Chapter 56: The Nightmare Battle
When you're overwhelmed by something you're clueless, your intuition can point you in the only direction, and it's better to do something than to sit back and wait. So Ryan struck when an ominous black-red flame ignited on that blood ball.
He spawned a cherry bomb in his hand, stuffed the cherry into a bottle filled with sunlight crystals, and finally pinched the countdown and threw the bottle directly at the monsters on the altar.
Because the legacy of the Assassins had given Ryan unprecedented athleticism, the jar was thrown into the mummy-enclosed clearing in the center of the group and exploded. Those monsters were not given any time to react at all.
Suddenly, it was as if a sun had risen on the altar, and the monsters let out a terrible wail in the sunlight full of life.
After the strongest flashes passed, Ryan squinted his eyes and looked in the direction of the altar. It was found that the blood cell had completely disappeared, and it looked like it might have been purified.
Both the monsters on the altar and the monsters dancing around the altar were hit hard. It was as if the body had been scorched. Even more than half of the puzzled monsters under the altar were fatally hit and scattered into a cloud of carbide.
The mummies on the altar were a little more powerful, and they almost ate a burst of sunlight close to them, but four of the seven mummies still survived. Although the appearance is already burned and coke is no different.
Naturally, the monsters spotted Ryan as an uninvited guest, and roared with the mummy on the altar. The Spell Monsters below are hurtling in the direction Ryan is hiding.
Seeing this, Ryan turned around and ran, after all, the real world is not a game, and in any case, standing on the stake and outputting the turret flow is definitely not suitable for most scenes. He felt that it was best to find a way to use his mobility to slowly consume and fight monsters.
While thinking in his mind, Ryan used his claw hook to hook the mountain wall around the path and move quickly on it, occasionally throwing a few sunlight crystals onto the body of the puzzle monster that was too close (I have to praise magic here, originally the Assassin's claw hook rope has a series of complex structures to ensure that the long rope can be rolled up without taking up space, but magic A telescopic spell perfectly solves the contradiction between the length and volume of the rope). Use the burst of sunlight generated by the Sunlight Crystals after the collision to hinder the progress of those monsters and cause them damage.
In such a chase, there are two previously battered spelling monsters that have been hit too far forward and are repeatedly attacked. After being injured many times, it seems that the damage tolerance has reached the limit, and after each of them received another sunlight crystal, he stopped there. After that, a circle of charred black marks slowly spread from the place where it was hit to the whole body, and finally dispersed into a cloud of carbon slag with a bang.
Encouraged by this result, Ryan was just going to continue to kill all of these puzzles in the style of kite flying. As a result, there was another scream from the side of the altar, and all the Puzzles immediately stopped their pursuit of Ryan as if they had heard some order, turned their heads and ran towards the same place they had set from.
Ryan sensed something was wrong, and tried to throw sunlight crystals at the retreating monsters. The monsters were just trying to dodge, but they didn't look back against Ryan.
These monsters are obviously going to have some conspiracy or what kind of big move they are going to make, and Ryan is not the protagonist of the anime who is stupid and waiting for others to prepare for the action and then take the big move. This kind of thing you know at a glance that there will definitely be a problem for them to run back, so it is definitely the best choice to attack as much as possible and weaken it while the Spelling Monster has not returned.
He chased as he threw sunlight crystals at several of the Puzzles, but the pieces of flesh on the Monsters kept moving, distracting the positive energy from their damage, and after throwing away some of the pieces of flesh that had been hurt too badly, the Monsters ran faster, which also caused Ryan's hit rate to continue to decrease.
Seeing that this trick didn't work, Ryan ventured out and grabbed the Puzzler with a hook attached to the rope and tried to pull it over. But it only moved the piece of flesh on its body slightly, and the hook grabbed into the air, and was pulled back by Ryan's strong pull, almost injuring itself by mistake.
Ryan experimented with firing peas, flames, and psychedelic mushroom spore powder, only to find that the firing peas had recoil, making him farther away from the monster, and pure physical damage was not very effective against the monster. And the range of the flame and spore powder is simply not enough.
Around the corner, Ryan took a shortcut against the stone wall to get in front of the Puzzlers, then used his hook to set up a tripwire to the waist in an attempt to stop the monsters. As a result, the remaining six monsters rushed together and directly pulled the rope.
Taking advantage of the monster's slowing down, Ryan fired several spells, but although all of them hit the monster, they had no effect. It can be seen that except for the light and life energy in the sunlight crystal, which is completely opposite to the monster, other magic does little damage to these monsters.
All efforts to stop and destroy the monsters in advance were ineffective, and none of the monsters were eliminated during the pursuit, except for leaving a lot of scorch marks on the monsters and forcing them to give up a lot of flesh. Ryan could only watch as they turned the last corner and managed to run into the clearing.
After Ryan followed the corner, he saw a terrible scene: the blood ball on the altar that he had thought had been completely purified was floating in the air again, releasing a mist of blood to the outside.
The monsters began to heal after absorbing the blood mist, and the scorched marks on their bodies slowly receded, revealing disgusting pieces of flesh and withered skin.
Did all the useless work just now?, Ryan thought with some despair, but after looking closely, he realized that things had not yet come to that point.
The monsters that had been destroyed had not been resurrected, and the missing pieces of flesh on the combined monsters had not grown back. The mummies seemed to recover, but the weird tattoos on their bodies were gone.
The most important thing is that the blood ball was at least the size of a football that Ryan had just seen, but now it had shrunk to the size of a baseball at most.
When the monsters found out that Ryan was chasing him, they didn't attack him, but began to go around the altar and continue their strange ritual.
Ryan tried to stop it, but unfortunately, a blood-red mist rose around the altar, blocking all the things that Ryan threw over, not only could the sunlight crystals not be thrown away, but the magic was also blocked by this blood-red barrier.
Ryan tried to throw a few stones, which easily passed through the barrier and smashed onto the altar. This shield should only be aimed at energy attacks, and the sunlight crystal, to put it bluntly, is also a solid energy condensation, so it can't get by.
The only killer weapon was useless, Ryan was a little frustrated, did this make him rush into the barrier and fight those monsters hand-to-hand?
