Chapter 44: Traps and Hunts
"Are you really separated from your father here?"
"yes! right here by the river......"
"When?"
"Not so long ago......"
"Oh......"
There is no nutrition for the bad, Sun Chenghuan then dealt with this little girl who looked a little aggrieved and a little shy, while walking along the river at the gate of the post station. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"She" says that at the gate of the inn, she and her father were separated.
Then, she went into the post house to find her father.
Surprisingly, there were no guards at the entrance of the station.
Naturally, no one will see "where her dad went".
It is only possible to walk along the river.
After walking for a long time, we were almost at the base of the walls of Onika City.
"Little sister, are you sure you're not misremembering?"
Sun Chenghuan asked in a concerned tone.
On the other hand, two spells were silently prepared.
Fleeting.
Blessing of Strength and Blessing of Agility.
Sun Chenghuan already sensed the danger.
And, it's that kind of very dangerous danger. It was like how he felt when he faced Eldraine.
Even, even more.
"It should be here, big brother, can you go and help me take a look?"
“...... Well. Sun Chenghuan knew that in front, it should be an ambushed trap.
This ambush is inevitably too unsophisticated, isn't it? Sun Chenghuan complained silently in his heart, is this really treating himself as a fool?
It's just that, although he knew that the front was dangerous, Sun Chenghuan also decided that he had to take a look.
The reason was what Erin had just said to him.
Whether it is the lord of the city, including this puppeteer who is setting up a trap for himself, it seems that he has 100% confidence in killing his group.
Why?
If you don't touch the other party's bottom first, Sun Chenghuan feels that he will lose sleep tonight......
There was a moment of silence in his heart, and the price of power magic was ready.
It's a big deal to lie down for a few days, or let Erin use dispel magic on herself.
But just when Sun Chenghuan was preparing how to trigger this ambush trap, the mutation rose sharply.
Suddenly, from five different places, five rays of light of different colors shot out.
Five different spells.
Sun Chenghuan secretly screamed in his heart, and he didn't think about it, so he directly used the magic prepared in his hand.
The price of power.
Now Sun Chenghuan can use the strongest magic.
All of a sudden, his speed increased. Escaped five attacks in a row.
Three consecutive boom bangs.
Obviously, this is not a low level of magic at five levels.
"Big brother, you're so amazing!"
Behind Sun Chenghuan, a voice sounded.
It's the "little girl" just now.
Then, a white light.
It came out of nowhere.
Sun Chenghuan thought about preventing the attack of order magic, yes, since it was the person sent by the city lord to kill him, how could he not know his own tricks? But he never thought that the puppet behind him who led him into the trap could actually cast order magic.
If you want to hide, it's too late.
The white light struck him.
Sun Chenghuan sighed silently in his heart.
The price of power, a dispel magic, is all in vain. It can't be cast again for a day.
Moreover, even his own strength blessing and agility blessing are gone.
Strength blessing is okay, after all, this is not a battlefield, and there are few opportunities to compete head-to-head, but without the agility blessing, your movement speed will be greatly reduced.
didn't have time to be depressed, Sun Chenghuan immediately took action.
Because two more bolts of magic shot at me.
Unlike the magic attacks that could quickly dodge the five almost simultaneously without dead ends, at this moment, Sun Chenghuan's movements were obviously much slower.
These two spells that were not very fast, he avoided them a little reluctantly.
No, if you go on like this, you will definitely die. Sun Chenghuan immediately understood his current situation.
He still had an impression of the direction in which the five magic shots had just come from, and the first thing he had to do now was to immediately find a way to jump out of this encirclement.
The most direct way is to go down the river.
Sun Chenghuan jumped directly into the water.
"Big brother, it's useless!"
The "little girl" behind her had a hint of mockery in her voice.
The magic continues.
Sun Chenghuan hid magic in the water, which was relatively much easier.
The group of mages who ambushed themselves here today did not have elemental mages, and most of the other types of magic would be greatly weakened in the water.
This impact is far greater than the impact of Sun Chenghuan's actions.
Diving underwater, let's run in the direction of the station!
Although embarrassed, he still touched the bottom of the other party to some extent: a group of magicians......
Sun Chenghuan comforted himself in his heart as he dodged the magic that shot from above the water.
It's still thrilling, but it's better than the danger of dying at any moment when you're just on the water.
But before his self-consolation could add a sense of accomplishment to his escape, Sun Chenghuan immediately thought of something.
Isn't there only one puppeteer?
How can there be a group of magicians?
Don't......
Sun Chenghuan remembered where he saw the puppeteer.
It was on a somewhat curious book called "The Encyclopedia of Magic Sects" that Li Yaer showed him before!
That's also a book that Sun Chenghuan has never read anywhere else!
Although the language in that book is unknown, it seems to say that each puppet is equivalent to a person under the control of a puppeteer.
So, the six people who just attacked him, the six magicians, that is, the six puppets controlled by this puppeteer?
Sun Chenghuan didn't know what level the puppeteer was controlling the six puppets, but he could probably understand that this must not be simple.
At least distract six people at the same time!
Let six golems attack themselves together, that's a terrifying attack!
Generally speaking, when six magicians attack one person together, there will always be various inconveniences, whether it is coordination, the timing of casting magic, the angle, ...... And so on, it may be difficult to be perfect.
But when the six magicians are commanded by the same person......
Sun Chenghuan finally understood why the city lord and the puppeteer himself were so confident in killing him and the others.
If it weren't for the price of that moment's power just now, which made his speed extremely fast, I'm afraid he would already be a corpse, right?
Thankfully, he doesn't have an elemental mage here! Otherwise, if he casts an elemental frost spell here......
Just when Sun Chenghuan was silently happy in his heart, he regretted it.
The body suddenly felt cold.
The river seems to be freezing.
"Oops!Elemental Magic!Frost Nova!" Sun Chenghuan secretly cursed himself a little annoyed, if he didn't think about it, he might be able to escape! Then, he swam out of the water as fast as he could.
If you stay in the water, you will freeze into a popsicle.
But if you swim up, it won't be good!
As soon as they emerged on the water, two magicians beckoned.
One left and one right, a perfect fit angle.
Sun Chenghuan lifted his breath, let himself step on the water, and jumped up.
Two magic bolts hit the water together, and one hit Sun Chenghuan, breaking the magic shield.
But the power of the powerful magic still pushed him directly to the shore.
Fell to the ground.
Sun Chenghuan jumped up from a carp on the ground, intending to escape again, but he found that it was too late.
I really fell into the trap this time.
There was a circle around him, surrounded by six people.
Six very beautiful girls.
Including the one that looks like a little girl.
Twelve very beautiful eyes.
It's all godless.
All puppets!
Sun Chenghuan sighed silently in his heart.
Although he guessed correctly, he was not happy at all.
Yourself, play big. My life is going to be lost.
"Big brother, when did you find out that I wasn't alive?"
Since Sun Chenghuan has fallen into their trap, the six "girls" don't seem to have the idea of closing the net immediately.
The shortest "girl" asked a question as if chatting.
Sun Chenghuan snorted and did not answer.
In my heart, I was still thinking about various possible ways for me to escape.
"I'm such a cute and beautiful girl, why did you find out?"
"Little girl," she asked, still in disbelief.
"It's very simple, no matter how perfect a dummy is, it's not human. Sun Chenghuan replied casually.
It's kind of stalling.
It's been a while since I left the post station, didn't anyone find out that I had disappeared? Sun Chenghuan roared silently in his heart, come and save me!
"I'm not a dummy! I'm a human!" the puppet said in an angry tone, as he seemed a little frustrated by the evaluation.
"Do you have a soul of your own?" Sun Chenghuan snorted.
The topic is very mysterious.
But that's it, maybe he can delay a little longer?
"Soul, do you know what a soul is?" the puppet laughed.
The smile is beautiful.
So it's getting more and more scary.
Sun Chenghuan snorted.
What is a soul? He really doesn't understand. Only life mages and death mages will have some research on this, maybe Conina can talk to this neurotic puppeteer for a while?
Sun Chenghuan recited a spell of a magic shield as fast as he could.
He wanted to try to break through.
It's just that......
A spell struck him at once.
The effect of the magic shield is gone.
"Don't think about running, you can't run away. ”
The little girl puppet said in a cat tone looking at a mouse struggling under its paws.
"......" Sun Chenghuan was desperate.
Don't bring such a scoundrel!
"Come on, tell me, why don't I look like a human anymore!"
“...... You're just a thing!" Sun Chenghuan was a little annoyed, "Being moved around, like a stone statue." Even now, it's just a porter who is using magic to manipulate you. This can be called a human word......"
The words are stuck.
He remembered something.
looked at the puppet.
His eyes were full of scrutiny.
"I'm not a stone! I'm a human!"
The puppet went berserk and rushed directly in front of Sun Chenghuan.
A heavy slap hit Sun Chenghuan in the face.
Sun Chenghuan didn't dodge.
I didn't even want to hide.
His eyes looked at the little girl in front of him, and many thoughts flashed through his mind.
The ghost sent the gods, Sun Chenghuan, raised his left hand and pressed it on the little girl's face.
"Touch it, my skin is elastic ......" The little girl didn't seem to be afraid of Sun Chenghuan at all.
But at this point, it is also stuck.
Unlike Sun Chenghuan who was stunned just now, the reason why this little girl's words were stuck was because of the person who spoke.
Gone.
"Ahh
A man's exclamation rang out.
It's done. A smile tugged at the corner of Sun Chenghuan's mouth.
"Damn you!
The man was visibly furious.
Then, the remaining five puppets immediately moved.
It's just that the formation originally laid out by six people, one less, there is a gap.
And the people who set up the formation were also in a rage, so they were naturally not calm enough.
If you don't calm down, there will be loopholes.
Opportunity!
If you miss this one, maybe never again!
Sun Chenghuan ran directly towards the empty space brought by the missing corner of the six-pointed star array.
At the same time, a strengthening spell was added to himself.
The speed has increased again.
It's a battle of life and death!
"You want to run, no way!"
A puppet ran to Sun Chenghuan's angle, and a magic hit him.
The gap was found, and the five puppets made up for it together, and the efficiency was still very high. Especially if they can be five people in one mind.
The way forward is broken.
Sun Chenghuan didn't have time to say anything regret in his heart.
He had to get himself moving, and he had to dodge the dispel magic or he would turn into a turtle in an urn again.
All the various military theories that he had learned at the Second Academy, the so-called art of war, were like a marquee, and they came full circle in his mind in an instant.
An idea crossed his mind.
Rise from the ashes. Where it is strongest, it is often the weakest.
These puppets are all magicians, and the weakness of magicians is that when they are in close combat with a warrior like him, they don't react fast enough and don't have time to recite spells.
Besides, he now has an advantage, that is, the other party has no idea how he managed to turn that puppet into nothing.
How did it disappear?
Put it in the storage ring!
Since it's not a human being, and it's not an animal in the true sense of the word, it's something that can be put into a storage ring!
Since the storage ring can accept one puppet in it, you can collect another one.
As long as you take in two puppets, it is estimated that the other party will stop attacking, right?
After all, such a puppet that looks like a perfect work of art should be a very valuable thing for a puppeteer!
When the time comes, take the things in your hand, and if you can't figure it out, you can negotiate with him......
And to put the puppet in the ring, you need to be able to touch the puppet with your left hand.
Fight!
Thinking of this, Sun Chenghuan rushed directly towards the nearest puppet to him.
Face-on, a dispel magic.
Sun Chenghuan's body turned around like a turn to the side and let it go.
At the puppet, a shadow arrow was thrown.
The magic shield immediately appeared on the puppet, and the shadow arrow struck on it, canceling it out.
"It's useless! You must die today!"
A beautiful female puppet speaks a man's voice, although this voice sounds quite magnetic and beautiful, but it is still a scary thing.
"Not necessarily. Sun Chenghuan saw that he had arrived at the puppet's side, and a smile appeared on his face.
Reaching out, he touched the puppet.
Another puppet is gone.
Be quiet.
The attack stopped almost instantly.
The remaining four puppets stood there as if they had lost control.
Obviously, their controllers were stunned.
When the puppeteer loses his mind, Sun Chenghuan will not lose his mind.
He knew very well that once he was stunned, it would definitely not end well.
The enemy must be beaten to death with a stick.
At the moment when the four puppets lost control, Sun Chenghuan directly started the "harvest".
The body technique was activated as fast as it could, and it rushed towards the remaining four puppets.
One and another.
By the time the puppeteer reacted and manipulated the remaining two puppets to escape, it was already too late.
The object of the pursuit has changed.
Sun Chenghuan, who was chased like a lost dog, became the pursuer, and the two puppets who had flaunted their might before were on the run.
The chase did not last long.
In the end, only one of the two puppets escaped.
The remaining one was also put into his storage ring by Sun Chenghuan.
The streets were quiet again.
It's like nothing happened.
Sun Chenghuan sat on the ground, panting.
It's dangerous!
I will never do such a stupid thing again......
