Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Sludge Monster
Returning to the hall of the Unicom Mine, Jia Yi first checked the magic circle he had arranged, and there was no damage, and nothing approached.
But Jia Yi was not at ease, and the inspection here was still too rough at that time. Jia Yi released several light spells one after another, and placed them in various places in the cave, illuminating almost the entire cave, but because the range was relatively large, the light was not strong.
He has used a lot of magic along the way, adding shields to his teammates, constantly using light techniques, etc., so that the magic power in his body is no longer full. Now he is willing to spend so much mana, mainly because he suspects that there is some danger hidden in the corner here, and he wants to check it out.
Under the illumination of the light technique, the inside of the cave presents a colorful color, and the roof of the cave is nothing but stones, but there are a few stalactites hanging upside down, but this is not a cave, and there are not a few stalactites hanging upside down.
Jiayi's serious expression made the rest of the people nervous involuntarily, wondering if there was really danger around, after all, it was the devil moss and the big salamander just now, although they couldn't find anything.
The inside of the cave seems very normal, so normal that it makes people feel abnormal.
"Is there really anything in this?" involuntarily, someone began to wonder.
Don't blame these team members, even Jiayi himself began to hesitate, he turned on the power of his detection array to the maximum, in addition to the cave, even the underground and behind the stone wall also turned on the detection. Instead, some holes were found, as well as shadows left by the deposit, and nothing else was found.
"I'll you, did you guess wrong?" Jia Yi muttered quietly, and he was a little unsure of his speculation. According to his observations, the monster that attacked the miners would definitely not go too deep, and since it was not found before, it must be here.
Kaichi was thinking about what was going on when he suddenly heard a sound of wind coming from overhead. He looked up and saw a huge black shadow falling overhead, and Jia Yi hurriedly raised his left hand, and a wave of magic turned into a shockwave, deflecting the thing that fell from the sky, and at the same time he himself dodged in the opposite direction.
Jia Yi uses the magic power in his body, like an internal power to fight out, is a way to use the magic in his body that he has figured out, the effect is a bit like an impact technique, but it is much weaker.
This thing that fell from the sky "piaji" and fell to the ground, and it didn't sound like a stone or something. Ka must have seen it, but it was a mess of mud, still wriggling and wriggling.
Jia Yi burst into flames and was about to burn this thing to death, but saw several more balls of the same thing falling, attacking the rest of the team.
"Get out of the way!" shouted Jiayi, adding a shield to the nearest member of the team who had been attacked.
Fortunately, the rest of the people cheered up after Jiayi was attacked, and no one was hit.
"Be careful, everyone, these are sludge monsters, not afraid of physical damage. Jia Yi reminded the players.
After seeing the sludge monster, Jiayi's mood was much more relaxed. Although this thing is also the first time to see the real thing, it is not unfamiliar, this thing is one of the most common magical beasts, forests, swamps, and caves are the most common. It's common sense to meet the sludge monster here, and there's finally something that Jiayi knows.
And if it's a sludge monster, then the corroded rope can also be explained.
However, after listening to Jiayi's words, the rest of the people didn't care about physics or physics, they still took out their weapons and slashed at the mud monster, but unfortunately it had no effect.
It can't be said that it has no effect, the sword easily slashed into the body of the sludge monster, but just like cutting into the mud, the knife was taken out, and not even a wound was left, but the sword in his hand was defaced by the mud, and bubbles appeared on it, as if it had been splashed with sulfuric acid.
When Jia Yi saw it, he hurriedly said: "Don't use a sword, the sludge monster is not afraid of physical damage, pay attention to dodge." ”
As soon as Jia finished speaking, the sludge monster they were dealing with suddenly stretched out and turned into a long strip, and pounced on one of the team members at the front. The attacker raised his sword in gear, only to see the sludge monster take advantage of the situation, bypass his sword, and attack him on the head. Kaichi immediately added a frost shield to the opponent to block the attack. The Sludge Monster attacked the Frost Shield, and immediately there were some fine ice particles on it.
Bloomer turned his head to dodge another sludge monster's attack and asked, "What is physical damage?"
Jia Yi was silent, almost forgot to cast a spell, how should this be explained? It's not magic damage or physical damage, is fire considered magic?
"Stand in front with the shield, the sludge monster is not afraid of the sword slash, just block the attack of the sludge monster, and we will slowly retreat. ”
After listening to Jiayi's command, they were really much more organized, although they still couldn't do any damage to the sludge monsters. This is also because the sludge monster is more special, although the attack power is not too high, and the movement is not very sensitive, but because of the special body, it is more difficult to kill than other magical beasts.
Fortunately, there is also Kaichi's spell, and the two fireball spells passed, and a sludge monster was burned into a pile of ashes. With the results of the first one, the remaining few did not set off any big waves, and soon "awarded the head" one by one, although it is true that I can't see where this thing is the head.
After burning the Sludge Monster to death, Kaichi picks up the Sludge Monster's ashes and loads it up to take it back. The Sludge Monster absorbs various elements from the nearby environment and stores them in its body, so the remains of the Sludge Monster can collect a lot of rare elements.
It is said that if the Sludge Monster can absorb some special magical elements, it can evolve and become a shapeshifter, and it can become anything it has ever seen. In particular, if you can absorb an entire creature, or even be able to use the opponent's innate spells, you can't see any difference from the original.
In other words, if a shapeshifter can absorb a dragon, it will be able to truly become a dragon and be able to use the dragon's breath. However, it doesn't inherit the other party's memories, so it's not a talent but an acquired skill, such as dragon magic.
There shouldn't be any special magic metals for these sludge monsters to absorb here, so the strength of these sludge monsters is just ordinary. But there are a lot of minerals here, so the ashes of these sludge monsters are still of some value. However, the special elements absorbed in each sludge monster's body are different, and no one can know what it contains until a formal experiment. Moreover, all the elements in it are mixed and cannot be separated at all, so they can only be used as a special additive.
"Let's go. After Jiayi finished cleaning up, he beckoned the rest of the people to start retreating, "I'm afraid there are more than these mud monsters here, let's go back first." ”
The sludge monster is too weak, except for these corpses left after burning, there is not even a magic core or anything like that, although Jia Yi can deal with it, but he doesn't have the idea of fighting monsters here, it was just to explore the way. It was also today that I learned that the Sludge Monster acts differently from leech caterpillars and the like, not stretching and shrinking, but acting like gastropods used like snails.
Sure enough, it's good to have more insight.
