Invincible Chapter 237
Paris, the capital of the dead, has more than 6 million corpses.
The most important "import of additions" occurred in 1786, when the plague broke out in Paris. In order to solve the shortage of cemeteries and public health problems, people transferred the bones buried in all cemeteries in the urban area to this place.
Earlier, it was an underground limestone quarry, and the stones of famous buildings such as Notre Dame de Paris and the Louvre mainly came from here.
It is 300 kilometers long, but only 2 kilometers are really for people to visit. They are all sorted out. Although the senses are shocking, the minimum order will make people feel solemn and dignified.
In other areas, this is not the case.
It is an exaggeration to say that the road taken by Kane and his party is paved with bones, but it is an indisputable fact that the pits and corners along the way are piled up everywhere.
And the sensory impression is also extremely poor, messy, gloomy, monotonous, depressing, and watching too much makes people feel an indescribable sense of horror.
The area that used to be the hub of the quarry has since become a burial hall one by one, and the real bones are piled up in mountains.
Kane and his party arrived in such a hall.
The thick black mist swirls and disturbs, like a vortex in the sea, but in fact there is not much real weight, like silk gauze, revealing lightness, and occasionally you can see numerous bones appearing in the hall, giving people the feeling that the entire hall is a shop of bones Just, including the walls and ceiling.
There is no doubt that this is definitely a weird thing, especially the top wall, which is very expensive.
As a contractor of the dark force, Kane is not blinded by the darkness and can clearly perceive the situation here. He can say responsibly that this hall is very elaborate, and it will take at least three years to build it manually.
"I've been prepared for a long time, no wonder I speak wild words."
When Kane analyzed it, the guards in the center of the bone burial hall had already launched an attack.
Countless talismans flashing black light fell from the top wall, rose from the ground, and then caught two by two in the vortex-like black mist, forming fiercely shining light clusters, which shot towards Kai like magic bullets. En and his party flew towards them, so dense that there was no possibility of completely dodging them.
However, such a blow could not go beyond the barrier of light formed by Maria's magic lamp.
When the burning light clusters touch the outer edge formed by the light, there will be a sharp drop in power,
Afterwards, like red iron submerged in water, the color soon dimmed and dissipated in the process of rushing.
A wave of strikes with thousands of bullets ended in failure. The person who controlled the bone magic circle was not discouraged, but became more irritable. It cursed: "Facing the endless stream of dark lightning balls, I want to see if you can do it!" Block a few waves."
One relies on geographical advantages to save, and the other relies on personal savings. The latter can't block a few rounds, but it doesn't need to block a few rounds.
The Sigma werewolf was already operating swiftly under Kane's command.
These werewolves looked big and rough, but they definitely had the qualifications of technical sergeants. Switching to humans, their majors are the kind of talents who have the unity of knowledge and action enough to get a doctorate certificate and have good practical experience.
This is one of the great benefits of growing slowly. Those who simply rely on indoctrination to master technology do not have the ability to learn and use them flexibly.
The equipment parts were removed from the giant mastiff golem, and after assembly, it turned out to be a very large anti-tank rifle with a large bracket. In fact, let alone a chariot, this gun can shoot down attack aircraft flying at low altitude.
'Om! ’ In the electrical sound, the charging is complete.
Continuous irradiation begins, followed by projectiles. The projectile flies in the energy tube formed by the irradiation, without being hindered by any external force, including extraordinary force. Of course, if the extraordinary power of the interference exceeds the isolation threshold of the energy lumen, it will still affect the power and hit of the bullet.
The array operator in front of him obviously didn't have this ability, he faintly felt that something was wrong, and the moment he was irradiated, he did his best to protect it.
But it's useless, whether it's bone shields, energy shields, or the force field of the magic circle, they are not enough to deal with this kind of compound attack.
Brute force casting + scientific violence, there are laser technology, electromagnetic rail gun technology, magic technology, alchemy technology, such as the special bullet.
Kane's swarm system has a hidden feature, that is, it never blindly worships magic.
No matter when and where, as long as there are conditions, within his non-combat system, he will start a horizontal comparison of science and magic, which is more effective and cost-effective, is it an enchanted cold weapon or a musket.
These comparisons need to be based on the current natural environment characteristics of the world and the background of civilization, and can be divided into short-term and long-term.
Like in this world, if Kane was on a short-term mission in this world, he would not build Menzoberranzan City, but instead go all out to strengthen the mind control magic, spreading hypnotism, charm, fascination, and brain control all the way. .
First control the officers by beheading, then brainwash the soldiers, and then the official institutions... In terms of weapons, the hot weapons of this world are the main ones. Fight a magically changed world war.
Long-term development is another way. After all, he has enough technical reserves. As long as he operates properly, his system will completely exceed the ceiling of existing civilizations, and it is not impossible to build space battleships.
This flexible application of magic and technology, and the practice of shifting the focus at any time according to needs are also reflected in the details. Like this time, Menzoberranzan has silently climbed the technology tree, and has completed the new extraordinary energy encapsulation technology (mainly from Guangmin's energy crystal technology), coupled with the previously completed new material technology, the legendary Terminator has If it can be made, it becomes the main weapon.
This kind of weapon can be said to have the possibility of killing everyone below the sanctuary, so it has the reputation of "legendary terminator".
A domineering blow, unless it is aimed at the moment to escape, or there are very special means, such as the intervention of the law of the sanctuary and above (changing the environment or material attributes), otherwise once the shot is fired, there will inevitably be a terrible result .
The master of the Bone Formation still had a lot of tricks before he was beaten to the head, and even a part of the torso below the neck was implicated and smashed to pieces. His death was tragic, and even the surrogate death pendant failed to save him.
Once the host dies, although the magic circle is still in basic operation, there is no change, and it will be cracked soon.
After a while, the magic circle was erased, and a new magic circle was established and started to operate.
The function of this magic circle is much simpler. It is to constantly absorb and transform dark energy.
When Kane summoned the Death Star for the first time, he wanted to come to the capital of the undead to operate. Later, he was worried that there would be too much movement and be surrounded, so he chose Bermuda. He can't have too much extraordinary energy.
The magic circle was set up, leaving a Sigma werewolf to guard, and the team continued to move forward.
At this time, what appeared in front of Kane and his party was a tunnel extending in all directions. Although the French Ministry of Magic provided some picture clues that looked like the main ceremony hall, Kane did not believe that the French wizards could respond in a hurry. In the background, find the main ceremony hall directly from the complex of tunnels.
Regarding this point, he had already debated with those wizards on the way here, which is why he ended up in Montmartre instead of the hottest District 4.
When he led the team to win the bone circle, he insisted on his own experience and judgment more and more:
The opening of the gates of hell in the capital of the undead was not an emergency revenge operation by the Blood God Cult after three strongholds were destroyed, but a project that had been operating secretly for a long time.
This project didn't break out until this moment, and the ghosts and malfeasance involved were more than one or two, one or two.
Because of this, he will not believe information that is easily obtained, it is tantamount to being led by the nose. What's more, one of the advantages of our own side is the large number of people, and there is no shortage of action troops in the 4th district.
Of course, Kane cannot guarantee that he is on the right path. Thinking in another way, if he is a project planner, he will try his best to plan such an effect:
No matter which route the opponent advances from, it will be too late when they finally arrive.
The gates of hell are opened, and the devils are constantly coming out, then this battle will really be fought.
How to deal with this kind of operation that is extremely well prepared and takes the absolute lead?
The way Kane thought of it was to draw salary from the bottom of the pot.
Opening the gates of hell is a real energy-consuming project. If I cut off your electricity, I'll see how you can finish it on schedule.
So his specific operation is to pick up important nodes along the way to attack. There are five important nodes in Montmartre, two of which involve connecting with other districts, which is the most outlier in comparison. The other districts are extremely entangled, with at least four connected nodes.
His strategy this time is to be short, smooth and fast, and quickly stop the functions of the Montmartre Heights, so the opening of the gate of hell will inevitably be delayed. This is the effective operation he recognizes.
As for casualties, let's put it this way, since you dare to come to the capital of the undead to play Hell's Gate, whether it is the Blood God Sect or the Secret Key Society, I am afraid that they are already mentally prepared for heavy casualties. Of course, there are games such as waiting for work and hide-and-seek. .
So Kane didn't pursue killing and killing the living power, but was rushing to cut off the power.
After controlling a small node along the way, Kane and his party continued on the road.
This time the road was not smooth. There are blockers.
Kane asked Maria to pull down and push himself up.
Maria is now the most powerful thug in the team, and her strength must be reserved for critical moments.
In the first stage of the journey, because I didn't know how the opponent played and needed to open up the situation as soon as possible, I let Maria top the whole journey, and now I don't need it.
Soul projection + clone, the current Kane is at the level of Snape in terms of mental power, magic power and other comprehensive levels. In the circle of wizards, it can be regarded as first-class, but if it is outside the circle, it is nothing.
Many extraordinary creatures have far more powerful spellcasting abilities than humans and higher affinity for magic power and elements, and can even fight ten out of one. But on the whole, these extraordinary creatures have fatal shortcomings compared with humans. For example, the absolute number is poor, reproduction is not easy, the growth cycle is too long, and so on.
And today's encounter is also not something that wizards can easily hold. If Kane relies on the spellcasting ability of HP wizards, he is really not good enough to be a pathfinder.
Fortunately, he is still a contractor of the dark force, and the environment here has a strength bonus of more than 300% for him. Just the strong power of darkness can keep him in a supernatural state of "four or two strokes of a thousand catties" all the time.
Kane is the one who opens the way and also carries the magic lamp.
Like the one in Maria's hand, it is a mass-produced magic weapon.
Although it is mass-produced, the performance is still higher than that of ordinary high-quality instruments. What is lacking is the uniqueness caused by growth, passion, flashes of inspiration, and coincidences.
All magic tools of the rarity level and above have these two important characteristics. First, when they are manufactured, there are many extraordinary factors that make them unrepeatable items, and second, their subsequent growth is good.
Without these two items, no matter how subtle it is, it cannot escape the category of 'ordinary'. Of course, the functionality and practicality may not be much worse than Journey to the West.
In the hands of Kane, the magic lamp is like a peculiar filter. All the oncoming energy is concentrated and absorbed, and then a cone-shaped energy stream is released from the opposite direction. The energy of this stream is far weaker than that created by Maria. The energy similar to the light tail of a comet, the people following behind can even only perceive a faint trace.
However, the essential difference between Kane and Maria's operations is that Maria is confronting and persecuting, while Kane is absorbing and converting.
He is like a scavenger, where there is basically no negative energy that can harm people.
If it was only like this, people would not be able to experience the horror from the force, until those evil spirits blocking the way came out, and people would not see what the king of darkness is.
