Chapter 1767 Activation Mantra
boom! boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!
Joan emptied the magazine in one breath, and the six enchanted lead bullets screamed through the air, tearing apart the flexible pudding-like body of the black slime, and embedded them deeply in the body. The mucus gushing out from the gun wound was like pitch black plasma.
The black slime has a vitality of up to 20 energy levels, and its physique is quite strong. It will not endanger life if it is shot six times, but its concentration on casting spells is interrupted, and the supergravity field dissolves with the sound of gunshots.
Joan's shadowy soul maintains a subtle spiritual link with the physical body.
How the gravity changes, the ghost without weight has no feeling, but Joan can feel the weight off the body, and the breathing and heartbeat have returned to normal.
In this case, he can dispel the "soul separation technique", and the soul returns to the body that has escaped danger.
But why return to the physical body?
Joan felt that maintaining the current shadow form would be more conducive to fighting against black slime.
Thinking of this, Joan reloaded the pistol.
At the same time, the black slime on the opposite side had already bounced and rushed over, brandishing a pair of pseudo-legs, and angrily swat the young mage who had turned into a shadow.
Joan fired two shots first, and found that the impact of the lead bullets could not repel the huge mud monster, so he drifted backwards, passed through the wall behind him without hindrance, and returned to the hall on the first floor of the castle—in the "incorporeal body" The shadow in the form can penetrate all physical obstacles without the use of "wall penetration".
The black slime doesn't have the ability to penetrate walls, so he had to go back to the first floor through the gate of the castle. When he looked around, he found the shadow of the little mage quietly sticking to the wall, pointing a gun at himself, and he couldn't help but be taken aback.
At the moment when it was dazed, Joan shot two bullets, adding two more wounds to its body, and when the black slime chased after it angrily, Joan came out lightly through the wall and disappeared from its sight without a trace.
The black slime was so angry that he had to turn around and rush to the gate of the castle. Looking out, he found that Joan was standing against the wall, waiting for a gun. When he saw it protruding, he immediately pulled the trigger.
The black slime learned a lesson after suffering a loss, and retracted into the door in time, narrowly dodging the whistling bullet.
After successfully evading a gunshot, the black slime was a little happy. He deliberately poked his head out to lure the little mage to shoot. Before the opponent pulled the trigger, he retracted like lightning, and successfully dodged the bullet again without any injuries.
"Yo oh!"
The black slime jumped for joy, then probed out to seduce the little mage to shoot. Noticing that the opponent was loading a bullet, he raised his pseudo-leg like a middle finger and stuck out his tongue at him to make a face:
"Slightly slightly slightly slightly~~"
Joan saw that it was provocative, so he couldn't help being angry and funny, closed the magazine, raised the gun suddenly, but didn't really fire, and after tricking the black slime to shrink his head, he also chased through the wall into the castle hall, just in time with it They looked at each other.
"Wow!"
The black slime didn't expect the cunning little mage to feint, screamed in fright, and jumped back.
Joan raised his gun and fired, blasting it to splash the slurry, and fell out of the door tumbling all the way.
The black slime bounced up in embarrassment, shaking the plump body covered with gunshot wounds, squeezing out the bullets embedded in the body, and clanging to the ground.
Joan came out through the wall without a sound. He thought that the black slime was eager for revenge after suffering a loss, and would approach him like before. Unexpectedly, this guy suddenly had an IQ on the line, ignored his shadow clone, and turned his head to pounce. Flesh lying on the ground not far away.
Now Joan could no longer continue the "flying a kite" tactic, so he had to put away his pistol and float in the air, intercepting the black slime before it attacked his body.
When the black slime saw the little mage himself coming to the door, he was so excited that he clenched his pseudo-legs into fists, and rushed forward to beat wildly with the desire of revenge.
Of course, Joan would not let it beat him. He raised his right hand and stabbed at the black slime, injecting a cold negative energy into it.
Shadow's contact attack, in addition to causing 2 levels of negative energy "necrosis" damage, also has the special effect of absorbing 3 points of the creature's strength attribute, which is actually more lethal than Joan's enchanted pistol. Take the risk of being beaten.
Fortunately, Joan's incorporeal form is difficult to be hit by physical attacks. The pseudolegs of the black slime are equivalent to magic weapons. Even so, there is at least a 50% chance of penetrating the shadow and the attack will miss.
In fact, it's good that the black slime can't hit Joan. If the attack hits, there is a 7/8 chance of hitting Joan's mirror image.
The moment the mirror image was attacked, it exploded automatically, and the erupted arc was like a flashing whip, slamming the black slime hard.
The poor black slime was really unlucky. He touched Joan five times in total, but four of them hit the mirror image clone. He took 8 levels of retaliatory electric shocks, plus the accumulated gunshot wounds before. Counting the negative energy necrotic damage injected into the body by Joan's hands during the fight, what's more terrible is that the strength attribute was almost sucked up by Joan, and finally became weak to the point where he lost the strength to escape, and collapsed on the ground dying. , a pair of big eyes filled with tears.
Joan saw that it was powerless to resist, so he suspended the attack. His soul returned to his body, and he used advanced inner vision to check the details of this black slime.

"So this guy is the legendary 'Activation Spell'." Joan looked at the black slime with a hint of surprise.
The "activation" spells that Joan has come into contact with include "activation rope", "activation shield", "activation weapon", and the more universal "secondary item activation" and "item activation".
Using these methods, spellcasters can animate various inanimate objects into temporary constructs. However, "Less Animate Item" and "Animate Item" have a common limitation - they cannot be used to animate magic items.
Joan once imagined that when the ability to cast spells reached a certain level in the future, he would try to develop an advanced version of the 5-ring "item activation technique" so that it could also work on magic items.
This idea is indeed interesting, but compared with those senior mages with big brains in history, Joan has to bow down.
Before he saw creatures like "activation spells" in the literature, he never thought that even "magic" itself could be activated, and the creatures turned into after activation were not classified as "constructs". The classification turned out to be "mud-shaped monster"!
