As expected, Raymond and the others were entangled once again, while most of the summons around them were cut down.
Although these merman zombies refined through Necromantic Witchcraft were known as immortal monsters, they were actually just chunks of corpses sustained by negative energy.
This was similar in principle to Activation Technique. Once their Witchcraft Energy was depleted, or the bodies carrying it were completely destroyed, they would truly die.
