Chapter 140: The Array of Bondage
When the crowd had come to the vast field at the edge of the town, Elton was the first to exclaim:
"I use red dye, you feel free. ”
It turned out that when he passed by a dye shop on the road, James had bought eight different colors of dye.
The purpose is to have eight people work together, using eight kinds of dyes to mark numbers on all the scarecrows.
After an afternoon of hard work, the Extraordinary Team finally worked together to mark all the scarecrows in the field.
Each color starts at 1 and goes backwards, so if you encounter a scarecrow that your teammates have already marked, go in a different direction.
Finally, 65 were marked by James with green dye, 50 with red at Elton, 40 with Wayne purple, 46 from Jeffrey's black, 43 with Paul gray, 40 with Chris's gold, 36 with Bert's blue, and 30 with Bonnie's pink.
A total of 350 scarecrows divide the vast field into eight areas.
"That's a lot, and if they're all travelers, there's a lot of people passing by here this year. Elton gasped and sat on the floor.
Except for James, who was infinitely powerful, the rest of the people were tired, but they didn't sit on the ground because of the image.
As for Jeffrey, Chris has long since discovered that he has some cleanliness habits, so it is even less likely to be like Elton.
It's six o'clock now, and they can't go to the town for dinner again, after all, the scarecrows are about to move, and it will be troublesome to miss a few.
The crowd hid in a dilapidated wooden hut and waited for the sky to get dark.
Once the scarecrows are completely out of the field, it's time for them to go their separate ways.
Their plan was simple, that is, before the scarecrows began to come out one after another, the eight of them were divided into three groups and guarded the three necessary paths.
Then wait, a scarecrow, and knock one down.
Then gather them together and count them separately, and perhaps the one that is less is what they are looking for.
The area where the scarecrows are distributed with eight dyes was also drawn in detail by James on a drawing to facilitate the final search.
As the sky grew darker, the crowd had left the abandoned hut and hid themselves on the three paths leading to the town.
The three groups are James, Wayne and Bert, Jeffrey and Elton and Chris, Paul and Bonnie.
In this way, each group is guaranteed to have a strong firepower.
It didn't take long to wait, just like last night, the scarecrows in the field broke free from their restraints and began to move stiffly towards the town.
Chris and Paul crouched at the back of the house, and when they saw the first scarecrow appear, Chris immediately used water elemental magic to freeze each other and become a scarecrow ice sculpture.
Then the trio worked together to move the ice sculpture to the shadows next to the house, waiting for the next one.
There is no way, if Chris uses fire magic, I am afraid that the other party will become a "fire man" and end up being burned to ashes.
On the other side, James used the strength characteristic of his "warrior" approach to easily knock down one scarecrow after another.
Jeffrey, on the other hand, used his unique extraordinary ability to attract some simple spirits directly into the bodies of those scarecrows, causing them to come together on their own, and then stand still.
This made Elton on the side secretly surprised, he didn't expect Jeffrey to control the spirit to such a point now.
In the past, Jeffrey could only summon a few spirits for a short time, but now he can control them superficially.
After nearly half an hour, seeing that no more scarecrows were coming, the three groups began to count the number of scarecrows separately.
After communicating with the "Ring of Hearts", the results have come out, 119 from James, 116 from Jeffrey, and 114 from Chris.
There is also the color and quantity of dyes on the respective scarecrows.
Sure enough, there was still a scarecrow missing, and the one that was missing was marked with gold dye.
It's the area that Chris marked in the afternoon, the southeast of the field.
After ten minutes, the eight of James converged on the edge of the southeast area of the field, and all they had to do now was to find the scarecrow who had been hiding without moving.
The Extraordinary Team then began to search the area, but after looking for it, there was still not a single scarecrow.
"What's wrong?" Wayne frowned, "Why aren't you here?"
As soon as Wayne finished speaking, things took a sudden change.
I saw that the residents who were supposed to be waiting for the scarecrow to reunite in their respective homes actually walked towards them from all directions, showing a trend of surrounding.
"Beware, everyone, we're stepping into a trap!" said the experienced James.
It is clear that their whereabouts have been completely exposed, and while they are clearing the scarecrows, these residents have been controlled by those behind the scenes, and they have been waiting here.
And it's night, and tonight is a crescent moon, and only Jeffrey, who is not afraid of the night, and James, who is the most spiritual, can see the surroundings clearly.
Elton's right hand was hurriedly raised, only to see a raging flame appear, which lit up the surrounding environment.
I saw the numb and hateful eyes of the inhabitants clearly, with a crazy look on their faces.
Chris on the side shook his hand and found that the fire in his hand was gradually extinguished. Because of the frozen scarecrows just now, Chris's spirituality was running out.
Only a "bang" of gunshots was heard, and it turned out that Jeffrey had shot a resident in the lower limbs, but it was the same as in the morning.
No blood came out, only some straw squeezed out of it.
And they obviously don't have much sanity now, and they are walking towards the extraordinary team with their teeth and claws.
Seeing this scene, James didn't dare to use the blasting ability casually, and used his powerful strength to punch a person away.
After all, after the strengthening of the physical fitness of the "warriors" and "barbarians", James, who is already a "blasting expert", has reached an astonishing level of strength.
Even if you don't use his extraordinary abilities, he is very good in melee combat.
Jeffrey continued to control some spirits into their bodies to keep them from moving forward.
Elton burned flames with his hands, probably because of his natural fear of flames, and no one dared to approach Elton.
At this time, Wayne protected Bonnie and Bert, and Bert directly took off the backpack and began to take out various spiritual materials from it.
He's going to set up a whole new ritual magic: the Circle of Bondage!
This was inadvertently whispered by a terrifying being who claimed to be the god of Fu, and was written down by Bert.
Just hearing him babble a few times, Bert almost went insane.
Fortunately, he has always been resolute and has a strong personality, and he has a preliminary understanding of how to use this ritual magic.
"Please give me three minutes, this ritual magic should be able to take them out in one go. Bert shouted to his teammates as he laid out the different spiritual materials.
After hearing Bert's words, out of trust in his teammates, James and the others consciously formed a circle and protected Bert inside.
Because of the restrictions of the "Scott's Shield", they are not ready to use it until the moment of crisis.
As Bert chanted and prayed over and over again in Constantine, he saw that the spiritual materials on the ground began to glow and shine, and finally burst into flames.
Immediately, in the surprised eyes of everyone, they saw a yellow pentagram appear under the ritual magic.
The inhabitants who had gone crazy were unanimous in their frustration, and they did not move any more.
Bert's ritual magic has worked!
"What kind of ritual magic is this?" exclaimed James as he looked at the resident who had become motionless.
And Wayne on the side also asked softly:
"It's so amazing, I've never heard you mention it before. ”
At the moment when the ritual magic was successful, Bert felt that his spirituality had been drained, and at this time he leaned on Chris a little weakly and said:
"This ritual magic is called the Bondage Array, and I learned it by accident some time ago. ”
"It's great. Elton gave Bert a thumbs up, then looked at James and asked, "What are we going to do next?"
James looked at the pitch-black field in the distance and said in a deep voice:
"Now that the other side has set a trap for the townspeople to attack us, it means that it is well aware of our actions. ”
At this moment, a young voice suddenly sounded in Chris's head:
"Your spirituality has dried up, let me come, I have a way to find its hiding place!"
Chris was terrified in his heart, and he naturally knew who was talking in his head.
But what made him frightened was that now another soul in his body was able to talk to him?
However, no matter how much Chris called in his heart, the voice did not sound again.
There is no way, considering that his spirituality has indeed been exhausted, he can't do much now, and there is still an agreement for half an hour.
So Chris had to close his eyes and wait for the other party to appear.
The moment Chris closed his eyes, another "Chris" quickly took over the body.
The moment Chris opened his eyes, the golden light in his eyes flashed, leaving only a faint blue in his pupils.
Jeffrey suddenly turned his head to look at Chris, and there was a strange color in his gaze.
I'm afraid that here, only Jeffrey sensed the difference in Chris at this moment.
The corners of Chris's mouth rose involuntarily, and he walked up to James and said:
"I have a way to find the hidden scarecrow doll. ”
Then, without waiting for the other party to answer, Chris took out "greedy money" from his pocket, and after roughly feeding a gold coin, he said loudly:
"Please help me find who is behind this incident!"
To everyone's surprise, they saw the strange-looking pocket watch floating in the air on its own, emitting a golden light that had never been seen before.
