Chapter 72: Dawn of Victory
The goldfish spirit laughed wildly, which made the night in the desert cool down quickly. Its skin was wrinkled, like the wrinkles on the forehead and eyes of a man in his forties. Of course, this would not make the goldfish spirit look more mature and masculine, like the shell sweat mother, who kills all female creatures, young and old. But it could make Lao Hu and others see that the goldfish spirit was also at the end of its strength and had signs of dehydration.
After all, this is a desert, not a river beach. The sudden drop in temperature at night in the desert does not mean that there will be sufficient water, otherwise there would not be so many people dying of thirst in the desert. The large number of spells that the goldfish spirit cast at this time all need to be supported by abundant water elements. Where can there be water elements in this desert? Naturally, it can only use its own rapidly consumed blood essence!
Seeing that the Sanskrit words drawn by the goldfish spirit's claws were faster and denser, they flashed in the air one after another, and then fell into the giant egg in front of it one by one, and the remaining light was added to the light green mucus cover beside the goldfish spirit. And the giant egg seemed to be a layer inside a layer. After one layer broke, the inner layer of the giant egg grew rapidly again, as if it would never hatch!
Fortunately, the goldfish spirit had no ability to attack when controlling the hatching of the giant egg, but it was extremely difficult for others to attack him. Moreover, there was a very terrifying corrosive poison effect around the egg shell, and it was impossible to block the giant egg in front of it and kill a batch of people as they came out. Even though the goldfish spirit could not intervene in the affairs of the battlefield for the time being, it was certain that Fang Lin and his group were currently facing the biggest crisis since entering this world!
The sudden wooden stakes pierced the sand again like a forest of spears. Although there were more enemies this time, the accuracy was much better, with only four fish slipping through the net. This was certainly not luck or Longma suddenly drinking Nootropics to open his mind. Lin Yinxiu and Lao Hu both noticed that when Longma made a move, a faint black color enveloped his head. The only explanation was that Fang Lin pulled himself out in time and assisted Longma with his strong computing ability.
Old Hu and Lin Yinxiu were naturally very surprised, but their pupils shrank as soon as they turned their heads. Fang Lin seemed to have returned unconsciously with the darkness. His whole body was wrapped in shadows, giving people the feeling that he was a group of lead-gray clouds that were constantly expanding and contracting. Although his face and body could not be seen, he could clearly feel that he smiled.
Then the darkness gradually dissipated like a thick black cloud, and Fang Lin could be seen lying crookedly on the sand dune. He actually crawled back with his hands. He finally escaped from the pursuit of the inner elixir of the goldfish spirit, but he had become a bloody man.
Fang Lin's legs had almost been shaved of their muscles, and many places showed white bones. His hands were even more horrible, looking like two messy lumps of flesh and blood! It can only be seen from the five split ends that there used to be fingers there! In addition, Fang Lin was stabbed in many places on his chest and abdomen. It seemed that there were more than a hundred wounds covered with yellow sand all over his body, oozing blood!
Just by looking at his injuries, you can tell what kind of painful torture Fang Lin had experienced before, but Fang Lin's expression did not show any pain. Instead, he was smiling at the teammates in front of him who could entrust their lives to him.
"The next thing will be up to you."
Fang Lin had obviously completely lost the ability to fight. Lao Hu and Lin Yinxiu did not feel depressed, but instead had an indescribable fighting spirit in their hearts!
Fang Lin suddenly raised his head and looked into the desert in the distance. His eyes were deep, with a hint of gentleness in them.
In the dark desert in the distance, a little red light suddenly appeared. The light was like the embers of a cigarette butt before, supporting a little dark red in the darkness, and deep and thick, and then quickly changed color, from red to purple, then from purple to blue, and finally disappeared.
Then a violent explosion occurred on the distant horizon! A deep and huge mushroom cloud appeared in the core of the explosion, rising slowly, with countless branch-like purple lightning flashes constantly appearing and disappearing inside, and there were also fiery red lead clouds colliding with each other, just like a nuclear weapon explosion.
The goldfish spirit twitched in pain, and its physical strength dropped by 70,000 points again! When Fang Lin was chased by the goldfish spirit's inner elixir and had no choice but to use his whole body's mental strength with the full recovery potion to play his S-level skill, the mutated eight wine cups. Although it can't freeze time like Yagami Iori's eight-foot Gou Qiongyu, this copycat version can still slightly slow down time, giving Fang Lin a little buffer time, misleading the goldfish spirit's inner elixir to the eight wine cups of energy he had played, making the goldfish spirit's inner elixir mistakenly believe that the group of eight wine cups of energy was the enemy to be killed.
However, Fang Lin was seriously injured at this time. He did not expect that under his plan, the goldfish spirit's inner elixir would actually split into two at the critical moment. Most of the power on the left side chased the eight wine glasses' whizzing energy, but a small part of the power on the right side chased Fang Lin. Fang Lin was under the backlash of his advanced skills at this time, and his defense was the weakest. Therefore, he could only use all his strength to resist a small part of the power of the goldfish spirit's inner elixir, resulting in the current miserable situation.
At this time, the violent explosion in the distance of the desert was naturally the terrible scene of the goldfish spirit's inner elixir catching up with Fang Lin's eight wine cups of energy and then being detonated.
Of course, according to the conventions we have learned from fairy tales/Hong Kong movies/games, the consequence of a monster's inner elixir exploding is almost equivalent to a human heart exploding. Even if it does not die on the spot, it is at least the fate of the butterfly demon in the Legend of Sword and Fairy, who can only show off her cleavage under the poor effect of a 14-inch monitor, losing her Taoism and turning back to her original form.
However, it must be considered that the goldfish spirit has at least been gilded by Guanyin Bodhisattva, turned into a regular student, and obtained a diploma from studying abroad. The reason why it only loses blood but does not die is because: the inner elixir spit out by the goldfish spirit is only a secondary elixir, and it has another main elixir that is the main source of power. Of course, he will never spit out this inner elixir that determines life and death.
Fang Lin's return undoubtedly boosted the spirits of Lao Hu and others. Although Fang Lin has lost the ability to fight at this time, he can still use the real cutting technique to give his teammates the ability to recover. In addition, Fang Lin's mental detection, which is like mercury pouring out of the ground, is also indispensable like radar.
Especially in the current situation where the number of enemies has increased, Fang Lin, who has lost his combat power, can free up his hands to concentrate on integrating and analyzing various data, and give mechanical commands to his teammates, such as "take three steps forward and attack at normal speed." If it were someone else, it would definitely be impossible to trust Fang Lin unconditionally, but here are all teammates who are dependent on interests and life and death. Even if Fang Lin immediately asks them to hit the goldfish spirit's fist, I'm afraid they will hit it without hesitation.
Therefore, although Fang Lin cannot provide the ability to fight immediately after his return, with him as the center, the combat power of the entire team has been rapidly improved. This is like a basketball team that has a good coach and its combat power will be greatly changed.
The giant egg shell in front of the goldfish spirit cracked again with a snap, and Longma was ready to release the wooden stake. It was still unknown how many batches of powerful elite soldiers the goldfish spirit could hatch endlessly, but Long Ma's number of times of releasing the wooden stake was quite limited, that is, it could only be released six times at most, and he only had one chance left!
This time, a new water monster appeared. They were still roughly human-like in shape, with a pale yellow complexion, but their hands and feet were surprisingly thin and small, and their mouths were very strangely grown, with slender protrusions like morning glory. They had a Taoist-like bun on their heads. This water monster held a strange curved weapon in its hand, which was very similar to the disposable boomerang that Fang Lin and his team had obtained. These water monsters were typical long-range attack methods, and could throw out fast hidden weapons to attack the enemy.
When Long Ma was about to release the precious fourth wooden stake, Fang Lin stopped him! At this time, Fang Lin had already hidden far away. He directed the butcher to throw out the bloody iron chain. After wrapping around Lao Hu's waist for several circles with a swish, the golden iron chain rolled Lao Hu up and threw him into the group of small water monsters.
Lao Hu shrank in the air and bent his elbows to minimize the area of being hit, and then slammed hard on the ground. A circular invisible air force spread violently. The yellow fine sand that fell on the ground was immediately blown by the strong wind, and a wind wall more than a meter high rose up, sweeping across the bodies of all the water monsters. These thin guys immediately felt as if they were blown by a 12-level typhoon. The whole body felt weightless, and the result was that not only their legs were injured, but they also fell to the ground with a plop!
Landmine shock!
Lao Hu's elbow hit the ground, which produced the effect of a landmine shock that originally required standing up and slapping the ground with both hands. It was really secretive and abrupt, and it was really hard to defend against.
What is more important to note is that Lao Hu was nearly ten meters away from the butcher, and twenty meters away from the place where the group of water monsters hatched. This roll and throw seemed simple, but in fact it required very skilled coordination. Without Fang Lin's calculations and scheduling, they could not do such a move at all. Even if they could barely succeed, they could not avoid the dense trajectory of the group of water monsters and were shot into a sieve in the air!
