Chapter 38 The Tower of Grinding (Part 2)
Now Xiwei finally understood what it means to be fully prepared in the mission notes.
It does not mean that you should make every effort to improve your strength before entering the dungeon, or prepare potions and props carefully - although this is also important - but rather water and food.
The movements that have been sleepless for nearly ten hours have almost reached their limits, both physical and mental strength and energy.
Hunger can still be slightly tolerated, but exercise causes a lot of sweating. Without drinking water, Sivie has begun to experience moderate dehydration symptoms.
It is not a situation where you can relax and find a water source. Although there are liquid magic potions and emergency medicines... but drinking precious potions because of thirst is no longer a luxury, but a complete waste.
What's more, whether those medicines are quenched by quenching thirst after drinking them is still the same thing.
Sivi endured the nausea caused by dehydration, but even in a not-bright environment, an extremely obvious shadow appeared on the ground under his feet and began to grow gradually.
A huge spider is falling from the sky!
As a weak mage apprentice, even if Siwei can run out of the shadow that is the opponent's landing point, he will become a state of facing the Titan tarantula that is close to him.
This is really a bad situation for Xiwei, who has no melee ability. The straight-line distance here is less than one kilometer away from the huge stone pillar. The stone pillar, which has been in the darkness, has also lifted the last tulle of darkness, showing its original appearance.
Well, although its true nature is still an ordinary stone pillar...
Since you can't escape, you can only resist first!
Xiwei stopped suddenly, holding the Dark Night Sky Ball in his hand, and pointed at the giant beast in the air with a serious expression.
The Titan tarantula itself is extremely stunning in weight, but they can jump up dozens of meters and jump out hundreds of meters. In addition to the unique power of being an arthropod, there is another reason.
The anti-gravity characteristic is this spell-like ability belonging to the earth element system that allows Titan tarantula to have such a huge body but can still perform various agile activities.
However, this also gave Xiwei a certain degree of convenience.
If the other party is on the ground, because the spider's seemingly inconspicuous fur fur on its eight legs has a strong grounding power, even Xiwei's full-strength attack only makes the other party feel a little painful, and even the shield formed by the elemental guard cannot be broken.
But it was different in the air. Although he still couldn't break the opponent's defense, he still had some confidence to knock off a Titan tarantula, which was not of great mass due to its anti-gravity characteristics!
What's more, the Dark Night Sky itself also has an attack attribute bonus of [Magic Attack: 70~130].
Before Sivi encountered the Titan tarantula, he discovered in the tunnel that the so-called magic attack attribute does not directly increase the power of the fixed magic.
If it is elemental magic or shadow magic formed by dominating shadows, because elements take precedence over the iron rule of magic (this is also why pure magical arcane in this world is not popular), the weighting of this magic attack is all counted on elemental damage. For example, the most elemental magic that Siwei uses currently, the explosion of the flame arrow, the temperature of the magic flame is more than twice as high as that of the release with bare hands, and the burning time has been extended a lot.
The problem is that before the opponent's element guard is broken, the so-called elemental damage is just a joke...
If it is replaced by magic missiles and mage hands with pure magic, the magic attack becomes an increase in the level of effort. However, even so, it is difficult for simple magic to hurt the Titan tarantula with elemental armor.
But now it is different. What Xiwei wants is not to cause damage, but just the power that can knock the opponent away.
Just like playing baseball, what the thug does is not to break the ball, but to knock it out!
Facing the terrifying pressure of the Titan Tarantula as if it were pressed by Mount Tai, Siwei gritted his teeth and tried his best to calm his beating heart.
Magic missiles have good power, but they will explode after hitting the opponent. In combat, this kind of explosion can cause some spreading damage. Although purely magic missiles are not powerful, they are always better than nothing.
But in the current situation, such an explosion will only waste magic power in vain. Before learning to bluntly attack magic, using the mage's hand to hit the power and give it a head-on blow, and pull it away hard is the best choice.
However, unlike magic missiles, although Xiwei's mage's hand can also be extended, the farther the distance, the more magic power it consumes. With the same magic power, the power cannot be exerted.
Therefore, if you want to hit the opponent as much as possible, you can only wait until it enters the 'range' before attacking. In this way, the timing of the attack is the key!
Just like in ancient wars, archers faced the cavalry rushing towards the opposite side. If they shot too early, they would not even hurt their hair, but if they shot too late, the other party would have rushed to you long ago...
Siwei faced this situation, not to mention that compared to the rushing cavalry, it was like a mountain roaring with Titan tarantula falling from the sky, which obviously put more psychological pressure on people.
Just when Xiwei could see even the cherous limbs that kept waving in the other party's mouth clearly, he finally took action!
The magic power in his body flowed into the Dark Night Sky Ball like a flood, and a circle of blurred runes appeared around the gem in front of the short staff.
However, Sivi had no time to see what it was. After being increased by the Dark Night Sky Ball, he almost exhausted all his magic power. The invisible magic hand hit the bulging abdomen of the Titan Tarantula!
The spider's neighing sound immediately came, but the sound was more like anger than pain!
The little bug that it ignored was completely unnoticed (although it still didn't break the defense), which made it completely angry that it had dominated this area for a long time.
However, before it could figure out what was going on, the mage's hand on its abdomen suddenly exerted force and threw its huge body directly backwards!
Judging from the landing point of the parabola, I'm afraid it's two or three kilometers away from the current Xiwei!
However, Xiwei did not stop the action. While the Titan Tarantula flew out, he directly poured a bottle of magic potion, and then added another round of magic missiles with all their strength!
Then he didn't go to see the results and turned around and ran towards the stone pillar.
The furious Titan tarantula spit out venom balls with corrosive effects in vain, but because of insufficient range, it landed behind Xiwei. In the end, its six big eyes could only watch Xiwei disappear by the huge stone pillar...
