Chapter 239: Divide and Annihilate
Now this metal maze full of steel thorns is the terrain I specially prepared for Yamata no Orochi in the near-end of the world. This design was only thought of after I was inspired by Taishang Laojun in Tushita Palace.
At first, I just thought that the Yamata no Orochi's attributes were fire and earth, so I designed an image of the depths of the sea. Water can overcome fire, and the deep sea is filled with water elements up, down, left, and right, so the earth element he relies on no longer exists. Such an environment is quite difficult for Yamata no Orochi, because not only does he not have the same things he is good at, but there are also disadvantages.
However, my design was ultimately rejected by Taishang Laojun, and the reason is that for powerful men like Yamata no Orochi who have reached the god level, attribute restraint actually does not have much impact on them. Because of this reason, the water world I originally designed actually had very little restrictive effect on Yamata no Orochi, and I myself was also partially affected. In this case, Yamata no Orochi's combat effectiveness would not decrease much, and I would also suffer a slight decrease. Decline, in comparison, the actual impact of that scene on the combat effectiveness of both of us is almost negligible.
Precisely because the water world scene was ultimately judged to have poor effects, under the guidance of Taishang Laojun, I reset the world so close to the end of the world, and what I ended up with was this hell of steel needles.
The Steel Needle Hell we are in now is a map developed specifically for the characteristics of Yamata no Orochi. As a god, Yamata no Orochi is also a beast-shaped creature, so there is a significant difference between him and ordinary humanoid gods, that is, he actually has two forms, one is human form and the other is beast form. Because they are beast-shaped creatures, even if they enter the stage of gods, these beast gods cannot fully exert their strength in human form. Therefore, we often see those high-level humanoid monsters or monsters that immediately reveal their true form and fight again as soon as they cannot defeat them. This is because for them, the original form is actually the strongest state.
The purpose of the steel needle hell I designed is actually to limit the beast-like form of Yamata no Orochi, because there are obstacles everywhere, and except for the ground, all obstacles have steel needles more than one meter long on the surface. This kind of environment is not a big problem for human-sized creatures. Anyway, the width of the passage here is more than ten meters. Be careful not to hit the steel spikes. However, although humanoid creatures can move normally here, for those big guys. This structure is very problematic. After the Yamata no Orochi returns to its original form, it will immediately hit the surrounding steel thorns, and while it is still motionless, once it moves, it will be like walking naked through a thorn bush, and it will have to scrape off all the skin on its body. . certainly. As long as the movement speed is not fast, and the head is lowered, and the body is curled up as much as possible, the Yamata no Orochi can also move here. However, he was not here for tourism. Although he still didn't know where he had gone, he at least knew that there were definitely enemies here. So Yamata no Orochi also understands. There is no way to use the main body to fight here, otherwise the enemy does not have to fight him. As long as he keeps leading him in circles, he himself will be covered with injuries.
Originally it was just an ordinary cave. Even if there are spikes all over the wall, it is not a big deal for a being of the magnitude of Yamata no Orochi, but the key problem is the support columns, floors, ceilings and those nasty steel spikes here. They are all made of pure steel and seem to be quite hard. Otherwise, Yamata no Orochi would not have felt such an obvious sting just now.
In such a steel environment, the powerful destructive power brought by Yamata no Orochi as a god can be said to be suppressed to the lowest point. Even for the gods, destroying steel is actually the same as ordinary people destroying the earth. You can dig and move it by hand, but if you destroy a large area, it will definitely take a lot of effort. Although Yamata no Orochi's divine power has not been suppressed here, because the surrounding environment is made of steel, in fact, in terms of destructive effect, his ability has actually dropped to a state similar to that of a normal person, because he can no longer Just like outside, I ignored the obstacles and went to fight. Although the obstacles here cannot completely block his actions, they can definitely hinder him greatly.
In fact, using such an environment to limit Yamata no Orochi's mobility is only one of them. I have a second move that I haven't used yet.
This so close to the end of the world is the equipment that Heavenly Court specially built for me in response to my request and specifically for this situation. In other words, this thing is actually specially adjusted for the characteristics of Yamata no Orochi. In addition to the ability to arrange the surrounding environment at will, the main ability of Juji Tianya is actually the double speed time.
The End of the World is a very rare piece of time and space equipment. Its internal time flow is not constant. Instead, it can be continuously adjusted according to my will. Of course, this adjustment has a range, and the maximum is eight times the normal time flow rate, which means that one second of time flows outside, and here it is eight seconds.
What can you do in eight seconds? The world's best sprinters can run 100 meters.
What about one second? Even a cheetah can only jump a dozen meters at most, right?
On the surface, it seems that time in this world is accelerating synchronously, which means that if you are faster than others, this is fair to everyone, but in fact, because everyone’s thinking reaction speed is different, after this acceleration Time status has a great impact on everyone's actions.
In fact, So Far Away only accelerates the time that our bodies are in, and does not make any adjustments to our thinking. So there is a problem here, that is, the body is getting faster, but the thinking cannot keep up, so phew, many Everyone will behave out of control. Originally I was just going to take a step forward, but because my legs and feet responded too quickly, I was still waiting for the other foot to land, and my body had already rushed forward. As a result, I fell because the other foot failed to keep up with the rhythm. A big somersault.
This is actually just time acceleration. There is also a function called time deceleration in the world, and its effect is completely reversed from acceleration. In this mode, it is not that the body reacts too fast and the mind cannot keep up, but that the speed of the body and the mind increase simultaneously. The result is that on the one hand, the mind speed cannot keep up with the various external signals received by the brain, and on the other hand, it causes the body to feel It's like being stuck in a quagmire and the response is very slow. In this mode, the player's movements will be seriously out of shape, and the mental energy consumption will be very scary. Dealing with mage players with relatively low mental power can make them lose their ability to release magic in a very short period of time.
Although Yamata no Orochi is a god, he is still unable to adapt to this accelerated environment. Although I have not turned on time acceleration now, as long as I make a slight move, the time acceleration will start immediately. The big snake will definitely be in a hurry.
In fact, in addition to the steel spikes around here and the too narrow environment here compared to Yamata no Orochi, there is another thing that restricts Yamata no Orochi in this place, and that is darkness.
Yamata no Orochi is not a dark creature, at least he does not have dark vision. So in such a completely dark place, he actually has no vision range. Although divine power can also be used to replace eyes, it is an advanced way of using divine power and requires concentration to control. It is not actually that practical.
certainly. Yamata no Orochi itself can also create flames for lighting, but there is a problem. After Yamata no Orochi used a skill to set himself on fire, he himself became a giant torch. This torch can indeed play a role in lighting in the dark. But if someone lights a torch in a dark environment, do you think the people standing around him in the darkness see him first, or does he notice the people in the darkness first?
The obvious answer is that the man holding the torch must have been the first to be discovered, as he was the one underneath the torch. The person holding the torch must be the first to be illuminated, and the brightness will be the highest. People around him may be spotted if they stand closer, but if they stand a little further away. Then they can see the person holding the torch, and the person holding the torch shouldn't expect to see anyone else.
The current situation of Yamata no Orochi is similar. His fire ability can indeed light up the surroundings, but it makes him a big light bulb in the darkness. He wants to see me. At least it's possible if I enter this dark range, and if I want to see him. Just be far away.
"Who are you?" After observing the surrounding environment, Yamato no Orochi suddenly roared at the surroundings. "Answer quickly, cowardly rat. You brought me into this place. Are you planning to challenge me? If you want to fight, then come out and fight me. What's the point of hiding your head and tail like this?"
Yamata no Orochi's words obviously wanted me to come out. I didn't pay attention to his shouting, but regarded it as the fear of Yamata no Orochi. There is a saying that the scariest thing is the unknown. Something you don't know is the most terrifying thing, and once you see it, this fear is not the most terrifying thing.
Although Yamata no Orochi is a god, he has not actually experienced many complicated things. After being driven to Japan from China, Yamato no Orochi has been hiding himself and rarely showing up. Although he later joined the Takamagahara Protoss, he did not actually participate in the various affairs of the Takamagahara Protoss. Therefore, Yamata no Orochi is not actually like It is so full of life experience as everyone imagined.
It is precisely because Yamata no Orochi's life experience is not as exaggerated as imagined, so his mental quality is not very good either. In a completely dark environment like now, unless you have the ability of a bat to locate targets by relying on echo, then the best way is to hide and not make a sound, because if you make a sound in the dark, in addition to exposing yourself Otherwise, there is no benefit at all. In fact, if it were me, I wouldn't even activate the fire skill just now. Because flames are different from pure light beams, the range that flames can illuminate is very small, but the distance at which they can be detected is very large. In other words, Yamata no Orochi's behavior of lighting himself up just now actually has a higher probability of exposing himself.
I knew Yamata no Orochi spoke out of fear, so I deliberately didn't answer. No matter what, let Yamata no Orochi be nervous for a while. Even if the tension cannot cause any substantial harm to Yamata no Orochi, it can at least consume his physical strength.
We often see many people acting quickly and reacting quickly in a crisis, but when these people escape this sudden crisis, they immediately feel exhausted and want to sleep. This is because a high degree of nervousness is actually a very physical thing. Not to mention having to make various coping strategies, even if you don't do anything, just being nervous is already quite energy-consuming.
I won't speak now and keep the silence here just to consume Yamata no Orochi's energy in advance. Once his physical strength can no longer support it, I will have an opportunity to take advantage of him. To deal with this kind of advanced existence, I must use everything I can use. Only in this way can my chance of winning be greatly improved.
Regardless of what the Yamata no Orochi's situation is inside the End of the World, the world outside is already in complete chaos.
As the Yamata no Orochi crawled out from under Mount Fuji, the ghost-handed Nobunaga behind him and his more than a hundred men who had been transformed into gods finally climbed out of the rolling lava one after another.
Although these people have all been transformed by divine power, their own abilities and attributes are different, and due to luck, they have been transformed into members of the God Clan. The ratio of their strength improvement is not exactly the same, and the final state of strength they stay in is also uneven.
This difference in strength, coupled with the fact that they were in different states when they were attacked, means that the speed at which these players leave the lava pit is not exactly the same.
The first person to come out was not Nobunaga, the strongest ghost-hand among the group, but a Japanese player with the samurai profession that we had never seen before.
This guy crawled out from the rolling lava with a red light shield on his head like a devil from hell. However, it can be seen that the timing of this guy activating the protective shield is not completely accurate, because some of the clothing structures such as streamers exposed in the gaps in his armor are basically burned to pieces, and his face The black ashes also showed that this guy was burned badly.
Although when this guy came out, I had already entered the inner world because of Yamata no Orochi, but I gave a combat order before leaving, so the players in our guild carried out my order very well.
As soon as the player emerged, he saw something flying towards him in front of him. In a panic, he quickly raised his knife and slashed diagonally to cut the first liquefied magic crystal steam missile flying towards him in two. But what he didn't expect was that the liquefied magic crystal steam that was cut exploded. Although the liquefied magic crystal steam that had fallen apart had not exploded with the designed power because the shell was cut open, it still knocked the player away from the lava. He got out, and then plunged head and foot into the lava pit. Thanks to that layer of red stuff on him that didn't disappear. So even though it fell, it didn't cause any terrible damage to the player, it just made him a little dizzy. However, his nightmare has just begun.
The guy who was thrown away just felt a little confused. But as soon as I got up, I immediately felt a feeling of hair standing on end all over my body. Although he didn't see anything, this guy felt such a feeling. But he didn't know what it meant.
In fact, if a senior protoss was here in this situation, he could be taught that this is actually a kind of foreknowledge, a pre-perception of danger by the divine power of the protoss. With this ability, the Protoss can detect danger in advance and avoid it, so normally it is difficult for the Protoss to be calculated.
Unfortunately, although this kind of perception is very sharp, the problem is that the guy in front of him has been strengthened into a god by the assault. In addition to the energy attributes on his body becoming divine power, and the total amount of energy has been increased, he is still the same person as before. There is nothing special about players at all.
Precisely because he had no idea that divine power had such side effects, this player was completely unaware that he was about to face danger. So wow, just when he stupidly climbed up from the lava and planned to see who had just launched a missile to hit him, he actually looked up and saw a big hole facing him in the distance, and that The outer ring of the big hole seemed to be a gun barrel, and looking down, there seemed to be a warship flying in the sky.
"Baga..." When he saw clearly that it was a battleship, this guy was suddenly completely frightened and woke up. His head, which had been shaken by a missile, suddenly woke up completely. Come here, but it's a pity that it's too late to react at this time. In desperation, the guy quickly bent over, leaned his body slightly forward, and then crossed his hands in front of him to protect him. At the same time, he held up a defensive barrier in front of his arms, intending to withstand the opponent's attack.
He had just prepared his defensive posture when the gun barrel of the battleship opposite suddenly lit up, and a thick purple beam of light shot out, instantly hitting the shield in front of his arm, and then A dazzling flash of light. The shield swayed in the light like a candle in the wind, as if it would be extinguished at any time, and what was even more terrible was that a powerful force was being transmitted from his arms to his body. Therefore, his current divine body feels a little unable to bear it. The terrifying force pushed him from the lava to the ground, and he felt that his arms and chest were extremely hot, and he felt like he could no longer hold on.
As bad as it felt, luckily the attack didn't last long. The beam was over in just over two seconds. Then the guy immediately put down his extremely hot arms, and at the same time felt that there was no pain anywhere in his body.
Originally, he thought it was over, but he just put down his arm and looked up at the battleship opposite. What he saw was that all the dozens of small cannons on the battleship were turned towards him. The next second he saw a circle of smoke rising around the small cannons on the battleship, and less than a second later He was overwhelmed by a violent explosion.
It is said that the body of the protoss is indeed extraordinary. Although it was densely covered by such a large-scale artillery fire, this guy persisted. certainly. It is inevitable that the whole body will be dark and some parts of the armor will crack. However, no matter what, at least he survived. This is an indisputable fact.
Although he was a little embarrassed, this guy finally survived. However, although he survived now, this did not change his overall ending. I haven't had time to rejoice that my defense has increased significantly. The guy immediately felt the hairs on his body stand up again.
With the experience last time, this guy finally figured out some tricks this time. Realizing that this was a danger signal, he quickly looked around to find the source of the danger. As a result, he was dumbfounded when he looked up.
The danger is real and we have seen it. It just completely exceeded his reaction limit.
This guy suddenly raised his head and saw not the battleship just now, but three battleships with different shapes facing him, one horizontally and two vertically. And the next second he saw all the visible people on those battleships. The barrel of the gun he reached lit up, and then he felt pain all over his body. As for the specific pain...he can't feel it at all now.
Being attacked by the broadside guns of three battleships, an average player would have died countless times. Not to mention the corpse, maybe even the equipment on the body has been vaporized, right? However, he was a protoss, so he withstood the attack, but the result was a bit miserable. There are at least thirty fractures in various places on the body. In addition, the divine power in the body has been almost consumed. What's more terrible is that there is only a little more than one-third of the life left. Such horrific damage is actually nothing to a protoss. In addition to being thick-skinned and durable, the protoss also have a characteristic of fast recovery. Whether it is injuries on the body, life, or divine power, these things are consumed anyway. He recovers very quickly, and he can recover completely in no time. However, we have no intention of letting him recover slowly.
Just before the smoke and dust around him dispersed, a sudden gust of wind blew away the smoke around him. Then this guy saw a beautiful, lovely beauty in snow-white falling from the sky, and then... stabbed He has hundreds of swords.
I'm not joking, I actually stabbed hundreds of swords. More than a hundred flying swords were nailed into this guy from head to toe, and there was almost no place to insert anything else in his body. Rather than killing someone, this horrific attack would be more appropriate to say that it was dismembering the body.
Looking at the player who had completely expired, he raised his gold coin finger slightly, and more than a hundred flying swords inserted into the guy's body immediately rose into the air. However, because so many flying swords moved back at the same time, the guy's body was also Brought it up. Seeing the corpse floating up, Jin Coin frowned slightly, and then made a relaxing movement with his fingers. The next second, more than a hundred flying swords instantly scattered away, along with the guy's flesh and blood. The scene was as if a bomb had been inserted into a person's body. In an instant, pieces of meat of various sizes were flying everywhere. If the gold coins were not blocked by a light film, they would have been poured all over.
"Hehe, get one." Jin Coin watched all the flying swords disperse and then turned around and said to Zhen Hong, who was a step too late.
Zhenhong said angrily: "We agreed not to rob, but you still sneaked away, aren't you too shameless?"
"I don't think this is a problem with the gold coins." Kristina helped the gold coins and said: "I think the main problem is that what Zi Ri said before is too exaggerated. I think what Zi Ri means is that we should pay attention to these gods. Players, you don’t really want us to fight like this. After all, the three of you and I are in the top five in the combat power list. Of course, there is no way to average it out if three of them fight one. As soon as the gold coins are released, the guy will turn into mud. We have not started at all. Opportunities. I think those warships and the like can fight in groups, but the three of us still have to separate. And I don’t think there is any need for those protoss in our guild to squat together. With the strength of Hades and his gang, , even if Yamata no Orochi comes out on his own, there will be no winner without fighting for three days and three nights, right? As for a dozen people squatting together like this? Look at that guy over there, he was cut into pieces as soon as he stood up. Why don't you ask someone to come up and take a breather?"
Of course Kristina's words had a certain effect, but the effect was reversed. The subsequent battle turned into a group of people fighting for monsters, and various masters and gods fighting for the newly emerged ghost-hand Nobunaga.
Originally, it was said that even the subordinates of Ghost-Handed Nobunaga were temporarily strengthened. His strength was unstable, but he was not killed so miserably. But this time we made a surprise attack, and with our previous strategy, we destroyed Mount Fuji in one fell swoop and buried all these people under the lava. By the time they crawled out of the lava, half of their lives had actually been taken away. Now Ghost Hand Nobunaga and Yamata no Orochi are missing. They are surrounded by groups of great gods and masters on our side without any organization. It's weird if it's not miserable.
I won’t talk about Kristina and Gold Coin, but Hades and Peacock Pluto. Even if they become guild gods, their strength has declined, but the power of the past is still there. If they really fight, they will be fierce. An extremely ruthless character. Normally, it would be difficult for ordinary protoss to deal with any of them, but now these newcomers of the protoss like Nobunaga Ghost Hands actually want to challenge them. Moreover, they were attacked by a sneak attack, so there was no way they could fight back. Almost everyone was covered in fire and blown up as soon as they appeared, and then they were set on fire for several more rounds. All the divine power in his body is almost exhausted. Finally, a group of great gods come up to attack him. Who can withstand this?
A group of us here were having a great time playing "whack-a-mole" when suddenly we heard Vina, who had been sitting on one side without moving, opened her eyes and said: "Our divine power core sensed a huge... Divine power fluctuates. It should be some kind of communication connection. It may be that the other party's consecutive deaths have alerted them."
Of course, this so-called serial death refers to those Protoss players. It was normal for these people to die after being covered by lava, but they died one after another on such a large scale. This is not normal. Although I don’t know where Ghost Hand Nobunaga is yet, as the president of the Ghost Hand Alliance, he can certainly check the casualty list of his guild. Just now, Nobunaga must have discovered that the list of casualties on his side is gradually expanding, and the death time is quite dense. This phenomenon clearly shows that the people here are being massacred, rather than dying naturally. Therefore, Ghost Hand Nobunaga began to use divine power to connect communications, hoping to organize his own people to resist our attacks. Although he has not seen our troops before, Nobunaga Ghost Hands has heard the reports about the invaders from the people below, and Yamata no Orochi also told him that the Essinger Mobile Fortress has arrived, so Nobunaga Ghost Hands knows that we are Outside, he just didn't expect that his own people would suffer such heavy casualties.
Here, the ghost-hand Nobunaga did not hesitate to expend his magical power to conduct long-distance command, and the Japanese players who climbed out of the lava one after another suddenly stopped coming out again. These people were aware that there was danger outside, so they chose to take shelter in the magma temporarily. Although soaking in the lava like this requires consuming their divine power to resist the high temperature of the lava, it is better than rushing out one by one and then being killed one by one.
Under the command of Ghost Hand Nobunaga, these people quickly gathered together. Because of the obstruction of the lava and the fact that this place had just been bombarded by the radiation cannon on the Essinger Mobile Fortress, the energy fluctuations were very chaotic. We were temporarily I didn't know where they were for a while.
Since neither side could take the initiative to attack, the battlefield naturally became quiet. Of course, only the two sides of the battle are quiet. Mount Fuji has no intention of being quiet at all. That guy is having fun right now.
"It seems that these guys need to gather together before they come out." Seeing this situation, the Great Peacock King Ming said from the side.
Hades put the black holy spear in his hand back behind his back, and then said: "No matter how many people they come out, we just have to go up together. We have killed so many just now, I don't believe that Yamata no Orochi has the ability to strengthen the Thousands of gods. Even if his divine core has so much divine power, he may not be willing to use it."
In fact, Hades's guess was indeed correct. If all the power of faith in Yamata no Orochi's divine power core is really used up, this time Yamata no Orochi will actually be able to strengthen a thousand divine players. However, Yamata no Orochi is planning to counterattack China, and once he sets foot on the land of Middle-earth, he will inevitably encounter the forces of heaven. Because Yamata no Orochi knew the power of Heaven very well, he kept most of the power of faith and planned to use it when fighting Heaven. This resulted in the number of reinforcements this time being only more than 200, and because it was half strengthened, it We raided them, so only more than a hundred people were actually strengthened.
Just now, we took advantage of the opportunity of those ghost-handed Nobunaga's subordinates to crawl out of their faces one by one in panic. We have already killed more than twenty protoss players. So Hades was very convinced that there were definitely not many people left.
