Chapter 100 Find a Reasonable Explanation
"Let me try!"
When the monster appeared at the door, Shani turned her wrist and everyone noticed that her hands were full of small iron balls. These small iron balls were usually thrown on the road to make the enemy fall, or were barely placed in a slingshot and used as projectiles. They are very powerful, but the advantage is that they are very large.
With two swishes, all the iron balls were thrown out. The monster opposite showed a terrifying smile on his mouth, and then suddenly disappeared in front of everyone.
The iron ball pounded against the wall, and then rolled into pieces on the ground at the door, and the clamored sound set off the inexplicable silence.
"It's not outside, there's no left or right." Tron poked his head out and looked, then listened: "It's too fast, I can't hear it at all, not even the wind."
"This is not normal. No creature can be so fast." Qiao Duo narrowed his eyes, rubbed his chin, and thought. He suddenly thought that there was a calmer and smarter Feiqi next to him. Why did he have to do something about his brain, so he turned his head to look.
Feich looked up for a while when the monster appeared, and just lowered her head again, continuing to load the magic matrix runes. "Aren't you going to say something?" Qiao Duo poked Feich's shoulder with his finger, and said, "What will we do next?"
"Did that guy come in and hit us?"
"This is not..."
"Tron, how many people are there in Gujian Fort?"
"More than Ice Peak Fortress, fourteen people."
"The zombies have very low combat power, just be careful to explode. The door is opened and killed at a distance in the corridor. Don't let the zombies get close - it's not difficult, right?" Feiqi said while providing mana for the runes: "The monster is extremely fast at a natural speed. Even if we use a blade to wipe the neck, we are all dead, but it will not come in to kill. Since it doesn't do this, the situation has not changed from before. What should I do when I go out? Complete the previous plan first and wait until I finish the runes. I guess it will be seven or eight minutes."
"Just like this, wait a little longer?" Tron scratched his head, and he was still a little confused. "Okay, I'm guarding at the door, who will help me see behind me?"
"I'll do it." Anne took the giant bow and came back to back to the door with Tron, staring at the corridor and the direction of the stairs. Qiao Duo scratched his earlobe and sighed. He didn't like this feeling of waiting for the rabbit, and always felt very passive and not refreshing enough. The heroes who charge and the passionate music were romantic and beautiful battles.
"Shani, Benny, you two protect Feich, there is no other task." After he said that, he found that Benny's face was very bad, a faint blue color was rising up along the neck and cheeks, and at the same time from her shoulders to her arms.
He hurried over and pressed his thumb against Benny's eyebrows. "Concentrate, take a deep breath, relax. Everyone is around..."
"I feel uncomfortable. I'm very scared for some reason. Just when I saw the monster, I..." Benny gradually calmed down, and the blue color on her skin faded quickly like a tide. "I may have seen that kind of monster."
"I feel that way, too." Shani's voice came from behind the veil: "But you know, it's obviously impossible."
"Stop talking about you, I feel the same way." Qiao Duo nodded. "Feich, Tron, where are you?"
As a result, when I asked, I found that except for the goblins, everyone had the same feeling, as if they had encountered this monster somewhere or at some time, but if they recalled it carefully, they couldn't remember it.
"You are evil and hissing, but your friend is fine! Why don't you listen to your friend's hissing?"
"Look for an opportunity to be the commander in the future." Feiqi touched Pengpeng's head and stood up. On his arm, the light of the magic matrix dimmed, but the ice runes had merged into one, so they dimmed together and hid.
"Are you still seven or eight minutes?" Shani asked.
"I'm a lie." Feiqi rubbed his face, rubbed his hair, and jumped on the spot twice to restore his body and relax his mind for a moment. "Did you think about it?"
Fitch nodded. "The monster's performance was very weird, and the action pattern it showed in the battle was unpredictable. However, in other aspects, it still has traces."
"At present, the clerk's diary is credible, and all the descriptions are correct. However, the most important information is not that it is afraid of ice, but this sentence: it betrayed the title of knight, collected a lot of silver coins, and hid it."
"Why does this monster sell the title of knight? It is still to sell it to ordinary villagers who are not very wealthy, or even down-and-out robbers, and even willing to sell a single bridge as a so-called fiefdom. His goal is actually silver coins. Think about it, every year the church supports each fortress, in addition to supplies, there are gold coins. As a lord, the church supports it or gold coins. The number of people in Gujian Fortress is more than that in Bingfeng Fortress, and the money is paid, of course, most of them will be gold coins."
"It wants silver coins but doesn't buy things, so what it wants is silver." Feiqi found that some people already understand, but continued: "Silver is used in many spells, especially when portraying magic circles. Silver is the most commonly used material in addition to mercury. Therefore, this monster has set up a certain magic circle and then uses the power of the magic circle to move. It is actually not that fast speed, it is just the effect of the magic circle - otherwise how could it be the monster hunters in Gujian Castle use fire, lightning, bows and crossbows, one by one, one after another? If I have such a fast speed, how can others have the chance to test?"
"Every fortress in the Sunset Mountains has a Thunder God-Speed Protection Array, which is everywhere in the fortress. The magic array attacks it, and then it is not afraid of lightning, but it also emits the reserved energy. Therefore, it can only repeat the charge and cast this process to solve the opponent - it is rhythmic. I speculate that the energy released at one time may not be able to settle all of us at the same time, and it is best for it to find the opportunity to be alone. Perhaps the only time it kills people in real life is to chase the guy riding a horse. Compared to the unreasonable high speed and tactics of the black monster, my explanation is more likely to be realized. So Tron, you even know the secret passage, do you know where the center of the Gujian Fort protection Array is?"
"I haven't been there, but I probably know that's the only place I don't let in for the entire fortress, so it must be." Tron thought for a while and asked, "Feich, apart from the connection between silver and magic circles, how do you determine that the black monster is a magic effect?"
"It's because we all think it's familiar - except for friends." Feiqi explained: "I don't know how Qiao Duo you trained, but obviously your senses are beyond ordinary people. The monster fought with us with the help of the defensive magic circle in the fortress, and may even be monitoring us all the time. Its breath has always been there, but it doesn't match its image. This is actually the situation. Friends rely on vision and smell, so this kind of dislocation will not occur."
"You said this... it really looks like..." Qiao Duo licked his lips as if he was tasting the taste. "It was a bit like someone sneaking into my house and peeping at it. Ahhhh! I hate this the most!"
"Don't go crazy, let's catch it now. The black shadow monster appears again. Let's defend well, be careful not to be careless, and then follow Tron to the control core of the magic defense array." Feiqi moved for a while, then gently patted everyone's shoulder with his left hand, and secretly cast the seal: The legal armed forces. "May the goddess bless you," he patted and said.
Qiao Duo pulled the flesh on his cheeks with his hands, and then moved his chin: "What kind of magic is this? Is the pious shield? Why do I feel my skin tightened?"
"Don't the profession of minstrels need to be thick-skinned?" Feiqi said with a smile. However, the best protection for Qiao Duo is not the luxurious breastplate, but the skin. Is he a human? Feiqi has begun to doubt.
After casting seven magic seals in a row, the mana consumption was not light. Feiqi drank some water, poured some on his head, and then used the method of mana training to recover. Everyone walked together, close to their bodies, back to back, and always paid attention to the front, back and forth, left and right, up and down directions. Tron kept pricking up his ears and listened, so Feiqi put away the Hawkeye full-domain vision, so that he could recover faster.
They went to the room controlling the castle suspension bridge and gate, locked the mechanism here, and removed the key components. Tron proposed to lower the iron gate and catch the enemy in a jar, but Feiqi still couldn't be careless. Although he was quite confident in his judgment, what if it was wrong? Everyone always had a way to retreat. Because Qiao Duo and the girls, plus friends, all supported Feiqi unconditionally, the door was still open.
"Try to choose the road inside the castle to pass." Feiqi said: "The internal Thunder magic defense array is much less than on the exterior wall. We accidentally did this before."
Everyone maintained a tight formation that was almost round, not seeking the fastest, but seeking the most stable, like a patient hard-shelled turtle slowly walking through the castle. Feiqi observed the surrounding walls and searched for clues to the protective array. When they came to a corner, the wall was decorated with reliefs of the knight riding a horse, and a node of the defense array was hidden in the complex texture of the floating horse's hair.
The monster suddenly appeared again, standing in front of the relief. It spread its bat-like wings, swung its long whip-like tail left and right, opened its teeth and claws, and Hood's face also roared intimidation in the monster's mouth - but everyone was not panicked at this time, and still firmly controlled the formation.
"Shani, do you still have steel balls?" Feiqi touched the masked woman beside him with his elbow: "Try sprinkling again?"
"As you wish." Shani reached out to take it out in her skirt pocket, then grabbed two more handfuls of steel beads and threw them over. The monster smiled contemptuously, shaking his figure, moving to the side, easily avoiding the steel beads.
"Shoot the relief of the horse's urethra, the left eye." Feiqi said to Tron.
The armor-breaking crossbow arrow flew over with a whoosh. In normal training, Tron is the most serious and focused and effective one. This time the shooting reflects his level. After the accurate hit, the urethra was directly shattered, and the key characters of the magic defense rune were destroyed. The black shadow suddenly lost half of his body, and then he disappeared quickly.
"It's indeed related to the magic circle here." Qiao Duo nodded and said with a relaxed smile: "I know what's going on, and the rest will be easier."
