Chapter 144: Siege
The death toll in this battle was about thirty or so and the camp was completely destroyed. The crowd packed up their loot and retreated a few miles to rest, ready to wait for the best condition before launching a final assault on the castle. After Xiao Yu instructed Jin Shi to absorb some of the techniques of the inheritance crystal, he found him a hidden and quiet place and guarded it personally, so that he could start the inheritance of "savage collision" with peace of mind.
Three days later
Xiao Yu sat on a stone, his blood-red eyes stared at a boulder with a diameter of two meters in front of him, his eyes suddenly turned white, and the space around the boulder appeared a whirlpool-like distortion, and then the whole piece was swept into the whirlpool and disappeared. Almost at the same time, a spatial vortex appeared above, and a boulder fell from it, falling several meters away with a thud.
Xiao Yu closed his eyes, let the sour and stinging eyes recover, and after a while, he opened his eyes again to stare at the boulder, and his eyes turned white again. The spatial vortex reappeared, but this time it didn't envelop the entire stone in the vortex, which only covered half of the boulder.
Click!
There was a crisp sound, and the whole stone was not moved in place, but a layer was dug away, leaving a small half in place. In the spatial whirlpool in the other direction, large pieces of stones that had been crushed into powder floated out of it one after another, spilling all over the ground.
Xiao Yu felt a dizziness in his brain.
The current mental power strength can be used three times "Void Gaze", nine times "Bullet Time", and if the spiritual power in the Bracelet of Spiritual Power is added, then ten "Bullet Time" can be cast. This is already the limit of the body, and if you break through the limit and continue to use it, it is of course possible, but it is risky and easy to get injured.
Han Kexin and Jiang Xiaowen walked over, Jiang Xiaowen was carrying a cloth bag in her hand, and beckoned to him from afar, "Isn't the big bald head out of the customs yet?" I brought you a little to eat, and you didn't eat or drink for three days. ”
Xiao Yu took the cloth bag from Jiang Xiaowen's hand, it contained some fruits, he picked up the red fruit casually and took a bite, the fruit juice was very sufficient, very sweet and delicious. In fact, after becoming a second-order warrior, you can't starve to death if you don't eat for more than ten days, but a second-order warrior is still a human being in the end, and he hasn't reached the point where he can live without eating or drinking.
The three sat side by side on a boulder, facing the long canyon.
Han Kexin also took out a fruit and took a bite and said, "In three days, the wounded have almost been treated. A few days ago, we killed the bull-headed giant beast, we got a small part of the essence, even so, the green essence is very huge for us, yesterday we organized a hunting activity with Zhao Changping, and now our strength has been improved to the late stage of the first order. ”
Xiao Yu quickly ate the fist-sized fruit.
Jiang Xiaowen glanced at the gravel scattered all over the surroundings and said, "Have you been practicing?" Really diligent, how are you mastering? ”
Xiao Yu threw a fruit into the sky vigorously, staring at it in the void, the fruit was held in his hand in a blink of an eye, and he frowned and said: "There is no problem with accuracy, but unfortunately the size of the vortex is too difficult to control, and every time it is cast, it is a fixed size, and sometimes it is a waste of mental power." ”
Jiang Xiaowen smiled, and suddenly there were two subtle cries in her arms, Jiang Xiaowen was stunned for a moment, reached out and pulled it into her clothes, and the little phantom demon's chubby body was taken out. It seemed to have just woken up, lazily lying in Jiang Xiaowen's arms, yawning, and its movements were very humane.
Han Kexin smiled bitterly: "This phantom demon doesn't seem to grow up, and at present, it can only make some simple phantoms, and it can't be used for battle at all." ”
Jiang Xiaowen stroked Chirp's skin with pity on her face, and said with a smile: "It's okay to grow slowly, Chirp is pretty cute now!" ”
Xiao Yu saw the phantom demon, but he was thinking in his heart, after entering the chaotic continent, he must let the phantom demon grow as soon as possible. It is an extremely rare monster that specializes in illusions and psychic attacks, which is of great help to the group.
There was a sound of footsteps coming from the cave behind him, and Jin Shi came out of it, shouting with excitement on his face: "Boss, it's successful, I've learned to run into a savage collision!" Teacher Han, Jiang Xiaowen, are you also there? ”
Han Kexin: "Congratulations. “
Xiao Yu threw a fruit to him, Jin Shi took the fruit in three or two bites and ate it, and then said: "I have completely absorbed the inheritance seed, and I have also absorbed most of the power of the origin, and the degree of absorption is about more than sixty percent. ”
Xiao Yu nodded, "It's already good, I'll take a look if you perform it once." ”
Jin Shi nodded, first lithified his whole body, and then aimed in one direction, and a trace of blood-red aura quickly rose from his body, enveloping his burly body. Jin Shi let out a loud shout, and suddenly rushed up at several times the usual speed, like a red meteor, crashing headlong into the rock wall. With a loud bang, a human-shaped hole appeared in the rock, and a moment later, the gray-haired golden stone came out of the hole.
Xiao Yu commented: "It's not bad, this skill can only go straight, although it lacks flexibility, but the power is not bad." After all, you haven't absorbed all the power of the Origin, and your own strength is only a first-order strength, so it is impossible to reach the level of a bull-headed behemoth, but with the current impact power, it should be more than enough to deal with a warrior of the same level. ”
Jiang Xiaowen said with some envy: "Now even the big bald head has powerful combat skills!" ”
Jin Shi glanced at her, "You can be content, you have a half-hatred, and an eye demon, you are good at long-range attacks and near-range skills, and your talent is so powerful, what is not satisfied!" ”
Jiang Xiaowen stuck out her tongue and said, "Since the big bald head is out of the customs, why don't you go back." ”
Xiao Yu didn't have the idea of continuing to stay, and immediately followed Jiang Xiaowen and Han Kexin back, the place where everyone gathered was only ten minutes away, after the last battle, more than thirty people were sacrificed, and a lot of loot and soul gems were obtained by hunting a large number of monsters, and the market was lively again, and many people took out the newly harvested loot to exchange practical things with people.
After Xiao Yu came back, he rested for a whole night and recovered his mental strength. He decided to attack the castle directly.
Because the surrounding forests will continue to replenish the monsters in, the monsters here will never be killed, and the casualties will increase over time, and there will be teams coming out one after another, the more forces there are, the more troublesome the benefits will be distributed after the castle is laid, and the only correct way is to capture the castle as soon as possible.
Outside the snow-white magic castle, there are not many wandering monsters left.
Xiao Yu led Zhao Changping and Han Kexin to sneak in and kill all the monsters on the periphery with lightning speed, and then everyone rushed up and quickly surrounded the castle.
Wang Chao lifted the mace and couldn't wait to shout: "Let's hurry up and kill it!" ”
"Be careful!"
A powerful arrow suddenly shot out from the castle, Jin Shi pushed Wang Chao away, erected a giant wooden shield to block the attack, and the powerful arrow even knocked him back several steps.
"There's something on the walls!"
Xiao Yu looked up and saw that a group of gnolls appeared on the walls of the magic castle at some point, drawing their bows and arrows and were about to attack everyone, among them was a gnoll leader wearing armor, he was only a monster at the peak of the first order.
Void Gaze!
The gnoll leader picked up his crossbow and was about to shoot an arrow, when an invisible force quickly enveloped the surroundings, and it screamed in panic, but once the spatial vortex was formed, it was difficult to get rid of. The gnoll was instantly swept into the whirlpool and fell heavily at Xiao Yu's feet.
"Kill!"
The others rushed up to kill the gnoll leader. The first-order monster can no longer strengthen Xiao Yu at all, but it is still very useful for others. After killing the gnolls, the crowd walked through the main entrance of the castle.
There seems to be a strange force inside the castle that isolates the sounds of the outside world, and the sound of the wind whirring outside can no longer be heard, as well as the roars of various monsters, this place seems to be extremely peaceful, and after entering the castle, it seems to have entered another world.
Hundreds of people dressed in armor and armor swarmed through the open gate with weapons in their hands, and the sound of weapons clashing and armor rubbing together resounded.
Xiao Yu rushed to the front with a war knife, and suddenly waved his hand and shouted: "Stop!" ”
Everyone immediately stopped their footwork, only to hear a heavy footstep in front, there seemed to be a monster coming next to the city wall, and sure enough, not long after, a group of minotaur defense guards appeared in front of everyone, these minotaurs are more than three meters tall, wearing thick armor, wearing steel helmets, holding steel axes in their right hands and steel shields in their left hands. The Minotaur Defender is a mid-first order monster with very strong strength.
The moment the crowd poured into the main entrance of the castle, the Minotaur guards spotted the intruder. They reacted immediately, and dozens of solid steel shields were spliced together into a wall, pressing straight towards it, like a pitch-black mountain, giving people a huge sense of oppression.
Yun Yun didn't hesitate to shoot an explosive arrow, and the other Hawks team members also shot powerful arrows, but after a burst of explosions and a rain of arrows, the iron wall defense still existed, and it didn't even loosen at all, Yun Yun couldn't help but look shocked.
"Kill!"
Xiao Yu raised the killing blade and rushed forward, but there was a figure that was faster than him, it was Jin Shi. He was shrouded in blood-red aura, and his speed was extremely fast, like a meteor bombarding the iron wall of the copper wall, and in the crisp sound of the bang, several shields were smashed into pieces, and the powerful impact force tore a hole in the iron defense of the Minotaur defense guards.
Hundreds of people swarmed in from the narrow entrance of the city gate, the minotaur defense guards were scuffled together, the weapons collided with each other, and the shouts of killing rang out, Xiao Yu took the lead, because there were more powerful monsters to face behind, he had to save mental power, so he didn't use any skills, like an ordinary warrior, he slashed horizontally and vertically, and killed five or six minotaur defenders in the blink of an eye.
