Section 160 Experiments (Part II)
Suspicious, Mane followed Solomon into a house where no one was there.
"Take your clothes off. Solomon said lightly.
Mane couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, seeing that Solomon was not joking, before he took off his light armor and clothes, revealing a sturdy upper body with many scars.
Solomon had some extra tools in his hands, pens, knives, and even small and delicate scissors and chisels, and suddenly there were small boxes and trays on the table next to him, which contained things like paint, and powders of various colors.
"Don't move. ”
Solomon picked up a tool and began to make carvings on Mane's body, first on the chest and then on the back.
"What the hell are you really going to help me?" Mane said suspiciously.
"You don't have any choice but to trust me and take a gamble. ”
"If you really want to help me, just let your two men do it in a moment. Manie said in a deep voice.
"Their duty is to protect me, not to save you. Besides, people save themselves. Solomon, as if he had finished his drawing, began to retrace the lines he had just drawn with a pen dipped in "paint" and powder.
When the paint and powder filled in the lines that had just been carved, all the magic lines lit up and came alive.
"Alright, the main circle is complete. Now it's time for me to finish the second part. Solomon went back to work.
When the second part of the circle was completed, a noise rang out outside the town.
Mane's expression changed suddenly, and Solomon had just finished his final stroke.
"Alright. It's done. I'm a combination of demonic patterns and totemic knowledge. There is also a structure that creates zào. You have a fighting spirit in you, you should know the role of spiritual guidance, and when you feel full of power in your body for a while, you can try to direct that power to your hands. The second part of the circle that Solomon drew for him was on both arms.
Manie didn't bother to talk to Solomon anymore, he grabbed his clothes and put them on and rushed out, and by this time there were already a dozen spies of the Bloodsmoke Mercenary Group at the entrance of the town.
"Fight them!" Manie drew his sword and raised an eagle's shield in his left hand. The first to rush forward.
Solomon came out of the house and said to the other townspeople who were hiding in the house, "You can't help them much, but if you want to live, you should pray, pray that the commander will win, or the enemy may kill you all." ”
When he had finished speaking, Solomon stood with his hands in his hands, and he looked bustling.
Manie and his mercenaries rushed forward and killed the dozen or so enemy mercenaries who had been tempted in a few rounds, especially Mane. He didn't have a single general under him, and everyone couldn't help but boost their morale.
"Kill them. The regimental commander will win!" someone shouted.
Manie only felt that the vest was hot for no reason, but it felt quite comfortable, like someone had rolled hot sand in a cloth bag on his back.
"Captain Mane, it's been a long time. "But more of the Bloodsmoke Mercenaries had already stormed the town, led by a man with curly hair, a long knife dripping with blood in his hand, and several heads in the other, his hair knotted together.
"Look, is this your brother?" the curly-haired man tossed several human heads in his hand, rolling at Mane's feet.
Manie breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this curly-haired man, although it was indeed a bloodsmoke mercenary group in front of him, but the leader who chased him was not Gao Rudas, this guy in front of him was just a powerful squadron leader under him, nicknamed Razor, but he was definitely not a barber, this is to describe his cruelty, he was like a razor shaving hair on the enemy, and he was like a razor shaving his hair.
However, when he saw the heads of the people rolling at his feet, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded, this was the same sentry who had gone out to reconnoiter after eating a few things shortly after entering the town.
Manie could no longer hold back his anger, and was the first to rush forward with a wave of his sword.
"Hehe, good time, kill you, and Gorudas will be happy. Schick greeted him with a strange scream.
The remnants of the Manie mercenary group and the Bloodsmoke mercenary group immediately started a cavalry duel around the town, soldier against soldier, general against general.
Within the scope of the two of them going head-to-head, almost no one dared to step in to help, and both of them had reached the fifteenth level of the warrior Cheng Dù, who was already very close to the high level, and it was difficult to distinguish between them and the others.
The mercenaries under both sides are light cavalry, which is generally a first-order strong strength evaluation, and the light cavalry in the mercenaries will fluctuate, they are usually worse than the regular army in terms of training and cooperation, and the armament is also uneven, depending on the economic strength of the mercenaries themselves, the armed forces of the rich mercenaries are better than the main army, and the ones without money only have a pair of light armor.
The Mane Mercenary Group and the Blood Smoke Mercenary Group, both of them are no worse than the regular legions in terms of soldier cooperation, after all, they are both on the mercenary rankings, the Blood Smoke Mercenary Group is needless to say, it ranks among the top three, although Mane's ranking is far behind, only ranked eleventh, but this mercenary group has an advantage, just like Solomon saw before, Manie is extremely supported by his mercenaries, and even worshipped.
This is not due to Mane's strong strength, if he wants to be really strong, he will not lose so badly this time, but he is quite a good person and loves his mercenaries very much, so in such a dangerous situation, there are still no betrayers, and even the previous sentry cavalry took the initiative to lead the enemy away for everyone after discovering that the Bloodsmoke Mercenary Group was chasing, and they all died.
It was precisely because of this that Solomon did something about him.
The battle was fierce, and from time to time people from the mercenary groups on both sides fell from their horses and rolled to the ground, but Mane's men were indeed desperate, even if they fell off their horses, as long as they still had a breath, they would wave the long knives in their hands and cut at the enemy's horses' hooves.
Fortunately, it was only the light cavalry squadron led by Schick who was chasing them, and although they were slightly superior to Mangie in numbers, they did not occupy an overwhelming advantage, and Mane's men were in a state of mourning. For a while, there was a stalemate.
But Manie was slightly anxious. He and Schick were attacking and defending each other. But he knew that even if Schick couldn't take them for a while, as long as he pestered them until the reinforcements arrived behind, he would be finished.
The only hope of victory is to kill Hick, the opponent's squadron has no commander, and he can counterattack with the threat of decapitation, or force the enemy to retreat, and then win some scattered escape opportunities for his side and the residents of the town.
The knives of the two slammed into each other again, and Mangie staggered back a few steps. Schick stumbled to the side.
For the first time since the fight, Manie had the upper hand, but it was still far from killing the other party, and this blow could take advantage because Manie was in a state of dying together, and Shick thought to himself that the other party was a trapped beast fight, how dare he die with him, and he suffered a small loss by changing his tricks halfway.
As long as the mercenaries under Mane's men who didn't know what to do were in high spirits, they were in high spirits and shouted, "Kill him!"
"Mane!"
"Mane!"
Manie felt the warm current on his back visibly gather on his back, which happened to be the location of the circle that Solomon had carved on his back.
Under his armor. The stripes in that position lit up slightly again, forming a magnificent pattern.
The townspeople saw that Manie seemed to have the upper hand. I couldn't help but pray, hoping that he could win and save the people of the town.
Mane's chest also quickly warmed up, and he immediately felt something strange in his body, and the warm currents in front and back gathered on him, making his body as comfortable as soaking in hot water.
But at the same time, he seemed to hear several different voices in his head, in addition to his own thoughts, there were many voices directly in his head shouting "Kill him!"
Other voices say, "Please help us." ”
The two voices eventually merged into two, echoing in his head.
The rhythm of the voice seemed to be a pulsation, and there was a strange connection with the warm current of his chest and back, making the sensation of heat more and more pronounced, and the comfort of soaking in hot water disappeared and was replaced by a feeling of dryness.
Manie and the embarrassed Szyck continued to fight hard, but instead of lessening the heat, he felt that his sanity had been affected.
He waved as hard as he could, as if he wanted to let the heat go out with him, but he couldn't.
Of course, Schick also noticed something strange about Mane, and the two sides were so ruthless that Manie not only did not exhaust his strength, but became more and more fierce.
But he didn't know about Mane's suffering, and the others, who only thought that Manie was having the upper hand, didn't know what was wrong with his body.
"What's going on?" Manie still had a shred of his sanity, not completely affected by those two voices, he felt that he was developing towards a berserk, his strength and stamina were increasing a little, but his physical discomfort was also increasing, and his mind was being affected by the voices in his head, and he was almost unable to tell if it was a hallucination or if his men and the townspeople were really shouting at him.
Is that mysterious man with two powerful guards doing himself or harming himself? That man must be a magician!
Manie almost wanted to cry out, but a flash of inspiration occurred to him about what Solomon had said to him.
He used his mind to control his mind that was about to be overwhelmed by the "sound" to perceive the warmth of his chest and back, and to perceive the heat.
In an instant, his spirit, his heat, and the "voice" in his brain that he didn't know whether it was true or false seemed to put him in another wonderful world, and there was an invisible rhythm that resonated.
"It seems to have worked. Solomon smiled.
The horses of the two bloody mercenaries were rushing towards them, and the three of them were quite conspicuous, except for Mane, who dared to stand outside directly, and the other townspeople were hiding in their houses and did not dare to come out.
The horses galloped forward, and the men on the horses were eager to split with swords, and their faces were hideous.
However, in the next moment, two axes were slashed, and immediately the cavalry and men and horses were killed on the spot.
Chebman put away his axe and stood respectfully behind Solomon, as if he had done a trivial thing.
Solomon didn't seem to know what was happening, he just stared at Mane.
Mane forced Schick back with a single sword, and he held the knife and raised his hands.
A faint light was emanating from his hand, and then it rained down like a rain of light, as if it had eyes, and fell on his own mercenaries closest to Mane.
Each of the Mane mercenaries who received this light felt a little rejuvenated, and some part of their self was strengthened.
This kind of reinforcement is not uniform, like the light and rain contains pure primordial energy, and after entering one's body, it can stimulate the side that one is best at, such as the strength of the manpower increases by one percent, and the agile and flexible will be more flexible.
Mane himself had this effect, giving his long knife a much more pronounced upper hand when it came together with Schick's scimitar again.
And Schick must not have expected Manie to suddenly seem to have cast a spell, he did not expect it at all, because previous information showed that Manie was a warrior, not a magician.
There are mages in the Ligurian plane, but there are not many, and because the magic civilization is not strong enough, the strong ones among the mages are limited, such as the top people in the Six Kingdoms, and the powerhouses of the town country are not mages.
However, if there is a priest from the Keos plane here, whether it is a priest of the Church of Light or a priest of the God of War Church, they will be surprised to point out that Mane's spell just now is not magic, but divine magic.
The third-level divine art, and at the same time, it is also the lowest-level group effect divine art, and the group assistance technique.
The effect of group assistance, the effect of the weak blessing technique, can strengthen a certain part of the recipient's body in a certain period of time and a short period of time, this enhancement cannot be specified, but is related to the recipient's own body, consciousness, usually his best aspect, the effect and duration of the enhancement is not only related to the divine power cast, but also related to the strength of the recipient's will.
To put it simply, in addition to the fact that the caster is much more powerful and strong, the recipient must also have a firm faith.
This is the case with most divine arts, because the channel of divine magic is faith, and the effect is also based on faith, such as the blood smoke mercenary will not be blessed by divine magic at all.
Mane's knife swept away Schick's scimitar, then swung hard.
The curly-haired man's eyes left his neck with horror and fear, and landed in the distance, where he was slain by Mane.
The mercenaries under Mane's command increased slightly in strength under the effect of the blessing technique, but the blood smoke mercenaries were the opposite, their leader was killed, just now, in front of them, and the enemy became more and more vigorous as if he had suddenly eaten a big tonic pill.
Originally, the blood smoke mercenaries of this squadron were supposed to have the upper hand, as long as they survived the blood bravery generated by Manie and their desperate situation, they could slowly win with numerical superiority, but after Schick's death, their morale was frustrated, and they were turned by the more and more courageous enemies to fight more with less.
Finally, this light cavalry squadron of the Bloodsmoke Mercenary Regiment retreated after dropping more than a hundred corpses.
Mane's men pursued them until they could no longer pursue, and then retreated.
Mane did not pursue, he took off his light armor with trembling hands, and tore the clothes on his chest.
There, Solomon's carved lines are slowly fading, after all, they were only drawn in a very short time, so the time to save zài will be quite short, and it will not enclose too many sources of faith.
Mane's chest and back still seem to have a warm current passing through it, but it is much weaker than before, and the replenishment of the source of faith is decreasing.
As the battle was over, the townspeople slowly came out and stopped praying, but Mane's men were getting farther and farther away from him, a distance that would hardly diminish for the true gods, but for Mane, the transmission of the source of faith was not his own initiative, but with the help of Solomon's carving, so it was bound to be affected.
What Mane was more concerned about was not that he was replenishing less and less, but more importantly, that the warm current was draining, and the lines that Solomon had carved for him seemed to have the effect of trapping and forcing some kind of power to stay in his body, but as those lines disappeared, this effect was constantly weakening.
Manny suddenly shouted, and he rushed to Solomon's presence.
"What's that?" (To be continued......)
