Chapter 300: The Passage of Locusts
Relying on the duration of the Dark Realm, the three of them launched various long-range attacks on the Son of Heaven.
Judging from the previous performance of the Son of Heaven, he should not be able to see the darkness outside the circle of words and spirits, the enemy is dark and I am clear, and he can only defend passively.
"Obstacles!"
At this time, the Son of Heaven stayed in place, leaning on the transparent barrier before, resisting all the attacks around him.
The moment all magic touches the barrier, it will automatically fail, which can be called absolute defense, but the price is that the magic power of the Son of Heaven is rapidly declining, and it is obviously extremely expensive to maintain this absolute defense.
In less than half a minute, half of the Son of Heaven's nearly 10,000 mana value had evaporated. His spiritual realm is very powerful, and if used wisely, it can have the effect of changing one's life, but the 'fair use' here definitely does not include being a sandbag like now.
At this time, the Son of Heaven also had to change his strategy, gave up this way of defending without dead ends, chose to withstand some ordinary attacks, only resisted those magic attacks with too high damage, and began to try to move in the direction of Mu You and the others, preparing to counterattack.
In this way, the consumption rate of mana has indeed slowed down, but the wounds on the Son of Heaven are also increasing rapidly.
"Heal!"
After the injuries had accumulated somewhat, the Son of Heaven used the Spirit of Words again, and the injuries all over his body healed instantly.
But at this moment, a sharp knife light on his side struck coldly, and the Son of Heaven's perception in the realm was different from ordinary people, and he immediately noticed this, knowing that this was the woman who used the sickle just now. Remember the URL
However, this knife he did not dodge by the spirit of words. The purpose of his coming here was not to fight to the death with the other party, but to investigate intelligence, and it was very necessary to feel the strength of the other party's attack firsthand.
The Son of Heaven leaned on his physical attributes to move to the side, although he couldn't completely dodge, but he also avoided the vital point.
The scythe slashed across his shoulder, bringing out an undetectable streak of blood.
Lin Xue maintained the combat habit of retreating with one blow, and immediately withdrew from the range of words after the hit.
The Son of Heaven didn't care, thinking it was just an ordinary attack and defense.
But then, he suddenly noticed that a skull-shaped mark appeared on the position where he had just been attacked.
The mark itself did not bring him any substantial negative effects, but the moment he saw the mark, it made the Son of Heaven feel a disgust and fear that came from instinct.
The Son of Heaven didn't know what it was, but he had a feeling that if he didn't get rid of it as soon as possible, it might bring unbearable consequences......
Almost a knee-jerk reaction, the Son of Heaven immediately used the spirit of words to lift the mark: "Solution! ”
At the sound of an order, the imprint slowly faded.
However, the mark was successfully lifted, but the consumption surprised the Son of Heaven.
The remaining half of the magic power in his body was seen as if it had disappeared out of thin air!
A simple 'solution' word actually consumed nearly 4,000 points of his magic power?
When the Son of Heaven was distracted, Mu You's attack in the distance would not stop.
The Son of Heaven, whose magic power was at the bottom, temporarily lost the opportunity to use his words again, and as a result, he was instantly slashed by several wind blades, bleeding all over his body, and his life was sharply reduced.
However, just as Mu You was about to beat the water dog and continue to attack, he heard the Son of Heaven who fell to the ground in the distance, and two words clearly spit out from his mouth.
"Self-destruct."
In the next moment, the spot was suddenly covered by a large cloud of firelight, and in the crackling sound, the body of the Son of Heaven directly turned into powder and disappeared in place.
"It's self-destructing again......"
The Son of Heaven's self-explosion didn't hurt anyone, but Mu You could only watch the Son of Heaven disappear and couldn't do anything.
Words and spirit enchantment + self-explosion teleportation, no wonder the other party dares to come alone, this combination is too laissez-faire.
Shaking his head, Mu You stepped forward and picked up the map fragment on the ground where the Son of Heaven disappeared.
When the Son of Heaven died, it happened to be within the half-hour stealing time of the monster thief's appointment, and during this period, the fragments must have exploded after death, but the provincial Mu You pressed the table.
At the end of the battle, Lin Xue and Xiaoya saw that Mu You had picked up the fragments, and they all came to watch.
"What's the number?" Lin Xue asked.
"No. 1 ......"
Mu You looked at the number on the fragment and sighed secretly.
In fact, he had already expected this result.
The Son of Heaven's action, from the result, was to send Mu You a fragment in vain. If it is a piece of relatively high value, even if it is marked, the other party may not be willing to give it away.
As for Fragment No. 1, only one-third of the area depicts the map of Sky City, and the rest is marked with the external environment and entrance.
In other words, Fragment 1 was worth a fortune before entering the city, but once it found the entrance and entered the interior of Sky City, the value of this fragment would depreciate sharply, and its importance would be far less than that of Fragments 3 and 6.
It was precisely because Mu You's appointment letter was coincidentally marked with the No. 1 fragment that the Son of Heaven was willing to use it as bait, on the one hand, to lure Mu You away, and on the other hand, to probe some information by the way.
Exchanging a piece of fragment that is almost useless for some important information is obviously a good deal in the eyes of the other party.
"Anyway, with the map, at least you won't get lost in Area 1 next......"
Mu You took out the previous fragments and put them together, and the contents of the No. 1 fragment were suddenly displayed, and sure enough, the path out was clearly marked.
Now he has the fragment of No. 125 in his hand, and more than half of the road to the center of the city is already a smooth road.
As for the missing three and six, Mu You estimated that there was not much chance of snatching them, the Son of Heaven and the others had suffered a loss before, and they would definitely not give him another chance to kill and explode, and most of these two fragments had been transferred away in advance.
In other words, in the three and six areas, he can only think of other ways.
"Let's take one step at a time......"
Mu You shook his head, picked up the No. 1 map and looked at it, preparing to write down the contents of the map first.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt a sound of breaking the air behind him, and subconsciously avoided it.
"Be careful!"
Lin Xue's voice sounded half a beat slower, and at the same time as she spoke, she had already rushed forward with a sickle, and the blade slashed, easily cutting a soft creature in half in mid-air.
"Octopus?"
Mu You couldn't help but be stunned when he looked at the severed creature on the ground, it turned out to be a palm-sized octopus.
"How can there be octopuses in this kind of place?" Mu You's face was strange, there were no creatures in this broken city, not even insects and plants, it was completely a dead city, and it was too strange for a live octopus to suddenly appear at this time......
Just thinking about it, I saw the octopus that was cut in half on the ground squirmed, and the broken body was like a slime, and it actually fused together again, forming a complete octopus, screaming, rushing towards Mu You, and squirting a mouthful of acid in the middle of the air.
This little octopus is only four or five levels, and its attack power is very weak, Mu You let the venom at will, and the arc sword brush brushed a few times, and then unloaded it into eight pieces.
But what is surprising is that under such an injury, the minced meat on the ground is still squirming hard, as if it wants to reunite together.
Mu You simply raised his wand, the tip was pointing downward, and the flames gushed out, and barbecued a bunch of octopus minced meat on the ground.
As a result, the imaginary scene of minced meat turning directly into charcoal-grilled octopus did not happen, and the minced meat seemed to have a high resistance to flames, and it still wriggled and gathered in the flames.
"An octopus that can't be killed?" Mu You is a little interested, the survivability of this thing is too perverted.
Just as he was about to continue his research, Xiao Ya's exclamation suddenly sounded behind him: "Old, boss, look at it!" ”
Mu You and Lin Xue looked in the direction she pointed, but the scene that caught their eyes made the two of them tremble at the same time.
Not far away, on the street, countless small octopuses with identical appearances emerged from various buildings, all crawling towards them.
The walls, the streets, the stone carvings, and the doors are all covered with dense octopuses, and this overwhelming scene is definitely a nightmare for all people with dense phobia!
“?”
Mu You looked confused, what is this?
The next moment, the octopuses seemed to riot en masse, quickly piling up in front of them, and finally condensed into an oversized octopus foot.
An eye and mouth opened on the surface of the octopus's feet, and after seeing Mu You below, he suddenly let out an angry roar as if he had seen an enemy, and then the huge octopus feet twitched and crushed towards the three of them.
The three of them hurriedly jumped away, causing the octopus foot to pounce in the air, shaking the ground three times, forming a huge ravine in place.
Immediately before the three of them had time to breathe, the octopus foot instantly transformed into countless small octopuses, scrambling out of the ravine and continuing to chase and kill the three of them.
Now the three of them can only continue to run, as for turning back to fight? I can't think that this number, coupled with the survivability shown by this small octopus, is not at all something that can be dealt with by ordinary means, once it is submerged by a school of octopuses, it is almost certain to die, and at this time it can only escape.
"You two come in, I'll run!"
Mu You took the time to take out an empty backpack, opened the entrance, and let Lin Xue and Xiaoya enter.
This place is also a realm of its own, and the backpack where the chocobo was placed before could not be opened in it, and the mount could not be used, so it could only run on two legs at this time.
After the two of them got into the backpack, Mu You accepted the package, grabbed it and started to run away again. He looked back halfway through, and the octopuses were still desperately pursuing, as if they recognized him.
"No, what a hatred...... Mu You muttered secretly.
When the huge octopus foot appeared just now, the familiar coercion emanating from its body, Mu You had already confirmed the identity of this thing: the octopus king!
Mu You didn't know how the Octopus King got stuck here, but at the moment, this thing was much weaker than the Octopus King in the outside world, and it was probably only about one-tenth of its strength.
But even so, this thing is a creature that is infinitely close to the legendary level, and it is definitely not something that he can fight against now.
Just when Mu You was running for his life in Area 1.
Far in the other direction.
The Son of Heaven was resurrected here and awoke from the darkness of the earth.
When I opened my eyes, I was surrounded by teammates who had been granted divine power.
At this time, the position is close to the exit of Area 1.
The Son of Heaven breathed a sigh of relief, and his forehead was still sweating slightly.
"How?" Seeing the Son of Heaven appear, the smiling and demon people next to him hurriedly ran to ask.
"Lost ......"
"Isn't it normal to lose? It's too risky! Smiled and sighed.
"But the harvest is worth it." The Son of Heaven said.
"Oh? What do you see? The demon asked.
"Those two people are not Legendary!" The Son of Heaven said with certainty.
"Really?"
"Are you sure?"
The others' eyes lit up when they heard this, and they hurriedly asked.
"Hmm."
The Son of Heaven nodded: "The specific level is uncertain, but judging from the attributes of the opponent when fighting, the level of the ghost captain should be around level 22-23, as for the other red sickle girl, the level is even lower, her points are more extreme, it is not easy to judge the level, but it will definitely not exceed level 21......"
"And what about the other one?" Asked with a smile. When they entered, they had already received information that the other party had entered with three people, except for Captain Ghost and the Red Scythe Maiden, there was one more.
"The other, the ID is hidden, the identity is unknown, but this person is very mediocre in other aspects except for his summoning ability, he should just be an ordinary player, but he can be specially brought over by Captain Ghost, and maybe he has some special abilities...... "Tianzi said.
"In short, don't worry about this person, Captain Ghost's words, his strength is indeed very strong, and the means of fighting are also very rich, but as long as they don't meet one-on-one, they don't have to worry too much, at least their ability to be promoted to the legendary level should be unusable here......"
The Son of Heaven paused as he spoke, and his eyes suddenly became solemn: "Actually, what really needs to be paid attention to is the red sickle girl, to be exact, the sickle in her hand......"
"Oh? How? ”
"Whether they are legendary or not, that scythe is genuine, I can't say the specifics, in short, be careful not to be hit by that scythe, even if it is a wipe......," said the Son of Heaven.
When the others heard this, they looked at each other and couldn't wipe it, is it so terrifying?
"However, since the other party's strength is only like this, can we ...... Straight shot? Smile thought about it and said.
They didn't dare to lead the army to directly collide with the ghost captain head-on before, because they were afraid that the other party's legendary rank could easily wipe out the ordinary members of their team, and their advantage would be drastically reduced at that time.
And now, since it has been confirmed that the other party does not have the strength of the legendary level, it seems that the tactics of the sea of people can be used to bully the other party by numbers......
"I think I can, too!"
When the demons and others heard this, they were also quite moved. They are obviously the strongest side on paper, but they have been suppressed by the two so-called legendary ones for so long, and they seem to be passive everywhere, and many people in the team have long been unhappy, so they are looking forward to fighting a turning stick.
"Captain Ghost has obtained the number one shard, and he will be approaching it soon...... Let's set up an ambush in front of Entrance 2 in front of us. The Son of Heaven groaned.
It may take some time to go head-to-head with Captain Ghost now, and it will be difficult to kill the opponent and grab the second shard, but as long as you can kick the opponent out, it will definitely be worth it.
As for Jack's gang on the other side, he didn't pay attention to it.
Everyone else was excited when they heard this, and the Son of Heaven meant that he was obviously looking for the other party to fight head-on.
Without further ado, everyone immediately rushed to the intersection in front of them, and quickly hid themselves in their own positions, waiting for the ghost captain to approach.
And Mu You didn't let them wait too long, and after about ten minutes, everyone heard a noisy sound coming from the street entrance in the distance.
"It's coming!"
Everyone was on standby, weapons and attacks in hand.
This is the only place to enter Area 2, so you don't have to worry about the other party's detour.
The voice...... What's wrong? Smiling and listening to the movement in the distance, he couldn't help frowning.
Not only him, but others also sensed that something was wrong at this time, because even the ground was trembling slightly at this moment.
Didn't you say that there were only three of them? It's like a great migration of animals, what kind of noise is it going to make?
Confused, the noise ahead was rapidly approaching.
A few seconds later, a figure took the lead in crossing the street corner in front of them, revealing itself to the ghost captain.
At this moment, Captain Ghost was rushing towards them, seemingly completely unaware of the trap ahead.
However, before everyone could be happy, they saw behind Captain Ghost, countless soft creatures emerged, overwhelmingly climbing along the streets in all directions, approaching this side quickly, what locusts transited, zombies besieged the city, it was not enough to describe the density of this creature in front of him.
The people in ambush here were all dumbfounded.
"It's ...... What is it? ”
Chapter ...... Fish? ”
"How can there be octopus ...... in this place?"
"There are at least more than 100,000 of them......"
……
The scene in front of them was so intense that everyone didn't know for a moment whether to attack or not, seeing Captain Ghost approaching.
If you shoot now, it seems that you will burn yourself......
At this time, it was Mu You who took the lead in discovering the hidden people around him.
"Yo, they're all here!"
"That's right, come and help!"
