MTL - Dawn of the Grey Tower-Chapter 104 Take blood (below)
We already have too much water in our stories, in every sense of the word. From a material level, the nameless pool on the edge of this blank world is not a dangerous place at all, at best it is deeper.
As for why it is so deep? Cheese speculates that this is related to the volcanic ash formation seen in the distance before. Volcanoes are evidence of intense geological activity, and in areas where it once existed, geological structures are prone to unusual phenomena. This deep pool is likely to come from this, or it was washed here by a small opportunity.
This is not a geological study, and this is not a typical landform worth exploring in depth. The reason why the water here is different is entirely because there is a dragon in it, or rather, dragon blood.
There are all kinds of strange things that can be created here, and the ordinary body of water becomes extraordinary, extraordinary enough to swallow the gray-robed mage. As soon as he entered the water, Cheese felt tremendous pressure. He would not panic because he couldn't breathe. What really troubled the mage was the mobility of the worm after entering the water.
As a mollusk, the worm has no jointed bones in its body, which means that every part of its body can twist and shake, but it is more difficult to do in the air without the buoyancy of water. Cheese grasped this when he opened the wound on it, but now, the constraints brought by the air no longer exist.
It is impossible for the worm not to know the human being on its body. The behavior of the cheese extracting the dragon's blood is like using a thorny hook to drill into its body. Even the dullest creature will immediately perceive the source of the pain.
Most of their reactions to pain are also the same. Cheese only felt that his left arm was squeezed by two walls, and his bones and flesh were on the verge of exploding, and his body attached to the surface of the worm was also impacted by the water flow. The swing of the monster seems to be continuously thrown up and down. Dizziness and instinctive nausea come unexpectedly, but Cheese must not let them go. Interfering with spellcasting is second. What he relies on for underwater activities is the limited air in his chest. There will be no other ending than drowning.
Calm, control the body, suppress instinct. This is a very difficult thing to do. It is like forcing a sneeze that is about to come out to be suppressed, picking the throat so that there is no vomiting reaction, and not closing the eyes when the needle is close to the eye. To some extent, this is unconventional. If someone really trains to fight against his own physical instincts, it is okay to fail. If he succeeds, he will probably kill himself at an inexplicable time.
Besides, what's the benefit of being successful? Probably there is, at least it allows cheese to confront his discomfort head-on at this time, turning himself into a stone statue without internal organs and body structure, just drifting with the struggle of worms in the water. However, such a state cannot continue indefinitely.
Cheese initially trained himself against instinct in order to stabilize spellcasting. The battle between mages is not only in the contest of spells. If it is a mage who only pays attention to the power of spells, the cheese is sure that the opponent cannot use a single spell normally. In the battle of spellcasters, interference, countermeasures, guidance, and obstruction are more efficient and feasible than blindly increasing the power of defensive spells or the speed of attacking spells.
You must know that the cheese can recite the prayers of the other sect faster than the priests of the evil gods, so as to dedicate them to their own evil gods first. This is the part of the magic duel that is not taken seriously, but can really affect the battle situation. In order to prevent himself from becoming the person affected by these methods, the gray robes including Cheese have more or less undergone similar training.
The novel app that has been running stably for many years is comparable to the old version of the book chasing artifact, and the source-changing app used by old bookworms,]
A leech that has absorbed dragon blood is naturally not a mage, but the means of dealing with mages are equally important here. In addition to the pain of falling apart, cheese can also feel that the warm dragon's blood is getting closer to him.
Some people say that the dragon is a god, while others say that the dragon is a curse. The more the spell casters in the past, the more they understand the dragon, the more extreme they are on these two points of view. Even they will reverse at some point, the power of the dragon is so attractive that people can't help but think, if only they could become a dragon. The biggest taboo in Transfiguration, Dragon Transformation, comes from this.
At this time, feeling the dragon's blood that was getting closer to him, Cheese was also tempted. Strange isn't it? He obviously stayed with Migo for so long before, and even used the blood of the red dragon to make potions, but he never had the idea of integrating the power of the dragon into his body like this. Wait, whose idea is this? Is it the gray robe mage's, or the worm's?
"It turns out that you are so eager for it."
The cheese in the water can't speak, this sentence flashed in his mind, the act of drawing the dragon's blood by himself may be like taking away its most important treasure to the worm, UU reading www.uukanshu. com is no wonder it will desperately resist.
It's just that this can't slow down the cheese's speed at all. Dragon's blood is not a source of power for him. It is just a material, a material for making a key to go home. He needs it, it's as simple as that. Besides, it may not be a good thing for this bug to absorb all the dragon's blood.
Finally, before Cheese's conscious mold lake, his hands really touched something, which was neither so hot nor so noble. The real dragon's blood feels a bit like underground black grease. It doesn't make people feel sacred, but it's a bit disgusting.
The gray robe wanted something to get his hands on, and with a backhand slap, he pulled his left arm out of the worm's body. During this process, the bones felt uncontrollable pain, probably due to cracks. But it was worth it. The dark red water-insoluble droplet, half the size of a palm in his hand, was the reward for all his efforts.
Cheese held the half drop of dragon's blood tightly, and when he looked up, he saw the ugly mouthparts of the worm facing him, as if saying, "It's too cheap for you to just leave like this."
The robe on the mage's body trembled like a fish's fin, barely pushing him away from the path of the worm's attack, passing the overlord in the water. There is no need to fight now, returning to the shore is his victory. But if you just run away blindly, you can't escape.
Cheese turned his head and slid his right hand a few times in the water. Several vortices were born from his hands, setting off a large number of bubbles, forming a very confusing barrier. At the same time, the aquatic animal structure imitated by the robe is constantly pushing him to move, and the speed is no less than that of real fish.
The worm's big mouth broke through the air bubbles, but failed to approach the gray robe again. The snake-like monsters formed terrifying patterns in the water, but they didn't know that the thief they were looking for had already escaped and ascended to heaven.
