Chapter 27: Illusion
Just as the knight, whose eyes were glazed over, his mouth was slightly open, and the corners of his mouth were still drooling, he walked towards the Bridge of Curse with stiff movements like a machine, Wang Xu noticed his strange behavior, and rushed forward a few steps before catching up with him.
Just as the knight's right hand was about to hold the chain handrail on the Bridge of Curses, there was a "snap", and Wang Xu slapped his right hand away, and at this time, the knight mechanically raised his stiff left arm again, and wanted to support the chain handrail on the other side of the Bridge of Curses.
With another "snap", Wang Xu slapped his left hand away again, and at the same time, Wang Xu's eyebrows were furrowed, his eyes narrowed, and he looked at the strange expression on the knight's face in front of him with a puzzled expression.
The others also noticed the anomaly, and their attention shifted from the white skeleton in the middle of the bridge to the knight, and many people gathered around.
"What's wrong with him?" Sang Gu walked behind Wang Xu, and after seeing the knight who was drooling like a fool, he lowered his head and asked Wang Xu, "Is he crazy?"
Warren, Thornton, and Downs also gathered around, and after seeing the knight's extremely strange facial expression, and hearing Sangu's question, they all looked at Wang Xu with a puzzled expression, expecting Wang Xu to give an answer.
"I don't know what's wrong with him," Wang Xu shook his head slightly, pursed his lips, pointed to the knight who had been burned to bones in the middle of the bridge, and then glanced at the people around him, before replying in a low voice: "I think that the buddy who was burned like that just now was also like this one, and he walked on this suspension bridge stupidly." ”
After listening to Wang Xu's answer, Warren and Sangu nodded thoughtfully.
Downs stepped forward, patted the saliva knight on the shoulder, and shouted the knight's name several more times, but the knight really looked like a fool, and even ignored Downs, still staring blankly at the bridge of the curse in front of him, and continued to grow a big mouth and drool.
After looking at the saliva knight's facial expression for a while, Wang Xu found some clues, and he followed the saliva knight's dull gaze and looked at the cursed bridge on his left.
After continuing to look at the bridge covered with blood-red demon words for a few minutes, suddenly, Wang Xu felt a palpitation, and seemed to hear a voice ringing in his ears, which seemed to keep saying: "Come on, come here, come here quickly." ”
"Oh, I see. Wang Xu snorted coldly, suppressed the sound with his spiritual power, and then, turned his head, glanced at everyone again, and then looked down at the saliva knight who had been pressed to the ground by Tang Si, and said loudly: "Don't even look at the deck of that suspension bridge, the demon text on it has some kind of illusion, if you look at it for a long time, you will be like him!"
After speaking, Wang Xu pointed to the skeleton crouching in the middle of the Bridge of Curses, holding its head.
It's okay not to say anything, but when Wang Xu finished saying that, everyone looked at the bridge of the Cursed Bridge, and their curiosity overcame their reason.
"Did you hear me clearly!" Wang Xu shouted, the sound was so loud that it far overshadowed the sound of bubbles bursting when the magma river boiled, and there were even echoes around, "If you don't want to die, don't look at that bridge deck, the illusion on it is not a joke!"
After speaking, Wang Xu snorted angrily.
Finally, in Wang Xu's loud shouting, everyone's sanity returned, although they still had a strong curiosity about the demon writing on the bridge, but they still turned their heads back and stopped looking at the demon writing on the bridge.
Looking at the reluctant expressions of the people around him, Wang Xu let out a long sigh, shook his head slightly, and said in his heart, forget it, I have already reminded them that if someone is stupid again, it will be their own death, and it has nothing to do with me.
"What should he do?" Downs looked up at Wang Xu, who was much taller than himself, and pointed to the saliva knight who had his limbs tied under his feet, but was still struggling on the ground to crawl towards the Bridge of Curses, and asked Wang Xu loudly with a frown, "Is he always like this?"
"I can't help it, I'm just an alchemist, and the methods of the demons are not something I can solve. Wang Xu looked down at the saliva knight who was still squirming on the ground, and suggested in a low voice: "It's better to tie him away, or he will still climb to the top of that drawbridge, and you don't want to see him burned to a skeleton, right?"
"Hey!" Downs sighed helplessly, leaned over and grabbed the Cavaliva Knight's breastplate, pulled him hard, and dragged him to a raised pointed stalactite next to the metal arch, and then tied him to the stalactite with a rope, and then, looking at him a little sadly, shook his head gently.
The reason why Downs made so many helpless movements and expressions was because he was thinking that if the saliva knight under his command was really completely incapacitated and would only run towards the Bridge of Damnation, then he would have to give up on him, and instead of letting him be burned to death on the bridge, it would be better to be tied here and starved to death.
Wang Xu was not as ruthless as Downs, he was still a little sympathetic, and he was still thinking about how to wake up the saliva knight from the illusion.
In fact, Wang Xu has already seen that this kind of illusion is not too powerful, and it can only deal with some ordinary warriors whose mental power and willpower are not strong enough, and for a magician like himself who specializes in training mental power, this illusion will not play a role at all.
After thinking about it for a long time, Wang Xu didn't come up with a way to temporarily improve the soldier's mental power, that is to say, Wang Xu still couldn't wake up the saliva knight from the illusion.
An earth-shattering scream of "Ah......hh
I saw that the miserable white skeleton of the knight, who had already been burned to death on the bridge deck, actually stood up, and it raised its arms high, raised its skull, and howled angrily into the air, and two crimson soul fires erupted from its eyes.
"No," Wang Xu opened his mouth slightly in surprise, couldn't close it for a long time, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and after seeing that the skeleton really stood up and roared, he whispered to himself: "You can still play like this, what kind of bridge is that, it can transform a living individual into an undead creature, this is against the sky!"
Although he was already surprised in his heart, Wang Xu still calmly looked at the bones of the knight roaring on the bridge deck.
Suddenly, the skeleton lowered its arms and turned slowly, staring directly at everyone across from it, muttering something in its throat.
With a "click", the knight's skeleton broke off one of its ribs, and then, with a slight stroke of the rib on the armrest of the bridge of the damned, the rib began to burn, and eventually, it became a sharp blade that shimmered with fire.
"Kill!" the knight's skeleton roared, raised his blade alalof, and took a step towards the crowd on the platform.
"Dang!" slashed at a knight's raised shield, and with another "stab!" sparked between the blade and the shield.
"Kill!" the knight's skeleton roared again, first pumping his hand backwards, then slamming the blade into the knight's heart.
There was another "dang!" sound, and the knight's shield rested on the blade in the knight's skeleton's hand.
At this time, almost all the knights gathered around and surrounded the knight's skeleton in the middle.
Wang Xu, who was standing outside the battle group surrounded by the knights, suddenly smiled, after he saw the battle process of the knight's bones, he found that the combat power of the skeleton was equivalent to the most ordinary skeleton soldier, and even, its current strength is not even half of its strength in life, and it is really embarrassing for it at this time, at its level, it even dares to fight the crowd, it is really a fighter in the skeleton.
Although the combat effectiveness of this knight's skeleton is indeed a little cheap, the heavily armored knights surrounding it did not kill it, but only surrounded it, after all, this is the skeleton of their own comrades, no matter how they say, they can't kill it.
Looking at the hesitant expressions of the knights around him, Wang Xu pursed his lips helplessly, and said in his heart, no matter who it was in life, the enemy was the enemy, and the kindness to the enemy was cruelty to itself.
"That," Wang Xu squinted at Sangu, and after Sangu also looked at him, he whispered to Sangu, "Go and get rid of that skeleton." ”
"Not so well. Sangu hesitated, after a short time together, Sangu had already developed feelings for the knight team, and even regarded himself as one of them, so he didn't want to kill the bones of his comrades.
"I'll have to do it myself," Wang Xu glanced at Sangu fiercely, pulled out his stainless steel long sword from the ground, patted Warren standing beside him on the shoulder, and asked in a low voice, "Is this ...... You...... Don't mind, right?"
Warren understood what Wang Xu meant, and knew that he had decided to kill the knight's skeleton that was too weak to see, and Warren, who had a lot of experience, like Wang Xu, also understood the truth that the enemy is the enemy, so when he heard Wang Xu's question, he didn't say anything, just nodded silently, and agreed.
"Get out of the way!" Wang Xu coldly shouted to the knights in front of him, and the knights made way for Wang Xu, and Wang Xu walked into their encirclement.
When the knight's skeleton saw that a tall thin man dressed like a black zongzi dared to provoke him, he immediately became angry, the crimson soul fire in his eyes flashed wildly, and he roared angrily in his throat, and raised his sword and swung it at Wang Xu's head, it wanted to cut off Wang Xu's head at one time and solve Wang Xu.
Looking at the move of the knight's skeleton on the opposite side, Wang Xu sneered disdainfully, waved his left hand lightly, and with a "click", a water tank thick and a person-high icicle bulged up on the ground, and with a "ding", the blade of the knight's skeleton was stuck by the icicle.
The knight's skeleton was pulled out with all his strength for a long time, but he couldn't pull the blade out of the icicle, so he gave up the blade and held his hands high towards Wang Xu's throat, apparently trying to strangle Wang Xu.
Looking at the funny movements of the knight's skeleton rushing towards him, Wang Xu smiled disdainfully, and said in his heart, are you stupid, didn't you see me holding a long sword, how long are your arms, can you grow longer than a steel long sword that is too tall for a person?
Without giving the knight's skeleton any chance, Wang Xu held the sword in his right hand, and slashed it horizontally, directly cutting off the knight's skeleton's arms, and then, Wang Xu slashed at the skeleton's legs, "click", and the leg was broken.
The bones of the knight, who had lost his legs and arms, fell to the ground with a "plop", and fell into the mud.
"Tie it up," Wang Xu looked down at the disabled skeleton struggling on the ground, and saw that it was trying to gnaw on the limestone ground with its teeth, trying to bite its own feet by gnawing at the edge of its own shoes, so he sighed, leaned over to the bones on the ground and said, "I didn't want to kill you, but if you want to kill me, then I will leave you behind!"
With that, with a "poof", the sword entered from the back of the bone's head, pierced through its forehead, and pinned it to the ground.
The soul fire in the knight's bones flickered twice and was extinguished.
Just as Wang Xu was about to use a fire to burn the bones on the ground to ashes, there was a "hum", and the demonic text on the Bridge of Curses suddenly lit up with a blood-red light, and then the soul fire in the knight's bones burned again......
