Chapter 958: Hair of the Snake Mother
As for the unlucky Harrow Finsen, he was already in danger under Li Shuyi's double swords.
As for other snake-man aberrations, they were also quickly cleaned up, and no snake-man could come to support this snake-man polymath.
Bai Xiaowen's joining made it even more difficult for Halofensson to support him, and he quickly knocked the guy to the ground and tied him with a rope. Queen Camelot also affixed a special magical confinement rune on Harrow Finson's body. This confinement rune is enough to last for 48 hours.
Of course, this kind of imprisoning rune props will only take effect on targets who have lost the ability to resist, and it is useless to secretly paste them in a combat state.
"Xiaowen, let's go after him too!"
Li Shuyi said excitedly, "The snake mother, Gaglia, is also a lord. Take this rare opportunity to kill her! There are so many snake girl bosses, these are all treasure chests."
Bai Xiaowen hummed: "I hope it can be as you wish. But I always feel that the snake mother retreated too decisively."
Although the two talked like this, they didn't stop on their feet.
The orcs chased ahead, Camelot's mages followed, and Bai Xiaowen was the third group to follow.
After passing through the gap between the two rock walls, the sight in front of me is wide. However, Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi stopped suddenly.
Not only the two of them, but even the Camelot mages in front stopped.
The orc leaders chasing at the front have turned into a group of stone sculptures! There was still a look of shock and panic on their faces.
"What's going on?" Bai Xiaowen said.
Queen Camelot said: "I didn't see the whole process, but it seems that I should have been enchanted by the petrification magic of the snake mother Gagrila. It is said that Medusa exists among the snake women. Anyone who looks directly at her It's true that anyone with hair will be petrified."
After a pause, Queen Camelot said: "These stupid orcs have been tricked and lost the group of snake girls. We can't rush to get closer."
Bai Xiaowen smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, you don't look nervous at all, is that okay? Chief Kamush and the others should be fine."
As he said that, Bai Xiaowen threw an insight into one of the stone sculptures, King Kamush.
Queen Camelot looked indifferent: "The life and death of these orcs has nothing to do with me, I will not take the opportunity to destroy them, it is completely bound by the oath..."
A bead of sweat appeared on the back of Bai Xiaowen's head.
Fortunately, insight has given feedback. To Bai Xiaowen's relief, King Kamush is still alive, but he has fallen into a petrified state called "Hair of the Snake Mother".
[Snake Mother's Hair: petrified state, unable to move, attack or cast spells, lasts for 5 minutes, currently remaining: 214 seconds. In this state, it will be immune to any non-real damage with a priority of 7 or less, and cannot be moved. 】
"Phew, it seems that the petrification magic of the hair of the snake mother only temporarily freezes the action ability of the recruited... But King Kamush and the others cannot be attacked, so this ability is not so against the sky."
It's right to think about it, King Kamush is close to a lord-level existence, and the orc leader around him is also a top master. It's impossible to be hit by a group spell, and it's impossible, even if the snake mother Gagrila is a mage-type lord, it's impossible.
The ability to freeze action for 5 minutes in the petrified state is already very powerful. In this state, it is immune to all damage except real damage, which is also a balance of the rules of the spirit world for this skill. Otherwise, if you are charged for five minutes, even if the soldiers come up and kill each person with one knife, they will be hacked to death.
"This move of the Snake Mother...the activation conditions should be relatively harsh, or it may take a long time to prepare," Bai Xiaowen pondered for a while, "Otherwise, they don't have to give up on Halofensson, and they can directly attack us when they encounter us. Launch this move, petrify most of our strength and take Harrow Finsen away."
"Well, that's the reason." Queen Camelot thought about it seriously, "Should we continue to chase, or wait for these orcs to wake up?"
"Don't chase, the main goal of this operation has been achieved."
Bai Xiaowen squinted his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
Soon, the orcs woke up. When it comes to being recruited, this group of rough men all have expressions of anger and fear.
According to the poor language skills of the orcs, when they were chasing, they were about to catch up with the severed snake mother. Unexpectedly, the hair on the back of the opponent's head came alive like a group of poisonous snakes, and the eyes of each snake's head radiated viciousness. red light. After seeing the red light, everyone felt their bodies were heavy, as if they were filled with lead, and their moving speed became slower and slower.
In the end, they were completely petrified, and even their thinking froze, and there was a blank period of several minutes-of course, for the orcs in the petrified state, it was only a moment.
A group of people walked back to the vicinity of the pillars of the earth's veins.
Looking at the towering crystal pillar, King Kamush felt a little bit emotional: "If you didn't see it with your own eyes, who would have imagined that the great Gagul Plateau is supported by this giant pillar."
"Our human prophet wanted it." Queen Camelot snorted softly.
"cut."
King Kamush's attitude towards the queen still did not ease, but when he looked at Bai Xiaowen again, his face softened a lot.
"Master Prophet, you are not only a prophet of human beings, but also a prophet of all races in the whole continent! Thank you for finding the leyline corridor of the Jugul Plateau. If it weren't for you... we might have waited until the big earthquake happened and the sea water poured back into it." For a moment, still kept in the dark."
Bai Xiaowen said with a smile: "This is my mission, Your Excellency the Great Chief. You don't have to thank me, after all, the Beastman Kingdom paid me a satisfactory reward for this survey."
Bai Xiaowen's words are also intended to remind Kamushi not to forget the deal between them...
In fact, Bai Xiaowen did too much. King Kamush laughed loudly and promised to hand over the mother of the wolf to Bai Xiaowen to fulfill his promise.
The other orcs were also very grateful to Bai Xiaowen.
Originally, some of them were quite critical of Bai Xiaowen - after all, Bai Xiaowen had done a lot of things in the orc kingdom in the past few days. Based on the sense of honor, many of these orcs sympathized with the existence of the Shadowblade clan.
But now, Bai Xiaowen foiled the snake man's conspiracy and kept the leyline corridor and leyline pillars of the Gagulie Plateau, which has completely wiped out the previous discord between the orcs.
Finally, he looked around the corridor of the earth veins. King Kamush arranged for the dozen orc leaders to lead the elite warriors of the orcs to be on duty here in shifts. Bai Xiaowen, Li Shuyi, Queen Camelot and the mage group took white eagles and griffins respectively to escort the captives back to Redstone City.
