Section 134 Dilemma
"Ladies and gentlemen, the first thing we need to do now is to calm down. ”
In the bright conference room, everyone gathered again.
Before that, they had tried everything they could, trying to close the ship's shield.
However, the results were all failures.
The Crimson Scorpion's unique chip has a powerful effect, and once inserted, the ship automatically enters a state of maximum alert - in which it is impossible to artificially close the shield. Even cutting off the power source of the shield is extremely difficult.
When the gnomes were designing, they deliberately protected the power source of the protective cover perfectly. Even if each float had a dedicated engineering wizard on it, it would take at least twelve hours to turn on the power source and cut the shield from this level.
Twelve hours, that's a long time. The wizards on the ship don't know what will happen during this time period!
They were locked inside the floatship by their own shields, and they could only watch as the crimson scorpion manipulated the demon hunting spiders to do whatever they wanted.
In fact, a giant creature like a demon hunter spider is not too exaggerated in its own combat ability. This thing is somewhere between a second-order monster and a third-order monster, and as long as a powerful second-order wizard squad joins forces, it can be killed with sorcery. The embarrassment of the problem is that the wizard on the float who is good at attacking witchcraft grabs a handful, but he is locked in a cage and cannot use his own methods.
What's even more depressing is that this creature is average in combat effectiveness. But it has its own peculiarity - their spider silk is very sticky and can stick to many things. And the spider silk is accompanied by a good witchcraft weakening effect, which can be regarded as a small nemesis of wizards. But that's not the most troublesome thing about the Demon Hunter Spider, the scariest feature of this thing is that it is infinitely powerful.
The float has a power cabin, and it is the power cabin that converts the magic in the stored magic stones into the power to move forward.
For commercial transport, this power is powerful enough to carry floatboats from the mountain town of Gordon to the distant deciduous hills.
But compared to the demon hunting spider, this motivation is a bit insufficient.
Although the No. 8 float boat turned around and headed in the opposite direction at full speed under Regis's control, it was in the face of the great power of the Demon Hunter Spider. Still being pulled step by step into the depths of darkness. It's just that this progress has been slowed down a lot.
They still need other strategies. to find a way out.
......
"Calm? What we need is not calm, but strategy, a successful strategy. ”
The captain couldn't help but mutter, "If we can't think of a way, we'll wait for death." ”
"The nest of demon hunters is sticky. It also forms a small sorcery weakening force field. If it's in that place. We will be at a very disadvantage to fight it. Rogers, another representative of the Nightingale, said in a deep voice, "The captain is right, we must do something before we reach the nest of the demon hunting spiders. ”
"It didn't work. Regis shook his head and said, "Didn't we already try it in the last half hour? All the wizards have tried their own sorcery." No one can break the shield. This thing is so sturdy, I used to think this design was genius, and now I realize that the gnomes didn't leave us a back door, damn it!"
"It doesn't have to be broken. ”
Lance squinted and said, "As long as someone can get out, kill that demon hunting spider." ”
"How can you get out without breaking the shield?" said Rogers strangely, "Even a wizard who is proficient in space sorcery can't get past the shield, right?"
Lance shook his head silently: "I'm just mentioning a Jianyì." ”
"Useless construction is a waste of everyone's lives. The captain scoffed, "Perhaps we should indeed investigate if there are any wizards on this ship who have the ability to pass through this shield." ”
Lance tilted his head slightly, too lazy to bother with him.
What he said was not unreasonable, the proposal proposed by Lance did seem impossible - although he himself had the ability to break out of the encirclement, it was basically impossible to kill the demon hunter spider by himself - not to mention, even if he killed the demon hunter spider, what could he do?
They are now being dragged into an inexplicable tunnel, completely disoriented. Under some mysterious interference, the communication instruments and positioning devices are paralyzed.
Even if he could kill the demon hunters, they would have to grope their way forward in the vast darkness. You know, they are in the belly of the First Mountain Range, this ghost place will encounter ideas at any time, and if they can't return to their original course, the future of the No. 8 floatship is also worrying.
So he didn't mention that he was indeed capable of penetrating the shield.
......
Soon, the results of the investigation came in.
The result was not unexpected, there were nearly sixty wizards on board, and each of them made some attempts. There were even two wizards who were good at space witchcraft, but their realizations failed without exception.
Originally, the design of the shield itself took into account the fact that external enemies might use space teleportation sorcery, so a special device was set up on the shield to isolate the space teleportation point. These devices are part of the protective cover and cannot be separated.
This result made Lance a little helpless, and in the end, he was really alone in the crossing.
At this time, he was even more reluctant to tell his secret. He was reluctant to face the mighty Demon Hunter Spider alone until he had to—let alone with an unknown number of enemies and their intentions. If you shuttle out by yourself and encounter a bunch of wizards who hunt demon spiders and crimson scorpions, won't you kill yourself?
At the moment, everyone was sitting in the conference room with sad faces, thinking hard about strategies.
As the minutes passed, the captain and the others became more and more irritable.
Everyone was in a panic, they were locked in their cages, unable to escape, they didn't know what they were about to face, it was a terrible feeling, the fear of the unknown spread easily, and the whole ship was filled with complaints and fear.
An hour later, there was a rustling sound in a corner that had been almost forgotten.
The crowd stood up in disbelief and looked into the corner.
In that place, the ship's correspondent had been tinkering with the communication equipment made by the gnomes, but this instrument had been suppressed in some way and had lost its effect, but at this time, he suddenly found something, and said in a loud voice: "My lords, I have connected the channels of the first and second floatboats!"
"Great! That's the first good news I've heard today!"
The captain was immediately overjoyed: "Raven, if you can successfully escape this time, I will definitely give you a raise." ”
Immediately the crowd gathered around.
The fixed channels of the communication equipment were unstable at first, filled with a lot of rustling sounds, but then became much clearer.
"Wait...... Adults, not only us, but all the floatboats have resumed communication, and we can communicate with other captains and even the general manager. ”
The correspondent simply unplugged the small earpiece.
The voice suddenly expanded countless times.
"One, One...... This is Captain Sorofo of the Fourteenth ship, can you be sure where we are?"
"This is Nine, we're entangled in a damn demon hunter spider and the shield won't close, asking for instructions. ”
"What happened to us is much the same, we are also a demon hunting spider, the shield has been replaced with a chip, and we are locked inside......"
The sound of the disturbance suddenly made everyone who had just resumed communication irritated.
The group was busy for a while before the captains completed the exchange.
The wizards on each ship also knew each other's situation.
Surprisingly, not all floats were treated the same - floats No. 1 and No. 2 were not attacked in any way, and they remained in their original positions at first. Their people found on the deck "black holes" that could move, spread, expand and shrink at will.
It is precisely because of these "black holes" that the rest of the floating boats "disappear".
They chased the "black hole" and tried to launch an emergency band at the "black hole", but the attempt finally succeeded after half an hour.
Fourteen floating boats were once again in a state of contact.
But the problem also came, there were only two floats that did not have problems, and the remaining twelve floatboats, all of which suffered from the same predicament.
Their location is unknown, the location they are being towed to is unclear, and they are trapped inside the ship by demon hunters and shields, and there is no good way to solve this dilemma.
"Listen, everyone, I'm Issa, the vice president of the Pop Chamber of Commerce. Based on the clues we have at hand, it's almost certain that the Crimson Scorpion's people are behind the accident on the floatboat, but we haven't figured out what their purpose is. The biggest problem now is not the Demon Hunter Spider, but the Crimson Scorpion and the Roundabout Trail!"
"I'm sure they somehow changed the structure of the swing trail through guò, they must have this kind of map in their hands, the problem is that we can't get it. ”
"That's the key, we have to find a way to get a map of the slalom trail and the exact location of each float so that we can hope to break through the current predicament. ”
Through Guò to establish a contact method, Issa of the first float gave the above order to everyone.
After he finished speaking, Lance immediately stepped forward and added: "The location problem can actually be solved, since we have twelve ships captured by the Demon Hunter Spider and are towing, then our destination must be the same, that is, the Demon Hunter Spider's lair!"
In other words, we're likely to meet in a short period of time, but then we'll be very passive. (To be continued......)
