Chapter 214, Clever Scheme
The four of them went down to the tomb again, and when they came to the two stone doors, they saw that the puppets had resumed their neat queues, and they were still standing mightily and solemnly, except that one puppet was missing from the first row, and the other puppet was missing an arm.
Duan Wutian said: "Qingshi, quickly take out your big net and let us open our eyes." ”
"Isn't it!" Chen Tianye was stunned and said, "Still using the net? ”
"Didn't Qingshi say that he wanted to catch them all?" Duan Wutian said, "He naturally made a super net!" Right, bluestone? ”
"Shh Chen Tianye said disdainfully, "It's a metaphor to catch them all!" Duan Bald, do you have any culture? How big a net does it take to cover these thousands of puppets? No way! ”
"That's it," Xiang An also said, "Even if you really get such a big net, you have to be able to use it!" Who has such a great ability to really cast out a net and catch all these puppets? Let's say you're uneducated, your imagination is quite rich! ”
"It's what Qingshi said, 'catch them all'! I didn't say it again. Duan Wutian also figured it out, grabbed his bald head and asked, "How are you going to get the bluestone?" ”
Ignoring their bickering, Bluestone took out a few items and fiddled with them. When Chen Tianye saw it, the three of them all gathered around, only to see Qingshi assembling a few things in his hand, but it was an iron vest.
It is said to be a vest, but it is better to say that there is an iron plate at the front and back, and several strips of cloth are connected in the middle. Aoshi passed his head between two strips of cloth, the two strips of cloth hung over his shoulders, and the two iron plates hung on his chest and back, one in front of the other.
"This is cut from the puppet," Duan Wutian stretched out his fingers and tapped on the iron plate on Qingshi's chest, listening to the sound of the iron plate making a bell, and said, "Well, it's hard enough!" But if you use this thing as armor, I'm afraid you won't be able to stop these puppets' two shots and three knives. ”
After listening to Duan Wutian's words, even Qingshi couldn't help but despise his IQ. Because he said, "What armor?" If you want to protect my Xuanyuan armor, it is a hundred times better than this. ”
"What's that?" Chen Tianye also stretched out his fingers and asked curiously, "What's the use?" ”
"This is my talisman!" Qingshi said proudly, "With it, I won't be afraid of puppets attacking me." ”
"Isn't that still armor?" Duan Wutian said disapprerovingly.
"If you have to say it's armor, that's right," Bluestone laughed, "but the function of my armor is not to fend off the attacks of the sword, but to keep them from attacking me at all!" ”
"I see!" Chen Tianye said loudly, "Invisibility cloak!" ”
"That's fine!" Qingshi said, "I have figured out the identification system of these puppets and the enemy, the front and back of this vest contain the spirit devices of the puppets to identify friend and foe, wear it, and then use my Xuanyuan armor to shield my breath, these puppets will treat me as the same kind, and they will not attack me." Isn't that the same as invisibility? ”
"That's wonderful...... "Duan Wutian laughed, "In this way, if you take that big hammer and smash them one by one, they won't fight back, right?" ”
"They're not attacking anymore, why are you smashing them?" Chen Tianye said, "Qingshi definitely wants to transform these puppets one by one and turn them into his own personal armament. That's a cow! ”
"That's natural, Qingshi said that he wants to make these puppets into his own army!" Xiang An said, "But I said Qingshi, it took you more than ten days to get a puppet, and if you want to subdue these puppets one by one, it won't take three years or five years?" I think you'd better leave these puppets alone. You go straight through the puppet and open the stone door, and first loot the burial treasure of the sea god! ”
"Yes, yes!" Duan Wutian and Chen Tianye agreed together, "Loot the treasure first!" ”
It's rare for these three guys to agree.
"It won't take that much time to get these puppets, I said, 'Mountain people have their own tricks'!" Qingshi smiled and said, "It's okay if you don't get these puppets first, but then I am the only one who can go to the door to hunt for treasure, and if there is danger at that time, you can't come to help me." What if there is no danger! I'm alone with the treasures! ”
"No, no, no! The puppet must be dealt with first. How can you go on an adventure alone? The three of them spoke in unison, and this time they were more unanimous.
"Then wait here," Aoshi smiled, "Look at me and go in and collect them!" ”
After Qingshi finished speaking, he raised his legs and stepped into the stone gate and walked towards the puppet army array.
Qingshi had thought that these puppets would not react to his entry, but the result was not exactly what he imagined. As he walked into the range of the puppets, the eight puppets in the front row all moved, some raised their blades, and some turned towards the bluestone, but fortunately, although they sensed that something was wrong, they did not attack at the first time.
Bluestone had an idea, and walked a few steps to the empty seat in the first row, imitating the posture of a puppet and standing still. Sure enough, as soon as he fell into place, the puppets immediately returned to their original posture and stopped moving.
Seeing that they had deceived these puppets, Duan Wutian and the other three all laughed.
"Stones!" Duan Wutian smiled, "They won't beat you anymore, but it's not a way for you to stand still like this!" ”
Qingshi ignored them, and suddenly turned around and came behind a puppet in the second row behind him, and without waiting for these puppets to make any moves, Qingshi pushed the puppet in the second row to the position where he was originally standing.
This can confuse the puppets, and the puppets in the first and second rows all sense that something is wrong and are a little ready to move, but they don't fully understand the problem. Several of the golems raised their swords but didn't know who to attack.
Qingshi kept walking under his feet, casually pushing the puppets around him to change positions, originally he was the only one who stood in the wrong position and looked a little out of place, but now many puppets were standing in the wrong position, causing a commotion among the surrounding puppets.
In this way, the bluestone is no longer so eye-catching. Qingshi was so happy in his heart that he concocted the same thing, making the puppet team even more chaotic as he walked towards the depths of the passage.
Bluestone's direction of progress is deep in the passage, but he does not walk in a straight line, but intersperses randomly in the military formation, while disrupting the puppet team. As he went, there was a commotion everywhere he went, like a weasel scurrying into a chicken farm.
Bluestone's strategy is undoubtedly effective, although his vest can't completely blind these golems, it seriously interferes with their judgment, and the fact that Bluestone constantly disrupts the golem's team affects their concentration and discernment even more. Before they could finish identifying them, Bluestone had already gone out of the range of the puppets that had noticed him, and went deeper into the group.
Soon, Qingshi advanced nearly a hundred zhang distance. Came to the middle of the entire passage. Here, the puppet team broke into two sections, leaving a clear space of about ten feet.
At this point, Qingshi found that he had walked past a full sixty rows of puppets, and if it was as expected, there were still sixty rows behind. In this way, there are a total of 120 rows of these puppets, and there are as many as 1,080.
There is obviously a reason for the appearance of a vacant land here, bluestone found that there is a metal hemisphere with a diameter of more than one zhang inlaid on the ground in the middle of the clearing, the hemisphere is dark gold, the surface of the sphere is engraved with complex patterns, and there are small round holes with a diameter of about three inches are regularly distributed, there are hundreds of them.
The caverns were spewing dark purple aura, which was apparently the main source of aura. However, Qingshi also found that the round hole not only spits out evil energy, but also a large amount of spiritual energy, but the spiritual energy has no color, so it cannot be seen. But you can feel it.
It seems that this is the dribble that controls the puppet formation. If you can control this array dribble, then it is equivalent to controlling the entire puppet army formation.
Compared with catching those puppets one by one for transformation, controlling the formation dribbling ball and taking it for yourself, this is the best policy, this is Qingshi's plan.
Bluestone stepped in front of the metal hemisphere in two steps, keeping an eye out for the golems' reactions.
Those puppets originally had a lot of opinions about bluestone disturbing the queue, and some of them seemed to have the intention of attacking him, but bluestone moved quickly, and although it caused a commotion, it was not really attacked.
What he didn't expect was that now before coming to this metal hemisphere, those puppets would all be treated as if he didn't exist.
The chaotic puppet army slowly regained its calm, and Qingshi was happy to study the metal hemisphere without being disturbed, and immediately began to observe it carefully.
Qingshi looked inward through those small holes, and found that the hemisphere was empty inside, originally thought that this must be a spherical array disk, who knew that this was just a hemispherical metal cover.
This hemispherical lid covered a large hole in the ground with a diameter of nearly a zhang, and all those evil qi and spiritual energy came out of this large hole.
Around the entrance of the hole, there was a circle of fist-sized spherical protrusions on the ground, all half-embedded in the ground, and under the count, there were forty-nine in a circle. Each spherical protrusion is connected to a wire thread that leads out of the hole.
These silk threads are obviously the same as the spiritual power wires on those array cannons, that is, the kind of metal wires that bluestone makes nets. Each of them was a thousand filaments wound around the size of a thumb, extending along the walls of the cave from the inside of the large hole.
Qingshi pondered for a while, and then looked at the ashlar ground under his feet, only to find that there were many formations carved on the ground, and many extremely thin metal wires could be faintly found between the formations.
It turned out that after the wire thread was drawn out of the hole, through these spherical protrusions, it was split into thousands of roots and led into the entire underground passage, covering all the ground.
Qingshi thought for a long time, and finally understood the operation principle of this puppet military array. These metal wires are used to derive spiritual power from underground spirit stone veins, and the puppets rely on these filamentous wires that cover the ground to obtain energy.
The advantage of this is that its spiritual power is endless, and the disadvantage is that once it leaves the range of the passage, the puppet will quickly run out of energy. As a result, they only move within the passage, and once the intruders exit the stone gate, they stop and stop pursuing.
Qingshi thought back to the puppet he dissected, it had a superb spirit stone and a bright purple black evil stone in its body as a source of spiritual power, whether it was a spirit stone or a black evil stone, there was almost no spiritual power loss. It can be seen that when these puppets fight, they are indeed using the energy transmitted by metal wires, which is the spiritual power of the underground spirit stone veins.
As for the evil qi and aura that came out of the cave, it was naturally useful, the evil qi was to drive away the intruders, and the aura was the medium to connect and control the array and the puppet.
Since this is not a dribble, then it is only possible to control the dribble in this big hole. Bluestone pressed his hands on the hemispherical lid and groped along the pattern on the lid, trying to find a way to open the lid and enter it.
Who knew that this hemispherical lid was more than just a lid, as soon as the bluestone touched it, it immediately caused a ripple of energy on the surface of the sphere.
The bluestone heart is broken, and there is a trigger-type defense circle hidden on this hemispherical lid! Qingshi, the big array mage, accidentally caught the way.
As the ripples of energy snapped away Qingshi's hands, a sonorous sound of metal hitting was heard.
Qingshi raised his eyes and saw that the puppets on both sides of the passage had awakened at least hundred, and all of them rushed towards him with swords, guns, swords, and halberds.
