Chapter 242: Final Word (6)
"What the hell is that?"
The moment they saw the corpses of the earth, all the camel people felt a chill from the bottom of their hearts.
It was as tall as a few dozen people, and was basically made up of yellow bones, brown dirt, gray rocks, and a few pieces of carrion hanging here and there.
The smell of rancid death in the breeze was disgusting, the smell made your throat feel spicy and your stomach churned.
The battlefield is already filled with the thrill of fear, anger and bloodlust from people who crave violence and destruction.
A few well-rested elemental shamans—the weather-altering spells were exhausting, but they still wanted to destroy the terrible and false existence in front of them as soon as possible—the dead thing wielding fists the size of a tree trunk was itself a blasphemy against nature.
The most violent and deadly elements, such as fire and lightning, are summoned first to strike at the earth's corpses. The latter, however, is not foolish, and the soul of the camel sinner gives it a very cunning character.
With agility that didn't match its size, the Earth Corpse leaped to its feet and leaped into the air behind a piece of basalt, using it as a shield for itself.
The attacks of the elemental shamans fell on the basalt, sending stone chips to a spree, but the real target did not take much damage.
The huge undead caressed the rock in front of it, and the "stone shaping technique" was activated, and its form gradually merged into the envelopment of the rock. "Boom", the rock possessed by the corpses of the earth rolled up, and rushed straight towards the formation of the camel army.
Many of the soldiers were still in Jamahri, and they had not yet had time to withdraw, and only the camel emperor remained in the rear. The oversized orb of rock rushed at them with an unstoppable force, crushing everything in its path: trees, deer and firewood, and the Emperor's own guards.
"Vertical Zier dare!"
Faced with the oncoming crisis, the Camel Emperor chose to temporarily avoid the edge, but after being surrounded by the Bactrian nobles and his attendants and hiding on a high ground, he immediately looked at the tragic situation in the camp.
Grabbing a spear from the hands of the guards beside him, the Hump Emperor aimed at the rock ball where the corpses of the earth were hiding, twisted his waist and bent his knees to throw the spear. As the presiding priest of the Twin Peaks, although not often revealed, he is actually a high-ranking priest of the camel god. In addition, because of the direct bloodline of the camel god, the divine energy he can mobilize is actually far more than that of ordinary camel god priests.
Flying spears tore through the air, and massive rock balls were unavoidable. The divine power lingered on the spear, and upon contact with the defiled aura emanating from the corpses of the earth, it exploded violently.
From the point where the spear was nailed, the crack instantly filled the entire rock ball, and the "clatter" of shattering suddenly sounded, and the earth corpse staggered out of the attached rock, roaring threateningly in the direction of the man who had inflicted heavy damage on it.
"This skeleton monster must be the follow-up of those previous monsters," since they didn't know the name of the earth corpse, the camel priests simply named it "Skeleton Monster", and they were also actively looking for a way to deal with it, "The divine energy seems to have done great harm to it, we ...... it"
What happened after that was a model of an instant slap in the face - the corpses of the earth that were forced to fall out of the rock ball stretched out their bone claws, and the "Stone Shaping Technique" was launched again, and the rock fragments scattered on the ground were like magnets, and they were absorbed together to form a basalt giant stick.
The earth corpse picked up the giant rod and waved his hand to swing away a group of camel warriors who surrounded him, followed by another blow. Within a few breaths, at least a dozen camels were knocked down, a few unfortunately died on the spot, and most were wounded.
For the average undead, the priest is indeed their nemesis, and the supernatural power is a poison that can "rot the intestines".
But the earth corpses are different, because their bodies and souls are protected by the tainted earth element, so they can hold out for a while even if they are baptized by divine power.
Unless these priests are able to summon the power of goodness like the holy warrior Jensen did, they will be able to defeat such an evil as the corpses of the earth in one fell swoop—but the priest of the camel god obviously does not have that ability, after all, the gods he worships are not good at it.
"The affairs of the earth still have to be left to the earth to be solved," seeing the corpses of the earth beginning to wreak havoc, an elderly elemental shaman stepped out of the shadows behind the camel emperor and said in a frosted voice, "Caesar, you wait. ”
"Master," the Camel Emperor bowed his head and bowed, he was extremely respectful, "thank you for your help, I will personally bless you." ”
The "blessing" here is not an ordinary kind word, but a divine technique in which the priest prays to the gods to give full blessings to himself or others.
For Mages, Blessing increases the chance of success and concentration, while for Warriors, Blessing allows them to attack more accurately and defend more comprehensively. All in all, this is a magic technique that can improve the "lucky attribute" of the recipient. Moreover, all magic that involves fate, luck, etc., consumes more divine power from the priest.
To perform a "blessing" for others, the Emperor of the Camel People, even if he was favored by the descendants of the gods, prayed for about ten consecutive days afterwards, and at the same time insisted on fasting and bathing. Many times, he is not even willing to continue to twist the "blessing" for himself. But at this time, he was willing to condescend for the sake of an elemental shaman, which shows how much this old camel man is respected by him.
"Thank you very much. The camel shaman said to himself, and he began to summon the elementals at the same time.
As one of the few remaining shaman masters in the empire, this elderly camel man has always served as an enshriner to the Bactrian Temple, and his true strength is not far behind that of the first elemental shaman among the camels, the great warlord Gelsan.
Even in some areas of the shamanic way, the summoning of earth elements, he explored much more than Kelsan. And it is precisely because of this that this elderly camel is revered by other shamans as "the wrath of the earth".
The Wrath of the Earth slowly took two steps forward, his hands raised above his head, and his mouth began to chant aloud. The transition between stillness and movement shows the earth's transition from calm to restless.
And this situation makes any onlooker feel a throbbing from the bottom of his heart.
The earth-to-earth corpse that was wielding a basalt rod to attack the camel army was the most touched, and its eyes were fixed on the highland, but instead of making unnecessary noises such as roaring, it rushed towards it with its long legs.
The old camel man who was chanting shamanic spells gave it a very bad feeling, and the earth element, which was originally like an arm, seemed to be cut off by some kind of existence with a stronger affinity, and it was forcibly separated from itself.
"This elemental shaman is a bit strong," Standing on a nearby high hill, the half-lich felt the elemental fluctuations caused by the casting of the Earth Fury, and turned his head directly one hundred and eighty degrees, and said to Brach, "You have to help that earth corpse." ”
A few desert kobolds who were standing close together were startled by Sneijder's "head-turning" move. Bradch didn't have time to pay attention to the steampunk half-lich's tricks, and he was using the unique way of a sorcerer to understand the shaking of the earth.
"I'm afraid it's not enough to rely on these warriors of the Dragon Clan," the ground trembled before his words fell, "Your Excellency Pasha said, then you will have a decisive weapon in your hand this time-the corpses of the earth, I am afraid you can't afford to be called 'the final word'." ”
As Bradch explains, the corpses of the earth are indeed just a façade. It was created to allow the camel priest to desperately consume a wave of divine magic, thereby weakening the camel god he worshipped.
"Well, I can't fool you," the steampunk half-lich shrugged humanely and pulled out two crates from the space gear, "Here's the antidote that Mr. Palu has configured, give the warriors a point, and each eat a small packet." ”
"Antidote?" Blatch immediately thought of something.
On the battlefield in the distance, earth corpses, weakened by the loss of earth elementals, fell to their knees. Several giant earth elemental golems summoned by the wrath of the camel shaman surrounded him and slammed the undead creature that had desecrated nature.
Holding the totem staff in one hand to keep the spell casting, the old camel man gasped, and several apprentices who had "seen in their eyes" hurriedly stepped forward and helped him to stand firmly.
"Fortunately, it is not dishonored," he said to the camel emperor who blessed him, even with the blessing of divine magic, several super-large shamanic spells were released one after another, and it still had a certain burden on his aging body, "Wait a while, let the warriors gather the fragments of that monster and burn them all to prevent future troubles." ”
"Master, rest assured. ”
The Camel Emperor immediately said he knew, and at the same time told his attendants to quickly inform all the war priests to dispatch their men, and to tell the others to hurry up and prepare the ignition materials for incineration.
At this moment, a terrible impact was heard, and everyone felt that their internal organs were shaken. When he looked closely, it turned out that it was a giant earth elemental golem that smashed the pelvis of the "skeleton monster", causing its upper body to separate from its lower body.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The monstrous monster was now lying on the ground, waving its arms around, trying to fight back with its fingers hooked into the basalt rod, but its fingers were badly fractured and its ligaments were damaged.
The "siege" of the giant earth elemental puppet continued, and the earth corpses were pressed against the ground and rubbed.
First, the two arms were torn off at the elbows, then the bones in the torso collapsed and peeled off in large areas, and finally the skull was smashed into powder by a powerful hammer blow.
The monsters that had been slaughtering all directions not long ago were now left with piles of rocks, huge fragments of bone and ashes, and lifeless, smoking ligaments still wrapped around them, and gray smoke and bone meal fluttering in the wind.
After completing the work, the giant earth golem bent down to salute the summoner and returned to the elemental plane.
The camel warriors gathered and searched carefully at the devastation, and they were ordered to "leave not a single bone left in the earth." In order to accomplish this task, the elemental shamans who had originally gone to trace the traces of the dragon clan also withdrew and assisted the warriors in burning the fragments of the earth corpses that had been picked up on the spot.
"It's a pity," Snead, who was watching the scene from afar, said again, "that it can't be used as spellcasting material after being polluted. ”
He was referring to the camel people who were gathered together.
