"Kill them quickly and sever the connection between mind and body."
"Or else, die together with them in a self-detonation."

"Controlling the mind of the corrupted being, or cutting off the link between its mind and body—both can work. Lightning-element magic and control-type skills are particularly effective against wicked mages."
In truth, as a lower-tier Legendary mage, Gandalf was not entirely clear on the deeper meaning of "corruption." He was only repeating the conclusions his predecessors and comrades had drawn.
