Chapter 427: The so-called lava, of course, also contains rock and soil
"Yo-Hal, aren't you surprised to see me?" Jiang Yan squatted next to a deep dirt pit dug in a corner of the exercise field with a smile on his face in a way that seemed to greet neighbors, and beckoned to Hal in the hollow below.
However, in Howl's eyes, he only felt a heartbeat.
Subconsciously, he wanted to run away.
However, just as he was about to make a move, Jiang Yan suddenly slapped his palm on the ground, and the ice-blue aura flashed out, instantly turning into an extreme cold qi and spreading to the underground hollow, and in the blink of an eye, all the stone walls in the hollow below were covered with a layer of ice, like an iron wall in a cage.
If Hal hadn't seen the opportunity and jumped up to avoid the moment when the ice spread, his feet might have been frozen with the stone wall.
Thankfully, the enemy seemed to be merciful, and when Hal landed again, the frost under his feet no longer spread and spread, allowing him to stand on the ice normally for the time being.
Hal raised his foot with an ugly face and stomped hard, finding that he had secretly instilled the strength of his feet strengthened by spiritual power, but he was unable to step on the ice to make a crack.
“...... How did you find me?" After the trial, Hal confirmed that this layer of ice wall was not something he could break with a move and a half, and he began to signal the earth dragon in his heart, and asked Jiang Yan curiously in a half-truth.
He was now in danger of being a turtle in an urn, and most of this questioning was to stall for time.
In order to facilitate the dragon to fight according to the tactics, before the dust and fog completely dissipated at the beginning, Hal followed the earth dragon to dive into the ground with the help of its natural ability, otherwise if it was left on the surface, when the enemy had no way to face the rogue tactics of the earth dragon, he might have targeted Hal.
After diving underground together, Hal first asked the Earth Dragon to secretly dig a simple hole in the ground in a remote corner of the exercise field at a depth of more than ten meters as a temporary hiding place, and Hal stayed alone in the hole, and then separated from the Earth Dragon.
Without having to be distracted by taking care of Hal, who is the owner of the contract, the Earth Dragon can more easily sneak underground, and can retreat back underground to rest and recover at any time according to tactics, significantly improving its mobility and flexibility.
It's a pity that the tactics are still in their infancy, and Hal was caught by the enemy, and the original tactics naturally failed.
"When did you get the illusion that 'you are hiding very secretly'?" Jiang Yan said with a smile: "Since I know that you are hiding underground, then I will naturally follow this clue and start searching." The excavated and refurbished soil will inevitably have some unusual incongruities with the original environment around it, but as long as you follow these traces, is it difficult to find?"
"How could it be...... We've disguised ourselves!" Hal asked incredulously, stalling as he continued to test the information.
As long as it is delayed for a while, I believe that the earth dragon will come to rescue him soon, and Hal is also really curious about Jiang Yan's way to find him.
"I don't have to lie to you. Jiang Yan pursed his lips disdainfully: "You shouldn't forget, when we were studying tracking related courses, I was particularly good at observing, analyzing, and finally finding out abnormal clues in environmental intelligence information, do you really think that your hastily disguised can not reveal the slightest flaw?"
Hearing this, Hal couldn't help but be speechless, and also recognized Jiang Yan's words.
At that time, Jiang Yan, even if he was only in the state of the remnant personality, still inherited many characteristics of his abilities, such as fine control, unforgettable memory, supernatural computing power, and data analysis ability...... With these, the remnant personality has been greatly superior to those test subjects who grew up with him since he was a child.
For example, researchers randomly created hundreds of footprints in the wild, and Jiang Yan could analyze the number of footprints left by how many people left them in just three or five breaths, the ratio of men and women in the number, the age of each footprint owner, walking habits, weight, and the time period of footprint remaining...... All kinds of information and intelligence.
Even, after combining the course of psychology, Jiang Yan can even roughly analyze the emotional state of the owner of these footprints when he left the footprints, and without relying on the assistance of extraordinary techniques such as 'time image regression' and 'breath tracing', he used his own natural advantages to almost bring the tracking technique of the ordinary realm to the extreme.
This gave a considerable shock to the friends of the same period and the instructors of the institute at that time, and Hal was of course very aware of it.
"Alright, that's all for gossip, let's get down to business. Jiang Yan skipped this topic, looked at Haar's uncertain face below, and couldn't help laughing: "Na, you seemed to be looking forward to this battle before, but in fact, I was the same, because ah......"
With his hands clasped together, Jiang Yan began to clench his fists with a click, making a crisp bone sound, with a classic posture of 'let's get together now'.
After moving his muscles and bones, Jiang Yan clenched his hands into fists, and the ice crystal armor on his body began to circulate aura, and even his hands were covered with a pair of fist armor.
"I have a lot of grievances about that defeat two years ago, and I want to talk to you...... ——! with your fist"
The next moment, Jiang Yan stomped his foot fiercely, originally there was a layer of stone wall between him and Hal, and only a small gap in the stone wall that was barely allowed to pass through was opened for the two of them to be, but now under Jiang Yan's foot, it was finally shattered.
His whole body fell with the broken rubble, and he unceremoniously slammed his fist into Howl's face.
Hal, who had already anticipated Jiang Yan's movements, hurriedly raised his arms to block, and at the same time, there were spiritual power light patterns on his arms that seemed to be electric wires. Not only his arms, but also all of Hal's whole body, all the skin exposed on the outside of his clothes, there were similar spiritual light patterns appearing, even in the places that were hidden by the clothes.
After these spiritual power light patterns manifested, the aura emanating from Hal's body suddenly became much stronger, and there was a glimmer of light on his skin, and he felt inexplicably tougher.
This is not an illusion, because this is a spirit technique that Hal has been preparing for a long time: "** strengthening", a technique that uses spiritual power to increase physical fitness.
Generally speaking, the elven envoy is a profession that envoys elves to fight, and it is another matter when high-level cultivation is made, but when it comes to low-level cultivation, the elven envoy itself is often more vulnerable, and many times on the battlefield it will be regarded as the weakness of the elves to be targeted by the enemy. Naturally, there are many people who will find a way to compensate for this weakness.
As a result, the technique of "** strengthening" is very commonly used by elven envoys to strengthen elven envoys' consistent melee shortcomings.
Don't underestimate this technique. Although the practice of simply attaching spiritual power to the body to strengthen can also achieve a similar effect, that method is too rough, and with a systematic and standardized technique to operate spiritual power, it is like the difference between ordinary people 'running with their feet' and 'pedaling a bicycle', spending the same effort, but with the help of a tool called 'technique', the effect is not at the same level at all.
Jiang Yan himself often uses the elven technique of "** strengthening", so he is naturally no stranger to Howl's actions, and even the small actions of Hal quietly preparing to cast spells are clear to him.
However, Jiang Yan did not stop it, but let Hal prepare, because-
"Very good, this way, you can take a few more punches from me!"
Jiang Yan laughed a little excitedly, and traces of the strengthening technique also appeared on the surface of his body, and then he smashed a heavy fist on Howl's crossed arms with a downward momentum.
Obviously, it was only between two teenagers aged ten and twelve...... Or the fist and foot contest between the little boys, but the momentum was unexpectedly huge, only to see a very dull roar from the place where the two sides collided, like a muffled bell and drum, some of the gravel in the underground cavity shook a little, and a circle of impact-type air explosions visible to the naked eye burst out from the place of the exchange, turning into a whistling gale wind that caused the bangs in front of the two people who were fighting to fluctuate.
"Gollum......" Hal's face changed drastically, and he made a sullen sound, only to feel that his arms were almost in a state of stiffness in addition to the intense pain, and at the same time, there was an irresistible force pressing down from the position of his arms, pressing his body unstable for a while, and his knees were almost kneeling half-bent.
Howl's gaze looked at Jiang Yan in horror - the other party's punch was really heavy beyond his expectations!
didn't give Hal a chance to regain his momentum, Jiang Yan grinned happily, and three or two punches slammed down without delay, not even relying on any martial arts boxing skills, just relying on the terrifying brute force to stiffen Howl's defensive posture, and his arms were smashed open by the force of his fists, making the opponent's door wide open.
Then, Jiang Yan slammed an old fist into his eye socket under Howl's frightened gaze, hitting him so hard that his eyes were blurred, his vision was blurred, and his consciousness was in a trance.
In a trance, Hal only felt his collar being pulled roughly, and then under a strong tug, the whole body involuntarily rose into the air, fell into a state of weightlessness and rose for a few seconds, only to feel the gravitational pull again and fall, and then fell heavily on the hard ground.
It is estimated that the height of the fall just now should be six or seven meters, if it weren't for Hal's body instinctively maintaining the strengthening technique, this time he might have to fall again, it would be a straight fall without a defensive posture at all, and if you are unlucky, a small internal injury is possible.
Rao is like this, Hal also felt a faint pain in his body, and after slowing down three or five breaths, he endured the faint pain and forced himself to refresh himself, got up from the ground, one eye was mostly half-open and bruised, and quickly looked at the surrounding environment.
What caught my eye was the familiar exercise site and the people of the research institute on the edge of the distance.
'Thrown back to the surface?' Hal quickly turned his gaze straight ahead of him.
Jiang Yan was wearing an ice-blue crystal armor that was as clear as crystal, jumped out of a deep pit not far away like a cannonball, and landed seven or eight meters away from Hal in front of him, but his knees bent slightly, and he lightly dissipated the force of the fall, and then stood up leisurely and began to look at Hal with interest.
After his gaze fell on Hal's face, he couldn't help but laugh, and said very happily: "Not bad, it's just a little asymmetrical......"
Hal, who had a panda eye that was gradually turning purple, endured the pain in his eyes, and knew very well what the other party was teasing him at this moment, but he didn't make a sound, silently suppressed his instinctive anger, and began to be distracted and used the contract to sense the condition of his earth dragon.
More than half a minute had passed since he gave the order, but the other party still hadn't arrived, and Hal knew that the Earth Dragon was also in trouble.
Especially after leaving the underground, Hal didn't find any trace of the lava slime that was supposed to stay on the ground, and he didn't see the slime by Jiang Yan's side just now, so it goes without saying what the other party is doing now.
Sure enough, the next moment, there was a faint rumbling sound on the ground at the foot of the exercise ground, accompanied by a slight shaking sensation.
Faintly, through the thick layer of earth, Hal could still hear some slight roars coming from underground.
"Are you thinking about your Earth Dragon?" As if he knew Howl's thoughts, Jiang Yan smiled: "You don't have to count on it, that guy must be busy 'playing' with Xiaobai now!"
As soon as Jiang Yan's words fell, the ground below the exercise ground shook slightly, and the amplitude and frequency became more and more obvious.
"Your elf...... That slime, can it still sneak underground?" Hal looked at the unusual movement, instantly understood something, and asked in a deep voice with a mixture of anger and anger.
"Hal, looks like you're going to need to go over the language dictionary again. Jiang Yan looked at him in surprise and said, "Don't you know that the so-called 'lava' is essentially a form formed by the liquefaction of rock and soil under the influence of high temperatures?"
After two seconds of silence, Hal asked in a dry tone, "...... In other words, that lava slime of yours actually has the ability to manipulate 'rock and soil'?"
"That's right, it has the properties of both 'fire' and 'earth', this is the so-called 'lava', and sneaking under the ground or something is not a difficult task for Xiaobai. Jiang Yan smiled and nodded, then looked down at the ground shaking more and more obviously under his feet.
"If you count the time, it should be about the same. ”
As his words fell, which seemed to be a declaration, the ground in the exercise ground shook violently, and then a deep crack opened, and the rumbling sound suddenly became much clearer, and it was coming up from the depths of the crack from far and near.
"Roaring ——!!"
Two or three seconds later, a giant lava serpent about the size of two adults holding hands and holding each other came out of the cracks of the cracks, and let out a deafening roar at the sky, scarlet sparks and drops of red magma spilled out of the lava serpent's maw, and fell to the ground with a sneering sound and wisps of scorched smoke.
Needless to say, this exaggerated lava snake was transformed from Jiang Yan's original lava slime.
Compared to the previous image, the surface of the lava serpent's body is no longer covered with hot magma that can easily melt iron with just touch, and it seems that the magma has all been confined to the inside of the body, like blood, wrapped in dark red rocks that resemble skin, muscles, and bones.
For example, if the original slime form was composed of nine parts of magma and one part of rock and soil, then the current form of the snake form is composed of two parts of magma and eight parts of rock and soil.
After roaring, the lava serpent continued to crawl through the subtle linkage between the 'muscles' made of inch by inch of rock and soil like a real snake, making a clattering and rubbing sound, and before the speed was enough, it quickly completely burrowed out of the crack in the ground.
Even with it, a big guy who was tightly wrapped around its snake body was also taken out of the crack, and as if he was a little unhappy, he directly flicked the snake's tail when he came out, and smashed the belly of the other party's scale armor that was already dissatisfied with the wound with a bang.
