Chapter 1155: Ice Barrier Colossus (Ⅰ)

The entire body of this huge construct is made of solid ice, which is slightly blue under the sunlight, like a cold silver fortress.

Joan held back his fear and flew towards the ice giant, observing the mythical construct up close.

The body and limbs of the Ice Barrier Colossus present an obvious human-shaped outline, and the sharp-edged lines give people a cold impression. Walking among the mountains, it looks like a frost giant that has grown a hundred times.

According to Qiao An's visual inspection, the "Ice Barrier Colossus" is 60 feet tall, with a square torso section, and the length and width are about 45 feet. Taking into account the metal parts and hollow devices inside the colossus, a simple calculation can be obtained. , the overall weight of the colossus is about 5,000 tons.

Joan also noticed that the ice giant statue was walking in the sun, and the cold air from its body spread out, causing the temperature in the surrounding miles to drop sharply. The rivers where it passed were frozen, and its huge body was exposed to the scorching sun. , but did not show the slightest sign of melting.

It can be seen that some kind of magic is blessed on the colossus to keep the body temperature below freezing.

In addition, Joan was convinced that the ice colossus must be enchanted with some kind of spell to reduce the weight, otherwise walking on the muddy grass would not only cause the earth to tremble and leave footprints several feet deep—5000 tons Its own weight is enough to sink this behemoth into the mud, making it impossible to move around at all!

Joan was about a thousand yards away from the Ice Barrier Colossus at the moment, and it was difficult to see the detailed structure of the Colossus under the obstruction of the white cold fog.

He really wanted to continue to approach the Ice Barrage Colossus for a more detailed investigation, but considering the huge risks that accompanied this behavior, he decided to send a letter to the people of Elk Town to call the police before approaching the investigation, so as to avoid follow-up investigation Mishaps happened during the period - for example, he was slapped to death by the ice giant statue before he could issue a warning.

Joan hurriedly made a spell-casting gesture, and issued a "wind spell" to Captain Stone, briefly describing what he saw in front of him.

Watching the golden whirlwind flying in the direction of Elk Town, Joan let go of his worries, and then turned around and flew towards the giant ice statue that came across the mountains.

Joan held his breath, and carefully approached the Ice Colossus under the protection of the "Invisibility Technique". At the same time, he activated the "Advanced Internal Vision Technique" to spy on the details of the "Ice Colossus".

He dared to do this and was not afraid of arousing the vigilance of the "Ice Colossus", not only because of his audacity, but his confidence came from his understanding of the mythical construct of the "Ice Colossus". If Master Vavrunil's records do not deviate too much from the facts, then the intelligence and perception attributes of the "Ice Barrier Colossus" are not high, and the chances of resisting the "Advanced Internal Vision" and becoming alert are not high.

Inspired by curiosity, Joan was willing to take the risk and try it out, which made him secretly relieved.

Thanks to Goddess of Destiny for blessing!

Joan's adventurous investigation was a great success, and did not arouse the vigilance of the "Ice Colossus".

...

Reconnaissance target: giant legendary mythical construct "Ice Colossus" (colossus subspecies, mythic subspecies, cold subspecies)

Attributes: Strength 50, Dexterity 9, Constitution -, Intelligence 5, Wisdom 12, Charisma 19

Abilities: Magic Sensor, Legendary Armor, Shapeshifting, Ice Master, Ice Trampling; Mythic Power, Mythic Fortitude, Mythic Instant, Mythic Power, Teleportation; Selective Mythic Anti-Magic Field (not activated) ;

...

Rows of investigation data flashed through his mind. Joan was first awed by the strength attribute of "Ice Colossus" as high as 50, and then turned his attention to its ability column - which included both special abilities and "supernatural abilities". Ability" and "Mythical Ability".

After all, "Advanced Internal Vision" is only a level 2 spell, and its energy level is too low. It is not easy to detect the names of special abilities, and it is impossible to show the specific uses of these abilities.

Fortunately, Joan only needs to know the name.

The relevant chapters about "Mythical Colossus" in "Golem Research Notes" quickly flashed through his mind. By comparing the ability name of "Ice Barrier Colossus", Joan was able to retrieve the specific function of this ability from the book.

The first thing that caught his attention was the creature type of "Ice Colossus".

The "giant construct" is completely in line with its huge image. The "Colossus subspecies" and "Mythical subspecies" are also clear at a glance. The "cold subspecies" is worthy of further exploration.

As we all know, creatures of the cold subspecies all have two diametrically opposed characteristics-immunity to cold damage and fear of fire at the same time.

As a "cold subspecies" construct, the "Ice Barrier Colossus" also has the weakness of fearing fire in theory, so is it possible to use fire spells to inflict heavy damage on it?

This thought excited Joan for two seconds, but when he noticed that the "Ice Colossus" also had a special ability called "Selective Mythical Anti-Magic Field", his heart suddenly turned cold.

"Selective mythic anti-magic field", regardless of complicated prefixes, the core function is similar to the arcane "anti-magic field" of the 8-ring protection system.

The spell "anti-magic field" is very magical. Once it is activated, it will repel the magic net threads in the space covered by the spell, and form a partial "magic-free space" inside the force field. In the special case of crossing multidimensional space, other magical or supernatural effects will be suppressed by the "anti-magic field" and cannot exert their due effects.

After understanding the basic functions of the "anti-magic field", let's examine the prefix of the "selective mythic anti-magic field".

The prefix "myth" indicates that it has been optimized on the basis of the 8th ring "anti-magic field", making it a mythical spell.

Just like the mythical spells invented by Joan, the "Mythical Anti-Magic Field" has added some additional functions on the basis of the original version, such as wider coverage and longer duration. "This ability has not been activated yet, and Joan has no way of knowing.

The prefix "selective" is better understood.

The conventional "anti-magic field" treats spells and supernatural abilities of all attributes and factions equally, and blocks them all.

The "selective anti-magic field" is more flexible, providing an "exemption list", which allows for certain types of spells and supernatural abilities, and can function normally inside the anti-magic field.

According to the description of the "Ice Colossus" in "Golem Research Notes", coupled with personal observations, Joan speculates that the "Ice Colossus" is probably immune to all "ice" magic and supernatural abilities.

Because this colossus itself has a lot of ice abilities, when formulating the "anti-magic field" immunity rules, it should give priority to its own interests, and try to minimize the losses it suffers in the "anti-magic field".

P.S "Anti-Magic Field" adopts dnd5 version settings.
