Chapter 345 I have to practice again
Navigate the Underworld with the Eye of Koktar, then grab it with the Three-Barrel Circle. If you can't find an unlucky ghost who is traveling abroad, then you will be selected from among your own subordinates. One Bone Demon, Two Bone Demons, and one Ice Demon...... The Knights of Hell persevered through these challenges, and the magic spear gave them a good advantage. While they were still resting, Feige threw the ten Barbs and their Spike Captain into the training grounds.
Both sides were stunned, staring at each other for two seconds. For the eleven devils, they were on their way to the Styx to escort some goods (slaves), which was just a boring but not risky routine. The powerful teleportation spell they threw into them didn't have time to react, and then the sight of a group of humans stunned the devils. Any devil fantasizes about being summoned to the mortal world one day by some ignorant human who thinks he has the initiative, so that they can control humanity in turn through deception or great power, and then begin the conquest of the mortal world - but definitely not, not suddenly facing nearly thirty heavily armed human warriors.
The members of the Hell Knights were equally caught off guard, thinking that they were in the middle of the challenge to recover and that they had at least half an hour to breathe.
"Raid! Counter-raid!"
This voice erupted from the Knights of Hell, not one or two, but more than a dozen. The knights reacted immediately, gathering in small areas according to the situation on the ground, forming small groups back to back, covering each other, and using the magic spear first. "This is how Monster Hunter fights. Feige was relieved to see the familiar scene, knowing that it was the friends of the Ice Peak Fortress who had truly taught the Knights of Hell what they had learned. "In the wild, you sometimes encounter monsters that can sneak or flee at night, and counter-raids are a response to this. Well...... The devil is not slow to react. ”
The orderliness buried deep in the blood of the devil turned into battlefield discipline, and all the devils reacted at the same time after experiencing the initial stunned. The evil devil can't fully trust his companions, and he can't do back-to-back with the Knights of Hell. However, they immediately charged in the direction of the Commander, the Spike Demon, trying to make contact as fast as they could, and gather together to form a joint force.
The advantages and disadvantages of the two modes are a fraction of a second, and the difference is whether to defend or attack first. Normally, defense will be more cost-effective than offense, but the Devil's offense is obviously easier to concentrate forces to a point. As a result, the Hell Knight on the periphery didn't feel any pressure, and the people who were on the side of the Spike Demon were immediately overwhelmed by the pressure from multiple directions.
"Cover shots, pull out, encircle!"
The magic spear fired, and this time you can see the shortcomings of the Knights of Hell. In the previous battle, they were dealing with the Ice Demon, so the magic guns were all set on the "fire damage" type. In response to the raid, many knights did not modify their elemental type, and still shot fire ammunition at Barbs and Spikes.
"Ice bombs, don't use flames!" The problem is found quickly, but as long as there is a problem, it will definitely cause damage. Barbs who are immune to fire damage are not suppressed by the spear's fire, which causes them to wield their spears even more. For a moment, five Hell Knights were stabbed and dragged over by barbs. They were immediately one of the few to be suppressed, and the Barbs were amazed at the lethality of the spears, and several of them used the captured members of the Hell Knights as meat shields in front of them.
"Don't shoot, don't hurt your own people!
Just as the Knights of Hell were about to establish a fence, the Spike Demon spewed puffs of smoke in all directions. It is a black smoke with a high heat, red burning debris flying out of it from time to time, and its temperature is enough to burn the skin. Both the Barb Demon and the captives were enveloped in a ring of black smoke, and the members of the Knights of Hell, whose view was blocked, were even more afraid to shoot.
Alas...... As a devil, Feige knew immediately what the Barbs and Spikes were going to do. He quietly retreated, and came to the only exit from the training room, where the magic matrix opened, sealing all the exits with a force field that emitted a pale yellow light.
Suddenly, there was a scream of pain in the black smoke, and it was clear that it was the companions who had just been captured. "Burn me!" "It's so hot! It's so hot! Help!" Just as everyone was about to go to the rescue, they heard a continuous crash behind them. When they looked back, there were eight barbed demons and the spiked demon slammed into the yellow force field barrier at the entrance, and although their heads did not break and bleed, they also rolled down to the ground in embarrassment, almost all of them on top of each other.
"You've failed this trial. Feige pulled out the Pit Excalibur and used the shapeshifter to get to the Spike Demon. This hideous devil with burning eyes was covered with spikes from the top of his head to the end of his long tail. When he saw Feige, he immediately swelled his muscles, and the spikes stood up, and the hedgehog and the porcupine bowed to him. In the spike bush, two sharp claws stabbed into Feige's heart. It didn't defend against the Pit Excalibur at all, and it was clear that it was driving with the same fate.
The other barbs were a little slower, but began to swing their weapons at Feige. They figured that Fitch could swing his sword and slash down, or that Captain Spike would be slightly wounded, but that his own weapons would have killed the strange human. But none of them expected that Feiqi was not holding the pit sword as a kitchen knife at all, but as a stun gun.
Thunder flew out of the sword, striking the Spike Demon and spreading in all directions, the dazzling lightning instantly engulfing the demons who tried to teleport and escape. At the same time, the remaining barbed demons burst out of the smoke and pounced on the Hell Knight, who had been caught by the lightning. Fortunately, not everyone was distracted, and the continuous firing of the magic guns woke everyone up, and the group of barbed demons soon died under the random guns.
Twenty-eight (not 29, yesterday I wrote it wrong) Hellknights, after this raid, lost four people, and five wounded. The wounded were all captured by the devil and thrown into the smoke and burned by the fireworks, and the dead were all crushed by the concentrated impact of the barbed demon, and after falling to the ground, they could never get up again. If they can successfully eliminate all the demons, such a loss can be justified - but unfortunately it is Feige who really kills the opponent's main force, not the Knights of Hell.
Using the pit sword to pierce the devil's heads in turn, making sure that the guys who were knocked down by the thunder did not pretend to be dead, Feiqi slowly flew in front of the hell knights. "Pack up and get ready to go back and think about what went wrong. ”
"Lord Feige, we still want to continue the challenge. We do not accept this defeat, we still have combat effectiveness!"
Many people chimed in, and it could be seen that their desire to fight was very strong. On the one hand, it is humiliating to go back after failure, and on the other hand, some people are not able to accumulate a winning streak, which will affect their promotion. Feige looked at them, then shook his head: "If you are the devil, then I will definitely let you continue to fight, and the last remaining ones will naturally be the best devil's men." Hell selection is like that, simple and crude, but very effective. ”
"The devil has no parents and family, only himself, and only thinks about himself, and you are not. You have done well in this battle, but you also have great shortcomings, you can improve by thinking and continuing to train, and you don't need the corpses of your companions to prove yourself. Feige shook his head and said, "I want the Hell Knights, not the Hell Devil Army." Think about these dead people, did they lose their lives because they did something wrong? If you don't understand this, you will only be wiped out. ”
"But......" one of the Hell Knight asked, "My lord, they caught the meat shield, and we couldn't bear to shoot it, and then they were given a chance to teleport." My lord, there was no line of sight at that time, and we hadn't learned the dimensional anchor yet, so we couldn't solve that dilemma. ”
"You're saying that the circumstances weren't inexplicable and unfair to you, right?" Feige hooked his fingers and brought him closer. "Don't be afraid, I want to ask you, you couldn't think of it in a hurry at the time, but now you have come up with it?"
The man shook his head, most of the Hell Knights shook their heads, and the rest took their time to think. Feige pointed to the barbed demon on the ground and said, "How tall are these devils? Are they all taller than ordinary people, at least there is a difference of one head." They hold our people in front of them with one hand, what posture do they use at that time? Will they raise their heads to block them? Aim higher and shoot! As long as you shoot, the other side has to shrink even more, and you have all learned to suppress this with firepower. At this time, don't hesitate to protect yourself with fire runes, and then press down and rush through the fireworks area. Barbs holding captives have at most one hand free, which makes their barbed spears much less powerful. Don't give them a chance to teleport, and don't let the enemy take the initiative. ”
Feige glared at the people of the Hell Knights and said: "What you have to face is monsters and devils! If you weaken your firepower, the other party will kill! If you feel that you can't raise your gun to aim at the head, you can practice when you go back; if you feel that you can't remember the enemy's position and state in an instant, you can practice when you go back; if you feel that there is not much to do about emergencies, you go back and make problems with each other and use collective wisdom to conduct confrontation training! There are also more proficient use of spells, which can be solved by training, first solve them in the training ground!" If these devils don't want to leave today, but teleport and attack you behind your back, forming a real two-sided attack, how much more do you want to pay?"
After a few words, the Hell Knights no longer questioned it, and obediently closed their mouths one by one. They accepted the defeat and began to pack their things for their return. However, in addition to bringing back some barbed spears and devil's heads for the victims, they also brought back reflections on this defeat. Feige held up the Hell Acclimatization Circle for them, then opened the portal and watched them leave in turn.
"Captain, when you come back, the strength of the Hell Knights will be complete. ”
These are the words left by the members of the Hell Knights before leaving, which made Feige's heart warm and he wanted to complain. "These bastards, I guess they want me to clear the danger for them when I go back, and hide behind to enjoy themselves!"
"They just care about you. The old man appeared like a ghost again, his big rough hands caressing the white beard that didn't actually exist. "I don't understand, what the Hell Knights do, you can do faster and better, why do you need to train them?"
"What, are you distressed about the spirit coins used in this training ground?"
"Oh, I'm not the devil, I'm not worried about the cost, but I'm sorry for your time. You're a good spellcaster and researcher, but you're being distracted by training Hell Knights that could be spent on spells. The old man squinted his eyes and asked, "I can understand that you are running a magic school." But are these knights who know a little bit of magic worth the effort of being the caster's bodyguards at best?"
"They can show how strong a person can be. "I'm not a good role model, and the casters of magic schools don't look like role models in the eyes of the average person - the only role model they are familiar with is the knight." ”
"Well, your world is somewhat primitive, so it's understandable to do that. The old man said, "The next training will be in a month's time, and you should always devote all your strength to spell research in this month, right?" ”
"That's right, then there's the Golem Vision, and the spells in your world—but the Golem Vision. Only by mastering this spell will I be able to command the demons on the ground to pass through the portal and conquer other worlds. Don't you have a sense of opposition and disgust at the use of spells to do evil deeds, old man?"
"Anything can be used for evil, and sorcery is just unfortunately the most convenient of them all. The old man said, "You don't have to tell me this nonsense. As a good spellcaster, you know very well that every spell can be countered, just as there are two sides of the coin, and just as there is a balance between good and evil. ”
Feige nodded. He raised his hand, and the demon corpses from this training floated and flew into the teleportation array, and then they were all thrown into the river Styx on the first level of hell. Once in the River Styx, no one can find clues from them, which is the safest way to destroy the corpse.
Leaving the corrupted dungeon, Feige sat back on his throne. From time to time, Crowley would come and report to him on the ground—in fact, he had seen it through the Eye of Koktar and the Lord's Crystal—and he spent the rest of his time thinking about spells.
The puppet vision is not the only spell that can "withdraw consciousness from the body and put it in another position", it is only the first to be proposed by the old man. In the old man's spell system, there are also magic pot soul spells that occupy other people's bodies, astral projections that go to the other world to create bodies, and clones that create weaker versions of themselves, and so on. Fei Qi compares it and finds that the puppet vision is not the most effective, but it is the only one that works—which is why the old man recommended it.
Golems are man-made traps that have no soul but have a "thirst" for souls. Using this "thirst", the creator can make the Golem treat another person's soul as his own, and absolutely obey the orders of that soul, which is the magic principle of "Golem Confession". The puppet vision spell is to use the process of "recognizing the master" to go a step further and synchronize the golem with the human to achieve the purpose of control.
This kind of manipulation does not require the "astral plane" to get the soul into a physical form, and does not need to withdraw Feige's soul from the body, so it does not cause Asmodeirs to be alerted. It's just that golem visions spells have a delay, and the farther away the lag increases. If he wants to conquer other worlds, Feige needs to keep the portal open, otherwise he won't be able to contact the distant golem at all.
After mastering the principles of the spell system in the world of the old man, the spells are easy to learn, but the problem is not easy to solve. Feige translated the puppet vision spell into his magic runes, completing the spell combination construction, but did not start creating the corresponding golem. A mage should strive for excellence, and these kinds of soul-related spells should be able to complement each other's strengths, right?
When it comes to magic, he demands exactly the same thing from himself as he does from the Knights of Hell: think as much as he can, practice as much as he can.
