Planeswalker My Plane War
Chapter 507 The Guardian of the Contract 3
Chapter 507 The Guardian of the Contract 3
Hu Chen unfolded the spear in his hand and hit three or five consecutive shots.The sub-giant's knight skills are completely useless.It's not that the knight skill has failed, but that Hu Chen's lethality at this moment has surpassed the opponent's ability to reduce damage.
Don't say that his body is just "like brass", even if his body is really brass at this moment, it can't stop the edge of the spear enchanted.
Huchen didn't attack the opponent's vital points, but aimed at the opponent's hands, feet, shoulders and other non-lethal positions.But even so, these five or six shots are not something the sub-giant can bear.When Huchen retracted his gun and retreated, he saw that the sub-giant was already lying on the ground, howling miserably.
Therefore, the Rakshasa is a very strong creature. He is not only strong, but also agile. He moves extremely fast while having great strength.In addition, he is more gifted with magical abilities. With the blessing of magic, his hand-to-hand combat ability can be directly improved by several levels.
In contrast, creatures like the sub-giants are inferior.The strength is great, but the agility cannot keep up. It is difficult to resist the enemy's counterattack without wearing heavy armor. It can only be carried hard, or the two sides exchange blood.It would be a disadvantage to meet an opponent like Rakshasa who took into account both strength and agility.
As long as it is flesh and blood, it is impossible to be fine after so many stabs.The sub-giant fell to the ground, having completely lost the power to resist.
Xiao Huihui took the opportunity to step forward, bit the corner of the keel, and dragged it to Zhang Cheng's feet.Zhang Cheng looked at the bone, only to realize that it was not the original one, but the edge was slightly modified to make it easier to hold.
He picked it up casually... it was a little lighter than expected, but he still needed to hold it with both hands.
"Do I still need to be responsible now?" Zhang Cheng asked, dragging the keel forward a few steps.
"No, no, no..." No matter what the IQ of the sub-giants, they are at least intelligent creatures.As long as it is an intelligent creature, it will not make a wrong answer in this situation. "My lord, I was wrong, I shouldn't make trouble out of nothing..."
The few blows just now have completely dispelled his confidence.Looking back now, I knew that if the other party wanted to kill someone, then what was stabbed at this moment was not the arm, thigh or the like, but the heart and head.
"You should be wise and obey those who are stronger than you." Zhang Cheng said. "Are you a sub-giant?"
"Yes, yes, yes." The sub-giant looked at the Raksha demon beside him. Although the Raksha demon retreated a little, it was still staring at it. Obviously, as long as Zhang Cheng gave an order, he would immediately pounce on it again.
"Why are you attacking others here?" Zhang Cheng asked.The crocodile man next to him had already got up, but he didn't dare to go forward, but hid aside.Although the matter was caused because of him, now the protagonists here have become Zhang Chenghe and Yajuan.
"I, I... want to meet the city lord here, Tian Ge."
"why?"
"Because I can't see him under normal circumstances. I heard that he is the guardian of the contract, so I want to meet him."
"Is he not in the city?" Zhang Cheng asked puzzled. "He is the guardian of the contract, that is to say, he guards any contract?"
This is too inexplicable, right?
He had heard the title before.But in Zhang Cheng's mind, this title probably means that the contract reached in this Tailuo city will be notarized, and the city lord will be responsible for supervising the fulfillment (if someone intends to breach the contract).This earthling is easy to understand.It is almost equivalent to the court or notary office of the earth.In this way, merchants can dispel their worries and conduct legitimate trade.
"I heard that's the case. He will be responsible for fulfilling all contracts...I have a very important contract..."
Anyway, Zhang Cheng rolled his eyes.I feel that this product is a mallet, causing trouble for no reason.
A flash of lightning came from afar, and Huchen's figure flashed, pulling Zhang Cheng away.The electric light directly hit the sub-giant.
I could only hear the crackling of the sub-giant's body, but it seemed to be hung on a high-voltage wire, with blue arcs beating repeatedly.In just a few seconds, the sub giant's whole body was already scorched black.
Five or six people who knew at a glance that they were guards had already rushed over.
"Who is fighting here? All fighting is strictly prohibited in Tailuo City!" A voice came from afar.
However, the onlookers had no intention of retreating. In fact, the number of people eating melons had increased significantly.Everyone obviously wants to eat this big melon.Accompanied by the sound, in the blink of an eye, five or six people who were obviously guards rushed over.
Zhang Cheng noticed that among the melon-eating crowd, someone took out something similar to glasses and put it on himself.
"Excellent, five legends!" He said, his eyes turned to Zhang Cheng again. "It's not bad here, one of the three is close to the holy rank, and the other two are also legendary."
"Three? Obviously there are only two people, okay." Someone beside him retorted.
"That dog too." The melon eater replied. "It looks simple, but it is actually a very dangerous thing. This must be a magical beast... How can there be such a magical beast? It should be a deformation effect."
Five or six guards were dressed in rather strange clothes. Three of them wore light blue uniforms with ugly red epaulettes—this was the first time Zhang Cheng had seen such things as epaulets in this world.The other two were in red armor.
They all look human in appearance.But Zhang Cheng knew that it shouldn't be so in theory, it should be some kind of magical effect.In addition, the speed at which they rushed over just now was indeed astonishing.According to Zhang Cheng's judgment, this may require "oiling the soles of the feet". No, "oiling the soles of the feet" is not enough. It may be possible to add "advanced acceleration" to achieve this speed.
Converted to the speed of people on Earth, this is about seventy or eighty yards.It can be seen that the magic in this world still has a lot of room for improvement.Of course, it may also be that humans are not considered a race proficient in magic in this world.
"Hu Chen, what do you think they look like?" Zhang Cheng asked.
"I see five tiger sides," Hu Chen replied. "But it should be fake."
After all, Rakshasa is a master of illusion, so he can change his appearance at will through illusion.They also have a keen sense of illusion.
While speaking, a group of people had already rushed not far in front of Zhang Cheng.
"You guys," said the leader. "It violated the rules here."
"Rules!" said someone next to him.Relying on the different languages of different races, they don't shy away from speaking at all.Anyway, if people listen to it, outsiders can't understand it. "You can't fight in the city... It seems like a good rule, but if you can't even defend yourself, it's the worst rule."
Zhang Cheng also came to understand a little bit, the rules in this city are not to fight, and if there is a fight, both sides will be unlucky.
Although those who took the initiative to provoke deserved what they deserved, but those who were forced to defend themselves would also be punished, that would be too... His gaze was on the sub-giant on the ground.No, no, not a simple punishment.The body of this sub-giant has turned into coke.If it is said that he is still alive, let alone an ordinary person, biologists will not believe it!
The lightning bolt just now was definitely going to kill someone!
Tsk... Zhang Cheng faintly felt anger in his heart.It doesn't matter if this sub-giant lives or dies. Although it is said that the crime is not worthy of death, at least it is considered that evil will be rewarded with evil.But for a mistake just now, he probably will also suffer this blow.
"I don't know what rule was violated?" Zhang Cheng replied.
"You can't fight here," the guard yelled.
"This is not a fight, it's just a normal martial arts competition." Zhang Cheng said. "There is no rule that says you can't learn from each other, right?"
"Sophistry!" The leading guard shouted.For some reason, he found that the person in front of him seemed to be changing.Some kind of... hard to describe but definitely happening again.But this should be an illusion, because immediately everything returned to normal.
"Be patient...be patient...wait a minute..." Zhang Cheng said a few words softly. "This is just an ordinary contest, a friendly one. Of course," Zhang Cheng looked at the sub-giant who had been electrocuted into a ball of coke. "It's not so friendly anymore."
"This kind of sophistry is useless." said the leading guard. "Put down your weapon obediently."
"Oh, what if you put down your weapons? So what if you don't."
"Put down your weapon so that you die quickly, don't you put down your weapon," said the guard. "I'll let you know what cruelty is!"
"It turned out that it wasn't an accidental injury." Zhang Cheng nodded in surprise. "That is to say, as long as there is a fight in the city, both sides of the fight will be executed together... No wonder most people are so civilized and polite. But," he laughed, and the smile gradually became wider and wider, until it reached the limit , like the face of a clown. "This is a bit too arrogant!"
According to the standards of this world, these few are nothing more than legends.
But when it comes to fighting, any legendary holy rank can only be regarded as a reference, not everything.Because in addition to the level, there are attribute bonuses and debuffs.
Huchen can't use the normal level to calculate his strength, because not only his attributes are super high, but he is also talented in both magic and martial arts and protective force field.Really fight, that strength is extremely strong.
"The law is dead, but people are alive. People can't control the law, which means they either can't or don't want to. Are you unwilling or can't?"
But these guards didn't want to spend any more time, and they didn't want to listen to Zhang Cheng's nonsense.Someone had already made a move, and a magical lightning flashed, but was blocked by Huchen's protective force field.
"It's quite powerful, it's really half a holy step," said someone from the guards. "No wonder you're so arrogant."
"This is not arrogance. You don't give others a way out, and you accuse others of arrogance." Zhang Cheng said. "So that's the case, it's not that I can't, it's that I don't want to, maybe there are other things."
"I will suppress this tiger side. As for the human dimension pocket, give it to me afterwards!" said a guard.
"Nonsense! There must be a lot of good things in that pocket! You can't keep it to yourself!"
"Yes, everyone has a share. This kind of opportunity is rare."
"It turns out that when I was shopping just now, someone noticed that I had a dimensional pocket." Zhang Cheng smiled.It's just that the smile is as ferocious as a ghost. "Then find this opportunity. What is your reliance?"
The leader took out something, and in an instant, colorful rays of light emerged from the void above Hu Chen's head, like a cover, covering Hu Chen upright.
"Kill him first, that tiger side is controlled by my mental illusion." The leader said. "Pay attention to his dog, that dog is a magical beast, and it is also at the legendary level."
Set aside one person to deal with Xiao Huihui, and the other side is three against one, and there is no reason to lose.
The situation at hand is not actually the best way for a planeswalker to fight.The best way for planeswalkers to fight is to hide far away and send out their own card creatures to besiege the opponent.If you win, you can clean the battlefield to collect loot, and if you lose, you can slip away without any harm.Just like an aircraft carrier, its own firepower is poor and weak, and it needs carrier-based aircraft to exert its combat power.Planeswalkers aren't mages after all.
But having said that, a planeswalker can indeed pretend to be a mage-as long as he has enough spell cards in his hand.
The planeswalker took out a few cards before they could charge.Several magical flashes of light flashed, and countless crystal-like shining blades appeared around his body. These blades rotated rapidly, forming an immovable vertical barrier, blocking in front of him.
"What is this? Is it ice?"
"No, it's a force field!" someone yelled.A fool can also see that anyone who wants to get close must face these rotating force field blades.After a round of cuts, you will not die or lose half your life. "What kind of spell is this? I've never seen it before!"
The planeswalker reached for a pistol, thought it over before putting it back, and pulled out an automatic rifle with two magazines attached.
Then there was the sound of gunfire like a storm.
The magic in this world is stronger than attack, weaker than defense.Compared with the magic net, the magic tide is too unstable, and it is difficult to support a stable and reliable protective magic.But even in a world with magic nets, it is actually not easy to resist bullets.
The planeswalker retracted his gun and walked in front of several people.Several guards were already lying on the ground at this moment.
They weren't dead yet, because Zhang Cheng's bullets mainly hit the hands, feet and limbs, and didn't hit fatal vital organs such as the head and chest.Of course, if you leave it alone, you will die if you bleed too much.
There is only one exception, and that is the person who claims to have controlled Hu Chen.The problem is that the Rakshasa family is spiritually immune, so when he was distracted to pay attention to his companions, he was attacked by Hu Chen in close quarters, hit the back of the head with a gun, and fell to the ground unconscious.And because of that, he didn't take a bullet.
Now Zhang Cheng walked up to these guards.All the guards looked terrified.
"He doesn't dare to kill us." One of the guards woke up and shouted at his companion. "Outsider, you won this time, I suggest you run right away." He turned his head and said to Planeswalker. "Otherwise your end..."
"Tiger Lord," said the Planeswalker. "Tongue."
Rakshasa grabbed the air with his hand, and a blue flame was born out of thin air, and he grabbed two hooks out of the flame.
