Chapter 19: The Gambling Contract
Surrounded by the swarm, Richard could see the insects.
This is actually a kind of mantis with black gas all over its body, shiny and shiny, like a layer of obsidian. They buzzed and fluttered their wings, flew around the golden cart, and slammed their sharp catches in front of them. The insect arm, which was about the length of a finger, could sometimes turn into a small wind blade, and every time it shot into the barrier force field, it would cause a circle of ripples.
This kind of bug, Richard also vaguely recognized their name - the black stone mantis.
Like the Blade Locust, it is also a monster created by the El Mages.
But what appeared in front of him was not the same as the Black Wind Mantis in the record. The insect in the book is a giant insect the size of an ordinary human, and it is not these inconspicuous little beans at all.
But when Richard saw the group of little praying mantis that enveloped him like a black cloud, he found them much more terrifying than the one in the record.
Richard overheard such a scene, after a bush near his golden cart was swept by a swarm of insects, the small tree with a thick mouth seemed to have passed through a knife net, scattered in all directions. Some of the branches cut by the black stone mantis still have neat incisions exposed.
This is simply a group of flying sharp knives, which will kill when they touch it, and be injured when they are hit!
Richard looked at the surrounding barrier like a fluctuating current, and everywhere there were ripples from the impact of the Black Wind Mantis, and he was afraid that it would not be long before he could hold it out, so he hurriedly flicked the reins and ordered the five helmeted wolves to flee forward.
Because the swarm of insects gathered around and did not disperse, he was embarrassed to run all the way.
Later, even the cape and helmet, and the armor phantom formed by the elemental power to protect the whole body, the bear and the bear were all hurriedly running into the barrier force field of the Lost Moon Golden Car.
The impact of the Sword Wind Mantis Group was so terrifying that even as Violent Armored Giant Bears, they couldn't avoid it.
"You can't run, just die......"
The old man in the sky, who seemed to be a god, let out a deafening shout. Looking at Richard's futile actions, his face was full of pleasure after revenge.
The people in the wooden shells on the backs of the two giant stick insects began to sigh again, wailing that they had finally not been able to escape.
The situation seems to have been completely reversed, and even if Richard is lucky enough to defeat Darcy, he can only recover in the face of his sudden appearance of master.
There are too many differences in strength.
But at this moment, Richard was thinking about countermeasures.
Through the group of praying mantis flying like dark clouds outside the barrier force field, he yelled at the old man in the sky behind him, "What kind of ability is it to bully the small with the big? Your apprentice can see that I am just a magic apprentice, and it is worth your action against me like this? I am not afraid of making people laugh at it." ”
"Boy, save some effort, no matter how sharp your teeth are, you can't see the sun tomorrow!"
But Adel laughed for a while, and then said regretfully.
"Although it is indeed detrimental to my reputation as the 'Worm King' to deal with you like this. But whoever made you do that kind of thing, Darcy's death has nothing to do with you. If it weren't for you using the root rune to plot against him, he wouldn't have been in a hurry, and as a result, his magic power went out of control and he lost his life in vain. This bastard, I knew he wasn't a good piece of material. After death, he turned into an undead spirit, which is too embarrassing for me, and he has the eye of the magic vision. Alas, it came out again, and it was a joke ......".
Richard, who was driving away from this open field and had now arrived on the gravel road in the pine forest, was narrowing his eyes.
This old thing seems to have a face. Richard rolled his eyes and came up with another idea.
Richard turned his head and shouted behind him.
"Are you still embarrassed to say that your apprentice is out of control and is finished with uncontrolled magic, and it is my business? Now, is it interesting for you to chase and kill me like this, and play this game of bullying the small with the big? If you want me to tell me, your apprentice was not killed by me, but by you. As a magician, he actually ended up because of the loss of control of his magic, which shows that his attainments are not as good as a magic apprentice. This shows how good you are......"
"What do you bastard, I want you dead right now!"
Adele, who had very complicated emotions, was so provoked by him that he immediately recited a spell.
After two or three blinks, he waved his arm and made a throwing motion, and a spear entwined with lightning suddenly appeared in the palm of his thin hand.
Crackling, this thirty-meter-long divine weapon caused a change in the weather.
The large area of the pine forest soon became dark, for there was a large dark cloud near the ground that obscured the sun.
Richard glanced back, and his pants were about to fall off.
Arthur's Thunder Spear!
What is the identity of this old thing, even the supreme nine-ring magic of the mirror school can be summoned so easily?
Richard looked at the wind around him, and the dark clouds in the sky actually covered the sun in more than ten seconds, and he couldn't help but think that the nine-ring magic was the nine-ring magic, and the sound alone was terrifying.
He felt that he might have overused the radical method, but he suddenly came to his senses.
The running limbs of the helmeted wolves slowed down sharply, and they turned a corner, and Richard, who had brought them to the car, turned and went straight back.
Richard looked at the giant in the sky holding a thunder spear, like a god descending into the world, he suddenly stood up from his seat and yelled at it.
That's right, he is small and not worth mentioning, and he uses his mouth to fight back at the other party like a moth to a flame!
"Old thing, you're capable enough that you even summoned Thor's spear. In that case, I came back on my own initiative, and you used it to kill me! I am not afraid, master! As a magic apprentice, I feel honored to die in this level of magic. This also shows me your ability, as such a powerful magician, but you have done something wrong, and you dare not admit it. I don't think you're as good as me, a magic apprentice?"
Anyway, there is no way to escape, so it is better to play the radical general to the end.
Richard knew that he was working so hard now, and the final result might be to die a better-looking death, but he didn't hesitate!
"Come on, you stab me to death, isn't it just bullying the small? Anyway, I'm just a magic apprentice, you can easily use the magic of the nine rings, at least you are also a great magician at the level of a magic master, and killing me in this way is to give me a long face, and I will let it go." ”
"You have a kind of coming, who is afraid of whom!"
"Kill me like an ant, but old thing has to remember that you're always just an ant!"
......
Richard's words echoed in the willow forest.
Adel in the sky, several times he almost couldn't help but throw it down.
But in the end, he still took the initiative to dissipate the Thor spear in his hand, and his face was gloomy.
Seeing Richard, who was driving back and now not hiding from him, the old man shouted, "Boy, you have reminded me that I have gone too far. No matter how hateful you are, you're just a flamboyant piece of waste. Killing someone like you is indeed only going to get my hands dirty. ”
Halfway through his speech, he waved away all the gold dots that were stained outside the barrier force field of the Passing Moon Golden Car.
The group of black stone mantis suddenly dissipated.
"But letting you go like this doesn't satisfy me, you're so hateful. Just at your mouth, I have to clean you up. Do you know what happened to the last person who called me an 'old thing'?"
As soon as Richard took a breath, he heard the old bastard say this, and his heart immediately froze.
But he never thought that the other party would let him go easily.
"Then this unknown old-timer, I don't know if you have heard the story of 'Smart Richard'. I feel like there's a good section for us. At that time, the evil dragon besieged Duke Richard, and when he couldn't catch it, and didn't want to let go, he made a bet. I feel like we can make a bet like that......"
Richard recounted the prepared words in full.
At a critical moment, he couldn't help but think of this cheap ancestor with the same name as him.
"Interesting, really interesting. ”
The old man in the sky let out a burst of laughter when he heard this suggestion.
The famous insect king squinted his eyes at Richard, who was standing on the golden cart below, "I remember that in that story, the gamble of the dragon Bertelem was to have the fledgling Duke Richard deal with an earth giant that he summoned with the magic of the six rings. I'm not going to bully you here, aren't you a magic apprentice? I'll use my apprentice-level magic to fight you, as long as you can survive in front of my two-ring magic, I, Adair, will immediately remove this divine power clone obtained by sacrificing demons, turn around and leave!"
