Section 26 Rapid freezing
"I didn't expect you to be able to kill so many petrified jackals by yourself!" said Eakins, perched on a nearby branch.
Lance smiled and didn't reply, he quickly used the knife in his hand to cut open the corpses of jackals and remove their petrified hearts. The only valuable part of these petrified jackals is their hearts.
The rest of the parts are basically useless to wizards.
There were a total of 27 petrified jackal corpses, except for one unlucky guy who was shot through the heart by Lance with a scorching ray, causing the petrified heart to lose its effectiveness, the rest of the petrified hearts were quickly collected by Lance.
Eakins was very greedy, but Lance said that he would share a quarter of his harvest, and he was satisfied. After all, this battle was almost completed by Lance himself. All he did was scout.
"How did you come up with this method?" chattered the woodpecker with another question.
Lance smiled bitterly, he couldn't think of such a risky way, it was the fox who proposed it. With the computing power of the main chip, as long as Lance enters enough given data, he can come up with the most efficient execution plan. The previous combat method of using the Strike Grass and Bileg Rotation Force Field with the Scorching Ray was also the product of the fox's careful calculation.
Without the fox's pledge, Lance wouldn't have dared to take such a risk.
He prevaricated casually before putting down what he was doing. At this moment, there was a jackal corpse lying on the ground around the tree, and Lance's hands were also stained with an unknown amount of blood. He took out a clean rag and wiped his hands, but the bloody breath was already deeply embedded in his fingernails, and it would not be washed off for a while.
"Ekins. You go back first, I still have some things to solve in this forest. It was at this moment that Lance suddenly said this.
The woodpecker tilted his head, a little puzzled, "What's the matter?"
Lance smiled slightly: "Private matter." β
Ekinston looked indignant: "Mysterious guy!"
"Wait!" Lance shouted.
He took out six petrified hearts from the Arcane Ring and threw them over, "Thank you for your help. β
The woodpecker smiled with joy, and with a hard slap of his wings, all the petrified hearts vanished.
"Although this forest is not as good as the Forbidden Forest, there are still demons and ghosts, so be careful! Eakins admonished.
After that, he fanned his wings, flew into the sky, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Lance stood there silently, and suddenly sneered, "After lying in ambush for so long, your patience is really good. β
There was a sudden noise in the jungle on the right, and Lance looked back, only to find that it was empty, and there was nothing!
He felt something was wrong, and a hard tube pressed against his back, enveloping him with a powerful force.
"Don't worry, turn around slowly. Danny smiled and said, "Your perception is very good, you can actually spot me." But you're a little too bold to take the initiative to let that damn woodpecker go. To be honest, if he was there, I'm afraid I wouldn't have dared to do it directly. β
"But nowβhand over all your petrified hearts!" Danny ordered, "I have a level 1 spell [Rainbow Jet] solidified on my staff, and if you don't obey my orders, this spell will turn you into a crumbling cloud of rainbow debris!"
"Oh, are you really going to do that?" Lance slowly turned to face Danny. His expression was calm: "Maybe you misunderstood, do you think that Ekins didn't find out about your existence?"
Danny frowned, "What do you mean?"
"I'm a friend of Hicks. Lance calmly said, "If something goes wrong with me, you're dead." β
"Hicks didn't know you died at my hands!" Danny said with a frown.
"Oh, it's not necessarily ......," Lance smiled mysteriously, "Since you didn't intercept the woodpecker, it won't be long before Hicks learns that his friend is being threatened by you." β
"Damn, that woodpecker was there to ventilate!" Danny realized. He had been hiding by the side, watching Lance pack up the loot with a cold eye. And the reason why he didn't make a move was because he saw that Eakins, a woodpecker, was also by Lance's side.
He is still very jealous of Hicks. So when Lance asked Ekins to leave, Danny didn't stop him, but had a hint of joy in his heart, thinking that after the woodpecker left, he would be able to do it.
But unexpectedly, they had already discovered themselves!
"Could it be that Hicks is on his way here right now?" a hint of panic flashed in Danny's eyes. If he wanted to kill people and seize treasures, it was just a temporary idea, and he didn't even have time to think about whether this plan was thorough.
"So for now, I advise you to let me go. Lance said coldly, "Maybe you don't care about my life, but you should care about your own life." Boundary keepers aren't easy to mess with, you should understand. β
Danny's eyes flashed with a fierce color, and a faint rainbow light appeared on the tip of the staff. He stabbed Lance in the chest with his staff, and said angrily, "No matter how powerful the Boundary Keepers are, they can't easily leave the Outlands of Ferendor. I'll kill you now, take all your stuff, and then hide in Rainbow Island, and Hicks won't be able to do anything when the time comes!"
"Rainbow Island?" A hint of surprise flashed in Lance's eyes, he didn't expect that he had not even set foot on Rainbow Island, but he met the people of Rainbow Island.
It's just that this guy is his own enemy.
With his super mental power, Lance was able to perceive that the opponent's magic level was around 60 points, which was considered an excellent level among elementary apprentices. As for Lance himself, he had just used six Scorching Rays and a seventeen-second Bileg Rotation Field, and the magic power was only a pitiful 6 points, which was only enough to launch two Scorching Rays or one Bileg Rotation Field.
"In terms of magic level, it's not an opponent at all. β
Lance felt a little helpless, but he was still full of confidence, because in a low-level battle, the level of mana was not the decisive factor.
He smiled, "Is your goal a petrified heart?"
"Stop talking nonsense!" Danny snapped, "Give me all your stuff! all the magic stones, petrified hearts, and demonic items." β
"And this ring is for you too?" Lance casually pointed to his right hand.
Danny's gaze was immediately drawn to it.
At this time, Lance moved, and he pushed Danny's right hand away, and sharply pointed the direction of the staff to the right clearing.
"Bang!"
A rainbow of colors shot out from the tip of the staff, and a large patch of grass was contaminated with rainbow radiation, and suddenly turned into colorful debris.
Danny was shocked and furious, he had no idea that Lance would fight back so suddenly.
But before he could react, Lance slammed a punch into his face.
No matter what kind of demeanor Lance has, as long as he can knock down the other party, he will use any trick.
The ferocious fist was about to smash into Danny's face, but at this time, the necklace around his neck suddenly flashed with a pale blue halo.
The cold water-based spell factor spread rapidly, and Lance finally had sharp eyes and forcibly stopped his movements, and immediately jumped back, keeping enough distance from Danny.
In the next second, a thin layer of ice spread from Danny's neck, and in the blink of an eye, his whole body was frozen into a huge ice sculpture!
The ice sculpture was thick, almost two feet thick, and it radiated the glow of runes.
Lance wiped a handful of sweat from his forehead, fortunately he flashed quickly, otherwise he would be contaminated by this cold breath, and it is estimated that one hand would be frozen into a popsicle!
"This kid has a lot of good things on him!" Lance thought for a moment, and instead of standing still, he took a few steps back and hid in the jungle.
In the quiet clearing, huge ice sculptures stand proudly.
Lance knew that this spell should be the first aid spell [Rapid Freeze] attached to Danny's necklace. Like the Rainbow Jet, this is also a level 1 spell, which is not something that a junior apprentice like Danny can solidify at all, and someone else must have made it for him.
Rapid Freeze is a passive spell that is commonly found in demonized items. For example, Danny's necklace, when the owner is under a strong threat to life, this spell will be automatically activated, turning the owner into a huge ice sculpture in a second. Unless Danny deliberately disengages it, it will be difficult for the enemy to break through the outer layer of the ice sculpture.
"Fox, what are the chances of breaking through the enemy's defenses if I use the Scorching Ray?" asked Lance, hiding behind a large tree, calmly.
β19%γ According to my database, the defensive spells used by the opponent are the strongest among the level 1 spells, and the strength is twelve times higher than that of the rock skin! Although the scorching ray has a strong penetrating power and is almost invincible in the level 0 spell, it is still a bit difficult to penetrate the first-level defensive spell. β
"If it's a [Molten Ray], what are the chances?" asked Lance again.
The Molten Ray is a level 1 spell and is an upgraded version of the level 0 spell Scorching Ray.
"The probability is more than 96%. The fox replied simply.
Lance nodded silently, it seemed that he could only wait until this guy unraveled the ice sculpture himself.
He thought about it, but took out the short bow and arrow feathers from the Arcane Ring, and secretly aimed them at the ice sculpture in the clearing.
