Chapter Thirty-Three: Living Objects/Flying Holy Book
Alarmed by the gunshots that came from nowhere and the painful screams that seemed to come from someone else being shot, the mob dispersed. It seemed as if they would be shot at randomly if they stayed here for just one more second.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Gunshots and screams echoed in Fengge Square where there was no Fengge.
The fragile pillars of order collapsed.
confusion.
In the chaos, Jacks took the opportunity to break out of the siege with his two children, covered in rainwater.
"Little Chabulon, in order to drive them away, what magic did you use, and how many people would probably die?"
In his past adventures, he had never seen any magic that used his hand as a gun to fire air bullets.
Air pistols look too much like a circus magician's trick.
Jax's question also made Chabron relax. Although he acted viciously, since Jax is still a little bit worried about the townspeople, it shows that he actually retains basic reason and judgment in his anger.
Of course he showed murderous intent, but the invisible murderous intent was a controllable deterrent rather than uncontrollable rage.
Hearing Jacks' question, Chabron smiled. As he ran, he dispelled the [amplification] gain on his body, and whispered his secret to Jacks and An Luo beside him:
"actually······"
----------
[Thumbunctious], this simple trick is similar to the [Magic Tricks] of arcane spell casters such as wizards, warlocks, and magicians, and the [Druid Tricks] of druids.
Among them, [Magic Trick] focuses on fancy tricks and is more like a gorgeous magic show; [Druid Trick] can accurately predict future weather by driving the natural spirit, command flowers to bloom, and seeds to break their shells.
And [thaumaturgy] is used to... play the role of a magic stick, pretending to be a magician.
Therefore, this trick has functions such as "amplifying one's voice", "changing the color of the iris", "making the flame suddenly dim and flickering", "making the door open and close by itself", "making the earth tremble slightly when he speaks", "
It has various effects such as making the unknown crows echo with their sarcastic laughter.
What Chabron used just now was [Foley], a branch effect of [Thumborg].
Ordinary magic stick casters will create heavy thunder, endless crows or ominous whispers to enhance the atmosphere. But Chabron used it to simulate repeated gunshots and screams. Then match it with his own
The gesture creates the illusion of shooting in the void.
Intimidation is the magician's best weapon.
Admittedly, this is effective because everyone is already frightened, and they are not professionally trained soldiers.
When the emotions of the group are mobilized, the truth no longer matters——
Even if someone points out the pastor's trick now, it will be of no use.
----------
"Actually, there is no gun at all - Uncle Jacks thinks too highly of Chabarron. These sounds are all falsetto created by magic. Except for the stampede caused by chaos, no one will be hurt."
His hand also pretended to "shoot" around to disperse the chaotic crowd.
"Little Chabulon, should I say that you are worthy of being the priest of the Eternal Light, the God of Magic? You are better at using spells skillfully than the priests in my previous adventure team. She is the priest of [Deathrattle Maiden], although she can
There are dozens of skeleton archers with extraordinary strength, but she will definitely not be your opponent when she first masters the power of magic." Jacks said as he ran.
The man ran, followed closely by the blond and silver-haired teenagers. The three strangers rushed through the rain curtains that were straight due to the lack of wind, and rushed out of the crowd.
However, just as the three were about to leave Fengge Square, something changed suddenly!
Although the townspeople dispersed in a hurry, no one dared to stop them. But behind them, bursts of sound broke through the air.
Human beings will be unable to implement orders and throw traditions and rules on paper because of fear, but this may not be the case for inhuman creatures.
It’s a tin book!
They were completely activated, breaking free from the hands of the holder, rushing out of the package, and even a copy flew out of the robe of Officer Follett who fell on the ground.
Tin books flapped their pages, using the pages and covers as wings to soar into the sky.
The "flying eagle" fluttering its steel wings passed through the rain curtain that was straight due to the lack of wind, and attacked the fleeing man and two children.
Previously, the iron book dropped by the Warlock Mayor Toffler was removed from the scene in this way.
The raindrops hit the metallic glossy cover and dispersed due to the "fluttering" movements of Feishu.
The iron book that spreads its wings is faster than the runner with two feet!
Seeing that they were about to catch up with him, the young priest clenched the holy symbol in his hand, and the holy light condensed on it.
----------
Chabron had long expected that the iron books would have the ability to move on their own after being activated, otherwise the iron books left by the previous warlocks would not have disappeared. And he was not surprised that they had the ability to fly——
After activation, the Iron Book becomes a construct similar to [Activated Object].
Obviously, if a book, a long sword, or a wooden board needs to be moved after being activated, it will definitely, of course, absolutely, definitely, not be used to "use the open pages of the book as feet to crawl on the ground" or "use the handle of the long sword to move."
Such an unsightly moving posture as "the feet are jumping on the ground".
In various fantasy stories and games, although activated armor and tables move with their feet, for activated objects that are flat enough to have no feet, flying is a natural privilege——
It seems that the audience naturally understands that the activated sword/coin/blank paper/mobile phone can fly, or at least jump very high, instead of choosing the unsightly walking method.
Therefore, although it may sound strange, it is an obvious fact in fantasy stories that attaching two feet to a sword is an effective way to prevent it from being activated and gaining the ability to fly.
----------
The flying iron book is faster than the man and two children running on the ground.
The first few of them passed over the heads of the three of them, blocking their path and forcing the running strangers to stop.
The remaining dozen or so troops attacked from behind and surrounded them from both sides.
"The preliminary inference category should be [Constructed Creature], and most opponents are close enough..."
The activated iron books flapped their wings composed of metal covers and pages, and the raindrops falling straight down fell on their metal surfaces, making a crisp tinkling sound.
"But some of them are too far away and are not within the attack range..."
Chabron was measuring the distance between the farthest target and himself, judging whether [Dawn of Dawn] could wrap up all enemies at once.
"If they could get a few feet closer..."
Confrontation.
Facing the flying iron books surrounded on all sides, the divine radiance formed by the positive energy condensed on the holy symbol of eternal light in Shabbon's hand.
At this moment, changes suddenly occurred!
For the first time in many centuries, in Fengge Square, the sound of
