Chapter 944 Manipulating the Water Level
The accident happened so suddenly that the two wetland knights who were ordered to supervise the duel realized that the situation was not good until Gumoduo fell to the ground with the sword, and hurriedly urged their mounts to come in a hurry.
Pinkerton turned to look at the Wetland Knight who was approaching quickly, raised his revolver, and pulled the trigger expressionlessly.
boom! boom! boom! boom!
Four lead bullets whizzed out of the chamber one after another, and the muzzle locked on the boggard man's mount.
Two giant toads, each shot twice in the head, screamed and fell to the ground, their limbs twitched, unable to get up again.
The swamp man on the toad's back was suddenly thrown out by inertia, fell to the ground, and gnawed his mouth full of mud.
The two quickly got up, each holding a mace, stared at Pinkerton fiercely, and approached, cursing all the way.
Mr. Detective whistled.
The police dog Karl rushed over upon hearing the sound, not afraid of the swamp man who was much taller than himself, and took the initiative to attack the wetland knight on the left.
Taking advantage of Karl helping him to entangle an enemy, Pinkerton quickly rushed to the wetland knight on the right, stabbing with his sword.
The boggard quickly blocked the rapier with a mace.
At the moment when the weapons of the two sides collided, Pinkerton suddenly raised his hand and fired a shot!
The last bullet in the reel magazine hit the boggard man's face, and a cloud of scarlet fireworks exploded in the night.
quack? !
The boggard man who was shot in the face screamed, dropped his weapon, covered his face with his hands, and staggered back.
Pinkerton took the opportunity to chase after him, piercing his throat with a sword!
After dealing with the opponent in front of him, Pinkerton did not dare to relax. He reloaded the bullets in the revolver as quickly as possible, and turned around to help Carl deal with the remaining bogman warrior.
"Odaa!"
Suddenly there was a strangely pronounced roar behind him, as if he was chanting a mantra.
At the same time, Pinkerton found that the aquatic plants under his feet were growing crazily, dense spikes sprouted from the edges of the leaves, like countless living saw blades, entangled towards his legs.
Fortunately, Pinkerton is a high-level ranger, and his professional ability "walking through the forest" can prevent him from being restrained by these crazy plants.
Leaping out of the grass affected by the magic power, Mr. Detective glanced back hurriedly, looked at Gumodo, the elder of the swamp man, and immediately realized that it was this old monster who cast a spell to attack him just now.
"Damn human, dare to destroy the sacred trial ceremony, use your life to atone for it!"
Elder Gumoduo pointed his stick at Pinkerton, the skull on the head of the stick glowed with golden light, and a surging wave of magic power spewed out.
Pinkerton immediately noticed that the distribution of magic nets around him was violently turbulent. He was secretly surprised but also a little confused. He couldn't determine what spell Elder Gumoduo had released with the bone staff just now.
"Mr. Pinkerton, get out of that water!"
Through the telepathic connection, Joan's urgent warning echoed in Pinkerton's mind.
His heart trembled, and then he noticed that the shallow water under his feet was only one foot deep, and it was rising rapidly. In the blink of an eye, the water level had risen to his waist.
Pinkerton hurriedly waded through the water, trying to escape back to shore before the rising water completely submerged him.
Elder Gumoduo sneered and waved the bone staff, arousing the magic power in the staff again, controlling the stagnant water to create a vortex, like a prison formed by torrents, firmly attracting Pinkerton who was struggling in the water, making him unable to escape.
In the grass not far away, Joan stood up and aimed his gun at the bogman elder who was facing away from him. At the same time as he pulled the trigger, he activated the "Insensitivity Art" enchanted by the pistol.
"Nucumna!"
The crisp gunshots overwhelmed this incantation that symbolized the deprivation of the senses.
The lead bullet bombarded Elder Gumoduo's broad back, penetrated the leather armor and slippery and tough skin, and embedded in the back muscles, causing no serious damage.
However, the negative energy attached to this small lead bullet directly erodes the sensory and vocal organs of Elder Gumoduo through the barrier of flesh and blood.
Enduring the severe pain in his back, the old swamp man stood up with his stick, and shuddered three times in a row. Later, he was surprised to find that he could no longer hear the movement around him, and he could not make a sound from his dry throat.
This sudden blow made him lose his focus on casting spells, and the vortex that trapped Ted Pinkerton disappeared, and the water level raised by the magic also quickly fell.
Elder Gumoduo endured the pain in his back and turned his head with difficulty, his swollen eyes could not hide his horror.
The human boy behind him, the one who injured himself with a spell just now, and made himself deaf and dumb?
Anger and annoyance appeared alternately on Elder Gumoduo's face. He deeply regretted being too careless, and was plotted against by a brat.
However, it was too late to repent now. Before he regained the ability to speak, he could not cast spells normally, so he jumped into a nearby hot spring, sank quickly, and buried himself in the thick mud layer at the bottom of the pool. save yourself.
For the time being, Joan couldn't care less about chasing and killing Elder Gumoduo, because he saw that the remaining group of swamp people "Wetland Knights" were holding up maces, riding giant toads, and jumping to support.
Joan quickly observed the overall situation of the battlefield.
About a hundred feet in front of him on the left, Pinkerton had just helped the police dog Carl knock down a swampman. In addition to the elder Gumoduo who hid in the pool, there are still eight enemies on the battlefield, not counting their horsemen. Take the giant toad.
At this time, the eight "wetland knights" had been divided into two groups, four of them rushed towards Pinkerton and Karl, and the remaining four knights went straight to Joan and approached.
The positions of the four knights are relatively scattered. Considering that the giant toad has amazing jumping ability, it can easily jump over spider webs or other traps created by magic. Once they approach, Joan will be in danger. .
Thoughts swirled in his mind, and Joan's first thought was to become a Yingman and fly into the air, using the air superiority to "prostitute" the group of big toads.
However, in a second thought, he thought of a more effective tactic, so he took out a ball of gel that wrapped his eyelashes, quickly made a spell-casting gesture, and cast an "invisibility spell" on himself, and quietly retreated into the dense grass.
The four wetland knights on the opposite side looked at a loss as they watched Joan disappear out of thin air.
After hesitating for a while, the boggards realized that the enemy might be hiding with the help of magic, so they ordered the giant toad to approach the grass and search carefully.
"Invisibility" helped Joann get enough preparation time.
He squatted halfway in the grass, first blessed himself with the third-level spell "Heroism", then unzipped the zipper on the side of his belt, and pulled out a metal tube the size of his little finger.
While recuperating in the hot spring town, Qiao An modified the "gorgeous belt".
This modification does not involve enchanting, but uses tailoring techniques to sew a row of leather slots similar to "bullet chains" on the outside of the belt. It is usually closed with a metal zipper, and can be opened with a light pull when needed.
