Plugging the ears with silencer mushrooms can certainly block the singing of the harpies, but in this case, everyone will become deaf and it will be difficult for them to communicate with each other.
After thinking about it, Gao Fei felt that this problem was not as serious as it seemed at first glance.
The Scarecrow and Tin Woodman in the adventure team are constructed creatures that are naturally immune or control effects. They do not need to plug their ears and will not be confused by the singing of the harpy.
Gao Fei, Jiang Feng and Ma Yun are all players and can communicate through the team channel of Astrolabe, so communication is basically unaffected.
As for the lion Dimitri, as well as the NPC miners including Gas, after plugging their ears with mushrooms, they can only communicate with each other through gestures.
"Brother Fei! Sister Feng! I just received the mission prompt, which asks us to take a short rest in the mine to recover our physical strength and magic value, and then the next plot will be triggered." Ma Yun said.
"Just spend the energy of the astrolabe and skip the short rest."
Jiang Feng hasn't had enough of fighting yet and can't wait to enter the second battle of this chapter.
"Before taking a break, take a look at this!"
Gao Fei sent the Harpy's data to the team channel.
"Rich man, we are likely to be chased by a large group of harpies next. Even if we plug our ears with mushrooms to avoid being confused by the harpies' songs, it will not be an easy task to eliminate these flying monsters."
Frankly speaking, Gao Fei's current role as "Magic Stealer" is somewhat worse than "Imitator" at the same level in terms of overall strength, and the difference is mainly reflected in comprehensiveness.
If he is now a "copycat" and can transform into a tornado, it will be much easier to deal with the bird demon.
The problem now is that Ma Yun is the only one on our side who can use the magic shoes to cast the "Flying Technique", and there are only five energy shots left, which is not enough to make all teammates fly. How can we fight against the harpies who are born to fly?
"Since we can't fly, we'll try to pull the harpy out of the air and have a duel on the ground!" Ma Yun said thoughtfully.
"That sounds great, the question is how to do it?"
Jiang Feng asked.
"Well..." Xiao Ma rolled his eyes, "At the moment, I can only think of two tactics."
"As expected of you, you are really smart. It's great if you can think of two. Please tell me how to do it."
"Sister Feng, did you ever catch butterflies when you were a child?"
"Oh... Xiaoyun, if I guess correctly, you are going to use the old method of 'activating fishing nets' again, right?"
Ma Yun smiled and shook her head.
"I can only control one activation net. It is too inefficient to use it to catch birds. Moreover, remote control of the activation net requires precious concentration. This is not possible. My spellcasting concentration must be used in more critical places."
"But Sister Feng, you are not completely wrong. My bird-catching tactics do require the use of nets, many nets."
"Spider Web Technique?" Jiang Feng showed off the magic ring on his hand, "My spider silk ring still has 4 rounds of energy, which can be used to release the 'Spider Web Technique'!"
"Unfortunately, my 'law thief' did not steal the 'spider web' from the richest man and could not participate in the bird-catching operation."
Gao Fei said with some regret.
Now stealing the "Spider Web Technique" from Ma Yun will result in Ma Yun herself being unable to cast this spell within that day, and judging from the development of the plot, the protagonist group no longer has time to take a long rest.
Grain
"Strategic" spellcasters such as "Mage" and "Spell Thief" rely particularly on intelligence and anticipation.
If you lack complete intelligence, misjudge the enemies you may encounter next or the difficulties that need to be overcome, the spells you have prepared will not be used, and the spells you urgently need are not prepared, the situation will be very embarrassing.
"Brother Fei, Sister Feng, you don't need to hunt the birds, there are ready helpers here!"
Ma Yun smiled mysteriously, turned around and called Gas over, asking him to select the ten candidates who were best at using slings among the dwarf workers.
Gas quickly completed the task and found nine dwarfs carrying homemade slings, and one of the candidates was himself.
"Miss Wizard, we are all good stone-throwers in Wenji Township!" Gass patted his chest to assure himself, "Any one of us can use stones to knock down walnuts hanging on the treetops, and we will definitely hit the target!"
"Very well, Mr. Gas, now I will give each of you a stone bullet infused with magic power. Before throwing these stone bullets, you must remember to recite the activation spell correctly."
Ma Yun used the artificer's professional ability "Item Infusion" to inject "Spider Web" into the ammunition of the dwarf slingers.
A total of 50 magic points were spent to create ten magic stone bullets storing "Spider Web" and distributed them to the slingers.
After the instructions, Xiao Ma activated the energy of the astrolabe and quickly skipped the short break.
As soon as the game screen changes, the story stage switches to the Castle of the Witch of the West.
The scene is frozen inside the dark tower at the top of the castle. The small room is filled with the clicking sound of gears turning, and the faint squeaking of small animals.
The owner of the castle, the Witch of the West, who ranks second among the four great witches in the Kingdom of Oz, is standing in the tower, looking in the mirror.
The crystal round mirror hanging on the wall reflected Theodora's figure.
This old witch was wearing a golden robe, with a stooped back, a wrinkled face, and withered yellow hair, like a ball of fluffy grass lacking moisture.
The hands were like bird's claws, so thin that the veins were exposed, and the nails were filled with sand, as if they had never washed their hands in this life.
The old witch didn't mind her ugly face. She grinned, revealing two pairs of golden front teeth.
She looked in the mirror and carefully observed her big gold teeth, and suddenly frowned in displeasure.
"Damn it! Looks like the two little mice I had for lunch weren't fresh enough. Their bones left ugly scratches on my front teeth!"
The old witch muttered and turned around, walking to the table by the window.
There was a huge iron cage on the table. The bottom of the cage was a tray covered with fine sand, with two rows of toy-like cabins, and a metal roller connected to a clock bearing.
In the iron cage, there were two dozen hamsters, all running hard on the rollers.
The old witch squinted her eyes and observed her pets through the gap in the iron cage, showing a satisfied smile.
She opened the cage lid, put her skinny palm like a bird's claw inside, picked out a plump snow-white hamster, and picked it off the wheel.
The hamster seemed to have a premonition of his fate, kicking and struggling in the old witch's hands, squeaking and screaming.
However, the poor little thing could not escape the old witch's grasp, and all its struggles were in vain.
Next to the hamster cage, there is an exquisite wooden box containing sparkling diamond chips.
The old witch pinched the hamster and dipped it in the wooden box, making the hamster chubby and its furry head covered with emery. Then she brought it to her mouth, used the hamster as a toothbrush and the emery as tooth powder to polish her gold teeth.
