Shadow Covenant

Chapter 156 "Insect Swarm"

But before Paige, the guard captain of Green Creek Town, came over, many members of the Angry Winter Merchant Group noticed the strangeness of the lord of Green Creek Town in front of him.

"Look!"

"What is he doing?"

"Bigger..."

……

Everyone talked a lot, and not far away, Baron Cam's expression changed from shock at the beginning to stiffness now, as if he had been frozen. At the same time, his fat and bloated body began to become more swollen, and his muscles became loose. Like a very heavy piece of clothing on a clothesline, it feels overwhelmed and crumbling.

Woody also saw the changes in Baron Cam's body. He frowned and raised his hand immediately.

"Back back and forth, step back 30 meters, stay away from it."

As he said that, he had two more weapons in his hands, a strange curved sword with a cold light, and a cold and simple steel long sword.

"leave here!"

Cecil's voice also sounded almost at the same time, obviously she also noticed something was wrong.

"Everyone retreats in an orderly manner, don't approach him!"

Cecil's staff also began to wave at the same time. As a spellcaster, no one knew better than her where the power that suddenly appeared on the Lord of Green Brook Town came from.

Bloody red.

This is clearly an evil aura from the outer planes!
Is it really as he said, this is a believer who made a contract with the devil?While casting the spell, Cecil looked out of the corner of his eye at the black-haired young man who was hunched over and looking forward. His current posture was like a cheetah. Ruthless.

Everyone retreated in an orderly manner, and they barely stopped until they were five to sixty meters away from the humanoid creature that had swollen to the size of a fountain pool.

At this moment, Baron Cam, the lord of Green Brook Town who could no longer distinguish his facial features, heard a voice that spread to the entire street.

belch.

This is the sound of being full, but it seems very strange at this time.

Then "Meat Ball" spoke.

"You damned Navians, the Northland is so poor because of you!"

Baron Cam's throat was slurred, but no one could see the resentment and hatred in the two eyes, which were larger than almonds.

In Cecil's eyes, Baron Cam, whose evil aura had bloomed to the most vigorous place, opened his mouth that did not match his size without warning, and then opened a mouth The three-foot-long crack revealed two rows of fangs that had just erupted.Immediately afterwards, a strange echo similar to that coming from a cave filled the air, with complaints and grinning.

"Why don't you just die obediently?"

"But that's okay, let's meet Cam Tumen's wrath like this! Navian bastards!"

"I want you to be with my worms!"

……

"This is……"

"Stand back, Cecil, prepare a wall of fire or ice, anything will do!"

Woody, who was the first to discover what the lord of Green Brook Town wanted to do, saw the changes in Baron Cam before him. After calmly observing, he immediately recalled that this was a monster that often appeared after the fall of the Northland in the previous life.

"Crazy Baalzebub"

The existence of "Bomb Demons" in the players' mouths is not only because they are transformed from humans who believe in "Lord of Lies" and "Grand Duke of Flying Insects" Balzebu, they will appear very bloated and huge in appearance, and they are the most lethal. The disgusting thing about people is that in addition to being able to use "flying insect breath" like Balzebu, they can also choose to self-explode like a bomb, and the blood and flesh and the eggs inside are a thorny and painful thing for the accompanying priest .

This is why Woody asked Cecil to prepare the spell immediately.

But as soon as his words fell, two magical lights fell on him, and then a feeling of floating up while standing filled his brain, and everything became extremely slow, just like a video Playback becomes normal at 0.5x speed.

This is... The blessing of the spells reminded Woody of the past when he fought side by side with the caster's teammates, and he also understood what the two spells were.

——"Acceleration technique."

— "The elegance of a group cat."

The former allows him to obtain the effect of the cat's eye potion, which has a function similar to bullet time, but compared with the weakened version of the potion, this spell has no limit on the number of times, but a certain time limit, which is the same as the elegance of the cat. It is a typical pre-war BUFF.

But Cecil's move still surprised Woody a little.

It seems that this Northland court mage named Cecil has done relevant training for the battle mage profession.

Otherwise, most spellcasters who have no combat experience prefer to bless the short-term acceleration spell during battle, but they don't know that this will bring considerable pressure to the human body, and the recoil caused by not being used to it can even dislocate a person's arm .

Fighting with smart people is naturally much easier. As soon as Woody reminded him, Cecil's "Ice Wall" spell sounded again.

Therefore, when Baron Cam, the devil believer in front of him, opened his mouth full of sharp teeth and sprayed out a black mist composed of swarms of insects, a superb scene that could only appear in the winter forest appeared in this place. In the quiet town long street.Standing fifteen feet high, the twenty-foot-long ice wall blocked the front of the crowd. The ice wall exuded a cold breath and directly divided a street into two.

boom!
I saw the unprepared black mist of the insect swarm, and in the next second, it directly hit the thick ice wall. Only a small number of flying insects that escaped their inertia survived, and did not join the raindrops that fell on the ice. Among the worms under the ice wall.

Of course, there are also some unlucky ones, the tentacles or wings are the first to touch, and they are stuck to them, so when the number accumulates to a certain extent, everyone on the other side of the ice wall looks ugly.

If there is no ice wall to block them, no matter how many of them there are, they will have nothing to do with these flying insects.

"Prepare the wind-making technique, the swarm may come again!"

Woody jumped onto the wooden boxes piled up on the side of the road. Taking advantage of its height and the extraordinary agility after blessing, he jumped onto the roof of the building in Green Brook Town, and then stood on it to observe the movement of the baron after the alienation. Cecil said.

"Crazy Baalzeb follower" is not particularly powerful in the purgatory creature template, but it is disgusting enough. If you want to solve it with peace of mind and avoid future troubles, the best way is to directly banish it and let it disappear in this position. face, unable to return.

There is another method that is more troublesome. It has to penetrate the source of evil in its body. Generally speaking, it is the key point. Unlike the heart, neck, brain and other lethal organs of humanoid creatures, any purgatory creature is not Bator. In the environment of hell, an "anchor point" similar to a stable coordinate will be born, not only to prevent the repelling power of the plane, but also to better absorb the power from the outer plane.

And if you want to kill it, the first thing to do is to destroy this anchor point. After the destruction, even if you don’t need to do it, everything it caused will return to where it should go under the influence of the power of the plane. The place.

However, their ability to regenerate is also well-known. After the limbs are cut off, they will even close to heal automatically, just like the undead ooze monster, which is very disgusting and troublesome. Fire damage can prevent them from regenerating, but if you want to Killing this creature would probably cost no less than five fireball spells, and if it was really used, then the monster could be killed, but Green Brook Town would probably be gone by then.

In addition, Green Brook Town is not the only threat in front of it. Deep in the forest, there are still a pair of malicious eyes staring at this battlefield.

If all the cards and strength are thrown out here, the next battle may become extremely difficult.

"no problem!"

Cecil frowned slightly, and took out a dozen scrolls from the ring without hesitation... The wind-making technique is a second-level spell. As Cecil and others who often sail on the sea, whether it is speeding up or getting rid of Windless belts are perfect. This kind of spells are basically the necessary reserve resources for business groups to travel.

"..."

Woody is not a rich Magistrate that I have never seen before, but if I remember correctly, the Cecil in front of me is just a caretaker of many out-of-the-way business groups in the Northland. I really don’t feel bad for taking out so much at once. ?

He had never experienced Mages' arrogance before, and it was the first time he had seen the extravagant appearance of Mages from serious backgrounds. Woody suddenly felt that the thousands of gold coins in his arms were not fragrant.

"Isn't it enough?"

Seeing that Woody was a little dazed, Cecil thought that the number was not enough, and took out a handful of scattered scrolls from the ring, which contained some other spells besides wind making, most of which were summoning.

As a mage, the most high-quality option is naturally not to go forward and confront people head-on, but to borrow the power of the summoned objects and add your own spells to defeat the opponent.

It's a bit similar to "You've been strengthened! Come on!" Of course, there are also hardcore mages who like to add a bunch of BUFFs to themselves. Except for the flash technique, they all rely on head-to-head combat.

But the number of the former is far greater than that of the latter.

"Enough, you give these to the people around you who can cast spells, and when there are insects coming, just tear them apart."

"Be careful, don't let them get close to you."

"In addition to attacking people, they also have purgatory eggs attached to their bodies, which will be very troublesome to stick on."

"Healing spells will only encourage its development and reproduction, and you don't want to be full of eggs, right?"

In the later stage of the game, Woody saw with his own eyes that in order to get rid of this kind of worm eggs, many players performed surgical operations in the game.

That scene, tsk tsk, can only be said to be cautious.

Fortunately, the most convenient and quickest thing is that an energy shield can keep most troubles out, so Woody directly squeezed a shadow shield for himself when he finished speaking.

Fayin can protect him from this threat.

But soon, his body was covered with Cecil's "resistance to energy damage" shield.

"Sengu! Go fix it!"

After adding the buff, Cecil also ordered the guards of the merchant group to attack the bloated monster still at the fountain in the middle of the street.

At the same time, the steel long sword in Woody's hand was also under a wide range of ripples, revealing a more dazzling silver light.

He looked up.

——"+1 steel long sword."

——"Mass magic weapons."

……

Tsk tsk, being rich and powerful is different.

Watching Cecil there use the buff spell on the scroll while deploying several attacking directions of the guards.

Woody didn't make the first move either. As a demon hunter, he was well versed in how to survive on the battlefield. He was not timid, but low-key and decisive.

When others don't notice you, just kill him once and for all, and there won't be too much risk.

All he has to do is steal output and observe the situation.

……

At this moment, the situation of the battle has changed. After finding that the flying insect breath attack he was proud of had failed, this Balzeb was already three or four meters tall, lying on the ground like a mountain of meat. Believers, Baron Cam showed an unusually vicious look in his eyes.

There was a growl that didn't sound like a human voice from his mouth.

Immediately afterwards, an evil aura bloomed on its body. At the same time, during the roar, small dirt bumps suddenly bulged up on the ground of the street where Woody was, and at the same time there was a strange sound from the ground, as if Someone penetrated the surface and came here.

Immediately afterwards, the soil bag exploded.

——"Withering Touch."

Tentacles with a length of one or two meters fiercely attacked the surrounding creatures indiscriminately, and the human beings who were attacked found that their bodies suddenly became weaker and their strength decreased.

Fortunately, the level of Barzeb's believers in Baron Cam's incarnation doesn't seem to be very high, and the number of tentacles is limited. Otherwise, if you change it to someone who has already transformed, it is estimated that more than half of the people can be wiped out just now.

"Bah! Good brothers, let's solve it!"

One of the middle-aged men with a strong body also wielded a scimitar, but it was just a giant saber. He easily cut off a tentacles protruding from the ground, and at the same time imitated Woody, crawling Go up to the roof and choose to go down the other side.

Before going down, the middle-aged man asked Woody if he wanted to join, but Woody shook his head and refused.

Now is not the best time. Although the monster's spell-like spells may be used indefinitely, it will also drain the potential in the body.

However, he couldn't help but watch them disappear forever, so before leaving, he still told the guards what he knew about the monsters.

The middle-aged guard laughed and patted Woody on the shoulder.

"Thank you, I'll buy you a drink later, and now I'm going to chop up the offal!"

After finishing speaking, he took a group of guards and jumped directly from the roof, under the blessing of spells.

With a body of flesh and blood, he rushed to the hideous and terrifying worm-like creature.

The roar from the North soon sounded in the center of the town, attracting the residents defending the surrounding city walls, but similarly, some eyes hidden behind the forest trees, always observing the movement here, also caught this message.
