Cannibalizing one's own body? What kind of operation is this? Will these stone men choose to commit suicide after being captured?
The life form of these stone men was beyond the scope of Reggie's understanding. When Dio described it like this, Reggie felt that the rock demon warriors were like some kind of highly intelligent robots.
In any case, Dio's worry is very reasonable. The purpose of this battle is not to annihilate the enemy. If the rock demon warrior cannot be captured alive, all efforts will be meaningless.
Reggie quickly asked Dolanor to open the cave, but it was too late. The situation was the same as Dio described. The stone man disappeared, leaving only a large piece of stone on the ground.
The thickest mountain rock should be the enemy's torso, the round stone like a watermelon should be the enemy's head, and some rectangular rocks should be the enemy's limbs. The rock demon warrior with amazing combat power turned into parts everywhere in the blink of an eye.
It just disappeared. There was no blood, no juice, and no sign of life. Are these rock demons really robots? Are these stones all they have in life?
Impossible, this is absolutely impossible. Even if they are robots, there should be at least some mechanical traces on these stones. Reggie carefully inspected each stone, and there was not even a gear on it.
There seems to be only one explanation. These stone men may be the product of some kind of magic, but this is unreasonable. If the devil can turn stones into warriors, their number should be endless. There are countless stones on the Lost Mountain. If
They can all become warriors, and Dio and his trolls will definitely not survive today.
Dio sighed and said: "There is no other way. I am willing to act as a bait again, but you must think of a way to hunt them."
"Don't worry, let me think about it." Reggie sat silently next to the stone for a long time. He needed to reorganize his thoughts. "Old wizard, are you sure that no living thing can escape from this cave?"
Doranor said: "I can guarantee with my life that no living thing, as small as a bug or as big as a giant elephant in the north, can leave here."
Insects and giant elephants, this old guy is really good at making metaphors, wait a minute, giant elephant...
Reggie saw the Northern Giant Elephant in Hanmaple Fortress, which was a huge Terror Elephant. A kind of freezing demon called Rodbar got into the Terror Elephant's body and controlled the Terror Elephant to come to Han Maple Fortress. He almost missed it.
A deadly magic circle was completed.
This gave Reggie a bold guess, whether there are such special types of rock demons, and they can also parasitize other objects, but this kind of object is not alive, but the pile of stones in front of him.
It parasitizes in the stone and then controls the stone man to fight. Even if the stone man's head is smashed, the rock demon's body is not harmed because his body is not in the head of the stone man at all.
Where is his body? For safety reasons, a thick torso is obviously the first choice.
Perhaps the real rock demons did not escape or commit suicide. They are here, waiting for a chance to escape.
It is not difficult to verify this bold conjecture. Camilla's disciples saw through the eyes that the witch Shasha was also in the army.
"Come on, good girl, see what's in this stone?"
Reggie brought Charsha to the stone. Charsha looked at Reggie in surprise: "What can be in the stone?"
"It's hard to say. There might be a beautiful little doll inside."
"I've looked at it, and there's nothing in it."
"Can you please be more careful?"
"I've been very careful."
"Ima!" Reggie shouted angrily, "Bring Bella over here!"
Seeing Bella's evil eyes, Charsha immediately changed her attitude. She concentrated on staring at the stone for about five minutes. With a scream, Charsha fainted.
Camila and Imma rushed over quickly, and after some emergency treatment, Shasha regained consciousness.
"My God, there is a worm in the stone, such a big worm! It looks so scary!"
"Muhahahaha!" Reggie laughed loudly, "Seal these stones with cement and give them to Swindell. We have captured the living rock demon warrior!"
Shasha confirmed Reggie's guess that there was another life living in the stone. Hurley personally led the soldiers and sent the stone containing the rock demon to Shattered Snow City.
This incident seemed to anger the devil Mandasa, and in the next two days, he launched a crazy counterattack against Reggie.
But Reggie also took adequate precautions. He asked Dio to gather all the mountain monsters in the village. Doranor set up a complete magic circle in the village to prevent the rock monsters from attacking from underground. The evil spirits also
They tried to attack the village from the ground, but both the rock demon and the snow demon were defeated time and time again by artillery and incendiary bombs.
This gave Dio a new understanding of Reggie's weapons: "You do have the capital to conquer the continent. If we can really have a decisive battle, I firmly believe that we can defeat the Demon King Mandassa."
"The decisive battle is coming soon," Reggie was very confident about this. "I believe that my magician can find the weakness of the rock demons and kill them all in one fell swoop."
"I really envy you. You have a Bachelor of Magic and a Grand Bachelor. I wonder which one of them do you trust more?"
"This question," Reggie stuck out his tongue and laughed dryly, "how can I answer this..."
Batchelor has changed. It can be seen that he is carrying the orders of the Hades Wizard on this trip. He is helping the Hades Wizard to win over Dio, but he keeps these things in his heart and does not even discuss it with Reggie.
One sentence.
Reggie didn't want to inquire about the Hades Wizard, he didn't want to embarrass the poor old man, but he wanted to know more about Dio's life experience, but Batchelor let him down again.
"I'm sorry, sir, I don't know much about Dio. Sir Tonandita just wants to join forces with Dioturitu to deal with the evil. As for what happened to them before, I know nothing about it."
Reggie remained silent, and Batchelor knew very well that such an answer would not satisfy Reggie.
"My lord, I have absolutely not deceived you. Although I am no longer with you, my loyalty to you has never changed." At this point, Bachelo burst into tears. "At least that's what I think. My
My lord, I am absolutely loyal to you. You always rank in front of Lord Tonandita in my heart. I firmly believe this..."
Poor Batchelor, the irreconcilable conflicts are driving him crazy, and even he himself is doubting his loyalty to Reggie.
"Don't cry, it doesn't matter," Reggie wiped away his tears, "Don't think about those boring things, you will always be my great bachelor."
Batchelor has reached this age, and Reggie doesn't want to be harsh on him anymore. He doesn't need to be loyal to anyone anymore, he only needs to be loyal to his heart.
Batchelor didn't know much about the rock demon, and he didn't think of a way to lure the rock demon out.
At least in this matter, Reggie was convinced that he was not lying. He asked the soldiers to send Batchelor back to Shattering Snow City and let him live a quiet life in his manor for a few days.
Just as the Grand Maester left, the Magister went up the mountain.
Swindell came to Reggie with a set of equipment, and he would demonstrate his research results live.
"First of all, please take a look at the appearance of the Rock Demon Warrior."
Swindell took out a glass bottle, and Reggie only glanced at the bottle, a look that would make him regret it for the rest of his life.
The bottle contained the ugliest creature in the world, a fat worm that was three fingers thick and more than a foot long, crawling and squirming in the bottle.
"This is the smallest one. The others are bigger than it. There are also two patterned ones. Sir, do you want..."
"Take it away!" Reggie shouted, which made Swindell tremble. He was about to put the bottle away, but Dio took it away again.
"It's amazing," Dio sighed, "such a strong rock demon warrior turned out to be an ugly insect. Our ancestors were deceived by this insect for thousands of years."
"Your ancestors have been fighting evil spirits for thousands of years?" It seems that the mountain monsters still have a lot of unknown history.
Dio didn't want to say more, and Reggie didn't ask any more questions. He was more concerned about how this insect could control the huge stone man.
"It's this kind of thing," Swindell took out a plant root. "I found a lot of these roots in the body of the worm. These roots turned into another substance in the body of the worm. I remember you
Call this substance plant fiber."
"Manska," Dio looked at the root in surprise, "This is Manska's root."
