Chapter 132: The Giant Eater
It was supposed to be a large rotunda, supported by a circle of huge columns, and the columns were only a few feet away from the side walls, which were behind the stone pillars, and which, according to the prophecy of the group, were lit in the direction of the torches, and were surrounded by walls, with no passages and no doors......
The mage was stunned, and Feng smiled and said, "The prophecy technique wants us to go in this direction, but there is no road in this direction, so what it means is actually 'turn back quickly, don't say anything unpredictable'?"
The mage grinned: "Maybe there is a few degrees of deviation, let's take a few steps around the right side and take a look......"
While they were deliberating, they stopped, but Zhang Lu in front of them "watched with his heart" and did not hear the conversation of his companions, but still walked forward without hurry, and went directly into the wall. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Is it an illusion?!" the mage was somewhat dumbfounded.
Feng Heran smiled and said, "If it's an illusion, then it really can't prevent this guy......"
Zhang Lu is indeed proficient in illusion, and also has considerable resistance and immunity to illusions cast by others - this is like a big liar who has accumulated years, how can he easily fall for telephone fraud?
Of course, there are occasional exceptions, and the type of illusion can also be subdivided, specific to a certain type, especially the new usage from another world, maybe Zhang Lu may also be fooled without knowing it - for example, he is fascinated by the bell and confused by the fog demon, so it is not once or twice to capsize in the gutter, although he wakes up relatively quickly...... Politicians who are full of nonsense and wantonly deceive voters also have times when they hit the fraudsters.
But this time he passed through the wall without hindrance, and regarded this illusion as if it were nothing, and it really had nothing to do with the resistance of illusion, the key was that he was "looking with his heart" at the moment, not seeing or listening at all, but often being able to point directly to the essence of things. "Contemplating with the heart" can replace the five senses to a certain extent, but it is not a simple reproduction of the five senses, for example, although he has given up the feeling of sound waves, he can still clearly perceive the doubts and hesitations of his companions behind him. It's just that he didn't go to his heart, because in his heart, the road ahead was a smooth road, and he didn't know what his companions were hesitating about?
In Zhang Lu's feelings, behind the two columns was a long and narrow road, leading to the unknowable distance, and within the range of a dozen zhang of his mind, there were no obstacles - including monsters and fog.
So he did not stop and continued to walk forward, and his companions hurried to quicken their pace, following closely, and soon they all passed through the illusory wall, and the wind suddenly lit up the road ahead with torches in their hands. After walking a few dozen steps forward, the road turned a corner and led to a stone room, Zhang Lu suddenly stopped, and let go of his five senses, warning his companions: "There is something ......"
Because it was clear that there was no fog to obscure him, he stopped 'contemplating with his heart'. In other words, "looking at it with the heart" can certainly see through the truth of many things, but at the same time, it is inevitable to ignore some superficial details that everyone can see and hear. For example, if the mind can see through the huge thing in front of it, it has no killing intent, but only by opening its eyes can it clearly see that it is a machine -- how can a machine have emotions? Naturally, a machine has no killing intent, but a machine can hurt people without exuding killing intent......
In particular, the laws of heaven and earth in this foggy world are different from all the other worlds that Zhang Lu has traversed, and the vitality is easy to disperse, and it is difficult to reunite, if it is explained according to the D&D system, that is: the spells and special skills that each person can cast per battle or every day are all in a certain number, and it is difficult to recover unless they go through a rest similar to deep sleep. If in other worlds, whether it is a martial artist or a martial artist, as long as he maintains a certain level of output, does not exceed his physical strength, fights and casts spells, he can theoretically be endless, and never stop - of course, because of mental and physical exhaustion leads to gradual exhaustion, that is another problem.
For Li Yanchao and others, some so-called "tricks" and "secret techniques" will consume a lot of vitality in a short period of time, and it is difficult to recover quickly in the foggy world, which leads to the fact that one can be two but not three, and the number of applications is limited. For Zhang Lu, it seems that there is a limit to the number of times he can cast "Mind Looking", since it is determined that there is no fog ahead, although there are enemies, but they are not fog demons, then it is better to stop using it for the time being, and leave it for the time when it is really needed.
He sensed that some large creatures were gathering in the stone chamber in front of him, so he reminded his companion as he clenched the sword in his hand. I heard the strange sound of "Xi Xi Suosuo", and then under the light of the fire, I saw six or seven huge spiders pouring out of the stone chamber together!
Almost every spider was half a man tall, with eight slender hairy legs that stretched out to be more than a foot long, and their huge mouthparts were clearly recognizable and extremely ugly. The spider's body is basically gray, similar to the color of the fog, but its abdomen is faintly covered with dark red stripes. The mage immediately shouted, "It's a giant spider!"
Zhang Lu raised his sword and posed, and asked, "What are the characteristics and abilities?"
The mage replied quickly, "It's best to eat corpses, and I like to eat living people...... Beware of being entangled in the spider silk spewing out of its belly!"
Zhang Lu sneered: "Then don't let them turn around, isn't it?"
The various arthropods that Zhang Lu had ever seen—of course, not that large—had their abdomen snneeseling and strapping silk into a web of silk, and when they had stuck to their prey, they would wrap their prey in clusters with their feet hooked with spider silk and eat them...... So theoretically, it would be impossible to spray the silk forward. I hope these creatures in front of me don't violate the general characteristics of animals of the same order—he immediately stabbed his sword at the mouthparts of a giant devouring spider that was rushing towards him.
But before his sword could hurt the other party, he heard the sound of the spell behind him, and then more than a dozen fireballs flew towards the giant devouring spiders together, and these fireballs were like tennis balls, with very good elasticity, and even after hitting a spider, they could still turn instantaneously, and then rush to the second ...... Zhang Lu secretly wondered, if I met a mage with this trick, would I be able to resist it?
The trajectory of the fireball is extremely irregular, and the angle of attack is very tricky, like a hunter who is not only alive, but even intelligent and experienced. Zhang Luxin said that it is indeed more difficult to avoid or block these more than ten fireballs at the same time, if it were me, it is estimated that I will be hit by two or three - fortunately, looking at its power, I can still withstand ten or eight times......
Several of the giant devourers were hit by the fireballs, and suddenly let out a piercing scream, and shrank backwards - fortunately it was not the howl of the fog demon, and although it was unpleasant, it had little effect on the human mind. Zhang Lu took advantage of the situation and pierced the heads of those monsters who seemed to be in pain, and their legs and feet were constantly twitching one by one, and then they also rushed up to help, but in a moment's effort, they killed all the more than ten giant devouring spiders.
There were hardly any spiders that had time to sneeze silk, but every time they spit out a few threads, they were all caught on fire, and their buttocks were scorched.
Kicking the corpse of the giant devouring spider to both sides of the corridor as much as possible, clearing the central passage, Zhang Lu cautiously walked into the stone chamber under the light of the torch held high by the wind behind him. The interior was white, and the four walls were covered with spider silk as thick as a child's arm, and Zhang Lu tried to swing his sword to cut it, but those silks were not only soft and unsuffocated, but also full of stickiness. The mage reminded, "Use fire." But he wouldn't cast any more fire-type spells, because one time would be less than one......
The wind took a step forward, poked out the torch and flicked it, and the spider silk on the wall quickly burned and emitted a foul smell with a fishy smell. After the spider silk burned out, a few pieces of rusty iron were revealed, which looked like broken swords and spearheads. The mage judged: "It is estimated that those city lord guards who came in first were first swallowed by the fog demon, and then they were eaten by the giant devouring spider...... It's pathetic......"
Zhang Lu asked, "What about the bones, the hilt of the sword, and the barrel of the gun?"
"Macrophages can melt and eat their skin, flesh, bones, clothes, and wooden utensils, except for metal, which cannot be digested," replied the mage, "and they have a certain stickiness on their toes, and they can climb high......
Feng shrugged his shoulders: "Then the city lord's daughter, it is estimated that there will be no wreckage left......"
The mage sighed lightly and consulted their opinion, "Do you want to move on?"
Because after the spider silk burned out, a narrow small door in the back wall was revealed, and this should not be a dead end. Zhang Lu smiled: "There are not many fog demons left, as for the giant devouring spider, it is very easy to deal with." ”
"But I have a limited number of fire-type spells......"
Zhang Lu raised the "Xuan Ting" in his hand: "With this alone, you can deal with it - the key is that the corridor is not wide, and these spiders are too big, and there are at most two of them rushing over at the same time, and they are crowded with each other, making it difficult to move." Fighting two or three giant devourers at the same time, I can kill them in one slump ......"
"What is a platoon?"
"Oh, that's about thirty," Zhang Lu glanced at his companions, "If we work in a few shifts, it won't be a problem to kill a few hundred." ”
The mage suddenly asked, "Do you know what kind of monster is the most difficult to deal with in this dungeon?"
"Excuse me. ”
"It's goblins," the mage raised an eyebrow, "because they have a certain intelligence, and they can call out friends and flock to them, often in surprising numbers...... As for these unintelligent monsters, the more they are of the same species, the more they have their own spheres of influence, and they will not easily rescue their friends and friends, so it is convenient for humans to defeat them one by one. It's just that there has never been a record of fog demons and giant phagophers coexisting in the same area, and I'm afraid that there is something more terrifying in the depths of the dungeon, because of its might, these two types of monsters have not killed each other......"
"Are you scared?"
"No," the mage shook his head, laughing suddenly, "it piqued my curiosity. Especially a few of them, although they are only warriors, they seem to be quite strong in their ability to resist demons, and with you, I am not afraid of the future. It's just ......" frowned again as he spoke: "You are not here for the city lord's reward, what is your purpose?"
Zhang Lu and the other four looked at each other, and finally decided that some of the too crazy demons did not have forbidden information, and they could reveal a little bit to the mage - "According to the legends of our continent, in the bunker of this Dragon Bone Mountain, there is an ancient artifact - what it is, what is the function, and which god left it, no one knows......"
The look at the master's expression didn't seem to believe it very much: "Just because of a very vague piece of information, you have traveled thousands of miles, even across the ocean, to come here?"
Zhang Lu lied casually without blushing: "This is a trial in the clan." ”
"I see," the mage believed—he certainly wouldn't be able to ask questions about other people's affairs, "then, let's go a little further and see......
After passing through the small door, there was a long and narrow corridor in front of it, but this corridor did not turn, and at a glance there seemed to be a dark stone chamber at the end. Zhang Lu straightened his sword and went straight, and as soon as he stepped into the stone room, he suddenly stopped, and alerted his companions: "There is fog!"
In fact, his companions had already seen behind him, this stone chamber was not very large—of course, compared to the square surrounded by stone pillars outside—it was only more than a hundred square meters, and under the faint light projection, it could be seen that behind the stone chamber was an extremely thick gray mist, as if it were alive, coiling and rolling......
"And the fog demon ......," the mage said.
Zhang Lu sneered: "It should be the two remaining ends." As he spoke, he used "Observe with the Heart" for the last time, held his long sword in his hand, and rushed towards the dense fog with one arrow step. The two fog demons screamed and pounced, and Zhang Lu killed one on the spot, but when he wanted to turn his wrist and cut horizontally with the sword, he went to cut the second head, but he unexpectedly kicked something spherical under his feet, and his movements were stagnant.
The fog demon seized this great opportunity and rushed straight towards Zhang Lumian's door. Zhang Lu hurriedly tilted his head, which could be avoided, but then a sharp whistling sound sounded in his ears - just as the effect of "contemplating with the heart" ended, the whistling sound entered his ears, stabbing him with a spirit. Fortunately, this was just the miserable cry of the fog demon before he died-Li Yan's super long knife was out of his hand, and he played with the flying knife again, and it happened to hit the fog demon's face.
Originally, the fog demon was hidden in the dense fog, and it was difficult for Li Yanchao to see its specific location, but at this time, the dense fog was not as overwhelming as before, diffusing the surrounding space, but only condensed in the back of the stone room, which made Li Dashao know where the other party was through his keen intuition.
The remnants of the fog demons at the two ends were instantly ambushed, and it was strange to say that the thick gray mist quickly faded, and then completely dissipated, and then Zhang Lu heard the exclamations from his companions behind him, as well as the sound of gasping. He put away his sword in self-defense, and at the same time looked down, and couldn't help but be surprised-
It turned out that the spherical object he was kicking just now turned out to be a bloody human head! Except for the two ugly heads of the fog demons that had been pierced by swords or split by knives, the ground where the original fog was covered was densely packed with human heads, not to mention more than a dozen. And surrounded by human heads, a blonde woman fell prostrate on the ground, life and death unknown...... (To be continued.) )
