Chapter 50:
The acceleration technique is different from the high-end foreign magic of time acceleration, and the principle is only to strengthen the speed of nerve transmission and speed up the somatosensory time.
But even so, as a cheap and practical three-ring arcane, the cost performance is definitely straight after the fireball technique.
To be agile but not agile, to defend but not to defend a mage, to rub a little oil skin and lose combat effectiveness, the battlefield survivability can be said to be extremely low. Acceleration is excellent for increasing the caster's survivability.
Three blue thunder beads floated from Mia's hand, quickly exploding into several arcs of lightning and submerging into her body, occasionally flashing over her limbs and body. A tiny amount of electrical current stimulates Mia's nerves, causing the speed of information transmission between neurons to increase by a sharp level, and the coordination of limbs is also enhanced. But most of all, the world slowed down in Mia's eyes.
This gives her enough time and energy to do what she needs to do urgently.
Sprinting to the side of a dead goblinβa coward who had been scared to death aliveβMia quietly unleashed the corpse blast on the corpse, setting it to trigger the detonation and the explosion mode to be half venom and half corrosive liquid.
Then, Mia caught a half-elf flying from head-on, and took three steps back to counteract the momentum.
The poor half-elf's left hand had been torn off, and a huge wound had been made in his left rib as the arm had fallen off, red intestines hanging from the wound, and even broken ribs could be seen.
It's hopeless.
But Mia didn't intend to save him.
Vampire Touch.
The dark energy condensed in Mia's hand, burning the poor half-elf, and the half-elf, who had already fainted, woke up with a scream. He was re-alive and fainted in pain.
Vampire Touch.
The half-elf, who was one breath away from death, turned into a dried corpse directly in Mia's hands.
Life energy is infused into Mia's arm. Before it could be integrated into the arm. It was replaced by the diversion of life and replaced by magic.
The giant fishmen were still slaughtering, and the number of survivors was reduced from a hundred to two.
A dragonman hides in the corner of the gladiatorial arena, holding a huge broad-bladed halberd to resist the fishman's attack, flanked by huge stone statues for decoration, the fishman can only attack from directly above and directly in front, three consecutive claw strikes are blocked by the halberd, and the claws are branded with several scars. The breath of the highly poisonous mist was also supported by him with the blood of the dragon.
The giant fish-man roared unwillingly, and wanted to continue attacking. The spine was suddenly pierced by a throwing spear, and the barbed spear penetrated deep into the musculature, successfully attracting the attention of the fish-man behind him.
There stood five human warriors in chainmail. The armament is a uniform three-gun throwing spear, a short sword and a small round shield.
The warriors who cooperated with each other threw their throwing spears one after another, and the fish-man was forced to put his hands in front of him, constantly pushing away the throwing spears that came to him, and even so, two of them were still stuck in his chest.
"Boom!" the spear was pulled down one by one in the middle of an angry roar, with a large pile of wriggling flesh at the head of the spear.
After throwing the final throwing spear, the warriors remove the round shield. Use short swords to point at the fishmen, relying on each other to form cover. But the fish-man didn't intend to attack head-on, but opened his mouth and let the yellow mist drift forward slowly.
"Roaring Wind Sword!"
The five warriors swung their short swords at the same time, and the sword wind intertwined, blowing away the mist violently. Seeing that his trump card had been cracked, the fishman rushed forward angrily, wanting to rely on his weight advantage to attack directly.
The lower limbs of the multi-ton body with half fins and half feet slammed heavily on the ground, the sand and dirt flying, the earth shook, and the huge body of the fish-man rolled forward. Because of its size, the Fish-Man doesn't seem to be fast, but in fact, its speed has surpassed that of a sprinting warhorse, and the vortex behind it condenses the stirred up sand and dust into a pale yellow wake.
The fighters didn't dare to hard-connect at all, the difference in size was too great, and resisting the attack was tantamount to using the mantis arm as a car.
"If our fish-men keep going, will these mantis-armed gangsters be able to stop them?"
Mia muttered slowly.
It is impossible for a normal person to face such a fierce attack without running away, but even if you want to escape, you may not be able to run away.
Sure enough, among the warriors who scattered in all directions to dodge, one was hit by the fish-man and turned into a soft mess on the opposite wall, and the sound of bones and muscles bursting made Mia feel slightly uncomfortable.
The other was even worse, originally intended to pass between the fish-man's legs, but at the last moment, the fish-man lowered his head, and his body was sent directly into the fish's mouth full of three layers of sharp teeth.
The screams were only halfway out before they were replaced by the creepy chewing sounds.
The remaining three warriors took advantage of the chaos to each swept out a wind blade, and the fish-man with the corpse in his mouth turned around and waved his hand to disperse.
The fishman flicked its head upwards and threw the corpse into the air, its mouth open to the sky, and swallowed the falling corpse into its stomach in one gulp. The three warriors looked at the fish-man in amazement, and involuntarily turned around to escape.
Where else can they escape in the enclosed arena, not to mention that their speed is not superior to that of the fishmen.
Mia took advantage of the chaos to harvest the two warriors who had been sent flying with the death knell, and the magic power was almost half restored. She looked around, and there were only a few half-elves and goblins hiding in the corners of the field except for the dragonman, and there were only corpses all over the ground.
The only one who still has resistance now is the dragonman.
As for Mia, she had just used the magic rope technique to drill into the astral rift, and she didn't plan to come out for the time being.
"Click!"
The fish-man set his eyes on the worm in the corner, and the half-dragon man raised his halberd as if he were facing a great enemy.
ββββββI'm the dividing line that I haven't seen for a long timeββββββ
"Cangyang foreman, are you sure this can be done?"
"No problem, you can just go on it with peace of mind. β
"But I don't have much IQ left!"
"What are you afraid of, the human brain is amazing, it works non-stop from birth until you have a religious belief. β
β......β
"No matter how low your IQ is, it won't be lower than those believers, what IQ does it take to pretend to be a god?"
After sending Alteria away. Cangyang spreads out the hydrological drawings of the West Sea in the past dynasties. Planning a large-scale salvage of the Moon Angel.
They were the only two who escaped from the wreckage of the battleship. There are still a large amount of supplies left in the cargo hold of the battleship, and if those resources can be utilized, Cangyang is sure to establish a solid support point on this small island.
In particular, the magic furnace, if it can be used, can provide a lot of energy to the support points.
Tria greeted the passing believers as she walked, and flashed into the bushes while no one was looking.
"I can't stand it at all! Preaching to cultists or something!"
Tria held her head and complained in a low voice, obviously this stupid person couldn't do what Cangyang had explained.
"It's okay to even coax and deceive, and the IQ of those who can believe in religion is not much higher. You have to have a sense of intellectual superiority. β
Lilith, who appears behind, begins to bluff.
Tria nodded thoughtfully, straightened her clothes and walked out again.
"Yogg blesses us. β
"The Lord of the Void is with us. β
"All things are one. β
Shrinking to the size of a palm, Lilith burrowed out of Tria's sideburns, "Look, isn't this a good way to learn?"
Instead of responding, Tria greeted the oncoming believers with a mock-up smile.
ββββββββββββ
The Order of Wisdom of the Stars established by Cangyang ruled the island within a month. In fact, most of the believers did not understand the teachings of this order to worship knowledge and technology at all, but after taking the strong combat power of Cangyang and seeing the advanced productivity represented by arcane magic, the number of people in the order has gradually increased.
Since this order attaches great importance to knowledge and technology, it is naturally impossible for Cangyang to tolerate a group of fishermen and peasants, as the top leaders of the order, who used psychic magic to forcibly instill a large amount of knowledge into some people with outstanding intelligence, and then created a group of science and technology priests.
"The god of machines is with you!"
A techno-priest with two alchemical arms on his back walked past Tria. threw off such an unclear sentence.
Tria didn't pay much attention to the priest's corpse-white face: "The One is watching you. β
In fact, Tria didn't know what these words meant, and she didn't get a reply after asking Cangyang. Just being told that any one sentence in it can be used to answer another.
Tria stumbled for days, and was finally able to cope with the believers.
However, it didn't take long for Tria to discover that the prayer circulating among the Tech Priests seemed to be an enhanced version, several times more than the regular version. But she didn't care, anyway, the words she learned were enough to deal with, anyway, as long as those priests said something unclear, she would just pick a random answer.
The first phase of the massive construction has just been completed in the western part of the island, and the use of alchemical reagents and improved seedlings will free up a large number of farmers and produce several times as many crops as before, in addition to saving valuable arable land for the cultivation of high value-added crops and the construction of industrial facilities.
The island is minerally poor, but there is a natural gas field offshore, which is now being mined intermittently on expensive floating platforms, and the Order imports small quantities of pyrite from some volcanic islands in the south to smelt natural gas and iron ore.
The pig iron and all kinds of steel produced now have been swallowed up by the fledgling industrial system, and the industry is constantly tilting towards heavy industry under the manipulation of Cangyang.
Several large steam-powered transports have been launched, carrying a group of colonists to land and settle on a much larger desert island, and geological exploration is now in full swing on the island, but no valuable minerals have yet to be discovered.
After everything was taken over by the tech priests, Cangyang was finally free to do some higher-priority things.
Let's say, find the remaining survivors of the Moon Angel number.
"Mantra Technique, Tenacity!"
Similar to Bear Tenacity, it is a skill that increases body activity (maximum HP) and cell activity (Tenacity Immunity Bonus), but unlike Bear Tenacity, which strengthens connective tissue and lymphatic system, Shingon Tenacity is a simpler and crude skill that directly strengthens the vitality of a single cell.
As a veteran of the struggle against feudal forces and the Imperial Reactionaries for many years, Comrade Mia Scarlett has a wealth of experience in arcane combat, and has prepared the most suitable and beneficial state when the giant fish-man kills the half-dragons.
Because it directly acts on the surface layer rather than changing the physique, the effect is much stronger than the tenacity of the bear.
It's like when you're thirsty. It is to dig a well to quench thirst, the effect is obvious. Or go straight to buy a cart of mineral water.
Mia saw that her health bar had risen by a third. That's how he unhurriedly unhurriedly exerted a false life on himself.
Looking around, the giant fish-man noticed that Mia was still standing on the field except for a group of goblins crouching in the corner with their heads in their hands.
"Husband, you must have the bearing of Mount Tai collapsing in front of you and not changing your face. β
Mia said this with a faint smile on her lips.
The signature smile of the male protagonist at the beginning of the standard golden age.
If this sentence is not said within the protective barrier of the magic rope technique.
Across the astral barrier, Mia unscrupulously strengthened herself one buff after another.
The brute strength of the ox, the grace of the cat, and the tenacity of the bear are the foundations, and the inert armor and shield skills are the standard, and with the addition of the Protective Gang Qi and the Limbo Microstep, Mia straightens up. There was a crackling sound like fried beans all over the body.
A faint golden light shot straight into the sky from Mia's body.
"That's it!"
Someone in the audience screamed, but very few of the mentally polluted cultists remained intellectually normal, and the shout was drowned out by the noise.
"It's an upgrade!
Mia opened her bloodshot eyes and roared, "Eat my big fantasy master!"
The giant fish-man was forced by Mia's momentum, and actually stopped moving forward, and the wind and clouds surged in the gladiatorial arena, forming a strong cyclone at the top of the astral barrier where Mia was located, and the surrounding sand grains were swept into the cyclone, whining due to the ultra-high-speed rotation.
"I'm cute and charming, but I'm going to die!"
Shouting words of unknown meaning. Mia stepped out of the shelter provided by the magic rope. The remnants of the astral barrier shattered into stray mana, replenished into the lightning shield that emerged around Mia.
The fish-man picks up the half-dragonman's used halberd. The hind fin slashed, and he lowered his head and rushed towards Mia.
The earth shook, and the whole world rose and fell with it, as if the island had been shaken by the weight of the fish-man, and it shook as it trampled.
The only one who didn't move was Mia standing in front of the fish-man.
The fish-man's hideous figure was reflected in the dark eyes of the night, but before the murderer could fill the entire field of vision, the huge halberd had already pierced Mia's body.
The massive steel halberd pierced Mia's body, pinning her to the sand, and a strong blast of wind carried the sand in all directions.
"Click, roar, roar!"
"Huh. β
Mia laughed disdainfully. Mia, who was nailed to the halberd, broke into tiny pieces.
Dimensional jumping. At the moment of attack, Mia was no longer in place, and what was pierced by the halberd was only the afterimage left on the ground, but it happened too quickly, beyond the retinal refresh speed of most people.
As is customary, Mia couldn't just leave, and before the fish-man could react, black ripples spread from where Mia had been standing before.
γThe Styx Ship Tracing the Riverγ
Four-ring necromancy.
During the preparation phase, the more living creatures you kill, the more negative energy damage you deal.
Mia collected at least seventy or eighty heads in the gladiatorial arena, and the damage of the negative energy burst almost reached the upper limit of this spell.
The fish-man at the burst point of the spell carried more than half of the damage, and the negative energy formed a visible turbulence to wash the fish-man's body, almost instantly, all the scales on the front of the fish-man aged and fell off, and the exposed skin corroded the wind flower in an instant, leaving only the muscle layer to meet the washing of the Styx.
It was only then that the fish reacted, instinctively lifting the forelimbs that had corroded and exposing the bones, and stopped the halberd in front of them.
The water of the River Styx, with countless souls floating, coalesced into a giant skeleton, which shattered the halberd in one bite and slammed into the fish-man's chest.
Mia saw the blue negative energy directly penetrate the fish-man's torso, piercing through the rib gap in her back. The blood mist and minced flesh exploded, but they didn't travel far before they were drawn back by the skeleton as if the gravity field was distorting.
"Protective Elementals, Negative Energy!"
The positive energy shield that had been prepared for a long time was stopped in front of Mia.
The skeleton's hollow eyes looked at Mia, then roared to the sky and exploded into powder. Most of the negative energy shockwave was neutralized by the shield, and the rest was fighting with the massive amount of life force that Mia had accumulated in ZΓ i's body before.
However, no matter how strong the negative energy is, it is a rootless tree after all. It was quickly diluted and neutralized under the burning of those temporary life forces.
"Actually, me. There is a phobia of the stage. β
Mia wiped her cold sweat. In a voice that is neither high nor low, begin to read out the prepared manuscript.
"In fact, my social skills are very poor, and I hate to show my face, so I once swore that if anyone forced me to do any social behavior, as long as this person was not my friend, I would kill them!"
NEET's outrage.
"You've had enough of watching the circus!
Mia yelled her last words at the swaths of corpses in the audience.
The final burst of negative energy from the Styx ship swept through the entire Colosseum, and except for a few physically strong individuals, almost all of the spectators were served by Mia.
A fish-man who looked like a great priest struggled to raise the skull staff in his hand. Mia's skull was shattered by a magic missile.
"It's okay if you still miss the net, Lao Tzu will clear the field!"
While the concentration of negative energy around him had not decreased, a huge plane gate opened at the previous negative energy explosion point.
"Allow me to introduce you to my pet. β
Mia bowed to the auditorium with her left hand on her chest and performed a standard butler salute.
The massive corpse hound leaps out of the cracked dimensional door.
The following content is too bloody, please make up for it yourself.
After eating the corpse, the corpse hound lay at Mia's feet, resting his huge head on his forearm.
"Let's go back first when you're done eating, right?"
The hound nodded, and stood up to jump through the plane door.
Then the earth trembled again.
"What's going on?"
Mia was knocked to the ground, struggling to get up with her hands on the ground. However, the shaking was so strong that I couldn't stand up at all.
The ordinary-robed Fishman priest rose to the sky from outside the Colosseum: "Thank you so much, foreign mage. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to plan such a wonderful blood sacrifice to please my lord!"
Mia was stunned. Only then did I react, I had been playing for so long before co-authoring, and I was all acting according to their script.
Before Mia could reply, the archpriest began to shout some inexplicable notes, each character challenging the limits of the vocal organs, and even some syllables were no longer produced by the vocal cords of humanoids.
The voices of the second and third responders rang out from the outside, and the number of people increased, and the chanting of unknown meaning merged into a strange and distorted song, with no melody to speak of, but with a certain uniform tone, which was completely indistinguishable when carefully distinguished, and the mere listening to it polluted the soul.
The tremor of the earth disappeared, but only stopped, the calm before the storm, and then the huge tremor made people mistakenly think that millions of tons of explosives had exploded on the continental shelf under the island, and Mia was shaken into the air, and before she could hit the ground, a second explosion had followed, and the dust was shaken in all directions.
The huge size of the corpse hound was completely burdensome in the face of such a catastrophe, and the legendary undead creatures that were originally as fierce as the abyss refining demons were now like newborn puppies in the hands of urchins, rolling around in the Colosseum.
Mia hurriedly cast the levitation technique, floating above the ten-meter ceiling, and beckoned all the protective spells she could think of to herself.
The entire island is covered in spatial locks, and Mia can't escape with teleportation now, not to mention that the remaining magic doesn't allow her to cast such an extravagant spell.
The ocean was already boiling, and the shock waves from the shaking of the island's continental shelf rippled in circles, and the nearby marine creatures quickly swam towards the open sea as if they sensed something, from sardines to dragon whales, all of which were mixed into an army of escapees.
"Wangcai, hurry back, Wangcai!"
Just as Mia was urging the hound to return to the underworld, the shaking suddenly stopped.
The corpse hound struggled to his feet, and although the corpses on his body were quite damaged, the damage as an undead creature was not enough to break his muscles and bones.
But just as the hounds were about to take advantage of this opportunity to flee back, the sand beneath the hound's feet began to fluctuate violently.
A huge black shadow scurried out of the sand, and the hound disappeared into its impossibly large mouth.
Quack, quack, quack.
The corpse hound was only chewed twice and swallowed.
The sand that had been stained with the huge black shadow poured down, and Mia saw what it was.
A giant fish-man over forty meters tall.
The one that Mia killed before was no different from the difference between a mushroom and a mushroom cloud.
"Click~~~~!!"
A roar of more than 140 decibels exploded in the sky, and the nearby believers were all shocked and vomited blood. Mia relied on the sonic barrier formed by the Silence Technique to avoid this strike.
Dagon.
Half-man, half-fish god.
Mia knew she was in big trouble this time.
