102. Puzzle solving
The marble-carved fountain certainly couldn't resist an explosion of this magnitude, but the altar below could, a pale gray film completely blocking out the violent shock wave.
Without the fountain, the altar of the dead underneath was revealed.
In fact, it was a cauldron, the cauldron was fastened to the ground with four thick chains, and a blue nether fire burned under the cauldron, and a pile of-like things was boiling inside the cauldron, and a subtle smell of smoke emanated from the cauldron.
"It's ...... Scourge cauldron? "The Cauldron of the Scourge is an important tool used by the undead to fight wars, and the Cauldron of the Scourge boiled on the battlefield will release a canopy of the undead that obscures the sky and the sun, blocking all sunlight. And under the cover of the Curtain of the Undead, all undead units will be strengthened to a certain extent, and there is a certain chance that the dead mortal race will become undead and get up again.
Although the cauldron in front of him is not as powerful as those cauldron cauldrons on the battlefield, it is enough to affect the weather on a small scale, so it is no wonder that this town always looks gloomy.
Lin Wen tried to shoot a few bullets at the Cauldron of Scourge, but all of them were blocked by a layer of pale gray magic cover, and it seemed that it would not be easy to destroy this altar.
The first thing to deal with is this shield. Lin Wen circled around the altar and found that there were four very inconspicuous grooves on the ground, and after erasing the muddy water on the grooves, Lin Wen could see the pattern formed by the grooves.
Earth, fire, and feng shui, this is obviously the pattern of the four natural elements, but how can a necromancer make natural elements on his altar? Perhaps this is not a direct reference to the four natural elements, but rather to something related to the undead.
Fire, undead, soul, soul fire! Lin Wen's eyes lit up suddenly, and then he took Gora to find a skeleton, broke the skeleton's limbs and dragged it to the side of the altar, and took out the skeleton's soul fire and pressed it on the fire groove.
Rumble! Sure enough, when Lin Wen pressed the dark blue flame in his hand on the groove, the soul flame that was supposed to be extinguished soon actually burst into flames as if gasoline had been poured on it, and the icy blue flame soared up from more than two meters high.
Okay, the fire is solved, so what the hell is the rest of the earth feng shui? Lin Wen stood next to the altar and touched his chin and pondered, the answer should be in the undead, the earth usually refers to the earth element, which represents heaviness, and for the undead, it seems that only bones can have this meaning.
Lin Wen tried to throw the bones in his hand into the groove of the ground system.
Quack! There was a continuous crunching sound, and the bones that had been thrown into the grooves began to explode in size as if they had absorbed the golden knella, and finally piled up into a two-meter-high mountain.
One more was solved, and there are two left.
Wind, the wind represents lightness, so what among the undead is more agile? Lin Wen instantly thought of ghouls and evil ghosts, these two are representatives of the agility system among the undead, but no matter how you look at it, they can't be related to lightness...... That's right! Phantom! The quality of the soul is light and fluttering.
Lin Wen took Gora and began to wander around the town again, most of the town is full of walking corpses, and some ghouls, skeletons and other monsters are killed, and ghosts are very rare.
Finally, Lin Wen found a ghost in a hotel, which was still a pretty little girl from the outside, but her bright red eyes made people shudder a little. This ghost was quite weak, Lin Wen didn't even use a gun, he stabbed it to death with two strokes of the dagger, and after collecting the soul essence, he opened the third groove as he wished.
As for the water, this thing made it difficult for Lin Wen, Lin Wen tried the slime and putrefaction in the undead's body, but it didn't work at all. And no matter how you think about it, you can't think of what is in the body of the undead that can be connected to the water.
At this time, it is necessary to dig out the brain hole to brainstorm, water is also known as the source of life, and where do the undead come from? Apparently from a living animal, and what fluid is there in a living animal that can catch up with life?
There is only one answer - blood.
After washing the survival knife and disinfecting it with holy water, Lin Wen took off his gloves and cut the skin on the back of his hand, and a drop of blood dripped down the shallow wound into the groove representing the water system on the ground, and then a red fountain spurted out of the groove with the sound of rushing water, and the air was suddenly filled with a strong smell of blood.
At the same time, the magic shield that covered the entire altar disappeared.
As soon as the magic shield disappeared, Lin Wen directly fired a grenade, and without the magic shield, this altar was no different from a more ordinary pot, and it was directly blown apart in an instant, and various parts flew everywhere.
Bang! Bang! Two bolts of lightning hit the altar of the undead in a row, although they didn't hit Lin Wen, but Lin Wen still felt numb and crispy on his body. After being struck by lightning, a black-gray magic array appeared in the original position of the altar, and from it stretched out a large fat hand covered with stitches.
Soon a fat abomination came out of the circle, in terms of volume, this abomination is one size smaller than the stitching monster made by Abel Crombi in the Twilight Forest, but in terms of refinement, Abel Crombby's building can be said to be a parallel product from a rural soil workshop, and this one in front of him is a genuine product with exquisite workmanship, complete functions, and even warranty replacement.
Abomination is 4 meters tall, with a burly but not bloated body stitched together by multiple corpses, a meat axe in his left hand and a hammer in his right hand, and a small arm on his shoulder holding a small hook attached to an iron chain. A huge crack opened in the center of the belly, and extremely corrosive pus flowed out of the crack, corroding deep pits in the ground. Through this rift, Lin Wen could even see the internal organs in the body of the abomination.
As soon as the abomination came out, the little hand on the shoulder flicked, and the iron hook hooked Lin Wen's feet accurately, and then pulled it suddenly, directly pulling Lin Wen in front of the abomination, and then the abomination split his head and face were chopped off with a knife.
This is really a fight, unambiguous!
Click! The heavy cleaver cut a deep and long crack in the ground, and Lin Wen dodged the knife with a roll in time, and then got up and cast an escape away from the monster.
Without waiting for Lin Wen to give the order, Gora rushed forward with a low roar, attracting the attention of the abomination and dodging the abomination attack with her agile movement.
Obviously, against this huge monster-like bullet, it can't cause effective damage at all, Lin Wen didn't waste bullets to shoot abomination, and he didn't even hit a grenade. Instead, he directed Gora to attract all of Abomination's attention as he slowly approached Abomination, holding a waterproof package the size of half a person in Lin Wen's hand.
This is all the strong gunpowder left after replacing the doomsday powder, Lin Wen is going to use this thing to set off a big pyrotechnic today, and see how hard this abomination body is!
