602: Chapter 271: Deadlock_1 602: Chapter 271: Deadlock_1 Since ancient tis, the spear and the shield have been opposite concepts that also inherently supplent and coexist with each other.
With the existence of Thunder Curse, naturally a Dodging Thunder Curse was born.
The Fire Curse led to the Water Curse and Ice Curse.
There are spells that conjure gales, and others that extinguish wind and stop breathing.
Where there is a Binding Spell, there is an ‘Anti-Binding Curse’.
The common Anti-Binding curse, a kind of Avatar Curse, involves swapping positions with an object, replacing the object of the binding curse with a puppet.
Among them, the most famous is the ‘Cicada Sloughing’ spell.
With the continuous innovation and developnt of various magic theories, more and more Anti-Binding curses were created by wizards.
These include the Slippery Curse for bound objects, the Wilt Curse and Crushing Curse for vines, as well as the high-level transformation spells that can only be used by many senior registered wizards, and so on.
‘Flee and Flee’ is a comprehensive Anti-Binding curse.
This spell originates from the ancient spell ‘Peach and Tender’ which was created by ancient Druid wizards to promote plant growth, making the plants’ branches and leaves more lush, and causing them to have more vivid blooms.
However, with the developnt of modern magic theories, wizards found that by changing the key elents and bytes of an enclosed spell like this, it can have a completely opposite or unexpected effect.
So ‘Peach’ is changed into ‘Escape’, and a spell for planting becos exclusively a spell for escape.
The full version of ‘Flee and Flee, Blaze its Glory’ can counteract almost all Bind type spells, and while helping the wizard escape the binding spell, it also creates a burning flower as a substitute, causing trouble for the enemy.
As was the case with Xin Fat Man.
When Zheng Qing finished reciting the spell, Xin Fat Man suddenly felt a release in tension, and his vision blurred.
By the ti he ca back to his senses, he was next to the hunting team leader.
He turned back and looked at the place where he had just been trapped.
What was bound by those giant roots had turned into a huge burning flower.
The orange-red flas roared and rolled, unreservedly releasing their light and heat, burning everything around that was tying it, making bubbling noises.
A rich burning sll rose and spread, and a faint scream ca from the depths of the woods.
Even the vines that were attacking Xiao Xiao and Zhang Ji Xin shrank back under the glare of the fire, retreating.
“Starting a fire in the woods?!” Xiao Xiao’s shocked voice sounded imdiately: “Are you planning to roast or smoke yourself?”
“Let’s retreat first!” The main hunter of Absolution grabbed him and ran hard towards where Zheng Qing was.
“Or, should we leave this forest first?” Xin Fat Man’s weak voice rang out from behind Zheng Qing.
“If possible.” Zheng Qing speculate, casually glancing back: “If we tried to get out from the start, we probably wouldn’t have faced too many obstacles.
But now…”
He shook his head, without saying more, and called back the Five Elents Bagua Array Charm that had spread to the outer periter.
“Plant transford demons tend to be gentler compared to their relatives.” Xiao Xiao’s voice sounded again: “But correspondingly, their thinking tends to be more simple and crude…
It may have just wanted so dessert, but ended up choking on it.
I guess, it might be a bit furious right now.”
“But even so, it hasn’t shown itself yet.” Zheng Qing shook his head: “It’s completely impossible for us to find the body of a Vine Monster in a forest…
But it will stick to us like a bug.”
“It’s really a stalemate.” Xiao Xiao nodded.
Almost as if to annotate their judgent, the vines, which had shrunk back for a few seconds, imdiately sprang back more aggressively.
Even the air roots covering the nearby banyan trees were involved, and were transford into wooden spears and lances, shooting towards the young wizards.
“The greatest terror in this world is the unknown…
Now that we know what it is, we can naturally find a corresponding solution.” Zheng Qing suddenly clenched the fingers he had raised, and shouted, “Five Elents Bagua Charm—Transform.”
Fifteen talismans flew back from the woods like arrows, landing in front of the young wizards before the wooden spears and lances, swirling around to construct a golden defensive light shield.
Almost instantly, the wooden spears and lances attacked like a storm, hitting the Five Elents Bagua Array with a bang, creating sparks.
Then, Zheng Qing stretched out his finger and pointed to the ground, “Conjure Steel!”
A piece of grey-green talisman paper imdiately jumped out of his grey cloth bag, falling with the wind and heavily hitting the soft humus under everyone’s feet.
A flash of green light, the dead branches and fallen leaves under their feet seed to have been coated with a layer of film in the dappled sunlight, shimring with a tallic glint.
Just a few seconds later, intense trembling began to resonate continuously under their feet.
Zheng Qing finally sighed in relief—for the ti being, every attack of the vine monster had been neutralized.
“Excellent choice.” Xiao Xiao complinted, stuffing the turtle shell he had just taken out back into his pocket, and then flipped open his notebook.
“That was fucking scary!” Zhang Ji Xin tightened the fist weapon in his hand.
Despite his words, his face had no trace of fear, instead, it was flushed with an excited expression, “I just don’t know if my fist can kill this damned Vine Monster!”
“Looking at you, it’s as if you wish to be scared ten or eight tis every day.” Xin Fat Man slumped to the ground, panting as he retorted.
“It’s not the ti for you guys to take action yet.” After Zheng Qing prevented the main hunter’s request to fight, he took out his pocket watch, staring at the ticking pointer, he fell silent.
“So when am I supposed to act?” Zhang Ji Xin looked unhappy.
“Even if I don’t act, just by changing clothes, Xin Fat Man could bloody the field.”
‘Change clothes’ was referring to Xin Fat Man transforming into the Blue Giant—this is how the Absolution hunting team describes it.
“Wait till the necessary mont.” Zheng Qing shook his head to reject the question again: “We just started, we haven’t reached the point of bloodying the field…
The Five Elents Bagua Array, after changing its form, has better defense, but its effective duration is shorter.
And the Conjure Steel talisman can only last five minutes.”
“I only have one Conjure Steel talisman, and there’s not enough ti to draw another one.”
“Besides, continuously casting talismans does put so pressure on my current ntal state, I need ti to adjust slowly.”
“There are still three minutes and forty-nine seconds left before the defensive array completely wears off, everyone can continue to rest for two minutes and eleven seconds.
For other matters, just follow the plan.”
After he finished speaking, Zheng Qing put away his pocket watch, got into position, and directly closed his eyes, starting to practice ‘Unard’ moves in the defensive formation as if he was the only person present.
“Plan?” The Red face of the main hunter of Absolution turned purple from holding his breath, he looked blankly at Xiao Xiao who was next to him: “Do we have such a plan?”
Xiao Xiao shrugged, took out his brush, licked the tip of the brush, and ambiguously said: “He is the team leader, if he says we have it, then we have it.”
