Chapter 256: The Application of Magic (I)
"Master, what is the Taklama Fish Beast?" Neris observed the corpse of the fish beast in her hand. I didn't see much danger. Still, the growth rate of this thing is quite scary.
"It's a collective term for several species of fish, Rex said, and I haven't studied this very much. ”
"Give me one. Rex took the corpse of a Taklama Fish Beast from Nellis's hand, put it in front of his eyes and observed it carefully, and after a while, he said, "Taklama Fish Beast, there are about forty varieties, their vitality is extremely tenacious, ordinary fish leave the water, it won't take long to die, but the Taklama Fish Beast can survive for at least a few days, and it can basically fly ......"
"This one, it's a cold-toothed fish beast, and its innate magic is chewing. If you are bitten by it, even the magic armor will not last long. And these things are all swarm activities, much more terrifying than piranhas. ”
Nellis didn't refute, although this cold-toothed fish beast was pinched and killed by her and several demons, this thing had just hatched, and it already had the ability to fly. You know, they are struggling out of the ice, and the low-level magical beasts are frozen by the two magic spells of Saleen and Rex. I'm afraid I'll die directly.
"The key is the eggs, any kind of fish, each time you lay a few thousands, as many as hundreds of thousands. The eggs of the Taklama Fish Beast are also preserved on land and turn into fine dust, which hatches as soon as there is water. This is a variety that is unique to the desert. However, there is never much prey to eat in the desert, and this thing rarely turns into a large monster. When food runs out and there is no water, adult fish beasts will choose to die immediately after laying eggs. ”
"If it rains......" Salin didn't finish his words, but the people and demons in the car were all chilling. The black sand grains in a beaker were just a handful of them, and there were dozens of fish and beast eggs in them. If it rains, I'm afraid that hundreds of millions of fish and beasts will hatch.
"Whether it hatches or not, it depends on the amount of food. If there is no food, these eggs will even continue to sleep for a long time. ”
Rex's words didn't make everyone much easier, because they themselves were food for fish beasts. If the people of the Holy See chased in, there would be more food.
"Master, let's go back to Metatrin City, this desert is so annoying. Naris said in disgust as she threw away the Taclama Fish Beasts in her hand. She wasn't too afraid of this kind of thing, but for a magician, the Taklama Fish Beast was too terrifying. Because of the sheer number, mages have a limited number of magic strings. I'm afraid the puppet is not lethal enough for this thing, ordinary soldiers? It's just a pile of moving food.
"What's the weakness of this thing?" said Sika, who was the calmest of all. Caucasians believe that all living things have weaknesses. Can be domesticated.
"The weakness is that the mental power is not strong enough, and it can be eliminated with the magic of mental impact. But only young people can do this. Rex replied that it was still not easy. The effect of the Magician's Spiritual Shock is obvious when used directly, but the number of times it is used is pathetic. After repeated use, it was the magician himself who collapsed first.
"There are more than forty varieties of Taklama fish beasts, all of which have different attributes, in addition to the lack of mental power, there is also one weakness of the same, that is, the flight speed is not too fast. ”
Rex's addition is equivalent to not saying that no matter how slow the flight is, it will be faster than the legs of humans, with the exception of demons, of course. However, when a mage flies in an environment like the Purgatory Desert, his speed is greatly reduced, and it takes a lot of magic strings to deal with this unstable elemental environment. Unlike winged creatures, the mage's magic strings run out, and the speed immediately decreases to the level of a normal warrior.
"We can only hope that it doesn't rain, and we try to avoid places that could become water sources. As soon as Rex's words came out, even she felt weird. In the desert, water is the most precious, if there can be a rain. It would have saved many lives, but now she hopes that there will be no rain all the time, and she doesn't even want to touch the water source.
What really worries Salin is not these fish beasts, the Taklama fish beast is not a strong creature, before it reaches adulthood, it is just extremely resistant to water magic, and if it is dealt with with fire magic, it can also be burned in one piece. What's bad is that once this fish beast hatches, it is a huge number, enough to provide food for other monsters.
Before reaching adulthood, most Taklama Fish Beasts are prey to other Monsters, and many Monsters have evolved skills specifically to deal with Fish Beasts. This is a cycle of nature, and the powerful fish beasts provide a chance for other magical beasts to survive before they grow.
"Hey, let's deal with these fish and beasts first. Salin, let's take a half-day break and concentrate on making the scroll of the Ring of Resistance. Rex reluctantly beckoned to his mage and took out a pile of blank scrolls and handed them over.
The Ring of Fire Resistance is a three-pole defensive magic that restrains the Taklama Fish Beast in terms of attributes. Rex had to waste the scroll to make this, because her swordsmen needed protection, otherwise the Taklama fish beasts would swarm up, and the two black iron sword saints were okay, after wearing the spirit snake armor, they could use sword qi wantonly, but those high-level swordsmen had to be protected by magic, and just a few magic spells on the armor could not resist the gnawing of the cold tooth fish.
The existence of magic armor was originally used by humans to deal with their own kind. To deal with Warcraft, the means needed are ever-changing.
Saleen searched for the scrolls stored in the Demon Ring and said to Rex, "I have two Spirit Storm scrolls, both of which are level six, what about you?"
"I have four. Rex replied that the spirit storm had no problem dealing with the Taklama Fish Beast, but this kind of scroll was rarely made, and Salen himself had hundreds of scrolls to spare, but there were only two, and Rex's scrolls were only four more than Sarin's.
Although the Spirit Storm is an area attack, it is not area magic, and the area of the attack is only a few hundred square meters. This is the magic used by the magician when he is besieged by the swordsman, and there are swordsmen with inferior mental power to the mage on all sides, and the magician can turn the situation around with just one spiritual storm.
A few hundred square meters sounds like a lot, but in fact the combat radius is only a dozen meters. This is the most suitable distance for attacking below Juggernaut.
After Rex answered, he ignored Saleen and began to make the Ring of Resistance scrolls.
Fortunately, this time Rex was surrounded by great magicians, and the success rate of making low-level scrolls would not be less than 80%. Rex himself is best at fire magic, and it is naturally easy to deal with juvenile fish beasts. What they fear is a heavy rain, and there will be an incalculable number of fish and beasts.
Saleen was not involved in the creation of the scroll, and he would not resist the magic of the Ring of Fire. There is no need to deduce now, how to convert this fire magic with the water element. He didn't sit idle, but married a little more black sand, first put it in a crystal bottle, poured the water of repair, and then sealed the bottle.
The power within the water of repair quickly caused the eggs to hatch, and two fish beasts emerged from the black sand and swam within the water of repair. This crystal bottle is a hundred times harder than a glass beaker, and it has no elemental attributes, trapping two juvenile fish beasts inside.
Salin simply took out the flame path and added magic powder. Once the mix is done, place the crystal bottle on top and heat it. This was already very skilled when he learned to make magic potions, the temperature of the flame was very well controlled, and after a while, the crystal bottle began to heat up, and the two fish beasts did not panic at all, as the temperature increased, Salin measured on the side, the water in the crystal bottle was about to boil, and the fish beast still didn't feel anything.
In an enclosed space, the pressure of the water increases when heated, and the temperature can exceed the boiling point in the ordinary sense. Many magic potions are made under high pressure, and this time, Salin is going to study the limits of the fish beast.
The temperature slowly rose to two hundred and twenty degrees, and the two fish beasts began to hit the wall of the bottle, and Salin didn't care about them, but kept putting different incendiary potions into the furnace to increase the temperature. Eventually, the temperature inside the crystal bottle reached a terrifying eight hundred degrees, which was already the temperature of some of the lowest magical flames.
The two fish beasts simply flipped over and floated up.
Saleen kept all the records in his magic notebook, and then said to Rex, "The newborn fish beast can be dealt with with with the fire raccoon technique. ”
The four demons looked at Saleen with some envy, the ability of human research is something that demons don't have, to be exact, it's the demons who are too lazy to do. Saleen quickly found the limit of the baby body of the fish beast, which made it much easier for the mage to deal with the fish beast.
Fire Huanjutsu, a level 0 magic, was originally used to dispel toxins, and at the same time had the effects of baking clothes and cleansing the body. This is a life support type of magic that is rarely used in combat, because the flame formed by Fire Huanjutsu is not high in temperature and has a short duration of action, but for fish beasts that naturally hate fire, Fire Huanjutsu is sufficient.
How many times can a great mage perform a level 0 fire raccoon technique? However, if he only uses level 0 magic, he can fight for a long time like a Juggernaut without worrying about the consumption of magic strings.
Rex immediately let his mages test, and sure enough, under the effect of the Fire Raccoon Technique, the newly hatched fish beasts were killed one after another. Resisting the fire ring is an instant kill for fish and beasts. In contrast, the damage of water magic to fish beasts is simply pitiful, and it takes level 4 or more magic to kill weak fish beasts.
Rex's swordsmen also joined the experiment, in a closed barracks, the fish beast was hatched, and the swordsman attacked with his various weapons and skills, and finally chose Qin Yin's eight-sided sword as a weapon.
If you want to kill fish beasts, it is not enough to rely on the sharpness of the weapon, the best way to use sword qi to concuss. The fish beast has a fragile brain, but its shell is extremely hard. Although these sword masters can't leave their sword qi from their bodies, it's still easy to inject weapons. The Qin Yin Eight-Sided Sword was the easiest weapon to infuse with sword qi, and it was much more useful against fish beasts than the battle axe of the violent bear.
