Chapter 247 Sacrifice to the explosion of dragon flames!
Wow~
Suddenly, with General Skeleton as an example, all the skeletons knelt down on one knee in front of Chu Xin.
They inserted the blade into the ground with their left hand, clenched their fists with their right hands and hammered their chests, lowered their heads but had firm eyes, and said everything silently.
Before Chu Xin could speak, the general said firmly, "Your Excellency Smaug, from now on, we will follow you and spend our lives to defeat Mordor!"
On the grass stained red by blood, the densely packed skeletons were neatly arranged. Some of them had no arms, some had holes in their heads, and some had broken limbs in their hands that had not yet been installed. But at this moment, everyone stopped.
They took action and prayed to Chu Xin with the most sincere and sincere attitude, hoping that he could become their new leader and lead them to fulfill their long-cherished wish and achieve liberation.
Chu Xin looked at this skeleton army with strong equipment and strong will, and said solemnly, "The road with me will be difficult and dangerous. Are you ready to abandon life and death?"
"We are all dead people. No matter how we live, so will we die. In this extra life gifted by God, we can fight together with you. It is a dream!" General Skeleton said with emotion.
Seeing how determined they were, Chu Xin nodded happily, noting that the friendly relationship he had enjoyed over the past few days was not in vain.
"Then I will comply with your request and join my command."
As soon as he finished speaking, a small card appeared in his mind. It was the [Skeleton Legion]. It automatically slipped into the [Smaug] card in the card pack and was placed side by side with the [Spirit of the Wild].
Obviously, General Skeleton and the others have become Chu Xin’s skeleton servants!
Buzz~
Suddenly, General Skeleton and others felt that Chu Xin looked more amiable and approachable, as if he was the most trustworthy person in the world, and there was some kind of vague bond between them.
"It's dawn," General Skeleton looked at the east and said with emotion, "King, I have forgotten my previous name, please give me a new life."
Chu Xin thought for two seconds and said, "Let's call it Helios, which means the sun."
The skeleton general felt as if he had found a treasure, and murmured to himself in surprise, "Helios~ King hopes that I will be as hot and brave as the sun, full of high fighting spirit at the beginning of every day, and shine and warm everyone around me.
Alone!"
Seeing his excited expression, Chu Xin coughed strategically, "This is my expectation for you, don't live up to it."
In fact, he simply chose it casually after seeing the rising sun, and was too lazy to use his brain to think of troublesome Western names.
I originally planned to use the name Apollo, but I always felt that it was a bit ridiculous. The image of the Golden Saint always appeared in my mind, so I used the name of the real sun god in Greek mythology.
As for what General Skeleton said, it was all his unilateral overthinking, and Chu Xin didn't think that much at all.
But no matter what, people always have to be positive in order to go on tenaciously.
Huhu~
The morning breeze blew slowly, dispersing the pervasive smell of blood bit by bit.
At this time, the card text appeared in my mind:
"Start a fierce aerial battle with the Ringwraiths, face the enemy's many dark magics without fear, and rely on his experience and huge body to form a crushing battle;
With his strong strength and charisma, he made the Skeleton Legion completely surrender, and successfully recruited a general under his command and adopted him as a card;
Proficiency 5%, reaching 50%;
Earn rewards:
[Black Flame Tail Blade] (Tail-attached black magic, which can attach soul-burning black flames to the tail blade, which has significant lethality against undead and other special creatures, and can last up to 15 minutes at a time)."
"Isn't this the black flame used by the Witch King and others," Chu Xin said to himself in surprise, "Doesn't it mean there is a chance to completely eliminate the ring spirits?"
Thinking of this, Chu Xin couldn't help but look forward to the next wonderful encounter with the nine ring spirits.
"The performance of the Ringwraiths is stronger than in the movie, and their tacit cooperation is unexpected. It seems that I have underestimated Middle-earth a little."
So, Chu Xin decisively opened the gashapon machine.
Number of times -1
Current number of gashapons: 2
Guaranteed cumulative number of times: 3
Kaka~
A gashapon rolls out.
It will automatically unscrew and reveal a [Skill Enhancement Card].
This is an old acquaintance. I have twisted it out more than once in the past. Because of its practicality, it is deeply loved by Chu Xin.
He opened the record details of the [Smaug] card and carefully browsed the existing abilities.
After careful selection, [Skeleton Dragon Flame], [Bone Arrow Burst], [Skeleton Slash], and [Black Flame Tail Blade] stood out.
As for [unlimited gold coins], it’s not necessary. Why do you need so much money?
Then, Chu Xin began to recall the whole story of last night's fierce battle, and analyzed the effectiveness, pros and cons of these skills in actual combat.
In the end, he decided to strengthen [Skeleton Dragon's Flame], an important and commonly used ultimate move.
The battle with the Ringwraith made him realize that the temperature, explosive power, range and scope of the skeleton fire were far from satisfactory.
The skeleton fire is equivalent to the dragon fire that Smaug had during his lifetime. In other words, the strength of the dragon fire itself is not particularly high, and there is a lot of room for improvement.
It is indeed more than enough to deal with most ordinary creatures in Middle-earth. Whether they are humans, dwarves or orcs, they can directly burn a large area. The meat grinding battlefield instantly turns into an open-air crematorium, and they are all cremated.
But in the face of extraordinary beings such as the Ringwraiths, as well as Maia who came to the world like Gandalf, and even the Balrog that Maia degenerated into, if you want to burn them to death directly, it would be somewhat difficult and basically impossible.
For example, the Balrog will most likely open its mouth and swallow the skeleton flame into its belly, and the temperature of the demon flame is also higher than the normal dragon flame.
Buzz~
The enhanced card turns into a stream of light and is injected into the [Smaug] card.
"[Skeleton Dragon Flame] evolves into [Sacrificial Explosive Dragon Flame] (In addition to the normal burning effect, this flame also comes with the biggest feature of 'explosion', and the flame elements will detonate each other, forming a sacrificial explosion effect, destroying
The power far exceeds simple combustion; the flame temperature is higher than that of bone flame, reaching 2000c)."
Seeing the strengthening results, Chu Xin was very satisfied.
Although combined with his physical size, combat awareness, and comprehensive combat power, it is difficult for him to find an opponent in China, he is not invincible. We need to pay attention to enemies with special abilities and must not underestimate them, so as not to capsize in the gutter and lose Jingzhou.
.
And now that he has obtained [Black Flame Tail Blade] and [Sacrificial Explosive Dragon Flame], his strength has taken a big step forward.
Huh~huh~
By the time Chu Xin recovered his mind, the sun had already risen in the east, and the bright light illuminated the Mudian Lake, which was extremely bright and beautiful.
The frightened birds and animals that fled gradually returned to the mountain forest, and their vibrant cries echoed through the mountains and fields, as if the fight last night was just a dream.
Along with the warm sunshine came Gandalf.
Da~da~
The tall old wizard wielded his wand and walked out of the forest with a smile on his face. Under the iron-blooded and murderous gaze of the skeleton army, he walked unhurriedly to the towering city wall of the royal capital and looked up at the palace.
Chu Xin on the top of the mountain.
He lowered his head slightly and said loudly, neither humble nor arrogant, "Dear Lord Smaug, I am..."
"I know who you are, Gandalf the Grey, an immortal wizard who roams the countries of Middle-earth." Chu Xin didn't try to be smart enough to reveal Gandalf's true identity. After all, he didn't have to pretend to be cool all the time.
Gandalf was very naturally surprised and said, "It turns out that my reputation has spread far and wide, even Your Excellency has heard about it."
Chu Xin was not going to beat around the bush with this old fox and asked directly, "Are you looking for me for the Supreme Lord of the Rings?"
"It's really the Lord of the Rings," Gandalf's expression suddenly became serious, he suppressed his polite smile, and said very seriously, "Yes, when I heard that the Shire was attacked by a skeleton dragon, I thought everything was over, but
When I actually entered the Shire, I discovered that the biggest damage you caused was that most of the floor tiles in the square were damaged. According to Frodo, that silly boy, you took the Ring away very politely and had a pleasant conversation with him.
.”
"My goal is just the ring, not to kill a group of hobbits who have no fighting ability." Chu Xin told the truth.
In other words, when it comes to killing, he has become picky about what he eats and is no longer as picky as before. Instead, he should pursue "quality" and "quantity".
It's like watching a movie. At first, as long as it's just one movie, you'll enjoy watching it. But as the number of movies you watch increases, you start to care about all aspects of the actors, acting skills, basic configuration, fighting experience, etc. It's no longer like at first.
In this way, all comers are welcome, and later, the too streamlined content becomes boring, and the single scene becomes visually fatigued, so they begin to pursue more exciting plots and styles...
"Well, to you, the Hobbits do have no fighting ability, and it doesn't offend them." Gandalf seemed to be tired from walking and sat down against the city wall. "I heard that you broke up with Sauron? I'm not.
The rumors I heard were told to me by Aragorn through Fetion."
"Don't you know everything?" Chu Xin asked back, "Besides, you didn't see everything that happened last night with your own eyes. It's hard for you to stay up all night."
Gandalf was stunned, "You actually found me? I thought I hid it well."
"No, I guessed it." Chu Xin answered honestly and seriously.
"Uh, okay," Gandalf choked and tugged on his beard unhappily. He was deceived by a dragon in just a few words. "I have to confirm it with the person involved in such a major matter that concerns the world~ Aragorn is writing
It says that you are completely different from the former evil dragon Smaug, and he thinks highly of you, but that guy rarely praises others."
Chu Xin stuck out his head and looked down at him, and said in a deep voice, "What about your judgment? If you show up rashly, are you not afraid of dying under my skeleton flames?"
Gandalf's hand holding the wand tightly shows that he remains vigilant after all, and will take action resolutely at the slightest sign of trouble. "Some things are far more important than death. If I don't do it, no one will do it. This is exactly what I exist for."
What’s more, I’m not a frail old man.”
Boom~
Chu Xin flapped his wings fiercely and stood up from the top of the mountain, "Okay, this is the end of the nonsense exchange. Gandalf, tell me your inner thoughts."
Gandalf also straightened his spine proudly and looked at Chu Xin intently, "I don't worry about the Supreme Lord of the Rings being kept by others. It is a most evil thing that even I can't resist. You may be taken advantage of at any time.
The risk of being bewitched and then controlled by Sauron's mind is too great, I have to intervene, please understand."
Chu Xin chuckled and said, "You think I have signs of being bewitched?"
Gandalf looked at it doubtfully. He watched the whole battle last night. He was not surprised by the defeat of the nine ring spirits. He was also amazed that Chu Xin won easily, but this did not mean that Chu Xin had the ability to resist the erosion of the Supreme Lord of the Rings.
Because they are completely two different things.
"You don't wear the Lord of the Rings on your body at all times, so naturally it won't affect you... huh?!"
Gandalf's words stopped abruptly, and he stared at Chu Xin who suddenly opened his mouth wide-eyed, speechless for a moment.
He has never seen anything so outrageous in his life~
I saw a golden light shining in the gap between the molars behind Chu Xin's mandible.
The Supreme Lord of the Rings, which made the world flock to it and Sauron thought about it day and night, was stuck between his teeth like a rotten vegetable leaf, and it seemed that it would break if he was not careful.
But after the shock, Gandalf felt extremely shocked.
That is the Supreme Lord of the Rings that even Maiya is afraid of and rejects!
The fact that Chu Xin was hanging on his lips was the biggest personal insult to Sauron. If I knew about this, my big eyes would explode with anger~
"As you can see, I am immune to the magic of the Lord of the Rings. It is safest for me to keep it. Should I continue to let poor Frodo carry it? How long can he resist? Can you protect him all the time? Even if it is necessary
Throw it into the Doomsday volcano and destroy it, and I, who can fly, will have an advantage." Chu Xin expressed his attitude and listed various facts in response.
"This..." Gandalf was suddenly speechless, and all the speeches he had prepared along the way were in vain.
Because everything Chu Xin said was reasonable and difficult to refute.
He knew very well that no matter how strong Frodo's magic resistance was, with the recovery of Sauron's power, the energy released by the Supreme Ring would become more terrifying, and sooner or later Frodo would be corrupted in his mind and become a madman.
Gandalf couldn't bear it, but there was nothing he could do. There were only a few people in the world who could resist the Ring for a long time.
But now that Chu Xin, a skeletal dragon with powerful combat power and full magic resistance, appears, does it mean that the situation will change?
"The darkness is resurrecting. You have no choice, but how you choose has nothing to do with me." Chu Xin warned unceremoniously.
"Huh~" Gandalf took a deep puff of his pipe, a little irritably, and sat back on the city wall glumly.
He glanced at Chu Xin, who looked like a precious jade in the sun, and cursed secretly in his heart: Wasn't this dragon stupid, arrogant, and greedy before? Why is it now like a human spirit? Forget it, it has broken up with Sauron.
Well, there is nothing else to be surprised about.
"We can cooperate." Gandalf organized his thoughts and said simply.
"What good do I get?" Chu Xin said more simply.
Gandalf opened his mouth and muttered secretly, "It's easy to change a country but hard to change one's nature."
"Now you and Sauron are enemies rather than friends. After suffering a big loss last night, he will definitely launch a more violent attack on you. By cooperating with us and forming an alliance, we can fight against the dark forces of Mordor together. During this period
, the Supreme Lord of the Rings will be kept by you for the time being. In addition, you will gain my friendship, and I am on good terms with all the tribes in Middle-earth. Maybe one day you will ask for something from me." Gandalf replied.
"I do believe this. You, Gandalf, are the number one socialite in Middle-earth after all," Chu Xin said. "You want to draw me into your gang, but these are not enough."
Seeing Gandalf in trouble, Chu Xin said again, "It's okay to cooperate, but it's not necessary to form an alliance. It's okay to make friends. If you use it with all your heart, be careful of backlash." (End of Chapter)
