Chapter 272: Divine Beasts? (Part 1)
Chapter 272: The Divine Beast? (Part 1)
Since Salin left Ceylon City, nothing has been smooth sailing, except for the discovery of the temple this time. According to past experience, he will have to encounter more headaches next, so he kept his head making weapons and equipment in his barracks.
In fact, Salin had already made a lot of equipment, but they were all very rough. For example, Shen Sakuragi, he had already refined six Shen Sakura arrows for Erinno, but had already made a whole box of arrow shafts, and the rest was fine processing.
Eva's shield was also destroyed and needed to be remade. The effect of the magic shield was more important than the magician's shield. Su's weapons also need to be replaced with more advanced magic equipment, otherwise his combat power would be greatly reduced.
On the contrary, the four demons only need to re-repair the armor and replace some accessories. The demons driven by the four demons are basically not included in Salin's combat power.
The magicians took turns to use the alchemy telescope to observe the rivers and mountains in the distance. However, the magic circle in the alchemy telescope has never issued an alarm. The world created by this goddess is too safe, so safe that it makes people frightened.
The warriors and mages consumed too much energy in the Purgatory Desert. After resting for a day and a half, the team set off again. After more than an hour, Salin and Rex finally arrived in front of the river.
The river that lies ahead is about half a mile wide, and there is no end to see. This position is the narrowest part. A soldier dropped a piece of wood, and the dry wood sank directly into the water.
It is absolutely impossible to cross the river with a boat. Rex immediately took out a flying golem. This small flying golem was only more than one meter long and was thrown out by Rex. It flapped its wings and flew to the other side of the river. Before it could fly out ten meters, the magic circle on the flying golem raised blue smoke and was burned instantly.
Seeing the flying puppet worth thousands of gold coins falling into the river, Rex frowned.
The heavy alchemy crossbow was taken out again, and the swordsmen began to assemble. The heavy alchemy crossbow had a range of more than one mile and could carry ropes. There were big trees on the other side. As long as you shot huge arrows over and created a cable bridge, the swordsmen could freely travel between the two sides.
The heavy alchemy crossbow was set up and the test shot was aimed at a big tree on the other side.
The equipment more than six meters wide emitted a loud bang on the three huge metal brackets. After magical treatment, the arrowheads more than three meters long still emitted strong air burst sound waves.
The speed of this heavy alchemy crossbow has exceeded some magic. Ordinary people cannot observe the naked eye at all. They can only see that a channel with a diameter of half a meter has been opened in the air, forming a hole about a hundred meters long.
A huge fish and beast suddenly jumped out of the river, biting the heavy crossbow arrow in one bite. The front half of the crossbow arrow also dragged the fish and beast to fly for a distance, shifted its direction, and fell into the water.
The magicians looked at each other, and no one could sense that there was such a creature in the river.
Salin and Rex looked at each other, and both of them saw the problem. It was not a fish beast at all, but an illusion. The problem was that this illusion could launch a substantial attack. The fish beast was indeed a powerful creature, but it was not powerful enough to bite the flying alchemy crossbow arrow in the air. The alchemy crossbow arrow was more than one meter away from the river surface. Under normal circumstances, this fish beast had to jump up before the alchemy crossbow shot before it could bite the target.
Rex raised his alchemy telescope, inlaid with a high-level magic core, opened the magic circle completely, observed it upstream and downstream for a minute, then shook his head and said, "There is no bridge."
The group stood in front of the river and was blocked by this river more than 500 meters wide, helpless.
"Give me a fighting puppet." Salin pondered for a moment and thought of a question. This is the world of the goddess. Only those who abide by the rules of the goddess can enter. Needless to say, the outer space is the real dividing line.
Rex took out a small combat puppet, which was only more than two meters high. Salin released the water-patterned shield in his left hand, wrapped the combat puppet inside, and pushed it down the river.
The huge bubble wrapped the combat puppet and drifted to the other side of the river. Everyone stared at the bubble nervously. Five hundred meters was the limit of Salin's magic. The bubble relied on inertia and kept sending the combat puppet to the other side. Only then did the combat puppet exert force, drilled out of the bubble, and climbed ashore.
With a whoosh, the water temperature system flew back without any obstacles along the way.
Salin's water-patterned shield is completely closed and the goddess's life force is added. Sure enough, under the protection of the bubble, the combat puppet was not attacked and was quietly waiting for the order on the other side.
Rex was relieved that if he had to use the power of the Shenluo Ring across a river, he would basically not be able to leave the world. This place looked very peaceful, but it was much more dangerous than the Divine Punishment Area she and Salin entered. The illusion that rushed out of the river was basically equivalent to a level seven magician.
Salin remained silent and thought to himself that his water-wire shield was very special, and it was in the form of a bubble. This goddess should not have calculated it, right? This river is obviously an insurmountable barrier, and at least magicians below level six had no way to cross it. If he had not absorbed the leaves of the Tree of Life and did not have this special magic, he could only sigh at the temple in the distance.
Are all this a trap left by the gods?
He is not a believer, and the gods cannot come to him, and there is no believer in Rex's team. Logically speaking, if the goddess wants to be resurrected, she cannot pin her hopes on this team. This team is still too small compared to the gods.
"Who goes first?" Salin asked.
"I'll do it!" More than a dozen voices were made at the same time. When Salin saw that it was the sword master and sword saint under Rex. Even the bear patted his chest and volunteered.
The combat puppet is not alive, and Salin cannot guarantee whether the bubble can be sent to the living. The first person to cross the river must risk his life. Rex's men are not afraid of death.
On the other hand, everyone of Salin's men kept silent and refused to make such sacrifices. Salin was very satisfied because he knew that as long as the people around him gave orders, there would always be someone who would take risks. At least the unlucky devil could not escape. But Salin didn't speak, and these people knew how to protect themselves.
This is not cowardice, nor is it considered wisdom, but an attitude of survival.
The ten sword masters had almost the same figure. Finally, Rex directly pointed a name from someone. The man came to Salin. His eyes were blocked in the helmet by dark crystals. Salin could not see his expression.
"I don't guarantee your safety." Salin said.
"I understand, Lord Salin, please cast spells." The swordsman replied calmly. He was a little contemptuous of Salin's reaction. He came to explore together, and none of these people were willing to take the initiative to take risks. However, he also knew that Salin's people had stronger combat power than them. Even with the Snake Armor, his team did not have any overwhelming advantage. It is not worth letting more powerful people take risks.
Salin didn't say anything. He released the water-stitched shield again and wrapped the sword master. The sword master found that he could still control his advancement and retreat through his own movements. However, he didn't have to take the initiative. The bear pushed him violently behind him and pushed him into the river.
This is the benefit of the Spirit Snake Armor. Otherwise, the bear would not be able to apply its power to the water-stitched shield and would be directly slide away. If he wanted to attack, the power of this palm would be fully endorsed by the water-stitched shield. Of course, the premise is that Salin does not control this magic.
Rex watched the swordsman drifting towards the other side. The bear's power was very well controlled. This bubble could float to the other side without Salin's control. The river was not turbulent, and Rex's heart was still a little nervous. This time, in order to keep it secret, the people she brought out were absolutely loyal. Even those magicians were the first to follow her.
Seeing that the bubble reached the other side, the swordsman exerted force under his feet, jumped up, rushed out of the bubble, and came to the next to the combat puppet.
On the river bank, the swordsmen cheered. Originally, Rex's men were very calm, but after more than a month of nervousness, they could finally relax.
The water-stitch shield remade by Salin is the only one with vitality, so he can only send people across the river one by one. It turns out that the three water-stitch shields have long been digested by his gourd.
"Be careful, you two go there first." Seeing that this method is feasible, Rex made the two Black Iron Sword Saints operate.
The combat power of the Black Iron Sword Saint is much stronger than that of the sword master. After the two sword masters crossed the river, Rex immediately arranged a level five magician to cross the river. The magician and the sword master combined, even if there were any dangerous creatures on the other side, they could withstand it for a while.
All worries seemed empty. After Rex crossed the river by himself, he still did not get any attack. The last time Salin crossed the river, he flew directly over with a shield wrapped in a water-stitched shield. Landing on the bank of the river, a small head suddenly appeared in the river water behind him. The creature was the size of a palm, staring at Rex's team. Salin turned around and found this little guy.
If the goddess' envoy, Gosica, was here, she would definitely vomit blood. This was the temple guardian creature catalyzed by a lot of essence and blood. When she left, she asked the creature to protect the temple, but it returned to the river and did not develop any protective power at all.
There is no way, it is still too weak and has no time to grow, and the intelligence of this creature has not been fully developed. It will take three to five hundred years to wait until it is fully understood by Gosica's order.
