Studying Science in the Alternate World - Chapter 260
Chapter 260 Bamboo Pole Spirit
Sinking Devil, a negative product that has accompanied the Arcane Master since its birth.
If the spiritual mystery is a mountain above the snow line, then the fallen demon is one of those who climbed the mountain and died.
Especially in the early days, before the invention of the Twisted Ring, arcanists could not keep to their hearts, and corrupted people abounded.
It is also for this reason.
Even though the arcanists have activated another powerful force, the Stormwind Empire under the rule of the knights, still suppresses and excludes the arcanists.
After all, no one can guarantee whether the arcane mage who greeted him today will degenerate into a fallen demon and kill him tomorrow.
Even arcanists are full of intrigue and defense against each other.
Until the creation of the Seven Towers Federation.
An arcane master accidentally discovered that he could lock his own heart in the spiritual core in the form of mapping, thus inventing the twisted ring technology. Since then, the Arcane Masters have finally curbed the birth of the Fallen Demon by virtue of the effect of the Distortion Ring.
The arcanist who invented the twisted ring, Oviu, was also successfully selected as a sage after the establishment of the Temple of Valor.
but.
The Ring of Distortion can indeed curb the birth of the Fallen Demon, but it cannot guarantee a 100% success rate. After all, some arcane masters suffer from some kind of accidental loss of heart, and even the Ring of Distortion cannot block it, and eventually become spiritual slaves.
Only act according to the desire of the heart, no longer have any personality.
“Roar!”
Beyond the beam of light in the moonlight cage, the fallen demon billowing in black smoke circled the beam of light, as if looking for a weak point to break through the beam of light.
In the battleship Bibo, Duke stared nervously at the fallen demon outside.
Kiston Raging Phantom, who has returned to the battleship, looked very serious: “This fallen demon is very powerful, it is at the level of a 7-ring morning star, Duke, can the moonlight cage given by Lord Thursas withstand its blow?”
“I don’t know, but Lord Thursas told me that the Moonlight Cage is strong enough to last until he himself arrives.” Duke replied.
“I hope so, otherwise, you wait… It’s a bad luck.” Keyston’s phantom looked serious.
Facing the 7-ring morning star-level sinking demon, let alone the phantom of Keyston is just a clone of the 5th ring, even if Keyston himself came, it would not be enough to see.
“Yeah, I can only hope for Master Celsas… This feeling of powerlessness is really… hateful!” The jade pendant in Duke’s hand has been shattered into powder, looking at the fallen demon hovering outside the beam of light, he doesn’t even have a strong will to draw a gun.
His second-ring sand eagle can kill 5-ring spirit beasts, and even with some strength, find the weak point, and it is not impossible to kill 6-ring spirit beasts.
But for spirit beasts whose life level has reached level 7, they cannot break the defense.
Even the 7th ring spirit beast can’t break the defense, so what’s the use in facing the 7th ring fallen demon.
It should be noted that a 5-ring arcane mage like Keyston can basically hang 7-ring and 8-ring spirit beasts, and even a 9-ring sub-dragon can resist one or two. Back then when the Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon invaded, it was Keyston Raging Wave who sacrificed his own arcane weapon to repel the Black Jade Horseshoe crab.
Perhaps from the level of life, the ring level of the spirit beast is not much different from the ring level of the arcanist.
But with the blessing of wisdom and civilization, the combat effectiveness of arcanists far exceeds that of a large class of spirit beasts.
The 1st ring, 2nd ring, and 3rd ring are a large class, the 4th ring, 5th ring, and 6th ring are a large class, and the 7th ring, 8th ring, and 9th ring are another large class.
The second-ring sand eagle can surpass a large level and kill 6-ring spirit beasts, but it is absolutely impossible to surpass two large levels and kill 7-ring spirit beasts.
What’s more, the fallen demon is basically the fallen arcanist, and its combat effectiveness is basically the same as that of the arcanist.
“Duke.” Kiston phantom suddenly turned his head.
“What?”
“If Lord Thursas fails to arrive in time, I will detonate this clone and the battleship Bibo to defend you for a while, and you run away as far as you can… As long as Thursas can come before he catches you, you have hope of surviving.”
Heard the words.
Duke turned his head with difficulty, and glanced at the two little assistants, Mu Lali and Mu Lashan, who were trembling with fear not far away.
And the personal knight, Vivienne, who is firmly guarding him.
Even if Keyston said that he was going to detonate the Bibo, Vivian only raised her eyebrows when she heard it, and had no other reaction.
Touched the small pocket on his shoulder, Duke’s nervous expression suddenly calmed down: “No need, my lord.”
“You are stupid!” Keyston Xuying stared.
Immediately, he seemed to understand something, and said coldly: “Everyone on this battleship is serving you, including dying for you! There is no other reason, and you don’t need your unprovoked women’s kindness. It is their fate to sacrifice for the Arcane Master!”
Boom!
Outside, the Fallen Demon, who lingered for a long time, finally couldn’t bear it any longer, stretched out his hand and waved it. Suddenly, three large arcane hands with billowing black smoke gathered around his body, grabbing at the beam of light in the moonlight cage.
Like hot oil meeting cold water.
Violent explosions sounded one after another on the edge of the beam of light, and the **** smoked hands were burned miserably by the moonlight. But the Sinking Demon didn’t care about it, and manipulated the black smoke’s big hand to attack the beam of light continuously, letting the beam of light burn, it only destroyed one point of it.
“My lord!” Vivian took a step forward, touching her chest with her right hand, “You are our hope, and being able to sacrifice for you is our meaning!”
Captain Herdos, who was wearing golden armor, also took a step forward and gave a knightly salute: “Dying to protect your lord is part of our contract. Please don’t worry about your lord. As a knight, you will be martyred in battle. You deserve to die. It is an honor to die!”
Boom!
Besides the beam of light, the fallen demon went berserk, not only gathering black smoke to attack the beam of light with big hands, but also risking being burned by the moonlight, constantly squeezing in from the dim place of the beam of light.
“At stake!” Keyston waved his hand, “Duke, leave the battleship, hurry up!”
between words.
His figure has already rushed out of the battleship, condensing countless arcane ice cones, like Gatling, bombarding the location of the fallen demon indiscriminately.
“My lord, leave!” Vivian shouted urgently.
“No rush, no rush.”
Duke waved his hand.
Already communicating with Xiaoyi in his heart: “Run at full power, hurry up, Xiaoyi, put all the power into the charging of the Duke Star!”
“Master, it is fully charged.”
“How long is it full?”
“3 minutes and 15 seconds…3 minutes and 12 seconds…” Xiaoyi started counting down.
Duke suddenly flashed two sharp lights in his eyes, turned his head to Vivienne and Herdos and said: “Join the battle cabin and resist the fallen demon.”
“grown ups!”
“Do as you are told.”
“Yes…” The two had no choice but to enter the battle compartment
As for Duke himself, he also entered the battle cabin, condensed the Arcane Hand and the Second Ring Sand Eagle, and silently waited for the charging of the Star Mark in Duke Star to be completed.
“Chichi!” Xiaodou, who didn’t know why, also followed, jumped on Duke’s shoulder, and prepared to fight side by side with Duke.
“Okay, let’s fight together!”
Duke cast his eyes forward, and the Fallen Demon was still desperately squeezing into the beam of light, which had squeezed the beam out of a huge groove.
Kiston phantom desperately released the arcane.
Turning around, seeing that Duke had not left the battleship, he couldn’t help shouting, “What are you doing!”
Duke responded loudly: “Master Keyston, buy me 2 minutes and 24 seconds, don’t worry, I have my own way to get out!”
Taking a deep look at Duke in the battle cabin, Keyston turned his head and focused on killing the Fallen.
Thersas has not yet arrived.
The Fallen Demon has squeezed his whole body into the groove of the moonlight cage, and the light in the beam of light is distorted, like a piece of plastic film, which may break at any time.
However, the light also burned the black smoke on the Sinking Demon’s body all the time, causing the Sinking Demon to let out a shrill roar, as if the flesh and blood were being burned.
At this time.
Suddenly came a reminder from Xiaoyi in his mind: “The face comparison is successful, and the identity of the fallen demon has been determined. It is the 7th Ring Morning Star Arcane Instructor, the guardian of the gravel field, and the chief executive of the United Tower of Gaohe City Miguel.”
“Damn Hippy!”
Duke was furious: “I knew it was this bastard, because I robbed him of the opportunity to activate the will of the stars, and he became a fallen demon and he wouldn’t let me go!”
In fact, there is no need to compare the faces of young artists, and Duke can roughly guess that this fallen demon is very likely to be Miguel.
Seeing the fallen demon Miguel, his whole body was about to squeeze through the beam of light.
Duke clenched his fists and gritted his teeth: “You dog, it’s not that I insist on snatching your chance. You don’t want to find fault with the meeting of stars, you come to me! What’s going on in the world, even the fallen devil knows that the persimmon is soft!”
“1 minute 21 seconds…” Xiaoyi is still counting down.
The figure of Celsus has not yet appeared.
Seeing that the fallen demon Miguel was about to squeeze in, Keyston’s phantom floated in front of the battle cabin where Duke was, and said in a cold voice: “Detonate the battleship, you still have the last hope of escape, Duke, if you hesitate any longer, it will be too late!”
“I understand, my lord, but I have better choices! Trust me!” Duke’s eyes were firm.
Detonate the battleship, at most resist the fallen demon Miguel for a while, facing the 7-ring morning star-level fallen devil, even if Duke relies on “Duke Flying Feather” to speed up to hundreds of kilometers per hour, whether he can really escape the fallen demon Miguel’s pursuit is still an unsolved mystery.
The only way to escape is to hide in the dreamland of stars.
“54 seconds!” Duke responded loudly, “Sir, help me hold on for another 54 seconds, not 52 seconds!”
Unaware of the severity, Keyston chose to believe in Duke. Perhaps he also knew in his heart that Duke’s safety could not be guaranteed even if the battleship was detonated.
Immediately.
Kiston phantom looked at the damaged beam of light, and went to meet it without looking back. The moment the fallen demon Miguel was about to reach in, he exploded his clone.
Boom!
The huge explosion shock wave caused the entire battleship Bibo to sway in the air, like a flat boat in the sea.
“Roar!” Miguel the Fallen Demon roared.
Duke stared scorchingly at the outside of the battle cabin, waiting for the light from the explosion of the clone to dissipate, and saw Miguel, the fallen demon, being blown back a little.
But only a little bit.
The black smoke on Miguel’s body had been dimmed by the moonlight, and it became even darker under the impact of the explosion of Keyston’s avatar.
Even some places where the black smoke cannot cover, you can see the bones.
I don’t know what kind of mutation it is that makes a human being suddenly transform into a fallen demon tens of meters high.
“21 seconds…”
“Roar!”
One arm of Miguel, the fallen demon, has squeezed into the moonlight cage, followed by his head, sticking to the edge of the faint beam of light, twisting and fading the light like blowing a balloon.
At the same time, the light burned the black smoke on its head, and extinguished the black smoke in its entire head.
The complete white skull was exposed, as well as two groups of green ghost fires in the eye sockets, and green gas was emitted to the outside.
“Isn’t Thursas here yet?” Duke glanced at the moon in the sky, which was no longer so bright, “The 8-ring Huiyue Arcana instructor is not so reliable.”
He patted the small pocket on his shoulder: “Go down, stay here, I’m going to do something big.”
“Chichi!” Xiaodou bit Duke’s collar with a firm attitude.
Duke turned his gaze away and ignored it.
Opening the door of the combat compartment, he jumped off the battleship, and then a white wing stretched out behind him, carrying him towards the fallen demon Miguel.
The hand of the arcane weapon is tightly suspended in front of him.
The Second Ring Sand Eagle has already aimed at the Sinking Demon Miguel.
When he was in front of Miguel the Fallen Demon, Duke could see the head and arms of Miguel the Fallen Demon, which had been completely squeezed into the moonlight cage.
He suddenly raised the second-ring Sand Eagle, with a stern smile on the corner of his mouth: “Come on, Miguel, have a taste of your beauty!”
The Sand Eagle switched to the burst mode, and the muzzle continued to spray arcane light.
Puff puff puff puff…
Explosive bombs exploded one after another in the eye sockets, nostrils, and mouth of the fallen demon Miguel, and clusters of fireworks overflowed.
It seems that countless big red flowers have been embroidered on the face of the fallen demon Miguel.
“Ha ha!”
Duke’s shuttle shot emptied, Duke’s flying feathers flapped, and his whole figure rushed away in the opposite direction like a ray of light.
After a short time, it rushed out of the range of the moonlight cage.
This moonlight cage is a one-way defense, preventing the outside but not the inside, so Duke can rush out at will and dive towards the ground at extreme speed.
“My lord!” Vivienne lay on the glass of the battle cabin and shouted loudly.
But Duke had disappeared into the sky.
Miguel, the fallen demon who suffered from Du Keyan’s size, also gave up and continued to squeeze into the moonlight cage. With a swing of his figure, black smoke billowed and ignited, and he chased towards the ground.
Leave the Bibo and the people on the first battleship, calling for Duke loudly.
Vivian rushed directly to the door of the battleship, intending to jump off and follow Duke, but was subdued by Herdos: “Don’t do anything stupid, my lord is deeply favored by spirituality, nothing will happen!”
Mu Lali and Mu Lashan also rushed over, hugged Vivian and cried loudly: “Sister Vivian, sir will be fine!”
“The spirituality of the entire Heijiaohe land, the spirituality of the entire Seven Towers Federation, dotes on sir, and sir will come back safely!”
Vivian leaned against Mu Lali and Mu Lashan’s arms, staring at the figure of Miguel, the fallen demon who was following Duke, in a daze.
at the same time.
Duke was about to reach the ground, but Miguel, the fallen demon behind him, was as fast as a ghost, and rushed behind him in the blink of an eye.
See it.
Duke didn’t dare to hold on anymore, so he could only grab the small pocket on his shoulder: “Whether you can live or not depends on your own good luck… Who told you not to stay on the battleship!”
He intends to throw Xiaodou from a high altitude. Whether Xiaodou can survive depends on the ability to resist falling.
“Flexible your body, use your tail to control…balance…balance!” Duke was about to throw Xiaodou out of his hand.
At this moment, in his field of vision, everything is twisting and pulling.
Even his own voice became huge and ethereal.
But at the most critical moment, Xiaodou turned around and bit Duke’s hand directly, unwilling to leave.
Boom!
The fallen demon Miguel grabbed it with his **** smoke hand.
But the shortest distance became the furthest distance in the next instant, and the figures of Duke and Xiaodou disappeared together in the palm of the black smoke’s big hand.
The green will-o’-the-wisp trembled, and the fallen demon Miguel roared unwillingly.
“Roar!”
…
Starlight shines.
Duke couldn’t believe his eyes when he looked at Xiaodou who was biting his hand and followed him into the dream of stars.
“Can you also follow me?” He always thought that the mark of the stars could only let him in, but he didn’t expect Xiaodou to be brought in too. “It must be a contract, the mark of the knight’s contract, and Xiaodou bit me at a critical moment, so it was brought in!”
“Chichi!” Xiaodou didn’t know why, so he quickly jumped onto Duke’s shoulder, and then carefully looked at the surrounding starry sky.
Duke thought of another point, patted his stomach: “Chicken, can you hear me?”
“What are you doing!” Chick thought, responding with a lazy message.
“Great!” Duke laughed.
Knight contracts can bring small pockets in, and elf contracts can naturally bring chickens in. Maybe in the future, after studying the power of contracts, more people or things can be brought in.
fifteen minutes.
Limited duration.
Duke sighed: “I don’t know if the battleship Bibo will become the target of Miguel the Fallen Demon after I disappear, probably not, his target is only me… I hope Celsus can arrive in time.”
He can only comfort himself in this way.
“However, do I stay here for fifteen minutes and return to reality, or do I look for another star and leave from another place?”
Thinking that Miguel, the fallen demon, was still watching outside, Duke immediately denied returning to reality from where he was.
Thirsas is late, don’t hope for him.
”The fall of Miguel, the fallen devil, may have something to do with me. At least before he fell, he must have held grudges against me. The fallen devil will only act according to his desires, and his desire may be to kill me…Be careful!”
Think here.
Duke resolutely walked towards the surrounding stars. He tried to use “Duke’s Flying Feather” to fly here, but both his fighting spirit and spiritual power had been suppressed and he couldn’t use it.
Can only run forward.
“Let’s go to that star first, follow the route we traveled before, and record the messages of all the stars as much as possible.” Duke has already confirmed that he will not return to the previous position, so he must be prepared not to return in the short term.
Until you find the tree king in the Seven Towers Federation, you can return to your homeland.
“Xiao Yi, remember the information of all the stars!”
“Good master.” Unlike the dream when the will of the stars is activated, in the starry sky, Xiaoyi will not be blocked.
However, at the next moment, it seemed to echo Duke’s thoughts.
The Star of Duke under his feet suddenly stretched out an energy line, connecting all the dozen or so stars he had checked before.
As his thoughts flashed, the whole person had already appeared at the star position he wanted to go to.
“Ah this!” Duke was startled, and then he understood, “I can teleport to any star that I’ve ‘lighted’ on!”
This is great.
Duke chanted directly in his heart, wanting to go to the position of the farthest star he had touched before, and in the next moment, he was already standing beside this star.
Then continue to move forward, run to another star, and reach out to touch it.
In a trance, he turned into a big tree.
The big tree is swaying in the dense forest. A big snake that is so huge that you can’t see the whole picture is entrenched on the branch of the tree king with three rings, lazily basking in the sun, and its vitality is so strong that Duke feels a sense of suffocation.
“Huh!”
“This giant python is definitely a 9-ring sub-dragon level. It slipped away.” Duke quickly withdrew from the tree king’s consciousness and returned to the starry sky.
Then ran to the next star without looking back.
As he ran, one star after another was touched, and then lit up in series by the Duke star under his feet.
The three-ring tree kings in the real world that these stars are connected to are not in the Seven Towers Federation. They are either in dense jungles, or in desert oases, or in poisonous swamps, and some even grow in deep water.
“Master, there is one minute left before fifteen minutes.” Xiaoyi reminded.
“It’s time to choose a tree king.” Duke’s eyes wandered around the energy line under his feet, and finally locked his eyes on a star that was lit last time. “Just this one, the three-ringed big elf is the tree king. I don’t feel the breath of spirit beasts around.”
The tree king that gave birth to the three-ringed great elf interested him. If there is a chance to contract a great elf, it would be wonderful.
He never forgot that he once had a dream to turn Qihai into a real paradise for elves.
With a flash of thought, a person has appeared beside the star. Duke reached out and touched it, and instantly transformed into the tree king of the three-ringed great elf.
“Xiaodou, come with me.”
“Chi Chi!”
“Return!” Duke guided.
Immediately afterwards, I felt that the sky was spinning, the starlight was receding sharply, and the distorted colorful light finally froze into a huge tree king.
Like an oak tree.
It doesn’t count how high it is, at most a hundred meters, but the crown of the tree covers an area of one kilometer. Without air roots, the branches just extend a distance of hundreds of meters. When the wind blows, they only shake slightly, which shows the degree of toughness.
And Duke, at this moment, is standing on a branch of the king oak tree.
The branches under the feet are about ten meters thick, and they can run black beetle cars on them, and even build a few houses, and there is a thick layer of soil, with large patches of grass growing.
This is an oak tree, but also an ecological small world.
“Chichi!” Xiaodou also appeared on Duke’s shoulder, and followed Duke to this foreign land, looking at the surrounding environment curiously.
“Xiaoyi, hang up the breathing method, search the surrounding environment, and use all the remaining power to recharge the star mark.”
“Okay master…Master, I found a group of humanoid creatures and a big elf moving quickly in the direction of the master.” Xiaoyi just established the breathing resonance, and then noticed something abnormal around her, and sounded the alarm.
“Humanoid? Great elf?” Duke raised his eyebrows.
Quickly activated the arcane magic, then quietly jumped onto the crown of the oak tree, and used the arcane magic to cover his tracks.
The Arcane Hand has been suspended behind him, holding the second-ring sand eagle.
On the Dou Qi holographic screen, the red dots marked as humanoids and the green dots marked as great elves mixed together and ran towards his position quickly.
“Shh, Xiaodou, don’t make any noise.”
“Gee…”
Duke didn’t run around, running around in an unfamiliar jungle would be more dangerous.
The speed of the humanoids and great elves was very fast, and after a few breaths, they had already appeared in Duke’s field of vision.
Those are humanoid creatures that can be called “bamboo poles”. If you look closely at the facial features, they are somewhat similar to Duke’s elf form.
Pointy and long ears, deep eye sockets, and a high nose bridge.
It is uglier, darker, and more slender, giving Duke the feeling that these are thin bamboo poles that can move.
“The tentative name is ‘Bamboo Pole Fairy’, Xiao Yi.”
“Good master.”
The Bamboo Pole Elf stopped when it reached the green shade of the oak tree, and a brown butterfly much larger than the washbasin flew out of it. It fluttered to the depths of the tree crown, and flew straight towards the branch where Duke was.
The flight trajectory is very beautiful, and the shape is as smooth as brown jade.
It makes people feel good when they see it.
“Huh, can it find me?” Duke’s doubts flashed across, “That’s right, it may be conceived by this oak tree. There is no essential difference between me standing on the oak tree and standing on it.”
Since it has been discovered.
And feeling that the big elf and the bamboo pole elves under the tree were not threatening, Duke did not continue to dodge.
Xiaoyi judged from the breath resonance that these bamboo elves basically have a spiritual power fluctuation level of around 1 ring.
A single shot of Sand Eagle can kill a large area.
