Chapter 1178 Prepare to Set Off

"Don't go so far, speaking of dwarves...you remember Belling?"

Audrey frowned slightly, her expression solemn.

"The last time we explored in the Underdark, it was because of this Bellyn that we had a grudge against the dark elves in the Oaknell dungeon. If Claudia finds out that we have returned to the underground world, I'm afraid they will come here again. entangled..."

"You think too much, there is no such coincidence in the world."

Hailaer sucked on the apple juice with a disapproving expression on his face.

"The abyss and mud where the dwarf prospecting team is located is located in the fourth area of ​​the underground world, and it is thousands of miles away from the Oaknell dungeon. How could Claudia know that we have returned to the underground world?"

"Take a step back, even if Claudia finds out about our itinerary, so what?"

"Her demon hunters and tricksters are all dead, and her power is not as good as before. After we meet with the dwarf prospecting team, there are two more strong men, Klein and Scholz, here comes Claudia. I can't take advantage of it, so there is nothing to be afraid of!"

Holden also thinks that her sister's concerns about the dark elves are purely to scare herself.

"Just two days ago, I received a 'short message technique' from Belling, urging me to go treasure hunting with him."

"Although I didn't accept Belling's invitation, judging from this letter, this kid has lived a very happy life recently. Claudia hasn't even caught Belling, the prime criminal who stole the treasure map. How could that Take your time to provoke us."

After hearing the rebuttals from her younger brother and Hyrule, Audrey also felt that she was a little neurotic, but compared to the overly optimistic Holden and Hyrule, she was always used to thinking about the worst possibility in everything, and doing things well before taking action. preparation.

"Even if we don't consider the potential threat of Claudia, we still have a difficult problem to solve."

"Don't forget, Mr. Klein sent a letter asking for help, asking us to help deal with the petrified lizard. The question is how can we fight against this terrifying monster that can turn people into stone statues just by looking at it?"

Audrey asked seriously.

"Well..." Hailaer stroked his ponytails, "Although I can't think of a good solution, I believe Joan must have a solution. Joan, am I right?"

Facing the expectant eyes of the three friends, Qiao An thought for a while and nodded solemnly.

"I can think of one way, which is to use the third-level prophecy spell 'Tremor Perception'."

"After blessing this spell, it is equivalent to gaining the blindsight ability. When you close your eyes, you can still sense the slight wind and grass around you."

"The biggest threat to basilisks is that their pupils can emit a supernatural ray. Any creature that looks at them will soon turn into a stone statue if their physique is not strong enough."

"Using 'tremor perception', we can close our eyes to hunt basilisks. As long as we avoid eye contact with them, we will not be threatened by the 'petrified gaze'."

In the end, Joan concluded: "Before I set off, I will make a few more bottles of 'Blindsight Potion' and copy a few scrolls of 'Tremor Perception'. It should be enough to deal with petrified lizards."

"That's all right!" Hailaer clapped his hands excitedly, "I'll just say, if you can't decide, find Joan, he must have a solution!"

Audrey nodded, and said: "Let's eat quickly, organize the materials and equipment needed for the underground exploration this afternoon, and set out on the road early tomorrow morning, directly teleport to the contact station in the fourth area, and then join the dwarven prospecting team as soon as possible , what do you all think?"

Joan, Hyrule, and Holden unanimously agreed with the arrangement made by Her Royal Highness, and the expedition schedule was decided in this way.

After lunch, Joan went to the Arcane Library first, trying to find spells for protection and de-petrification. In the battle with the petrified lizard, if he was accidentally caught, he would have a life-saving backup.

The results of the spell search made him a little disappointed. He couldn't find any spells that were specifically used to "prevent" the petrification effect.

There are quite a few spells that can remove petrification, such as "Break Barrier", "Fosmise into Flesh", "Ruby Reversal Ray" and "Advanced Restoration", all of which can remove the petrification effect, but the lowest level "Break Barrier" It is also an arcane technique with a level of 5, which cannot be mastered with Joan's current spellcasting ability.

Joan stood in front of the spell retrieval mirror, crossed his arms, frowned, and fell into deep thought.

Is it really that difficult to prevent and remove the petrification effect?

Leaving aside the means of removing petrification, the prevention of petrification alone seems to be a blank area in the existing arcane system.

By horizontal analogy, negative effects such as disease, poison, curse, charm, paralysis, deceleration, hypnosis, and even instant death all have corresponding prevention spells, and the level is generally not higher than level 4. Down?

It is very strange that there is no special spell for protection against petrification.

Even if such a spell exists, it is also unreasonable if the level is higher than level 4.

In the well-developed arcane academic system, there should not be such an obvious loophole. Joan felt that he was obliged to invent a spell specially used to protect against petrochemical attacks to fill the gap in this field.

This idea is indeed exciting, but when you think about it carefully, it is much more difficult than it seems on the surface.

The negative effect of "petrification" seems pure at first glance. It is nothing more than the transformation of flesh and blood into mineral materials.

But in-depth analysis of the factors causing petrification, the situation becomes complicated.

For example, petrified lizards stimulate magic power through their eyes, and use sight as a medium of communication, causing the prey to be eroded by magic power the moment they make eye contact with it, and the body is quickly deformed and petrified.

Similar petrification attacks, and Gorgon.

But there are other monsters that can cause petrification in the world, and they don't use eyes as the attack medium, such as "snake chicken beast" and "petrified cow". Toxic gas, inhaled through the respiratory tract, causing petrification.

Obviously, these ways of causing fossilization are very different, and the preventive measures are not necessarily the same.

In addition, Joan also retrieved an arcane spell called "Petrification" in the library.

This 6-ring arcane spell belonging to the "School of Change" can directly turn the subject into a stone statue. Is its spell configuration closer to the supernatural gaze of petrified lizards and gorgons, or is it closer to snake chickens or beasts? How does the petrified bull attack?

Joann still doesn't know anything about it.

If these problems are not clarified, and petrified biological samples are not collected and studied as completely as possible, it will be difficult to come up with a set of solutions that can resist all types of petrified attacks.
