly shook his head, "Although the magic power is stored in the wizard's body, the wizard's physical body still creates a certain gap between the magic power and the spirit, which is why the magic power sensitivity is so important to the wizard. .”
"The stronger the magic power sensitivity, the better the wizard can control the magic power in the body, and entering the ethereal state is equivalent to letting the wizard get rid of the barrier of the physical body, allowing people to communicate directly with the magic power."
"I see." Hogg nodded knowingly, "So the ethereal form is actually equivalent to raising the wizard's magic power sensitivity to the extreme. No wonder the magic power conversion rate is so high."
"It can also be understood in this way." Anduin nodded, "And it's not just about casting spells, because the gap with magic power has disappeared, the recovery of magic power has also been raised to a high level, and the recovery rate even exceeds that of me entering the overload state. time level."
"Isn't that similar to infinite magic power?" Hogg knew exactly how strong Anduin's overloaded form was. If it wasn't for the heavy load on his body, he could maintain that state for a long time with the magic power he absorbed on the spot.
"It's a pity that the weakness of the ethereal form is too obvious. If you enter this state during the battle, you will be defenseless against magic attacks. If you accidentally hit a few spells, you may have to burp on the spot."
After weighing it for a long time, Hogg still felt that the magic of the ethereal form should be used cautiously in battle.
"Although its advantages and disadvantages are obvious, the disadvantages may be circumvented by other means, and even utilized, for example like this..."
Anduin smiled coldly, then suddenly closed his eyes, and mobilized his magic power suddenly, causing crystal clear magic aura to shine all over his body in the ethereal state.
After a while, Anduin suddenly opened his eyes, and then pointed at the humanoid target in front of him.
Soon a ghost-like magic bullet shot out from between the fingers, and after sinking into the human-shaped target, it quickly transformed into an imaginary form.
The next moment, Anduin casually threw a bolt of lightning at the human-shaped target, and then Hogg saw that the translucent human-shaped target in the middle of the experimental site was instantly smashed to pieces.
"hiss……"
Seeing this, Hogg sucked in a breath of cold air, "So...so that's the case, transforming the enemy into the ethereal form can instantly turn the opponent into a lamb waiting to be slaughtered!"
"That's right, the application of ethereal form is more extensive than imagined." Anduin nodded with a smile.
It was only after he became familiar with the ethereal form for a short time that he discovered that he could cast spells on other people or other objects. Originally, he thought that he could only do it after he became familiar with the ethereal runes.
"Hogg, let's test the actively transformed data next." Anduin shouted.
"Yes." Hogg replied loudly, and then raised a humanoid target again.
After repeated tests, Anduin finally confirmed that the active transformation of the ethereal form, depending on the amount of magic used, can keep the target for several seconds to several minutes.
Of course, this is only the case when using it on dead objects. If the target is a creature, the duration will be shortened several times. If the opponent is a wizard and uses magic power to struggle, it will be even shorter.
After being transformed into the ethereal form, the impact on the target is no different from Anduin's current state.
In this way, the application scenarios of the ethereal form are more extensive. Not only can it be used on the enemy to eliminate the opponent's defense means and enhance the damage, but it can also be cast on the friendly army, allowing teammates to obtain the ability of physical immunity.
"Well, the ethereal form is more valuable than imagined." Anduin nodded in satisfaction, "Our next topic is to activate the ethereal form without using the Deathly Hallows. If this can be achieved If so, perhaps in the future it will be able to flexibly and actively cast ethereal energy under normal conditions."
"Can't you just get rid of the Deathly Hallows and cast a spell through the Void Spirit Rune Array?" Hogg asked puzzled.
"No." Anduin shook his head regretfully, "The Void Spirit Rune Formation is very special, and it is difficult to cast it out of thin air without the Deathly Hallows as a carrier."
"It seems that this kind of ethereal form is also difficult to promote." Hogg grinned, "Then let's deconstruct the 'Elder Wand' first, we can gradually replace the Deathly Hallows, after all, the Resurrection Stone is in our hands , in fact, there is no need to worry so much.”
"I think so too." Anduin approved of Hogg's proposal very much, "The core and most special of the three holy artifacts is actually the Resurrection Stone, compared to the Elder Wand and the Invisibility Cloak, both have the possibility of substitution. "
"But before that, we have to take this opportunity to do something." Anduin said and exited the ethereal form, and then took out the magic box containing Tom Riddle's diary from his body.
"Voldemort?" Hogg stared at the locket, his expression gradually became sinister, "Are you sure?"
"Before I personally experienced the ethereal form, I wasn't so sure, but now..." Anduin smiled coldly, and then slowly opened the small box.
Inside the magic box, Voldemort's old diary was lying quietly at the bottom of the box.
Ever since Anduin locked him in this box isolated from all contact with the outside world, he has fallen into a deep sleep, trying to recharge his energy in this way, and then looking for opportunities to make a comeback.
After all, after the last impulsive suicide, the damage to Voldemort was really not small, and he has not been able to fully recover until now.
But Voldemort didn't really care about this, because he never thought that Anduin could trap himself forever. He boasted that he had a lifespan comparable to eternal life, and even if he consumed energy, he would kill that bastard.
Besides tormenting him with that peculiar type of lightning, the other party has no other way to take him. At worst, it will be destroyed along with the Horcrux. After the transfer of his soul is completed, he will be a good man again.
So when Anduin opened the magic box, Voldemort was still in a state of half-asleep and half-awake, not even aware of the change in the surrounding environment.
"Voldemort? Tom?" Anduin called softly to the diary twice, but did not receive any response.
"Oh, it looks like you slept soundly."
Anduin sneered, then picked up the diary with his right hand that still hadn't taken off the ethereal armor, and then transformed into the ethereal form again.
Since he was holding the diary in his hand this time, the diary was also brought into the ethereal form along with him, and because another living creature was brought in, the magic power to maintain the ethereal form rose sharply.
Voldemort, who was in a doze, apparently also noticed the abnormality. He only felt a sudden chill in his soul, and then he woke up from the doze.
"You, you are? Anduin?"
Voldemort, who was awakened, hadn't been able to react to what happened. He only saw the ghostly humanoid creature in front of him covered in steel. Under uncertain circumstances, he could only ask tentatively.
Anduin in front of him ignored Voldemort at all. After entering the ethereal state, he seized the time to analyze the Horcrux in front of him with magic perception.
In this state of completely abandoning matter, the soul and spirit are as conspicuous as the moon in the middle of the night, and only in this state can Anduin break through the protection of the Horcrux and directly contact Voldemort's soul.
"I found you, Legilimency! Activate!"
After a brief groping, Anduin quickly locked on to Voldemort's soul, and then he cast Legilimency without the slightest hesitation.
He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity for the souls of both parties to be honest with each other, and dig into Voldemort's memory.
The soul of Voldemort, who was hit by Legilimency, trembled suddenly. As a master of Legilimency, he knew exactly what happened.
But he was very puzzled by this. He was clearly under the protection of the Horcrux, so how did the other party activate Legilimency on him?
But now he doesn't have so much time to think about it. If he doesn't stop Anduin quickly, not only will his memory be lost, but his thinking may even be tampered with by the other party.
Soon, he and Anduin started a bloody offensive and defensive battle in his own soul.
Anduin wanted to completely seize this thinking position, while Voldemort was trying to hold his own spiritual defense line. Once the other party broke through, the consequences would be disastrous.
Fortunately, this is Voldemort's home court, and at the same time, he is a master of Legilimency, so he played back and forth in the confrontation with Anduin.
But because Voldemort is not perfect at this time, and even his soul is incomplete, so in terms of absolute strength, he is not Anduin's opponent.
Therefore, after a stalemate between the two sides for a period of time, Voldemort felt deeply powerless. The gap in mental power between the two was really not small. His half-crippled soul really couldn't withstand the continuous oppression of a young wizard.
Seeing that he was about to be unable to hold on any longer, Voldemort could only grit his teeth secretly in hatred, and then erupted a soul roar of deep resentment.
"Anduin! Just wait for me, I will never let you go!"
After yelling and cursing to vent his anger, Voldemort took the initiative to tear his own soul and committed suicide in front of Anduin again.
Although consecutive suicides within a year would cause great and indelible damage to his soul, at least it would ensure that his spiritual world would not be lost.
After Anduin saw this scene, he didn't show any expression of regret, but instead smiled teasingly.
Immediately afterwards, he exited the ethereal form again, and at the same time took out a ring that he had cherished for a long time, the ring of the Gaunt family.
At this time, a faint magical halo suddenly lit up on the originally simple ring. During this period, the ring was still beating slowly, as if it suddenly had life.
Not long after, Voldemort's consciousness, who committed suicide again, slowly awakened on the ring.
But at this time, he was even worse than when he committed suicide for the first time. Not only was his memory chaotic, but his soul was so weak that it was extremely difficult to even function.
Before Voldemort, who had just woken up, could react, a big metal face suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Huh? Who is this?" Voldemort, whose memory was still in a chaotic state, didn't even recognize Anduin's identity, but subconsciously, the figure in front of him gave him an inexplicable sense of fear.
fear?Is there something that I, the mighty Dark Lord, fear?
Voldemort didn't know why he had such absurd thoughts in his mind, but before he could react, the figure in front of him spoke first.
"Hey, isn't this Lao Fu? I didn't expect us to meet again..."
Looking at the ring that awakened Voldemort's consciousness, Anduin had a weird smile on his face.
Then, without waiting for Voldemort to respond, he activated the ethereal armor again and entered the ethereal form.
This time, he wants to completely and completely occupy the other party's thinking space!
