Chapter 100 Find a reasonable explanation
"Let me try!"
When the monster appeared at the door, Xia Ni flipped her wrist, and everyone noticed that her hands were full of small iron balls. These small iron balls are usually thrown on the road to cause enemies to fall, or they are barely packed in slingshots and slingets as projectiles. They are very powerful, but the good thing is that they are in large quantities.
With two clicks, all the iron balls were thrown. The monster on the opposite side showed a terrifying smile with the human face of the mouthed Lyhood, and then suddenly disappeared in front of everyone.
The iron ball slammed into the wall, then rolled on the ground in the doorway, and the sound of rattling set off the inexplicable silence.
"It's not out there, left or right. Tron poked his head out to look, then listened: "It's so fast, I can't hear it at all, not even the wind." ”
"It's not normal, no creature can go so fast. Chaudor narrowed his eyes, rubbed his chin, and thought. He suddenly thought that there was a calmer and smarter Feige next to him, so why bothered his brain, so he turned his head to look.
Feiqi looked up for a moment when the monster appeared, and just lowered his head again, continuing his work of loading the runes of the magic matrix. "Aren't you going to say something?" said Geud as he poked his fingers in Feige's shoulder, "What are we going to do next?"
"Did that guy come in and beat us?"
"It's not ......"
"Tron, how many people are there in Gujian Castle?"
"More than the Ice Peak Fortress, fourteen people. ”
"Zombies have very low combat power, so just be careful and explode. The door is open, take out the hallway from a distance, don't let the zombies get close - it's not that difficult, is it?" Feige said while providing mana to the runes, "That monster is unnaturally fast, even if you wipe your neck with a blade, we will all die, but it won't come in and kill it." Since it doesn't do this, then the situation hasn't changed from before, what are you going out to do? Complete the previous plan first, and wait until I finish the runes. I guess it'll be seven or eight minutes. ”
"That's it, wait a little longer?" Tron scratched his head, still a little confused. "Okay, I'm guarding the door, who's going to help me look behind me?"
"I'll come. With a great bow, Anne and Tron went back to back to the door, staring at the hallway and the direction of the stairs. Qiao Duo scratched his earlobe and sighed, he didn't like this feeling of waiting for the rabbit, he always felt very passive and not refreshing enough. The charging hero and the passionate music make for a romantic and beautiful battle.
"Shanny, Beni, you two protect Feiqi, there is no other task than that. As he had finished speaking, he noticed that Bennie's face was very bad, and a faint blue was spreading up her neck and cheeks, and from her shoulders to her arms.
He hurried over and pressed his thumb to Bennie's brow. "Focus, breathe deeply, relax. Everybody's around......"
"I wasn't feeling well, I was scared somehow, just when I saw the monster. I ......" Bennie gradually calmed down, and the blue on her skin faded like a tide. "I've probably seen that kind of monster. ”
"I feel that way, too. Shani's voice came from behind the veil: "But you know, it's obviously impossible. ”
"Don't talk about you, I feel the same way. Qiao Duo nodded as well. "Feige, Tron, what about you?"
As a result, I found out that everyone had the same feeling except for goblin friends, as if they had encountered this monster somewhere, at a certain time, but if you remember it carefully, you can't remember it.
"You're in the middle of the evil hiss, so you're all right!
"Let's find another opportunity for you to be the commander in the future. Feige touched the top of his head, then stood up. On his arm, the glow of the magic matrix dimmed, but the ice runes had fused into one, so they were all dimmed and hidden.
"Isn't there seven or eight minutes left?" asked Shani.
"I'm lying. Feige rubbed his face, rubbed his hair, and jumped twice on the spot to regain his body and relax his mind for a moment. "Got an idea?"
Feige nodded. "The monster behaved very strangely, and the patterns of action it displayed in combat were unpredictable. In other ways, though, there are traces. ”
"For now, the clerk's diary is credible and all the descriptions are correct. However, the most important message in it is not that it is afraid of ice, but this sentence: betrayed the knighthood, collected a lot of silver coins, and hid it. ”
"Why does this monster sell knighthoods? Or do you sell it to ordinary villagers who are not very wealthy, or even to out-and-out robbers, and even willing to sell a single bridge as a so-called fief. His target was actually silver coins. Think about it, every year the church's support to the various fortresses is gold in addition to supplies. Become a lord, the support of the church is still gold. Gujian Fort has more people than Ice Peak Fortress, and more money has been sent, most of which will be gold, of course. ”
"It wants silver and it doesn't buy anything, so what it wants is silver. Feige noticed that some people already understood, but continued, "Silver is used in many spells, especially the carving circle, and silver is the most commonly used material besides mercury. Therefore, nine times out of ten, this monster has set up some kind of magic circle, and then uses the power of the magic circle to move. It wasn't actually that fast, it was just the effect of a spell - otherwise, how could it be the turn of the monster hunters in Gujian Castle to test it with fire, lightning, and bows, one item after another?
"Each fortress in the Sunset Mountains has a Thunder Divine Protective Circle, which is scattered all over the fortress. The circle attacked it, and then it wasn't afraid of lightning, but it also drained its energy reserves. So, it can only repeat the process of charging and casting to deal with the opponent - it's rhythmic. I speculate that the energy released at one time may not be able to balance all of us at the same time, and it is best to find a chance to be alone. Perhaps the only time it actually killed someone was to hunt down the guy who rode away. Compared to the unreasonable high speed and tactical tactics of the black monster, this explanation of mine is more likely to be realized. So Tron, you even know the secret passage, so do you know where the center of the Gujian Fort Protection Circle is?"
"I haven't been, but I know about it - that's the only place in the entire fortress that I'm not allowed to enter, so it must be. Tron thought for a moment and asked, "Feiqi, apart from the association between silver and the magic circle, how can you be sure that the black monster is a spell effect?"
"And because we all think it's familiar—except for friends. "I don't know how you guys train Georgdor, but it's clear that your senses are beyond the ordinary. That monster is fighting with us with the help of the defensive circle in the fortress, and it may even have been monitoring us, its breath has always been there, but it doesn't match its image, and this is actually the situation that everyone perceives. Punk relies on sight and smell, so there will be no such dislocation. ”
"You say that...... It's a lot like ......" Chaudor licked his lips as if he had tasted it. "It's kind of like somebody sneaking into my house and being sneaking a peek. Ahhhhh
"Don't go crazy, let's go get it. That black shadow monster appears again, let's do a good job of defense, be careful not to be careless, and then follow Tron to the control core of the magic defense array. Feige moved for a moment, then gently patted his left hand on everyone's shoulder, secretly casting the Law Seal: Armed with Law. "May the Goddess bless you," he said, patting a button.
Qiao Duo tugged at the flesh on his cheeks with his hand, and then moved his jaw: "What kind of magic is this?
"Doesn't the troubadour need to be thick-skinned?" Feige said with a laugh. However, the best protection on Chaudor was not the luxurious breastplate, but the skin. Is he human?
After casting seven magic seals in a row, the consumption of mana was not light, Fei Qi drank some water, poured some on the top of his head, and then used the method of mana training to recover. Everyone walked together, close to the body, back to back, always paying attention to the front and back, left and right, up and down directions. Youtron kept his ears pricked up to listen, so Feige put away Hawkeye global vision, so that he could recover faster.
They went to the room that controlled the castle's drawbridge and gate, locked the mechanism, and removed the key components. Tron proposes to lower the iron gates and catch the enemy in an urn, but Feige feels that he can't be careless. Although he was confident in his own judgment, what if it was wrong? Because of the fact that Georg Duo and the girls, plus the friends, all unconditionally support Feige. So the door was eventually open.
"Try to take the road inside the castle as much as possible. Feiqi said, "There are far fewer Thunder Divine Defense Circles inside than on the outer walls. We inadvertently got this right thing before. ”
Everyone maintained a close formation that was almost circular, not seeking the fastest, but seeking the most stability, like a patient hard-shelled turtle slowly walking through the castle. Feige surveyed the walls around him, searching for clues to the protective circle. When they came to a corner, the walls were adorned with reliefs of knights charging on horseback, and a node of the defensive circle was hidden in the intricate texture of fluttering horsehair.
The monster suddenly reappeared, standing in front of the relief. It spread its bat-like wings, flicked its whip-like tail from side to side, fangs and claws, and Hood's face roared a word of intimidation from the monster's mouth—but the crowd was not panicked at all, and the formation was still firmly in control.
"Shani, do you still have steel balls?" Feige touched the masked woman next to him with his elbow, "Try it again?"
"As you wish. Shani reached into the pocket of her skirt and dug it in, then grabbed two more handfuls of steel balls and threw them over. The monster smiled contemptuously, its figure swaying, moving sideways, easily dodging the balls.
"Shot the horse's eye in relief, left eye. Feige said to Tron.
The armor-piercing crossbow flew over with a whizz. In normal training, Tron is the most serious and focused and the most effective, and this shooting shows his level. After an accurate hit, the horse's eye was directly shattered, and the key characters of the Divine Defense Rune were destroyed. The black shadow suddenly lost half of its body, and then hurriedly disappeared.
"It does have something to do with the circle here. Qiao Duo nodded and said with a relaxed smile: "Once you know what's going on, the rest will be easy." ”
"Don't relax, we just know the enemy's methods, but what the enemy looks like and what other abilities he has, we don't know for the time being. Don't forget the dry corpses - we haven't won yet. ”
