Chapter 658 Gifts from Ancestors (48)

"Du Zhengyi."

A hand grabbed Du Zhengyi's arm, and an invisible force knocked Blue Eyes out at the same time. Du Zhengyi vaguely felt that the one who released him was the clownfish, using some technique he was not familiar with, the method was short and powerful, but not fatal enough.

Blue Eyes rolled over and landed in the distance, neither rushing up nor leaving. It crouched in the distance like a wild beast, staring at them viciously.

Du Zhengyi was sure of two things: one was that there was more than one blue-eyed figure, and two was that the person next to him was Clownfish and not Roach.

He was laid flat on the ground, and the clownfish quickly checked his injuries, using medical magic in a very methodical manner. It couldn't be considered particularly professional, but it was very skilled.

"One of your ribs is broken. I can use external force to fix it, but that's all I can do. I taught myself all the medical magic, so I don't dare use high-level growth magic to speed up the healing process. It would be bad if it grows crooked. Next, as long as you don't do any strenuous activity, you should be fine as long as you can hold on until the professional doctor comes." said the clownfish.

Du Zhengyi nodded slightly, and looked at the figures who were watching them from afar. The blue-eyed barbarian didn't run away, which meant he was still waiting for an opportunity to attack again, but the clownfish had his back to them and fixed his ribs, as if he didn't care about them at all.

As if it could see what he was thinking, the clownfish, who was casting medical magic, said, "Their real bodies are not here."

Du Zhengyi glanced at him and waited for him to continue. The severe pain made him not want to talk, but his peripheral vision was still keeping an eye on those "people".

"No matter how much they look like humans, they are just sealed beasts. Something has occupied their brains and is controlling them. This brain is very smart. Judging from their appearance, they must have suffered setbacks somewhere. Now their brains will only make them launch sneak attacks and will not fight head-on. Now that I don't seem to take them seriously, their brains have become suspicious and will not rush to attack." The clownfish said calmly, seeming to be in control of the sudden situation before him with ease.

He also handled Du Zhengyi's medical first aid with ease. "Take care of the pain yourself. You battle mages are no worse than doctors at relieving your own pain."

Du Zhengyi did have such ability, but he did nothing. Isolating pain only has positive significance in extreme cases. The price of reducing pain is to weaken the sensitivity of nerves. His lack of vigilance has already cost him a rib.

He said nothing, took a few breaths calmly, and habitually pressed his pockets again, all empty. He thought for a while, and finally took out a pack of cigarettes that he had hidden from Roche's inner pocket. There are really many areas where the magic special poor students are lacking, such as this basic and obscure little magic, Roche will be like a blind cat and can't see it, so he can leave a little stock for himself in special times.

He took a cigarette and put it in his mouth. A little magic made the cigarette butt burn. He exhaled the smoke slowly and psychologically felt that he should be calmer.

The clownfish watched him smoke and asked for one. He handed the cigarette over and watched the clownfish's cigarette butt light up with sparks. The clownfish's face was blurry, but he could tell that he was very skilled in blowing out the cigarette. They finished smoking in silence, and when the cigarette was about to burn his fingers, the clownfish suddenly threw it away. He must have been lost in thought. His "face" turned to face Du Zhengyi, and Du Zhengyi could only feel by instinct that he was staring at him.

"Aren't you worried about the mission failing? Those things will attack us again soon. Since they won't leave, they have set their sights on us. Although they are unwilling to act rashly, they won't give us too much time." asked the clownfish.

"You have already figured out what to do." Du Zhengyi said simply, using an affirmative tone, and was too lazy to bother with him.

The clownfish was embarrassed, so he said, "You really know me well."

Unexpectedly, Du Zhengyi said seriously, "Even though Luo Qi was still a wizard apprentice, he had never been helpless in a desperate situation."

The clownfish stood up and stared at Du Zhengyi for longer than it should have. Du Zhengyi suddenly realized that it would be very difficult to judge a person's true thoughts if you couldn't see his or her micro-expressions.

Most people are transparent in front of a mind mage like Clownfish, but he is so cautious that he won't even show his face. No one can easily guess his true thoughts. He has indeed achieved "no such person" in every aspect. Du Zhengyi is not sure whether the confusion he sees from Clownfish is real. He just instinctively feels that Clownfish is hesitating, but he doesn't know what he is hesitating about. Clownfish is too complicated, unlike Roche, who is too simple.

He heard some faint, ominous sounds, and even familiar sounds. The blue eyes were also touched. They also heard the sound. Judging from their agitation, their hearing might be much better than Du Zhengyi's. The agitation would soon turn into an attack on them. Du Zhengyi wanted to stand up, and this action stimulated the blue eyes and the brain behind them. They obviously judged Du Zhengyi as a more dangerous target. Du Zhengyi saw from the corner of his eye that the two blue eyes' body postures were pressed down, and the attack was at this moment. He also saw that the clownfish's body posture was extremely relaxed. He even seemed to be in a daze in this situation. Du Zhengyi suddenly realized that he would actually save him. This behavior was simply redundant and ridiculous.

Blue Eyes jumped up swiftly, but the ceiling suddenly exploded at this moment, and a huge, wriggling gray-black mass of flesh fell from the ceiling, exploding into moving strips of flesh in the air. It wasn't strips of flesh, Du Zhengyi revised his judgment, it was snakes. They were old acquaintances, and it seemed that the order to close some of the sealed beasts just now had not killed these low-level creatures. These snakes had gathered again at some point, contrary to their previous harmless appearance, and fell from the exploded ceiling and swam straight to attack the blue-eyed creatures.

The snakes were very fast, especially these ones. The humanoids seemed to have an instinctive fear of snakes. The blue-eyed ones screamed in horror. They kept crushing the snakes' heads and tearing them off. However, the snakes seemed to be driven by some force to attack them continuously. The snakes kept wriggling around the "people" and gnawing at them. Their cries became more and more panicked and miserable.

This is really disgusting.

The clownfish didn't react at all, and leaned over to help Du Zhengyi stand up. "Let's go first, let's leave here, we're not sure what else will appear later."

I'm coming!
