After killing the evolved spider, Joseph's red eyes slowly returned to normal. He took out the handkerchief from his sleeve, carefully wiped off the dirt and blood on his body, walked back to Richard and Popovich, and transformed back into the gentleman-like Joseph.
Joseph said a little apologetically: "I didn't want to attack like this, but this is the only way to cause the most damage to the golden spider, so I made you two laugh."
Richard said: "This is not a joke, it's Wizard Joseph, you have opened our eyes.
"That's right." Bobo Bo Vicki agreed.
"I don't dare to take it." Joseph said, "But the action I took just now cost a lot of money, and I may not be able to do it casually for a while. So if you encounter trouble in exploring the ruins in the future, you will have to rely on the two of you, such as what appears next... "
As he spoke, Joseph looked aside.
Sure enough, there was movement again in the darkness, and with a hissing sound, the third evolved spider crawled out. It was no longer alone. I don't know if it noticed the tragedy of its first two companions, but there were dozens of ordinary demonized spiders following behind it.
Bobo Bovich looked at it and his eyes were condensed. Now, the side effects of using potions to increase his strength have not completely passed. It is okay to deal with an evolved spider alone, or dozens of demonized spiders alone, but together it is a bit troublesome.
When Richard saw it, he raised his eyebrows slightly, but he was not afraid and said: "Then let me solve the problem."
"Be careful." Joseph said, "This time is more difficult to deal with than the last two."
"Thanks for the reminder." Richard said, "I will do it."
After saying that, he took the initiative to greet the evolving spiders and demonized spiders that were rushing towards him. When he got close, he flicked his hands, and numerous metal bars flew out of his sleeves one after another.
Each metal strip is more than ten centimeters long, more than two centimeters wide, and several millimeters thick, with identical magic patterns carved on the surface. After being thrown out by Richard, it was activated with a small amount of free energy. The free energy elements stored in the metal slats quickly took effect, activating all the magic patterns and showing the spell effect.
"Puff, puff, puff, puff!"
Just hearing a series of sounds, the metal bars fell towards the evolved spiders and the demonized spiders, and exploded quickly, releasing a biting white cold air.
It's just a white cold air released from a metal bar, which only slightly slows down the attack speed of the evolved spiders and the demonized spider group. But dozens of metal bars continuously release white cold air, which is different. The superimposed effect causes the speed of the evolved spider and the demonized spider to slow down and get slower and slower visible to the naked eye. Finally, a little bit Frozen to the ground and turned into an ice sculpture.
quiet!
The place was extremely quiet, because all the people making noise had turned into ice sculptures.
Joseph looked at this scene and couldn't help but look surprised. He obviously didn't expect Richard to have such a method. He looked at Richard and said tentatively: "Wizard Richard, is this an absolute ice spell?"
Absolute Ice Domain is a fourth-ring spell of the water-like elemental ice system. It is extremely powerful. In most cases, only a fourth-level wizard can cast it. It can easily freeze a huge lake, or kill all living things in a small area with overwhelming cold, which is terrifying.
"It's not the absolute ice domain." Richard replied aloud, "What you see is just the effect of the polar ice spell - dozens of polar ice spells are released at the same time. It looks a bit like the absolute ice domain, but it is not No. For example, the temperature cannot be as low as the absolute ice field, so at most it can trap the target but not freeze it to death."
"They're not dead?"
Joseph was startled and looked at the evolved spiders and the demonized spiders, showing a vigilant look.
"Yes, they are not dead." Richard said frankly, pointing to the evolved spider and the demonized spider, "The effect of the spell is just to freeze them here and put them in a forced sleep state temporarily. If the time is long enough, , or the spell effect disappears, they will leave. By then, they may have some frostbite or other injuries, but they will not die."
"Then why not kill them?" Joseph asked.
"Is this necessary?" Richard asked back, "Aren't we here to explore the ruins, and we are not here to cause pure killing. Since we can just freeze them here to meet our needs, why bother to kill them? "
"Uh." Joseph was convinced and nodded: "Okay."
Then he thought of something and looked at Richard again: "By the way, Wizard Richard, I saw just now that you seemed to use a lot of disposable spell props to release spells to attack, right?"
"Yes." Richard did not deny it.
"Then the cost of an attack like yours will be very high, right?" Joseph said, "After all, magic spell props are not cheap."
"Fortunately." Richard said, "I made all the magic props myself, and the cost was not as high as I thought."
In fact, the cost is not only not high, it can even be said to be pitifully low.
The metal bars were specially made by him in order not to expose too much of his strength. Because of the photolithography mass manufacturing technology, apart from the initial investment, the only remaining cost is some material costs.
Joseph naturally didn't know this, but after listening to Richard's words, he looked seriously at Richard and said, "Even if the cost is not high, the fact that Wizard Richard can produce so many disposable spell props also shows the efficiency of production. Extremely high, are you, Wizard Richard, a magic pattern master?"
"I don't count as a master. At most, I only have a little research on magic patterns. Well, a little research."
"That's amazing enough." Joseph said, "Wizard Richard, I don't know if you have heard of this sentence: Every wizard who is proficient in magic patterns is the cornerstone of a great wizard organization. This means , In a wizard organization, every wizard who is proficient in magic patterns is of extraordinary significance.
Originally, you were strong enough to join the Truth Society, and coupled with your proficiency in magic patterns, I believe you can quickly enter the core layer of the Truth Society.
Before, I was worried that the cost of your attack method was too high. Now it seems that the cost may be high for others, but for you, it is completely acceptable. Because whether you join the Truth Society or not, you have enough gold coins if you want. "
"It's okay." Richard said, "By the way, speaking of gold coins, the organization hasn't paid me for the research materials I sold to the organization before, right? Although, after I joined the organization, I should have dedication, but I think it’s better to settle the accounts openly.”
"Well, this..." Joseph was stunned for a moment, but then expressed his attitude, "Wizard Richard, don't worry, the truth will always be fair and just, and will never seize the interests that belong to you. Believe me, in a few days, this matter will There will definitely be a proper explanation.”
"That's good, let's continue exploring."
"good."
After saying this, Richard, Joseph, and Bobo Bowitch continued walking towards the depths of the ruins.
