Persona: Devil Summoner
Page 181
This story teaches us that it is very important to keep our appearance in good shape at all times. If Siegfried had obsessive-compulsive disorder and checked his body for dirt before taking a shower, he would not have such a weakness in the end.
This kind of legend also reflects the idea hidden in ancient mythology that "no one is perfect". A similar example is Achilles' heel, which is said to be the place where his mother pinched his heel and soaked him in the Styx, and the result is that the place where her hand pinched became a weak point...
Every time Jiang Tianwei reads this kind of story, he would think, why don’t you just switch places and soak his ankles?
Back to the evil dragon Fafner, as one of the main villains in the Heroes' Tale, it is naturally set to be very powerful in order to highlight the hero's invincibility! That metal body can not only rebound physical attacks and gun sniping, but also resist a variety of elemental magic damage such as lightning strikes.
According to legend, Fafna's only weakness is the heart. Therefore, it always pays close attention to its heart. The reason why it dragged Jiang Tianwei into the sky was to keep a distance and prevent it from having a chance to attack its heart.
But what I didn’t expect was that this guy did the exact opposite!
That is the "Blade of Despair" obtained by defeating the demon Red Knight!
As an unreasonable magic skill, it can penetrate all unreasonable defenses. No matter if you are physically ineffective, physically reflected, or physically absorbed, it will be blasted.
The result was that the evil dragon suffered a great loss because of his own carelessness!
But, it still has a chance.
As a high-level shadow, the evil dragon Fafner naturally has its own set of tactics. It knows its own advantages too well, its indestructible body and its ability to soar into the sky and dominate the sky. Since its proud defense has been penetrated, it will temporarily rely on another ability of its own!
Enduring the severe pain of having its claws cut off, the evil dragon flapped its metal wings slightly, and the giant metal dragon instantly climbed high into the sky! The speed was so fast that people couldn't even keep up with it!
The evil dragon flying in the air, with a head that looked like a human face and a dragon's head, opened its metal fangs, and a blue-green light condensed in its mouth...
No matter who reads it, they will think of an attack method that has been used so much in fantasy novels that it has become common sense - Dragon's Breath!
Dragons are usually considered to be the top creatures in the fantasy world (or at least super advanced creatures), and they are filled with all kinds of unreasonable fantasies. For example, how can such a huge and heavy body fly? Why can it spit out fire when it opens its mouth? Why do they like to collect shiny things? Why do they like to plunder princesses when there is reproductive isolation?
If you ask these questions to a biologist, you will most likely be kicked out by them.
After all, fantasy is fantasy, there is no need to worry about reality. Why do dragons breathe fire? Maybe this is a kind of romance?
Moreover, strictly speaking, the blue-green flame is not of "fire attribute" but of "nuclear heat attribute". Yes, it is the nuclear heat born from the fear engraved in the bones of the Japanese.
That was not [fire], but [heat]. The burst of blue flames was only a manifestation, not the essence. If you try to resist its flames by resisting flames, it will not work.
The fierce blue flames became more intense, as if another sun had appeared in the sky. The breathtaking brilliance immediately broke through the thick clouds around it, turning the gloomy atmosphere into the violence of light. The ancients began to worship the sun very early. In the myths of various countries, whenever there are gods, there must be a sun god.
The time is ripe!
Fafnir exerted force with her slender neck, and with an arc, she threw the fireball in her mouth towards the ground like a baseball!
Judging from the diameter of this fireball, if it falls to the ground, it will probably swallow up the surrounding land!
(Cry, shout, run away! Just like in the mythical age! Tiny insect, accept the breath of the dragon at the top...)
The evil dragon Fafna had only this happy thought in her mind.
However, contrary to its expectations, the tiny humans on the ground did not flee in all directions, but gathered together.
(Did they realize they couldn’t escape, so they wanted to die together? Humans are creatures, after all…)
Boom!
Before the evil dragon could finish thinking, the blue flame of the sun had already fallen! The violence of the heat energy directly covered the entire land with a layer of charred black.
The originally dark mud-like ground was burned by the extremely high heat, and quickly lost its original moisture, turning into loose dust. The surrounding thorns were destroyed, leaving only some thick roots with charred remains, which had lost the ability to survive. The originally dark outer wall of the castle was burned by the flames and now became even darker.
Fortunately, this castle only exists conceptually. It will not be destroyed unless the evil dragon is defeated. Otherwise, it will be destroyed by the evil dragon itself.
The evil dragon slowly descended, ready to carefully search the charred ground for the whereabouts of the tiny human skeletons.
However, the intense blue heat dissipated, vision gradually returned to normal, and only... one person was left on the earth? !
Strictly speaking, it is a "weirdness" that only has human form.
He had an upper body that was no different from a human male, and looked like a handsome and strong man. He had beautiful golden hair and held a short knife in his hand. His lower body was a large stone that had been split open.
Considering that Sun Wukong jumped out from a crack in the stone, he looks like he [grew] out of the crack in the stone!
This half-rock man was standing proudly at the place where he had just been hit by the blue nuclear energy. Among the dark and dry earth around him, only the ground under his feet was not invaded by the nuclear heat flames, just like the exorcism circle drawn by Sun Wukong.
Jiang Tianwei and the other three were naturally in its shadow and were safe and sound!
This handsome demon was Mithras, the legendary sun god revered in the Roman Empire from the 1st to 4th century AD. As the sun god, he naturally had resistance to both fire and nuclear heat. The dragon's breath that fell from the sky seemed to be completely blocked by a wall in front of him, bypassing his body.
Often, people's anger is not caused by the "situation" itself, but by the "attitude" displayed by people in a specific situation. Jiang Tianwei and others were so calm that Fafner, who was flying in the air, was furious! As a famous evil dragon, he actually had his legs cut off, and his proud nuclear flame was actually eaten by the other party without any injury? !
unacceptable!
The evil dragon roared loudly and swooped down from the sky, preparing to use its huge mass to completely defeat these people!
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 379 Reflection! I reflected your reflection!
As an evil dragon, Fafnir is indeed very powerful.
In terms of attributes, as a world-famous evil dragon, it is naturally not weak.
In terms of resistance, the metal-covered dragon body can not only rebound physical attacks such as swords, but also reflect flying props of the mass of bullets. As a fantasy creature that can freely release dragon breath, it can also absorb attacks of fire and nuclear heat attributes, and it also has resistance to electric current. The most important thing is that it has such excellent resistance and no weaknesses! This is the most rare thing!
From the perspective of applicability, the evil dragon Fafna can dominate the sky and the ground. Looking at his iron body, it is probably not impossible for him to go into the water.
Such a perfect dragon naturally has the pride that a dragon should have.
It couldn't accept that the little bug that had just defeated it was actually not shaken at all by the trick it was so proud of.
Therefore, he decided to use all his strength to kill these people!
For monsters of huge size, the simplest and most brutal means of attack is to charge into them.
Use mass and speed to overwhelm your enemies.
The evil dragon Fafner is no exception! The extremely high potential energy brought by the rapid dive from the sky will definitely smash the target to pieces once it hits it!
Moreover, Fafnir was absolutely not worried that the enemy might be able to block her.
Because... the force is mutual.
If someone tries to block his charge, he will inevitably transfer his strength to Fafner. Isn't this what we often call "physical attack"? Don't forget that this steel body will reflect all physical attacks back!
In other words, once someone tries to block Fafner's impact, even if it's the legendary Titan or Hercules, if he tries to block Fafner's power, Fafner will bounce him back and crush him along with the impact! It's just like the legendary "returning the favor"!
This is its trump card that is more powerful than nuclear fire. Once used, it has never failed... Actually, that's not true. The only time it failed was when it was attacked by that damn Siegfried...
The evil dragon Fafner was distracted for a moment, and when it came back to its senses, it suddenly found something wrong!
There is a strange thing rushing towards me at an exaggerated speed!
It was a green, dirty looking thing, a bit like a clay figurine and a bit like a bronze bell. It was obviously thrown over. It was probably used to attack me and hinder my attack, right?
If it were an ordinary dragon, it would probably perform a full-scale aerial spin, bypassing the flying prop while continuing to rush towards the ground - but this is Fafner! How could it give in?
Boom!
The iron body slammed into the bronze body...
Boom! ! !
Because the skull collided directly with the opponent, the heavy and muddy metal collision sound was transmitted directly through the bones to the whole body. Even the evil dragon Fafner was knocked unconscious by this blow! She froze in mid-air at that time!
(How is this possible?! I, I actually lost in the collision!?)
The evil dragon Fafner was extremely shocked!
There is an interesting psychological term called "American-centrism," which states that individuals tend to regard their own views, experiences, and culture as the standard and ignore the differences in other cultures and views.
To put it simply, it means "I am the world."
The evil dragon Fafner was too strong, so strong that it could only contain itself in its field of vision. That was why it lost.
If it could put aside its pride and make good use of its advantages, even if it couldn't defeat Jiang Tianwei, it would at least cause him considerable trouble.
The thing that just hit it is called Arabatto. It is an ancient god that looks like the "Haniwa" unearthed in Japan. It looks like an ancient bronze doll, with no mobility at all, just like a decoration.
But, this thing has a defensive power that is no less than that of the evil dragon Fafner!
It also has physical reflex skills!
So, Jiang Tianwei summoned Overlord Xiang Yu on the spot and threw it towards Fafner!
In fact, Jiang Tianwei could also use the Cyclops, but unfortunately, when he first arrived, he let the Cyclops cover the retreat, but it was killed instantly by the evil dragon Fafner's exaggerated range of nuclear thermal flames.
Moreover, even if it was still alive, it is obvious that it would be easier to throw a living thing than to invest in an immovable decoration.
The result is that two demons with physical reflection skills collided in mid-air! Your impact force was transmitted to me and reflected! I reflected your reflection! I reflected your reflection of my reflection... It was like two bored elementary school students bickering.
The result was that the impact force was bounced back and forth by the two demons' characteristics, and the two demons stopped in mid-air at the same time!
The evil dragon Fafna roared unwillingly, and from its wide-open mouth, blazing flames once again emerged! It was about to spit out a wave of flames at a very close distance...
He was not worried. Humans were too fragile. Even if they joined forces with the devil, they wouldn't be that strong, right? As long as his heart wasn't pierced through, his invincible body would be able to...
When Fafna thought of her heart, her heart suddenly tightened. She looked down and found that a beautiful spear was poking at her heart, which was protected by her strong wrists.
The gun pierced through his hands, shattered the scales on his chest, and literally tore open his heart, hanging on his chest.
It was not until this moment that it noticed that there was a person lying on the back of the bronze clay figure.
Black hair, yellow skin, dazzling golden armor, and... a confident smile that is even brighter than the armor. It is Jiang Tianwei.
At this time, he was riding on the back of the demon Huang Ba Tu, maintaining the action of throwing the spear.
"Roar?!"
Fafna let out an inexplicable roar, and when he noticed it, the large amount of blood gushing out had already begun to eat away at his strong body! The more he exercised, the more he bleeded, and the more he bleeded, the more powerless he was to recover!
Jiang Tianwei's spear teacher is Cu Chulainn. Many people know that Cu Chulainn's weapon is the legendary magic spear [Gaberga], but they don't know that according to "The Story of the Bull Raiders", this thing has several versions such as spears, javelins, short spears, etc.
By the way, it is said that one of the techniques his teacher Scathach excelled in was throwing the spear with her feet.
As the only disciple of Cu Chulainn in the 21st century, Jiang Tianwei was naturally trained by him in spear throwing skills. It was very difficult for Jiang Tianwei to hit the small red dot on the target, but facing the evil dragon that was much larger than himself, aiming at the heart that was larger than half of his body, it was much easier.
The evil dragon, having lost its mental strength, fell from the sky. Jiang Tianwei also used his mobile phone to recover Huang Ba Tu, and followed the evil dragon in a free fall from the sky, also interpreting an alternative "gravity" by the way.
We all know that two iron balls, one light and one heavy, dropped from the Leaning Tower of Pisa landed at the same time. Today, Jiang Tianwei used his own experience to tell everyone that a dragon and a human fell from the sky at different times and also landed at different times. I wonder if there will be textbooks that will record this truth in the future.
Jiang Tianwei was too lazy to do anything to cushion his fall, and just let his body fall freely toward the ground. Just before he landed, he snapped his fingers, and a ball of fire suddenly burst out between his legs!
The flames seemed to have a physical entity and quickly condensed into shape under him. A handsome motorcycle supported his body like a spiritual horse. The flames swirled into wheels and the motorcycle fell to the ground. The flaming wheels perfectly offset the impact of the fall. Jiang Tianwei hardly felt any impact and landed steadily on the ground.
The other person who fell was not so lucky.
The heavy metal body slammed heavily onto the ground. Although the light and heavy iron balls landed at the same speed, their landing power was different.
The wreckage of the evil dragon with such a huge mass fell freely from such a high altitude, generating an exaggerated air wave that was almost explosive. The air was compressed and scattered, and the shock wave blew Jiang Tianwei's hair. Fang Zexia couldn't help but put out her hands to cover her eyes. Bai Zhong Zhidou turned his back, curled up his body, pulled his lapels close, and turned up his collar to reduce the impact of the strong wind.
As if in coordination with this exaggerated fall, the huge castle gate slowly opened without any human push... revealing the gorgeous decoration inside the gate.
It was a scene that formed a perfect contrast with the depressing and terrifying atmosphere outside. It felt like cutting open the smelly and ugly shell of a durian to reveal the delicious white meat inside.
An embroidered red carpet stretched from the door all the way to the end of the field of vision. The pure white walls were embossed with delicate patterns. Landscape paintings decorated with golden frames were hung neatly in the middle of the wall. The ceiling was arched, with several glittering lines outlined by gold-mixed pigments. The princess's face was embossed on each piece of the divided ceiling.
If you look closely, isn't this Togo Ichiraku's face? The only difference is that her beautiful black hair is tied up on top of her head, with a royal-style headdress that looks like a display piece for a pastry chef to show off his skills. It has a contradictory feeling of being gorgeous but cumbersome, sweet but inedible.
On both sides of the corridor, handsome silver knights' armors were neatly arranged. Each armor was extremely luxurious, with inconspicuous dark patterns on the smooth outer wall of the armor, which did not affect the overall beauty. Unlike ordinary decorative armors, the weapons in these armors were different, ranging from long spears and halberds to long swords and scimitars to bows and arrows, just like a fully equipped army.
Just like what Baek Jong Naoto analyzed before, fairy tales are for children, so there are not so many gray areas. Black is black, white is white, and justice and evil are irreconcilable. Maybe the reality is not like this, but it doesn't matter. For children who love fairy tales, this is how the world should be.
Inside and outside the city gate, there are two completely different styles, the extreme harshness and the ultimate luxury coexisting, which really opened Jiang Tianwei's eyes...
Now he has only one curiosity: (Now that I have defeated the dragon and entered the castle, should I meet the princess next?)
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 380: Sleeping Beauty, a beauty is a beauty, but a little weird
Walking in the magnificent castle, Jiang Tianwei felt like he was in a dream. When he was a child, he had imagined that he was a prince from a royal family who had fallen into the hands of ordinary people, and that one day he would be able to return to the huge castle and live a happy life. Unexpectedly, his childhood fantasy would come true in this way ten years later.
Seeing the rows of metal knight armor, Jiang Tianwei was a little worried at first, fearing that this thing would suddenly move and fight him. After all, in the second dimension, it is standard for this kind of inorganic armor to suddenly move. If you put a set of armor and it doesn't move, you are embarrassed to say hello to others!
Jiang Tianwei originally thought that the armor in fairy tales was safer, but then he immediately remembered that there was also a tin man in The Wizard of Oz, so it was not strange that the armor could move!
Fortunately, there was no danger in the castle.
This is easy to understand. Basically, in a fairy tale, when the righteous prince enters the castle, the story has come to an end, and there are rarely any variables.
The castle was a terrifyingly large space with no people or enemies. It seemed very empty. But you wouldn't get lost. The red carpet under your feet served as a signpost. You just had to follow the path and walk inside.
It was a natural and familiar thing, but Jiang Tianwei always felt something was wrong.
Because... why aren't any of my companions here? Based on past experience, no matter which order they entered the palace, they should appear in similar places. Even if the distance between them increased due to the different scales, and no one could be seen for a while, Jiang Tianwei had just caused the evil dragon to fall, and the door was opened wide. Such a loud noise should be enough to attract the attention of his companions.
