Chapter 58 There Really Is a Secret
Chapter 58 There really is a secret
This huge magic circle on the map must have a special purpose, and Julian happens to be a member of the Russian Protoss with a certain status. Even if he doesn't know the specific functions and uses of this magic circle, he must know some details of it, such as where to build something and so on. After all, such a large project definitely requires clerks like him to handle it.
Since only Julian has the hope to know the content now, we have to surrender Julian as soon as possible. The most direct way to surrender him now is to defeat him and let him break away from the Russian Protoss in accordance with the agreement.
When I re-entered the fog, Julian was still there nervously guarding against my surprise attack, but little did he know that I was never near him. Seeing Julian's nervous look, I decided to make him more nervous before taking action. With a gesture from me, a circle of death guards with wolf heads and human bodies suddenly appeared in the mist. Although they are not my summoned creatures, the Death Guards are the subordinates of Anubis after all, and their attributes are also biased towards the dark system. They can fully display their combat effectiveness in this evil fog.
Julian is now in a state of high tension. Although this state will cause his fatigue to increase rapidly, it can also greatly increase his sensory acuity. Just after the seemingly calm fog suddenly rolled up, Julian turned around with lightning speed and punched the death guard who rushed out in the stomach. Although the Death Guard summoned by me was very powerful, it could not compare with Zhengshen. This punch instantly blasted the Death Guard into a pile of black sand and scattered it on the ground. Julian was also stunned when he found out that his target had been scattered, but then he realized that something was wrong. He hurriedly turned around and stretched out his hands to catch the scimitar that a Death Guard was about to chop down, only to prevent him from doing so. What he thought was that just after he restrained the monster in front of him, five or six footsteps sounded from behind at the same time. Shocked, he quickly let go of the monster in front of him and rushed towards it from the side, trying to distance himself first to see clearly. What kind of enemies are they? But before he could rush over, more than a dozen of the same monsters surrounded him in front of them, frightening him to retreat quickly.
In fact, with Julian's combat power, he could just rush out of the Death Guard's encirclement without any care. Anyway, the Death Guard's combat power couldn't hurt him at all. But Julian had suffered a loss at the hands of Mira before, and Mira's strong performance left a psychological shadow on him. Now whenever he sees the creature I summoned, he will get used to thinking that it is sexual. It was a very powerful creature, so even though the Death Guard was far behind him, Julian still didn't dare to come forward and confront it head-on. To put it simply, he was frightened, and now he softens as soon as he sees my summoned creature.
Surrounded by a large group of Death Guards, Julian did not dare to charge now, and had no place to retreat. He could only carefully circle in circles without knowing what to do. However, although he didn't know what to do, I did.
While Julian was circling in panic, my demon pets had appeared in the nearby fog. This fog of death is a barrier for Julian, but it will not have any blocking effect on me and my magic pet, so we can see him clearly, but he can't see us.
As soon as I gave an order, the demon pets immediately started to move. First of all, Mira, who was extremely afraid of Julian, suddenly roared in the fog. Julian was shocked and turned around in the direction of Mira. However, just as he turned around, He suddenly heard a series of ringtones approaching quickly from a distance, which forced him to turn around again. However, after turning around this time, he still saw nothing. However, just after he turned around for the second time, Julian suddenly felt a bone-chilling chill spreading upward from his feet. However, the Russian protoss are naturally better at resisting freezing, so this layer of cold air did not cause him too much panic. However, less than a second after the cold air appeared, his body was suddenly knocked away by a huge force. Got out.
"Ugh..." The first thing Julian did after rolling several somersaults on the ground to stabilize his body was to look back to see what had attacked him, but he only saw a fog. . Not to mention the person who just attacked him, even the group of monsters that surrounded him before disappeared. Upon discovering this situation, Julian immediately concentrated his attention, and the divine power in his body spread out and began to replace his eyes to help him observe the surrounding environment. However, as soon as the divine power dispersed, all the hairs on Julian's body suddenly stood up, because in the area covered by his divine power, he actually discovered three creatures, and the most terrifying thing was One of them was actually lying on his back.
Julian's heart almost jumped out of his chest when he felt the creature on his back. Think about it, if you were walking fine and suddenly found yourself carrying someone on your back in the reflection of a shop window on the roadside, how would you react? Although Julian was not shopping, he was fighting. Theoretically, his alertness should be very high now, but even so, the enemies climbed onto his back, and he didn't even notice it. What kind of latent ability is this?
After discovering that he was carrying someone on his back, Julian's first reaction was to turn around suddenly and try to throw the person off his back. However, he couldn't get rid of the person after trying several times in a row. What was even more exaggerated was that he actually even had the person on his back. No one can feel it. In panic, Julian fiercely grabbed his back with his hands, and at the same time glanced back, only to be faced with a face with a strange sinister smile. "Ah!" Almost as soon as he saw that smiling face, Julian felt as if someone had hit him on the head with a hammer. His legs suddenly went weak and he almost fell to the ground. He was pretty sure it wasn't a scare, but a real mental attack. The extremely evil-looking woman on the back is obviously a master of the spiritual system, and her strength is extremely terrifying.
In any case, Julian can be considered an expert in combat. After discovering that he had been mentally attacked, instead of calming down, he first grabbed the smiling face behind him. Seeing that the opponent was able to withstand the psychic attack and still launch an attack, the demon had no choice but to jump off Julian's body, kick his feet on Julian's back, and his body floated up like a ball of gas. Then she gradually faded away and disappeared next to Julian. After a few seconds, her figure suddenly gathered and appeared again more than ten meters away.
"Spirit creature?" Julian had good sense at least. After seeing the demon's move, he immediately realized that the opponent was a creature similar to a ghost. That's why he didn't feel anything when someone climbed on his back before. However, now that I think about it carefully, I can see that it was not unfeeling. Just now, his health and magic value had dropped by a tenth. Originally, consuming one-tenth of the magic power was nothing. It was normal for magic power and health to be consumed quickly in high-intensity battles. However, Julian was surprised that he had not actually fought during this period of time. ah! To say that the health value has dropped, it is possible that it was reduced when being attacked by those monsters just now, but how is the magic power consumed? He doesn’t even have any skills! Thinking of this, Julian suddenly looked towards the demon again, and then he felt relieved. Since the ghost could climb up his back, it should naturally attack him secretly, but the other party did not take action. If the other party didn't want to attack him, then why did he climb on his back? Obviously, it wasn't that the other party didn't attack, but the attack method was rather weird. The disappeared life and magic power were probably absorbed by her.
Although he had figured out the problem, Julian did not relax at all. In fact, he became even more nervous. Three targets were scanned during the spread of divine power just now. One of them on his back has been driven off, but the other two are just a few meters away from him, but he has not noticed these two targets until now. Since these things can approach him silently, it means that they are all spirits, and Julian's biggest worry is that he is extremely bad at dealing with spirits. In fact, not only Julian, it can be said that the entire Russian protoss has relatively poor research on spiritual bodies. Just like the gods in each country have their own divine power systems, the gods in each country also have their own areas of expertise. For example, Anubis and the others have a thorough research on vitality, while China's Heavenly Court is better at energy conversion. What the Russian Protoss is best at is actually the magic crystal energy system and divine fighting skills. To put it bluntly, what the Russian Protoss is best at is the research of magic technology and close combat. They are not very good at other aspects.
Originally, Russia was considered a superpower, and its protoss should not be weak. However, in fact, the Russian protoss has never been able to defeat the protoss of China and other countries. The key problem is that the fighting method of the Russian protoss is too simple, and it is far inferior to the protoss of other countries. Flexible, apart from their fighting skills supported by divine power, they are almost useless, which is why they are so unknown in the international god world. Julian's fighting skills were pretty good before, but now he has a problem with his single skill. When he encountered three spirits, he didn't even know how to fight. It's not that he can't hurt spirits, but that he lacks effective means of observing spirits. Although the outward release of divine power can discover soul bodies, the divine power is not used to explore paths after all. He was 'forced' to have no choice just now. If he really kept using the outward release of divine power, his divine power would probably be destroyed soon. If you run out of money, you will definitely die by then.
"Ziri, are you just going to use these things to consume me to death?" Julian shouted in desperation.
"The agreement doesn't say that I have to fight you personally. I asked you at the beginning. You said there was nothing unfair. What do you want to say now?" This time I did not pretend to be a Death Guard. I spoke, but I spoke directly to Julian.
After hearing my voice, Julian's eyes flashed, and his whole body suddenly turned into a golden light and rushed towards the place where I just made the voice. After he ran through a short section of fog, he immediately found me standing in the fog. After seeing the target, Julian's speed suddenly increased again, but just after he accelerated, his feet stepped on three magic traps one after another. Julian realized something was wrong when he stepped on those traps, but it was impossible to stop at this speed, so he simply rushed over and fought with me for the last time, otherwise I would just disappear into the mystery again. In the fog, the ocean-like swarm of summoned creatures alone was enough to drown him. However, after stepping on those traps, Julian suddenly discovered that those were not offensive magic traps. He stepped on three traps in one go, but three rays of light flashed on his body.
The first blue light flashed, and Julian felt as if a huge mountain was suddenly placed on his back, and his whole body sank under the pressure. As the second flash of golden color flashed by, he suddenly felt that I seemed to have grown a lot bigger. The third black light flashed, and Julian's speed suddenly slowed down. He felt as if he had crashed into a ball of gel. The huge resistance required him to consume a huge amount of force every meter he moved forward.
Although he had three negative statuses on his body, Julian still rushed in front of me, but when he raised his fists and prepared to fight me, he was surprised to find that the enemy in front of him was more than a head taller than him. . As a Russian protoss, Julian also inherited the common characteristic of Russian creatures-big. Russians are all very tall, and the Russian gods are also huge. Julian was about 1.96 meters tall before, and he looked like an iron tower standing in front of me who was only 1.7 meters tall. However, now the size relationship between the two of us is completely reversed. Julian was surprised to find that he was only as high as my shoulders, making me look like a giant.
How can there be time to be distracted on the battlefield? Julian's mind was in a trance, and he immediately felt bad, but before he could react, a cold sword was already pressed against his throat.
"Are you surprised?" I asked with a smile when I saw Julian, who was pressed against me and unable to retreat. But Julian didn't answer me, he just raised his head and gave me a cold look. I didn't care about his lack of cooperation, but said to myself: "If you want to know the reason, you will understand if you look down at your feet."
Although it didn't answer my question, it's impossible not to be curious. Julian finally looked down. Anyway, he was about to be restrained now, and he was not afraid of me attacking him again. However, this sight almost made his jaw drop in shock. There is nothing strange on the ground under our feet, just the most common weeds and fallen leaves in the forest. However, now Julian was surprised to find that half of his legs were covered in weeds.
It is normal for the grass to grow deeper in this kind of forest without people, but Julian has been standing here for a long time before, so he naturally knows how deep the grass here is. The weeds that originally only reached half of his calf were now up to his knees. Under normal circumstances, grass will not grow so fast, and I can't be bored and use magic to cause the grass to grow crazily. So, if there is no problem with the grass, the only remaining reason is that it has become smaller.
"Hey, do you know what this spell is called?" Looking at Julian with a surprised look on his face, I said proudly: "This is the most famous Great Transformation Spell, but our guild's Spell Research Center has improved it. No. Turn the enemy into a sheep, but make the opponent smaller. The same spell does not change the shape of the target, but only reduces the size. The consumption will be much lower, and the success rate will also rise sharply. I was a little worried that this skill would not be effective against the gods. , but your selfless dedication has proved that our spells are also useful on the Protoss. How about it? Our guild has strong spell research capabilities, right? If you join our guild in the future, you will definitely not be worse than in the Russian Protoss. .At least our fighting method will not be as narrow as the Russian Protoss. If you join our guild, I can let them teach you Chinese magic and magic, and I guarantee that your strength will be doubled in a few days. .”
After hearing what I said, Julian looked down at his legs that were submerged in the grass. Apparently the spell hadn't ended yet. His body was already smaller than before. If he kept shrinking like this for a while, he would become Ants. After hesitating for a long time, Julian finally sighed helplessly, then slumped to the ground and said: "You win!"
While Julian surrendered, a system prompt suddenly rang in my mind: "Congratulations to the Frost Rose Alliance, the senior protoss Julian has officially transferred to your guild. The protoss to which the guild belongs is prohibited from leaving the guild's sphere of influence without special permission. , the forced transmission will begin in thirty seconds."
"What? Forced teleportation? No!" Originally, I was still excited that our guild got a powerful thug. When I heard this prompt, I quickly picked up Julian from the ground and shouted at him: "Hey, tell me what's going on with the magic circle on that map?"
"What magic circle?" Julian obviously didn't understand the situation. I don't know whether he didn't know about the magic circle at all or he was still in a depressed state and didn't pay attention to what I said.
Perhaps knowing that I couldn't explain clearly in my hurry, Ling quickly brought the map over for me, spread it out in front of Julian, pointed at the magic circle frame she drew, and asked, "What is this?"
Julian looked at the map carefully first, and then asked in surprise: "Where did you get this map? Did you mark these cities yourself? Are you sure the locations are correct?"
"Hey, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you now. Please tell me first what exactly is built in the city above? What is this magic circle for?"
"I don't know." Julian's answer was as concise as possible, but the answer was completely different from what I thought.
"you do not know?"
"Please, I'm just a thug, and I'm not the main god. Even if they have any plans, there's no need to report them to me, right?"
"Eh...!" It seems that this is really the case. Just like when Matsumoto Masahiro joined our guild, didn't I also hide it from most people in the guild? The Russian protoss are not stupid, and of course they hide many things from their subordinates. This is normal.
While I was feeling depressed, Julian suddenly said: "Although I don't know what that magic circle is for, I know that what you are looking for is under the ground of these twelve cities. I was ordered to supervise the One of the underground facilities has been built, and it should be similar in several other cities. Since you can guess such a large magic circle based on a map, as long as you enter..." As soon as Julian said this, his whole body suddenly changed. Gone. It seems that only the main system can achieve such lightning transmission.
"What should we do if we are gone?" Ling looked at me and asked.
