Chapter 30: I have driven a Gundam in my last life
Gao Fei turned around, gave Ma Yun a thumbs up through the transparent bulkhead, thanked her for her timely support, and then jumped onto the adjacent mechanical wrist.
Like walking on a tightrope, Gao Fei flew on the straight mechanical wrist.
In the blink of an eye, he ran straight to the sandworm along the bridge and slapped the second patch of magic-infused plaster on its back.
The sandworm, which was wrestling with the mechanical horn stone, felt someone stepping on its back, so it turned its head over and opened its huge scissor-like jaws, trying to pinch off the intruder on its back.
Before the sandworms can attack, Gao Fei uses a bonus action to perform "Retreat" and return to the original path.
At the same time, Ma Yun also received a message from Gao Fei through the astrolabe, and controlled the mechanical tentacles to loosen the gripping sandworm.
Just as one party in a tug-of-war suddenly let go, the moment the mechanical tentacles detached, the sandworm, which was still struggling to pull its tail backwards, was caught off guard. Under the action of inertia, it rolled backwards and happened to hit another nearby sandworm.
"úré!"
Gao Fei seizes the opportunity to detonate the bomb.
Amid the roar, flames surged!
Two more sandworms were killed on the spot.
At this time, the following seven sandworms were already approaching, surrounding the mechanical corner stones.
Ma Yun was sitting in the cabin, her pretty face tense, sweat dripping from her forehead, her eyes flashing, and her hands kept controlling the joystick.
The automatic defense mechanism of the mechanical corner stone is relatively dull. She has to manually operate the ten mechanical tentacles, multi-purpose, while resisting the ferocious siege of seven sandworms.
Jiang Feng realized that the situation was not good, so he quickly climbed out of the skylight, showed his two guns, and fired continuously to repel two sandworms trying to climb up and help Ma Yun share the pressure.
"Sister Feng! I'm coming!"
Suddenly a girl's voice came from behind.
Jiang Feng looked back at Ma Yun, who had just emerged from the skylight, frowned and asked her: "Xiaoyun! Why are you climbing up here if you don't stay in the cabin and operate the mechanical tentacle?"
"Oh! I have just rewritten the automatic defense command set of the mechanical corner stone. The efficiency of automatic combat has been at least doubled, and it is no worse than my manual operation!" Ma Yun replied.
"Ah... just in the blink of an eye, you rewrote the instruction set?"
Jiang Feng stared at Ma Yun in astonishment, and it took him a long time to utter a sigh:
"Xiaoyun...you must have driven a Gundam in your previous life!"
"Actually, they are not as powerful as you think!" Ma Yun smiled sheepishly, "The main reason is that the profession of weapon master is so powerful, and it comes with the skills of driving and modifying constructs!"
"Come up quickly and help me and Brother Fei deal with the sandworms."
Jiang Feng fired two more shots and found that Ma Yun was using the "Fireball Technique", and his expression changed.
"No, Xiaoyun! The enemy is too close, and you will be injured along with the mechanical corner stone!"
"It doesn't matter if it's accidentally injured, I can fix it myself!"
"Well, the repairman is tough when he talks."
Jiang Feng had no choice but to take two steps back to avoid being blown away by the fireball.
Artificers can only repair constructs, but they cannot repair dead people.
Ma Yun finished preparing to cast the spell and raised her hand with confidence.
In the sandworm gathering area, a bright spot suddenly appeared, expanded rapidly into a fiery red sphere, and exploded violently!
The sand and dust kicked up by the shock wave filled the air, and the deafening roar continued for a long time.
However, after this spectacular scene, the damage caused shocked Jiang Feng and Ma Yun.
hp-0!
hp-0!
hp-8!
hp-7!
Of the four sandworms affected by the "Fireball Technique", two were unscathed and the other two were only slightly injured.
"Ah? That's it? My fireball technique...can't be so weak?!"
Ma Yun was dumbfounded.
The "Fireball Technique" she just released with her own hands is exactly the same as the "Fireball Technique" poured into the plaster. Theoretically, it should be able to instantly kill or severely damage a full-blooded sandworm.
The damage caused in reality is very different from the two plaster bombs detonated by Gao Fei just now. What is going on?
Jiang Feng was stunned for a moment, then quickly opened the astrolabe and checked the battle records, and the confusion in his eyes turned into realization.
"The seven sandworms that will be chased later are naturally good at 'reflective dodge' and 'intuitive dodge'. If you use group attack magic like 'Fireball' to bombard them, the effect will definitely not be good!"
After hearing what she said, Ma Yun also understood what the problem was.
Under normal circumstances, a creature hit by the "fireball" will suffer half of the damage even if it passes the reflex save.
However, creatures with the "Evasion" feat can avoid magical damage from group attacks by passing a reflex save.
Even if you fail a Reflex save, you only take half the damage.
In addition, the sandworm can activate "Intuitive Dodge" as a reaction action, which again reduces the damage by half.
When the sandworm is hit by "Fireball", if it activates "Reflex Dodge" and "Intuitive Dodge" together, even in the worst case, it will only suffer 1/4 of the damage.
"Direct bombing doesn't work, Fei Ge has to apply plaster to be reliable!" Ma Yun said depressedly.
Gao Fei put the plaster on the sandworm, which was equivalent to the "Fireball Technique" detonating from zero distance, leaving no room for the opponent to evade. "Reflective Dodge" and "Intuitive Dodge" were all useless.
A sandworm, attracted by the explosion, raised its head from the yellow sand.
Just as he was about to pounce, Jiang Feng raised his hand and shot him in the head.
Sandworms are so vital that they survived being shot in the head.
When the blood spattered, Jiang Feng activated the "Magic Fighting Technique" and blasted out a "scorching light" from his palm, hitting the sandworm straight away.
Unlike "Fireball", the hit or miss of single-target ray magic such as "Seering Glory" depends on the attack roll and has nothing to do with saving throws.
The moment the sandworm was hit, even though he used "intuitive dodge" to reduce the damage by half, he was still beaten to the point of death and slumped on the sand.
Jiang Feng shot him in time and killed him.
Then, she waved her hand and shot out spider silk, wrapped it around the neck of another sandworm, flew up like a swing, turned over in the air, and landed lightly on the sandworm's back.
Jiang Feng had ridden a sandworm in the monk module and received the reward profession of "Sandworm Knight". He had no fear of the thick and ferocious giant insect under his feet. No matter how the sandworm twisted, he still stood firm.
On the back of the giant insect.
With a murderous look on his gorgeous face, Jiang Feng put away his pistol, held the Twilight Sword instead, and pierced the gap in the sandworm's spine with his backhand sword, going deep into the spinal cord!
"Lie down for me!"
hp-17!
hp-23!
The first damage number comes from the Twilight Sword enhanced by "God-given Weapons" and "Weapon Proficiency".
The second damage number is the second level of "Injury" added to "Magic".
The two combined were just enough to instantly kill the sandworm at Jiang Feng's feet.
There are five living sandworms left on the battlefield.
The mechanical corner stone is one against five, with each two tentacles entangled with a sandworm, making the scene unbeatable.
Gao Fei also rushed back to support him. When he saw that the enemy was too close, he continued to apply plaster and blast, which might accidentally injure his own people, so he switched to holding two guns and hid in a place where the sandworms could not reach and opened fire.
