Chapter 1045 - 1045 A Small Experiment

1045 A Small Experiment
The village’s laboratory had not been completed yet, so he could not carry out further research. Therefore, he took the opportunity to see the Tier 2 transformation process of the barbarians and the so-called black rhombus-shaped spikes in actual combat.
Ventalita’s expression quickly turned ugly.
The beasts were dying quickly!
Those were not ordinary undead!
The sharp claws of the ghouls had the effect of breaking armor. They could easily cut through the hard skin of the beasts, leaving long and narrow wounds on the bodies of the beasts.
The enemy’s attack was extremely powerful!
What was even more terrifying was that they also had a terrifying self-recovery ability!
He had never seen such strange ghouls!
“Roar!!!”
Ventalita immediately entered the Tier 2 state. A layer of black cuticles emerged from the surface of his skin, and fine black rhombus-shaped spikes extended out from the cuticles.
“It’s here!”
The Tier 2 barbarian with black stratum corneum all over his body was very easy to recognize. At a glance, Ao Cang saw Ventalita, who was charging at the forefront of the battlefield, and shouted, “Mages! Attack!”
More than a dozen mages standing on the sentry tower immediately waved their scepters and cast various weakening spells at Ventalita.
“Ice crystal!”
“Slow!”
“Fear of the unknown!”
“Ignite!”
“Will destruction!”
More than a dozen negative spell techniques were cast on Ventalita.
Eh?
The effect was so good?
Fang Heng, who was watching from the side, was overjoyed when he saw this.
A Tier 2 barbarian was very strong and difficult to deal with, but its resistance to magic was almost zero!
With more than a dozen debuffs on his body, Ventalita’s forward speed suddenly decreased, and his movements became extremely stiff.
Fang Heng found that Ventalita’s threat had been greatly reduced!
Even the Lickers were faster than him!
Fang Heng couldn’t help but look back at Ma Xiaowan, who heaved a sigh of relief.
This teammate is not bad!
However, the mages of the Empire had their limitations.
They were not good at close combat and needed the protection of their teammates on the battlefield.
If he were to bring this group of mages to battle in the wild, they would die if they were not careful and got close to a savage beast.
However, for the defense of a city, the mages were very effective.
At this moment, Fang Heng suddenly felt that the situation in Wei Tao’s Hani City was still optimistic.
Ma Xiaowan didn’t know what Fang Heng was thinking. She was still nervously staring at the bottom of the city wall.
The Empire’s mages were extremely difficult to train, and training more than ten mages consumed a large number of the Tianli Mercenary’s resources every year. If one of them were to die, she would be heartbroken.
“Roar!!!”
Ventalita was under the control of the mages and felt extremely uncomfortable. He roared again and raised his hand at the mages above the tower.
“Chi Chi Chi!!!”
The dense black rhombus-shaped spikes attacked the mages.
At the side, the Empire’s guardian soldiers, who were already prepared, immediately raised their shields that were more than half a meter thick and blocked in front of the mages.
“Thump! Thump Thump!!”
The black rhombus-shaped spikes struck the shield one after another, piercing several centimeters deep into it.
Eh?
What was going on? It didn’t explode?
“Quick, show me your shield!”
Qiu Yaokang, who had just witnessed the Tier 2 barbarian’s transformation, was extremely excited. He had long been interested in the black rhombus-shaped spikes. He quickly called a soldier to bring the shield over for inspection.
The two soldiers carried their heavy alloy shields and returned to the rear.
Fang Heng was also a little curious. He lowered his head to observe and study the black rhombus-shaped spikes on the shield with Qiu Yaokang.
The spikes were black rhomboid, and the front section was extremely sharp. Just from their appearance, they looked like crystals.
Qiu Yaokang looked at the rhombus-shaped spike with a serious expression. He looked at Fang Heng beside him and said, “Try it. Take one down and check it.”
“Yes, move aside, be careful it may explode.”
Fang Heng was worried that the black spike would suddenly explode. He waited until Qiu Yaokang was far away before he reached out his hand and grabbed the handle of the black spike.
The rhombus-shaped spike was bone-piercingly cold in his hand, and its surface was extremely smooth.
Chi!
Fang Heng pulled out the entire black spike with force. There was no explosion.
“Interesting.”
Qiu Yaokang came over and took the black rhombus-shaped crystal from Fang Heng’s hand and observed it carefully. After a while, he seemed to have discovered something and stuck his head out to look down the city wall.
Ventalita was fighting while being surrounded by Lickers.
The rhombus-shaped black crystal will cause continuous explosions after piercing into the Licker’s body, causing secondary damage to the Licker.
To the Lickers, the explosion damage was not scary. The most troublesome thing was that the stun effect of the continuous explosions would cause them to lose their combat ability for a period of time.
“Did you find anything?”
Qiu Yaokang thought for a while and explained in a way that Fang Heng and Mo Jiawei could understand, “According to my judgment, the black rhombus-shaped crystal is no longer under the control of the host after leaving the body, such as the hornet’s sting.”
“Of course, I know that. But why didn’t it explode?” Mo Jiawei asked.
“My guess is that it should be related to blood.”
As Qiu Yaokang spoke, he threw the black rhombus-shaped crystal in his hand somewhere outside the city wall.
“Pa!”
The sharp spike landed on a large pool of blood.
Just half a second after it touched the blood, the spike exploded with a bang. The rhombus-shaped spike exploded into several tiny spike pieces. When the pieces came into contact with the blood, they exploded again to form smaller spikes, which kept circulating into the explosion.
“It seems that I was right,” Qiu Yaokang nodded. “The explosion was caused by some kind of elemental reaction between the crystal and the blood. As for the so-called delayed explosion, it was probably due to insufficient elemental reaction.”
Fang Heng and Mo Jiawei looked at each other, indicating that they understood a little. But it didn’t seem to be of much use.
“Can you think of a way to stop the spikes from exploding?” Fang Heng asked.
As long as the spikes did not continuously explode inside the Licker’s body, the threat of the entire Tier 2 barbarian race would be greatly reduced.
Qiu Yaokang thought for a while and replied, “I can’t answer your question for now. I want to do an experiment.”
“Sure, what experiment?”
Huh?
Ma Xiaowan, Ao Cang, and the others, who were listening to the discussion, couldn’t help but swallow their saliva. They carefully looked at Qiu Yaokang and the others, who were discussing seriously.
How could they still be in the mood to do research at a time like this?
Experiment?
Are you kidding me?
Did he not treat the barbarians as humans anymore?
To be honest, the Empire and the barbarians had been fighting for a long time, but this was the first time they had heard that the explosion of the black spikes was related to blood.
The people of the Empire all had a fixed concept that the explosion of the black rhombus-shaped spikes was controlled by the barbarians.
“It’s very difficult for the spikes on ordinary animals to regrow in a short period of time. However, the barbarians seem to have a very strong weapon regeneration ability. I’m very curious about this ability.”
Qiu Yaokang looked down at Ventalita, who had entered Tier 2 combat state, and his face showed an interested look.
“That’s why I want to try and see how many spikes he can produce from his body.”
