Chapter 498: The Words of the Runes
Sensing that it was being bound, the Blood Bird roared angrily, and it pulled up its bow and arrow, and shot a guide arrow again, straight at Jiang Yueying.
However, Jiang Yueying, whose treasure had been fully deployed, was not afraid of the attack of the blood bird.
"Order, strengthen!" At the moment when the Blood Bird pulled the bow, Jiang Yueying had already taken out a treasure that seemed to be formed by countless gears biting together.
The countless gears on the treasure rotated, fusing with the phantom of the defensive treasure that Jiang Yueying had first sacrificed, making the phantom of the defensive treasure become clear and solid.
When the guiding arrows shot by the blood bird struck, the speed of the runes that were slowly rotating around Jiang Yueying's side suddenly became faster. The moment the guiding arrow came into contact with the illusory rune spell mark, all the rune phantoms seemed to come to life and entangled towards the guiding arrow.
A brilliant silver light burst out on the guiding arrow, and countless runes were wrapped around the arrow layer after layer under the light, like a rope, entangled the arrow to death.
After a few seconds, the silver light on the guiding arrow finally exploded. The runes that wrapped around the guiding arrows quickly spread out again, turning into a large curtain, blocking all the fragments.
Then, the runes returned to Jiang Yueying's side, and the runes that turned into illusory ones surrounded her.
And when Jiang Yueying and Blood Bird were engaged in this offensive and defensive battle, Leng Shuang and Zhong Junze on the other side had already launched the strongest attack on the corpse.
Cold Frost herself was an assassin, she was extremely fast, swinging daggers in both hands, spinning around the corpse like a ghost, and the dagger in her hand was constantly causing wounds on its body.
And Zhong Junze's fighting style is completely different from Cold Frost. If Cold Frost is an assassin like a dancer in the dark, then Zhong Junze is wide open, holding a half-human-long knife in one hand and a blue sword in the other. Both weapons were swung by Zhong Junze like a wheel, constantly firing at the corpse and slashing past.
Although in this world it is not like in the game, you can visually see the blood lines of the monsters from their heads. But for experienced reincarnators, they can still intuitively see the residual vitality of these monsters from their performance.
Under the attack of Cold Frost and Zhong Junze, the corpse was on fire and was obviously getting weaker. Although there was no blood flowing from its body, mana and life force continued to flow from the wound.
When Jiang Yueying could exert her full strength, she completely proved what kind of power a major-level reincarnation could exert. Under Jiang Yueying's full control, the corpse fire and blood bird, whose strength should be similar to that of a blacksmith, could hardly create any threat to Cold Frost or Zhong Junze.
In just a few moments, the corpse was already on the verge of collapse.
At the same time, after the loss of the two generals, Corpse Flame and Bloodbird, Andariel's personal guard was also in trouble with the siege of the last position of Rog's camp. Not only did he fail to seize the opportunity to break through the position, but because of the confusion caused by those monsters, he was pushed back by the defenders in Rogg's camp.
Kashya and Chasi took the lead, wielding their blades and slashing out. Behind the two of them, there was also a Kidd. The profiteer also held a mace with unknown attributes, and rushed out after the two people, and gave it a hammer on the head when he saw it.
Kasha and Chasi are also top powerhouses in Rog's camp, and ordinary demons are not a combination of enemies in front of them. And although Kidd's own strength is not very good, the mace in his hand is not ordinary. Every time it hits a monster, it will burst out with elemental power such as ice and fire, and the monster will die at the touch of a button. It looks like the base damage is high and scary.
Seeing this scene, Andariel's personal guards could only go out in person and fight with Kashya, Chasi and others.
The offensive and defensive battles in Rogge's camp reached their climax in just a few minutes.
Nearly the entire camp was filled with scuffles, humans and monsters fighting each other, the screams of the demons dying and the wails of the wounded humans endlessly.
Of course, in the entire camp, the most crucial battle is still the duel between Ho Zhi and Andariel.
In fact, at this time, He Zhi had almost figured out the reality of Andariel. Its poisonous mist is indeed very powerful, and it can even resist the attack of Qian Mu Sword head-on, but the scope of Andariel's poisonous mist is only the one on the front. It still doesn't have the ability to juggle the weaknesses behind itself.
And the speed of the Qian Mu Sword is far beyond the reach of Andariel.
Under He Zhi's command, Qian Mujian soon began to circle with Andariel, constantly attacking from behind it. Andariel let out a roar of anger, but this time there was nothing he could do with his sword.
However, just when He Zhi felt that he had almost grasped the initiative and could grind Andariel to death steadily, he didn't expect Andariel to break out.
A massive amount of poisonous gas erupted violently from Andariel's body, like a thick green fog rising from the ground.
This burst of fog forced Qian Mujian to go deeper, and he had to retreat. But at the moment when the Qian Mu Sword flew back, Andariel suddenly rushed out of the thick fog, and a mouthful of poisonous mist sprayed out at He Zhi, who was commanding the Qian Mu Sword not far away!
He Zhi had long thought that Andariel might fight with him, but he couldn't guess that Andariel's desperate trick would come so suddenly and so decisively!
The poisonous mist rushed towards He Zhi so fast that He Zhi almost didn't even have time to think before he got close to He Zhi.
Everywhere the green mist went, everything withered, and the creatures turned into dried corpses as if they had been drained of their blood. He Zhi didn't even need to come into contact with that poisonous fog to know how terrifying this thing was.
The speed at which the poisonous mist surged was so fast that He Zhi almost didn't have time to retreat.
It's not just a matter of not having time to retreat. Andariel also had a hideous expression at this time, and was rushing towards He Zhi with all his might.
This is the most troublesome part of Andariel, and it is also the reason why He Zhi must have wanted to gather a team before dealing with Andariel.
For He Zhi, because of the existence of the Qian Mu Sword, his offensive strength does not need to be worried. But in terms of defense, He Zhi was just a foundation building period monk who could match the spirit realm! Therefore, He Zhi knew very well that when facing Andariel, he himself was his biggest weakness!
I have to admit that Andariel, or Mephisto, arranged it was wonderful. Not only did it destroy He Zhi's original plan to encircle and suppress it, but it also forced He Zhi to retreat to the Rogge camp and then engage in a head-to-head confrontation with it!
At this time, Andariel itself has the strength of the Jindan realm, even if it is not as fast as the Jindan monk who can fly in the air, but under the full run, it is by no means comparable to He Zhi of the spirit realm.
In just an instant, He Zhi fell into the crisis of dying immediately.
Jiang Yueying didn't fail to discover the situation on He Zhi's side, but the range controlled by her "Law Command Defense" was only about 100 meters, and she couldn't reach the situation on He Zhi's side.
Qian Mujian also found out Andariel's plan at this time, and suddenly let out a sword roar in shock and anger, and stabbed Andariel fiercely at the back of the neck.
Qian Mujian's choice is to attack it and save it, forcing Andariel to defend himself.
But Qian Mujian didn't expect that Andariel was completely different from ordinary humans. Ordinary humans may be reluctant to die together when faced with the killing blow of the Qian Mu Sword. But Andariel is a demon, and a resurrectable demon! It doesn't care if it dies with Ho Chi!
Andariel knew very well that if He Zhi died, he would die. And even if it dies now in the hands of Qian Mujian, it will only take a while at most, and it will still be able to return from the darkness!
Therefore, Andariel completely ignored Qian Mujian's attack, and still rushed towards He Zhi with a hideous face. The poisonous mist that erupted from its mouth was like a sharp arrow, surging straight towards He Zhi's face.
At this moment, Jiang Yueying, Leng Shuang, and Zhong Junze's hearts were all close to collapse. Even the hearts of Kashya, Chasi, and Kidd were all in their throats.
They all knew very well that He Zhi was the leader of the group of strangers in front of them. And this group of outlanders is their last hope to protect Rog's camp now! If Ho Zhi dies at the hands of Andariel, then their camp will be destroyed only one way!
At the moment of life and death, He Zhi's reaction was also sharp and quick enough. He Zhi knew very well that Andariel's poisonous gas was a little enough to withstand even Qian Mujian, and he was absolutely unable to withstand it as a small foundation-building monk.
I'm afraid that just a trace of inhalation is enough to kill him. Under normal circumstances, He Zhi should have been dead by now. However, fortunately, before facing Andariel, He Zhi was by no means unprepared.
In He Zhi's hands, he now carries more than a dozen small stones that look quite inconspicuous. These are all things that He Zhi found from the treasure chest of his residence and the collection he carried with him after helping Zhong Junze kill the Countess in the Tower!
These dozen or so inconspicuous small stones have a resounding name in the Diablo game that He Zhi has played-runes!
In fact, there are thirty-three different types of these humble little stones. The runes carved on each type are completely different. When these runes are embedded into the perforated equipment according to certain rules, they will produce an astonishing power.
In fact, in the previous investigation of the Diablo World by the major legions of the Empty Space, they had long been aware of the special effects that these runes might bring about when they were embedded in the equipment generated by the Diablo World.
It's just that equipment with holes in itself is a very small number of things in this world, and if these runes want to achieve a truly eye-catching effect, they need to be embedded in a very special order.
Therefore, although the empty Captain's District has conducted no less than a hundred investigations on this world, and has even advanced the exploration degree of this space to more than 95%, few legions know about the real "Rune Language"!
To be honest, the rune language in Diablo is complex enough in itself, and non-experienced players won't remember the complicated spell sequence. He Zhi also didn't remember much of these things at all. As a standard casual gamer, He Zhi will at most go online to look up these things when he needs to.
However, among all the rune words, there is one rune language that He Zhi is most familiar with and the only one he remembers—Bramble Thorns!
This is the only equipment that He Zhi used to rely on his own strength to brush the Countess out of the rune combination when he first played the Diablo game. It's also the best defensive equipment to use against Andariel in Act I!
Only four runes - No. 8 Ral, No. 27 Ohm, No. 29 Sur, and No. 5 Eth - can form a super poison resistance equipment with antivirus +100%!
And the four runes of No. 8, No. 27, No. 29 and No. 5, now He Zhi happens to have all of them on his body!
As for the four-hole armor, He Zhi had already tried his best to collect it in the battle along the way. Although He Zhi was not able to find the high-grade armor he wanted, a piece of inlay armor with four inlay holes still made He Zhi very satisfied.
Before coming to face Andariel, He Zhi had already assembled this equipment and wore it on his body.
To be honest, He Zhi doesn't have much confidence in his heart now. Because this world is not like a game, all equipment attributes will be clearly displayed in front of the player in the form of data.
Although He Zhi has now assembled this rune language equipment according to his own memory, he is not sure whether the rune language in his memory is useful or not.
Therefore, when Andaril's poisonous mist hit, He Zhi still desperately dodged back almost subconsciously, trying to widen the distance between him and Andariel.
But Andariel still laughed fiercely: "Die, lowly worm!"
Under Andariel's life, the speed of the green poisonous mist was extremely fast, and almost in an instant, it had already come to He Zhi's side, and He Zhi was swept into the mist.
Andariel's eyes widened, as if he wanted to watch with great satisfaction as He Zhi's intestines rotted and turned into a pool of thick water under the corrosion of its poisonous mist.
However, a second passed...... Ten seconds passed...... Although He Zhi, who was wrapped in the poisonous mist, was choked and coughed repeatedly, and his whole person seemed to be dyed with a layer of green, he himself did not change at all!
"No! it can't be!" Andalil unwillingly spewed out a mouthful of poisonous mist again, once again entangled He Zhi in it.
He Zhi coughed loudly for a long time, but he still did not fall.
