Chapter 76 First Visit
Richard still maintained the posture of holding the knife and stabbing forward, and finally spit out the breath that had been held in his chest for a long time. Bayi Chinese Network Then the huge feeling of fatigue immediately surged, almost drowning his consciousness, and sweat gushed out like a mountain torrent, instantly soaking all his clothes. Richard almost collapsed, and if it weren't for the hilt of his knife, he probably wouldn't even be able to stand.
The two simple swords condensed all his hard work, forced out all his potential between life and death, and correspondingly exhausted almost the last drop of his body.
With a bang, the door was slammed open, and Gonder had already rushed in, and Splash had entered the room even before him, standing silently against the wall. The two of them looked at the already messy bedroom in amazement, and for a moment did not understand what was happening, they both looked at the window in unison, which was the only exit, but the window was half-open and half-hidden, the curtains had not been drawn, and it was intact, and it did not look like an enemy had fled from there, and there was no shadow of the enemy.
Quicksand rushed into the room after him, looked around, and immediately changed his face slightly. She crouched down, looked at the inconspicuous scratches on the floor, and reached out to touch them. Those few marks that resembled the claws of a beast were left by the shadow leopard. At this moment, there was still a trace of shadow power, but it was clearly captured by the quicksand.
"Shadow creatures?" quicksand asked, his voice unusually dignified.
Richard nodded, then slowly lowered his head and looked at his chest. The clothes on his chest had been torn open, revealing three long tears. Beneath the crack, a thin red line began to appear on the exposed skin, which then parted, revealing the flesh below. The incision is extremely smooth and flat, and it continues to penetrate deeper into the body until the ribs are exposed.
The next moment, blood splattered out, and Richard fell on his back.
By the time Richard woke up, it was already a day later. He lay on his back on the bed, his chest tightly bandaged, and the neat and tight bandages did not bring much oppression, showing a very professional technique, which could only be done by quicksand.
Richard moved his body slightly, and there was a tingling pain from the wound on his chest, and he had to lie back helplessly.
This is another of the shadow creatures' troublesome trait, Divine Resistance. When damaged by a shadow creature, a large amount of shadow power will be attached to the wound, which can cancel out the divine power of healing magic, and greatly reduce the effect of divine healing such as strong healing. The wounds left by high-level shadow creatures can even make the magic completely ineffective, unless there is a way to dispel the power of shadows, otherwise you can only wait for the power of shadows to dissipate naturally. At this time, only herbal medicines with very low potency and the body's natural healing function can be relied upon. As a result, many people who have been seriously injured by shadow creatures have no choice but to die, or are left disabled because they cannot be treated in time.
There was already a faint light in the room, and it was just dawn, and it was quiet outside the window, and most of the people were still asleep. Richard lay down and couldn't move anyway, and the sea remembered the thrilling battle with the shadow leopard.
Shadow creatures are disembodied, they rely on the power of shadows to move forward and backward, so there is no need to crouch and exert force before striking like normal beasts. Therefore, its crouching action is completely confusing the opponent, in fact, crouching is the beginning of the attack.
After learning the secrets of the shadow creatures in his body, Richard consulted a lot of information about the shadow creatures, and the powerful talent for intelligence engraved all this information. Therefore, as soon as he saw the shadow leopard start crouching, Richard immediately attacked, and if it was a little later, it would not have been as simple as a claw on the chest.
Also because there are no entities, normal attacks have a weak effect on shadow mobs. Fortunately, in this plane, the power of the Noland seven-string moon can still be attracted, and the damage of the moon force to the shadow creatures is also very obvious, so that Richard's heart can settle down a little. At least if you touch another shadow creature, you won't be helpless.
The Shadow Panther is only one of the lowest species of shadow creatures, and since it has appeared, it is natural that more shadow creatures will appear in the future. At that time, I am afraid the battle will not be so simple.
Lying quietly in bed, Richard began to recall every detail of his battle with the Shadow Leopard.
The battle lasted only a brief moment before it ended, but it was crystal clear to Richard. He could feel that he was being dragged forward by the powerful blue moon power, and then the moon power burst out on the blade, and the power of the elven secret sword shattering was even more enhanced, and the burst of moon power completely shattered the shadow power condensed by the shadow leopard.
However, in the moments before it was blown apart, the shadow leopard's claws also swung across Richard's chest. The shadow blade that popped out of the claw burst into Richard's body without any suffocation, and it was a strange cold sensation that swam through the body, slicing flesh away. If you go a little deeper, you can cut the ribs and cut the heart. With the shadow creature's magical resistance characteristics, once the heart is ruptured, it is an irreparable injury, at least for the time being, the ninth-level quicksand has not been able to save it.
Once again so close to death made Richard's soul tremble. Richard was not afraid of taking risks, but he was also afraid of death. Death is the end of a qiē, he knows how many people's expectations he is tied to, and he also knows his future space and prospects, once he dies, all the qiē will eventually become shadows. Moreover, in the depths of the endless plane, there are still too many unknowns waiting for him to explore, and there are too many wonderful things in mortal life that he has not had time to experience and enjoy. The more important the person, the more reluctant he is to die, not only because of fear, but also because of responsibility, concern, and many unfulfilled wishes.
So Richard repeatedly savored the shiver of passing with death, and kept reinforcing it. He hoped that when he faced death again in the future, he would be able to overcome the trembling and take it calmly. The more calmly you are able to deal with death, the better your chances of survival. However, Richard knew that a truly wise man should try to avoid falling into a Jedi where he would die. Although Richard is not afraid of taking risks, the risks that he is not sure of, especially those who rush forward knowing that the opportunity is not great, are not brave, but stupid.
It was two days of total unrest.
Richard withstood the onslaught of the souls of the ancestors of the Bloodstone Tribe, saw the breakthrough of the splash and her popularity of merging with the darkness and the wilderness, but fought to the death with the shadow creatures, and killed the first shadow creature from another dimension with the explosion of bloodline talent with all his might, and brushed the Grim Reaper again.
