Chapter 1848 Bullfighting Pit (Ⅰ)
"Oops! The green smoke from the pit wall may contain petrochemical toxins, everyone, stay away!"
The old bogman covered his mouth and nose, reminding his companions to avoid the slowly sinking poisonous gas.
Everyone hurriedly withdrew to the center of the pit, Klein, Scholz, Gumoduo and Robin Hood looked at each other in blank dismay, their hearts filled with a coldness of almost despair...
Joan was not afraid of petrochemical toxins, but in fact this turn of events surprised him.
In the scientific research field of "petrochemical effect", Qiao An is an expert no matter how modest he is. He felt that it was necessary to collect some green smoke and analyze the petrochemical toxins contained in it compared with the samples he had studied in his previous thesis. similarities and differences.
At this time, there was another change in the pit, and there were strange howls from all around, which sounded like a mooing cow, and scarlet spots lit up in the darkness.
Gumodo quickly blessed the oak stick with the "Daylight Art", and held the stick up high as a torch.
The magic radiance dispelled the darkness, and eight monsters that looked like bison but were bigger were faintly visible around them, encircling the area where everyone gathered.
The roaring of the cattle came one after another, their bloodshot eyes seemed to see the red cloth, their heads with sharp horns were shaking, their hoofs were stamping restlessly, and they might charge at any time.
Using the "Daylight" to illuminate, Joan found that these bull-shaped monsters had no manes on their bodies, and their bodies were covered with plate-shaped structures that fit together with purple metal. At first they looked more like copper constructs, but The investigation results of "Advanced Internal Vision" proved that his first impression was not reliable.
...

...
Petrochemical spit? !
Qiao An's heart moved, and he carefully observed the nearby monsters. Sure enough, he found a faint green smoke from his mouth and nose, which looked exactly the same as the petrochemical poisonous smoke seeping out of the pit wall just now.
It looks like a bison, a tall and ferocious magic beast, and can breathe petrified poisonous smoke. These elements are combined in Joan's mind, which reminds him of the petrified cow he saw in the "Silver Sky" of the star world.
Of course, there are not small differences between the two.
The petrified cow named "Caesar" raised by Ms. Dalia, the sheriff of Yinkong, is ten times larger than the monsters I saw in front of me. It is also smooth and hairless. The former is covered with tiny scales and has a steel blue color. , like wearing a suit of scale armor made of fine steel, while the latter seems to be wearing a suit of copper plate armor, which looks sharp and angular, and has a damage reduction ability equivalent to a constant "Stone Skin Art"-even Caesar can't. Possess this abnormal defense power!
From the point of view of physical attributes, the group of strange cows in front of them is far less strong than Caesar, but Caesar is a petrified cow that has evolved to the peak state after all, and ordinary petrified cows are not so strong and not so huge.
Excluding these particularities of Caesar, the difference between these bull-shaped monsters and petrified bulls is not that big.
"Damn it! Guys, I have to tell you some bad news, we've been surrounded by a large herd of copper bulls!" Kao Rui was confused, "I can get into the depths of the earth to avoid the spray of these mad bulls!" Petrochemical poisonous smoke, but what do you do?"
"Bronze bull?" Qiao An asked quickly, "Is this a subspecies of petrified bull?"
"To be precise, they are distant relatives of the petrified cattle that live in the surface world." Klein wiped the cold sweat from his forehead while explaining to Joan, "The copper bulls in the dark region love to swallow copper ore to aid in digestion. The body is rich in copper, which is excreted from the body surface through blood vessels and pores. Over time, it forms an armor-like copper shell. The defense is extremely strong. Ordinary weapons cannot penetrate this thick copper armor. In other respects, it is similar to ordinary petrified cattle. "
"Bronze bulls have the blood of the earth subspecies, so will they escape from the earth?" Gumoduo leaned over and asked.
"Most copper bulls can't, but it's hard to guarantee that there will be one or two copper bulls with outstanding talents who are good at diving. This is similar to the situation of rock spirits and stone giants."
Klein answered cautiously.
The old bogman laughed, patted Robin Hood on the shoulder and said, "Little devil, now you know why Chief Gouno warned the contestants not to go into the ground? If you leave us alone and run away alone, the group I'm afraid Tongniu won't let you go."
"Old toad, don't look down on people!" Kao Ruijing threw off Elder Gu's arm and shouted angrily, "I, Robin Hood, am not the kind of coward who abandons his companions and runs away!"
"Stop arguing, you two!" Scholz held the shotgun, his face livid, "The copper bull has a violent temper and will never tolerate other creatures invading its territory. Now they have surrounded them. If we don't hurry up and come up with countermeasures, Soon, they will be turned into stone statues by the poisonous smoke from these monsters!"
As if responding to Scholz's warning, the copper bulls approaching within a hundred feet of the crowd roared in unison, and spewed billowing green poisonous smoke from their mouths, polluting the surrounding area with a miasma of smoke.
Klein, Scholz, Gumoduo, and Robin Hood all held their breath, their faces losing color.
Qiao An knew very well that petrochemical poisonous smoke did not need to be inhaled into the body, and skin contact could still cause petrification. For this reason, he had already prepared to cast a spell, and chanted a spell before the poisonous smoke spread.
"Súré!"
A ring-shaped wind wall rose from the ground, enclosing Qiao An and the others in the wall, and the airflow whizzed around, blowing away the poisonous fumes of petrochemicals.
The "Advanced Wind Wall Technique" can only temporarily protect everyone from the poisonous smoke, but it cannot stop the fierce charge of the copper bull. Without any delay, Qiao An quickly took out a small metal cube from the storage bag and threw it under his feet. He waved his hands to urge his companions to retreat.
Klein, Scholz, Gumoduo, and Robin Hood followed Joan's instructions and retreated to the edge of the wind wall. Their eyes focused on the pure gold cube that was as big as a walnut and blue in black, with confusion in their eyes.
Joan himself also kept a sufficient distance from "Ozuli", and then silently recited the incantation, the small metal cube burst out with light, and with a roar, it instantly expanded into a 30-foot-high adamantine fortress!
"come on in!"
Joan opened the door of the folding fortress and called his companions to come in and take refuge.
After everyone entered the fortress, Joan chanted a mantra to close the gate.
Shortly thereafter, the eight copper bulls rushed through the wind wall and came to the fortress. They mooed violently and slammed their horns against the wall of the fortress.
At this time, Joan had led his companions to climb up to the roof of the fortress through the indoor stairs, and looked down from the crenel.
At first, they saw a herd of cows besieging the fortress. The horns of the bulls hit the wall, the metal and iron screamed, and sparks shot out. Klein and the others were worried that the horns would puncture the city wall. Until Joan explained that the whole body of the fortress was made of fine gold, and everyone was hanging in their throats. Only then did my heart fall back into my stomach.
