Chapter 2164: Exploring the Trail of Sha Lan (2)
The laser traps in front of Bediwell are very complex, and because the laser emitters are constantly moving randomly, it is impossible to accurately measure their movement with the naked eye alone, which means that in order to pass this ladder of countless laser traps, the challenger must have amazing dynamic vision, extraordinary agility and body-brain coordination, and lightning-fast reflexes.
Is it so difficult to just recruit at the first hurdle? How high-risk is that commission?
"I want to ask before I go down," Bediwell asked, subconsciously touching the sleeve of his loose short-sleeved shirt, "It's okay if the body hasn't been hit by the laser, right?"
"According to our employer's original request, it is true that the body of the person being tested is not hit, and it does not matter if the clothes are hit. The big man in the black suit replied, "Of course, if you are afraid that your clothes will be damaged, you can also take off the loose clothes on the spot." When you arrive at the testing site below, we will deliver your clothes with you. "
"No need. Bediwell replied thoughtfully.
"Tails and other appendages floating in mid-air are also uncontrollable, so a laser hit on your tail is not disqualified. The big man looked at Bediwell's wolf tail and added: "Of course, the tail will still sting if it is burned by the laser, and I suggest that you tie your tail up." "
"There's no need to worry about that. The werewolf youth replied without emotion. The tail is an important balancing organ for orcs, and it needs to be allowed to swing when moving. If he forcibly tied his tail, his sense of balance would be disrupted, and he would be particularly prone to falling when he walked, let alone through this complex and changeable laser trap.
"Then again, such an exaggerated trap is also beneficial to petite people, what if the person who came to take the commission is a big man with a strong body?" Bediwell couldn't help but complain, "Isn't that doomed to fail before it even started?"
"The density of the laser traps will be adjusted according to the size of the challenger. The big man in the black suit replied, "We will test the bounty hunters who have been commissioned this time in a relatively fair range, please rest assured." "
In other words, the density of the laser trap in front of him has already been adjusted according to Bediwell's physique. However, it is still dense to the point of exaggeration. The werewolf youth couldn't help but mutter.
That's fine. It's useless to think too much, and things can't go any way without taking the first step. The werewolf youth walked up the stairs.
The stairs were so deep that there should be at least thirty or forty yards to walk before reaching the floor below, and the road ahead was full of lasers that swept back and forth continuously, randomly. Even at the laser trap closest to Bediville, five yards away, there were three pencil-thick laser strips sweeping up and down, left and right, basically concentrated on the upper layer. Originally, the mechanism could be passed smoothly by leaning over the slide, but the terrain was a continuous downward staircase, and it was not a wise choice to use the slide indiscriminately, and if you slipped your foot, you would roll all the way up the stairs to the end.
Sure enough, at this time, you still have to be honest and practical.
Bediwell subconsciously touched the silver bracelet on his right wrist. The solution is yes. With the "Acceleration Potion" contained in the bracelet, Bediwell can easily control his physical sensation time. With that, the lasers in front of him act as if they couldn't move, and it would be easy to get through the laser trap.
But that's not interesting.
It was a difficult problem given to him by his employer, a difficulty that he had to overcome with his true strength. If even this kind of test has to rely on the blessing of equipment to pass, then the bigger problems that await him will probably only be more difficult. It's better not to use this kind of cheating trick.
So the remaining choice is to either bite the bullet and force it through, or use the skills at your disposal.
If you break through, the success rate is only about 50%. The werewolf youth pondered. If it's a level that can be challenged many times, this 50% success rate is undoubtedly very optimistic. But now he only had one chance to challenge the test in front of him, and Bediwell had to get through the laser trap unscathed, and being lightly bruised to the point would be considered disqualified. It's rare to get a commission that can get a high reward, and it's not a happy thing to be halfway like this.
Therefore, it is better to seek stability here, and use the method that will inevitably pass through the laser trap array without damage to attack it.
Bedeville's right hand pinched out a fireball, it was the fire of his spell.
"Let's get started!" the werewolf youth cast a new spell and sprinted towards the laser trap array.
The evening before the day.
"What? can this thing be done?" Bediwell looked at Archmage Logan with a puzzled expression.
"The Mana Probe has a very weak response, and I think its magic works. The old man replied, staring intently at a transparent container filled with water.
In that container was soaked a pocket watch for timekeeping, and on the table outside the container there was another pocket watch of the same style. Originally, they were exactly the same time, and the pocket watch was even adjusted to point exactly the second hand to the exact position, in order to compare the time difference between the inside and outside of the container.
And now, after ten minutes of testing, it was clear that the pocket watch soaked in the water-filled container went one minute and five seconds faster than the pocket watch on the table.
In other words, [time] in that filling container does pass faster than the time outside the container. Logan's experiment with time magic did work.
"Is it an extra minute or so every ten minutes...... The werewolf youth snorted thoughtfully, "On average, that's about 0.1 seconds more per second. This one...... It's subtle. "
"But at least it proves that the [Spell Fire] in your hand is indeed capable of using [Time Magic]. The mage looked at the fireball in the werewolf youth's hand: "What, although the orcs can't use magic on their own, they can still use time magic by giving everything to the [Spell Fire] and letting it create additional [positive entropy of time]." Although the effect is really weak, and it is limited to unleashing time magic in your blood, or at least blood water diluted with your blood. "
"If the effect is too weak, it's a fatal injury. Bediwell smiled bitterly: "The activation conditions and the duration of the spell are unknown, and the extra time only increases by about 0.1 seconds every 1 second, and it is also unknown whether the increased [time] here will overflow to the outside and be neutralized instantly." Isn't this kind of spell completely meaningless? "
"No, maybe you can find its hidden value. The old mage smiled mysteriously, "For example, release the spell fire directly in your body, so that [time] increases in extremely local places and has an effect on your physical body. What would it look like if you used it that way?"
The answer is------
Puff, puff, puff.
Bediwell's heart was beating faster and faster.
That's right, the werewolf youth used the spell fire to unleash [Time Magic] in his heart, causing the blood around the heart and his heart itself to gain an additional [Time Acceleration] effect.
The use of [Acceleration] near the heart area increased his heart rate, allowing his heart to transmit a small amount of blood with a small acceleration effect to every part of his body with a higher efficiency.
During the [Heartbeat] spell taking effect, Beddiviville gained a slight amount of physical acceleration, and the blood supply to his brain increased, which also meant that his mind would be clearer and his mind would be more agile during this short period of time!
This is a double acceleration that strengthens both the [physical] and [mental] at the same time. Although the acceleration effect is only about a tenths of a second per second------ it is not at all comparable to the effects of Logan's [Acceleration Potion] and [Acceleration Potion]------ but it lasts longer, and the actual effect bonus is not just "increasing by 0/1 second per second"!
Bedeville swooped down and dodged the three lasers that were almost waist-high with him.
He had only rushed out less than half a step before two lasers came in front of him, one left and one right, and they kept flipping!
The werewolf youth saw the movement of the laser trap thoroughly, and the oncoming beam of light was obviously changing rapidly, but in the eyes of Bedwell at this moment, it was not much different from slow motion, because Bedwell's thinking was also accelerated, and everything in front of him slowed down in his eyes!
Bedeville twisted his waist and performed an incredible side flip, easily dodging the two lasers that came from the flank! Time slowed down in his eyes, but his body was unusually light------ much lighter than when he used [Acceleration Potion]!
The [Acceleration Potion] inside the silver bracelet is a stimulant, and by activating the mechanism on the bracelet, the drug will be injected into the veins of Bedeville, temporarily accelerating the spirit of the werewolf youth.
But his [spirit] accelerated, but [the body] did not speed up correspondingly, so at this time Bediwell only saw that the speed of the whole time slowed down, and his own body movement slowed down at the same time! Even if his mind could keep up with that speed, his physical body could not! In this case, it was easy for his mind to dodge some kind of oncoming attack, but his body was so heavy that he didn't listen to the command and didn't have time to dodge!
And the effect of this [spell --- heart beating] is completely different, it can almost be said to be a simplified version of Logan's [acceleration potion], because the spell has a positive entropy that actually creates extra time, and Bediwell's [spirit] and [body] are both speeding up at the same time, so the world in his eyes is not only slowing down, but his own body is also becoming faster and lighter, and can keep up with the extreme reaction of [spirit] acceleration!
Five or six more lasers grazed past Bedeville, but they were all simply dodged by the werewolf youth, who could be said to be advancing in the laser trap array completely unharmed!
Until------
The laser array in front of him was also full of strength, and instantly changed into a laser net! The upper and lower left and right sides were all blocked by dense lasers, and only a small gap in the middle could be passed through!
It's almost impossible to get through a gap of this size without being scratched by a laser!
