Chapter 102 The mysterious statue moved
as Richard performed the spirit summoning technique.
I saw transparent spiritual bodies being summoned from the scattered corpses around them.
Looking at the many delicious foods, the Soul-Eating Demon Spider Egg became excited instantly. The first thing he aimed at was the tall steel-forked fishman spirit body. It seemed that Richard could have a salivating image of the Soul-Eating Demon Spider in his mind. feel.
As an invisible ripple spreads from the Soul-Eating Demon Spider egg to the surroundings, a majestic suction force comes from its body.
The spirit bodies of ordinary fishmen fell from the air one after another like dumplings, and were all sucked into the white eggs.
Among them, the tall steel-speared fishman spirit struggled the most violently, so it was still barely able to hold on and not be sucked in. Then, even Jenna's spirit body also tried its best to resist, with a look of horror on its lifelike little face!
But as the suction force from the Soul-Eating Demon Spider's egg became stronger and stronger, the spirit bodies of the three double-sword fishmen could not resist at first, and were swallowed up one after another.
Then came the spirits of the short girl Brandi and the tall and lanky boy Mijat.
Finally, as Jenna, the special double-sword fishman and the tall steel-speared fishman were devoured, the Soul-Eating Demon Spider egg conveyed the idea of sleeping and evolving.
Richard was immediately overjoyed. As expected, the Soul-Eating Demon Spider eggs no longer needed to be fed after they were full and fell asleep. Instead, they could break out of their shells at any time.
It could be days, it could be hours, but never long.
Speaking of the Soul-Eating Spider, Richard had already searched for the relevant content of the blood contract in the library.
Currently, according to the book, before the contract partner is officially hatched, preliminary communication can be carried out at the frequency of one drop of blood every month.
Now, Richard has initially reached a certain degree of intimacy with the Soul-Eating Demonic Spider. He only needs to wait until the Soul-Eating Demonic Spider is officially hatched and Richard immediately signs a blood oath contract.
Of course, the blood oath contract is not the most advanced contract.
The most advanced contract is the life contract. The content is roughly that if one of the two parties to the contract dies, the other party will also die directly. If there is any secret technique, at least the life span will be greatly damaged, so for this kind of contract, wizards use it very much. few.
Because after being promoted to an official wizard, even a first-level wizard will have a lifespan of two to three hundred years. However, if your contracted creature is accidentally killed by the enemy in a battle, your lifespan will be greatly reduced or The situation of direct death is completely unacceptable to official wizards.
Therefore, the second-level blood oath contract has become the most commonly used contract. It is nothing more than feeding some blood essence to one's contracted creatures every once in a while, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the contracted creatures.
After putting away the soul-eating demon spider eggs, Richard and the other three left this place of right and wrong. Based on the feedback from Ophelia's plant perception, they continued to travel for several miles along the shallows of the underground river. There was a fork in the road. The one that extends directly upwards should probably go straight to the surface. This is nearly twice as fast as their plan to return the same way.
Immediately, the three of them decided to take the fastest route back to the school's headquarters. Considering that Andrea had almost lost his combat effectiveness, Richard no longer concealed his strength this time. At the same time, he summoned two sword and shield skeletons to protect him one after another.
Although the harvest this time was very small, the biggest gain was knowledge, such as Jenna's previous experimental manuscripts, ancient parchment scrolls - the zombie transformation ritual, and the rare zero-level witchcraft undead vision scroll.
In the world of wizards, advanced knowledge is equivalent to magic stones at any time. Sometimes, advanced knowledge is even more useful than magic stones.
Therefore, when he thought of this, Richard didn't feel that he was at a loss.
Moreover, Jenna’s craftsmanship in making mutant suture monsters can be said to be exclusive knowledge.
You know, generally only after you are promoted to an official wizard can you have enough time to study or optimize the witchcraft and zero-level witchcraft you have mastered. However, it also takes a lot of time to adjust the witchcraft model. If it involves too much changes, and even the rune structure needs to be adjusted. In this case, it will be even more difficult.
But if it succeeds, it can be sold as exclusive knowledge and make a lot of money.
Since the Skeleton Warrior was severely injured during the battle with the Murloc, he would not be able to fully recover until a day of training in the world of the dead. As for the Sword and Shield Skeleton that had been marked with a tracking mark, Richard did not dare to summon it again for a while.
There were two sword and shield skeletons guarding each other, one behind the other, so the three of them had a smooth journey.
Suddenly, a huge black shadow rushed towards the sword and shield skeleton guarding the front.
"It's a basilisk!" Andrea shouted. Although his combat power was greatly damaged, the intermediate knight's vision was still there.
"No, this is an iron-jawed lizard!" Richard said calmly. As a top archer, Richard's eyesight was actually slightly stronger than Andrea's. He could clearly see the attacker's external outline and body features.
Because the basilisk does not have such a wide jaw and a black and shiny skin.
I saw the iron-jawed lizard open its huge mouth, and its sharp steel teeth instantly bit off the skeleton soldier's thigh bone, put it in its mouth and chewed it, listening to the crunching sound like ordinary people biting cartilage, the white bones Chips fell down from the sides of the iron jaw.
This scene shocked Richard greatly.
He knew how hard the bones of the sword and shield skeletons under his command were, but even so, they were still bitten by the iron jaw lizard, which showed that its bite force was strong and worthy of the name iron jaw. Thinking of what was recorded in the Sigil Crystal, the Iron Jaw Lizard possesses the physical strength of a great knight, and the Iron Jaw divides gold and breaks stone, which seems to be true.
Richard's reaction was not too quick. He immediately took out four or five tubes of Fire Dance Star from his arms and counterattacked in an instant.
In the violent explosion, Richard and others quickly retreated. Ophelia also began to quickly spawn the bloodthirsty demon vines and her plant team. Richard immediately gave himself a dark element shield and bone armor.
The bite force of the iron-jawed lizard in front of me is so amazing that even a dark element shield is not enough to see it.
A few seconds later, a black shadow actually emerged from the center of the explosion.
The three of them took a closer look and were instantly shocked!
Such a violent explosion did not cause much damage to the Iron-jawed Lizard. Although some of its skin was burned, overall the injuries were obviously minor.
"The explosion just now seriously injured even the basilisk. What kind of defense capability is this? It's so amazing!" Andrea, who was injured at the side, said in surprise.
"This is the scary thing about the iron-jawed lizard. The resistance to witchcraft is too strong. The average first- and second-level wizard apprentices will be helpless when encountering it, and they are completely unable to break its surface defense." Ophelia's expression Said solemnly.
Compared with the basilisk, the iron-jawed lizard in front of them has no talent for witchcraft, but the super witchcraft resistance on its surface gives Richard and the others a big headache.
"However, as long as it can cause harm, it is dead!" After saying that, Richard took out a handful of Fire Dance Stars from his arms, mixed them with more than ten bags of silver moon dust, and pointed them towards the rushing iron The palatine lizard threw it directly.
Richard might not have many other things, but he did have a lot of alchemy bombs.
The iron-jawed lizard, who had just suffered a lot, was stunned when he saw more than ten red test tubes flying towards him.
As the first sound of shattering glass was heard, a series of explosions sounded like firecrackers, crackling in the shallows.
The ultra-high-frequency continuous explosions of the alchemy bombs were too much for the iron-jawed lizard, a monster with extremely high witchcraft resistance. It made me dizzy and make stars appear in my eyes.
Suddenly, it felt a sharp pain in its neck. When it opened its eyes, it saw a sword and shield skeleton entering an iron sword from its lower jaw, directly piercing its neck, and scratching it hard. In an instant, Dark red blood sputtered in all directions like a burst water pipe.
Immediately, the Iron-jawed Lizard felt its strength draining away, and used all its strength to turn its head and bite the sword-and-shield skeleton in half.
However, due to being too seriously injured, his movements became sluggish, or perhaps because the opponent moved too quickly, so the Sword and Shield Skeleton immediately dodged.
Before the iron-jawed lizard could turn around and run away, the sword-and-shield skeleton rushed up again in the next second and stabbed the iron sword directly into its eye socket.
This time, it can no longer fight back!
Iron-jawed lizard, die!
[Energy found to be absorbed, yes/no? ]
"Yes!"
[Acquire 5914 points of energy. 】
Richard looked overjoyed, "Yes, it's been a long time since I had any energy points in my account. This iron-jawed lizard came at just the right time. With this amount of energy points in my account, he was interested in the zero-level witchcraft, undead vision and behavior." You can quickly learn and improve through the Corpse Transformation Ceremony.
After collecting the raw materials from the Iron-jawed Lizard, Richard and the others continued to move forward, but just as they were about to reach the fork in front.
Richard felt something was faintly heating up in his arms. He stretched out his hand to touch it and found that it was the three-headed snake statue that he had obtained from the tall steel-speared fishman warrior before. It was as big as a palm and looked like a living thing.
This surprised Richard. After careful observation, he discovered that a fork in the road ahead was heading deeper into the underground river. The further he moved in this direction, the more intense the heating became.
But if Richard chooses to move toward the surface, the heating situation will become quieter and quieter.
This made Richard couldn't help but think about it. Could it be that the large group of fishmen just marched in this direction not for no reason, but also because of the guidance of this statue?
This made Richard a little hesitant. He couldn't decide whether to go deeper into the underground river to explore or return directly to the surface.
In a shoal of the underground river, criss-crossing battle traces indicate that this is where Richard and the North Ring Jenna fought.
About an hour after Richard and the others left, a young man wearing a gray robe with three plague bug symbols on his chest arrived here after a long journey.
This was because of the underground rivers and the network of rivers extending in all directions. Although he had clear location information in his mind, it still took him a lot of effort to get there. If it were placed on a flat surface, he would be an hour early. Arrived before.
