The sun is high - #182 - Chapter 181 Backhand
As early as when Shuge saw the flame magic released by Herbert, he had already found a way out for himself.
The release of the cold pool magic and the shooting using the hound’s teeth were all actions taken by Shuge to cover his retreat.
As someone who has had in-depth exchanges with the steward and chief mage of the Walter royal family, Shuge knows very well that the power of spellcasters has little to do with their titles and official ratings, especially when crossing the lake level and the river valley level. Beyond this line, specific judgments about a spellcaster’s prowess become blurry.
What’s more, at a time when the functions and authority of the Legal Committee have been seriously damaged and impacted.
According to Steward Finn, only in the bloodiest battles that can directly determine life and death can a spellcaster’s true strength be exposed.
Under this premise, Shuge was extremely wary of opponents like Herbert and Kezlov from the very beginning. After seeing the opponent successfully break away from the magic shock with his own eyes, he successfully and quickly After the ground cast a river valley-level destructive magic, Shuge immediately made the decision to retreat.
Under the cover of dim light and misty fog, Shuge used the hound’s fangs to shoot a bullet at Herbert, and then decisively summoned the running rats, just like he had done in the dream of rats. In that way, he directly rode on his magical summon, and with its power and speed, he forced open the door of the banquet hall and ran towards the outside world.
Under the restraint of the will of General Bernhardt and other families, most of the magic rats were successfully withdrawn, and the mirror messenger substitutes and hounds from the Dark Abyss Palace took on the task of rearguard, and just as Xiu Xiu As Ge thought, they were “sent” back to his spiritual world by Kezlov using magic.
It’s just that at this moment, Xiuge doesn’t have much time to care about them, because as he leaves the banquet hall, more complex, rich and detailed messages are being continuously transmitted from the black sun scepter in his hand. .
Xiuge knew that a large number of Black Sun Society members were approaching the banquet hall, and among these people, there were also many spellcasters.
Under the astonishing speed of the running rat, the long corridor connected to the banquet hall was almost completed in the blink of an eye, and several ordinary people who happened to appear at the exit of the long corridor were holding crystal blunderbuss and preparing to approach the banquet hall. The members of the association were knocked away by the running rat on the spot, and one of them reacted quickly and flew to the side.
But the body of this “lucky guy” had just landed when the three long tails behind the running rat suddenly swung. As a result, the member’s body was pierced and picked up by the sharp and tough long tails on the spot. With the tail swinging hard, he was thrown out casually with a scream, and hit the knight sculpture next to the corridor hard.
“left!”
Relying on the magic perception and the information given by the Black Sun Scepter, Xiuge quickly made a judgment and issued instructions to the running rat.
At the same time, Xiuge leaned forward and grabbed the hard horn on Snitch’s head. The mage’s hand appeared beside him and he quickly rummaged through the magic book.
As the pages of the book were torn off, several layers of protective rituals enveloped the bodies of Shuge and the Running Rat. Almost in the next moment, the crystal bullets shot from a distance had arrived, and the outermost magic barrier immediately hit the crystal bullets. There were cracks in the explosion, but before the second round of shooting started, Snicki had already followed Shuge’s instructions and rushed towards the left side of the courtyard.
According to Xiuge’s previous memory, the number of golems and guards here is smaller than that on the other side.
The Touch of Charron reappeared next to Shuge. The sharp and deadly arthropods became the sharp blades and spears that accompanied the charge of the “knight.” Swinging these weapons did not require Shuge to expend too much effort at all. They moved at an astonishing speed. and efficiency are constantly dancing around, as crazy as a black thread moving at high speed in the air.
The human body, the golem, even the murals on the walls and the sculptures on the roadside were all punctured and slashed indiscriminately at this moment.
Soon, Shuge was approaching the gate of Black Forest Castle.
After receiving the news, the guards of the Black Sun Society had already closed the metal gate of the fortress. Twenty or so ugly metal golems holding magic silver giant swords were waiting in front of the gate. The Black Sun Society had set up a ceremony venue near the fortress. , has now begun to operate, and Xiuge can even feel the continuous suppression of his own magic power by this huge ritual.
Yet he didn’t let the Running Rat slow down.
Snitch also did not show any fear. It let out a harsh hiss again, and the ground in the nearby castle grounds immediately began to tremble. The ordinary rats that had been forcibly awakened by it and came to the Black Forest Castle began to rise. The soil and grass were broken open by the call of the Mother Earth. Under the influence of the power of the Mother Earth, these rats became more ferocious and hungry than ever before. They unscrupulously rushed towards any possible target within the field of vision, and used their sharp edges to His claws tore at their flesh.
At the same time, Snitch himself is also undergoing amazing changes. His originally fluffy and soft hair is now beginning to become tougher, and the horns on the top of his head are also beginning to grow under the stimulation of strength. The pupils in his eyes are The scarlet color spread out from the corners of its eyes, scurrying under the hair like a long snake, sending violent power to the whole body.
Seeing that this guy had no idea of slowing down when facing the array of metal golems, Xiuge quickly manipulated the hands of the mage to tear out a page from the magic book. With the infusion of a large amount of magic power, a stream-level “large “Armor Protection” takes effect instantly, adding an extra touch of metallic color to the running rat’s huge body.
“Boom!”
This was the astonishing sound made when Snitch collided with the metal golem at the front.
At this moment, even Xiuge, who was riding on Snitch’s back and constantly setting up protective magic, felt his scalp numb.
Judging from the intensity of the impact, even if he was riding a steam vehicle, it would most likely be completely destroyed by it. However, the running rat did not suffer any obvious damage from this. Instead, the golem blocking the road was hit by this The unreasonable impact was knocked away on the spot, and it fell straight on among its own kind, creating a gap in the originally neat queue of metal golems.
“You are too courageous!”
Shouge yelled angrily, then he freed his right hand, held the Hound’s Fang again, and continuously pulled the trigger at the gap in the array in front and the gate of Black Forest Castle behind.
The remaining three wolf fang bullets were fired one after another.
Although the palace hound had suffered heavy losses at this time and could no longer appear as a summon to bite the enemy on behalf of Shuge, the power and effectiveness of the hound’s teeth itself still existed, so the first bullet successfully tore two bodies into pieces. The metal golem and the inner door blocked the road. The second bullet created a gap in the extremely strong outer metal door with magic patterns attached. As for the third bullet, it bit into the shrouded door fiercely. At the ceremony venue of Black Forest Castle.
A road to the outside world was thus opened.
The Hound’s Fang also dissipated in Shuge’s palm because all its power and bullets were exhausted.
“Walk!”
At the command, the Running Rat accelerated again. With the cover of magic rituals and Charron’s Touch, it successfully broke through the defense line formed by these heavy metal golems. After paying the price of several tragic scars, one person and one person died. The rat successfully left the closed Black Forest Castle and came to the hills outside.
However, Xiuge did not relax.
The metal disc is still spinning, which means that an extremely dangerous enemy is chasing him. According to the message fed back by the Black Sun Scepter, the people chasing him are most likely those from the banquet hall. The elite spellcaster of the association who recovered from the attack.
Facing these elite mages who have abundant means and resources and have broken free from constraints and restrictions, Xiuge does not have the confidence to confront them head-on.
“Go! Go! Toward the forest!”
Shuge raised his hand and patted Sniqi’s back gently twice. He originally wanted to apply healing magic to this big rat, but in just ten seconds, it had already relied on the earth to heal it. The powerful vitality bestowed by the Mother Goddess repaired the bleeding wounds on his body, and it seemed that even brand new hair would grow out after a while.
There was a deafening roar in the distance, and the molten dragons brought by the Black Sun Society were approaching in their direction. These big guys had obviously received instructions from the beast tamers and were preparing to intercept them. .
However, they are too bulky. Facing the running rats, which are known for their speed and flexibility, their advantages in strength and size cannot be brought into play at all.
The blazing magical breath swept along the ground, but these spreading flames could not damage the running rat at all. It easily carried Shuge through the gaps of these deadly blazing fires, and it even passed directly from the molten ground. The lower part of the dragon’s body passed through and made a series of provocative squeaks.
Fortunately, Snitch strictly abided by Shuge’s orders. He did not stop. After successfully using his speed to play with these three bulky molten earth dragons, he headed directly towards the distant black forest. Run in the direction.
This is the best route Xiuge can choose at present.
The terrain in the forest area is complex enough, and he can better deal with it with his summons and magic abilities. Moreover, escaping in this direction can also keep the members of the Black Sun Society away from the positions of the Fifth Chasseur Regiment and try their best to avoid them. Reduce their impact on the next battle.
This is already the best solution Xiuge can make under the current circumstances.
As for whether we can achieve greater benefits in the next actions, it depends on the specific situation.
It was only then that Shuge finally got the chance to look at the metal disc. At a glance, he saw the palace hound that had become weak because of the “death” it had just experienced. It withstood the magical attack from Kezlov. It was then burned by Herbert’s magical flames, so now its size has been severely “shrunk”, and the pupils on both sides of its head have also become dim.
In another room, the Mirror Messenger, who had also been wiped out by Kezlov with River Valley-level magic, was slumped behind the desk. Although it did not seem to have suffered much damage, it seemed as if it had suffered The mental damage is the same, and there is some depression.
Overall, this price is completely acceptable.
“Unfortunately, there is no way to continue using the Hound’s Fang in a short period of time… We can only rely on this magic book for powerful killing methods.”
Xiuge reached out and took the thick book from Wei Lin from the mage’s hand. He suddenly remembered that Wei Lin seemed to have confessed something when she handed the book to him, so he opened it. The book turned to the last page.
A somewhat special magic book page caught his eye.
Under the darkness of night, the pattern on this page shone with a strange silver light, and the magic patterns in it were not the ones Xiuge had learned before. The style of brushstrokes was on the contrary the same as the crazy one in “Poetry of the Night”. The poet Aziv’s words are somewhat similar.
These seemingly chaotic but extremely regular strange magic patterns formed a pattern on the page that shocked Xiuge.
That’s the ring.
A “five-layered ring” that Xiuge is all too familiar with.
The structure is basically the same as that of the metal disc that inscribed magic on him, except that the grooves in it are replaced by Weilin with special magic patterns. There are also fine lines connecting them, which is amazing to see. People are dazzled.
This page is obviously still a semi-finished product, because there are too many subtle magic patterns that need to be engraved and filled in the outermost ring. Weilin obviously does not have that much time to fill them completely, but this special magic that is imprinted is obviously It has also been able to take effect, because Xiuge can now clearly feel the close connection between these magic patterns. As long as he injects magic power, he can make them effective immediately!
At the bottom of the page are the tips and words that Wei Lin left when she was imprinting these magic patterns.
“Using the Poem of Dark Night as the basis for changing the pattern of the magic pattern…Using the description of Volume 1, Chapter 3 of the Poem of Dark Night as the basis for engraving…”
“The name of the magic should be ‘Disordered Tracing’, which is a type of teleportation magic that is forbidden to be researched and used by Merlin Lehe… It may be possible to use the caster’s memory fragments as anchors to carry out disorderly teleportation… It is extremely unstable.”
“According to the description in the Poem of Dark Night, Azifu once used this magic to successfully escape from the pursuit of a monster called ‘Hound’.”
The moment he read these words, Xiuge couldn’t help but be amazed by his teacher’s academic spirit and ability.
She surprised herself again.
