Chapter 21: An Unfortunate Victory
At this point, there seems to be no doubt about the gamble.
Trapped in the water man, Richard looked through the thick curtain of water at the hazy and twisted bushes in front of him, and the glittering stream. He had been holding his breath for half a minute, and at this moment he blushed like a ripe pomegranate.
Mom sells batches, this idea is good, but it's boring. Richard complained secretly, and then ordered the hypertrophied and bloated water man outside his body to step into the creek.
The stream in front of him can be more than ten meters wide, rippling blue waves. was stepped on by him like this, and suddenly a large splash of water. The golden sunlight reflected a strange light through these water droplets. Walking to the middle of the stream, the fat and bloated water man collapsed violently, and Richard inside took the opportunity to run to the bottom of the stream. The creek was indeed not shallow, five or six meters deep, so clear and clear that Richard could see the schools of fish that had been alarmed by him not far away.
He slid his hands and feet to swim under the water, pondering his breathing.
Using the Wind Giant's physical control technique, Richard created several basin-sized blisters and transported them underwater to cover his mouth and nose.
The golden dots from the flying lantern technique were still entangled in his body, and the black stone mantis that was like a dark cloud still shrouded in the sky above the stream.
But these unusually fierce insects seemed to be very afraid of water, and they just kept circling and swimming, glaring at Richard under the water, and did not dare to jump into the thunder pool at all.
The weakness of Yadave's deworming technique is exposed at this moment.
Seeing Richard jumping into the creek so simply, Adeve in the sky was angry and hateful.
But after the sulking, he couldn't help but have some admiration for Richard.
To be able to ponder such an idea in a moment's time is indeed worthy of a clever sentence.
It's really up to this kid to find the right way. Adeve's eyes narrowed into a line.
When he didn't know what to do, there was a new movement underneath. Richard ordered the water man to twist his body and begin to speak in Roland's lingua franca.
"This senior, although I have more than enough to protect myself, I can't solve your swarm. But if you want to kill me, you'll have to defend it. Now that it's time to take a step back. You take these things with yours, just let me go. Truth be told, this time it was just a misunderstanding. I strayed into this place out of curiosity beforehand, and who would have thought that your apprentice would be arrogant and unreasonable. He insisted on fighting me, so I had to take it, but I didn't expect his magic to get out of control......"
After piecing together this paragraph, Richard waited for the reaction from above.
Then, while he was still underwater, he heard a thunderous laugh.
Richard then felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if he had been held tightly by his hand. Without checking for a moment, his breathing was suddenly disturbed, and a series of bubbles spat out of his mouth like a goldfish. I was at a loss, like I was drowning.
"Boy, losing is losing, don't tease me with this. ”
In the sky, Yadef, who was as huge as a hill, was in a hurry, and used "heart grabbing". His outstretched left hand pinched a heart-like phantom, as if it was about to burst at any moment.
But Adève didn't do it after all.
"I'm not one who can't afford to lose!"
After saying this, he dispersed the flying lantern technique as before.
Floating above the stream, the swarms of intertwined black stone mantis suddenly lost their purpose and buzzed back to their lair. Seeing this movement, Richard, whose heart was pinched, relieved himself and slowly swam ashore
Looking at the humble figure at his feet, Yadif thought about it, and still dispersed the magic of "heart grabbing". Although he was very dissatisfied with losing to Richard, as he said, he was indeed not a person who could not afford to lose. After a burst of laughter, the gray-bearded old man chanted another incantation.
Lying on the ground in front of them, the dozen or so huge stick insects shook their heads and tails, and there were new movements.
The two people on the back of the worm shed the outer layer of wood like molts, revealing the shiny and rough chitin armor again.
Then, the dozen or so skyscraper-like giant insects spread their elytra behind them and staggered into the sky. Their transparent wings vibrated violently, and at this moment they rubbed against the air and made a loud buzzing sound. The pine forest underneath was full of strong winds, and the wind and sand were all flying.
"Boy, I remember you. ”
Finally, the words were released, and Yadève's huge figure rose into the air along with the bugs.
Poor Richard at this moment, because his heart was captured just now, his whole body was out of strength for a while, and he was lying on the ground like a dead dog at this time.
He raised his head weakly, looked at the people and insects flying in the sky, and raised a middle finger high.
"Old thing, it's not a trick in the end. If you really admit defeat, just do what you said before, and if you have a kind, just cancel this doppelganger and leave this bunch of bugs. Say one thing, do another, I'm phew!"
Of course, because of his previous experience, Richard decided to hold these words to his heart after being excited.
This old bastard is too powerful, and he has seven or eight rings of magic at his fingertips, and he doesn't have the same thing. Richard was so frightened that these words reached the ears of this man, and in a fit of rage, he thrust himself to death with the spear of thunder.
Turning over, Richard looked feebly at the blue sky above him.
In less than an hour, he was on the verge of danger twice, which was really exciting. Suddenly coughed violently a few times, and sneezed, he sprayed all the water in his nostrils and throat. Richard sighed loudly again, the sense of accomplishment that had permeated his heart in the past few days had all become grasshoppers after the autumn, and they were completely gone.
Richard had to be lost.
Richard thought he was great enough. Coming to this strange place alone, he actually used his brain to subdue seven monsters with good strength one after another, and even brought gold and silver out of the jungle. But so what, the world is in chaos, just in this small town where you settled, you will encounter a bunch of masters who want people's lives. Not to mention this master who directly uses the Nine Rings Magic, his second-class apprentices alone are enough to eat a pot. If it weren't for an accident that made this product be plotted by black powder, I'm afraid that the previous contest wouldn't be good for me.
What should I do? Richard felt empty and confused.
This teenager who was hit by reality quickly gave up on himself and decided that he was a salted fish that was about to be dried by the sun, and the road ahead was dark.
Just as he was at a loss, Richard suddenly heard a voice from the side.
"He's gone?"
"That's right, this old thing is gone, and we're saved!"
"Little brother, don't lie down there, come and save us!"
"I didn't expect this little guy to have some means, and he could actually win him?"
"You still ridiculed people before. ”
......
Following the sound, Richard was stunned to see the fading wooden shells of two giant stick insects not far away.
This old thing didn't think that I was in league with them, and this time I came to save them, so I just took this as a bet. Richard felt like he had figured out the truth.
Being turned off like this, his optimistic thoughts flooded again.
Anyway, the sky is falling, and there are those tall men on top, and you, Lord Earl, and I have the ability, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to get ahead. Richard calmed his "military spirit" and climbed up from the bank of the stream.
Richard looked at the big wooden bump in front of him, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Look at who these guys are, and maybe they'll be able to hammer out something good.
