Cthulhu Gonfalon Chapter 88:
The characteristic of the spell “Time Stops” is a jewel pocket watch.
Many spells require the use of certain materials as catalysts, and time stop is no exception. The catalyst it needs, in addition to the gems used in many advanced spells, there is also a clock with accurate time-it doesn’t matter the specific shape or size, as long as the time is accurate.
In order to facilitate spell casting, wizards often use special pocket watches. This pocket watch is inlaid with many gems, and the time is very accurate, which can completely meet the needs of spells.
Among the known spells, this spellcasting material is unique, so once you see a certain mage take out a gem pocket watch in battle, it is most likely to cast this spell.
In fact, as long as the two requirements of “accurate timing” and “multiple gems” can be met, the casting material of this spell does not necessarily require gem pocket watches. For example, some ancient genres of spellcasters like to use the gem hourglass as the casting material for this spell. From another perspective, the celestial globe of gemstones should work. There are many similar things.
However, gem pocket watches are still the material of choice. One pocket watch itself is a good decoration, it is also very convenient to use for timekeeping, and the other is the cheapest among a variety of more convenient materials-although the cost of each gem pocket watch is more than two thousand gold coins, it is enough Let a low-level mage go bankrupt directly.
Lei drew his sword while rushing out. He didn’t dare to delay the slightest, but hoped that he could be fast enough to hit the target before the opponent completed the spell.
But he is still slow after all.
When his sword was just unsheathed, the pocket watch in Kahn’s hand made a “click” and stopped.
At the moment when the pocket watch stopped, everything in the box faded into a monotonous black and white pattern. Only Kahn holding the stagnant pocket watch still maintained the normal color, which proved that he was independent of time at this moment.
At this time, the distance between Lei and him was already less than two meters.
Kahn nodded to Lei with a little appreciation. He guessed that this swordsman might have been in contact with a high-level mage, or even a legendary master who can understand the high-end spell “Time Stop”. There are not many people, even in the mage.
There are too few people who can immediately realize what spell to cast when they see him take out his pocket watch, and do not hesitate to do it!
Maybe this swordsman is also a noble character, maybe he is also a descendant of a legendary master. You just made a cruel joke by fate, didn’t you inherit the ability to cast spells, right?
is a little sympathetic…
But he will not be merciful because of this. The sympathy between geniuses will not be given to the weak who are abandoned by fate.
It’s better to say, being able to die under one’s own hands, instead of struggling to rot slowly in the quagmire of incompetence, for this poor swordsman, it might be happier.
Kahn raised his right hand, with magical runes woven on his fingers, and a spell quickly took shape.
The air in front of Lei vibrated slightly, and several blurs and distortions appeared. These blurs and distortions are not conspicuous, and they will be ignored if you don’t pay attention.
This is the blade of the force field, improved and upgraded on the basis of the low-level spell “Magic Missile”. The level is not high but it is easy to use. It does not require materials and is sufficiently concealed. The key is that ordinary physical means cannot resist it. Even the enchanted armor will lose its effectiveness in front of it-unless a rare force field is attached to the armor. Protection.
In order to avoid affecting one’s own “super speed” state, it is not advisable to have direct contact with the enemy when time is stopped, nor to cast direct attack spells. So Kahn used a special technique to stop the blade of the force field that should have been shot out in the air.
The blade of the force field is already very difficult to resist, let alone the blade of the force field that is stuck in the air and waits for the end of time to stop.
It is conceivable that when time stops and ends, these invisible sharp blades will suddenly appear in front of Ray. They will shoot at the target quickly, perhaps before he notices them, they have been shot.
The blade of the force field is sharper and more terrifying than ordinary flying knives. If it is shot by it, the wound will be difficult to heal. Even if he can escape the deadly key with his superb reaction, the wounds caused by multiple cuts will completely disable him, and he can only lie on the ground and wait for excessive blood loss to die.
Time to stop the blade of the afterburner, supposedly enough. But Kahn didn’t stop there. He cast the spell again, this time around him, the air fluctuated rapidly, and the invisible power condensed into a sharp sword to protect him.
This is a sword-blade barrier, a very effective protection spell.
The spellcasting is still not over. Kahn knows how long his time stop can last, and he can add about two more spells.
To tell the truth, using so much energy to solve a small group of guys who are eating troubles is really a fuss. But since he has taken the shot, he will not hesitate and will not have reservations.
Negligence and carelessness are the enemies of the mage. Only with sufficient preparation and sufficient caution can you be invincible forever.
But at this moment, he saw something beyond his expectation.
The huge floating jellyfish suddenly recovered its color, from the gray object in the black and white state to the previous green.
This means that it has also broken free from the shackles of time, stepping into the outside of time like Kahn, and entering a wonderful state called “time stop”.
how is it possible! Why does a mere jellyfish have this ability? Is it actually a change from a certain master?
Kahn was shocked and couldn’t help losing his concentration on spells. The magic power that was about to be condensed into a rune on his right hand disintegrated in an instant, and he snorted, bleeding from his nose.
Spellcasting is a double-edged sword. If it succeeds, it can hurt the enemy, and if it fails, it will hurt itself.
…but…the failure to cast the spell was backlashed, and he hadn’t encountered such a thing for a long time.
Kahn immediately cleared up his thoughts, his mood quickly recovered, and he started casting the spell again. This time he was going to cast a “water extraction element”, which can extract water from the enemy’s body and transform it into one controlled by the caster Water element. Although a strong physique can greatly reduce its damage, the more water in the body, the better the effect of the spell.
Jellyfish is a large aquatic animal. More than 95% of its body is made up of water, which means that its resistance to extracting water elements will be very low. And because of the extreme need for water, even if it blocks more than 90% of the damage with its strong physique, the remaining 10% is enough to disrupt its body fluid balance and make it lose its combat effectiveness.
All of this is just a thought in a flashlight. But just with a thought, Kahn has found the most suitable spell and quickly cast it.
Because he has never contacted this information, he has never even considered this situation, so he is not sure whether he can attack in a world where both parties are in a “stopped time” world. However, he didn’t even think about it, so he directly chose to target the spell at the big jellyfish and release it.
instinctively told him that in the current situation, direct attacks are completely fine!
The spell of “extracting the water element” turned into a dim gray-white light, hitting Sui Xiong who had just stepped outside of time and hadn’t gotten used to it.
The body of the giant jellyfish shook slightly, and a large amount of water was pulled out and turned into a surging stream of water. It has a sturdy torso and human-like arms, but it does not have a head. It has a wailing face on the chest. If you see it at night, you can scare the faint-hearted to death without attacking.
This is the water element. Among various elemental creatures, it is barely a common one.
The water element constructed by the spell is about as high as ordinary people. It belongs to the weaker among the medium-sized water elements. In terms of combat effectiveness, most of them can’t even beat Stil, who has become a pig. Of course, it is impossible to break through the time limit with this weak force, so it freezes as soon as it is born, and the blue body instantly fades its color and turns into a gray solidification.
But Kahn didn’t expect its fighting power in the first place. All he hoped was to draw the water out of Sui Xiong’s body.
“The tactic was successful!” When he saw the water element forming, he couldn’t help but smile.
Calculate the time, and the time stop is about to expire. When the time stops, he will immediately launch a follow-up attack on this jellyfish, absolutely can’t let it slow down!
However, half a minute later, the world is still black and white, everything is still frozen, there is no change.
“What’s the matter?!” Kahn was taken aback. He had never encountered such a strange thing.
Time passed bit by bit, at least a dozen seconds later, but the black and white world remained the same.
Kahn’s eyes widened and looked around, feeling helpless.
What should I do? What should I do? What should I do!
Just when he was uneasy, a green tentacles shot over him like flying, entangled him tightly.
Then, the world returned to its color, and he returned to the normal flow of time.
The green shadow flashed, Sui Xiong stopped the thunder with one tentacle, and the other tentacle blocked the blades of the invisible force field.
The blade-shaped force field slices left sorrowful wounds on the tentacles, but they recovered completely in a blink of an eye, and even a drop of blood did not flow down~IndoMTL.com~ There was another flash of green light, just formed. The water element was smashed, and all the water was sucked back by Sui Xiong.
After all this last night, he smiled and said to Kahn, who was still staring blankly: “How is it? How does it feel like time has stopped?”
“Did you do it?” Kahn asked suspiciously with blinking eyes.
“How do I say I am also a god, is it weird to do this kind of thing?”
Kahn was silent for a while, then shook his head.
“I have lost, I want to fight or kill, I will listen to it.”
“There is no need to fight, kill, and kill, but I think you are too angry, too arrogant, this is not good.” Sui Xiong said with a smile, “Young man, you can be more arrogant when writing articles. , It’s better to be humble.”
”Words like modesty are nothing more than a mask used by the weak to conceal their incompetence.”
“So compared to me, are you weak?”
Kahn smiled slightly, without fear on his face: “The key to strength and weakness lies in the mind. A king may be weak, and a beggar may be strong. A strong mind is the root of everything!”
”Is that a beggar with a strong heart, is the strong one?”
“Beggars are not powerful at all, I just said casually.” Kahn shook his head, “People with strong minds should of course work hard. So they must always be in the pursuit of success, and success After a temporary rest. How can a decadent beggar have a strong heart!”
“Then do you think I am strong?”
“You don’t have a mind that overlooks everything. Even a deity has nothing to do with the mighty.” Kahn said categorically.
On the issue of principle, even in the face of the gods, he does not back down.
