Stray Chapter 199: Remains
The light of the knife flashed like a spring thunder, and even the atmosphere was frozen.
The explosive sound in the air sounded violently, and the wonderful slashes that are enough to be included in the textbook did not stop even for a second, but one move after another, and the tip of the knife took advantage of the situation to lift one by one gorgeous New Moon Slash!
One by one abnormally deformed heads flew up, and those rickety, hideous monsters turned into headless corpses one by one, or were cut into two parts, and fell to the ground, a large number of Blood spurts out of the wound without money...
A short centipede-like aggressive crustacean poisonous insect, each the size of an adult wolf dog, is extremely fast and disgusting, and its sharp mouthparts and venom are quite deadly. It surged up, like an endless tide.
However, before the energy slashed by the blade, it was directly cut in half, or was directly dismembered, and it was smashed to pieces, leaving only one root of chelicerae arthropods, broken carapace, sticky Thick and disgusting bodily fluids...
The smell of blood and other strange smells permeated this dark underground space, and it seemed to be more and more thick.
These monsters are not completely without weapons, although most of them are still bare-handed, but some carry crude bows and arrows or hand axes, and wear hideous leather armor.
Of course not those disgusting short-centipede-like crustaceans, but those rickety humanoids, which are actually degenerate snow elves, once thought to have been hunted by the Nords. Extinct race.
In fact, they have always been hidden deep in the dark underground, because they were betrayed, framed, and enslaved by the dwarves, which finally made their splendid civilization degenerate. And because they adapted to the dark underground environment, they evolved into violent, cruel, primitive, and **** races.
It is said that snow elves, like giant dragons, are both legendary species. They were originally a branch of the ancient elves that migrated to the snowy sky. They are called snow elves because of their tall stature and pale skin.
They originally got along with the ancient humans who also migrated to the sky, but perhaps they were afraid of the rapid development of mankind, or because of the innate confrontation between dragons and snakes, they launched a massacre known as the "Night of Tears".
Cause and effect cycle, retribution is unhappy, in the future, the surviving ancient pioneer Isgramo led a group of super machos to return to counterattack, the snow elf leader Snow Prince was killed, this race was finally expelled from the sky by the ancient Nords at the beginning of the first era Province.
Then, this race asked the dwarves for help, and the dwarves generously agreed to shelter them, giving them a chance to continue to survive—
It seems like this on the surface, but in fact, the dwarves maliciously forced their entire clan to use poisonous mushrooms, causing them to gradually lose their sight and their intelligence.
And in order to ensure that these characteristics penetrate deep into the snow elves, so that their descendants will also inherit these degraded genes, and better captivate them as livestock slaves. degree.
Of course, the cruel treatment and living conditions result in a hunched body, degenerated blindness, wrinkled skin, low intelligence and violent personality. The snow elves were forced to degenerate both physically and mentally, and they began to retreat to deeper layers...
Finally, a civilized race, whether it is ceremonial temperament or cultural education, has been completely lost due to centuries of cave dwelling, and has become a hunched monster with a hideous face, driven by the dwarves as slaves.
Until I don't know when it started, the snow elves began to occupy the underground dwarve ruins after the dwarves were suspected of failing because of the failure of the god-building plan. They breed the poisonous Charus, eat the eggs of Charus, use Charus horn and toxin to make armor and poisoned weapons, and start frantically attacking and plundering all beings on the ground.
Xia Ran never thought that he would meet this poor race at this time, but he didn't hesitate.
Compared to the explosive, powerful and powerful destruction spells, his killing at the moment is more like a dazzling art, but it is also extremely efficient and fast. I don't know how many heads are harvested.
And the range is not bad. As long as the magic power from the deep infusion overflows, it can be turned into a huge blade. By waving it, it can perform a smooth mirror-like light slash, and it is very easy to slash to nearly a hundred beyond meters.
Whether it's a snow elf with a rickety body and a hideous face, or the disgusting Charus poisonous insect like a short centipede, they will all be cut in two neatly and die in pieces.
They are like tides coming from the depths of darkness, but Xia Ran's slaughter speed and slaughter efficiency are faster than the number of them refreshed.
In addition, the power of this energy slash is extremely compressed, almost condensing into a straight line, and there is no large-scale explosion and splash damage. Not only will it not be wasted, but it will not cause too much movement or terrain changes. .
If you switch spells, so many monsters will be troublesome. If the power of the spell is too small, it will definitely not be swept away. If the power of the spell is too strong, it may cause the rocks above to collapse and directly press down.
Reality is not a game, and I won't say that the skills that should be able to destroy the world can't even smash the floor of the battle scene after they are released, because the engine does not support the physical destruction effect of the environment...
And the blade of ebony not only gives Xia Ran extremely powerful melee ability, because of its characteristics, when using this knife, the consumption is very small, and it can be achieved by fighting to support war——
The magic power was just consumed to trigger a huge slash of light. With a swipe of the knife, all the magic power was sucked back, and he could even have excess energy feedback to strengthen himself... Although he has not found any of his attributes for the time being. The increase, but the space's annotations are always correct.
In this way, the efficient and rapid slaughter continues, the blade seems to set off a storm of killing, the destructive slashing lines criss-cross the air, and ruthlessly divide everything in front of you...
As a result, bodily fluids of various colors splashed into the air, and all kinds of broken limbs scattered on the ground. The corpses of snow elves or the carapace arthropods of Charus poisonous insects, etc., soon piled up like mountains. More and more...
In the end, I don't know if it was them that were afraid, that they retreated, or they were completely killed. When Xia Ran stopped, nothing swarmed out from the darkness in the distance. .
The drooping ebony blade is dripping with liquid, the color of which cannot be seen due to the dim light.
Xia Ran whispered softly, and then used the effect of aura whispering to determine that there were no more enemies nearby, and then waved the knife to shake the blood and put away the magic blade. The prompt message of the white space sounded not long ago, telling him that he had obtained 3 free attribute points.
Two of them are regular points, and the remaining point is acquired through the energy-absorbing effect of the Ebony Blade.
Looks like it's really licking the wool of space? Does this mean that the life of the lost, the essence absorbed by the rules of space, is at least as high as 30% for the handling fee?
But does it actually allow wool? Is it going to settle accounts after the fall, or is there another secret?
Xia Ran didn't have time to think too much. Although those snow elves and Charus poisonous insects had disappeared, something seemed to come over from a certain direction ahead, but there was no breath of life.
But they don't look like undead. In the map model reconstructed by the information obtained from the breath feedback, Xia Ran roughly confirmed what they are—
It's all kinds of strange mechanical puppets, the models are not consistent, there are large and small, even if he hasn't seen it with his own eyes, the modeling of breath feedback alone is enough for him to understand a lot of details. Incredibly sophisticated dwarf machinery.
But think about it too, where there are a lot of snow elves, it often means that there are underground ruins of dwarves nearby.
Many people may have some preconceived impressions of this race because of the name "dwarf".
Actually, they are not short at all, because they are also a branch of the elves, called the deep elves, or "Dwemer" in the Elvish language, and the name of dwarves is said to be handed down by giants.
They are the most mysterious race on the entire continent. They have advanced culture and advanced technology. They make good use of steam, machinery and geothermal heat, and perfectly combine technology with magic...
Although their family has evaporated, the dwarf machines they created are still running in the underground ruins, and they are very powerful.
Xia Ran still pressed her right hand on the handle of the knife, crossed the battlefield just now, and walked forward with her body spotless. If it wasn't for a magician with a robe and a hood, she would really look like a personable man. Swordsman.
He is very interested in dwarf machinery, and is taking this opportunity to see it.
There is a passage in front, but it is different from before. Although it is pitch black and without light, Xia Ran can clearly see that this passage is obviously a man-made building, and it is very spacious.
The magician walked into it without hesitation, and at a glance, he saw that there were neatly paved large tiles under his feet, and on the walls on both sides and on the top, there were thick brass pipes that stretched far into the distance. , just like a modern water or gas pipeline...
He looked up and looked back, and saw that the other end of these brass pipes did not penetrate into the mountain, and he didn't know where they were connected. The metal was penetrating, and the high-temperature heat inside was still emitting.
If the average person dares to reach out and touch it, it is estimated that the skin will be scalded directly. In front of the passage, some pipes were probably damaged, and steaming high-temperature steam spewed out, making a hissing sound in the darkness.
Accompanied by the rapid and intensive knocking sound, several small spider-like figures slammed out of the darkness, showing amazing jumping ability, like face-hugging insects coming out of their shells towards Xia Ran's Flying across the face.
The lightning-like sword-drawing technique once again showed its sharp edge. In the crisp sound, precise metal parts were scattered all over the place, and several dwarf spiders were directly scrapped.
Xia Ran took advantage of the situation and sheathed her knife, squinting her eyes and looking ahead... There is an even more terrifying approaching.
With the sound of dull footsteps, while equipped with heavy armor, the outline of a huge mechanical puppet with a giant warhammer on its other arm gradually emerged from the steam-shielded passage...
