Chapter 245 Tracking
After missing the target, Gaode's mood did not change much and he remained very calm.
The dragon-tongued blue lizard is a terrestrial creature after all.
Even if his spells are far more powerful than those of other mages with the addition of Fengling Yueying, they are still just tricks after all, and it is normal for them to be blocked by a creature of the earth's veins.
Compared with other first-level mages, except for Fengling Yueying, the most outstanding thing about Gaode is the large number of spells stored in the spell library.
As the saying goes, quantitative changes cause qualitative changes.
Some spells are nothing if taken alone, but they can be combined with other spells to produce a 1+1>2 effect.
Two intense energy beams flew out of Gothe's hands and shot towards the oncoming Dragon Tongue Blue Lizard.
[Magic Explosion+], which comes with enemy locking and force field damage, is very suitable for dealing with the Dragon Tongue Blue Lizard, which has extremely strong physical resistance.
After all, force field damage is a noble damage type that ignores armor and physical defense. This means that no matter how tough the skin of the dragon tongue blue lizard is, it cannot ignore the rays of the magic energy explosion.
Energy beams fly.
The dragon-tongued blue lizard's keen insight into energy also smelled a hint of danger, and it tried to avoid it.
However, the continuous tracking mechanism of [Magic Explosion+] makes its attempts in vain, unless it can burst out at an astonishing speed in a short period of time and pull the body out of the casting distance of the Magic Explosion.
Finally, two energy beams accurately hit the dragon-tongued blue lizard and then sank into it.
On the surface, the dragon-tongued blue lizard could not see any injuries, but it immediately let out a scream of pain.
Because it has suffered some damage internally.
At this moment, Gaode and the Dragon Tongue Blue Lizard were extremely close, and were about to miss each other.
The dragon-tongued blue lizard, which suffered great pain, suddenly opened its mouth and spit out a tornado-like blue airflow storm in anger, which rolled towards Gothe.
Gaode seemed to have no reaction and didn’t even make any move.
The next moment, the blue air flow enveloped Gaode.
However, the surface of Gothe's body was filled with a faint light at this moment.
【Increase resistance +】.
When you have the right to go first, there is another big advantage, that is, Gaode can add [Increase Resistance +] to yourself early.
The duration of [Increase Resistance +] is no longer limited to one minute, but can be extended as he wishes until the mana is exhausted.
The blue air flow swept across and enveloped Gothe's figure.
But Gaode was as stable as a rock, and his actions were not affected at all.
Among them is the ability to increase resistance and the ability of the primary Ice Blessed Body.
Gaode, who has the body of primary ice protection, can withstand ice element damage by 11%. Just like the earth-line creatures on the snowfield, he is born with strong ice resistance.
With the dual blessing of the primary Ice Blessing Body and [Increase Resistance +], the damage caused by the ice storm of the Dragon Tongue Blue Lizard to him is almost negligible.
The freezing and slowing effect brought by the ice storm is also completely immune to the primary Ice Blessed Body.
The dragon-tongued blue lizard obviously didn't expect Gothe to ignore its attack so easily and hadn't reacted yet.
Of course Gaode will not miss this short opportunity.
While the mana surged in his body, the moment he passed by the Dragon Tongue Blue Lizard, two suspended ghost hands had been summoned by him, and they pressed heavily on the Dragon Tongue Blue Lizard. on rough skin.
In an instant, the dragon tongue blue lizard felt weak all over and became tired and weak.
[Mage's Hand+]+[Touch of Fatigue]!
The Mage's Hand does not have offensive capabilities.
However, Gothe can use the hands of the mage to complete the contact required for [Touch of Fatigue], indirectly transforming [Touch of Fatigue] from a relatively useless melee spell to a mid-to-short-range spell.
This is the embodiment of 1+1>2.
Seeing that the dragon tongue blue lizard was already in a state of fatigue, Gothe immediately pursued the victory and released the next spell.
A blazing flame burst out from his hand.
The flame arrow drew a bright trajectory and hit the dragon-tongued blue lizard that was unable to respond in time due to the effect of the spell.
【Flame Arrow+】!
Although the extreme cold in the north will weaken the performance of fire spells, because the dragon tongue blue lizard's main resistance is concentrated on the ice system, the damage caused by fire spells will be greatly increased accordingly.
One side is weakened, the other is improved, but comparing the two, improvement is better than weakened.
So, the cost-effectiveness of casting flame arrows is still extremely high.
The dragon-tongued blue lizard hit by the flame beam immediately let out a painful roar. There were burnt marks on its tough skin, and it was obvious that it was seriously injured.
Seeing this, Gothe knew that now was the best time to end the battle.
Dang, Dang, Dang!
A mournful bell rang in the air and continued to echo.
【The Death Knell of the Dead】.
A bell sounds that gives additional damage to injured units.
Dark patches appeared on the skin of the dragon-tongued blue lizard, and the eyes showed fear and despair.
This is the necrotic damage caused by [Death Knell]. It can not only cause damage to its body, but also have a certain impact on its spirit.
As the bell echoed, the life force of the dragon-tongued blue lizard seemed to be being drawn away by invisible forces.
Gothe did not give the dragon-tongued blue lizard any chance to breathe, and the lion also needed all his strength to fight the rabbit.
"[Magic Energy Explosion]!" He shouted softly, and two violent energy beams flew out of his hands again, shooting straight at the already weak Dragon Tongue Blue Lizard.
This time, the energy beam caused greater destructive power in the dragon tongue blue lizard's body on top of the necrotic damage.
The dragon-tongued blue lizard struggled feebly, but its body could no longer offer effective resistance.
The energy beam hit its abdomen, made a muffled sound, and then sank into it.
Under the dual negative effects of fatigue and erosion, the dragon tongue blue lizard's body is at its most vulnerable at this moment.
Therefore, these two energy beams instantly caused greater damage inside its body.
In the end, the dragon-tongued blue lizard fell on the snow, losing all its vitality.
Gothe looked at the [Dragon Tongue Blue Lizard] (1/7) that appeared on the source column of Wind Spirit Moon Shadow. After confirming that it was completely dead, he released [Increase Resistance +], and then walked to next to its corpse.
The dragon-tongued blue lizard is one of the earth-line creatures unique to the North.
So the general course on earth biology that Gothe took at Sires Academy did not include an introduction to the dragon-tongued blue lizard.
Of course, he couldn't understand which parts of the dragon tongue blue lizard were more valuable.
Gothe can only use [Detect Magic], then cut off the part of the tongue where the magic aura shines most, and put it into the package.
Then, he patiently cut up the body of the dragon tongue blue lizard.
This is the first dragon-tongue blue lizard that Gothe has killed, but it is not the first lizard earth-line creature.
Origin:
Ring 0 - Frost-tailed lizard (4/7), ice-scaled lizard (2/7).
Before meeting the first-level dragon tongue blue lizard, Gothe also encountered two different level 0 lizard leyline creatures.
Unfortunately, most lizard lineage creatures live alone, unlike snow wolves and snowfield hyenas, who can form a large group when they meet.
So the origins he obtained are also scattered, and he has not come up with any new origins so far.
After killing the frost-tailed lizard and ice-scaled lizard, Gothe had already tried it, and the taste of the lizard meat was surprisingly good.
Lizard meat tastes similar to fish, is relatively tender, and is rich in protein and fat. It is definitely a high-quality ingredient.
According to the way people in the north eat, it is naturally eaten raw.
However, Gaode's eating habits still cannot accept such a primitive method, so he usually brings the lizard meat in whole pieces, cuts it into small pieces when needed, and roasts it on the fire. system.
The dragon tongue blue lizard is almost as big as a wolf, and the pieces of meat that can be cut off from its body are quite heavy.
However, due to the weight limit, Gaode finally only cut off the most tender part of the belly of the dragon tongue blue lizard.
The rest is left to nature or the snow vultures and snow hyenas circling the snowfields. After tidying up, Gothe set off again.
After walking a few more kilometers, he was already far away from the fighting point, and the sky was getting dark, so he was ready to camp and rest.
Gothe first followed the usual practice and checked the weather for the next day through [Druid Trick], and then cast [Wild Astute] to call out the Soul of the Wilderness to help find a suitable camp.
This is Wild Soul’s area of expertise.
After a while, the Wild Soul found a relatively flat, leeward and sunny area nearby, and there were some low bushes around it, which could serve as a natural barrier.
Obviously, this is an ideal place to set up camp.
The soul of the wilderness found the camping spot and immediately consciously searched for dead branches and hay that could be used as fuel and stones to circle the fire, and used Gaode's supplies to build it A simple camp was built in the found camping site.
It set up the tent, unpacked the bedding, and took out the rations that Gaode had brought with him.
Having mastered this spell, Gaode's living standard in the snowfield has skyrocketed.
No wonder Baruch said [Wild Alertness] was a must-learn spell for guardians.
Of course, currently this is all that Wilderness Soul can do. More difficult tasks can only be done by Gaode himself, such as cooking.
He used spark magic to quickly light a fire, then cut the lizard meat into small pieces and roasted it on the fire.
At the same time, a small pot was set up on the fire to boil hot water.
As for the Soul of the Wilderness, it was sent out by Gothe to continue looking for fuel.
The meat of the dragon tongue blue lizard is extremely delicious, even without seasoning, it still tastes good.
After a long day of traveling, being able to eat something good made Gaode feel good.
Beside the fire, Gothe took out the map from the Snover clan and looked at it.
Ten days have passed since he ran away from the Snowfield Guardian Chapter.
During this period, Gaode traveled an average of 40 kilometers every day, which is 400 kilometers in ten days.
But it is actually still far away from the northern coastline.
Because he entered the north from the Ervinraya Mountains in the Principality of Xien.
To reach the northern coastline, the distance required is approximately equivalent to traversing the entire Plantagenet Dynasty.
But Gaode is not in a hurry.
Because he is not just on the road, while he is on the road, he is also actively "spawning monsters".
With other things to do, the journey will not seem so boring.
After confirming that his direction had not deviated, Gothe put away the map.
Flora sat on Gothe's shoulders and warmed herself by the fire with him.
Changes in temperature have little effect on her.
But Flora was a scholar. When she saw the mage warming himself by the fire, she joined him in doing so.
She would also taste whatever the mage ate.
"Master, are you going to start practicing again?" Seeing Gothe put away the map, Lady Flora said.
Gothe nodded, "Yes."
"Then Flora will also start practicing magic."
"Then I wish Flora tonight Immediate success.”
"We have no horses."
".My fault, then I wish Lady Flora success tonight."
"Sir Flora almost succeeded last night, there will be no problem today. ." The scholar vowed emphatically.
"Yes, there will be no problem today."
"Lord Flora is indeed wise, and she can't trouble you with just a few spells." Gothe praised one after another.
Flora glanced at Gothe, and she was very satisfied with Gothe's praise. She narrowed her eyes slightly and showed her joy.
“Really?”
“Of course, it would take at least half a year for an average mage apprentice to master a spell!”
“Fuluo It took less than a month to learn La Da Da!" Flora counted it carefully on her fingers, and she became even more happy.
“That’s awesome.”
"By the way, mage, how long does it take you to learn a spell?"
"."
"Huh?!" Flora tilted her head and looked at Gothe.
"I'm going to start today's practice. Madam Flora, please hurry up. As the saying goes, it will be exhausted in one go, then it will fade, and it will be exhausted in three. Take advantage of the good momentum now and strive to succeed tonight."
"How long does it take you to learn a spell?"
"."
"How long?"
"Just that long."
"How long is that long?"
"Two or three days." ”
Gao De did not "dare" look at Flora again. After answering, he sat cross-legged silently, entered a state of trance, and began to practice the "Aoki Sutra of Immortality".
“?!!!”
Flora’s eyes widened, as if she had been struck by something, and she could no longer say a word.
Gothe was awakened by Flora before he completed today's practice.
Of course, Flora has always been very sensible. The reason why she interrupted his practice was because she discovered an abnormality and alerted Gothe.
Gothe's whole body was in a state of shock. As soon as he stood up, he found that two figures had appeared at an unknown time in front of him and one or two hundred meters behind him.
It happened to block his way forward and retreat.
Two people, one is a man and the other is wearing a bronze mask.
Gaode narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Guardian of the Snowfield?" he confirmed.
Because Gothe saw the familiar pattern representing the "Guardian of the Snowfield" on their clothes.
"Yes, we are the hunters of the Snowfield Guardian." The man blocking Gothe in front said solemnly.
These two people are naturally Loic and Catherine who have followed the scent all the way.
"What do you mean by this?" Gothe looked at Roic with a vigilant posture, and through spiritual communication, he asked Flora to help put away the "Wilderness" in the package. interest".
The experience of living with Baruch gave him a certain understanding of the hunter group among the guardians of the snowfield.
In terms of combat effectiveness alone, hunters are stronger than guardians.
So, although it is impossible to know the mage levels of these two hunters, there is no doubt that they can definitely crush themselves.
He still doesn’t know the specific purpose of the other party’s visit, but it is obvious that the person who came here is evil, so he must put away the “Breath of the Wild” first to avoid the crime of “pregnant jade”.
"I have met Baruch, the guardian of your sect, and I can be considered a friend of the guardian of the snowfield." Gothe said in a deep voice.
"Sure enough, we found the wrong person." Seeing that Gothe had already confessed his identity before he asked the question, Luoic couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.
