The sun is high - #116 - Chapter 115 The “Betrayal” Rat Pack
It wasn’t just the priests who suffered.
The tiny mice that had originally been summoned by the ritual to emerge from countless corners were now in a state of frenzy. Xiuge saw that they began to attack everywhere desperately, even at the cost of pounce on their close relatives.
The black rat tide that was constantly attacking the sea monsters ended, and it was not just this battlefield that had changed. All the surrounding battlefields seemed to have suffered similar effects invisibly.
After losing the leadership and restraint of the gods’ will, those naturally timid but extremely bloodthirsty rats naturally exposed their true nature.
Xiuge stared at everything that happened in front of him with his mouth open. He did not expect that in just a moment, these fronts would shift so exaggeratedly. And as the power and will of the Mother Goddess of the Earth weakened, the sea in the distance once again There were huge waves that could hit the entire mountain. They were so spectacular that they almost merged with the sky where the black celestial bodies hung. Xiuge also saw that there were countless towering shadows in this huge wall of waves. Constantly shaking…
It all seems to be Charron’s touch.
It’s nothing more than Charron’s Touch, which is similar in size and shape to the size of a mountain.
However, the changes and impact brought by that figure are not over yet. As more complex lines appear in the air, a very cold but extremely firm force sweeps along the ground. Under its influence, Xiuge felt that he was giving up all vigilance and vigilance. The image of the Mother Earth that should have been engraved in his mind began to become blurred, and was replaced by a very unfamiliar will.
This power is deeply reflected in the minds of all the creatures on the beach. Now that all the priests have been killed, the remaining rat tide on the beach and the warriors who are still fighting are simply unable to compete with this power. confrontation.
Under some kind of force that is still beyond comprehension, the beliefs of the dependents are being violently rewritten.
“…”
Xiuge felt all this quietly. Although this was just a dream, to a certain extent, it was actually a manifestation of past power and scenes. Therefore, the cold force directly acted on Xiuge’s spirit. In the world, but before they could take effect, the rotating metal disc forcibly resolved this sudden interference.
“?”
A look came to him.
As if it noticed something strange, the figure turned its head and looked at where Xiuge was.
At this moment, this gaze actually spanned a long time and space and came to Xiuge.
However, in the next moment, those rats whose instincts and thinking have been completely rewritten have surged forward. They have now completely become rat traitors and become tools and weapons of the enemy.
As a result, Shuge, the three-tailed giant rat, and the other injured and dead lying on the battlefield were completely swallowed up in an instant. The remaining corpses of the sea beasts were naturally included in their devoured list. For a time, the huge The battlefield was dyed a deep black, just like the reflection cast by the black celestial body in the sky.
The black rat tide was like an endless huge black brush. When they swept across the battlefield, everything was completely swept away.
The rats that devoured countless corpses began their own evolution.
They absorbed the power from the sea beasts, so their bodies began to condense and became smaller. The originally powerful hind legs completely collapsed and turned into tendrils like the tentacles of the soft-bodied creatures in the sea.
They devoured many bodies of the same kind, and naturally also absorbed the power that originally came from the Mother Goddess of the Earth. With the return and replenishment of the original power, they finally gradually got rid of the control of external forces.
However, to the gods and all the creatures gathered under the power of the gods, their previous actions were tantamount to betrayal.
And so the punishment began, without any emotion or leeway.
Facing the approaching waves, these mice were ruthlessly deprived of their vision, and their eyes quickly shrank and disappeared, making it impossible for them to choose the right direction to escape.
Facing the harsh environment of the battlefield, their bodies begin to shrink and their sharp claws become extremely short, which will prevent them from concentrating on digging caves to hide.
Facing various potential enemies, their intelligence and instincts are quickly dismantled and scattered. This will make them unable to separate from their companions and groups. As an individual, they will never be able to act and think correctly.
The “human” figure standing on the back of the giant turtle quietly cast a confused look at somewhere in the rat tide, but she did not waste too much time after all, because the giant wave had arrived.
So the seawater continued to spread to the land, and more sea beasts began to move forward.
This war that was inadvertently recorded cannot be measured on the time scale used by humans.
It will continue.
…………
In the dark underground corridor, the confrontation between rat tide and rat tide, waiter and waiter is constantly going on.
Wei Lin found that she had underestimated the impact of the “Mother of the Earth” secret ritual after all.
For the Secret Ritual as a whole, these five isolated underground floors are simply like a depression in a heavy rainstorm. All the rainwater hopes to flow here. This is the most common phenomenon. After all, in the Legal Committee Among the basic theories and principles of the society, the nature of magic power is similar to that of water bodies. In front of flowing water, dry depressions should be filled first.
The secret rat tide is pushing the front line in the corridor bit by bit deeper. There are too many of them. Those who make up these rat tides are those who have become black sun in the past years. The innocent people who were the subjects of the Society’s magic experiments include members of the Ernst family who were forcibly transformed and completely deprived of all will, and there are also people like Ludwig Ernst who were worn away in the long confrontation. The fighter with the last bit of will…
There are very few examples like Alexandra and Bernhardt who can successfully withstand the erosion and impact of the secret ritual, and finally rely on their own strength to establish a defense line on this floor.
The black shadows pouring in from the spiral staircase are the real rat tide.
Especially among these rat tides are also mixed the waiters and servants whose bodies have been severely mutated and are no longer different from the “rat men” in Shuge’s words. They seem to have become bunkers in the rolling rat tide. In order to reduce as many as possible those Due to the pressure from members of the Ernst family, Weilin had to regard these dangerous magical mutants as her primary target.
Destructive magic such as “Concussive Blade”, “Flame Bow”, and “Phosphorescent Touch” that were specifically targeted at important targets were quickly triggered one by one under Wei Lin’s control, and every time these magics successfully “processed “Without the key targets in the rat tide, the magic that had been buried in the walls, floors and even ceilings would be activated one after another.
Every time magic such as “Instant Fire”, “Ice Explosion”, “Dragon Lizard Wind Roar” takes effect, it can create a huge vacancy in the dark rat tide. Those who have been hit by magic and ” The “dead” rats will dissipate into clouds of magic mist almost immediately. However, once a tide of rats is cleared, another one will be filled in immediately. Although they will not leave any corpses when they die, under the continuous magic bombing Down, Weilin still couldn’t see the ground.
Even if it’s just for a second.
The rat tide’s front quickly advanced to the first corner of the corridor. When it was confirmed through the summoned object’s vision that all “friendly parties” had retreated behind the first safety line, the mage’s hand facilitated Weilin’s appeared next to him, and accurately triggered several intertwined and interconnected magic threads buried in the wall.
A chain reaction occurred instantly.
The first to take effect are two stream-level “fuel fountain” magics. Although it is only a stream-level magic, its specific effectiveness and difficulty of use are more prominent than other magics that can create grease. Just like its name, it is in magic. The moment it was activated, two “springs” appeared in the corridor that was already filled with rats. Immediately afterwards, a huge impact accompanied by a huge amount of black fuel spurted out from the two “springs”.
In almost just a few seconds, these pungent fuels were poured into every corner of the corridor. They were not only important fuels, but could also seriously slow down the progress and retreat of the rats. After all, these fuels are as thick as glue, and once they get on it, there is no way to get rid of them easily.
Immediately afterwards, a series of magic for protection began to take effect. Behind the pre-demarcated safety line, the gentle luster of many protective rituals began to flash alternately, and a solid magic wall was assisted by the “fortification reinforcement” magic. Rising from the ground, the menacing tide of rats immediately hit the translucent wall hard. The dark bodies of the deformed rats kept squeezing in as the tide advanced, making the scene weird and disgusting.
Fortunately, this situation can be alleviated soon.
A series of four magic pages appeared in the corridor. These “instant fire” magic that Xiuge spent most of the night imprinting formed an orderly whole under the series of magic threads. With the infusion of magic power, , these pages of magic books that were still a bit unfamiliar with the brushstrokes were ignited one after another, and the complicated magic runes continued to flicker in the brilliance of flames and magic, and finally completed a complete explosion.
Rushing to “superimpose” magic is a very, very dangerous move.
For the vast majority of spellcasters below the stream level, the act of using magic books and magic patterns to forcibly superimpose the same magic is absolutely prohibited, because for the vast majority of spellcasters, this behavior is tantamount to A severe test of the caster’s skill, experience and control over magic.
The method used by Weilin when she burned down Ernst’s old house seemed simple, but in fact it was very extreme.
Once an error occurs during the execution of this process, resulting in a fallacy in the order in which the magic takes effect, the mutual interference and influence between the magic powers will also greatly change the final result of the magic. Sometimes three simple “illuminations” When combined, the tricks can turn into blazing flames and successfully burn the eyes of passers-by.
However, Weilin has absolute confidence in the calculation of magic power.
So, with the flashing firelight, the rats that were busy attacking stopped their movements. The weak instinct hidden in their bodies made them make a choice at this moment. However, now, a large number of rats piled up in the narrow In the long corridor, the continuous eruption of fuel fountains made it difficult for them to move forward. As for the rats that were forced to the deepest part, they lost the opportunity to turn their bodies.
Of course, Weilin had no intention of giving them any chance.
The crisp sound of snapping fingers sounded in the corridor.
Dazzling bright red light burst out from the center of the high-quality magic book page one after another. The large group of firelight seemed to become a terrifying ghost wandering randomly in the darkness. Because of the protective ritual set up in advance, Weilin had no way of hearing the explosion. There was a sudden sound, but she could feel the terrible impact that the underground mansion had suffered just at that moment through the walls beside her and the ground beneath her.
Large balls of flames filled half of the corridor, and countless rats that had been doused with fuel were the first to be roasted. Their bodies were ignited and collapsed in an instant, and a large amount of magic mist spread. The protective rituals used to block the impact and the magic wall were crumbling under the terrifying impact. Among them, the ritual set up on the outermost periphery to alleviate the impact of the magic wall disappeared on the spot.
Wei Lin gently touched the brand new magic book she took from Shuge in her hand.
“His decision is indeed right… In this case, the more magic of this kind, the better.”
At this point, the first stage of the magic formation constructed by Wei Lin has been fully effective.
In fact, if necessary, Weilin can even activate all the magic arranged here in an instant – the result is something that she herself cannot predict, either a chain of impacts and explosions, or the magic… Eliminate each other’s failure, and may even trigger a small-scale magic tide.
But looking at it now, Weilin feels that she does not need to make such a risky move.
Because among the constantly moving flames, more than half of the rat tide that originally filled the entire corridor has disappeared. The flames have even spread to the spiral staircase, involving more targets that were waiting in the shadows before. Sea of fire.
The firelight gradually dimmed, and in the thick smoke and magical mist, an incredible picture gradually appeared.
Through the eyes of the summoned creature, she saw that in the long corridor filled with flames, a huge “sphere” appeared. It was a black ball of flesh made of countless mice hugging each other and connected. They were passing through this A way to resist the remaining flames…
