5. Foothold Chapter 181: A Dangerous Dark Realm
Donald and the others divided into two routes, and soon came to the front of the sub-monster territory separately. The owls and gargoyles were now being ordered by Donald, the master, to hide outside the monster's territory.
"This is it!"
Sensing the aura of passers-by lurking ahead, Donald and the two glanced at each other, understanding each other's intentions but not stopping.
Hearing Donald's words, Todd unhooked the mace, the weapon that had been hanging from his waist. This is a common favorite weapon among priests, and they are generally as good as lower-ranking warriors in melee combat when physically stronger than mages, and the mace with divine magic attached to it also acts as a magical equipment such as mage staffs.
When the two of them arrived at the ambush point, three figures suddenly burst out of the dark corner, two of them killing Thord, and the other was Donald.
The Middle Eastern priest was not in the slightest confusion, as if he had attacked many ferocious monsters, but a docile house dog, only to see a few characters spit out of his mouth, and with a blow of the mace in his hand, an invisible bō pattern shrouded in the direction of the two attackers.
Two mixed screams rang out, and then two more bangs, and before the two fierce attackers could pounce on the middle-aged priest, they screamed and fell to the ground, and after a few struggles, they convulsed and died.
And there was only one attacker on Donald's side, and he was instantly dealt with by one of his frost novas.
The monster that attacked them was obviously not very strong, and after being hit by the frost nova, it immediately turned into an ice sculpture covered in frost, and Donald got closer to take a look, and found that it was a monster about ten feet long with a head and tail, and an estimated nine feet tall when standing.
The monster has small eyes and a sharp beak. The firstborn is very much like a vulture, but the body is like a beetle, and the whole body is covered with thick bone armor, this carapace gives it a good physical defense, but whether it is Thord's bō attack or Donald's frost damage, it is the ability to act on the inside of the body, so their good defensive carapace basically does not play a role.
Donald looked at the two monsters Thord had dealt with, and found that they had completely lost their lives, and blood was spilling from their mouths, noses, ears.
He knew that Todd was using a low-level magic called Sudden Sound Bō, which could inflict a burst of sound damage on creatures within a radius of ten feet, and depending on the strength of the spell, some resistant creatures would be stunned, nauseous, and shocked, while creatures with sensitive sounds would be severely damaged. Both monsters' brains were obviously shattered by the sound of bō, and they lost their ability to move all of a sudden.
However, all underground creatures rely on their keen sense of hearing, touch, and other senses to detect the outside world, unlike the surface world, and most of them rely on sight. Therefore, this sound bō spell is undoubtedly very lethal to these keenly underground creatures.
The middle-aged priest also walked over to take a look, and then said: "This is a dreadclaw, an underground creature that is good at sneak attacks and ambushes, known as underground killers, generally live in caves in the underground world with good water sources or growing edible fungi, they are social creatures, generally there may be five to twenty in a nest, and there may be several nests gathered together, if that's the case, it's more troublesome for me to move on!" Because this dreadclaw monster has a strong sense of territory, it will frantically attack any creature that invades their territory, and it is basically immortal!" Donald nodded as well, "It's a nuisance, I don't want to waste time cleaning up these monsters." Why don't we join forces to deal with these monsters and then have a round with the teacher?" Soder agreed, and then said, "Then I will be responsible for restricting their activities, and you will be responsible for relieving Lou as soon as possible!"
After the two of them had already decided, they continued to walk forward, and after Donald and they invaded the territory of the Dreadclaws and were killed by four of their companions, all the other Dreadclaws became bloodthirsty and furious, hoping to tear apart the intruders with their claws and beaks.
When the first Dreadclaws attacked from the shadows of Yīn, Thord immediately unleashed the magic he had prepared.
I saw that the seven or eight dreadclaw monsters that were originally rushing suddenly stopped and looked at the middle-aged priest in a daze, as if he was a beautiful woman without clothes, and suddenly appeared in front of several drunks.
However, it is a common second-level magic attraction spell that causes all creatures within the scope of the magic to stare at the caster, losing all other abilities, but if there is any threat, the effect of the magic will be lifted.
Donald admired it in his heart, and it was indeed worthy of the elite powerhouse sent by the headquarters of the Goddess of Agriculture Church, whether it was the previous sudden sound bō or the current attraction technique, it was only a second-level divine skill, but under his skillful application, a group of monster killers with bronze primary-level strength were easily restrained to death, and basically had no power to fight back.
However, he did not hesitate at all, and took advantage of such a good opportunity to see Donald raise his hand, and the heads of the seven dreadclaw monsters bloomed with blood, and then fell weakly.
This is the spell constant solid blade he uses, creating an ultra-small force field blade through energy, flying at a speed of forty feet per second, it can attack once under normal circumstances, and if you use the spiritual power skill ear, you can go to the human head ten steps away, just like the legendary flying sword. However, this spell is just a first-level spell, the speed is not too fast, and the damage is only equivalent to an ordinary dagger, if these dreadclaw monsters can move freely, his spells may not be able to catch up with them, but these dreadclaw monsters controlled by Thord's magic are now all standing and motionless targets, as long as they mark the target force field blade with mental power, they can act according to the established trajectory, so how could Donald not hit?
It's too late, it's fast, but in just a second or two, the first batch of seven Dreadclaw monsters have been completely eliminated, even if the powerful demon is pierced through the brain, it will die no more, not to mention these Dreadclaw beasts whose strength is on the edge of bronze!
These seven monsters have just been solved, and three of them jumped out again, and Donald didn't wait for Thord to make a move this time, just a spell was released.
There was a loud roar in the passage of the cave, and the three dreadclaw monsters instantly fell to the ground like an electric shock, convulsing unnaturally.
Roar, which hits the target with a loud and high-pitched sound bō, which can ignore the opponent's cover, can deal sound bō damage of varying power depending on the caster's level, and can also deafen creatures with strong resistance to sound bō damage. Although it is only a first-level spell, it is a spell that increases its power as the caster's strength increases, just like spells such as mage armor and arcane missiles.
With Donald's current mage level in the middle of silver, these three dreadclaw monsters are also underground creatures restrained by sound bō spells, and now that their brain-related skills have been damaged, they are not far from death.
Compared to Thord's proficiency in experience and divine unleashing, Donald's grasp of the battle situation and his ability to learn also shook Thord's heart as a well-informed church elite.
He just limited the monster's movements, and the other party was able to find the most suitable spell to solve them, and he only used the sudden sound bō once, and the other party could learn from it the general weakness of the underground creatures and use the sound bō spell to kill the enemy!
Originally, he didn't care about a rural nobleman in a remote place, and thought that Donald was the kind of aristocratic mage who was bent on pursuing rank and ignoring skills, and relying on external forces to forcibly promote him, but through the performance of these two rounds of battles, he knew that this one was definitely not the kind of straw bag who had no power and didn't know how to use it.
In fact, if Donald hadn't obtained the god and had gone through two times of accelerated cultivation, his ability would have been far from being as calm and unhurried as he is today, as if he had been practiced thousands of times.
Especially after these two hundred-fold time of practice, although the outside world is only a short three days, but in the house of time, Donald has spent nearly a year, the long-term practice has made his mastery of spells more flexible and wishful, the spells that needed to be prepared in advance in the past are now at hand, the chanting and release time of the spell are just right, and even the casting time has been reduced a lot, as if yín has been immersed in the old mage for decades.
This is where the power of the god lies, all creatures with gods can gain comprehension of the laws from them, and the benefits of absorbing the true gods like Donald have been greater for a long time, and by absorbing the bequest of the original owner of the gods, he can grow and become stronger at a speed of thousands of times faster than ordinary professionals.
The god xìng is a higher force based on the existence of the spirit, although the origin of the evil god, although the god xìng has lost consciousness and memory, many instincts and knowledge and perceptions are still preserved in it, even if it is differentiated into a thousandth of a trace, it contains not something that Donald can digest for a while, at least it will take a few more years to basically fully grasp it.
However, with an anti-heaven existence like the House of Time, this time can be greatly saved, and three years of light is only equivalent to ten days in the main material realm, as long as Donald is willing to consume divine power, it can be done completely.
However, long-term retreat practice also needs to be relaxed, and one relaxation is the way of civil and martial arts. Therefore, Donald was not in a hurry, this time he still felt the potential crisis, so he temporarily retreated for a hundred days and successfully broke through to the silver realm.
Aside from Thord's shock at Donald's talent and strength, the two of them briefly searched through the nearby cave passages, until they found no other Dreadclaw monsters, and then returned to the position where they had just fought.
"This place is cleared, I'll let the minions continue to poke down first, and then get in touch with the teacher!"
As he spoke, he ordered the previous summons that were hiding behind him to rush towards him, and then summoned a few more to make up the numbers, and ordered them to continue deep into the ground and explore the passage.
"I'll see how Wood is going!"
As he spoke, the middle-aged priest began to cast a magic spell, condensing a light and shadow in front of them, and the characters who appeared in it were none other than Messer and the other three in the other group. !。
