"Oh! God, this shouldn't be like this!" The lion held his head and howled, "Who can explain it to me? I really didn't mean it!"
"This kind of unfortunate thing happened twice in a row. If you didn't mean it, it was because the porcelain man was touching porcelain... Oh~ I like the word 'porcelain touching', and it couldn't be more appropriate to use it here!" Nick shrugged.
Since the "curse of indifference" was lifted, the Tin Woodman has obviously become much more talkative, just like the lion whose curse was removed, from extreme timidity to the other extreme of carelessness and recklessness.
Ma Yun ran to the lion and used the "repair technique" twice in succession to repair the two broken ceramic figures as new.
The scarecrow also ran over and gently lifted up a repaired ceramic figure and straightened it.
"Thank you, Miss Gale, and Vita, everything should be fine now!"
The lion wiped off the cold sweat, quickly lifted up another repaired ceramic figure, and said to the large group of activated ceramic figures approaching: "Look! Your compatriots have recovered, so there is no need for you to lose your temper with me.
!”
As he spoke, he casually patted the ceramic man who had just been helped up.
Snap!
Dimitri was dumbfounded as he watched the ceramic figure slip through his fingertips and fall into pieces again.
Huh? This...isn't it?!
He didn't know whether he should blame it on his own indiscretions, or whether he was struck by the curse of bad luck again after getting rid of the curse of timidity.
The group of activated ceramic people didn't care at all about the excuses and remedies from the unexpected visitors. They waved their fists and beat the lion crazily.
Poor Dimitri lay on the ground with his head in his arms and was beaten and kicked.
He thought he would tolerate it for a while and wait until these activated ceramic figures had beaten them enough and calmed down, then they would forgive him for his unintentional mistake.
However, the other party seemed to have no intention of stopping, just like the pendulum of a fully wound clock, beating the lion with its fists according to a fixed rhythm, refusing to give up.
The lion couldn't bear it anymore, and finally jumped up with an angry roar, facing an activated ceramic figure directly opposite, waving its claws to fight back.
Bang! Bang!
The lion's claw hit the smooth and hard ceramic hard, causing two concave cracks.
At the same time, Dimitri also felt his claws hurt from the shock.
This made him even more unbearable and angry, and his bestiality arose. He roared and rushed forward, using all his strength to push the injured activated ceramic man to the ground, trampling and biting him.
"olvar!"
Gao Fei put on a "warlock mask", chanted a mantra symbolizing "plants", waved his hand and released the "entanglement technique", entangling all the activated ceramic figures on the street to prevent them from approaching Dimitri.
The activated ceramic figure, which was being beaten crazily by Dimitri, had large spiderweb-like cracks on its body. Through the holes, it could be seen that it was solid.
What makes Gao Fei even more horrified is that the activated ceramic man is not only solid, but also has lifelike internal organs, bones and other structures exposed in his body - except that the texture is ceramic, all other aspects are no different from a living person.
Gao Fei and Ma Yun exchanged glances.
The same speculation arose in both of their minds.
As a cheap and fragile low-level construct, there is really no need to make the base material of the activated ceramic man so delicate.
For example, Scarecrow Vita, as well as reactive armor, including Tin Man Nick, their base materials are ordinary scarecrows and full-body plate armor.
Vita's belly is stuffed with straw, while Nick's belly is simply hollow, which not only saves construction costs, but also makes it lighter.
The same common sense of craftsmanship does not apply to the activated ceramic figures of Patla Fort.
These ceramic figures are not just empty shells. There are also porcelain flesh, bones and organs under the skin. Such a delicate craft will inevitably lead to a surge in costs, but will not bring any practical benefits. Does this make sense?
"Brother Fei! Sister Feng! Any sane mage will not waste his energy on carefully carving the internal organs of ceramic figures... These ceramic figures are probably more than just ceramic products."
Ma Yun was about to speak but stopped.
Gao Fei understood her intention.
These overly lifelike ceramic figures were probably not made of clay, but were once living people of flesh and blood!
For unknown reasons, their flesh and blood bodies were turned into ceramics by magic, and a small part of them were activated by activation spells, eventually becoming activated ceramic figures.
Just when he was secretly speculating, a roar suddenly came from beside him!
Turning his head to look, Gao Fei was surprised to see that the activated ceramic figure whose head was bitten off by a lion exploded on its own!
It was as if there was explosives inside the body, and the shock wave generated at the moment of explosion blew the strong lion away.
Countless sharp ceramic shards sputtered all over the sky!
The Tin Man and the Scarecrow hurried forward and used their painless bodies to construct their bodies. Gao Fei, Jiang Feng and Ma Yun stood behind them to block the flying ceramic shrapnel.
When the explosion subsided, Vita shook off the porcelain shards stuck on his body, and then called Nick to run over and rescue Dimitri, dragging the reckless lion back with blood dripping from his body.
Jiang Feng quickly used "spontaneous medical treatment" to treat Dimitri's injuries and stop the bleeding.
Ma Yun was also there to help, carefully pulling out pieces of blood-stained ceramic shards from the lion's body.
"Oh, I was careless and didn't dodge! Then again, who knew that the hateful ceramic figures would explode on their own?" Dimitri lamented, "I broke two immovable ceramic figures before.
People, none of them exploded..."
"Not two, my forgetful friend. To be precise, before you were bombed, a total of three lifeless ceramic figures were shattered." Vita corrected him in a scholar's rigorous tone, "Because one of the ceramic figures was successively destroyed.
I was broken twice by you."
"I have to suspect that asking Master Oz to lift the 'Curse of Cowardice' for our friend Dimitri may be a wrong decision." Nick carried the ax and complained coldly, "We learned from what happened to Dimitri.
The lesson learned is that being careless is often worse than being timid!"
"What a coincidence, dear Nick, I don't think you should lift the curse!" The lion stroked the healing scar on his forehead and glared at the Tin Woodman with a look of resentment, "Since you have been lifted from the curse of indifference,
’, he becomes talkative and sarcastic, which is a more serious side effect than recklessness!”
"What about me?" Scarecrow asked the two friends eagerly, "Have I also undergone some changes after I was lifted from the curse?"
The lion glanced at him and said lazily: "As for you, you don't seem to have changed much. Of course, it may be that I was too careless and didn't notice it."
Nick reached a rare consensus with the lion: "Vita is still as weak as before. Only in front of the sparrows can he show some sense of existence."
"Ah...my two good friends, your evaluation of each other is so correct, both of them are profound insights!" Vita said bitterly.
