Element manipulation, as the name suggests, is the ability to control various elements in the free air; players who are good at this ability are called element controllers.
There are seven factions of element controllers, namely light, darkness, wind, thunder, water, fire, and earth. Water element controller is one of the very common factions.
It just so happened that Qin Ruo, who was level 35, was an ordinary water element controller.
At the same time, Qin Ruo has become an unsociable loner since he ended his cooperation with the first team; an adventurer who mainly aims to make money and hangs out in the notorious Kane Forest.
The Kane Forest is a dangerous place, but Qin Ruo doesn't think so in his heart. He has been wandering around the Cairn Forest since level 30. During this month, except for one particularly unlucky time when he was surrounded and annihilated by a group of Gale Wolves, he had never encountered any dangerous situation. That time was because of a collision. It was only when a team of idiots with an IQ below 60 escaped that they suffered a disaster. Otherwise, with his eyesight, he would not have bumped into the Gale Wind Wolves and become victims of the riot.
Every time he thought about this, Qin Ruo felt very depressed and couldn't figure out why such a large group of people, facing the truth of the dense green eyes in the darkness, had to run away in one direction? Do they think they can outrun this group of gale wolves known for their speed and agility in the dense forest of Cairn
Of course, being able to walk sideways here has a lot to do with his own strict self-discipline; after all, Gale Wind Wolf is a monster with weaknesses to follow. The green beast pupils in the darkness are very conspicuous and easy to detect; in addition, Gale Wind Wolf The wolf's waist is a major weakness, and its magic resistance is very poor. Finally, the Gale Wolf's own wisdom is very simple. He plays magic with the warrior profession and melee combat with the magician. This allowed him to figure out a reliable strategy for victory.
While thinking about it, Qin Ruo's mind moved slightly and he suddenly stopped!
While looking around, he vigilantly and quickly opened a layer of transparent barrier outside the body - the water barrier.
Water Barrier is a second-level defensive magic. When faced with an attack, it can withstand a third-level skill or magic attack. It is the most commonly used defensive method by water element controllers.
The Kane Forest should actually be called the Rain Forest. In this dense forest with high humidity, the water element condenses very quickly and is easier to control. His strength can be more fully utilized... This is why Qin The reason why I have been unwilling to leave for the past month is weak.
Opening the barrier, Qin Ruo listened carefully to the sounds nearby, his brows gradually furrowed.
So quiet!
The adventurers and adventurer teams of Cairn Jungle can say more or less!
Before, Qin Ruo chose a path that deviated from the adventurer's path, so he didn't meet the players. But since he obtained the blast crystal core, he turned back to that avenue. Logically speaking, this journey should not be like this. It’s better to be quiet;
But in fact, there are fewer and fewer Gale Wind Wolves. There is not even a shadow of a player team. The entire dense forest reveals an excessive silence. This makes Qin Ruo, who is well aware of the situation here, unable to help but feel too much. A little nervous and uneasy.
After scanning the surrounding area to confirm that there were no breathing sounds of beasts or other abnormal sounds, Qin Ruo quickly spit out two words: "Water, condense!"... The thin water mist in the air quickly condensed together, and the visibility of the surrounding scenery suddenly improved. Quite a few; with Qin Ruo as the center, the condensed water polo rose into a water belt with a diameter of nearly ten meters, moving slowly.
Examining the thick pile of fallen leaves at his feet, Qin Ruo frowned: It was indeed so.
There are many traces left by the gale wolves trampling on it. It seems that a wolf pack has been formed in the Kane Forest. As for the scale... it is not clear. But one thing is very important. The tendency of the wolves is annoying, and it is actually the refreshing point of the Gale Wind Wolf King.
Once you understand this problem, the mysterious atmosphere in the dense forest can be explained...
It seems that the Gale Wind Wolf King has been targeted by a large team, otherwise the Gale Wind Wolf would not have gathered in groups at this time, and it was also deliberately led in the direction of the brush point.
Qin Ruo shook his head depressedly. Although the dual-attribute crystal cores and raw materials worth thousands of gold coins exploded by the Gale Wind Wolf King were very tempting, it was obviously irrational to try to fight against a team with his own strength! What's more, there should be many player groups with the same intention along the way that have been cleared away by the wolves. Continuing in the direction of the brush point will definitely bring trouble to himself. He resolutely decided to give up the goal, return to the original route, and stay away from this place as soon as possible. The further away from the land of right and wrong in front of you, the better!
At this moment, a pair of green pupils suddenly flashed from the darkness in the distance...
The moment he caught that flash of green eyes from the corner of his eye, Qin Ruo secretly cried out! Without any hesitation, he raised the staff in his hand and chanted loudly:
"Water, wall!"
In the midst of the chanting, the rhythmic water ribbons in the air converged eagerly with the master's mood! It turned into two transparent water ribbons and lined up in the air a few meters in front of Qin Ruo.
There are more and more green beast eyes flashing out from the darkness ahead, one pair, two pairs... ten pairs... twenty... The sound of rushing back and forth is getting denser and denser, and the entire dense forest seems to be shaking in the movement of the wolf pack in the fierce wind. !
Cold sweat slowly fell from Qin Ruo's forehead...
Damn it!
The Gale Wind Wolf King must have just been refreshed. How could the wolves abandon their target and come back so quickly? Could it be that... that damn team is a bunch of rookies
asshole!
Qin Ruo cursed in his heart, cursing those incompetent bastards who seduced a large group of Gale Wind Wolves. Now they killed him. In the dense forest, no matter whether they were offline or running away, it was impossible for the players to escape!
He chose to run away last time, only to be chased and torn into pieces by a pack of gale wolves. From that day on, he told himself that he would never retreat even if he encountered ten thousand gale wolves next time, even if he couldn't kill them. It’s a pack of gale wolves, but it’s better to get a little more experience than to be killed for being a coward.
"I hope not too much will be revealed this time..."
Qin Ruo glanced at the turquoise crystal in his backpack, took out a small bottle of sky-blue magic recovery potion, and sighed sadly in his heart.
…
In just a few seconds, dozens of pairs of green pupils of the Gale Wind Wolf came into Qin Ruo's field of vision. The current Gale Wind Wolf clearly felt the adventurer blocking the road in front of them, and let out a burst of excited wolf howls, speeding up in vain. The speed of approach! .
"Water! Condensation!"
"shield!"
The intense crisis forced Qin Ruo to lose his previous composure, his eyes crinkled, and he used his usual technique to freeze a Gale Wind Wolf that rushed at him first. The timing was good, and the frozen Gale Wind Wolf happened to be stuck in a row of bushes. Above, it is like a raised obstacle, unable to move.
However, each operation has a cooling time, and first-level elemental manipulation cannot be performed continuously (the cooling time of first-level magic is one second)...
After Qin Ruo quickly identified several openings in front of him, the rhythmic water ribbon in the air quickly swam over, followed by a high-pitched cry: "Ice wall!"
The hose suddenly cooled down! With a strong breath of ice, it was like two extremely heavy ice walls crashing down from the air! A Gale Wind Wolf was unable to dodge and was directly chopped at the waist, hissing and twisting, howling in pain; the Gale Wind Wolf that followed was also forcibly blocked under the ice wall at this time, and they all stopped in their tracks. Temporarily buying him a second or two.
"Water, condense!"
Qin Ruo did not stop the movements of his hands, and the thin water mist that had dispersed in the air was extracted again. However, this time it did not condense into water balls. Instead, under his command, five water arrows were formed, and Li Xian was angry. Shoot at the two Gale Wind Wolves that broke through the last opening.
"Ice! Arrow!"
The five water arrows, which were as soft as water and seemed to have no lethality, suddenly became stern and cold under Qin Ruo's chant, and their speed also accelerated a lot in vain.
"Howl..." "Howl..."
The ice arrows all hit their targets and landed on the waists of the two gale wind wolves.
However, Qin Ruo's original intention was to use ice arrows to freeze the gale wolves to buy time, and then deal with the gale wolves on the other side who smashed the ice wall with wind blades and rushed out. But what he didn't expect was... to be hit by three ice arrows. The gale wind wolf fell directly to the ground, disrupting his position.
Seeing six or seven gale-force wind wolves flying out of the two openings at the same time and starting to gather the next round of wind blades, Qin Ruo secretly cursed him, knowing that he could not wait any longer, he roared urgently:
"Ice! Explode!"
Sonorous and powerful sounds were accompanied by bursts of explosions. The ice wall in the distance that had not been shattered and the ice wall that had been blown into two pieces simultaneously made a huge explosion. In an instant, several pieces of ice were scattered in this stream. Driven by the huge force that exploded inside, it shot angrily at dozens of gale-force wind wolves in all directions.
Third level group magic, ice blast. It is divided into three steps, ice condensation, shooting, and explosion. It takes about three seconds to prepare in total. However, under Qin Ruo's deliberate arrangement and control, the first two steps were saved, and therefore a more terrifying and faster attack was performed here. Raid effect!
Of course, the fog of the dense forest also contributed a lot. Without the help of this natural water mist and the increased affinity, there would not be such a terrible fact as three consecutive explosions...
Under the exploding ice all over the sky, the dozens of Gale Wind Wolves that were blocked behind suffered varying degrees of damage. What excited and surprised Qin Ruo the most was that several of the Gale Wind Wolves collapsed and died as he expected. Under the attack of a round of ice blast.
"good!"
Qin Ruo's eyes flashed with joy.
It seems that this group of Gale Wind Wolves must have gone through a fierce battle, otherwise there wouldn't be only a few dozen of them... Humph, it seems that maybe I don't deserve to die!
While thinking about it, Qin Ruo firmly decided to survive from these hungry wolves!
