Chapter 208: The Tide of Beetles
Closing the heavy book, Ryan's excited mood could not be calmed for a long time, he took off the glove of his left hand, and gently stroked the blue mark on it, his eyes showing surprise and a faint fear. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
At this moment, he no longer had the pride of surging demonic energy, and there was only rejection and worry.
Lester's accident can be regarded as reckless, Taylor's sacrifice was voluntary, but he didn't expect that even a legendary wizard like Gregory would die because of it!
It's not a double-edged sword, it's a self-defeating one!
Fortunately, I have just come into contact with it, and with Viren's ability, I will definitely be able to come up with a solution.
With a long sigh of relief, Ryan finally calmed down. It's no wonder that he would be like this, after all, judging from all the clues now, the only thing that can resist the erosion of magic is his own magic resistance.
But the degree of magical affinity will slowly increase over time, and it is simply impossible for mortals to have enough magical resistance to resist this power, Lester can't, Taylor can't, even if it's a god, not either!
Thinking of this, Ryan's face became gloomy again, and he silently put on his gloves and put these notes in his waist bag.
However, when people are unlucky, they drink cold water and stuff their teeth.
Before Ryan could recover from the blow of the gloomy future, there was a faint sound in his ears, and then it quickly turned into a roar like a wave crashing against the reef, which lasted for a long time!
Outside the room, arm-length cracks suddenly appeared in the otherwise smooth stone wall, and the rock stood up like a blast, revealing pairs of translucent thin wings below.
Apparently, Ryan's magic has awakened a lot of incredible things. I saw that the thin wings vibrated violently at a speed that could not be caught by the naked eye, and the sound of bees spreading their wings continued to echo in this space, and soon turned into thunder!
Cautiously poking his head out of the room, Ryan was stunned by what he saw. I saw a beetle the size of a half-human flying in front of me, like a locust crossing the border, and there was no grass!
Reconnoiter!
Scarab (variant)
Absolute neutrality
Small magical beasts
Health: 11/11
Specialty: Psychic Awareness (Mana)
Difficulty: Effortless
Watching the overwhelming scarab beetle soar from the stone wall, Ryan quickly retracted his head, took a few deep breaths to ease his tension, and didn't care about complaining about the negligence of not using the spell just now, his eyes kept fluttering, obviously looking for a way to get out.
Although a single scarab beetle is only a matter of one or two knives for Ryan now, with such a massive scale, even if he stands still and lets him chop, I'm afraid he will tire himself to death, not to mention that pair of steel pincer-like chelica can tear himself to pieces in an instant!
Moreover, these scarab beetles are much more sensitive to magic than literally, and even such a faint aura as the 0 ring spell can react, let alone be invisible, which completely ruins Ryan's idea of escaping.
Seeing that the scarabs seemed to be tired, they clung to the nearby stone walls and corridors to rest, and as the empty spaces were filled with them, the beetles and Ryan became closer and closer.
You can't just wait to die!
Seeing the retreat path completely blocked made Ryan extremely aggrieved, and the latter gritted his teeth fiercely, and immediately channeled his spiritual power into the invisible phantom.
A black shadow burst out of the room like an arrow, flying low against the suspended corridor, but Ryan miserred, and the illusion created by the silent phantom did not attract the attention of the scarab, but the faint magical aura generated when the spell was activated made the beetles approach his hiding place again.
However, the latter showed a hint of realization in his eyes, and remained motionless. Soon, a scarab beetle slowly crawled into the room, and Ryan held his breath and clearly saw the pale blue lines on its abdomen.
This is, the scarab child implanted with the magic crystal? Aren't they all wiped out? Is it a remnant, or is it someone else's experiment?
Quietly hidden in place, Ryan's mind was constantly running, and he was finally relieved to see the other party swaggering past him.
These experiments are blind!
It seems that magical resistance has not helped them to completely resist the erosion of magic, and as the desire for magic deepens in the offspring, the side effects gradually change their bodies.
Coming to such a conclusion, Ryan finally moved. The sound of the scarab beetle vibrating its wings completely obscured his movements, and in such an environment, it was much safer for a ranger who was proficient in stealth.
Carefully searching for a foothold among the scarabs that almost covered the hanging corridor, Ryan slowly moved towards the platform. However, the moment he stepped onto the platform, before he could breathe, a whisper that seemed to be whispering in his ear suddenly exploded in his mind.
"Quick, come to me!"
Bite!
The circle under his feet suddenly burst into a pale blue light, and a ring at the edge began to quickly gather vast magical power. Ryan, however, didn't have time to marvel at the sudden change, and when he looked sideways, an endless swarm of beetles was pouring towards him.
Flameburst!
No longer hiding, Ryan activated the blazing flames and chanted incantations as fast as he could in his life, and as a scarab beetle nearly crashed into his handsome face, a brilliant, scorching flame unleashed a wild storm around him.
The scarab beetle close to him instantly turned into red-hot black charcoal, and the strong scorching smell made the half-elf couldn't help but wrinkle his nose, but the countless beetles were like an endless army, and under the strong magical aura of the 2-ring spell, the vacancy that had finally appeared was filled in an instant.
Ryan's attempt to make room for the Fireball spell failed, and despair rose in his heart when he saw the beetle's chelica on all sides.
However, Ryan glanced at the teleportation circle that was being activated for unknown reasons, and set his eyes on the attribute panel, the one he loved and hated the super magic specialty.
Magical energy erupts!
"Ahh
The flesh and blood all over his body seemed to be torn apart under the action of the torrent of magic power, and endless magic suddenly appeared in Ryan's body, who instantly felt that his body was like a balloon that was constantly expanding, and at the moment when it was about to explode, the magic power instantly erupted outward from all parts of the body, catharsis!
In the dim space, it was as if a dazzling blue sun was rising, and the endless storm of magic engulfed the scarabs in the blink of an eye, and at the same time swallowed the entire circle under Ryan's feet.
With such a powerful infusion of mana, the magic circle that was originally accumulating power was instantly activated, and as a blue light flashed inconspicuously under this brilliant light, the magic power beyond the limit of tolerance directly tore the platform to pieces.
With a roar, the backlash of the teleportation spell brought an incomparably powerful impact, like a wave, spreading unscrupulously in all directions, slamming into the stone wall.
Boom -
For a moment, large swaths of rubble cracked, and the dust poured down like a waterfall. Above, the crystal dome lost its support as the surrounding stone walls collapsed, collapsing downwards with a deafening roar.
As the dome collapsed, scarabs rose from it like a fountain, and the sky over the old campus was soon covered in black clouds. The black clouds that covered the sky and the sun spread directly towards the rich magic, and the beetles devoured the magic power in it with hunger.
At the same time, huge black shadows gradually appeared in the thinner and thinner fog......
The continuous huge tremors spread throughout the entire Shining Star Peak, countless animals fled in panic, plants kept shaking, large fallen leaves almost paved the ground blue, and even the Morning Star Demon Guide in the Morning Star Tower looked sideways.
Pansted frowned, raised his hand, and suddenly a mist appeared in the air, and a familiar back gradually became clear in his eyes: "Viren, something happened at the old site......
"I know." Interrupting the other party's impatient speech, Viren's eyes flashed inexplicably as he looked into the distance, "Don't worry, those students can't make much waves, I'll deal with it." ā
