Chapter 233 Great Earthquake
The blood lotus bloomed for more than ten minutes, and Clown was like a drunk, dizzy.
The stench and bloody smell mixed together, making it even more uncomfortable.
At this time, four out of ten ratmen in the space were gone, and no monster dared to approach, all hiding in those narrow tunnels.
He retracted his sword and left quickly. If he didn't leave, he might vomit.
He came and left in a hurry. When he met the slowly advancing troops, he ordered them to leave together.
Outside the mine, Watt looked at the bishop whose face had eased, and asked carefully:
"Sir, what's the situation inside?"
It almost suffocated me. Clown let out a long breath and waved his hand, saying, "Don't mention it."
He told the situation inside, and all the soldiers looked at each other. It turned out that the inside had become a ratman kingdom.
Feeling that the nausea had eased, he continued:
"I need to check the situation of one or two more mines to see if they have also become the territory of ratmen."
Crown inexplicably felt that his position as a bishop was shabby, and he had to do it himself if he wanted to complete the task efficiently.
Unless a team of second-level extraordinary people was formed, there would be a lot of casualties in the face of the overwhelming ratmen.
The Hammers Diocese initially allocated 50 second-level extraordinary people, but after the construction of the city wall was completed, 30 more were transferred back to Rhine City.
The church needs to build some small shelters one after another, which requires a large number of manpower.
Before they carried out this mission, they expected to face only some mutated nocturnal creatures, so they only brought five second-level extraordinary people, which was far from enough.
Watt hurriedly said: "Sir, let us go down to the mine."
As a subordinate, attitude is very important. Whether you go or not, you must express your attitude at the first time.
Crown laughed and said: "When it's time for you to contribute, get ready, we're going to the No. 2 mine."
. . . .
Accompanied by the sunset glow, the sunset stretched the shadows of the cars going down the mountain.
Crown seemed to be looking at the lush grass on the road, but there was a golden light in his eyes. Today's big gain was the rapid improvement of his proficiency in Blade Storm.
[Blade Storm: 1062/5000; Level 2]
The secret skill has reached the second level, and now he is more elegant and deadly when he spins.
He feels that it is more labor-saving to release Blade Storm now, but the damage caused has increased.
In one day, he checked three mines and found that they were all occupied by ratmen.
These ratmen also dug many narrow passages, and he felt that these passages connected the entire mining area together.
In the mine he entered later, he only encountered a few ratmen, but he could clearly see the traces of a large number of ratmen living.
The fact is just as he expected. Without exterminating these ratmen, the mining area cannot resume production at all.
I thought this task would be a leisurely job, but it turned into a tough task in the end.
After returning to the camp, Clown got off the car and said, "I won't have dinner tonight. I'll arrange the night watch."
After enduring the unpleasant smell for most of the day, he still has no appetite.
Sometimes, an overly sensitive sense of smell is a torture.
"Yes, sir."
Watt took the order. He didn't know what the bishop had experienced in the mine, but he knew that the other party's face was not very good.
As a man with good eyesight, he would not go up to offend at this time.
Back in his room, Clown found a new set of potion-making equipment on the table inside.
He picked up a pen and paper and wrote a letter.
He informed Fanny and Nick of the situation here and put forward his own plan.
The mine area cannot resume production in a short time. He plans to build the outer wall of the mine castle before the winter comes, and more craftsmen need to be deployed.
In addition, the Holy Fire Cathedral needs to support more second-level extraordinary people.
The battle with the ratmen will not end in a short time, and we must be prepared for a long-term battle.
These ratmen have dug too many small caves, and reconnaissance flying artifacts must be deployed for support.
Although these monsters could not last more than half a second in his hands, their actual combat power was not much weaker than that of elite human soldiers.
His most urgent task now was to develop a special potion to deal with the toxins in the ratmen's bodies, so that the Crusaders could be dispatched on a large scale to participate in the war.
He printed his own ring seal on the last page of the letter, then put it into an envelope and sealed it with wax.
The two pets did not know where they had gone. Clown took a bear heart potion and began to practice breathing.
Today, the proficiency of breathing increased little. Diligence makes one proficient, and play makes one lazy. With the help of the golden finger, one should work harder.
. . . .
At noon the next day, the soldier who returned to the Central Church to report the situation brought back Fanny's reply, accompanied by a group of stonemasons and 500 Crusaders, as well as a batch of star steel.
Clown opened the envelope, which said that the two bishops also agreed with his plan, and the message requesting reinforcements would be delivered to the Holy Fire Cathedral with today's airship.
The airship went back and forth once a week, and he needed to wait for the archbishop to send reinforcements.
After putting the letter away, he pointed to the craftsmen and soldiers in line and said, "Arrange accommodation for these people, and have someone clean up the blacksmith shop. I need it."
The star steel has been delivered, and he must first complete the matter that the archbishop urged.
Watt accepted the order and said, "Sir, the blacksmith shop was cleaned up yesterday afternoon, and the blacksmiths accompanying the army have already moved in."
"Very good."
Klauen praised, he came to the blacksmith shop and ordered the blacksmiths to smelt star steel.
While smelting star steel, he took the bear heart potion and continued to practice the giant bear breathing method.
. . . .
Ten days passed in a flash.
The archbishop sent an additional 100 second-level extraordinary people, and the mining area has begun to clear the ratmen in a planned manner.
However, there are many ratmen, and the results are not great.
During this period, Klauen forged the promised evil-killing weapons and gained a lot of skill proficiency.
[Forging: 3856/10000; fourth level]
After continuous experiments, he finally developed a potion that can resist ratman toxins.
He has given the formula to the pharmacist to make it, and it will be mass-produced and equipped to the troops soon.
The bear heart potion has been consumed, and the breathing method has reached the final stage of advancement.
[Giant Bear Breathing Method: 7999/8000; third level]
That day, Klauen called twelve second-level exorcist priests to practice.
He did not use weapons, but used the armor-condensing ability to condense a layer of metal essence on the surface of his two arms.
The priests were divided into three groups, each with four people. They could only use shields to attack or defend, and could not use flails.
Using the giant bear breathing method, Klauen sometimes used fists and sometimes used palms to dissolve the priests' attacks one by one.
He stepped forward and punched hard, and a priest who was rushing towards him with a shield was knocked more than three meters away.
In his opinion, the speed of these priests was too slow. Even if he did not release bullet time, he would still be able to suppress them.
Dynamic vision, precise etiquette, plus his own extremely high basic strength and speed values, the priests' attack trajectories were all within his prediction.
These many factors combined to create an extremely terrifying fighting machine.
Watt had just withdrawn from the field after the second round of fighting. He rubbed his sore arm and couldn't help grinning.
The bishop's fist hit his shield, and he felt like he was hit by a mad bison of the extraordinary level, and his body would fly uncontrollably.
Only by actually fighting with the bishop can you understand how terrifying the opponent's strength is. The opponent can always achieve the best attack effect with the smallest movement.
He had also consulted Bishop Cavendish and other bishops, but he didn't feel the feeling of being suppressed to the point of suffocation.
More than a dozen of them felt exhausted, but the bishop was still full of energy.
Watt felt that even if they used the flails, the battle situation would not change at all.
He turned his head and happened to look at another priest. Both of them saw the same emotion in each other's eyes: Is this a human transcendent? !
Clown's arms were as thick as ordinary people's thighs, and they were more intimidating than bear paws.
He felt that if his fists hit the bodies of these priests, they would be able to beat them directly and lose their combat effectiveness.
The refreshing feeling of the blow allowed him to completely release the wildness in his heart. He felt that he had turned into a human-shaped giant bear and was rampaging.
At this time, four priests raised their shields at the same time and rushed over from the front, back, left and right of him.
"Good!"
Clown roared happily, and he made a move that came to his mind.
He suddenly jumped up, then quickly landed on the ground, clenching his fists and hitting the ground.
With him as the center, invisible shock waves radiated in all directions.
"Bang"
Watt first felt the ground shake violently, and he almost lost his balance.
At the same time, he heard a dull sound bombarding his ears, and his heart paused for a moment with the dull sound.
He saw the four church members who rushed to the bishop like leaves blown away by the wind, each flying back.
What happened? Watt's mind was blank.
"Haha, refreshing, let's stop here today."
Klauen felt the joy rising in his heart and nodded with satisfaction.
The hearty frontal battle made his nerves completely excited. He felt that his blood seemed to have turned into boiling water, and the boiling water pushed open the lid of the pot.
Watt asked flatteringly: "Your Excellency the Bishop, what secret technique did you use just now? It's too powerful."
Klauen smiled and said: "I just realized some of the mysteries of the giant bear breathing method."
He closed his eyes, as if he was reminiscing, but in fact he was summoning the golden wall.
[Giant Bear Breathing: Extreme] (The spirit of the giant bear merges into your soul, and wildness is your byword.
Special Effect 1: Primary Strength. Permanently increases basic strength by 10%.
Special Effect 2: Earthquake. Consume a certain amount of physical strength to release your wild power, sending shock waves around to knock away nearby enemies.)
Another skill has been pushed to the limit. The first special effect increases basic strength, which is a very practical passive ability.
What satisfied him most was the second special effect - Earthquake, which turned out to be an active skill.
