Chapter 51 Items and Accidents
The attack of the troll priest shocked Xu Yue. He didn't expect that the other party would use a range spell, which made the deflection position around him unable to completely deflect the spell.
However, he was not panicked about this, and immediately activated another mage on the robe, "Glorious Shield". This third-level protective spell and the "Deflective Force Field" force field spell did not conflict, and could be used together to make the protection stronger. This is also the reason why he chose this expensive robe.
As a third-level protective spell, the effect of the "Glorious Shield" is much stronger than the second-level "Glorious Shield". The black mist that almost corrodes the defense shield quickly dissipates after contacting the light of the "Glorious Shield".
"Shadow Spell?" Xu Yue guessed after seeing this situation. The spell of "Shield of Light" is a light-type protective spell. Generally speaking, it can only defend against attacks, but it cannot eliminate magic attacks. Only when facing shadow spells can the light-type protective spell eliminate the energy of the shadow spell due to attribute restraint.
The black fog was quickly melted away by the "Shield of Glory" in just a few seconds. The troll priest was obviously a little surprised by this situation, but he still waved his staff to fire a large number of "Shadow Arrows". This dense shadow spell is known for its fast and continuous strikes.
Xu Yue was not willing to be outdone and shook his hand and threw out a fireball. However, the troll priest was obviously not unprepared, and also released a protective spell flashing with a faint black light to cover himself. After the fireball priest exploded on the black light shield, it shook the light shield a few times, and the color became much dimmed, but it did not cause any damage to the troll.
At this time, the trolls under the altar also rushed up along the stone steps on the altar. Xu Yue could only let the trolls go first, and attacked the trolls on the trolls on the trolls with the "Shadow Arrow" on the trolls.
The altar was ten meters high, and there was only one stone step up. In order to chase Xu Yue, the trolls could only line up the stone steps, which was exactly in line with Xu Yue's plan. After finding the right position, he fired the last wind blade downwards.
The sharp wind blade passed through the body of the troll gate like lightning. The only two of the trolls in the whole row survived because of the exhaustion of the wind blade technique.
Xu Yue's attack was launched too fast and too cunning. Before the trolls could react, only the troll priests and two troll civilians were left on the altar. However, at this time, only the last fireball technique was left in the magic ring on Xu Yue's body, and the wind blade technique had been used up in two attacks.
Although the shadow energy of the troll sacrifice was restrained by the attributes and levels of the "Glorious Shield", under the shadow arrows he kept firing, the light of the "Glorious Shield" was also rapidly weakening. Xu Yue did not wait for death. He only wiped his hand on the robe, and a pistol suddenly appeared in his hand.
When he seized the pistol from the robbers, he found more than twenty bullets in the magazine. Last time he dealt with the Lightning Demon Wolf, he knocked out eight methods in one breath, with more than ten left.
Xu Yue took this pistol and shot the bullets in the magazine in one breath at the shield of the troll priest. The power of this imitation of the 54th pistol is not very powerful, and the damage caused to the second-level magic of the troll priest is limited. However, the "Shadow Shield" has been weakened a lot because of a fireball before. After eight consecutive bullets hit it, the energy consumption of the "Shadow Shield" turned into a black spot of light disappeared.
His shield was broken, and the troll priest was obviously panicked. He continued to wave his staff and shot out a "shadow arrow", while roaring at the two trolls under the altar. As for what he said, Xu Yue didn't understand a word. He had not learned the troll language yet. However, the two trolls who were obviously scared by the wind blade before rushed up again under the roar of the troll priest.
Xu Yue was not distracted by this, but seized the opportunity to shoot the last fireball technique at the troll priest. At this time, he was less than four meters away from the troll priest. Even at such a close distance, the troll priest clearly saw the fireball technique flying over and there was no way. After a loud bang, the troll priest who turned into a fireball fell off the altar in a scream, struggled on the ground for a few times and then stopped moving.
Xu Yue did not stop. He took out a new pistol magazine and replaced it, and then shot at the two trolls on the steps. Four of the eight bullets flew away, and only the remaining four hit the bodies of the two trolls, but none of them hit the vital points of the head and heart. With the troll's perverted recovery power, this injury can only be regarded as a minor injury to them.
However, the huge pain and the nearly completely wiped out situation made the fear in the hearts of the two trolls infinitely amplify. The two trolls let out a scream of fear and turned around and ran towards the jungle.
It was not until the two trolls had run away that Xu Yue sat on the ground with a breath. The long tracking and fierce battles exhausted his energy.
In this battle, he almost relied on magical equipment to crush the opponent. He relied on his ability to break through his third-level shield in a short period of time, so he could defeat more than a dozen trolls by tactics and a limited number of magical equipment. Of course, this is also due to the fact that the level of these trolls is not high. To a certain extent, the other party was not killed by Xu Yue with magic, but by him with money.
But even so, he finally relied on two empty magazines to scare away the last two trolls. As for his remaining magic rings of "puppet technique" and "mental control technique", with the mental power of his first-level mage, he really dared not use it on the original civilians of this world with his just-reached first-level mage, the success rate is too bad. If the entire battle process disrupts the rhythm due to the unsuccessful use of the magic, he may be surrounded and beaten by a bunch of trolls.
The magic of the "Shield of Glory" was left with only a faint light under the desperate attack of the troll priest. Xu Yue did not dissipate it. It was better to have a layer of protection in the Yege Forest than not. After a few breaths, he came to the boy who fell on the altar and tried his best on the boy's pulse and mouth and nose. Then he shook his head helplessly.
After a while of tossing, the boy's already faint fire of life was completely extinguished. Looking at the young face and pale skin, he remembered the man who was dying and wanted to save his son.
"Oh! I'm sorry, I couldn't save your son!" Xu Yue said in a low voice. Although he came for the necklace that looked like the world's gate, it was impossible to say that he was not moved by the father's actions. After all, he was just an ordinary person, so if he could save the boy in his plan, he would try his best to save him as much as possible, at least it would make him feel much better.
After a while of silence in front of the boy's body, Xu Yue took down the necklace hanging around his neck. This thing was exactly the same as what you saw on the magical image. If you just look at the appearance but not the size, it would be another gate to penetrate the world.
He untied the silver metal object in the water droplet from the necklace. After he took it in his hand and looked carefully for a while, he wanted to drip his blood on it and see what had changed, but he still held it back.
These trolls built such a large altar here, so it was absolutely impossible that there were only a dozen people. They were very likely to have caught the other party off guard and took advantage of the empty power of the other party to guard the altar so they succeeded. And the two trolls who ran away would definitely find their companions. If the remaining trolls came back, they would almost use magic and could only run through the boundary gate.
He held the water-like object into the space of the robe. He stood up with his fatigue. After looking at the boy's corpse, he took out the bottle of powder that could burn the human corpse into crystals from the space he carried. Now he knew that the name of this powder was "Eternal Sleeping Dust", which was made by some magicians specifically for dealing with corpses.
Generally, mercenaries and adventurers will spend money to buy some of this kind of powder. When some companions die and cannot transport their companions' bodies due to conditions, they will use "Eternal Sleeping Dust" to condense their companions' bodies into crystals and bring them back. This is better than burying their bones in a foreign land or simply dying without a place to die.
The boy's corpse turned into a black diamond crystal under the burning of powder. Xu Yue also understood the reason for the different colors of the corpse three times. The color of the crystal was related to the magic elements contained in the corpse. The magic elements on the three robbers on the earth were pitifully low, so the final formation was three gray stones. As people from other worlds, Oward and the boy contained high magic elements, so different crystals would be formed.
As a magician, the lesson of cleaning the battlefield can be said to be a must-learn. Xu Yue searched the corpses of the trolls based on the knowledge he saw in the book. However, what disappointed him was that these trolls who were still in the tribal era were pitifully poor. They found almost nothing except some of the cloth pieces and clothes made of branches on their bodies.
In the end, he only found the spear used by the troll to attack him. The spear was made of metal, and the patterns on it were very exquisite. However, this thing was not a magic item, so it was basically of no value. As for the staff on the troll priest's hand, it was blown into two sections because of the front blocking fireball technique. In the end, Xu Yue could only take a necklace on the troll priest's body that represented his priest's identity.
What we encountered today is very strange. In addition, it is possible that the trolls frequently drove the monsters to attack the caravan during this period, so it is very likely that this is a conspiracy. Now Xu Yue doesn't know how extensive this conspiracy is, but it's better to report it to the official of Black Rock City. After all, he is still making a living in Black Rock City and Komodo Town. If these two places suffer, he will be in trouble. The necklace of the troll sacrifice is the proof of his words.
After reading it again, there was nothing missing, Xu Yue turned around and was about to leave here. Suddenly, a sound came from the side that scared him.
