Chapter 167 The Rude Earth Element
In the dimly lit huge tunnel, countless round stone men moved forward quickly, trampling many of the luminous plants on the ground to pieces.
The earth element is an elemental creature with a relatively gentle personality.
They don't deliberately destroy anything.
But they never care about what they step on or whether they cause damage to the environment.
After all, it is a silicon-based life without blood. How can it know how to protect nature?
Fortunately, the tunnel is only a small part of the huge structure of the magic network.
Soon these stone men will enter the nodes of the magic network, and they will no longer have to trample flowers and plants to death.
Looking at the messy tunnel, Herard shook his head speechlessly.
But roads are for people to walk on.
These luminous plants grow on the road, and there is nothing you can do about them being stepped on.
The rules of nature are so cruel, there is no such thing as mercy!
If Hua Hua Cao Cao is strong enough, he can also catch and eat passing creatures.
If the druids heard of Herad's cruel idea of nature, they would definitely argue with him.
Mother Nature is so beautiful, how can she be described as so cruel?
We must be harmonious and friendly, and we must not use force until the last possible moment.
Although there are some differences between the two parties' philosophies, Herard still cares about nature.
When he walks past the plants that have been trampled by stone men, he will summon light green rainwater to water the plants.
That kind of light green rain is a primary spell that combines the natural and water systems.
All plants that are hit by the light green rain will enter a wild growth mode, and the previous damage will quickly recover and become more lush.
Repairing the flowers and plants that were trampled by the stone man along the way, Herard soon arrived at the magic network node.
The node of the magic network is a huge circular courtyard.
In the central area of the courtyard, a large luminous tree is planted.
Its area is much larger than the stadium, and football matches can be held in it.
The night elf mages in ancient times didn't know how to economize at all in terms of construction!
The Well of Eternity gives them inexhaustible magical energy.
Naturally, you can build any building you want.
Even the high elves who own the Sunwell are still younger brothers to the ancient night elves.
Herard looked up at the dome of the courtyard that was submerged in darkness, and shot a fireball upward to detect the height.
When orange flames exploded in the dome, he concluded that it was about three hundred and fifty meters.
Apparently the dome of this courtyard was once on the ground.
But now it has become a hilltop in the hills.
When the fireball dispersed the darkness, Herard saw that there was also a circular corridor in the upper half of the courtyard.
It can be seen that this huge magic network building is still a three-dimensional structure with upper and lower floors.
The ground floor area should have a spiral staircase leading above.
But those stone figures who ran into the courtyard did not go up the spiral staircase.
At this moment they have entered the tunnel opposite the courtyard.
The earth element's thinking is relatively rigid and follows Herad's instructions exactly.
If you let them explore forward, they will only explore forward, and it will be impossible for them to run to the upper level.
Herad did not call them back, but once again arranged the elemental creature summoning circle.
Dozens of stone men ran out with a rumble, quickly found the entrance to the spiral staircase, and ran down the stairs to the second floor.
Looking at the stone men, Herard felt a little regretful.
Just when he was lamenting his bad luck, a behemoth nearly ten meters tall condensed into shape.
In terms of appearance, the behemoth is already quite close to the human form.
It has a thick body and complete limbs.
The head with abstract features is shrunk, almost level with the towering shoulders.
The appearance is similar to the mountain giant from the night elves.
It's just that the rocks on his body are very dark in color, almost black, and are inlaid with many purple crystals.
Judging from its height, this is a stone giant that has reached the leadership level.
The stone giant's fighting power is terrifying!
In theory, steam tanks can fight it.
However, if a steam tank were to make an enemy of it, it would eat up the cannon fire and rush forward, then kick it to pieces.
The reason why the artillery power is so useless is because the dwarves did not equip the steam tanks with armor-breaking shells.
The steam tank was originally designed to deal with the frostmane trolls of Dun Morogh. High-explosive shells and shotgun shells that cause large-area damage are very suitable for dealing with them.
As for armor-breaking bullets, there are simply no enemies worth using them.
If the dwarf army is not prepared accordingly, if they encounter such a stone giant, they will definitely end up very unhappy!
Mekkatorque's five-meter-tall mecha might be able to fight.
But it is very likely that it will be hammered into scrap metal by the stone giant.
Of course, there will not be an enemy as powerful as the Stone Giant on the battlefield at this stage.
After all, the orc shamans had already been turned into warlocks by Gul'dan.
Herard sat on the shoulders of the stone giant and directed it to move towards the tunnel ahead.
This big guy looks slow, but in fact he is not walking very slowly.
It takes one step, and it takes several steps for ordinary people to catch up.
Sitting on the shoulders of the stone giant, Herard checked the purple crystals inlaid on the stone giant's body and found that they were indeed magic crystals.
There are many magic crystals embedded in the stone giant.
Even a rough estimate would put it at least two hundred kilograms.
Having picked up so many magic crystals for nothing, Herard was naturally in a good mood.
Magic crystal can be melted at high temperatures and easily cast into the desired shape.
If such a rich stone giant could be summoned frequently, who would bother to capture the withered spellcasters who like to run around and burrow into underground magic nets?
Herard was daydreaming about summoning the local tyrant stone giant to make a fortune. When he began to feel that the withered magicians liked running around too much, the stone man exploring ahead encountered a situation.
The stone man passed through the long tunnel and when he arrived at another courtyard, he found many humanoid creatures wandering there.
The humanoid creatures that can appear in this ghost place, and there are a lot of them, are basically withered.
Therefore, the stone men opened their hands and greeted the withered ones with great enthusiasm, preparing to give them a hug.
The withered man who was wandering in the courtyard showed no interest in the approaching stone man.
Elemental creatures are powered by elemental energy and do not have the arcane energy they need.
If the intruders were arcane puppets, they would drain the arcane energy in minutes and turn them into a pile of useless granite stones.
Seeing the stone men rushing towards them, the Withered Lawmen moved aside in disgust and did not get close to these useless guys.
The Withered Man's movements are very agile, and although the Stone Man's movements are not slow, it is impossible to compete with them in this aspect.
But the stone man has special means to solve the problem.
When they got close to the Withered Man, they cast spells to make the ground beneath their feet shake.
The withered man lost his balance and fell to the ground, and was held down by the stone man, unable to move.
Once they are caught by the stone men, it is no different than being caught by the blue dragon warriors.
After the stone man grabs the withered man with his big hand, the power of the earth will lock his palm and fingers, forming a very solid rock shackles from which the enemy has no possibility of breaking free.
Seeing the stone man grabbing the withered man by the back of his neck and carrying him like a kitten, Herad was speechless at their rough behavior.
But Herad still opened the temporary portal and asked the stone man to send the withered man inside.
The clumsy stone man rudely threw the withered man into the temporary portal.
Looking at the casual posture, it's like throwing away a piece of garbage.
When the withered ones teleport over, the kinetic energy exerted on them by the stone men will be offset when they leave the light screen.
But the teleported posture will not change.
It's inevitable to fall on your butt!
Fortunately, the bones of those withered spells are very hard and they don't care about this level of torture.
Moreover, Herad stopped the stone men's rude behavior and made their movements more civilized, instead pushing the withered ones in.
The scene of withered beings being continuously sent over and then pushed into the temporary portal made Herad feel very good.
He experienced the joyful feeling of a warlord catching a young man.
Who doesn't like free studs?
Of course, he and the warlord are of two different natures.
The warlords captured young men and sent them to the battlefield to consume the enemy's large-caliber artillery shells or thermobaric bombs.
He captures the strong men, just to let them fight with ease.
The act of grabbing a strong man to fill the muzzle of a cannon is not something that humans can do!
