Chapter Fifty-Eight: Ice Worms
Sure enough, Xi immediately frowned and looked over and said:
"How is it possible? The purpose of medical skills is to save people, and the purpose of improving combat effectiveness is to kill people, these two things are completely opposite, where can the situation you said be possible?"
Du Yuqi said:
"Aren't you interested in my medical skills? and ask me to treat you? Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½β
Xi said lightly:
"I like milk, do I need to have a cow at home, do I like eggs, do I need to feed a few chickens?"
Xi usually doesn't like to talk much, but Du Yuqi didn't expect that she either didn't speak, and when she opened her mouth, her style of speech was so sharp, she didn't expect that she would be accidentally bypassed, and immediately forcibly pulled the topic back:
"Saving people and killing people is one thing, and you are also experienced in a hundred battles, so you must know that you can't slam your throat when you fight, right?"
Xi said very simply:
"Of course, that's where the key points are. β
Du Yuqi smiled:
"yes, so why is this the point?"
Xi obviously didn't expect Du Yuqi to ask this question, so he was stunned and said:
"Because you can't breathe when you are beaten. β
Du Yuqi snapped his fingers and said:
"Very good, then the question is, why does it not make people breathless when you hit your arm, but not in the chest?"
Xi couldn't answer this time, Du Yuqi looked at her and said seriously:
"This is just the beginning, the human body is actually more complex and sophisticated than any machine, the premise of the medical skills I have learned is to understand the structure of the human body, and know why the human body produces dizziness, coughing, vomiting, suffocation and other physiological reactions to the root cause, so that you can be targeted for treatment. Of course, on the other hand, it is also easier and more direct to carry out targeted destruction! Make your attacks more effective!"
After listening to Du Yuqi's words, Xi could see that he didn't understand very well, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was still very reasonable, so he said very happily:
"Well, since you say so, then I'll help too. β
After finally getting two assistants, Du Yuqi finally started work, and at this time there were already four or five wounded people who were sent over, so Du Yuqi went directly to work.
Fortunately, the weather was cold at this time, and the temperature was below zero, so the wound was not easy to infect, and the wounded were all fighters with super physique, so Du Yuqi also saved a lot of operating procedures, and finally there were alchemy potions and magic to finish, so the treatment of the wounded was also very fast.
In the process of treatment, Du Yuqi instructed his two assistants on the one hand, and inadvertently asked the wounded some seemingly ordinary questions, his face became more and more serious, and when he had a chance to rest halfway, he whispered to Xi next to him;
"Looks like there's a big problem in the Templar. β
Xi frowned and said:
"How?"
Du Yuqi said:
"According to some intelligence analysis obtained so far, the Minsk Sanctuary originally had the advantage of the home enchantment, and the skill consumption of the divine system was halved, and the effect was doubled------ but now the advantage of the home enchantment is obviously slowly weakening, and now it should be weakened by at least half, which should be the reason why the Bantu clan suddenly moved, and even those magic traps and magic circles directly used human lives to force a breakthrough!"
Xi suddenly said:
"Even if we can't hold it here, as long as we can hold out until dark, then we will have a way out by relying on the night vision device you took out. β
Du Yuqi smiled bitterly:
"It's not hard for me to get out, the problem is that if I leave the protection of the Templar, what will I do with this little kid of Count Ratnest? I will be killed by the other party's blood curse in a few minutes, and now I and the cathedral are both in a situation of loss and glory...... What's more, as long as there are still wounded people sent in now, then it's fine, but once there are no wounded people sent over, it's bad. β
At this time, every time I brought two boxes of lunch to the two of them, I happened to hear Du Yuqi's bad words, so he said:
"Why is it bad if there are no wounded to be delivered?"
Du Yuqi sighed:
"If I am the commander of the Bantu tribe, after confirming that the barrier on this side of the Minsk Cathedral is indeed weakening, of course I will not send troops while the barrier can still play a role!
After listening to Du Yuqi's words, he was stunned, and then said:
"But how can the other party be sure that this barrier will continue to weaken, and if this is only a temporary situation, then won't this commander fail to seize the great opportunity?"
Du Yuqi smiled and said:
"You have a point, but war must not be separated from the rest of the factors, but must be taken together. As far as the current situation is concerned, the invasion of the Minsk Sanctuary should be the will of the mysterious organization, and the Bantu are only the party hired by the mysterious organization, and even their internal opinions may not be unified, in this case, the Bantu must put the reduction of casualties in the first place, and the fighting spirit may not be strong, so as long as any proposal related to the preservation of the Bantu people's own strength can get most of the support. β
Sure enough, just as Du Yuqi guessed, the offensive of the Bantu tribe began to slowly exhaust, and the situation on the battlefield slowly changed from the one-sided attack of the Bantu tribe to a tug-of-war, and then the two sides began to confront each other again, and then entered the link of cleaning up the battlefield.
Taking this opportunity, Du Yuqi said that he wanted to go to the front line of the battle to see, at this time, with the help of alchemy potions and divine arts, he had saved at least thirty or forty wounded, and his right to speak was increasing day by day, so his reasonable requirements would be satisfied, so he took Xi and the others to the battlefield in the west.
Soon, a cadre of people stood on the top of the parapet, it is said that this was the main attack point of the Bantu people before, you can see the flat ground in front of you spread, extending to a distance of two or three hundred meters, there should have been a house or something nearby, but at this time there are only ruins left, dogs and teeth are scattered on this land, there are traces of war everywhere, it is as if they have been bombarded by artillery fire in modern warfare, these innocent buildings should be in the tug-of-war between the two sides, and the white-knuckle battle was tragically damagedγ
At this time, the two sides should have made an agreement not to attack each other, and they were both carrying the wounded or corpses towards their headquarters, Du Yuqi roughly counted, and it seemed that the casualties on the Bantu side were heavier.
But strictly speaking, these dead and wounded include a lot of reformed warriors, as well as beasts raised by the beast tamers of the Bantu tribe, which can be said to be consumables of the war, and they will not hurt their muscles and bones at all.
However, there is no cannon fodder on the Minsk Cathedral------ or strictly speaking, the cannon fodder is already dead, so the dead are either paladins or ascetics and other mainstays, these people are loyal to the Templar, and they are the mainstay themselves, and it takes a lot of effort to cultivate one in the Templar.
If you put it more strictly, every time someone dies on this side of the Templar at this time, there is no one less to replenish, as if a bone has been broken, it can be said that it is painful, even if it is exchanged for a five-to-one, or even eight-to-one battle loss ratio, it is a big loss and a special loss.
At this time, Dui Ze suddenly said:
"You see there's something wrong on the battlefield. β
Hearing him say this, the people immediately looked at each other, and after a long pause, they said:
"You mean, ice on the ground?"
Dui Ze Dao:
"Yes, if I'm not mistaken, there hasn't been any significant precipitation in the last three days, then the ice on the ground is very wrong. β
After hearing what Du Ze said, everyone looked towards the ground in unison.
Sure enough, I saw that the ice on the ground suddenly showed a very peculiar form, from the side close to the ice and snow blockade, a layer of light cyan thin ice spread over, clinging to the ground, at a glance, there was a feeling of boundlessness, as if a layer of light cyan ocean was wandering.
On the ground near the Minsk Sanctuary, most of the area is clean, and even if there is ice, there are only a few pieces, which is a stark contrast between the two.
After realizing this, Yuki first frowned, and then gently pressed his hand on the guardrail next to him, and the whole person jumped down from it.
The height of this parapet wall would definitely be broken for ordinary people to fall down, but it must be difficult, I saw her come to the ground covered by light cyan thin ice, and after walking a few steps on it, she frowned, and then spit out two words:
"Home!"
At this time, the rest of the people also followed, and when they stood on this pale cyan thin ice, they immediately understood the meaning of Xi's words.
It turned out that when they stood on the thin ice, they immediately felt that their feet were extremely slippery, and they had to be very careful when walking, otherwise they would have to be careful about slipping.
This kind of thing seems to be a trivial matter, but in fact, it is definitely a fatal thing in actual combat! Especially for the paladin wearing plate armor, it is completely like a steel can, once he loses his balance and falls, then it is extremely difficult to get up, if it is okay in normal times, once such a mistake occurs on the battlefield, it is enough for this person to die a hundred times!
At the same time, even with shoes on, you can feel a biting chill emanating from under the ice on the soles of your feet, and it doesn't take long for your feet to freeze completely.
The priest who led them here was also deeply moved:
"That's right, the place covered by this blue barrier is the home of the Bantu clan. β
Du Yuqi muttered:
"The name of this ice layer is the Azure Enchantment?"
The priest nodded, and said indignantly:
"That's right, it is said that this blue enchantment is cast by the strong people in the Bantu clan, it is very strong, after our people stand up, it is not only the problem you felt before, but also invisibly reduce their own ice resistance, on the contrary, after the people of the Bantu clan stand up, their own movement speed will be significantly increased, and the spells of the ice system will have corresponding bonuses-------- more importantly, hostile enchantments cannot coexist, so every time the blue enchantment covers one meter more towards this side, our sacred enchantment will be eroded by one meterοΌβ
And just as he was talking, the ice next to him suddenly burst open! This was originally the ruins of a house, and suddenly wood and stone mixed with ice chips flew everywhere, hitting people's faces and causing pain.
If it were an ordinary person, this sharp ice chip would spin and fly, and I am afraid that as soon as it falls on the person, it will be a terrible bloody wound, as if it is a blade cutting through, once it falls on the eyes and throat, it will die directly.
Immediately after, two huge ice worms emerged from the ruins!
The two ice insects resemble centipedes, with flat torsos but not as many feet, and ice-blue shells with long tan hair growing on either side of the shell.
They are divided into one large and one small, their width is at least two meters, as soon as they are exposed to the ground, although only half of their bodies are stretched out of the ground, they are also two stories high, and the mouthparts of their heads have two sharp fangs, and after they appear, bursts of blue-white ice mist erupt from them, and the priest who led the way didn't have time to react at all, and was directly frozen into a light blue ice sculpture!
Immediately afterwards, another smaller ice worm leaned down and hit the ice sculpture with its head, which was also their hunting method, and the larger ice worm was a female, which was responsible for spitting ice mist to freeze its prey.
The reason why the male ice worm is smaller is because its carapace is thicker, the defense is higher, and the fangs are sharper, if the mist of the female ice worm can freeze the prey, then it is responsible for crushing the prey, if it is just to slow down the prey, then it will use its fangs to pierce through and pick off the enemy.
This ice insect is a female and a male, and the fighting style is also close and far, which can be said to complement each other.
However, at this time, although Xi was thirty meters away from the priest, he was the first to react, and he swept over suddenly, and then let out a clear "duh"!
Suddenly, at this moment, a light golden giant shield was revealed, which was the qigong master's signature skill: Nian Qi Cover! Before this thing was broken, if the outside was turned upside down, the people inside would not suffer any harm. (To be continued.) )
