Chapter 485: The iron-headed gryphon, the barbarian orcs attack [5K]
As a high-level epic item, the effect of [Time Stop Orb] is very powerful after it is activated.
Within the time stop range, both kinetic energy and potential energy will be completely suspended.
Even space is like this, all rules are frozen.
The corresponding magic elements no longer flow.
"call…"
“It’s so exciting to ride a horse!”
"The jumping machine is nothing compared to free-falling on a gryphon."
Zong Shen's forehead was covered with cold sweat and he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Then he didn't waste any time and jumped off the back of the gryphon using both hands and feet.
Below is a dense forest, and the lower abdomen of Wind Ridge and Blood Roar has touched the tree crown.
He nimbly passed through the treetops and stepped heavily on the ground.
Two large pits were dug out of the soft ground that had been shaded by tree crowns all year round.
After Zong Shen stabilized his figure a little, he took out a strange-looking object.
The appearance looks like a large crossbow, but it fires not a crossbow arrow but a silver-white ball. The ball has a tip, about the size of a grapefruit, and a rope as thick as a chopstick at the end.
, was tied to Zong Shen's belt, and now the sphere is quietly sitting on the launch slot, waiting to be fired.
There are three silver-white spheres on a launch slot.
In addition, there are some peculiar mechanical structures behind the string machine, which can achieve continuous firing.
This is the [Magic Net Throwing Device] that he obtained by redeeming points before. The sphere is the matching net, which can temporarily restrain overlord-level creatures.
Zong Shen didn't bother to study more, grabbed the net-throwing device, and aimed at the sky through the gap in the treetops.
In the time-stop state, all objects passing through his hands can move.
This was already verified when the raven saint Safuri was rescued.
So he doesn't have to worry about being able to launch the net, or whether he can drag it down.
After taking aim for a while, he decisively chose to fire.
The time-stop effect waits for no one, and now nearly 20 seconds have passed.
Delaying for too long will easily lead to the separation of space inside and outside the time-stop area due to long-term differences in time flow rates.
"call out!"
The silver-white sphere flew out and accurately hit the head of Fengji·Xuehou. It bloomed in an instant and turned into a silver-white catching net, completely covering its body.
Only part of the wings are not covered, but this kind of net is somewhat similar to a spider web.
It's soft, light, and has strong fit, and it's enough to cover most of its body.
Zong Shen started to pull hard and pulled this huge thing to the ground, crushing several big trees in the process. After losing the terrible kinetic energy of free fall, the height difference of several meters was nothing.
Zong Shen quickly stopped the time-stop state and finally ended it thirty seconds ago.
Because of the cover of the woods, he could not see the boundary of the stop area.
If he could look down from a high altitude, he would be able to find that black lines like stretch marks had appeared about one kilometer away from him.
These lines were somewhat illusory, swaying and trembling. As everything returned to normal, these lines were gradually smoothed out by space.
These are the spatial fragmentation caused by the difference in time flow rate.
Every vibration of those lines is the squeezing of space.
Once ordinary people are affected, they will be divided and dismembered in the squeeze of space.
"Finally done..."
After the timeout ends, everything around him returns to normal.
The ground also became a mess.
This guy's size is really huge.
Even if it is dragged down, a clearing will be created.
There were downturned trees everywhere, as well as broken branches and green leaves.
This guy is not dead yet, but he is almost there, with more than 400 health points left.
The back half of the beautiful white scale feathers on his neck had been smashed to pieces by Zong Shen's iron fist.
The thick neck was beaten with a sunken wound several meters long, and the flesh inside had turned into mud and was mixed with many broken scales.
As the saying goes, you can beat the old master to death with random punches. With enough strength and the use of both fists, you can really hammer the flesh and blood into pulp.
Such wounds are more shocking than ordinary cuts and axes.
In addition, the trident is still inserted into its front abdomen.
This position is relatively high, close to the neck and upper body, so there is no secondary damage when falling.
Now this tough-headed guy is in a semi-conscious state.
Zong Shen raised his head and looked at its big eyes like traffic lights, which were almost out of focus.
"I didn't expect it to be so difficult to tame!"
"Is it really necessary to waste that [Pet Contract (Purple)]?"
He murmured to himself, feeling a little headache looking at this big guy.
Just now, Fengji·Xuehou almost took a posture of dying together.
During the free fall, Zong Shen had already felt its determination.
This is not just a super difficult maneuver, but a real attempt to kill the fish and defeat the net.
Since everyone is determined to die, there is no point in taming it through coercion and inducement.
"Oh, it seems I can't save what I should use!"
"This guy, why do you think your head is so strong?"
"Wouldn't it be great to follow me to the top of the Golden Eagle Life?"
Zong Shen sighed softly and said nonchalantly.
He first climbed up to the wound on his neck nimbly, and looked at the wound that was almost as big as two or three bathtubs in confusion.
After hesitating for a moment, he took out two or three small bottles of Luna Spring and poured it on its wound in the form of external application. After the pure Luna Spring was mixed with the blood at the wound, dots of silver highlights appeared.
These are the healing powers of Luna Spring.
Then, he turned over again, jumped in front of Fengji·Xuehou, reached out and pulled out the trident inserted in its front abdomen.
With this pull, another cloud of blood rained down, and its health dropped again by more than a hundred points.
Fortunately, the Moon God Spring has also begun to take effect, and the HP of Wind Ridge and Howling Blood is slowly recovering.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Before it was out of the dying state, Zong Shen took out the [Pet Contract (Purple)].
Because Wind Ridge·Howl Blood is in an unconscious coma, the impact of its own subjective thoughts on the success rate of the contract is almost 0.
Zong Shen can only try his luck this time.
I hope that the basic success rate plus the bonus of its non-resistance state when it is about to die can achieve the contract as expected.
Thinking of this, he started to activate the contract.
The [Pet Contract] in his hand suddenly turned into several chains, linking him with the Dragon Veined Griffin.
A special connection is gradually being established, and those chains are becoming more and more solid.
Zong Shen felt a little nervous, this time it was not as smooth as when he tamed Bajie.
In comparison, the process is simply full of ups and downs.
However, the strength of Fengji·Xuehou is not on the same level as Bajie.
The former is a powerful overlord-level ferocious beast, while the latter is just a captain-level blood-tusked wild boar.
From a purely hierarchical perspective, the dragon-veined gryphon's status is equivalent to the overlord-level leader among the Bloodtusk Boars.
Zong Shen patiently waited for the outcome of the contract.
More than ten minutes have passed and the chain has been completely formed. It seems that this time the contract should be stable.
He breathed a sigh of relief and waited with peace of mind.
It's a little quiet in the forest, with the occasional sound of birds chirping.
It is now past five o'clock in the afternoon, and there is still more than an hour until dark.
The sun's rays were no longer dazzling, but began to turn slightly yellow, and even the earth was smeared with golden oil paint.
Facing the west, facing the direction of the sun, you can see the brilliant afterglow of the setting sun, which is as eye-catching as seeing a golden palace.
Zong Shen stood there and a few more minutes passed.
Perhaps because the level of the dragon-veined griffon is too high, the contract this time is also exceptionally long.
At this moment, Zong Shen had a flash of inspiration in his heart, and a strong warning sign appeared.
"Lock on nearby hostile targets!"
He called out in his heart without hesitation.
The feedback from the strategy module is extremely fast, almost acting on the neural level.
Not long after he sent out his thoughts, a gold label prompt appeared in front of him.
He turned his head and found that there were marks on the left, right and behind him.
These marks are at different distances and form a faint encirclement.
It is not yet known what kind of hostile creature it is, and Zong Shen has no time to ask.
Before these unknown creatures take action, he must be prepared.
Although his body was in a contracted state of being linked by chains, he just couldn't move around.
The hands are still free and the body can rotate in a small range.
Now he is alone, and cannot break the contract, nor will he break the contract.
Then all you can do is call in help!
He waved his hand and started [Summoning Ghouls] and [Summoning Pendragon's loyal guards].
Two ghouls with bright red flesh appeared first, blocking behind it under Zong Shen's instructions.
Then with four rays of light shining, four Pendragon loyal guards appeared.
Compared with ghouls, these Pendragon loyal guards are much tougher.
They are the personal guards of the Pendragon royal family, and they are also elite fifth-level shield and axe warriors.
These loyal warriors held heavy square shields that were as high as their chests, and carried a heavy chopping ax with a length of two meters and a half.
There is also a spear 30 centimeters long at the front end of the axe.
Wearing heavy armor, they are about two meters tall when fully armed. They are all carefully selected strong men, just like four iron towers holding shields and long axes guarding them.
This is the summoning skill that comes with [King Arthur's Ring of Dominance (Gold)].
It's just right for this occasion.
When the four Pendragon loyal guards appeared, Zong Shen suddenly felt a sense of security.
Through the golden mark, Zong Shen can roughly estimate the number of monsters nearby.
There are a total of 13 golden marks, scattered in all directions, and they seem to be in the ambush stage.
After Zong Shen summoned two ghouls and four Pendragon loyal guards.
The golden marks moved further away.
It seems that they are also watching the situation.
But just now Zong Shen had a warning sign in his heart. This is not a common situation.
It is enough to show that some of these thirteen guys can threaten his existence.
Taking advantage of the fact that the surrounding environment was basically stable, he began to ask about the strategy module.
"What kind of monsters are around?"
(They are a group of severely degraded barbarian orcs. They were once a branch of the ancient orc empire. After the end of the era, they were scattered across the continent and formed scattered small-scale tribes.
These guys have low intelligence, savage nature, and are distantly related to the current orc tribe.
Because of the interbreeding of inbreeding after dispersion, they have undergone significant degeneration)
Zong Shen quickly scanned the subtitles and already knew it in his mind.
There is no peace in the mountains and forests, it is the habitat of many creatures.
As for this barbarian orc, Zong Shen automatically classified it as a degenerated orc branch.
Judging from the way they ambush, although these barbarian orcs have low intelligence, they have not yet degraded to the level of unintelligent beasts.
They should be similar to goblins, with low intelligence plus basic organizational structure and hunting instincts.
But it does not rule out the possibility that there are wise men among the beastmen.
The wisdom of many ethnic groups does not come from innateness, but is awakened later in life.
This is the case with people such as shamans and witch doctors.
In any case, Zong Shen decided not to provoke them for the time being and to bluff them as long as he could.
Hiding in the defensive circle composed of ghouls and Pendragon loyal guards, Zong Shen felt a lot more at ease.
However, these are all summoned through summoning skills and have obvious timeliness.
Ghouls can exist for 10 minutes, and Pendragon loyalists can exist for 15 minutes.
In other words, if the contract is not completed within fifteen minutes at the latest, he will have to think of another way.
Currently, the ones with summoning skills include [Dragon-Slaying Heavy Sword] and [Power Demon Battle Armor].
In addition, he also had some fourth- and fifth-level spell scrolls on his body, as well as goblin bombs and flamethrowers.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Just when Zong Shen was worried, the surrounding barbarian orcs began to approach again.
Judging from their movement range in the golden circle marks, Zong Shen could feel that they were about to move.
Perhaps in the eyes of these guys, both Zong Shen and Fengji·Xuehou are just food.
Another five minutes passed, and Zong Shen's spirit gradually became tense.
Finally, the contract was reached, and the chains turned into purple halos and submerged into the bodies of Zong Shen and Dragon Veined Griffin respectively, turning into light groups that completely enveloped the huge Wind Spine and Roaring Blood.
"call…"
"Good guy, it's finally over."
Zong Shen wiped his helmet, as if wiping the sweat from his forehead through the air.
After the contract is completed, the contracted pet's injuries will be automatically repaired.
This was the case when contracting Bajie before, and now the contract with Dragon Veined Griffin is no exception.
This would save Zong Shen the process of healing it.
Based on this guy's injuries and blood volume, if you want to heal him, you will have to drink at least one liter of Luna Spring.
It will take anywhere from a few days to more than ten days to recover from the wound.
Those white scale feathers half the size of a human body are not like leeks in the ground, growing one after another.
Zong Shen twisted his neck, his eyes under the battle helmet filled with fighting intent.
He took out the Horn of Lei Luo and began to chant and cast spells.
As a half-baked thunder mage, he currently only masters the two skills of thunder arrow and chain lightning.
But this is enough. Anyway, he is usually the master of close combat.
Thunder magic is just a supplement, including magic talents, which are just for the convenience of activating magic props.
There are many magical items that require magic points to be activated and used.
For example, the token that opened the spatial singularity in the Evans Manor was like this.
Zong Shen fired the first lightning arrow according to the gold mark prompt in the sight range.
The thunder arrow shone with a blue arc and flew into the bushes dozens of meters away.
"Crack!"
"Uh-huh!"
It hit the target accurately and exploded with lightning on a brutal orc holding a stone axe.
At the same time, it also exploded a small piece of the bush that was blocking its figure.
Zong Shen's eyes were bright and locked on the beastman like a hawk.
This is a big guy, with yellow-green skin. Even if it is squatting, its shape is still eye-catching.
Judging from this figure, once it stands up, it will be at least two and a half meters tall.
Its body is very muscular, without any trace of fat, but is covered with many gray scars.
The orcs have large heads and their facial features are like humans, but the canine teeth on their lower jaws are very prominent.
It has round cheeks, upturned nostrils, slightly pointed ears, and a bald head, leaving only a handful of black hair on the top of the head, which is tied into an upturned braid with vine bark.
No one who lives in the mountains and forests is easy to mess with.
The identities of prey and hunter often change.
So these barbarian beastmen cannot do whatever they want when they live here.
They also need to hunt to obtain food in order to reproduce.
The laws in the mountains and forests are primitive and simple, where strength is king and everyone relies on their own abilities.
This barbarian orc was struck by a lightning arrow and couldn't help but cry out in pain.
"Yahoo!!!"
Its exposure was a signal, and a primal roar came from Zong Shen's rear.
After that, all the thirteen golden circle markers around him took action.
They howled like primitive people and rushed towards Zong Shen.
"Boohoo!"
There were also several sharp cracks in the air.
"Pop!"
Several fist-sized rocks flew towards Zong Shen, but were blocked by the Pendragon loyal guard holding a heavy shield.
"Kill them all!"
Zong Shen calmly issued the order.
The ghouls will disappear in three or four minutes, and the Pendragon loyal guards will only exist for eight or nine minutes. We must deal with this group of barbarian orcs now to make the use of this wave of summoning skills worthwhile. .
Zong Shen grabbed the trident that he had punched on the ground, moved his body, and pounced on the nearest barbarian orc.
Since the contract took too long, his [Strength Amplification] and [Power Demon Possession] states have faded.
But there is still no problem in dealing with these barbarian orcs.
He had already investigated just now and found that these barbarian orcs were not very strong.
They are all green elite level monsters.
There are four slingers among them, and the remaining nine are [Barbarian Warriors (green)].
Their strength is roughly the same, and no commander with a higher level has been found!
