115. Siege and killing
The main material plane, the Black Sea, Leonhard passed through the heavily guarded corridor and entered the North Palace, and the situation of Talos made him very worried.
As a Grand Knight, he hadn't experienced this level of apprehension for a long time, and the last time Talos was invited to the City of Fortune when he happened to encounter the Illuminati raiding the Church of Fortune, and was shocked to learn that they were using meteors, meteor bursts, and earthquakes.
The last time was when Talos suddenly ate in an abnormal state, and the reason for the second time was his son, who was attacked by two mermaid high-level mages in Strasbourg, causing the meditation space to shatter.
Unfortunately, bad luck befell poor Talos once again. Although Sandra had promised him twice that what Talos was currently experiencing was not a curse, nor any spell attack, nor was it a strange illness, so that he should not worry too much, to be honest, what had happened to Talos was really a bit weird.
Almost every night, Talos would inexplicably suffer from wounds in his chest, waist and abdomen, arms, and tails, of varying sizes and shades.
In the worst case, his son almost lost half of his tail, and even Bai Sensen's tailbone was exposed, and the wound appeared out of thin air, with unknown bite marks, as if it came from some kind of ferocious carnivorous fish.
Today is the seventh day, and strange things are happening again.
Under Leonhard's gaze, a three-inch-long wound appeared on Talos' left middle arm, from which red blood flowed.
Boom –
The viscous liquid in the True Worm Repair Pod swelled and made a few soft sounds, carrying a layer of misty light, quickly repairing the wound.
That's the healing power that comes with the True Worm Repair Pod's secretion repair liquid, and if the injury is severe, it will automatically release everything from treating minor injuries to treating serious injuries, as well as other types of white magic.
Thumb Country, Magic Temple, Talos opens his eyes and wakes up from his dream with lingering palpitations.
"The number of mermaids in the trench just now is more than a million!"
The sloth's counterattack continued after the Plane descended, something that Talos had not anticipated.
On that day, Talos lay down in the True Moth Repair Module and decided that the plane landing was the fifth day of the [Lazy] counterattack, and the dream time was as long as eight days, and now the Thumb Nation has been seven years old, which means that it is now the twelfth day that Talos is facing the [Lazy] counterattack, and just now, he ended a dream that lasted for 1024 days.
If there is any benefit of the Plane Advent to resist the [Lazy] counterattack, it is that after the end of a dream, Talos has enough time to recognize the current situation and not to confuse the reality of the dream.
If Talos remained on the main material plane, he would have to endure 16 days, 32 days, 64 days, 128 days, 512 days, and 1024 days of dreams in just seven days, leaving him with only one day to rest.
In fact, there is not a day, because of the influence of [laziness], Talos sleeps at least 20 hours a day, once his will is not firm, it will not take a few days for him to confuse dreams with reality because of the exaggerated proportion of time, and treat reality as a dream.
Despite this, the dream just now is still extremely dangerous, and it is a life and death.
The proportions of the time of the year between the Thumb Realm and the Main Matter Plane correspond to one day, and the experience of dealing with counterattacks many times, made Talos quickly realize that he was in a dream.
However, the wakefulness of consciousness did not interrupt the continued evolution of the dream, and his will could not exert any influence on the dream, and the dense trench merfolk roared and surrounded him, launching an attack.
- When Talos descended to the Terra plane, he hunted down this disgusting deep-sea creature that did not exist on the main matter plane.
Just like in reality, Talos retained his fourth-order strength in his dreams, relying on his strength and skillful combat skills, holding four frost steel scimitars in his hands, he slashed the surrounding trench merfolk one by one, the blood almost stained the sea water scarlet, and the corpses were piled up at the bottom of the sea into a small mountain.
But the trench merfolk have advantages that Talos does not have, one is the number, thousands, and the strength of each one has reached the second order, and the upper and lower left and right sides surround Talos, and the other is the will, they are the product of the [lazy] counterattack, under the control of the primordial desire, they are not afraid of death, and face death.
It can be said that the Trench Merfolk were born in the dream world with only one purpose and the purpose of their existence, and that is to kill Talos.
One, two, three, four......
After a week, Talos's mental and physical strength deteriorated to a certain point, and he inevitably felt exhausted and gradually fell into disadvantage.
In the three major professional systems of bloodline, spellcaster, and cleric, as long as they do not reach the fifth rank, theoretically speaking, they can all be consumed by the tactics of the sea of people, but it is usually through the second-level professional.
This was the case with Talos, where thousands of trench merfolk converged like schools of sardines, forming a vast oppressive and terrifying shadow, swimming and spinning rapidly in the water.
They don't have a penchant for fighting, and usually take advantage of the death of a trench merfolk in front of them, scratch a wound on Talos, and then quickly retreat into the school, where the next trench merfolk fill it, repeating the process.
The overwhelming, dense with sharp fangs and hideous bone spurs were like a high-speed rotating file, tightening more and more, trying to strangle Talos.
Two fists are no match for four hands, and although Talos has four arms, he is still in danger in the face of tens of thousands of trench merfolk.
The Trench Merfolk's suicidal assault caused Talos a lot of problems, and three months later, his scale armor for defense began to be scrapped.
In the past, Talos had complained that the Dream Eater's body prevented him from exercising his combat expertise and bloodline expertise, but now the opportunity came, but it was too dangerous.
Homeopathic Slash, Multi-Weapon Combat, Savage Charge, Dual-Weapon Tear, Riptide Arrow, Matrolpool, Raindrops......
One by one, the combat expertise and bloodline expertise matured under the pressure of survival instinct and the edge of life and death, and the dual-weapon tear was officially upgraded to a multi-weapon tear a month later, and the characteristics of the froststeel scimitar made Talos barely breathe a sigh of relief.
"Red Alert!"
"Red Alert!"
"Red Alert!"
Without having to go through the Ring of the Magic Net, Leonhard could see that the viscous liquid in the inner compartment had been stained red, it was the blood of Talos, and the situation was worse than any other night.
If you really want to say how serious the wounds on Talos's body are, it is obviously not true, because each wound is not big or deep, it is an insignificant small injury for any bloodline knight, and it does not even need to be bandaged, and the strong flesh of the bloodline knight alone can heal quickly.
But if there is such a wound on the body every second, the situation seems a little strange and serious.
Spells flickered, and the True Worm Repair Pod detected that the target's injuries were beyond the healing range of the repair solution, and began to use all kinds of white magic engraved in it.
The situation did not improve because of this, and it could even be said that it did not help, and gradually, wounds that could not be healed by white magic appeared, and the bleeding did not stop.
Based on Leonhard's rich life experience and combat experience, it can be seen that it is not that the wounds cannot be healed, but that the wounds left by the unknown enemy on Talos are too many and too dense, and they are superimposed on each other, causing the appearance that the wounds cannot be healed.
The flickering of the spell's aura flickered more and more frequently, which was terrifying, and the shrill sirens of the True Worm Repair Module made Leonhard feel a pang of distraction.
It wasn't that he hadn't offered to stimulate Talos's consciousness through the True Worm Repair Pod to awaken him from his slumber, but Sandra vetoed him.
"Fuck you can't bother!"
Very rarely, this great knight, who had always been very gentle, cursed.
Knock Knock –
A torrential whirlpool appeared beside Leonhard, swam out of it Sandra, and with a finger she reached out, a magical aura burst out.
Blue magical aura shrouded the True Moth's repair pod, seeping inward, turning into clear streams of water, flowing and swirling around every inch of Talos's skin, from the top of his head to his tail, all wounds healed in an instant.
Huge vitality filled every corner of the True Worm Restoration Module, layer upon layer, eventually enveloping Talos into a cocoon of water.
Knock! Knock!
Leonhard heard a regular and powerful heartbeat coming from it, like an embryo of life that had just been born in the depths of the ocean.
- Legendary Spell, Ocean of Life!
"Don't worry, Leo, Tal will wake up soon. ”
Faced with her husband's gaze, Sandra comforted dryly, but it did not achieve the desired effect.
"We need to talk. The Grand Knight said.
"When it comes to a big problem, objectively speaking, the fewer people who know, the better. ”
The Grand Knight didn't speak again, insisting on his attitude with his eyes.
"You can't continue to fight, or you will be surrounded and killed by them sooner or later!"
Talos couldn't remember how many trench merfolk he had killed, the surrounding waters had long since turned into blood and corpses were piled up, but the number of trench merfolk around him had not decreased significantly, and they were constantly pouring up from the deep sea, one by one.
"This primordial desire counterattack is going to kill me completely in the deep sea. ”
Talos's will could not interfere with the evolution of the dream, but he could use all his strength to urge the blood veins to heal his wounds, suppressing the injuries to a minimum, so as not to die of excessive blood loss.
The real trouble is that the dream maps to the wound in reality, and if it is not treated in time, it is certain to die.
Choosing not to enter the watch world, but to lie down in the True Moth Repair Module for a plane descent is probably the wisest and most long-term decision Talos has made recently.
With the True Moth Repair Pod present, Talos doesn't have to worry about minor injuries, even if the wounds that continue to appear on his body overnight are beyond the scope of the True Moth Repair Pod's treatment, Brenda will send a message to Sandra through the Magic Web Ring.
A legendary mage, coupled with some of the information revealed to Sandra before the arrival of the Talos plane, his body far away from the main material plane will not be in any danger to his life for the time being.
"So now, all I have to do is to guarantee that I can survive the 1,024-day siege of the trench merfolk in my dreams!"
