These Familiars Are Strange-Chapter 65: Desperation?
After the Fishman Priest used his spell to break the hypnosis of the Echo Bat, it became a free for all fight.
The ones that had broken free were attacking the ones that were hypnotized.
Since they were being attacked, it wasn’t as if they could just ignore these attacks. The only thing that they could do was fight back against the Fishmen guards that were attacking them.
Only it didn’t seem like the Fishman Priest was going to remain idle while the Fishmen guards fought with each other.
The Fishman Priest raised his staff again and there was another light that appeared around it before this light was sent to the Fishmen guards that were freed of the Echo Bat’s control.
As soon as this light wrapped around the Fishmen guards, they started to overwhelm their hypnotized comrades.
It seemed that this Fishman Priest had the ability to buff its comrades, but this was expected from someone that had a priest job.
It seemed that it not only made the Fishmen guards stronger, but also much faster than before. It made it so that the Fishmen guards that weren’t buffed found it hard to keep up with the Fishmen guards that were.
I slightly knitted my brows when I saw this, but I also had a card to play here.
"Charge them." I said to the Echo Bat before it sent the other monsters that we had under our control forward.
The Fishman Priest and Fishmen guards were caught off guard by this swarm of monsters that suddenly appeared, but they did what they could to fight back against them.
Each of the Fishmen guards were surrounded by two or three different monsters, but it didn’t seem like they had a problem fighting against them. It seemed like they were able to fend off the attacks and even attack back even when surrounded like this.
But at the very least, the Fishmen guards were occupied enough that the Fishman Priest was exposed.
The Fishmen that I sent into the temple previously surrounded the Fishman Priest, but the FIshman Priest didn’t seem to panic at all.
Instead, it just raised its staff and there was a barrier that appeared around itself.
The Fishman Priest didn’t seem interested in fighting the Fishmen around it at all, it seemed like it was only interested in providing support to the Fishmen guards.
After creating this barrier, the Fishman Priest raised his staff again and there was another white light that appeared around it.
This time, the white light that appeared around the Fishmen guards healed the wounds that they suffered from the fight. They were only small wounds, but it did recover a bit of their stamina as well.
It seemed that when it came to a long term fight, it would be us that would be at a disadvantage.
That was just how it was having a healer compared to not having a healer.
The side with the healer would be able to fight continuously without a problem while the side without a healer would eventually get worn down.
So the only thing that I could do was…
I took out a crown that I placed on my head and started focusing on it while saying, "Clear the path for me."
The Echo Bat gave a nod before giving the order for the monsters to clear the way.
The Fishman Priest was surprised to see the monsters attacking the Fishmen guards fiercely like this, but that was all that it felt.
The Fishman Priest didn’t even seem surprised that the monsters were doing this.
After all, in the eyes of the Fishman Priest, it felt that this was their only choice.
It was clear that they were desperate, which was why they were attacking like this.
All the Fishman Priest did was raise its staff and release the same buffs and healing spells as before.
It didn’t seem worried at all.
It was just too bad that the Fishman Priest didn’t notice that there was a line that was being created between me and it.
Once the monsters had pushed all of the Fishmen guards out of the way, there was electricity that appeared around the crown on my head.
This electricity gathered for a while before suddenly being shot out as a single bolt of lightning.
The barrier of the Fishman Priest just couldn’t resist the power of this bolt of lightning and shattered as soon as it made contact. However, the bolt of lightning didn’t stop there as it continued until it hit the Fishman Priest.
The Fishman Priest trembled twice and was charred from being hit with the bolt of lightning before dropping to the ground.
I was surprised since I didn’t think that the bolt of lightning would be this powerful, but there was no denying the power that it had since it killed the Fishman Priest in one shot.
After the Fishman Priest was finished off by the Thunder Crown, the rest of the Fishmen guards just couldn’t fight back against the wave of monsters around them. The moment that the buffs ran out, they were completely overwhelmed by the enemies attacking them.
However, I didn’t let them kill off these Fishmen guards.
Instead, I had them restrain them and bring them over.
The Fishman Priest had used some kind of spell to break the hypnosis that the Echo Bat put on them, so I wanted to see if the hypnosis would still work on them.

It turned out that after a while, it did.
The immunity that the spell gave these Fishmen guards was just temporary and it disappeared after a while just like the buffs. Though it didn’t fade as quickly as the other buffs.
It really made me wonder what kind of buff the Fishman Priest gave them…
At least it made me aware of the fact that the hypnosis could be broken.
After testing this, I went over to the corpse of the Fishman Priest with the Scavenger Rabbit and had it start digging in that corpse.
In no time at all, the Scavenger Rabbit turned around with loot in its hands.
