Chapter 18: Powerful Ice Picks
Immediately after the howl, a bright silver light flashed out of the cavern.
The speed of the light was so fast that no one could see what it was. Seeing the bright light shooting straight towards him, Charles was shocked in his heart, and subconsciously raised his shield in front of him.
"Boom"
Then, Charles felt a sharp pain spread from his left arm to his entire body. Half of his body quickly lost consciousness.
The wind whistled in my ears.
The view is receding.
Charles's consciousness was slightly blurred, and the things in his field of vision were ghosted. This is a symptom of a concussion. It was as if he had been swept away by a hurricane more than a dozen meters away.
Tumbling on the ground, the screams of several teammates were also muffled.
"Nima, you won't hang up like this, will you?" Xia Erqiang bit the tip of his tongue, and his dilated pupils condensed slightly. He glanced at the data records of the retina.
"Attacked by the 'Gnoll Chieftain''s [Throwing Axe Burst Attack]."
"You lose 30 health."
"NDE, please note!"
I'll rub it!
Lie down and get shot!
Charles' heavy head flashed these two expletives. Now only foul mouths can vent his gloomy mood.
A single skill attack ate 30 of his health, and if it weren't for the 'Secondary Life Talisman' equipped, he would have been resurrected in Susar's Temple of Knowledge by now.
Thankfully, the wooden emblem was still in Charles's hand.
Without hesitation, Charles first converted a two-ring magic that had been memorized in the spell slot into a 'healing medium injury' magic technique, and then gritted his teeth and recited the spell.
"Activated [Healing Moderate Injuries] successfully."
"In a dying state, the magic effect is halved, and your health is restored to 10 points."
A faint golden glow emanated from the emblem, enveloping Charles who was lying on the ground. The pain between the chest and abdomen receded like a tide, but the few broken ribs were still aching.
Charles sat up and continued to use the priest's class ability [Spell Transformation], so that an attack spell on the spell slot became a 'Healing Medium Injury' spell.
Throw the second two-ring magic on yourself.
The amount of health has risen again.
Charles twisted around and found that the broken ribs in his left chest had been healed by the power of the gods. The heaviness of my head dissipated instantly. He stood upright from the ground with a carp hit.
Squinted at the remains of the shield that was still on his left arm. For a moment, Charles felt the urge to scold his mother.
It wasn't tabula rasa, it was a piece of green equipment he had bought at the noble blacksmith shop in Susar after working hard in the alchemy laboratory for many days.
He even spent an extra 50 gold coins to have the blacksmith add steel spikes to the round shield.
A shield that was worth as much as blue equipment in Charles' eyes exploded because of a skill attack. Charles really wanted to scold his mother.
The game is too real, and here are the shortcomings. Don't ask what the hell durability is. Charles was already imagining maliciously that one day a certain player provoked the aboriginal master who mastered the [Splitting Technique], and the terrible scene after the magic props in his body exploded.
Several teammates jumped up on the spot when they saw that Charles was like being possessed by Brother Chun, and they all breathed a big sigh of relief.
Zhang Ze smiled and waved the wooden staff in his hand, and said with a grin:
"Hey, Charles, look at the shape of my mouth and chant ...... with me"
"God Daddy covers me to fight!"
Everyone else couldn't help but laugh. Such a serious and thrilling battle, amused by this guy, the haze in my heart suddenly faded a lot.
"Dead openβ"
Charles glared fiercely at his nemesis.
Now he was depressed and needed to vent, so at this time, the Gnoll Chieftain who came out of the cave and appeared became the best target.
"[Gnoll Chieftain] (Lord), Level 6, Health: 100/100, The Level of the Wanderer's 'Scouting' skill is too low, and other information cannot be obtained."
The fingertip quicksand shared the information at the right time.
Seeing this information, Charles instantly shrank.
Just kidding, ask him to fight against the level 6 lord monster with a small body priest, that is really thinking that his gold coins will not be spent, and he can be resurrected infinitely in the temple.
"Mengmeng, don't rush to use the scroll, wait for all the monsters to come out!"
Charles didn't know if it was in a hurry, or deliberately, and directly simplified the ID of the sorcerer's 'haunting dreams' to the affectionate title of Mengmeng.
The god of war Kui Ye and Yu Yin didn't say anything, and they felt normal.
But Zhang Ze and the quicksand at his fingertips looked at him with surprised eyes at the same time. The female wanderer's cold eyes had a complicated look. And when Zhang Ze saw the sorcerer's silent reaction to this title, he couldn't help but cover his forehead, and muttered, "Another ignorant girl is about to fall......"
The gnoll chief stood in front of the cave, his body eight feet tall, covered in a thick layer of metal armor, and his helmet from the neck up, revealing only a pair of cold eyes.
"Humans, this is my clan's territory!"
"Intruder, must die!"
It swore an oath in the smooth lingua franca of the continent. Behind him, the gnoll warriors and gnolls who were standing densely behind him raised their heads and screamed in response.
"You can shut up."
Charles snapped his fingers, and all five of them, except for the sorcerer in charge of unlocking the scroll, strode back.
"Huh?"
The gnolls with low IQ looked a little dumbfounded.
But the gnoll chieftain fixed his gaze on the golden scroll in the sorcerer's hand, and the wolf eyes that appeared under the helmet were full of fear, "The scroll, it's a magic scroll, stop her!" β
The Gnoll warrior reacted the fastest, and his strong hind legs kicked through the mountain gravel and flew over.
But it's just a death throe.
'Haunting Dreams' tone ethereally recited a few simple activation spells, and the arcane words on the magic scroll in his hand burst out with strong energy.
A cold air centered on her palm and spread outward, instantly covering an extremely cold fan-shaped area.
This is a five-ring spell of the Plastic Energy system, Ice Pick.
And it also comes with a "powerful" super magic spell, and the power that is truly cast is not weaker than any six-ring large-scale spell.
The two gnoll warriors who jumped in the air first turned into transparent ice sculptures and fell to the ground, and the chain armor on their bodies was shattered into pieces along with their flesh and blood.
Then it's time for the Gnoll Chieftain.
The level 6 lord monster, which is invincible in the eyes of players, has not even had a chance to turn around and escape in the face of a terrifying five-ring spell, and has also become an ice sculpture.
The Charles retreated far away, but they still felt a chill running through their limbs.
Zhang Ze sneezed and stared around the large ice sculpture in front of the cave in a daze, and at this moment he really wondered if he was participating in the midwinter celebration in a certain city of Cormier.
Wonderful kill hints fill everyone's stat bar.
The experience progress bar climbs to 100% at once.
Zhang Ze was awakened by the escalation sound of his teammates' "ding". He glanced at the list of team avatars and froze. Except for him, everyone else was promoted to the fourth level in seconds. Zhang Ze hurriedly exhaled out the attribute bar, and after clicking on the glowing upgrade option, the heavenly upgrade sound made him smile crookedly.
"Cool! Sour! β
Charles doesn't have obsessive-compulsive disorder, so naturally he doesn't count how many gnolls have been killed by the 'haunting' magic scroll.
It's all here. After clearing the field outside the cave and collecting the loot, the team made their way into the cave.
There are also gnolls and cubs and women and children in the cave. The six of them are all veterans of the game, and of course they know that in the face of aliens, especially such evil creatures, there must not be a trace of pity.
Otherwise, with hatred, these things will be even more ferocious in their revenge against the aborigines.
β¦β¦
On the other side, the Gnoll Pass.
"Do you hear that?"
"There seems to be a wolf howling behind the pass, did I hear me right?"
The two makeshift teams on standby in front of the pass suddenly broke out in a commotion.
"With the Charles, they succeeded."
The elven druid summons his animal companions hovering in the sky, and the falcon tells him that there has been infighting among the gnolls in the pass. One of the Gnoll Watchers insisted on returning the favor, while another Gnoll Warden believed that the cave was as safe as Mount Tai if the cave had a leader.
"The gnolls are arguing, I think we can attack." The elf druid smiled and said to the dragon rock next to him.
"Good!"
The Paladin pulled out his two-handed greatsword stuck in the ground, walked to the pass himself, and unleashed a group aura ability, [Aura of Courage], on all the players around him.
"Aura of Courage (Supernatural Ability): From level 3 onwards, the Paladin is immune to fear. Whether caused by magic or other factors. Allies within 10 feet of him are exempt from the test when fighting fear has a +4 morale bonus.
This ability works when a Paladin is conscious, but will lose effect when he is unconscious or dead. β
"Rushβ"
After the aura was added, there was no need to use too many words, just a concise attack command, and 60 players followed Long Yan and launched a final attack on the pass.
The gnoll guards at either end of the first rat were quickly defeated.
Two wounded Gnoll Wardens led the remnants back to the cave, but the ice sculptures in front of the cave collapsed completely.
The pursuers were able to wipe out the remnants of the Gnolls with minimal casualties.
"Regional Team Mission [Gnoll Pass] has been completed."
"Players who participate in the battle will receive distributed rewards according to the personal contribution calculated by the system."
The text messages that appear on the retina cause the players in the area to fall into a jubilant atmosphere. Some people are boasting about their bravery, others are showing off their rewards, and there are laughs and chatters everywhere.
Not far from the cave in the forest.
The elven druid gave Charles a big hug and said with a smile: "Oh, my dear friend, you are the heroes of this mission, and you deserve it. β
Charles pushed him away, pointed to the haunting dream, and said, "You should thank this female tyrant for sponsoring a magic scroll worth 2,000 gold coins for this mission." β
"Oh?"
Yifeng and Long Yan looked at each other in surprise, and then each bent down to show their respect.
