Chapter 124: Production and Combat
Absinthe, as the most admired student of the white wolf, has the most rune knowledge and the heaviest task, the rune equipment orders from the three kingdoms are theoretically evenly distributed to the five foxes, but in practice absinthe does more, and the ability of other students is not as strong as him, so absinthe often has to take on more than 20% of the work, and after completing his own part of the work, he has to assist others to complete the task.
Although he does more work than others, and there is no so-called income at all, but Absinthe is still hard-working, without complaints, he is now a bent on avenging the dead Qingyue, and he also knows that it is impossible to defeat the human army with his own strength, and now the only one who can give him hope is the white wolf, and he will do things for the white wolf wholeheartedly.
"You say, how did Teacher White Wolf come up with such an elaborate rune array? I'm afraid I won't be able to think of these circuits for the rest of my life. During the break after eating, the fox named Asuka couldn't help but ask the question.
"After all, he is a person who has been blessed by the fox god, and even our fox village's village protection maze has followed him here, which means that the fox god has recognized him, how can a person who has been approved by the fox god be ordinary?" replied the fox named Mushroom.
The reason why they can't figure it out is understandable, the white wolf didn't teach them his knowledge in a systematic way, and without this systematic way of thinking, then it would be difficult to conceive a rune circle by himself.
They who don't have basic programming cultivation can only use the fox god to explain everything at this moment, in fact, the white wolf is not a genius, he just has mastered the way of thinking of a genius.
"I don't know when we'll be back to the surface," Asuka sighed, leaning against the stone.
It was evident that he was still uncomfortable with living underground, and several other foxes agreed with him, the underground world was too oppressive for these creatures living on the surface, and these foxes now missed the blue sky very much.
"Didn't the teacher say that when we have accumulated enough strength, we will be able to return to the surface, but I don't know how much strength we have to accumulate to be enough. Absinthe pondered for a moment and replied.
"We must at least have the strength to defeat that human army, do you think we can do this with our current strength?" Mushroom shook his head, his meaning was obvious, that is, their current strength was still too weak to support a war against the Human Empire.
The other foxes were silent, they were not stupid, and they had figured out that they had to endure at this moment.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I feel that our current efforts to depict rune circles are increasing our strength. In the end, it was Absinthe who made his concluding remarks, and he took out a knife and carved it on the wall.
"Carved runes→ sell utensils→ buy back minerals→ increase the strength of your territory. It is worth mentioning that what he portrayed was the Chinese character taught to him by the white wolf, and Absinthe likes this kind of writing very much, because it is concise and concise, and the requirements for grammar are not as harsh as Wanlingwen, although there are more strokes for each word, but such a small shortcoming is completely within the acceptable range of absinthe.
Finally, absinthe draws a large arrow that points from the end of the string to the beginning of the sentence.
"This is a cycle, every time we sell rune equipment, we will be able to get more production materials from those three countries to make rune equipment, every time this cycle is completed, our strength will increase by one point, this is called.... Right... The primitive accumulation of capital. Absinthe pointed to the string of sentences on the wall and explained it to several of his classmates.
"Actually... I didn't come up with these things, it was Mr. White Wolf who told me that the so-called means of production refer to mudstone and iron ore, and the more we trade with these three countries, the stronger we can become, so we must work hard to produce rune equipment. When Absinthe said this, he couldn't help but clench his fists, listening to others talk about knowledge and telling others to others was really two completely different feelings.
If you can tell the knowledge to others, it means in a sense that you have really digested, understood and absorbed this knowledge, and you no longer know half of it as before.
Absinthe felt that he had finally figured out what the white wolf was doing, and his mood became very good, and at the same time, he decided to immediately devote himself to the production of rune equipment, no longer resting, and stood up and went to the studio.
The other foxes listened to Absinthe's words and thought about it, after all, they are not goblins, but foxes with developed brains and higher intelligence than ordinary humans, although the logical chain of Absinthe they talked about made them still a little confused, but the general meaning can still be understood, seeing that Absinthe rushed to carve runes, they didn't have the mood to continue to rest, and they devoted themselves to the production of rune instruments with him.
The white wolf didn't know that the foxes were talking about him, he only knew that he was currently in a great crisis, and the golden worm clearly didn't want him to leave, and even wanted to eat him.
The white wolf didn't bother to bother with it, since you want to take advantage of me, then use your strength to speak, without saying a word, it was five wind blades, and it slashed straight towards the worm.
The worm sensed the incoming wind blade, and hurriedly raised a thick earthen wall in front of him, although the speed of the wind blade was extremely fast, but the distance between the white wolf and the worm was relatively far after all, only one wind blade slashed at the worm before the earth wall rose, and the remaining few were cut on the earthen wall, leaving a few deep traces.
The golden worm that was slashed by the wind blade felt the pain, roared angrily, and writhed a few times before burrowing into the ground and disappearing in front of the white wolf's eyes.
The white wolf saw the worm burrowing into the ground, and understood that vision no longer worked at this time, so he closed his eyes and sensed it, the movement of the worm in the soil was silent, and there was no sense of vibration at all, obviously because of the use of earth element magic, the white wolf simply gave up the attempt to judge the direction of the worm through the sense of vibration, and instead used the earth element for sensing.
"Mr. Worm, don't use the same tactic twice, or you'll be seen," said the White Wolf mockingly, sensing the location of the Golden Worm, which was moving towards the top of his head at a breakneck speed.
The white wolf pretended not to notice and stood there without moving, and the golden worm, thinking that he had succeeded, got out of the dirt above the white wolf's head and pounced on the white wolf.
The Golden Worm was greeted by a storm of elemental missiles, fireballs, thunderstorms, ice picks and other means of attack, flying from the bottom up towards the worm's gaping jaw.
Some of these elemental missiles hit the worm's spiral mouthparts, others flew down the throat into its stomach, the thunderstorm exploded in the worm's stomach pouch, and the shockwave swelled in its abdomen, and the white wolf rolled on a lazy donkey, avoiding the worms falling overhead.
The worm pounced in the air, and suffered a big loss, it didn't expect the white wolf to be able to determine its location at first, it seemed to start going crazy, and no longer thought about burrowing into the ground to play any tactics, and directly shook its huge body and pressed towards the white wolf.
Naturally, it was impossible for the white wolf to sit still, and it was a few elemental missiles that shook his hand, and he deftly avoided the weight of the worm.
However, what happened next made the white wolf's pupils shrink, and the elemental missile he bombarded the worm did not work at all, and a grid-like orange pattern appeared where the missile hit, and the impact of the missile was completely resisted by this layer of orange lines.
"Tsk... What the hell is this?..... "The white wolf pursed his lips, the energy he released just now is really not small, with his current elemental storage rune, he can only release more than twenty missile attacks of this strength, but he didn't expect this high-intensity attack to be completely defended by worms.
The worm did not stop attacking, and pressed towards the white wave one after another, and the surface of its skin oozed brown mucus, giving off a rancid smell, and every time the worm shook itself, this disgusting mucus would splash everywhere.
The mucus is strongly corrosive, except for the flesh of the worm, everything else that touches this liquid is melting at a speed visible to the naked eye, the white wolf is careless, and a few drops of this liquid are also splashed on his right arm, at this time it hurts, the white wolf feels that something is ablating his skin.
Looking down at the place where the liquid had been splashed on his arm, the white hair had almost corroded and turned black, and the flesh-colored skin was exposed, but the mucus still did not stop, clinging to his skin like a maggot on the tarsal bone, giving people the feeling of desperately trying to get in.
The white wolf dodged while taking a handful of soil, and wiped the slime off his arm through the soil, seeing these clods of soil that were really dissolving, the white wolf was afraid for a while, who knew if there was a virus in these corrosive liquids, he didn't want this thing to enter his body.
"High defense, huh? Then I'll give you a big one!" Finding that his attack was completely ineffective, and was splashed with disgusting corrosive liquid, the white wolf was also on fire, gritted his teeth, and rolled to dodge the worms that smashed over, while running the link runes in his body, and the elements in the stored runes were transformed into one energy stream after another under the effect of the output runes.
Five huge elemental orbs gradually appeared around the white wolf, they were different colors, they were red, blue, brown, green, and gold, but all of them exuded amazing energy.
