Chapter 60: The Strongest Call
When the door of space instantly turned into a black-red aura and dispersed, the thing summoned by the commandment appeared in place.
It was a disgusting-looking mass of flesh, about 1.5 meters tall, with a vaguely discerning humanoid torso and head, and its facial features distorted as if they were melting. It had a pair of short arms, no feet, and seemed to be moved by the soft flesh that seemed to be spread on the ground as if it had melted away.
I silently recited the "Fire" command and rushed forward, swinging my flaming +1 Blazing Sword while using "Onslaught".
With just one blow, the disgusting thing was cut in half before it even had time to say a word......
The corpse vanished in a black-red aura, leaving no dross behind.
The stunned little fat mage froze in place for a moment before he exclaimed, "How can this be, I haven't had time to give it an order yet!" He shouted to the heavens and the earth: "Although the inferior demon is the weakest of the devils, it is also the strongest creature I can summon now, why is it that the sword is gone......"
"Cut!" The bounty hunter who was watching the battle disdainfully spat on his younger brother, "I remember the last time you were fighting in the ogre wizard's black shop, you also summoned this thing, and it was knocked out by two ogres with a few sticks, why are you still summoning this kind of waste now, and you haven't grown!" ”
Yichen, who was also watching the battle from the side, shrugged his shoulders and explained: "Last time, he was a level 3 mage, and now he has been promoted to level 1, but a level 4 mage can only use a level 2 spell at the highest level like a level 3 mage. Forget it, what good goods can be summoned by the second-level summoning monster technique, and the inferior demon is one of the more difficult ones. Although the weakest of the Devils, as a Devil Clan, there is a certain amount of damage reduction against general weapon and spell damage, but this damage reduction is useless against silver-plated, adamantite, or magically enhanced weapons. The magic sword in Scorpio's hand just restrained the most difficult trait of inferior demons. ”
Yichen turned to me again, "The Devil Clan has a special ability to be immune to fire and toxins, and has a strong resistance to cold and acid. So your attack just now relied on the damage dealt to it by the +1 longsword itself, and the fire damage attached to the blazing weapon is completely ineffective against the inferior demons. ”
"Yes, the Devils have the same spell resistance as our Dark Elves, and the spell resistance may be strong or weak depending on their strength, but even the weakest inferior demon has a four-in-four chance that the spells cast by a level 1 mage will be invalidated. The devil also has the supernatural ability to see things in the dark, and can see clearly in any kind of darkness, even if it is formed by the 'Deep Darkness Technique'. and the supernatural ability of telepathy, through which demons other than inferior demons can communicate with any living creature within 30 meters of them that can use language. I casually answered, "Bad demons actually don't have brains, they can only sense the messages sent by other demons through telepathy, and will obey the instructions of the other party. Therefore, the command just said that he had to give an order was in vain, and he couldn't communicate with the bad demons he had summoned at all. On the contrary, because the inferior demon is brainless, it is also ineffective against any effect that affects the mind. ”
This time it was Yichen's turn to be dumbfounded: "What...... Why, I'm a mage, so I need to know these things, but you seem to know better than I do? And if you know that the Bad Demon is immune to fire, why do you want to release it? ”
"I spent a lot of time reading books in my family's library." I replied cheerfully, "The Blazing Sword will fire as long as it reads the command, and there is no limit to the number of times...... Don't you think it's more flashy to wield a flaming weapon? ”
……
The crowd was silent.
“…… The Bad Demon is really too weak. I checked my state and frowned, "I didn't gain any experience points!" ”
"What do you mean?" He glared at me hatefully, "Are you saying that my strongest summoning technique is only the strength of kobolds or goblins?" ”
"Uh~~~ It should be stronger, but I really didn't gain experience points." I consoled myself and told the truth.
I can solve ordinary kobolds or goblins with just one sword, and I can also cut the bad demons you summoned in half with one sword. If the bad demons are not the devil family, there are some difficult characteristics, which is stronger and which is weak, it is really hard to say.
He hid in a corner and squatted on the ground with our backs and drew circles with his fingers......
Ignoring the commandment that was depressed after being hit, Yichen said with a smile: "Try it for me, although I am only 1 level higher than the commandment, I can use the third-level summoning monster technique." ”
What Yichen summoned was a Purgatory Leopard.
The Purgatory Leopard looks the same as a normal leopard, except that its coat is black and red. It took some time to fight the Purgatory Panther, because it was not weaker than me, but more agile than me. Because it is a creature of purgatory, it has some resistance to cold and fire, and the flames attached to the Blazing Sword are not completely ineffective, but the damage is limited.
I wouldn't fall behind against a notoriously agile opponent like the Leopard, after all, I'm going to be an agile warrior, and the two specialties of "dodging" and "nimble movement" that are good at dodging enemy attacks are not for nothing.
However, even if Yichen was a level 5 mage, his summoning technique only lasted for half a minute, and the limited time was not suitable for fighting.
I sold a flaw and lured the Purgatory Leopard into pounce, holding the small steel shield on my left hand against its minions, exposing its belly to the vital point, so that the +1 Blazing Sword in my right hand pierced the Purgatory Leopard's heart.
But although the little steel shield was against the teeth and front paws of the Purgatory Leopard, I was still severely raked and scratched twice by its hind legs.
I watched as the Purgatory Panther vanished in a black-red aura, and hurried to check my condition...... This time, I did have experience points, which is exactly what I can get by killing the lowest-level opponent who can get experience points......
Isn't it~~~ The lowest level of opponents I can gain experience points have this level? I was scratched twice by its rake, and if it weren't for the +1 Mithril breastplate on my body, and the place where it grabbed it happened to be the strongest metal armor between the chest and abdomen, it would have been impossible not to get hurt.
But it's right to think about it, the strength of the bear goblin or ogre is not worse than that of the leopard, but the focus is on strength and constitution, and I can easily avoid attacks with lower agility than me. I am often used to attacking the opponent's vital points, no matter how high their physique is, no matter how long their life is, it is no fun to be attacked to the vital point. So it's just my style of play that restrains them, and it is tricky to run into opponents who are also agile.
"I thought you'd summon the cowardly." I said lightly to Yichen.
Cowardly demons are purgatory-dwellers like inferior demons, but they are not devils, but a more powerful demon race, and although they are also the weakest demons, they are much stronger than brainless demons who can only physically attack.
"Cowardly, although the difficult characteristics of the demon clan are no less than those of the devil clan, the cowardly demons can cast the 'dark magic', 'group panic technique' and 'mind remote control' at will, and the 'stinky cloud technique' that can be used once a day is also very practical, but the movements are slow, stupid and inefficient, and they often forget to use their own spell-like abilities when fighting...... Alas~~~" Yichen sighed and continued: "In the face of an opponent like you, Bacheng is also the same as the bad demon summoned by the commandment, and he was cleaned up by you in one round. ”
He said triumphantly: "It's still right for me to summon this Purgatory Leopard, it's exciting to fight, and you won't feel that there is no challenge ****." ”
……
Didn't this guy's original intention be to help me get experience points to level up?
