Chapter 2744: Mist and Rock Transformation

When Wai was breaking the fog spell, a group of wizards at the edge of the arena were also watching the fog that filled the sky above the arena.

"Very interesting fog spell." Angel said after observing for a while.

"Another one who is not doing his job properly... How did their traveling merchant organization train apprentices, all of them are like this?" Dox shook his head and sighed.

Listening to the comments of Angel and Dox, Kael on the side was completely confused.

Kael also knew that the fog spell was actually just a general term, and it still depended on the apprentice's own performance. However, at such a long distance, and with the inability to penetrate the mental power, Kael did not know how the fog spell inside was released specifically, and could only judge from the words of Angel and Dox.

However, the more he listened, the more confused he became.

"Is there anything unusual about this fog spell?" Kael couldn't help asking.

"No, it's just very... special." Dox: "Just like the shepherd opposite, very special, and also very unprofessional."

Dox's explanation still puzzled Kael. How is it related to the shepherd again?

At this time, Angel said: "This fog spell actually has nothing to do with fog. The fog is made of a special kind of hyphae."

"Hypha?" Kael was stunned for a moment and exclaimed: "Floating fungal barrier?"

Dokes said unhappily: "Do you think an apprentice can create a floating fungal barrier in such a short time? Besides, the floating fungal barrier requires a very harsh environment. All the indicators here cannot be met."

The floating fungal barrier is the fungal barrier disaster with the widest range and the most casualties in the Southern Territory wizard world. The so-called fungal barrier is the dense interweaving of mycelium, which forms an environment like a fog barrier. If you step into it carelessly, you will be invaded by the hyphae in the body and become a hotbed for fungal reproduction.

Even formal wizards may die if they are not careful, so for apprentices, the floating fungal barrier is very scary.

As for why it is the fungal barrier disaster with the widest range and the most casualties "once". Because, when the dome appeared in the Kingdom of Eternal Night, the Dome Disaster replaced the floating bacterial barrier and became the largest bacterial barrier disaster.

At present, there is a view in the wizard community of the Southern Region that the light spots that escaped from the dome, which can be controlled even by formal wizards, are a special kind of artificially cultivated fungus. Therefore, it is also classified as a bacterial barrier disaster.

Of course, this is not the mainstream view, but gossip magazines have widely spread such views. In the end, the Dome Disaster of the Kingdom of Eternal Night was kidnapped by public opinion and replaced the floating bacterial barrier, becoming the most terrible bacterial barrier disaster at present.

Angel: "Although it is not a floating bacterial barrier, it can barely be regarded as a bacterial barrier, right?"

Once the floating bacterial barrier spreads, it can almost engulf some small countries. But the bacterial barrier on the arena looks like clouds and fog, but it can only cover a range of 100 meters, which is not comparable to the floating bacterial barrier.

However, it is a bacterial barrier after all, and has the characteristics of bacterial barriers: invasion, spread and division and proliferation.

Invasion and spread are literal meanings, no explanation is needed. As for the proliferation of fission, this is very special. It is like an earthworm. Most earthworms can be divided into two individuals when cut in the middle, instead of dying directly. Similarly, once the hyphae in the fungal barrier are cut, they will not lose their activity, but will divide more and more.

This proliferation must have an upper limit, but when the number reaches a certain level, even if there is an upper limit, you can't eliminate the fungal barrier by cutting the hyphae.

There are not many fungal barriers on the arena, and Wai also has a way to cut them to the upper limit. However, if Wai is left alone to do it, it may take a long time.

Wai can't spend so much time to cut the hyphae, and there is a ghost next to him.

"In addition to cutting the hyphae, is there any other way to break this fog spell?" Kael asked. If Wai doesn't quickly break the fog spell, it will be difficult to find the ghost. And if the ghost can't be found, Wai basically can't win.

"It depends on the properties of the ghost's hyphae and what substances it fears." Dox: "We only need to do a small test in the laboratory to find out. But do you think Wai has time to do experiments?"

Kael: "Then, what should we do now?"

"Since Wai can't do experiments at this time, he can only try his luck and try the most common methods of breaking the bacterial barrier one by one. If it still doesn't work in the end, he can only fight the ghost in the fog."

After hearing Dox's explanation, Kael sighed and thought to himself: Sure enough, he should go on stage first.

The ability of the ghost is simply too targeted at Wai.

However, it's too late to say these now. Wai has already come on stage. Now we can only pray that Wai can quickly find a way to break the bacterial barrier.

...

Wai, who was highly expected by everyone, was pale and frightened at this time.

Although Wai hasn't fought with others for a long time, his combat theory is still very advanced. After all, Wai seldom stepped out of Mesomia. Apart from staying at his own fortune-telling shop, his biggest hobby was to go to the Sky Tower in Mesomia to watch the battles. Having watched duels for decades, even if he did not play, he had a rich knowledge of battle theory, enough to be called the king of talking big.

Because of his strong battle theory, when Wai saw the opponent's ghost release the fog spell, he immediately began to follow the theoretical process of fighting the shadow system and began to identify the opponent's fog spell.

As long as the fog is broken, defeating the ghost will be as easy as taking something out of a bag.

However, when Wai's mental power probed into the fog, he was frightened.

This is not a fog at all, it is full of dense mycelium, this is simply a fungal barrier!

Moreover, these fungal barriers seem to react to mental power. As soon as Wai's mental power entered the fog, he felt a sense of numbness, which was transmitted back to the mental center from the mental tentacles.

It was just a moment, and Wai had a forced loss of consciousness.

First, the appearance of the fungal barrier scared Wai. Second, Wai knew too well what the consequences would be if he suddenly lost consciousness during the battle. It is very likely to create an opportunity for the enemy to kill with one blow. Combining the two, Wai's face turned pale.

The fact is indeed as Wai expected, the ghost attacked at this time.

Even though Wai had made defenses and even placed energy-triggered ground spikes in the area where his shadow might spread, he was still hit.

Because the ghost did not attack as usual, but turned into a physical body and attacked Wai from mid-air.

When Wai felt the wind coming from his head, he immediately realized that he had been tricked. He wanted to expand his defense to the sky, but it was too late.

For most apprentices, if the head is hit by energy without protection, it is basically dead or disabled. But Wai, when he was distracted, panicked and only thought that the opponent would attack his shadow from bottom to top, forgetting that the opponent could also return from the energy body to the flesh and attack his head directly.

If Wai was hit by this trick, let alone winning or losing, it would be a problem whether he could stand and leave the arena.

At this critical moment, Wai also knew that he could not hide it, and activated the blood of the Noah clan without hesitation.

Almost instantly, Wai's entire head was rocked.

The inheritance of the power of the earth, this is the extraordinary secret hidden in the Noah bloodline.

However, the reaction time was too short after all. Apart from turning his head into rock, Wai did not take into account many details; for example, the rock turned too fast and there was no fixed fulcrum.

Therefore, apart from protecting his head, all other impacts were received.

The huge force directly knocked Wai away, and he bounced on the ground several times in a row, and finally fell heavily from a high altitude.

Wai did not care about his own injuries. At the moment of falling, he immediately controlled the power of the earth and created a completely closed stone prison to wrap himself.

The stone prison technique is a control technique that can restrict the opponent's actions. But when Wai used it on himself, it became a powerful defensive technique.

With the protection of this stone prison, Wai could also take a breath and adjust his state.

Wai slightly sensed his own injuries. Apart from some unavoidable external injuries, he was basically fine. However, there was a big hole in his head, which also showed that the opponent was quite strong. He was not one of those weak shadow apprentices who only cultivated their shadows but not their bodies that he had seen in the Sky Tower competition.

Although there was a hole in his head, it didn't matter that his head was completely petrified now.

Wai gently patted his ears, and the hole was restored.

After the head was restored, Wai took out three bottles of potions from his brooch without hesitation.

The three bottles were different in style, one was conical, one was chained, and one was wrapped with vines.

The potion in the conical bottle was Yingrong potion, a low-level potion that could quickly recover from external injuries.

The potion with chains was pheromone transmutable water, which could quickly block the extraordinary associations related to pheromones, and at the same time change pheromones or hide pheromones.

The potion wrapped with vines was Carissa's antidote.

All three potions were basic potions, but except Yingrong potion, which was a potion for the general public, pheromone transmutable water and Carissa's antidote were rare and precious potions on the market, and they were expensive.

Moreover, among these three potions, the Yingvelvet potion has the most obvious effect. For the current Wai, the other two potions are more of a precaution.

Pheromones can easily turn into water because Wai is worried that the other party will use pheromones to make trouble. After all, he was injured and must have bled. If he is cursed by the pheromones remaining in the blood, it will not be worth the loss.

Carissa antidote has the function of preventing and removing toxins, and it also has a certain resistance to energy toxins. Wai took it to prepare for a rainy day, worried that the other party's attack was "poisonous".

After all, in his opinion, you can obviously attack with a shadow, but you turn into a physical body to attack, there must be a secret that cannot be told. Maybe it is with toxins, so take the antidote first.

This is probably a display of wealth.

Although the apprentice could not see what Wai did through the stone prison, it was all seen by the official wizards present.

For this behavior, Dox scolded him for his waste in the mind band.

Pheromone water and Carissa's antidote were completely wasted.

Kael also agreed with Dox's words, but he didn't dare to say it out loud.

On the contrary, Angel was mumbling something. After listening carefully, he found that what he was saying were similar: Maca Fragrance, Light Blue Potion, Bruno Amplification Potion, Black Charm Soup, Sunlight Praise...

These are the scientific names of some potions, all of which can prevent various tricks in advance, or accumulate power to increase potions.

At first, Doakes didn't understand what Angel meant, until Angel said: "If you want to drink, you should drink these together, it will be safer."

Doakes: "..."

Angel: "Although most of these are of little use, if you want to use medicine to prevent your opponent's tricks, you should be more comprehensive."

At this moment, Doakes once again felt the unevenness of the world, the gap between rich and poor.

Perhaps it was because the eyes of Doakes and Kael were too "hot", Angel looked back at them, and then said softly: "This is just a little suggestion from me. You have more combat experience. In fact, it is completely useless." Not on."

Angel's words tactfully made them feel sorry for him.

More combat experience? Can't use it? No, they could use it, they just couldn't afford it.

Angel thought he had resolved the embarrassment with his high emotional intelligence and empathy, so he changed the topic and started talking about the changes on the duel field again.

Angel: "The head can actually be transformed into elements. It's really surprising that Vai can do this during his apprenticeship."

Doakes: Were you surprised? Why didn't I see your surprised look?

Doakes complained in his heart that he was complaining, but he still followed Angel's words: "Wai will turn into stone very early. It should be related to Noah's bloodline..."

At this point, Doakes glanced at the Black Earl and saw that he had no reaction before continuing: "He also relied on this trick to defeat me when I was young. This is his trump card. It was revealed so early. Now that I have opened my trump card, I’m afraid it will be a little difficult to deal with next.”

Angel also agreed with Doakes's judgment.

Previously, when the ghost attacked from top to bottom, it obviously had some staying power. It's not that he doesn't dare to make a fatal blow, but he knows that with his ability, even if he hits Vai on the head with all his strength, there is a high probability that he will not be able to kill him.

The reason why he kept his strength was because Ghost Shadow was not focused on damage, but more on research and judgment.

Evaluate Vai's abilities.

Vai's trump card: rock transformation, was so easily tested by Ghost Shadow.

It can be said that after a close encounter, the gap in actual combat experience between Guiying and Vai was quite large.

However, Vai is not completely without a chance.

After all, Vai has another trump card: money ability.

As long as Vai's cash ability is enough to make up for the actual combat gap with Guiying, then he might not be able to turn his disadvantage into an advantage.
