Chapter 292: The Light of Judgment
He used the talisman left by his brother to save the day, but the threat of the enemy did not disappear.
The Plague Star spewed out a thick black mist, which slammed into the outer wall of the barrier, causing the barrier to shake.
After gaining the control of the enchantment, Zhou Lu also figured out what this energy field that protected him was. As a protective measure that only appears in times of crisis, this barrier is not triggered on weekdays; But after appearing, it is able to withstand the enemy's attack in a short time. Even so, the barrier's defenses are not invincible. For now, at least, the Plague Star's attacks have had an impact on the enchantment.
After hearing Zhou Lu's words, the superpower behind him woke up like a dream, and hurriedly picked up his weapon and prepared to start attacking. One after another lasers shot out, and the 'Plague Star' outside the barrier was still spewing black mist, and it was immediately penetrated by several laser beams. As a standard equipment, this laser weapon has the function of automatic aiming; As soon as Zhou Lu's words fell, these laser beams fell on the body of the 'Plague Star'.
The laser's attack had a severe effect on the Plague Star. The Plague Star was punched several gaps in its body, and the black mist poured out, and the Plague Star was forced to stop attacking the barrier and dispersed into black mist. Seeing that the attack was effective, everyone's spirits were lifted; It was too late to say anything, and continued to attack the black fog in the sky. The 'Plague Star' changed positions several times in succession, but could not find another suitable opportunity to attack.
Light attribute attacks are extremely damaging to it, and in addition to laser weapons, even Herrely's divine magic can deal very severe damage to it - the Church's divine magic is inherently possessed by strong light elemental attributes. Born with the ability to restrain necromancers.
Did you hold it? Look at the black fog in the sky that is getting thinner and thinner. Zhou Lu breathed a sigh of relief. And yet at this moment. One of the superpowers shouted, "Behind, it's in the back!" ”
Looking back, Zhou Lu saw the 'Plague Star' that had condensed in the rear. Because of the protection of the enchantment and the weakness of the opponent's fear of light, Zhou Lu was not very nervous in the battle. However, before she could react, the Plague Star suddenly acted in an unexpected way.
The black mist gradually spread, but this time, the body of the 'Plague Star' did not disappear with the black mist. The black feathers of the 'Plague Star' turned into a black mist and spread out, and its original body. It also appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
Through the increasingly dense black mist, everyone saw a shriveled skeleton, except for the pupils that still glowed with a dangerous red light, the body of the 'Plague Star' was like the skeleton of a bird that had been dead for many years. Seeing that it revealed its body, Zhou Lu hurriedly said:
"Quick, attack now!"
Although these superpowers present are not experienced in a hundred battles, in such a situation, they will naturally not let the opportunity slip away in vain. However, the black mist that had escaped blocked the front of the Plague Star, so thick that it could barely dissolve, and several lasers shot in. but it was blocked by the black mist; The black fog is getting thicker and thicker, and it is completely impossible to see whether the attack just now has taken effect or not.
"Dead?"
A superpowered person shouted. But Zhou Lu had some bad premonitions in his heart. The Plague Star's main body was no longer visible as the black fog gradually solidified, and the black mist formed by its feathers condensed into a black oppressive cloud in front of the barrier. Faintly visible in the dark clouds, Zhou Lu suddenly thought of the scene in the game.
'Plague Star' is the name of the monster in the game, but it is not limited to one individual. The 'Plague Star' in the game is also a giant bird, although it does not have a shrouded black mist, but in battle, it often uses a powerful area of magic magic - summoning a ring magic circle that can surround itself, which can not only block the player's attacks, but also shoot some energy waves to attack. Zhou Lu still remembered the image and appearance of this magic array, and in the black mist in front of him, wasn't the looming pattern the shape of that magic array?
Thinking of this, Zhou Lu couldn't help frowning and shouted, "Don't stop, keep shooting!" ”
The laser collided with the magic in the black mist, but this time it didn't damage the monster as before. The black fog grew thicker and thicker, condensing like a wall; All the attacks seemed to shoot at a layer of water, and as the faintly discernible ripples gradually spread, they were neutralized by the black fog and quickly disappeared.
And the magic array in the black mist has also begun to officially operate. Some black bursting balls shot out of the black mist, causing the outer walls of the barrier to shake.
Looking at this attack, Zhou Lu's heart moved, and before he could speak, he heard Herelli beside him say: "Legend has it that this monster can summon an invulnerable plague wall......
"yes, I remembered, too." Zhou Lu said, "We must use a strong enough attack to break his magic array with one blow. Otherwise, the barrier will be broken. ”
In the game, the magic circle of the 'Plague Star' is also stored in zài. Just now, Zhou Lu thought of this setting - when the player challenged, he must use a strong enough skill to break through the magic array and continue to fight. Thinking of this, Zhou Lu found his laser sword. There is no doubt that the laser sword should be able to break through this magic array, but after Zhou Lu stabbed the laser sword into the monster's chest just now, the laser sword disappeared.
Maybe it was left on the ground? Zhou Lu was about to go down to look for it, but at this moment, Herelli suddenly said:
"If I use the Light of Judgment, I should be able to break down the Plague Wall......"
The core skill of the Inquisitor of the Light of Judgment, although not very powerful, has a light attribute effect, which may be a miracle effect at this time. Zhou Lu didn't remember the setting in the game very clearly, so he wasn't sure whether this magic technique would be effective or not, so he had to say:
"Then let's try it!"
That being said, looking at Herelli's embarrassed expression, Zhou Lu also knew that there was no drama. This skill is a trial skill, and Herelli has not successfully changed classes yet, so it is not easy to use it at such a critical juncture. So to speak. Zhou Lu took two superpowers to the forest below and began to look for the lightsaber that had just been lost; And the attack outside the enchantment. It also began to get more and more violent.
The enemy's attack is very powerful. With one explosion after another, the energy of the amulet enchantment flowed rapidly. Zhou Lu was anxious, and after searching for a long time, he found his laser sword in the grass on the ground; However, because of the battle just now, the laser sword has been damaged. The switch was pressed, and the cylinder exploded with a few sparks before it became unresponsive. And the idea of using a laser sword to destroy the magic array was just in vain.
Looking at the damaged laser sword, Zhou Lu's heart began to become anxious. Under the continuous attacks, the energy loss of the enchantment has been more than half; However, it is impossible to find a suitable way to deal with it; Zhou Lu couldn't help but feel a little confused in her heart.
That's when it happened. A few superpowered people around him shouted, "Reinforcements are coming!" Look over there! ”
Zhou Lu followed the sound and saw that there seemed to be a fire outside the forest.
As my brother said, reinforcements are coming. I just encountered some enemies over there, but it shouldn't be too long. Seeing the traces of the battle over there, Zhou Lu perked up. beckoned the others around him to start attacking again, but as time passed, the remaining energy of the barrier became less and less. The battle over there didn't mean to end, but Zhou Lu's talisman couldn't last a few minutes. The light curtain of the enchantment is getting dimmer and dimmer, and it is already a matter of time before it shatters.
The attack on the magic array in front of them is still ongoing. But anyone with a discerning eye can see that such an attack is unlikely to be effective.
And Zhou Lu's mood. It also gradually sank.
This time, the monster seems to have come specifically for itself. This monster's abilities are above itself in every aspect, and even if you know its photophobia, it is difficult to make any decent attacks. Thinking of this, Zhou Lu gritted his teeth, turned his head and said to everyone:
"The enchantment is almost untenable, I'll lead it away later, you guys run."
"No," Herreli turned pale and shook her head. It seemed that he wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything.
"Otherwise, I won't be able to leave, and my enchantment won't last long!"
Zhou Lu said, forcibly squeezing everyone out of the enchantment. Some superpowers also reacted quickly, looking at Zhou Lu's appearance, they also knew that the current situation was not good, so they shouted "I'll call for reinforcements" and went in the direction of reinforcements; However, Hallery stubbornly refused to go away, bypassed the barrier, and continued to work the other side to use her magic to attack the magic circle. Ordinary magic obviously didn't work very well, and Halley tried to use the 'Light of Judgment' that she hadn't learned yet.
The voice of the chant of magic rang out from her mouth, and Herelli skillfully drew an intricate rune with her wand. With her delicate casting movements, golden streaks began to swirl around her, but after a critical moment, a mistake occurred, and this time the cast failed.
Zhou Lu was flustered and wanted to drive her away; However, looking at Herelli's failed spell casting action, she still reflexively shouted:
"Stupid, the second syllable needs to be accelerated by magic!"
With a shake of the staff, the magic was completely shattered. Unwilling to give up, Herelli casts another spell; However, because of his anxiety, before he could start working the magic, he failed because of a syllable error.
"I can......'t do it," Herelli put her hands on the red outer wall of the enchantment, and shouted to Zhou Lu in the enchantment, "You can cast a spell for me, if the two of us do it, we will definitely be able to!" ”
"Don't make a fuss, let's go!"
"I mean really," Herelli shouted to Zhou Lu in the enchantment, "Let's try one last time, I don't want to give up like this......"
Another round of black mist exploded, and Zhou Lu's enchantment was crumbling, and it seemed that it would not be able to hold it anymore. The impending danger to his life made Zhou Lu lose his mind, listening to Herelli's words, Zhou Lu couldn't help but ask: "How can a spell be cast by two people......"
"Give it a try, one last time!" Herelli begged, and the barrier had opened. Is this an agreement? Herelli hurriedly rushed into the enchantment and raised her wand, "There must still be a chance, as long as I can use the 'Judgment Light', I will definitely be able to break its magic array!" ”
Seeing that Herelli had already started casting spells, Zhou Lu hurriedly stepped forward and assisted her in using her magic skills. The magic soon began to work, but Herelli, who was only singing, was completely unable to transmit magic and faith to Zhou Lu's hands. Zhou Lu skillfully drew the corresponding magic patterns. But this kind of magic that is not like four. There is not even a chance of failure at all - it has just begun. It quickly failed.
What am I doing here?
Zhou Lu was so anxious that she was about to cry. The enchantment is getting weaker and weaker, and once it is broken, he will directly face the further pursuit of monsters. And what are you doing now? The magic that Herelli was so obsessed with trying to perform was really just one of the Inquisitor's introductory techniques; It's practical, but it's not a powerful skill in nature. Even if it succeeds, it is unknown whether it can destroy the magic array; And his own barrier is about to shatter, even if he can destroy the 'Plague Wall', he still needs to find a way to deal with the next battle.
However, other than that. Zhou Lu couldn't think of any other ideas.
Herelli was still singing obsessively, wasting in vain her already modest mana. Vaguely, Zhou Lu also felt the brilliance of faith generated from the depths of her heart. What else can be done? Suddenly, Zhou Lu remembered the method he had thought of a long time ago to improve his strength.
Use otherworldly magic techniques to create more powerful skills.
The idea seems beautiful, but in fact it is completely impossible to accomplish. Different power systems and different skills for using abilities; Zhou Lu himself does not have the necessary beliefs to perform magic, and second, he does not have the relevant ability to adapt to the otherworldly magic system, and it is completely impossible to use this technique. In addition, Zhou Lu did not have too strong an urgent idea of improving the level of combat power, and this idea had been forgotten by Zhou Lu for a long time. But now, it has become the only clue to Zhou Lu's rescue. Although it has long proven impossible to achieve. But looking at it now, it doesn't seem impossible.
Harelli persisted in chanting. Faith is not enough to use her; If you don't have magic, it seems that you can use hers as well. That's what Zhou Lu did just now, but it didn't work. It is not a simple matter to use other people's magic to cast magic skills, and in desperation, Zhou Lu gritted his teeth, re-condensed a magic wand, and then used his own magic power to start trying.
The first attempt failed without any suspense. However, in the process of trying, Zhou Lu also unexpectedly discovered the feasibility of this idea - although he was using his own magic, if the center of magic was adjusted to Herelli, it seemed that something similar to belief could be imported into the process of magic casting. It's just that this magic of his own is too active in nature, so he failed in the end.
Anyway, it was already in this paradoxical state, and Zhou Lu simply changed his way of casting the spell - after restarting the magic, Zhou Lu used the 'Nebula Chain' to start the magic casting process. The nature of the 'Nebula Chain' is relatively stable, and although it consumes more mana than direct casting, it can't be taken care of too much at this time.
The Plague Star's attacks continued, and within the barrier, the golden chains were drawing huge magical patterns in a strange and mysterious trajectory. With a crisp cracking sound, the barrier unfolded by the amulet was broken by the black mist. Helerie was startled and opened her eyes, and what she saw was such a scene—huge golden lines covered all the space in front of her, and even the menacing black mist was mostly obscured.
"Don't get distracted!"
Noticing that Herelli was a little distracted, Zhou Lu in front of her reminded him sharply. Herelli quickly calmed down and continued to sing.
I don't know what's next?
It seemed as if a bright light had exploded in front of her eyes, and even with her eyes closed, Herelli could still feel the heat and dazzling. Can't help but open her eyes again, and Herelli saw the shattered shards of chains in the sky; And a golden magic array appeared directly in the space covered by the chains.
"We made it!" Zhou Lu's happy voice came.
It was a success. After months of study, Herelli naturally recognized this as the magic circle after the 'Light of Judgment' had been successfully cast. From books, demonstrations, and the magic array for learning, Harelli had seen this magic many times, but not once it was as large and dazzling as it was today—and then, a golden light shot out of the magic array, piercing into the black mist in front of her.
The golden light of the magic array gradually dissipated, only the golden light did not disappear, like the first rays of dawn piercing the night, dispelling the black fog that enveloped half of the sky. A hoarse crunch came from the side of the black mist, and the 'Plague Star' was seen flapping its wings in the opposite direction like a plucked rooster. Half of its skeleton was charred black, and it couldn't even maintain its balance when it flew in the air.
This attack can achieve such an effect, even the user Zhou Lu finds it incredible. However, seeing the defeated enemy, Zhou Lu had no intention of letting go of this opportunity; Swinging his wand, he rushed over, ready to deliver the final blow. However, before he could fly out, the magic power in his body suddenly emptied, and the long skirt of magic turned into golden light and suddenly disappeared, and his feet were empty, falling downward.
In the crisis, Zhou Lu didn't even think of using the 'Silver Moon Sword' to keep her in the air, but it was thanks to Herley's timely reaction that she grabbed Zhou Lu's arm in time to prevent her from falling directly. However, taking advantage of this opportunity, the 'Plague Star' has also flown away. Skirting a large tree, he landed in the forest below. (To be continued......)
