From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 66: Trap Triggered, Demon Blood
"make a deal!"

When Sitthichai heard that quenching could be done, he immediately agreed.

At this stage, quenching is still a scarce resource for most people with special abilities.

Sitthichai also needs to improve his combat power as much as possible before the decisive battle.

Being able to harden weapons before the decisive battle was a condition that no one could refuse.

The deal was done, Lu Heng got the skill crystal core [Elemental Arrow·Fire], and then tempered Xitichai's pair of brass knuckles.

[Elemental Arrow·Fire: Use source energy to condense a fire elemental arrow, shoot it with a crossbow, cause weapon damage to the target, and add X points of fire damage. Damage coefficient = 2×mental power. Skill consumption: 10 points of source energy. Skill level: C.]

This skill is equivalent to using 10 points of source energy to create an elemental arrow, which needs to be used with a bow or crossbow weapon.

The damage caused by elemental arrows consists of two parts.

The first part is weapon damage, which is the damage of bows and crossbows.

The second part is 2× mental fire damage.

In addition to the incidental fire damage, elemental arrows also have a hidden feature that can ignore most of the effects of wind resistance and gravity.

This greatly increases the range of elemental arrows, and there is no need to consider wind direction and gravity when shooting, which greatly improves shooting accuracy.

After getting this skill crystal core, Lu Heng took it back and let Su Muyu absorb it.

Su Muyu was a little nervous because she had heard that Lin Zeyu, the unlucky guy, had failed several times in absorbing the skill crystal core.

There is only one [Elemental Arrow·Fire], and if the absorption fails, then we are doomed.

Therefore, she was highly focused when absorbing the crystal core energy.

It wasn't until the skill [Elemental Arrow·Fire] was displayed on the data panel that she felt relieved: "Success! It's good."

She patted her chest, thankful that she had not been infected with bad luck by someone else.

Seeing her nervous look, Lu Heng shook his head and smiled, "You have a good understanding."

Su Muyu was a little curious and asked, "Is there an attribute called comprehension?"

Lu Heng tilted his head to think for a moment, then replied, "The attribute of understanding should exist, but there is no way to prove it, so we can only regard it as a hidden attribute."

in fact.

In the previous life, many people with special abilities discussed the topic of "understanding".

It is generally believed that "insight" exists and is a hidden attribute that cannot be seen or touched, but it actually affects every psychic.

In addition to understanding, there are many other factors that affect energy absorption, such as concentration and energy compatibility, which all have an impact.

After obtaining the elemental arrow skill, Su Muyu tried the effect.

Since she had no bow or crossbow, she simply condensed the elemental arrows in her hands and threw them out like darts.

The fire element arrow nailed into the wall, then turned into a ball of flame, burning a black mark on the wall.

"You need another weapon. Do you want a bow or a crossbow?" Lu Heng wanted to hear her idea.

"Let's use a crossbow. It's more convenient." Su Muyu was also thinking about this issue just now and felt that a crossbow was more convenient to use.

It's quite easy to find a crossbow in Stonehammer Castle.

Lu Heng originally planned to find the Iron-Armed leader and ask for a hand by showing his face.

However, Su Muyu felt that there was no need to look for the tribal leader, so he went to Mia to borrow one.

She and Mia escaped from the dungeon of the demon camp together, and they can be said to be good friends who have been through life and death together.

"No borrowing!"

Mia shook her head and refused the request to borrow the crossbow. Then she suddenly changed the subject and laughed, "My crossbow is for you. Let's go to the shooting range and I'll teach you how to use it."

In fact, Su Muyu had used a crossbow in the main world, but that crossbow had not been assimilated by the basic laws and could not be brought into the abyss world.

After a few simple test shots, Su Muyu mastered the key to using a crossbow to launch elemental arrows.

Lu Heng watched from the side. After she finished the test shooting, he took the crossbow and looked at its properties.

[Mia's Crossbow] [Item Level: C]

[Specifications: 72 cm long, 58 cm wide, weight 2.2 kg]

[Attribute: Attack Power 60]

[Evaluation: A crossbow forged from fine iron, with Mia's name engraved on it.]

When a crossbow attacks, it causes shooting damage, and like firearms, it cannot gain the user's strength bonus.

In terms of attack power alone, the damage of a crossbow is not as high as that of a firearm.

After all, the crossbow is a cold weapon, and without skill bonuses, it is definitely not as powerful as firearms.

However, crossbows also have the advantage that they are relatively quiet when shooting.

And it can be used in conjunction with elemental arrows.

If the damage from elemental arrows is taken into account, its power has exceeded that of a pistol.

Su Muyu's current mental power is 34 points. The damage coefficient of the elemental arrow is 2×mental power, which is 68 points. Combined with the 60 points of damage from the crossbow, the total damage reaches 128 points.

This damage exceeds the 17 damage of the Glock G105 pistol.

The most important point is that the crossbow can be used with elemental arrows as long as there is source energy, so there is no need to worry about bullets.

……

While Su Muyu was practicing crossbow shooting at the shooting range, he suddenly frowned and said, "My trap has been triggered!"

"Go and have a look!"

While Lu Heng was speaking, he had already rushed out and ran towards the backyard of Shichui Castle. Su Muyu and Mia hurriedly followed.

In the flower bed in the backyard of Stonehammer Castle, there grew a very gorgeous carrion-eating flower, so gorgeous that it made people fascinated.

now.

More than a dozen source energies appeared around the flower bed, forming dark thorns, and some blood was spilled on the ground.

Two days ago, after Lu Heng burned the evil god's finger, he poured the ashes into this flower garden.

After the evil god's finger was burned to ashes, all the divine essence had been extracted and it was no longer valuable.

But it is a part of the evil god's body after all. For the evil god's servants, it is a place of faith and conversion.

Therefore, Lu Heng kept a backup plan and asked Su Muyu to place a [Dark Thorn Trap] in the flower garden to prevent anyone from taking the ashes.

The original intention of setting this trap was to prevent the emergence of "traitors" in Stonehammer Castle.

After the operations of intercepting the source sacrifices in the past few days, more than twenty human mutants gathered in Stone Hammer Castle.

With so many people with special abilities, it’s hard to say whether anyone will trigger the “traitor mission”.

Of course, Lu Heng was not sure whether this trap would work, he just wanted to give it a try.

Unexpectedly, the trap was really triggered.

"Did it run away?" Su Muyu walked closer to the trap to check.

The trap was triggered, but the "thing" that stepped on the trap disappeared, leaving some blood on the ground.

[Dark Thorn Trap] does cause damage, dealing 3× mental damage per minute.

The damage is very high. If you are entangled by the dark thorns for one minute, you will be seriously injured if not killed.

Of course, if there is enough force, the trap can be forced open.

"It can break free from the trap. This thing must be of a very high level." Lu Heng made the judgment based on his experience.

Mia walked over, squatted in front of the few drops of blood, dipped a little with her finger, put it to her nose and sniffed it. A look of astonishment suddenly appeared on her face. She said, "This is the blood of the devil. Oh no! A devil has infiltrated Stonehammer Castle. I'm going to inform my father."

As she spoke, she ran towards the meeting room, shouting as she ran: "Level 1 alert, demons have entered Stonehammer Castle!"
