Chapter 276: Antecedents and Consequences
Two tests were not enough for Fang Jin to figure out the mysterious monster under the mud.
He thought about it for a moment and activated the skill attached to the Heart of Rock Pendant to summon the earth elemental of LV15.
The level of this summoning unit is directly proportional to the equipping unit.
Because of this, at the moment, this earth element was already much more powerful than the earth element that Fang Jin had recruited when he first obtained it.
Under Fang Jin's control, the earth elemental strode towards the riverbank.
But the difference this time was that when he was about to get close to the death distance of fifty meters, Fang Jin made a move to add the Saint Blessing Technique to this earth elemental!
Under the protection of the bright light, 30% damage reduction!
Fang Jin didn't believe it, he was a relatively fleshy earth element, and with this state, he could be killed in seconds.
The last five steps!
Under the watchful eye of Fang Jin and Song Miao, the earth element unconsciously stepped into the warning circle.
The next moment, the dark green tentacles that impressed the two of them appeared on time without missing a second. Suddenly poking out from under the silt, it was a hard blow to the earth elemental!
"Bang"
There was a dull sound of stone cracking.
The earth elemental's body, from the left shoulder to the right underside of the ribs, obliquely appeared a bright crack.
But its body shook a little, and after all, it didn't disappoint Fang Jin, and it stubbornly withstood the attack of the tentacles!
"Good!"
Fang Jin's eyes lit up.
The dark green tentacles under the mud didn't seem to have expected the earth elemental to resist the attack. There was a pause for about two seconds before he suddenly leaned out again.
This time, there seemed to be a pitch-black glow on the tentacles.
Originally, the earth element, which Fang Jin expected, should be able to resist another blow, was instantly destroyed under the pitch-black light, and the remaining vitality was instantly destroyed, turning into pieces of shattered earth and scattering with a bang!
Although it still failed to reveal the true nature of the monster under the mud, it was clear that there was more to be gained from this temptation.
For example, the attack interval of tentacles, and a new single-target damage ability.
As a result, more inspiration poured into the heart of the brocade.
He thought for a moment and said to Song Miao, "You are a hundred meters away from the edge of the magic array, try to attack the magic array." ”
The tentacles have a range of 50 meters horizontally and a height of 20 meters, but the range of the archer can be much higher. In the face of high-speed moving professionals, the hit rate may be greatly reduced after exceeding a few tens of meters, but the magic array is a fixed building unit that cannot be moved!
Fang Jin was very curious, what would that mysterious monster do if he found that the enemy attacking the magic array was outside his warning range?
Song Miao actually thought of this method herself, and she was eager to draw arrows, stretch her bow, and aim.
The bow is full like the moon!
In this regard, although the Ranger is not as good as a marksman, it is still easy to shoot a stationary target with a full bow from a hundred meters away.
With the familiar sound of arrows breaking through the air, the feather arrows approached the magic array in an instant.
However, something unexpected happened. On the multiple coral reef pillars that suppressed the magic array, transparent waves suddenly lit up.
Under the effect of the invisible force field, the arrow was inexplicably deflected and missed!
"How so?" Song Miao was stunned for a moment, a little unresponsive.
Thinking that he had missed, he was unconvinced and fired the bow again, and came with a double shot.
It's a pity that the result is the same as before!
The two arrows, one after the other, were deflected by the invisible force field and catapulted into the mud not far behind the magic array.
"Intermediate Arrow Deflection Enchantment!"
Fang Jin, who recognized the doorway of the coral reef stone pillar, cautiously said the means of protecting the magic array.
Song Miao's expression was a little unsightly, and she asked, "That enchantment, it's very powerful?" ”
Fang Jin nodded: "At least the top stage of the bronze rank and the quasi-silver level can threaten it." Archers at this stage, no matter how much they come, they are in vain. ”
"So what's going on?" Song Miao was anxious.
"It's not very hopeful, but maybe the spell can be tried."
Fang Jin said slowly, and stepped forward himself. It just so happened that I learned the skill of the Sacrificial Spear at level 15 not long ago, so I can use it to try it out.
"Hah!"
He let out a low snort, his vitality quickly converging on his left hand, leaning back, and making a gesture of throwing forward.
The invisible life force converged into a solid golden spear, and the tip of the spear was faintly covered with red blood!
To make sure the damage was sufficient, he drained a full 20% of his health in one go, reaching the upper limit of his skills.
Then, throw!
The spear of sacrifice turned into a golden bolt of lightning and flew with unparalleled speed. What's even more terrifying is that because there is no entity, there is no sound in the whole process, and absolute silence is guaranteed!
The power of this magic attack should have been quite good, two or three hundred points.
But under Song Miao's disappointed gaze and Fang Jin's somewhat mentally prepared gaze, he was once again dissipated by the rising red thunder.
Obviously, the magic array also has spell protection!
In this way, it seems that the only possible means of destroying it is a physical attack at close range.
But if you want to rush over, the first thing you have to face is the unknown magical beast under the silt.
If it stood on the ground openly, even if it was a level 15 lord, with the strength of nearly four hundred bronze rank under Fang Jin's current command, it would still be able to strangle it. If it really doesn't work, you can also send a group of people to contain or lead away, and the other part can take the opportunity to destroy the magic array.
But that mysterious demonic beast was under the mud all the time, refusing to show its true body, only showing its tentacles, which was too difficult!
Just when Fang Jin was hesitating whether to go over to test in person, the team that had been temporarily sent downstream to meet him sent someone to send the news in a panic.
"President, it's not good!"
The thieves who caught up with them through the trails along the way reported what they discovered shortly after advancing downstream.
The investigation team sent earlier was attacked by an unknown enemy, and all of them were killed!
"Six people, all dead?"
Not only was Fang Jin a little shocked, but Song Miao's face also changed greatly.
"All dead!" The thief nodded and said affirmatively: "The corpses of the six people are scattered relatively closely, and it can be seen that the enemy's strength is quite strong. It is worth mentioning that the cars they abandoned and the direction of their escape were all returning. Moreover, no trace of any suspicious enemy was found on the ground nearby, only a few snake scales were found. ”
As he spoke, he spread out his hand and showed the two of them a hexagonal scale the size of a matchbox, the green scale with faint marks of being burned by the fire spell.
Compared with all the weirdness on the upper reaches of the Baishan River, the scales brought by the thieves were much more familiar to Fang Jin.
After a few repeated glances, he recognized the origin of this thing.
"Flying Snake! Amphibian Fish-Human! ”
Amphibious fish-people, belonging to a branch of the fish-people tribe.
And the Fish-Man is an important member of the Twilight plane's ocean forces, and its status is comparable to that of the sea giants and Naga. In the previous life, with the advent of the end times, the oceans and lakes on the earth were gradually occupied by these aquatic monsters in the twilight plane.
Among them, the flying snake, a rare sea monster that can fly, is a powerful fighter domesticated by the amphibious fish people.
"Amphibious fish-man...... Magic Circle...... Baishan River is broken......"
Connecting several key pieces of information together, Fang Jin suddenly had a flash of inspiration and understood the general cause and effect!
