Chapter 153: The Terrifying Chain of Lightning (10th Update)
Ye Qing has been cautiously walking on the edge of the battlefield, never entering how deep the battlefield is, and at the same time looking at the six roads, inspecting the direction of the main battlefield on the island.
This is not to say that I care about how the main battlefield is going, but to prevent the fishmen from transferring powerful fishmen from other places to kill them.
But fortunately, this kind of thing didn't happen, there is no such wise man in the fish-man tribe, in fact, the fish-man side has no tactics at all, and even the command is chaotic, whether it is the leader or the subordinates, they are all rushing up in a swarm.
Of course, if you besiege and kill the swamp creatures who are also unintelligent, it will be no problem, but it will not be possible to deal with snake people with higher IQs than them, and the number of people who are dozens of times higher than snake people is like this, this is the gap in IQ.
Of course, the command of the snake man is not much better, but it is not a problem to crush the fish man.
A battle lasted for almost an hour, the central main battlefield was still the same, the main forces of the two sides were entangled there, and the winner was not yet decided, but it was the edge of the swamp island, the battle situation had changed somewhat, and the defense line of the fish-man tribe unconsciously retreated by hundreds of meters.
The main reason for this is not the Grizzly Bear King, nor Shen Ya, but Ye Qing.
His natural ability is too powerful in low-level group battles, and it can be called a BUG-like existence, so he will go to that station, do nothing, let the enemy attack, and after a while, a large number of fishmen will be seriously injured.
Wherever he went, the fish-men in any area were always suddenly injured from time to time, and a cut was suddenly cut on their bodies from time to time, and with the poor intelligence of the fish-people, they didn't know what was going on, and they couldn't understand the mystery of the power of space.
It took an hour to advance to such a point, or because he deliberately controlled it, once the fish-man collapsed too much, he would restrain himself a little to avoid a direct collapse and attract the attention of the fish-man powerhouse.
Originally, he didn't think so, but it was Shen Ya who reminded him that Shen Ya relied on his high speed to get close to the back of the fishman, and told him that there were several very powerful fishmen behind the fishman, so that he should not be too high-profile, so as not to be struck by lightning.
At first, he didn't think about this sentence in detail, until, half an hour later, when the direction of the main force of the fish-man was about to be unable to hold on, an old fish-man who looked extremely old and had a wooden staff stood in the middle of the swamp island,
Stretching out his hand, a thunderbolt exploded in the clear sky, spreading all over the island, and a thigh-thick blue lightning flew out from the old fishman's fingers, instantly hitting a half-human-thick swamp python, and half of the swamp python's body was charred.
This is a chain of lightning, after killing the first swamp python in seconds, a Z-shaped refraction is instantly refracted to the nearest other swamp crocodile, and half of its body is charred.
In just a few seconds, this thigh-thick chain of lightning has been refracted nearly a hundred times, emptying a large area of the snake people in an instant, including more than twenty snake people, who were killed on the spot without any resistance.
The chain lightning has ended, but the whole audience is still silent, the entire battlefield is quiet, everyone is shocked by this earth-destroying lightning, even Ye Qing is no exception.
However, after all, he was also a mage himself, and he had expected the power of the spell, and he woke up the fastest, and looked at the center of the island to find that the old fish-man had fallen and was being carried back by a group of fish-men.
"It's good that there is only one blow, otherwise it would have been miserable!"
The power of this enhanced chain lightning is too strong, and Ye Qing estimates that even he may not be able to withstand it.
Judging by the performance of this spell, the hit must be extremely strong to resist the spell's additional instant kill effect.
That's right, this strengthened chain lightning has a spike effect, if the body is not strong, it will be directly turned into charcoal by the terrifying power, and if it is tough, it will only take normal damage, instead of the body being cored and die on the spot.
The normal chain lightning is a six-ring spell, and the blow cast by the old fishman just now is obviously beyond the scope of the normal six-ring chain lightning, there is only one possibility, that is, this spell is strengthened, such as the spell is extremely effective, the spell is powerful, or this is a powerful spell created by itself based on the chain lightning.
This situation is normal, there are many versions of a magic missile alone, and there are missile storms and the like behind them, which are all based on the magic missile spell.
However, with the IQ of the fish man, being able to cast a spell is a miracle in itself, saying that he wants to create his own spell, Ye Qing didn't believe it first, so nine times out of ten, this spell has been strengthened, and it is not a spell that is extremely effective and powerful, but strengthened by other methods.
For example, the power of faith or divine power.
There is also a basis for his conjecture, each fish-man tribe has a place of sacrifice, not to mention the small fish-man tribe, the big fish-man tribe has a large number of fish-people, and it is normal to condense the power of faith after a long period of sacrifice, if there are fish-people who have a way to use the power of these beliefs, it is normal to strengthen a spell.
The old fishman who cast the spell just now looked better than the other fishmen, which represented the identity in the fishman tribe, maybe he was usually in charge of the sacrifice, or maybe he could borrow the power of faith on the altar.
But if this is the case, Ye Qing is a little worried in his heart, a fish-man tribe that can borrow the power of faith, this is very dangerous in itself.
Moreover, I heard Shen Ya say that she felt more than a powerful aura behind the fish-man tribe, that is to say, there is more than one such old fish-man, which is....
He decided that it would be better to keep a low profile.
It's important to start the prestige from the snake tribe and get the map, but it's important to put everything else aside compared to the small life.
Thinking of this, Ye Qing glanced at the snake tribe and quietly adjusted his position.
The next situation was as he expected, the snake tribe after surviving the initial shock, launched another attack on the fish man tribe, and it didn't take long to force out an old fish man again.
But this time, the spell cast by the old fish-man was not a chain of lightning, but an ice storm, and the enhanced version of the ice storm covered more than a hundred meters, clearing hundreds of swamp creatures on the spot.
Directly frozen to death, the cold roared, and a large number of weak swamp creatures were frozen into ice mounds, and only creatures that were large enough and had a strong physique survived.
The direct lethality of this spell is not as great as the previous chain lightning, but it is better in scope, and the effect is better, directly freezing a large number of weak swamp creatures to death, that is, reducing a large number of cannon fodder, and the snake tribe has lost more than a quarter of its personnel in this one stroke alone.
After two waves of spells, the fish-man tribe did not send any more strong people, and there was no need to send them again, the snake tribe was hit by two **, and its strength was weakened, which was no longer enough to suppress the fish-man tribe.
To be honest, it's a bit strange that Ye Qing is a little strange, the snake tribe dares to attack the fish tribe, there is not a single spell caster in the team, only some snake tribe unique beast trainers, the overall strength of the fish tribe is a little stronger, and this point has been erased under the two spells, do you want to continue to attack next?
He couldn't figure out what the snake tribe thought, but even if they didn't order them to retreat, he cooperated and continued the fight.
Of course, it is still necessary to maintain a little advantage, so that the snake man can see that he is still very powerful and valuable.
After a few minutes like this, Ye Qing was about to adjust his tactics and let the Grizzly King rush forward a little more, when he suddenly received a message from Shen Ya:
"Leave it alone, let the grizzly stay there, and you move from the edge of the island to the back of the island."
???
Ye Qing's head was full of question marks, he didn't understand this information very well, and asked strangely:
"Why? Aren't we going to do this? Could it be that the two of us want to sneak up on the fish-man tribe from behind? ”
Shen Ya immediately replied:
"I have infiltrated the Fish-Man tribe and seen their altar with an unformed totem on it."
"Really?"
Ye Qing's face showed joy, and he subconsciously asked.
Shen Ya said that he knew what the totem was, not the usual drawing, but the object of worship of the fish-man tribe, referring to a certain existence similar to a god.
Of course, just similarly, the totem is not a deity, nor does it have the power of a deity, but only refers to this type of existence.
To be precise, the totem is similar to the Guardian, that is, it can be a Guardian or not, the Fish-Man tribe has a Guardian, and now an unformed totem has appeared, indicating that the two are not the same category.
An unformed totem is very valuable to reincarnators, and the totem itself alone is a rare magic material, which can be made into a top-level equipment, at least a legendary equipment, and if the added materials are precious enough, it is possible to make a mythical equipment or golden plot equipment.
Of course, with the scale of this fish-man tribe, this totem should not be able to reach that quality, and it is estimated that it will be made into a silver plot equipment material at most.
What Ye Qing values is not this, but the power of faith contained in the totem.
Being worshipped by a tribe of thousands of fish people for so long must contain a lot of faith power, if you get your hands on it, you can condense a few faith crystals, this is the most important harvest.
The Crystal of Faith itself is an extremely precious prop, extremely versatile, and generally an extremely rare consumable that can be used in almost any aspect.
For example, you can put it in when you mix some extremely valuable potions, which can not only increase the success rate, but also improve the quality of the potions.
You can add one when you cast equipment to improve the quality of your equipment and get some extra attributes.
For example, adding faith crystals when enchanting can increase the success rate and effect of enchantment, in fact, faith crystals themselves are also an enchantment material, which does not need to be disassembled or refined, and can be directly used as an enchantment material.
Of course, having said that, no one actually enchants this kind of thing, it's a waste.
In addition, the Faith Crystal is also a hard currency in the space, which can be used for trading, and is generally used in extremely high-end transactions.
For example, mythic or golden story equipment or some special items can be traded, which can be traded with faith crystals or other precious items.
