Chapter 3344 The Trial Of The Fool (One Hundred and Forty Seven)
Chapter 3344 The Trial of the Great Fool (One Hundred and Forty Seven)
It took about five minutes after the king left before Elaine crawled out from under the bed shivering and looked at Eddie who was lying on the ground coughing lightly: "You, are you okay?"
"Ugh..." Eddie got up. His face was very ugly, probably due to lack of oxygen. He fell weakly into Elaine's arms, relying on the support of the white bear boy to barely prevent himself from falling to the ground.
"Uncle, is uncle a bad person? Why did he treat you like that?" the white bear boy asked in a low voice. He didn't understand much about the adults, and he didn't understand it, but the king treated Eddie so roughly just now and almost killed the lion.
A young man strangles, no matter how you look at him, he looks like a bad person.
"This world is not just good people and bad people." The lion boy showed a sad expression: "And... maybe I am the bad guy. I am a bad boy."
"You, you are not bad." Elaine comforted: "You didn't do anything wrong."
Eddie then began to cry softly.
Elaine also noticed that Eddie's lower body was already wet. Eddie's throat was choked like that just now. It was suffocation and a near-death experience. Incontinence is a normal thing.
"Do you want to take a bath?" The white bear boy asked in a low voice: "I'm hiding under the bed and I'm dirty, so I want to take a bath. But, can we go to the palace's bathhouse together?"
"No. There is a well behind the house. You can get water from there to wash your body." The lion man whispered: "I can just wash it myself... take a bath with His Highness the Prince..."
"Stupid, stupid." Elaine didn't say much, hugged Eddie and walked out of the house.
At night, the well water drawn from the well was chilly to the bone. Fortunately, it was already summer and the weather was relatively muggy. The coolness of the well water offset the heat. Elaine took off her clothes and poured the well water on herself, which was very painful.
The dust on my body was quickly washed away.
(It’s so dirty under Eddie’s bed...)
The lion boy resisted taking a bath at first, but Elaine ignored it and poured a bucket of well water on the child's head. The water poured on his body and quickly washed away the powder that dyed his hair.
Gone. With the help of the moonlight and the faint light from inside the house, Elaine could see the blood-red hair on Eddie's body.
"Don't look." The lion boy turned away, perhaps out of shame: "This cursed blood-red hair... will only stain the eyes of His Highness the Prince."
"This is very, very beautiful." The white bear boy said, reaching out and touching Edmund's head.
Under the moonlight, the red hair glowed a crystal clear ruby color under the reflection of water vapor, but Elaine just commented truthfully.
"I don't, I don't know why uncle hates this color. But it's beautiful." He said, "You don't, there's no need to get dirty and cover up this color because of other people's comments, right?"
Eddie didn't reply, he just sat on the marble floor by the well, crying softly. Elaine didn't continue to say anything, wordlessly washing the dirt on Eddie's body with the well water in the bucket.
More blood red is revealed, which is the original color of the child.
(color……)
Elaine opened her eyes and came to her senses.
Queeg's cat face appeared in front of the white-haired human boy, a little blurry. Elaine found that his head was resting on the leopard's furry thighs. The leopard's fur pricked his neck, making him itchy.
Was everything just a dream?
Those memories that had been forgotten a long time ago were thought to be insignificant, but when they reappeared they were particularly sad.
"Ah, big brother woke up?" Bailey said happily: "How are your eyes? Can you see clearly?"
"I...how long have I slept?" The white-haired boy tried to get up. He felt extremely weak.
What was the aftermath of that memory? Elaine tried to recall it, but she couldn't remember it. Where did that "little gray" Eddie go in the end? But now that the Kingdom of Thoris has been destroyed, Eddie may also...
…
"It won't take long, a few minutes." Bailey's voice brought Elaine back to reality: "Uncle Edmund is helping brother Daniel, and they have basically fought off the group of steam crabs."
"Really..." Elaine got up and looked into the distance. What he saw were a few sparse steam crabs. Daniel and Edmund used freezing spells and weapons to deal with the crabs, freezing them one by one into popsicles.
.The situation is basically under control.
Basically under control... what the hell!
"Oops, oops." The white-haired boy said in shock. The situation was under control, which also meant that the leader of the steam crab was about to appear: "Quickly, let the cavalry rise a little higher and get farther away from the ground!"
"Understood." Queeg obeyed. The two iron cavalry rose about two yards and hovered in the air.
"Is big brother going to fight again?" Bailey asked.
"Light, they can't win alone." The white-haired human boy picked up the weapon and jumped down, landing on the ground.
Staggering. My body has never been weaker.
My eyes are dim and my vision has not completely recovered.
Even so, we still have to fight against that invincible thing.
Otherwise you will lose more.
Rumble, rumble, rumble——
What he was worried about finally came. As the battle situation changed, the big boss on the fifth underground floor of Atlantis finally lost his composure and was about to show up.
The giant steam crab king emerged directly from the cracked underground. The huge thing like a rock mountain was wrapped with countless air corals and was emitting high heat.
The air coral "grows" out of the ground, which means that the body of the Steam Crab King is actually connected to the ground through the air coral. The heat from the ground is filled into the monster's body anytime and anywhere, keeping it high forever. Half-assed
The freezing attack has no effect on it. At best, it can only cover the surface of its body with a thin layer of frost that lasts for a few seconds!
Edmund, who transformed into a stalker, fired several ice arrows in an attempt to cause some scratches on the giant scorpion's armor. However, the ice arrows were of no use at all. The sharp ice arrows were killed before they landed on the crab shell.
Most of it melted, losing its mass and sharpness, and finally turned into a smooth piece of ice that hit the crab shell, then turned into a puddle of water, and then turned into mist and evaporated away.
"Is this their boss... He's very powerful." Daniel approached Elaine: "How are your eyes?"
"It's okay," the white-haired boy replied. In fact, his eyes were not that good. Everything he saw was blurry, and he could only roughly see the outline of the Steam Crab King. But he instantly used photons to
The thin filaments create a "photon radar" and grasp the surrounding scenery.
In order to prevent his eyes from being further injured, he simply tore off a piece from the holy cloth and tied it before his eyes. He felt more at ease while fighting with his eyes blindfolded.
The giant crab also smashed down its left pincer at this time. Its long and sharp left pincer was no longer considered a slash. Because the pincer itself was huge, it was more like a ten-yard-long giant sword.
Chopping can easily break the ground.
The three people on the battlefield barely managed to avoid the blow by moving around.
"Aren't your eyes okay at all?" Then Daniel complained: "You just stopped the deterioration of the injury and came back to fight? Do you want to destroy your eyes?"
"No, don't worry about me." Elaine said: "First, win first!"
The Silver Knight boy stopped complaining and focused on dealing with the Steam Crab King in front of him.
Other steam crabs are still harassing everyone, and the number has increased again. Now the three people are facing the steam crab king, twelve small steam crabs, and three large steam crabs. Edmund found that all his ice spells were against them.
The Steam Crab King had no effect, so he turned to check and balance the small Steam Crab. Daniel was responsible for struggling with the large Steam Crab, leaving Elaine to face the King Crab directly.
Elaine felt that his legs were even more uncontrollable. With no other option, he could only use telekinesis to float his body in the air, but he did not dare to float too high because his "photon radar" could not detect it.
There are air corals in the environment. If he flies too high, he will accidentally hit that kind of thing and get burned.
But he knew every move of the Steam Crab King. At least thirty photon thin lines fell on the Steam Crab King, and each line would feed back the big monster's actions to Elaine, so
He could almost predict every attack move of that monster. The huge right pincer was sweeping towards him. Elaine had known it for a long time, so he evaded the blow by flipping in the air. The huge left pincer came like a shield attack.
, Elaine also knew it, so he retreated sharply, just out of the attack range.
The Crab King's ordinary physical attacks are almost ineffective against Elaine, so its mouth is brewing, preparing to spit out a hurricane of scorching steam. If a monster of the size of the Crab King spits steam on this battlefield, it will affect more than just
Elaine alone might even cook Edmund and Daniel who were present, and might even hit the cavalry not far away, injuring Bailey and Quigg.
Therefore, no matter what, you cannot let this monster spit out steam. You should stop it before it makes a move!
Ha - Elaine could clearly hear the monster's inhalation, and he also grasped the precise timing of the Steam Crab King's steam.
Phew - The Steam Crab King was just about to burst out of the steam storm, when the Luna Steel sword pierced its mouth like a nail, and at the same time, the large shield made of the Mercy Sword Mistedin also slapped the Crab King on the face.
, blocked its mouth.
What will be the consequences if the steam that is supposed to be ejected rapidly is suddenly interrupted or even blocked?
The answer is, of course, "implosion."
Elaine could hear a turbid explosion sound, setting off inside the monster's body. The explosion was probably very violent, but the Steam Crab King's armor was really thick, so the explosion generated in its body could hardly be transmitted outside.
Where is the sword that pierced into the body of the Steam Crab King?
It's okay. The photon filaments are still connected, and Elaine can still control it. The top priority at this time is to retrieve the Luna Steel sword, so the white-haired boy uses telekinesis to control the sword and let it rotate at high speed.
It is not a horizontal rotation, turning it into a cutter wheel. It is a longitudinal rotation, turning it into a drill bit, a sharp drill bit that can penetrate everything.
Snap!! The big sword stabbed out from the back of the Steam Crab King, drilling a big hole in its back. A large amount of steam also gushes out of the big hole at the same time, like a spring of steam.
This blow should be enough to destroy the Steam Crab King's ability to spit steam. Even if it wants to spit steam again, its body will leak like crazy after being penetrated, and it will be unable to breathe normally.
This blow at least abolished its ability to spray steam. But the giant crab lifted the air coral wrapped around its right pincer, used the air coral as a weapon, and swept towards Elaine!
Elaine couldn't see the air coral, but he could feel the scorching heat. It was very difficult to avoid invisible things, and the situation was quite bad!
——Since you can't dodge it, use brute force to push it away.
Elaine used pure telekinesis to stir up a violent upward airflow, blowing away the air coral that was supposed to be swept down towards him!
It is too dangerous to continue to let the monster wield the two claws wrapped around the air coral. Now we must find a way to destroy its crab claws.
With such thoughts, Elaine turned the Luna Steel sword and the Luna Steel Scimitar into blade wheels and struck the joints of the giant crab's right pincer from both sides. He knew every move of the monster and even its body structure.
Nature also knows how to make it disintegrate!
Keng! Both swords were embedded in the giant crab's right pincer joint, and part of the blade even got stuck in the thick armor!
Elaine shouted with all her strength: "Attack, attack the joints, fast!!"
Edmund dodged the attacks of the steam crabs, immediately gathered a large amount of magic power, and launched a heavy ice arrow...or in other words, a thick ice ball. The ice ball was aimed at the position of the Luna Steel sword!
Upon seeing this, Daniel teleported to the other side of the giant crab's claws. As he waved his hand, the Void Scimitar struck out, aiming at the position of the Luna Steel Scimitar!
Like tightening a fishing line, Elaine squeezed the sword and scimitar harder from both sides and embedded them deeper into the giant crab's armor!
The three attacks landed on Cancer's right pincer joint at the same time, pressing hard!
The left pincer of the Steam Crab King is broken!
A large amount of hot steam spurted out from the broken crab claws!
