Chapter 958: The Snake Mother's Hair
As for the hapless Halofenson, he was already in danger under Li Shuyi's twin swords.
As for the other snake man aberrations, they were also quickly cleaned up, and no snake man could come to the aid of this snake man erudite.
Bai Xiaowen's addition made it even more difficult for Hallofenson to support him, and he quickly knocked this guy to the ground and tied him with a rope. Queen Camelot also affixed a special magical imprisonment rune to Hallofenson's body, which was enough to last for 48 hours.
Of course, this kind of imprisoning rune prop will only take effect on targets that have lost the ability to resist, and it is useless to sneak around and paste them in a combat state.
"Xiaowen, let's go after it too!"
Li Shuyi said excitedly, "The snake mother Gaglila is also a lord, take this rare opportunity to kill her! There are so many snake girl bosses, these are all treasure chests." ”
Bai Xiaowen snorted: "I hope it can be as you wish." But I always felt that the snake mother retreated a little too decisively. ”
Although the two of them talked like this, they did not stop moving.
The orcs chased in front, Camelot's mage group followed, and Bai Xiaowen and the others followed in the third group.
After passing through the gap between the two rock faces, the view is wide. However, Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi suddenly paused.
Not only the two of them, but even the Camelot mages in front of them also stopped.
The orc leaders who were chasing after them had turned into a group of stone sculptures! There was still a look of shock and panic on their faces.
"What's going on?" Bai Xiaowen said.
Queen Camelot said, "I didn't see the whole process either, but it seems that I should have fallen for the petrification magic of the snake mother Gaglila." Legend has it that Medusa is among the snake women, and anyone who looks directly at her hair will be petrified, and it's true. ”
After a pause, Queen Camelot said, "These stupid orcs have been tricked and lost those snake women, and we can't rush closer. ”
Bai Xiaowen smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, you don't look nervous at all, is this okay? ”
As he spoke, Bai Xiaowen threw out an insight at one of the stone carving Kamush kings.
Queen Carmellot looked indifferent: "The life or death of these orcs has nothing to do with me, I don't take the opportunity to destroy them, it's completely bound by the oath......"
A bead of sweat appeared on the back of Bai Xiaowen's head.
Fortunately, the insights give feedback. To Bai Xiaowen's relief, King Kamush was still alive, but he had fallen into a petrified state called "Snake Mother's Hair".
[Snake Mother's Hair: Petrified, unable to move, attack, or cast, lasts 5 minutes, currently remaining: 214 seconds. While in this state, it is immune to any non-true damage below 7 and below, and cannot be moved. 】
"Whew, it seems that the petrification magic of this snake mother's hair only temporarily freezes the ability of the person who has been hit...... However, King Kamush and they can't be attacked, so this ability is not very rebellious. ”
It's right to think about it, King Kamush is close to a lord-level existence, and the orc leader around him is also a top master. It's impossible to be hit by a group of magic, even if the snake mother Gagrera is a mage-type lord, it's unlikely.
The ability to freeze action for up to 5 minutes in the petrified state is already very strong in itself, and immunity to all damage except true damage in this state is also a balance between the rules of the spirit world for this skill. Otherwise, if you are charged for five minutes, even if a small soldier comes up and stabs a person, he can be hacked to death.
"This trick of the mother snake...... The activation conditions should be harsh, or it will take a long time to prepare," Bai Xiaowen pondered for a moment, "Otherwise, they can directly launch this move when they encounter us, petrify most of our combat power and take Harofenson away." ”
"Well, that's the truth," Queen Camelot thought for a moment, "do you want to keep chasing, or wait for these orcs to wake up?"
"Stop chasing it, the main goal of this operation has been achieved. ”
Bai Xiaowen squinted his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
Soon, the orcs woke up. When mentioning the trick, this group of rough men all had angry expressions and fearful expressions.
According to the orcs' clumsy language skills, when they were pursuing, they were about to catch up with the severed snake mother, but who knew that the hair on the back of the other's head came to life like a group of poisonous snakes, and the eyes of each snake head radiated a vicious red light. When everyone saw the red light, they felt their bodies heavy, as if they had been filled with lead, and their movement speed became slower and slower.
In the end, it was completely petrified, and even the mind froze, and there was a blank period of several minutes - of course, this was only a moment for the petrified orcs.
The group walked back to the Leyline Pillars.
Looking at the towering crystal pillar, King Kamush sighed with emotion: "If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have imagined that the great Gagulie Plateau was supported by this giant pillar. ”
"We human prophets want it. Queen Camelot snorted.
"Cut. ”
King Kamush's attitude towards the queen still did not ease, but when he looked at Bai Xiaowen again, his face softened a lot.
"Lord Prophet, you are not only the prophet of mankind, but also the prophet of all races on the continent! Thank you for finding the leyline corridor of the Gagulel Plateau, if not for you...... We may not have been kept in the dark until the moment when the earthquake struck and the sea poured in. ”
Bai Xiaowen said with a smile: "This is my mission, Your Excellency the Great Chief. You don't need to thank me, after all, the orc kingdom has also paid me satisfactory for this survey. ”
Bai Xiaowen's words were also intended to remind Kamush not to forget the transaction between them......
In fact, Bai Xiaowen did this too much. King Kamush laughed loudly and promised to hand over the mother of the wolf to Bai Xiaowen and fulfill his promise.
The other orcs were also grateful to Bai Xiaowen.
Originally, some of them still had a lot of complaints about Bai Xiaowen - after all, Bai Xiaowen had done a lot of things in the Orc Kingdom in the past few days, and these orcs had a lot of sympathy for the existence of the Shadow Blade Clan based on their sense of honor.
But now, Bai Xiaowen's merits in thwarting the snake people's conspiracy and preserving the leyline corridor and leyline pillars of the Gagule Plateau have completely erased the previous discord of the orcs.
Finally, after looking around the leyline corridor, King Kamush arranged for the dozen orc leaders to lead the elite warriors of the orcs to be on duty here in shifts. Bai Xiaowen, Li Shuyi, Queen Camelot, and the mage group rode the white eagle and griffin respectively, escorting the captives back to Red Rock City.
