Chapter 256: Under the Shadows
Flames and lightning suddenly appeared after the little man and Dilri had leaped over the towerβa pillar of flame and a pillar of blue lightning that were ten yards long, flew over the tower under the spit of the two-headed lizard, and disappeared into the distance above their heads, as fast as the speed of the two-man flight.
Evidence that the two-headed lizard is considered a distant relative of the dragon, or has a trace of dragon blood, is this breath attack, and it is this breath attack that Dery fears; Not only is it powerful, but it's also fast, especially when you have two heads, and the cooperation between them is enough to make anyone feel a headache.
Luckily, they have two towers that are thick enough to withstand such an attack, the structure of pure stone, and the restraint of lightning and flame has reached a considerable degree, although damage is inevitable, but compared to the speed of recovery, it is still quite a distance; After all, apart from the big guys, there are quite a few rock control abilities in the witcher's team.
The attack of the two-headed lizard continues, the only thing to be thankful for is that the restrictions of the opposite terrain make it impossible for these two-headed lizards to complete a salvo, and can only start attacking in two or three side by side, although such a distance does not have much effect on weakening the power of the attack, but it is quite useful for the witcher's counterattack - fighting back under a dense fire net, and fighting back under a fire net with layers and gaps, as long as a person with a normal brain can understand how to choose.
Call!
Ted, who was crouching in the ring wall, looked at the pillar of flames flashing overhead, and immediately rolled over. Emerges from the other end of the ring wall. Two grenades immediately crossed the distance between the two sides. Exploded on top of the two-headed lizard's head.
Rumble! Rumble!
Two flames exploded, shooting in all directions, bringing up sparks on the scales of the two-headed lizard, and only a small part of them were able to break through the scales' defenses and deal effective damage; However, such an injury the size of an adult's fingertip is really not a concern for a two-headed lizard that is a full twenty feet in size.
The explosion of the grenade is like this. The effect of the bullet can be imagined, except for some special bullets, other bullets are useless at all, at most they bring up a spark.
"I finally understand why a two-headed lizard would be considered a distant relative of a dragon, and this kind of defense is really no different from a dragon!" Ted, who was lying behind the women's wall, couldn't help but pout the corners of his lips as he looked at the damage caused to the two-headed lizard by the grenade he thrown.
"If Ye Qi hears such words, he will think that you are deliberately mocking him!"
The little man who had just come back from the other side looked at Ted with a teasing expression, and our Mr. Behemoth. put on a solemn appearance and said very seriously: "Ye Qi won't be so unclear about right and wrong!" β
Face the joke. And Ted, who showed a serious appearance, the little man couldn't help but be stunned; At this time, Mr. Giant Beast added again: "Your expression is what Ye wants to see!" β
"You're kidding me?"
The little man reacted immediately, and immediately glared; However, soon he narrowed his eyes slightly again - the group of people who were familiar with Ye Qi knew very well that this habit of squinting was originally Ye Qi's own actions, representing thinking or annoyance, and then gradually became a habitual action of the group, especially the small people, who often sat there with their eyes squinted, not knowing what Lu Dao was thinking.
At this moment, Ted didn't want to know what the little man wanted at all, after all, Ye Qi and his party were the most difficult among the other party, and he didn't want to be blackmailed by the other party as compensation; And at this time, the black fog in the distance suddenly thundered-
"Hey, there's movement in Ye Qi!"
Ted diverted the attention of the little man; But then there was a real worry: "There won't be any problems...... Hawkeye, what's wrong with Ye Qi? β
"Lord Shak's Dragon is fine, he seems to be touching the edge of this black mist!"
Hawkeye, who had been subconsciously observing the situation in the black mist, immediately shouted loudly, and at the same time, a burst of fire erupted from the front end of the rifle in his hand - the front end of the two-headed lizard on the opposite side of the west immediately burst out of the eye.
Immediately, the people around him raised their right hands, gave a thumbs up, and after gesturing to Hawkeye, they bowed their heads suddenly; The blind two-headed lizard began to spew flames and lightning frantically towards this place, and it was clear that the two-headed lizard group was a very united race, and basically all turned their heads in the next moment and began to attack here.
"What a troublesome two-headed lizard!"
The little man, who had just wanted to take a closer look, had to retract his body and muttered in his mouth.
β¦β¦
In the negative electrode realm, in the black mist, Ye Qi stood on the edge of this black mist, feeling the slightest pain from his fingertips, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows-
Is this what is called a limit?
The damage is not very strong, but it has a very strong resistance force!
Unable to observe with both eyes, Ye Qi can only use his senses to probe his fingertips, fortunately, this is not a difficult task for Ye Qi, who has reached [20] in perception, and it is even very simple; After about a second, the pain was gone, and if he could see it, Ye Qi could be sure that his fingers had returned to their original shapes.
It should rely on the rejection of negative energy to the positive energy itself, and attack and block!
Standing quietly in front of the edge of this black mist, before the arrival of the next wave of dark creatures counted in the black mist, Ye Qi easily came to such a conclusion - after all, what the lich said before was already very clear, and with some speculation, it was not difficult to get such a conclusion.
And in order to confirm this conclusion, Ye Qi's mind moved, and immediately a shadow warrior flew towards the edge of this black mist - for the shadow warrior who was already close to the three thousand mark at this moment, it was undoubtedly the best choice at this time; Although the number of shadow servants has also reached three hundred at this time, compared to the nearly three thousand shadow warriors, it is still a rare existence.
Although the Shadow Minions and Shadow Samurai are 1:10 in total numbers at the moment. But in fact, if you count it seriously. If you put aside the number of the original shadow minions. The true contrast should be around 1:23; After all, if the battle in Xiaotu City was counted, Ye Qi already had two hundred and fifteen shadow minions, and the remaining eighty-five shadow minions were the harvest this time.
And this kind of harvest is completely yours because the opponent has improved the quality of the dark creatures that entered the black fog in the subsequent battle, otherwise 1:30 or 1:40 or even more values can appear; And Ye Qi had to thank the leader of the lich's mouth, so that he could roughly understand the way in which the shadow servant was quickly born - the shadow minion. According to Ye Qi's guess, it should have evolved from the Shadow Warrior who had been absorbing negative energy all the time; Of course, this process of absorption is very long, almost far exceeding the lifespan of ordinary people, unless it encounters special terrain or items, it can quickly give birth to shadow minions.
For example, the fragment of the Key of Doom in his hand before.
And now, there is one more - the negative energy of the dark creatures themselves, and perhaps the souls that may exist.
Humans in the Dark World generally believe that dark creatures are soulless. Ye Qi is not proficient in the way of the soul, and he cannot make speculations; And the reason for such speculation. It's all because of the wails that the dark creatures that have been sucked up after they die, especially when the Shadow Warrior evolves into a Shadow Minion, which is almost audible.
[Shadow Knight: After the complete fusion of thirty shadow minions, the loyal guard born has considerable wisdom, has a certain resistance to positive energy, can fight on its own, and can also command a large number of shadow warriors and shadow minions; Skills: Attachment, Secondary Shadow Shuttle, Shadow Thorn, Shadow Guard, Shadow Gathering. γ
[Attachment: Can be fused into the shadow of the contract owner]
[Secondary Shadow Shuttle: The world that wraps itself in the shadow of the shuttle; Effect: You can use any shadow within 2 kilometers of the initial range for 1 minute. γ
[Shadow Spike: After fusing into the contract owner or the surrounding shadows, you can command it to release 3D20 shadow spikes full of negative energy to attack the enemy; With puncture and contamination effects (after being damaged, the mix is quickly attacked by negative energy); The higher the number of roots, the less powerful the shadow spikes be; 3 times/day; Every time the moon rises, the number of uses begins to fully recover. γ
[Guardian of Shadows: After merging into the contract owner or the surrounding shadows, it can resist a fatal blow for the master at a critical moment; After resisting, the Shadow Knight completely disappears (irreversible effect, cannot be attached). γ
[Gathering of Shadows: When there are shadow creatures outside the contract, you can summon and order shadow creatures that are not higher than your own level within a radius of ten kilometers; 1 time/5 days. γ
This is a system prompt that appears after the shadow minions have reached three hundred.
It can be seen that the Shadow Knight is more than a little stronger than the shadow minion, except for the skill of [Attachment], the rest of the skills are extremely effective skills, [Shadow Thorn] is undoubtedly an upgraded version of [Shadow Thorn], with the effect of piercing and pollution, so that the existence except for dark creatures will be in danger, and [Secondary Shadow Shuttle] is a weakened version of [Shadow Shuttle], if you use it with him, you can definitely catch the enemy off guard.
As for [Guardian of Shadows] and [Gathering of Shadows], the former is a life-saving skill, which is naturally pleasing to Ye Qi and the more the merrier, while the latter is also not to be underestimated; Ye Qi even guessed that the reason why the Shadow Knight carried the word 'knight' was entirely because of this skill.
Just like those knights in the age of knights, they gathered their attendants and entourages and rushed to the battlefield.
However, it is obvious that in the material world, this ability is limited - shadow creatures, except for the shadow warriors who have been refined by wizards, are basically difficult to see on Lolante, maybe there are some in some places, but definitely not too much, compared to the ten kilometers of the convocation range, it is naturally a drop in the bucket.
Despite this, Ye Qi still thought for a moment, and chose to completely fuse thirty shadow minions to create a shadow knight, after all, it was a very gratifying choice to have an extra guard to withstand a fatal blow on such a battlefield.
The Shadow Knight, who is clearer and taller than the Shadow Minions, is much more present than the shadow warrior who wanders like a ghost; The black armor, covered with a trench coat that mops the floor, wraps around the whole body, if it weren't for the slightest ripple of black shadows that ripple out like gas from time to time, he would be a black knight entirely.
And when the Shadow Knight first appeared, he was only slightly stunned for a moment, and then immediately took action, standing behind Ye Qi silently, Ye Qi was naturally overjoyed by the Shadow Knight's wise move, and then quickly contacted the Shadow Knight through the strength of the contract, and then, the clear answer he got made Ye Qi nod with satisfaction.
The way a normal person answers is enough to satisfy anyone.
Moreover, just now, when Ye Qi touched the edge of the black mist, the Shadow Knight also issued a warning and was willing to go himself.
Surrounded by a group of loyal knights, is this what the Lord of Shadows means?
In the face of such warnings and dissuasion, Ye Qi couldn't help but think; However, he won't let the only Shadow Knight take the risk - he still has confidence in this negative pole realm; And it turned out that Ye Qi was not wrong, although he felt the pain of an electric shock.
Kill the dark creatures that have entered the black mist!
A group of dark creatures in the [Blind Fighting Perception] arrived again as promised, but this time, Ye Qi did not take matters into his own hands and gave an order directly to the Shadow Knight.
And he 'stared' at the shadow warrior who had touched the edge of the black mist.
The Shadow Knight, who has quite a lot of wisdom, will naturally not disappoint Ye Qi, it seems to be a knight born for war, and the shadow servants and shadow warriors are commanded like an arm's finger, those dark creatures who have just entered the black mist and began to get excited under the rich negative energy, just a few minutes later, there is no sound.
Then, the Shadow Knight returned to Ye Qi's back again, and the shadow minions and shadow warriors did not fly chaotically again, just like an army, standing solemnly, only two shadow warriors attached to the corpses of those dark creatures and began to suck; After that, two new Shadow Servants were born.
Seeing this scene, Ye Qi was stunned, and even the shadow warrior who went to explore the path returned to his side unharmed, unable to attract his attention.
