Facts have proved that the "Sword in the Stone" improvised with a glowing black stone attached to it did not achieve the outstanding effect that Duan Qing expected at all. He did not want to speculate on the reason. After all, he He is not an expert in the free world. He has no spare time to understand the purpose and characteristics of every item and monster in this game. The situation at this moment does not allow him to think too much about the reason, because the sword The elemental creatures hit by the rocks above have been knocked away again.
The effect is indeed there, but it seems to be different from Duan Qing's initial expectation.
Perhaps because of the fear of the power shown by the woman before, or perhaps because of the real fear of the energy contained in the green-glowing black stone, in the next few attacks, the woman who was wrapped in a metal-like sphere His body was beaten back repeatedly by the woman's horizontal and vertical slashes, showing no intention of parrying or fighting back. However, in the eyes of people like Duan Qing, the elemental creature's retreat does not seem to be passive, but that it has been constantly floating left and right, dodging the attacks of the Snow Spirit Phantom Ice.
"It's still useful...it's still useful!" After muttering to himself, Duan Qing shouted to Xue Ling Huan Bing again: "It's scared! Try hitting it!"
The next moment, the eyes in the black cloak shone brightly - the woman with the same idea no longer tried to test it, but instead faced the attacks flying around, she walked directly in front of it.
Boom!
Another sound of metal hitting sounded, but Duan Qing no longer cared about his uncomfortable ears - he stared closely at the place where the elemental creature had just been attacked, except for a shallow mark. Except for this, nothing else was found.
"How could...eh?"
Just when he was about to overturn his idea again, he suddenly found that the earth element, which seemed to be unharmed at all, swayed its spherical body to a distance, once again widening the distance between it and the Snow Spirit Phantom Ice.
"What's happening here?"
"It's hard to say." Facing the woman's question, Duan Qing said with a wry smile: "It feels like...our method is useless. This guy doesn't seem to be killed so easily. But... ..."
"One thing is for sure: it's afraid of the energy in there."
Nodding in agreement, the woman looked at the elemental creatures still floating in the distance, and once again assumed an offensive posture: "Then what should we do next? Are we just going to waste it like this?"
"It's better than the previous situation." Duan Qing looked at the boulder in the distance, and then observed the situation around the hall: "It really doesn't work... we can only waste it like this. "
"Only on me?"
"Of course, I don't have a sword in the stone."
The woman under the black hood glanced at Duan Qing and seemed to have given up on continuing meaningful negotiations with this man. She waved her sword and charged forward again.
"Brother! Brother, are you still there..."
The vast hall was filled with the atmosphere of battle, but the battle at this time was much less intense than the previous battles - the elemental creatures who were unwilling to come into direct contact with the stone were slowly moving forward at the woman's step. He kept escaping under the pressure, and finally even circled around the hall. Duan Qing, who was helpless against the metal shell, took this opportunity to run to the boulder again, wanting to continue his previous mission of saving people.
But this time, there was still no response to his call.
"I... tried it just now." Art on the side came over at some point: "But, but he didn't answer me, has he, has he... "
"He's not dead, don't talk nonsense." Duan Qing interrupted the other party's sobbing, looked up and down the cave, and then circled half a circle around the boulder in the corner: "I always feel like something is wrong... ."
"There won't be any other magic on this stone, right?"
He muttered to himself and patted the surface of the boulder, but as mentioned before, Duan Qing, who lacked information, still couldn't see anything else from the boulder. Only the solid touch reminded him. To him, the boulder seemed to be a real stone as he saw it.
"Well, an earth element can only use physical attacks. I don't believe it..." He looked up again at the top of the hall, into the pitch-black sky where the green light couldn't shine: "Look Is it because of the light that you can't come out?"
He returned his gaze to the battlefield not far away, and suddenly noticed something unusual: "Speaking of which..."
"This place seems to be getting greener?"
As far as Duan Qing could see, the entire stone hall seemed to be filled with blue-green light. The stone pillars that were originally extinguished due to falling seemed to glow again under some strange effect. Those lights are like growing creatures, gradually expanding in this area, and then... becoming more and more dazzling.
"This is......"
After breaking away from the two figures chasing each other back and forth, Duan Qing finally discovered the abnormal green light glowing in the entire hall and the possible meaning behind this phenomenon. He looked around worriedly and found that even the stone statues and gravel chips placed in the corners began to show signs of being shrouded in green.
"Something is wrong..."
call!
Before he had time to come to a conclusion and remind his companions of some changes that had occurred on the scene, the elemental creature had already made its own reaction in advance - after dodging the attack of the snow spirit phantom ice again, the guy with the spherical body It seemed to have become anxious, and it suddenly accelerated, carrying the surrounding earth, rocks and debris, and flew out towards the entrance of the cave where Duan Qing and the others came from. The sweeping air blew Duan Qing's figure staggering, and it was not until the Snow Spirit Fantasy Ice arrived that he realized what had just happened.
"It ran away?"
"It seems... yes."
"Do we...have to run too?"
Pointing to the increasingly abnormal appearance in the hall, Duan Qing asked the other two people: "Should we... be afraid of things that even earth elements are afraid of?"
The three people who were still standing looked at each other for a few times, and then...ran in the same direction in which the elemental creature flew out before.
"Hey, what should I do about Nan Tieshan..." Someone's questioning voice came from the darkness.
"Wish yourselves the best of luck!"
It didn't take long for everyone to run through the short passage, and the collapsed stone gate with countless rubbles piled up before was now completely opened - outside the stone gate was the cliff where the wind and snow were still blowing, and the stone gate was The instigator of the crash was lingering on the edge of the crack outside the door.
"Hoo, ho, ho... I don't know what happened, but this place is only so big." Holding his knees, Duan Qing wiped the cold sweat from his face: "What if If something explodes in that hall..."
"Why didn't it escape?" Different from Duan Qing's focus, Xueling Huanbing still cared about the enemy she had been driving away.
"There is no place to run. If you say that earth elements can fly, I will never believe it..."
"Then how did it get up before?"
"How do I know? Ask it...be careful!"
A yellow light mixed with countless debris extended along the ground in the direction of Duan Qing and the others. In a hurry, the three of them had no choice but to rush in different directions to avoid this hard-to-find attack. . With a teeth-piercing friction sound, a ground thorn made of earth and stone suddenly emerged from the place where they were standing. The cold light on the spike made everyone who saw this scene feel stunned. There is no doubt about the powerful destructive power that spike can cause.
"It finally used magic to attack!" Duan Qing shouted: "Be careful, this guy seems to be desperate!"
The body was shaking constantly, and the red light was getting stronger and stronger. The earth element, which was forced to a dead end, seemed to no longer want to retain its strength, and just erupted on the edge of the cliff. More yellow light mixed with the surrounding debris continued to advance towards the surroundings, turning into countless spikes on the floor like ripples, completely covering the area centered on the earth element. On the spherical body in the wind and snow, more yellow light is constantly seeping out from its interior, and then flowing outward with its will like running water, and then turning into more substantial spikes, pricking it. enemies around.
As time goes by, the yellow light seems to be getting stronger and stronger. Correspondingly, the safe area where Duan Qing and others can stay is getting smaller and smaller.
"Hey, are there any long-range attacks? Think of a way..." Duan Qing shouted in the direction of Xueling Huanbing, but unexpectedly saw the panting figure of the woman half-kneeling on the ground.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"It's okay." The woman supported the sword and slowly stood up: "It's just the sequelae of a certain skill..."
"Hey, why do you like it so much..." Looking at the increasingly intense green light reflected from behind the passage, Duan Qing gritted his teeth and pulled out his black dagger: "Put all the questions away. Stacked together..."
"Hey." He asked in a medium voice: "Tell me quickly, how to use the fatal attack?"
"Have you not understood it yet?" The woman's tired voice was full of surprise: "As long as you successfully perform an attack that can kill the enemy, there is a high probability that you will be able to understand this skill. Because you need to kill with one hit, you will usually Targeting the enemy's weaknesses..."
"Okay, who can tell me where this guy's weakness is?"
"The core position of elemental creatures is not fixed. If I knew, it would be your turn..."
"No, its weakness is the heart. Every earth spirit has one..."
"Okay, okay Art, you don't need to explain, you just need to tell me where its heart is!"
"Well, the elders once said that the hearts of earth spirits are at their centers..."
"The center, right?" Looking at the approaching spikes, Duan Qing gestured with the sword in his hand: "If you lied to me... forget it, now I can only take a gamble."
He stared closely at the figure surrounded by layers of thorns, with the increasingly intense yellow light, and concentrated all his energy.
"Do you need any help?"
"No need, only one person is enough to fight for his life."
"But Mr. Qingshan, there are so many spikes..."
"Don't interrupt, I'm looking for an opportunity..."
"Hurry up, if you keep stalling, that hall will..." Xue Ling Huan Bing looked back anxiously in the direction leading to the hall, but the scene there made her almost bite her own finger. Tongue.
Amid the strong green light, a figure holding a boulder appeared there.
"Nantieshan!"
Duan Qing, who was concentrating, also turned around in surprise.
"I... lost my station in the capital."
Because the green light behind the man was too bright, Duan Qing and others could only see a black figure struggling to lift the boulder, and the other party ignored the shouts of the other people and continued to move forward.
"Messed up my mission again."
The green light behind the figure became stronger and stronger, and the edge of the light even intersected with the yellow light emitted by the earth element in the air, making a crackling sound, but no one present seemed to notice it. They just watched. The dark shadow seemed to be waiting for his next move.
"Now...you still want me to...accept failure again?"
As the voice suddenly increased in volume, the body that was bent down due to the gravity suddenly straightened up: "An... earth element who only knows how to play with stones!"
The big man in black armor had veins all over his face, and all the muscles in his body seemed to be stretched like an iron plate: "Bah!"
"I...fuck you..."
The green light became more intense, and the next moment, the light seemed to explode and turned into a dazzling white.
"Sister!"
The moment the white light approached, the big man in black armor threw the boulder he held high forward with great force. Perhaps it was because of the strong airflow that erupted at the same time as his throwing movement, and the boulder that was rapidly moving forward was brought out. The roaring sound is like the never-ending storm deep in the sea.
"Moshang Qingshan——"
This was the last shout made by the big man before he fell to the ground, but when others heard the sound and looked at the latter, the man had disappeared where he originally stood.
When passing the boundary line of colors, the color surrounding the boulder gradually changed from green to yellow, but the castration did not diminish at all. The irritable earth element also noticed the attack of the boulder that was originally part of his body. Come, the red eyes under the spherical shape flickered, and an earthy yellow light emitted from its body, sweeping towards the flying boulder, as if it wanted to regain control of the boulder. hands. But just as the ray of light hit the boulder, a black sword light suddenly appeared directly in front of the spherical body. The black light mixed with red loomed, and then disappeared in an instant. It seemed that it had never appeared in that spherical body. In time and space, the confirmation brought by the black light still remained on the body of the earth element - in the middle of its originally extremely hard body, a small black hole appeared there as if appearing out of thin air. The element's next will, which was about to be realized, was also stopped due to the sudden appearance of the black hole.
The next moment, the boulder hit the earth element's body.
The next moment, the burst of air was like a storm that had been suppressed for thousands of years. It spurted out from the stone door towards the world outside the gap, and at the same time blew everything at the entrance of the cave into the wind and snow outside the cliff.
