Chapter 560: Flame Behemoth (1)
He turned and looked at the tightly closed metal gate behind him, his brow furrowed again, and Artoria was still trying to make an effort in front of the door, but both of them were at a loss, and there was nothing they could do about it.
02020202 "Could this be the real treasure room, which requires a specific key to open?" Artoria crouched down, he took off his gloves and fumbled carefully for the door, "It says danger, just to keep us out of trouble...... Strangely, there's not even a keyhole on it. ”
02020202 "Whether your speculation is true or not, we'll have to find a way to open it first." Asher continued pacing back and forth, muttering.
02020202 he turned around for a while, and he couldn't think of any clue, so he had to go back to the door again, carefully looking at every minute corner of the door, last time in the Death Mine, Asher used a stone slab to open the last secret room door, but this door does not have a groove that can be embedded into the stone slab, not even a keyhole.
02020202 "It's better to wait for Vivien to come over and we'll let him try it again." Artoria let out a dejected breath and said with some discouragement, "We haven't gotten anything that might have anything to do with this gate since we came here, and we don't even know what's behind it, so there's no way to keep thinking about it." ”
02020202 Asher bowed his head and was silent, he stretched out his right hand and leaned against the door, his fingertips tapping lightly against the metal lines.
02020202" is another way. ”
02020202 Yashu raised his head, his eyes flickering slightly.
02020202 It's just going to be a little dangerous," Asher put the staff back in his hand and waved his teammates back away, "You stand back, I'll force it open with some offensive spells." ”
02020202 "Are you really going to do that?" Artoria was stunned. He smiled wryly and stepped back, "I think it's more like a bad idea that Ivrea can come up with, and to be honest, it's not too cautious. ”
02020202 "But that's all we can do." Asher said with a shrug.
02020202 mild spells such as lockpicking can't break the locks, traps, or seals on this door, then Asher will have to use some brutal means, and Asher has found out that this metal is just ordinary pure gold, and if there is no other special protection on the door, Asher can easily destroy it.
02020202 Magic Threading plus Dissociation is more effective than any lockpicking.
02020202 Asher raised his staff. The luster of the spell slowly condensed on the tip of the staff, and just as he swung the staff and was about to cast a spell, Ashur suddenly stopped moving, and a moment later, he lifted the magic.
02020202 "You mentioned Ivrea, and I realized that we might have better means. Asher returned to his staff, took a deep breath, and began to shield himself with a spell. Protects against flame enchantments, mage armor, and Arcane armor.
02020202 Artoria, who had retreated to the corner, watched in astonishment as Ashur blessed himself with ** layers of armor layer by layer, knowing that with Ashur's spell strength, the combined shield value of these shields was probably millions. And Asher hasn't stopped, and he's constantly blessing himself with protective spells until he reaches the upper limit of twelve.
02020202 "You seem to be going to hit the gate with a nuclear bomb yourself." Artoria sighed.
02020202" almost. Asher smiled faintly, then cautiously reached out his hand. Aiming at the distant gate, a dazzling light flashed in the palm of his hand, and a scorching flame roared up. An extremely fiery red color flashed from Ashur's hand, and Ashur threw it out in the next instant.
02020202 "Boom! ”
02020202 surging heat wave instantly swept through the entire room, causing the temperature around him to rise rapidly, Artoria was caught off guard, almost being sprayed in the eyes by the actual flames, and he hurriedly protected his face.
02020202 "What the hell is this, aren't you an arcane mage?" ”
02020202"It's not a fire spell, it's a prop. Asher watched as the phoenix god's feathers slid down in mid-air and approached the thick metal gate, smacking his tongue and looking down at the mana shield in his hand.
02020202 summoned it, it was a very dangerous thing, the damage of this thing was too alarming, and it was uncontrollable, Asher had to be very cautious, but it was precisely because of its unrivaled destructive power that he was able to complete this task, as long as the gate was forcibly melted, any mechanism would be burned in an instant.
02020202 this is a lot better than the arcane magic that has more impact than it has and is slightly less destructive.
02020202 phoenix god's feathers did not disappoint Ashur, before it could touch the gate, Ashur could see the metal on the pure gold gate clearly twisted, with a soft snort, the feather path directly touched the gate, and suddenly all the metal began to disintegrate like ice and snow melting, and a large hole was burned in a short time.
02020202 "Oh my God, what are you?" Artoria was stunned in the back, "That's pure gold, it's completely burned out, and there is not even a bit of scum left." ”
02020202 Yashu's eyes followed the feathers of the phoenix god all the way, and he watched with shame as it burned a hole in the gate, and fell downward, and after falling to the ground, it scorched the ground and melted into a large pit almost without hindrance, burrowing deep into the earth.
02020202 Ashur hurriedly rushed forward, scooped it up with one hand, and stuffed it into his backpack.
02020202 "Let's go in." Asher wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and bent down to take the lead in the big hole in the door.
02020202 Ashur once again had a new insight into the feathers of the Phoenix God, its strength surpassed any prop-type item that Ashur had ever seen, even he had never heard of a few such things, if Ashur could use it like an arm, I believe it would be more powerful than any spell, but unfortunately it not only hurt others but also hurt himself.
02020202 after he went back this time, he planned to find a special time to study if there was any way to make Asher control it remotely.
02020202 Artoria followed Asher into the gate, and after getting inside, Ashur looked up, it was not a secret room or a warehouse, as he had thought, but a narrow passage behind the door.
02020202 Ashur and Artoria glanced at each other, the warrior nodded, shouldered the tower shield, and slowly walked forward with the greatsword in hand, Ashur raised his staff and followed closely behind.
02020202 "Roar! ”
02020202 suddenly. A violent roar was like a flat-bottomed thunderbolt, exploding throughout the passage, and through the reflection of the wall, it became extremely deafening, and both Asher and Artoria were shocked, and subconsciously took a few steps back, with a look of shock in their eyes.
02020202 "How can there be monsters here?" Artoria clenched her greatsword and turned back to Asher in shock.
02020202 "I used the detection spell just now, and I didn't detect any monsters, so let's go and see." Asher calmed himself. Said in a deep voice.
02020202 the two of them walked forward more carefully, the passage was not long, and after going around a corner, another gate appeared in front of them, and Ashur took a look at it, stepped forward, and once again burned the gate with the feathers of the Phoenix God.
02020202 this time Artoria was the first to enter the gate, and Asher followed, after entering the gate. Asher straightened up, directly startled by the sight in front of him.
02020202 in front of the two of them was a huge hall, which was extremely empty. Only in the center stands a large statue of a human male wearing tight leather armor and a black cape, covering his face with a mask. Typical of the rogue's professional attire, the statue is very delicately made, as if it were a long time ago.
02020202 "Edwin. Statue of Van Cleef. How could there be anything deep underground? Asher turned his head and looked around, "Where did the monster cry we heard just come from?" ”
02020202 Artoria patted Asher and pointed to the left side of the room.
02020202 Ashur followed his gaze and his eyes widened suddenly.
02020202 on the left side of this hall, in an inconspicuous corner, there was a black ball huddled there, and Asher didn't pay attention to it at first, until it shook a few times under his gaze, and Asher suddenly realized that it seemed to be a living thing.
02020202 creature crouching in the corner seemed to notice that someone was looking at it, and raised its head to look at Asher and Artoria, this thing had fluff all over its body, and it couldn't see the limbs, if you didn't count its dirty dirt, it was furry and cute, and its purple-black eyes revealed a little human confusion.
02020202" It still has eyes. Artoria was stunned, "It's very intelligent." ”
02020202 "That roar couldn't have been from it." Asher said with a wry smile. I look a bit like a fetus of Warcraft. ”
02020202 the deafening roar outside the door just now was really terrifying, and Yashu's first reaction was that there was an extremely fierce, bloodthirsty and violent monster inside, at least it had to be epic or above, but when he walked in and took a look, he found that there was actually this living creature here, which was completely inconsistent with the roar just now.
02020202 "Just look at it." Artoria waved her hand, then tentatively walked over to him.
02020202 the ball of fur cowered in a corner, and from time to time it made a faint cry, as if it were harmless to humans and animals, but when Artoria tried to take a step and try to get close to it, it immediately stood up vigilantly, raised its hair, and stared viciously at the uninvited guest in front of it.
02020202 Ashur was standing behind, and he didn't care about it originally, but in the next second, his eyes suddenly widened, and Ashur clearly saw a layer of rich red light and shadow appearing on its body, and he immediately wanted to speak out to stop Artoria-
02020202 large strands of crimson light poured out of the black hairball like blood, quickly condensing into a dazzling river of light on its surface, and then they transformed into a ferocious illusory monster, a huge rhinoceros with horns on its head, and it stared at Artoria with angry eyes and let out a low, threatening roar.
02020202 Artoria was startled, subconsciously raised his sword, and took a few steps back nervously.
02020202 the glowing rhinoceros didn't attack or charge, it hovered above the black furball, glaring at Artoria, and the black hairball stood on end with its hair, as if trying to maintain something.
02020202 "This is the red-horned giant rhino, they are at least epic monsters of ancient bloodline, and now this is an illusion or a state type spell of substance?" If that's true, then I'm afraid I'm going to have to be busy. Artoria asked nervously as she retreated all the way to Asher's side, holding her sword in vigilance.
02020202 he had seen the Beast Soul Shaman Prophet use similar skills, after being possessed by the beast souls of those fierce beasts, his attribute power increased wildly, and he also gained many tricky abilities, Artoria had never directly fought against the Beast Soul Shaman Prophet, but he knew how powerful this kind of skill was.
02020202" is mostly an illusion, but I'm not sure...... Wait, I remember what this thing is. Asher said with a frown, and then a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind.
02020202 "Hurry up, grab it!" Don't let it run! ”
02020202 Yashu shouted with bright eyes, and then immediately rushed forward with his staff in his hand, and when he was halfway there, a flashing spell appeared directly beside the black furball, ignoring all the red light, and grabbed it directly-
02020202 the black furball was startled, and the red light collapsed in an instant, it shrank back, and suddenly dissolved into the darkness in the corner of the wall like a ball of black ink, and Ashur grabbed the air, and could only watch it disappear, he straightened up and continued to look at the other corners of the room.
02020202 only a second later, the black furball flashed out of thin air in another corner, and continued to curl up there, watching the two of them vigilantly and anxiously.
02020202 "Did you bring a spell item for catching pets?" Asher turned to Artoria and asked.
02020202 "Catching a pet? No, I don't carry this with me. Artoria shook her head, "What, you want to tame it?" Don't you already have the Sea Lord Barak, this thing can be compared to a demigod-level monster? ”
02020202 "I have it, but you and Vivien don't yet." Asher smiled and said, "This is also our chance, this pit is full of treasures, this thing can be worth a whole big treasure, go grab it!" ”
02020202 Artoria was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the black furball's expression changed, Ashur's statement about its value was too exaggerated, and having been a brother and teammate with Ashur for so long, Artoria knew Ashur very well this person.
02020202 he doesn't usually exaggerate to describe something, so ......
02020202 he immediately unloaded the tower shield and greatsword, threw it aside, and rushed towards the black hairball that was cowering in the corner, and Asher immediately ran in the other direction, trying to contain it.
02020202 "What kind of monster is it that would make you have such a high rating." Artoria asked, rushing over at great speed.
02020202 it's a pity that this time he still pounced, and the hairball turned into a black shadow again and burrowed into the darkness.
02020202" is still related to thieves and shadows, but it doesn't benefit only thieves like the Shadow Armor. Asher explained sharply as he rushed to the next place where it appeared.
02020202 "With it, you'll be able to appear anywhere you want to go in no time."
"Oh my God, why can't I catch it all the time?"
02020202 Asher and Artoria tried for nearly half an hour, but they didn't succeed in catching the black furball, and every time they got closer, it immediately melted into the darkness in the corner, and then appeared in another corner not far away, continuing to stare at the two of them vigilantly.
02020202 at first, Asher tried to predict where it would appear, and then went over in advance to prepare for the arrest, but unfortunately this hall was too big, Asher and Artoria were only two people, and they couldn't take care of all the places at all, the only thing to be thankful for was that it only moved in this room and didn't leave.
After many futile attempts for 02020202, the black furball seemed to find that Ashur and the two of them were helpless against it, and gradually relaxed its vigilance, squatting in the darkness in the corner of the wall, bouncing from time to time, showing extremely humane sneering eyes to Ashur, and it seemed that it didn't care about the threat of the two at all.
02020202"Doesn't it have a cooldown when it teleports?" Artoria gasped and sat down with his hands on the wall, "We're working in vain, we'll never catch it, its movement skills are too strong, what kind of monster is this." ”
02020202 Ashur also ran decently, panting and sitting down next to Artoria, he stared at the black furball in the opposite corner, this little thing saw that Ashur and the two finally gave up, and jumped and jumped in place with excitement, and then instantly appeared in the darkness in another corner.
02020202 as if it was showing off its power, it kept teleporting around the hall, even flashing in front of the two of them, and then disappearing in the blink of an eye.
02020202 Ashur sat on the floor depressedly, helpless.
02020202 "Can't you use spells to attack or control it from a distance?" As she watched the little thing jump around, Artoria said helplessly.
02020202" doesn't make sense. Ashur shook his head, then raised his hand, and the dazzling blue light condensed in Ashur's hand, and the ground shook with a bang, and a huge arcane impact shot out at an extremely fast speed!
02020202 whistling blue light swept through the air at breakneck speed. Straight to the black furball in the corner of the wall, it suddenly let out a little rapid scream, like a pinball suddenly jumped from the spot, a clearly visible black shadow as it jumped, extending under its body-
02020202 Ashur's arcane impact instantly hit the black shadow curtain, and then disappeared like a stone in the sea, without a single splash.
02020202 Artoria shook her head in despair.
02020202 in his opinion, this black furball has not yet shown its attack power, but his life-saving ability is already invincible, and he wants to catch it. It's a very difficult thing to do.
02020202 it has a near-cooldown, or indeed a non-cooldowned displacement skill, which can immediately escape from dangerous locations, and any threat of melee attacks can be avoided, and it has this skill that can absorb spells, which means that long-range magic strikes will not work, and even Ashur has just cast a spatial isolation enchantment, which was jumped away by it.
02020202 although it itself does not have a particularly strong defense, others cannot catch it.
02020202 "Do you know what kind of monster this is?" Tell me, at least I can tell what made me so bad. Artoria looked up at the ceiling and said with a wry smile.
02020202 him an epic warrior and Asher an epic mage. Both of them are god-level masters who can conquer a city alone, but in an underground secret room in this bottomless pit, they were pitted by a small and delicate black hairball, and they didn't even catch a single hair from beginning to end.
02020202 Asher was silent for a moment and said, "It's not a living thing. ”
02020202 "Not a creature?" ”
02020202"It is now in the form of a living being. But it's not a monster or anything, it's a ...... skills to catch it as a pet words. It doesn't have combat power on its own and can only give you some support skills. ”
02020202 "Pure assistance pets? Artoria asked curiously.
02020202 in Kadolin, pure support pets are the least popular among adventurers, some of the stronger of these pets are equivalent to carrying a miniature version of the support professional adventurer with them, providing health, status, protection, etc., anytime and anywhere, while the weaker ones may be similar to the effect of a skill.
