Chapter 172: This Man's ...... It's kind of scary
"What is this .....?"
The thick black fog that suddenly rose around him, and a large shadow shrouded the "Starfire" people.
The sudden change made everyone a little overwhelmed.
How did it come out?
Obviously they didn't see any changes.
Even.
In the feeling of the "Starfire" people, the poisonous fog on the other side of the ring was about to dissipate, and it was the time for them to attack.
Outcome.
Just when they were gearing up to dispose of this group of "trapped beasts".
The unexpected happened.
"Be careful!"
Ali and Ashin's reaction speed is still relatively fast.
It's just that their voices have just sounded.
I saw Xiao Phantom, bathed in inky shadows, sharp claws extending out from under the flesh pad, and the entire spirit beast suddenly disappeared in the next moment, and at a speed that the naked eye could not catch at all, it instantly wiped over the center of the ritual.
Burst!!
The people of the nearby "Starfire" could see almost a trace of darkness, and in an instant, an arc was drawn in the air, appearing behind a second-order spirit master.
The man next to him first showed a stunned look, and then a trace of fear and disbelief appeared in the depths of his eyes.
I saw that the man who was attacked opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he could only spurt out a mouthful of blood.
He staggered two steps forward, unable to support himself and fell to the ground.
It can be clearly seen that a wound on the back of his neck that has penetrated deep into the bone marrow, severed the spine, and even the bones that have been flattened can be clearly seen.
"The third." Li Changan's voice came from outside the shadows without the slightest emotion.
Is this really the combat power that should be there after exhaustion?
What's that speed?!
Both Ali and Ashin were shocked and surprised.
Almost as soon as the black fog rose, one of them fell directly under the ferocious attack.
It's hard to imagine that if the initial attack target chooses them, even if they have their own spirit beast protection, will they be able to survive?
And just when Ashin was shocked, Xiao Huan looked at him.
The meaning and banter in this gaze made him sweat all over his body in an instant, as if he was being targeted by some terrifying existence, which made him, who had experienced countless life and death struggles, feel the crisis like death!
Dangerous!
During the ritual, the three poisons diffused greatly affected their bodies, interfering with their reflexes and restricting their movements.
Coupled with the sudden death, and the shadows of the black fog around them, they felt like they were in the abyss.
Ashin had almost raised his current vigilance to the extreme, gritting his teeth even if dizziness and paralysis were constantly interfering with him.
"Stonemon, watch out for ......"
As soon as the words were spoken, Ashin's pupils suddenly shrank.
Little Phantom disappeared from his sight again.
The darkness is like lightning and like a streamer.
When it reappears.
It was already in front of the stone beast, and the pitch-black claws were coming.
Front?!
Ashin, who was on high alert, really didn't expect Xiao Phantom to dare to choose the front.
My heart was filled with excitement.
As long as.
Able to resist it, slow it down, and be limited or controlled to a certain extent, Ashin believes that Ali and the other two will definitely be able to catch it!
Even if Ali and the others didn't react in time, Ashin had already commanded his other spirit beast to wait for the opportunity.
Even though, everyone and the spirit beasts were affected by unknown toxins.
But no matter how fast it is and how strong its strength is, there is only one spirit beast after all.
And obviously, this inexplicable black fog was prepared for it as a spirit beast.
But what Ashin didn't expect was that under his feet and the Stonebeast, a large number of inky tentacles suddenly rose, touching him and the Stonebeast.
The next moment.
The body of a person and a spirit beast suddenly stiffened.
In Ashin's frantically constricted pupils, the look of horror could not be suppressed.
How.....
Hmmm——!!
Ashin watched as he moved farther and farther away from his body and the Stonebeast.
How so?
He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
It was only when he finally came into contact with the ground that he finally reacted.
Originally...... It was his head that fell off......
"The fourth." It is still Li Changan's words.
He is like a simple counting machine, but this number hits the hearts of everyone who remains.
"Iron Ceartipede, Giant Forceps!"
Behind Xiao Phantom, there was a chilling roar.
Whew-
A strong wind came after itself.
Sensing threatened, Phantom tries to dodge.
But it seems that this iron crotipede was summoned from its back, so it was not affected much by the triple poison, and waved its powerful pincers, grabbing the gap at the end of its attack, and swinging it out without hesitation.
Bang!!!
The huge pincers, with all their strength, smashed Xiao Fan's body.
Even if.
It dodges as hard as it can.
But after all, I still couldn't completely avoid it.
Knock –
It was slammed to the ground, rolled a few times, and then barely stopped.
"What are you doing in a daze?!" Ah Li's eyes cracked, and he roared.
Ashin died in front of him, if he didn't resist at this time, would he wait to be slaughtered?
He finally reacted completely from the initial mutation.
And seems to have found a way to cope.
The remaining two second-order spirit masters also recovered from their horror under his angry reprimand.
commanded their respective spirit beasts to besiege the little phantom who was smashed to the ground.
It's just that.
"Meow!!"
I heard Xiao Phantom grit his teeth and whispered, and a burst of inky light flashed away on his body.
Inkmarks!
The wound from the giant pincer quickly transferred to the end of the tail like ink.
And then the shadow loomed over it again.
In a flash, the two spirit beasts that came from the siege escaped into the shadows again.
"It's so fast....."
Outside the scope of the ceremony, although Wu Liang and the three of them could not fully see the situation inside, some vague shadows could still be seen.
In their sight, how long has it been from the time the ritual was triggered to the two figures falling to the ground, and then to Xiao Phantom's attack?
How many seconds?
With such strong strength, do you need to be so troublesome?
Wouldn't it be nice to kill them sooner?
As everyone knows, the reason why Xiao Fantasy can show such lethality is related to all the arrangements made by Li Changan.
If it weren't for the shadow areas of the "realm" and "field" abilities that were arranged through rituals and "surging ink", as well as the influence of the three poisons that had long since dispersed, how could he dare to challenge the two third-order spirit masters plus five second-order spirit masters.
The sheer number of spirit beasts has achieved absolute crushing.
What's more, Li Changan had just entered the third-order spirit master stage, and Xiao Phantom had barely reached the first order of the restricted level, and Kui Dou was still in the negative stage.
Fortunately, among the two third-order spirit masters, Ashin was replaced by Xiao Phantom at the cost of an attack.
There was also one third-order spirit master left, and two second-order spirit masters.
But.
Now they have all reacted.
Back to back with each other, wary of the shadows around you.
It's a bit unrealistic to imagine killing two people in an instant like just now.
But it doesn't matter.
time, on Li Changan's side.
The poison buried in the ground will only make their condition worse and worse.
It's not.
One of the second-order spirit masters, after his body trembled slightly, his consciousness began to blur and diverge somewhat uncontrollably.
"Little Fantasy!"
Through the spiritual scale, Li Changan was able to see the pictures and scenes he saw at this moment.
Know this is an opportunity and not to be missed.
And what Xiao Phantom is waiting for is also this opportunity.
Whoosh –
A shallow ripple slowly spread in the thick fog.
"Be careful!"
Ali snorted in a deep voice.
His two spirit beasts, a restricted-level fourth-order Lingai crab and a restricted-level third-order iron crested centipede, protected him for the first time.
But.
Puff –
Although they were cautious enough, the negative-level spirit beasts that had been continuously affected by the triple poison were as if they had no defense in front of Xiao Phantom.
"Ah——!!h
The contract was suddenly broken, causing one of the last two second-order spirit masters to fall to the ground with his head in his hands.
"The fifth."
It's Li Changan's voice again.
This time, what I heard was that the last two people fell into an ice cellar.
It was as if every time he spoke, someone would lose their lives.
And the little illusion at the end of the attack didn't love to fight, and before the wooden thorns of the Lingai crab were scattered, he disappeared into the shadows again.
"Field ....."
Ali still has a bit of an eye.
I wasn't very sure before, but when I saw the Ink Shadow Three-Tailed Spirit Cat combine with this dense shadow again, I was a little stunned to find that this was not the "realm" that the fifth-order spirit masters liked to use.
Although it is only approximate, it also plays a field effect.
But even if you see through this ritual, it doesn't have any effect.
It can only make his heart sink to the bottom.
And the last remaining second-order spirit master, looking at his companion who fell to the ground and trembled and pulled out, his legs also swung.
If you don't move, you wait for the poison to slowly erode and finally you don't even have the ability to resist, and you will suffer from the unpredictable attack of the black cat.
"I don't want to die! I don't want to die!! ”
In the end, I don't know if it was because the fear in his heart couldn't be suppressed completely, or because the shadow around him inspired the fear in his heart.
He couldn't bear the pressure, and desperately ran in one direction.
As long as you run out of this shadow and out of the scope of this poison, maybe there is still a possibility of survival!
"Idiot!"
Seeing this scene, Ali couldn't help but scold angrily.
But what he didn't expect was that the man ran all the way and was about to rush to the edge of the ceremony, but he was not attacked.
Could it be ......
"Bracket!!"
A dull sound came from outside the shadows.
Followed by.
A sharp spear, pierced from the outside, pierced the man's chest without mercy.
"The sixth."
Bang –
The sound of it slamming on the ground was like a hammer striking Ali's heart.
Li Changan's words made him feel numb in his hands and feet, and he was a little disobedient.
At last.
There was only one person left, two spirit beasts.
"Hmm!"
Ali clutched his chest suddenly, and a smear of dark red blood slowly trickled down the corner of his mouth.
He knew it was poison.
If he stays any longer, even if he doesn't fight, he will die.
Gritted teeth.
"Lingai crabs! Iron Cearede! ”
Under the protection of the two restricted-level spirit beasts, Ali walked unhurriedly towards the shadows.
Hmmm-
The darkness flickered again.
But this time, Ali and his two spirit beasts had no intention of fighting back.
The target is extremely simple, tightly guarding Ali's sides to ensure his safety.
Even if he would suffer from Xiao Fan's ruthless attack for this, Ah Li was gambling, and betting that Xiao Phantom was not enough to kill him in seconds, two spirit beasts that were good at defense.
It's a pity.
If it was a small fantasy from before, maybe there was really nothing to do with two turtle-like spirit beasts.
But now ....
It has just metamorphosed into the restricted level, and has comprehended that the "Phantom Pupil" can have a certain chance to see through the weakness of the opponent, coupled with the information given by Li Changan about the weakness of the Lingai Turtle......
Finally.
It was before Ali rushed out of the shadows, the little illusion with its blue eyes flashed again, and its claws accurately locked the soft underbelly at the junction of the limbs and dorsal armor of the Lingai turtle, and without hesitation, it pierced its claws into it.
Moo!!!
Intense pain, the spirit core that was touched, and the Lingai turtle roared.
His feet subconsciously kicked out, and he slammed it on Xiao Phantom's body, blasting it away.
But under this blow, he completely lost the ability to resist.
Fell to the ground, and his body was scattered into powder.
"Hmm!!"
Ali was drenched in a cold sweat in an instant, and the break of the contract was not something he could easily bear.
Fortunately.
As a third-order spirit master, he can still persevere.
And he and the iron crotipede finally broke out of the shadow and saw the bright sunlight again.
But they were greeted by a man of great stature and knightly armor.
In its hand, a glowing emerald green energy ball was poised to condense.
Lush bombs!
Rumble!!!
Explosive explosion.
The Iron Crutese can still sink, but Ali can't face the impact of the A-level proficiency "Lush Explosive Bomb".
"The seventh."
Li Changan said in a calm tone, and the glimmer in his eyes gradually dimmed.
Buzz –
At the same time, the vast shadows condensed by the great ritual also dissipated into nothingness.
Boom –
I don't know who swallowed the saliva, which seemed extremely abrupt in this quiet environment at this moment.
Li Changan turned his head.
I saw Wu Liang and the three of them looking at the corpse lying in the center of the ceremony with a shocked expression.
There are human beings, and there are even more spirit animals.
"That's it...... That's it? ”
Seven people.
Two third-order spirit masters, five second-order spirit masters.
That's it?
They looked at Li Changan's eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little awe, even fear.
If it is said that they listened to Li Changan before, it was because of Yinlin's orders.
Now they're in real awe.
With such strength, what should you do if you don't listen to him?
"What are you doing in a daze, clean up the battlefield, and hurry up." Li Changan said.
Another wave, he can't take it.
Things, materials, and so on are almost consumed.
"Uh-oh."
Wu Liang and the others reacted immediately, and hurriedly went to clean up the battlefield and collect spirit cores and loot.
Greedy Mo didn't have to think about it, they even wanted to send him two more spirit cores.
Li Changan instructed Kui Dou and Xiao Fan to dispose of some traces of the scene, especially the traces of the ceremony.
Soon.
A group of six people hit the road again.
This time, they were moving a little faster.
"Evergreen Brothers, East and West ......"
Wu Liang looked at Li Changan, who was holding a few empty bottles with a frown, and whispered over the collected spirit cores and other materials.
They are robbers, and they are more skilled than Li Changan in how to deal with spirit beasts and collect loot.
"Thank you." After taking the things, Li Changan thanked him, and in the face of Wu Liang's sneer, he suddenly said, "Wu Liang." ”
"Uh, uh, I'm here."
"You testify to me, and I'm going to find your boss for reimbursement when I go back." Li Changan shook the empty bottle in his hand.
The three bottles of poison were completely empty, even the inkwell of "Stirring Ink" was empty.
The "losses" are huge.
"Huh?"
Wu Liang was stunned.
Didn't the big boss already promise to be paid?
Still need to reimburse something?
"In order to protect you, my stocks have been completely depleted, and if there is another wave of previous pursuits, I will have no choice." Li Changan shrugged.
In fact, it's okay, the confiscated spirit cores and materials are enough to make up for these losses.
It is the poison left by the ancient mother-in-law, which is the mother-in-law's signature poison, and it is estimated that it cannot be bought outside.
Wu Liang shrunk his neck.
"These are ......"
"Poison."
"Huh? What about what was left to us before? ”
"It's also a poison. But it can't be compared with these, it's just to make that group of people cast a mouse trap and make it look like. ”
Finally, there is no crisis of pursuit, and Li Changan also has time to explain the reasons for his series of practices and arrangements.
"Brother Evergreen, what do you mean...... The reason why you throw poison around us is just to stop them from moving, and you quietly send the real poison around them to delay time so that they can be affected by more poison? ”
Wu Liang seemed to react a little.
"Not bad."
Li Changan nodded and put the glass bottle in his pocket.
"What about the trap?" Wu Liang asked again.
"Same effect. The trap was meant to attract their attention so that they wouldn't be so easy to spot the traces of the ritual. ”
The trap that the three of them arranged so seriously is just a decoration?
"The traces of the battle before the ceremony, shouldn't it be ......?"
"The traces of the battle are also to cover up the ritual, and of course, it is also to make them think that we have just experienced a hard battle, and we are already at the end of the crossbow."
The people next to him all pricked up their ears and listened to Li Changan's explanation.
Without waiting for Wu Liang to ask this time, Li Changan continued:
"Wu Liang. What would you do if you were a pursuer and saw that the target they were chasing was in front of you, and they had just gone through a fierce battle and couldn't escape, but they would never give up the struggle and would fight to the death? ”
Wu Liang didn't think about it, and subconsciously continued:
"It's like chasing a spirit beast, slowly consumed. Trapped beasts are the most likely to injure the trappers themselves......"
But as he spoke, his voice grew quieter.
He kind of understood Li Changan's approach.
But my heart was indeed turbulent.
The most formidable enemy is not an enemy that is too strong to be helpless, but an enemy that can calculate the heart of both the prey and the predator.
Playing with people's hearts is the most terrifying.
No wonder Li Changan asked them to follow his instructions even with their expressions.
This is to count the "Starfire" group of people to death.
Li Changan gave him the feeling at this moment, just like the three of them in charge.
The difference is that the three masters are not good at fighting and are good at strategy, while Li Changan is good at strategy and knows how to fight.
The black cat with three tails was much, much stronger than the average restricted-level first-order spirit beast.
There is also the indomitable dryad that only has a negative level, which is also much stronger than an ordinary negative level spirit beast.
"But what if...... They don't follow common sense and attack directly? Wu Liang asked in a low voice.
Li Changan glanced at him, chuckled, and said:
"No, it won't. The more self-righteous people are, the more they feel that they are smart. Besides, the poison I threw at our feet, they had to do it, even if they didn't want to do what I wanted. Coupled with the fact that we are backed by an easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack slope, they will be even more afraid that we will desperately replace a few of them, or a few spirit beasts. ”
Both normal and abnormal situations are counted in him.
Unless, among the people who are chasing this time, there is a spirit beast with dangerous-level strength.
Otherwise, even if it is the seventh or eighth order or even the eighth or ninth order of the restricted level, you will have to drink hatred.
At most, maybe he will pay a little more.
But don't underestimate the effect of the poison left by the ancient mother-in-law, it also has a great effect on the restricted-level spirit beasts.
For dangerous-level spirit beasts, the effect is nothing.
"Oh....."
Wu Liang shrunk his neck again, looked at a few people around him, and slowly widened the distance between him and Li Changan.
This person..... It's a little scary to say.
Li Changan chuckled and shook his head.
looked at Xiao Phantom, who was frowning and licking his tail beside him, and rubbed its head.
Actually, there is one more point he didn't say.
That is, if the person who is chasing is really an enemy that he can't deal with and deal with.
He can also delay a little time with the ritual, and he can guarantee the absolute safety of himself and Xiao Illusion.
Waiting for work and drawing traps is their greatest advantage.
Of course.
There is no need to explain these preparations to Wu Liang and them.
In a word.
"You guys are in charge, you should reimburse me." He was sure.
That is, he has prepared enough things to enter the dense forest this time, otherwise he really can't cope with this situation.
"Uh-huh."
In this regard, Wu Liang and the three of them could only nod their heads in agreement.
It's better not to be an enemy for someone like Li Changan.
Otherwise.
If he was concerned, he would not be able to lay a series of traps around their stockade.
I'm afraid they won't even know how they died.
The only thing to be thankful for.
It's probably that they have a good relationship now.
