Chapter 99 Breaking the Door
The low roar echoed in Gujian Fort, continuous, as if it would never end. Everyone didn't care at first, but soon felt their eardrums itchy, their hearts pounding, and they began to become excited. With the support of the powerful heart, the blood in their bodies began to flow happily and enthusiastically in the pipes of their bodies, like a surging river.
The roar began to approach.
"He's going to start the attack," Tron said. "Feich, how long will it take for you?"
"Give me another twenty minutes, I've got my clues!"
"Prepare for battle." Tron leaned against the wall beside the door, holding up the weapon in his hand. He gasped and sweated on his forehead, but he had not done any vigorous activities just now.
"Who else is sweating?" Qiao Duo asked.
"I feel uncomfortable." Pengpeng gasped heavily, and the chrysanthemum-breaking cone fell to the ground made a crisp sound. "I think I'm going to die..."
"Drink water." Feiqi was able to divide his energy into talking while analyzing the spell.
After replenishing the water bag, everyone's symptoms were indeed relieved. The restless mood gradually calmed down and his body also recovered some strength. Pengpeng raised his head and drank all his water bag before others organized it. He grabbed the broken chrysanthemum cone, turned over and jumped up, and said vigorously: "Let the horse come and neigh!"
"You should keep some." Qiao Duo gave his water bag to the goblins and looked at Feiqi. He couldn't help but wonder why Feiqi was not affected at all - he was neither sweating nor excited, nor was he weak, and he didn't even need to drink water. Feiqi was still focused on the disassembly and calculation of runes. Oh, now the runes have begun to condense.
"merdaesai tolyraes", this is the benchmark rune of magic related to ice. Combined with other descriptions, controls, and changes, runes can be combined into some simple ice magic, such as ice hockey. In Feiqi's understanding, ice magic should not be a simple creation of ice hockey, projected ice cones, and then rely on kinetic energy, that is, to create damage through impact. The real ice magic should be to transmit a low temperature state, absorb the opponent's heat energy, and thus achieve the effect of destruction.
This is just like flame magic does not equal combustion. Burning is just an oxidation reaction - although the concept of oxidation does not occur in Yongli Continent, it does not hinder its existence - the most essential essence of flame magic should be heat conduction.
The rune is floating on Fitch's right wrist and slowly circulates around the track of the magic matrix, flickering and dark. It is absorbing mana, stabilizing its form, and then becoming a rune button available in the magic matrix.
There is no better teaching than observing the generation process of runes with one's own eyes. Qiao Duo can be said to be blinded. But the monsters outside gradually approached, and the heavy footsteps became clearer and clearer. They had to make a choice whether to continue hiding in this narrow room, or rush out to fight in the castle, or return to the courtyard as usual?
"Clutch the mouse hole first." Feiqi sighed: "Calm down, okay? Isn't it just a monster?"
"Your calmness is a bit too strange, as if you are not afraid of death at all." Qiao Duo winked at the girls, and they tore off part of Shani's long skirt, wrapped some debris, and then filled it into the mouse hole. Qiao Duo went to check it first, and then asked Shani to pour some water on the entrance of the hole as a warning. Then he looked at Feiqi: "Will you make people feel a little scared, do you understand?"
"First calm down and deal with the enemy, and then there is time to tell jokes to eliminate fear." Feiqi kept staring at his right wrist, and the runes kept moving. However, his left hand was not idle, and he was also making various gestures in the air.
The nine-way magic seal "The Realm of True Knowledge" is running. Since Feiqi hid the magic seal, there was no strangeness on his left hand. With the ability of "recalling knowledge and judging right and wrong" in the realm, Feiqi can quickly find clues among the numerous ice spells and spells, and then correctly deduce them to find the key basic runes that can be used as the magic matrix. If the short spell provided by Qiao Duo is a key, then the realm magic array is the hand that rotates the key.
However, the Realm of True Knowledge is not the reason why he is particularly calm. When the monster's low growls affect others, Feiqi found that he was not "moved". His heartbeat did not accelerate, his blood did not rush, his skin remained dry, and he did not sweat a single drop. He felt that this roar was familiar, and he seemed to have heard it somewhere. Of course, it would not be the zoo in his previous life - although it looked like a bear's call, there were still some subtle differences.
Feiqi tried hard to recall, but even if he used the magic array of the True Knowledge Domain, he still didn't think it out. Forget it, hurry up and condense the runes! Feiqi adjusted the left-handed magic seal and replaced the True Knowledge Domain with the Legal Armed Forces. The Legal Armed Forces can enhance the stability of "the main attributes of something", killing for weapons, defense for armor, and effectiveness for spell runes.
The role that legal armament and the realm of truth can play in combat is very back in various magic seals, but they are the auxiliary seals that Feiqi needs most at present. When there is no magic seal, it takes several weeks to solidify the "flash" and "extinguish". Now this time is calculated in minutes. The ice rune has become solidified, and the last step is to press it into the "keyboard" of the magic matrix.
"There is movement outside the door!" Tron whispered. Sure enough, there were slow and dense footsteps in the aisle outside the door, as if five or six people were queuing up the stairs. Everyone felt strange, so they listened intently. Just as everyone was focusing on the sound outside the door, the clerk's dry body slowly sat up.
It poked out its hand and slowly reached towards the flail beside it. This weapon would almost die if it waved and hit the head in a sudden sneak attack. The closest one was Feiqi, who was facing away from it, focusing on the magic matrix. It didn't even need to move, and it could complete the sneak attack by continuing to sit on the ground.
The hand of the corpse had touched the handle of the flail, and a smile appeared on its dry and wrinkled face. At this extremely nervous moment, a big ear and big mouthed goblin appeared in the mummy's vision, and curious eyes kept emitting from a pair of big eyes. Pengpeng stabbed the mummy's eye socket with a knife, quickly pulled it out, then stabbed it into his chin, followed by one ear.
Pengpeng's chrysanthemum-breaking cone is very fast, and this speed is not only used, but also sharp. It avoids the swaying leather armor of the mummy and pierces it specifically through the gaps, mostly the joints, bones and the location of vital internal organs. It strictly follows what it learned in the Ice Peak Fortress and launches its offensive with the "fast and effective strikes on the key points" method instilled by Feiqi. He raises his hands and falls, and the tiger makes a tiger and pokes nine times in a row, and finally breaks the chrysanthemum.
The dry corpse tilted its head and stared at Pengpeng, and its eyes seemed to be full of grievances. I don’t know if it was wronged because of failure or because all parts of the hit were embarrassed. Of course, the dry corpse does not have "critical points", after all, it does not have available internal organs, and it does not rely on them.
"Pengpeng protects the chief hiss!" The goblin pulled back the chrysanthemum cone and kicked the mummy in the face. The mummy fell down and it "dead" because the key structure of the body was destroyed. No one knows which knife it was.
"You three!" Qiao Duo seemed very angry: "What am I asking you to do? Protect Feiqi! What are you doing, you are not as good as a goblin!"
The three girls lowered their heads. Their attention was also attracted by the strange footsteps outside the door, and they ignored their tasks. Qiao Duo changed his usual hippie and smiled and became particularly stern: "It's okay to play for a while, how can you..."
"Don't talk, they're here!"
As soon as Tron finished speaking, the door of the storage room was smashed. The iron bars on the door were still firm, but the wood between the iron bars was quickly damaged, and a sharp axe blade appeared from it. Through the hole, four dry zombies were waving their sharp weapons and attacking each other outside the door.
"It's the monster hunters before Gujian Castle, and they are still carrying badges!" Tron glanced out, then raised his crossbow bow and shot out through the hole in the door. The crossbow arrow strengthened by the armor-breaking seal accurately hit the zombie's head, and then exploded with some lightning. One zombie fell down, and the other three were unmoved at all, and continued to chop.
"I want to use this monster to kill us?" Qiao Duo's anger was not yet relieved, and he frowned and looked out, and Tron shot another one to death. The zombies outside the door were still waving their axes. The door had been cut to pieces, and only some iron bars were still insisting on it. In this way, shooting was even more convenient. Annie pulled a huge bow and nailed a zombie to the wall opposite the door with one arrow.
The zombie was not dead. It threw out the axe in its hand with both hands and chopped it on the door with a loud bang. With this, the door finally broke. The zombie at the door used its claws to split the fragments, stretched its head and drilled into it.
Qiao Duo waved his machete and cut off his head that was close to him. "That's it? Five zombies are coming to attack? What's the use of this?"
Before he finished speaking, the zombie on the wall suddenly exploded, and countless lightning appeared in front of everyone like fireworks. Most of these lightning hit the wall, and only a few came in through the door. Qiao Duo raised his hand to block it, feeling a burning moment in his arms, and the lightning left a row of black scorch marks.
"The corpses will explode! Throw them out!" Benny grabbed the half of the corpse stuffed in the door hole and pushed it out hard. At this moment, the second corpse exploded, and there was still lightning. Everyone hurriedly dodged, and Fitch hid in the impact blind spot on the side of the door hole.
"I saw that monster is outside!" Benny just finished speaking, another one exploded outside. She hurriedly fell to the ground and shouted, "It's the monster who is doing it. It's using some kind of spell."
"Don't worry about the outside, just deal with the inside." Feiqi pointed to the dead clerk zombie. "Twist it into the secret passage!"
Qiao Duo and Tron fought together, threw the zombies into the secret passage, and then closed the cabinet door. The fourth explosion rang out outside, this time the most violent. The entire door was blown up, and the wood pieces flew around and hit the walls of the room. Fortunately, the iron bars were not blown away, but they also turned into a broken fence, lying crookedly on the ground.
A tall black shadow appeared at the door, almost three meters tall. It bent over and curled up, with the black bat wings gathered behind it, and its long tail like a whip twisted to maintain balance. Its body was long and black, with a baboon-like face. The monster opened its mouth, and half a head appeared in the middle of its sharp teeth, just in the position where it should be its tongue.
Hood's head was only left with the first half, and the gloomy and terrifying face made a quarrel smile at everyone. Tron raised his hand and made a crossbow! The monster's body tilted and he easily avoided it.
