Chapter 249 Thunderbird

Chu Jing stretched out his right hand, and in the drizzling rain, he attracted thunder and lightning to the palm of his right hand, which looked like he was holding a large light bulb of several kilowatts in his hand.

However, after these thunderbolts entered Chu Jing's hands, they settled down, and then slowly dissipated.

As for the principle of dissipation, Chu Jing is not clear, he can only control thunder and lightning, but it does not mean that the knowledge of physics is full marks.

With the lighting of Chujing, the ground is much brighter, almost as much as daytime.

Lian's serious search with full attention finally brought a harvest.

"This!" Lian suddenly crouched down, put on waterproof gloves, and picked up a stone that glowed blue.

She carefully held the stone and said to the others, "This is the Thunder Stone, a Thunder Stone, which is worth fifty besos on the island of Rollie. ”

Fifty besos is a lot of money on Rollie Island, most of the monsters are not worth fifty besos, and as for other tasks, it takes adventurers to work hard for half a month.

As for how the royal city traded with the merchants who came to the island, and how much shell currency it was worth, I don't know, but seeing how hard the workers on the island worked, I think the value is also very considerable.

Xu Qian took it curiously, she didn't care about the muddy water on it, wiped it with her sleeve, and exclaimed: "It's so beautiful, it looks like a gem, but the color is so dull." ”

"Thunder stone can not be stored for a long time, so it is not popular as a gem on the market, the thunder element contained in the thunder stone will be lost in a few years, or even a few days, this thunder stone is probably already half-life, so the value is not very high. ”

Xu Qian's eyes lit up, "Is there a higher value thunder stone?"

Fifty Besso was already very surprised to her, and of course she would be very interested to hear that there were thunder stones with better value.

"Of course, alchemists can be very rich...... Except for me, they don't care how much Besso is spent, they only care if the materials they buy have value. ”

Lian said as a matter of course.

Bai Lan beside him was deeply touched, he spent countless fortunes and failed to find a way to cure his mother, but Lian found the cause of the disease at once, and there was a clear treatment, although it was very difficult to obtain materials, but the effect was also obvious, and he was cured that night.

Alchemists with such magical abilities, even if those high-ranking officials and nobles can't use them, they will be willing to spend a lot of money to tie up, after all, anyone may be in trouble sometimes.

Lian said to Xu Qian, Bai Lan, and Chu Jing: "Only we dare to come here, quick, help me find the thunder stone, I want the best one." ”

When giving the order, Lian was not polite at all, but the others didn't feel uncomfortable, they didn't care about these people, at least, it was impossible for friends to turn against each other because of offensive words, probably.

Thunder stone is luminous, which is a more conspicuous feature in the dark, but the muddy water splashed by the rain can easily bury the thunder stone, so the difficulty is not small.

The thunder and lightning in Chu Jing's hand also made Lian feel irritable, and the light directly covered the blue light of the thunder stone.

"You stand a little next to the side. ”

Chu Jing had no choice but to walk more than ten meters to the side, no matter how far he went, his control of the thunder and lightning in the sky would be much weaker, and he could not guarantee the safety of everyone.

There are indeed a lot of thunder stones in this place, and after Lian found the first one, Xu Qian and Bai Lan also began to harvest.

The three simply picked up a twig and began to scan the ground little by little.

Chu Jing was idle and had nothing to do, and he looked for it seriously.

This is a matter of complete luck, and I don't know if Chu Jing is too unlucky, or if the location is not good, so he didn't find it at all.

"Look, I've got a big one. Xu Qian held a palm-sized thunder stone to show off to Chu Jing.

Bai Lan held several in his hands, and from a distance, they flashed and flashed, as if they were holding stars in the sky.

It's really unfair!

Chu Jing also felt that the thunder and lightning that attracted him to his hand did bring great interference to his search for the thunder stone, and in a fit of anger, he directly threw the thunder ball out and threw it into the sky.

"Chirp!"

The ball of lightning did not explode in the sky, but was swallowed by a bird that flew from nowhere, and made a burping sound.

Seeing this bird, Chu Jing was stunned, this bird's whole body was like thunder and lightning, not so much a bird, but a bird-shaped thunder and lightning.

The others were also startled by the bird's cry and turned their heads to look.

"This is the Thunderbird. ”

Lian was unfazed, explaining: "When a storm comes, there will be a ptarmigan on the sea, some crew members call it a bird that brings bad luck, and some crew members call it the guardian saint of the crew. However, according to the analysis of previous alchemists, this bird feeds on thunder and lightning, and storms are generally accompanied by lightning and thunder, so the thunderbird will fly over when the storm occurs. ”

"It's not surprising that there are thunderbirds on Thunder Island, at least, the incident of the thunderbird hurting people still happens. ”

After listening to Lian's words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, if the Thunderbird had malicious intentions, in this kind of place, they would not be able to fight normally.

Xu Qian carefully observed the thunderbird and said, "This thunderbird is so beautiful, it looks a little like a sea eagle, its neck is like a crane, and its voice is also very gentle, I don't know what it will look like if it doesn't have thunder and lightning on it?"

Lian was stunned for a moment, her eyes were also filled with curiosity and curiosity, "No one has ever caught a thunderbird, even if an alchemist asks for a sword master, it's useless, it's like a real thunderbolt, it won't be trapped, and it's fast enough to exceed the eyes." ”

Lian and Xu Qian looked at Chu Jing at the same time.

Xu Qian said: "Aren't you able to control the thunder and lightning freely, can you catch this thunderbird?"

At this time, the Thunderbird had just swallowed the thunder and lightning that Chu Jing had been concentrating on for a long time, and was lazily burping and hovering in the air, not knowing that the humans below were having bad ideas about themselves.

Chu Jing also looked at the thunderbird above with the same curiosity, is this thing an element, or a creature?

No matter how spiritual the Thunderbird may seem, I just don't know if it's a creature made of thunder and lightning.

The existence of elemental creatures is not strange, after all, even monsters, monsters, and ghosts have appeared, and spirit stones can become essences, and it is too normal to have elemental creatures.

"Okay, I'll try. ”

The thunder and lightning raging in the sky actually stopped because of the arrival of the thunderbird, maybe it was because Chu Jing had just absorbed too much thunder and lightning, after all, it would take a while for the friction to be electrified, and new thunder and lightning would form.

"Be careful, if lightning strikes, throw your umbrella or dagger into the air, be careful. ”

Chu Jing explained to the three of them, and then, he gathered a black thunderball in his hand and threw it towards the thunderbird.

Because it's a magic thunder, it's slightly stained with the black of hell, and it's a little different from the usual thunder and lightning.

When the Thunderbird saw that Chu Jing actually threw a thunderball at him, he suddenly perked up, directly grew his mouth, and swallowed the thunderball in one gulp.

Damn, I don't even pay attention to the magic thunder, swallow it directly, aren't you afraid of causing gastrointestinal adverse reactions?

The Thunderbird's shining eyes stared directly at Chu Jing, as if he wanted to get some more thunder and lightning from Chu Jing.

Chu Jing now really wants to fly to the Thunderbird to see if the Thunderbird is a thunder or a bird, but the strength he shows is only a beginner sword master, if he skips the great sword master and directly becomes a flying sword master, it will be somewhat bad.

The difference in strength is not big, and you can communicate with Xu Qian and the others, if you directly go up two levels and become a rare and respectable sword saint queen, then I am afraid that everyone will be much more restrained together, which is not what Chu Jing wants to see.

But if you don't fly, how can you get to the Thunderbird?

Chu Jing saw that the thunderball was so attractive to the Thunderbird, so he simply summoned a magic thunderball again and put it in his hand, but did not project it.

The thunderball slowly rises, luring the Thunderbird.

Thunderbird really couldn't help but want to come over and devour the thunderball, after all, instinct drove it.

Chu Jing only felt that there was a flower in front of him, as if a flash of lightning flashed, and the thunderball disappeared, and then looked at the thunderbird, it actually flew directly above Chu Jing, less than two meters.

What kind of speed is this? With Chu Jing's strength, he couldn't see clearly, if this was to take the initiative to attack him, even if it was a small piece of wood, hitting a person at such an unimaginable speed, it would be able to instantly penetrate the human body.

Is the Thunderbird so strong?

Xu Qian and Bai Lan both covered their mouths with their hands, for fear that they would scream and cause the Thunderbird to attack.

Lian didn't move, not knowing what she was thinking.

The distance was so close, Chu Jing could feel that the thunder and lightning on the thunderbird were uncontrollable, at least not something that Chu Jing could control, even if they wanted to use the thunder and lightning on their bodies to attract each other, they couldn't do it.

However, when it got closer, Chu Jing could also see clearly that the whole body of the thunderbird was completely wrapped in thunder and lightning, and there was no such thing as feathers at all.

Chu Jing had no choice but to smile bitterly at Lian: "It seems that I can't help it, it's too fast, it's impossible to catch it." ”

Xu Qian said worriedly: "Ignore it, let's get out of here quickly, it's a monster after all, it's better not to provoke it." ”

Lian also gave up studying the Thunderbird, after all, his strength was not good, and many things were not something they should touch.

"Let's go. ”

The four of them carefully bypassed the Thunderbird and walked towards the distance.

The Thunderbird tilted his head and looked at the four people who left, especially Chu Jing who stayed for a moment and also spread his wings and flew away.

As the thunderbird left, the thunder and lightning finally began to wreak havoc again, and Chu Jing once again resisted the thunder and lightning for the three of them, but this time Chu Jing did not dare to pour out the thunder and lightning at will, so as not to attract other thunderbirds.

The light rain has not stopped, and the four of them decided to find a place to rest first, mainly because they have picked up a lot of thunder stones, and Lian wants to try the effect of thunder stones.

It is very difficult for ordinary island workers to find a place to shelter from the wind and rain, but for adventurers, especially those with strength, it is actually very simple.

Finding a high ground, Chu Jing's half-foot sword cut the stone as easily as tofu, forcibly dug a big hole in the high and low slope, and then found some big stones to strengthen it a little.

After Chu Jing's efforts, and with the help of Xu Qian and Bai Lan, a simple small cave was completed, because it didn't need to stay too long, so it wasn't that big.

I found some branches, even if they were wet, under the alchemy powder of the lotus, they could quickly and vigorously burn.

Squatting beside the campfire, Lian began to sort out the thunder stones she had collected.

Among them, Bai Lan turned out to be the most found, with seven pieces, but in terms of size, it was not as big as the one Xu Qian was looking for.

The thunder stones all exude a faint blue light, some strong and some weak, very beautiful.

In addition to being beautiful, this thing only works for alchemists.

Lian very skillfully picked up a small piece of thunder stone, put it in the palm of his hand, and whispered in his mouth, the thunder stone slowly turned into powder, but that touch of blue light was still left above the palm of his hand.

"Whew. ”

This time, the lotus needed to be no longer powder, and he blew lightly and blew away the powder of the thunder stone.

"This is the alchemist's thunder. Lian said.

A touch of blue light does have the feeling of electric light, but compared to other alchemy, this little bit of thunder really detracts from prestige.

There was a "crackle", and that little bit of thunder disappeared.

Xu Qian looked at the stone powder on the ground distressedly, and said with a sad face: "This is gone, dozens of besos are wasted like this......"

Everyone looked at her speechlessly, but it was indeed a pity to waste a thunder stone like this.

"It's okay, there are many more, I'll show you the others. ”

Lian picked up a thunder stone again, but this time he didn't use it directly, but took out a few small bags, took out a little bit of several alchemy powders and put them in the palm of his hand, and the thunder stone was directly placed on top of the powder pile.

"Palm Thunder!"

With a low cry from Lian, a three-foot-long thunderbolt shot out of Lian's palm and shot into the open space outside the small cave.

"Bang!"

There was a loud bang, and a puff of black smoke was louder, more powerful than the thunder and lightning falling in the sky.

Xu Qian looked at this scene in surprise and asked blankly, "Does this have the power of a great sword master?"

"The Great Sword Master is high-ranked. Lian didn't seem surprised at all.

When she looked at her hand again, it was empty, and the alchemy powder and the thunder stone were gone, obviously completely disappeared under the blow just now.

The use of such expensive thunder stones and other materials is only a high-level blow of the Great Sword Master, and it can't be fired in bursts, it doesn't seem to be very worthwhile, but it is enough as a means of saving life.

"This is one of the commonly used ways to use thunder stones, the power is acceptable, as for other uses, they need other alchemy materials to cooperate, and I don't have them on me now. ”

"There is no other way, just this trick is enough, if we have a thunder stone a long time ago, then it will not be so difficult to deal with the manticore. Xu Qian was very content.

"Hehe, if there are so many thunder stones, we will also use the risk to deal with the manticore. ”

Xu Qian, who was scared by Lian's words, had nothing to say.

It's an adventurer, risking his life to deal with a manticore, and the exchange for Besso is only enough to buy a few thunder stones, not to mention that a thunder stone may not be able to hit and kill the manticore, no matter how it is calculated, it is not a good deal.

Lian looked at Chu Jing again and asked, "You will draw up a thunderbolt attack move and use it to see the difference between us." ”

Chu Jing's most powerful magic thunder move was the Demon Thunder Fall, a huge magic thunder descending from the sky, and its power was almost the same as that of a four-star black mage's strongest move.

The summoning of demons itself is known for attacking, but the defense is relatively weak.

Chu Jing naturally did not use the magic thunder to descend, but an arc of lightning shot out, hitting a bush outside, and immediately exploded, igniting the flames.

"It's much worse than Thunderstone's. Xu Qian was not very satisfied.

Lian glanced at Chu Jing deeply and said, "It's almost the ordinary blow of the Great Sword Master, and it's a long-range attack, you are really stronger than you imagined." ”

In this way, he has the level of a great sword master? Chu Jing was able to control his strength, and it was obvious that Lian was deliberately exaggerating the strength of this blow.

Did she see that Chu Jing was hiding her strength?

It doesn't matter, as long as you don't say it directly.

Bai Lan just watched from the side and didn't say anything.

They said that the manticore lion or something, she had never experienced it, and as for thunder and lightning and the like, this was also a secret belonging to Chu Jing.

The light rain didn't last long and soon stopped, but the clouds outside hadn't receded, and the clouds on Thunder Island would never recede.

The four of them came out of the cave, the ground was a little muddy, and the thunder stones hidden in the ground were also easier to expose.

"It's probably late at night, and our torches have been refueled twice. ”

Xu Qian complained.

At this time, they may have stretched out the center of Thunder Island, and they couldn't see any torches from afar, that is, any other signs, and they could have seen the scattered lightning rod towers disappear without a trace, all relying on Chu Jing alone to attract thunder and lightning.

Lian picked up another thunder stone, suddenly got up and looked around, and said with some solemnity: "It seems that something is wrong." ”

"What's wrong? Is it too calm? No, the thunder is rolling. ”

Xu Qian also looked around, she was a ranger, and the reconnaissance mission was originally her job, but she didn't find anything, this kind of thunderstorm land, except for the pervert like Chu Jing, or the thunderbird, there should be no other creatures.

Lian shook her head and pointed to the ground, where there was a thunderstone that looked very good.

Xu Qian walked over and picked it up, "It's just a thunder stone, what's strange." ”

"But......" Lian shook the small bag of thunder stones in her hand, which was almost full, "Don't you think there are too many here." ”

“...... Isn't it a good thing? There is no lightning protection device here, and who else dares to come here except us, and it is normal to have more thunder stones. ”

"I don't know, it's just ......"

Lian can't say it, it stands to reason that there are so many thunder stones here, for businessmen whose interests are more important than their lives. It is impossible to give up this great treasure trove because of a little thunder and lightning.

With the value of these thunder stones, it is very easy to build a few lightning rod towers, why did they give up on developing this place?

Chu Jing also raised his vigilance, there must be a demon in the abnormality, there is indeed no one else in this vicinity, who knows if there will be a monster more terrifying than the thunderbird, and even the gathering place of the thunderbird is not strange here.

It's a pity that Chu Jing's perception ability didn't find it at all, it seems, because of the thunder and lightning, this is really just a forbidden place.
