Chapter 26: Book of Formations
Rune's extraordinary system is a combination of physical skills and alchemy.
Weapons, firearms, ammunition, props, and close combat are his strengths.
And the guys in the magic system are good at various spells and formations.
Especially the formation, which can be drawn in advance, can play a great role.
Just like in Yatou Village, the snake whistle affects the mind and the formation that can blind the vision, forcing Rune to be a little embarrassed.
But it was precisely because of the lessons learned last time that Rune had already realized it.
Alchemy-based extraordinary people should pay more attention to pre-war preparations.
Collect information about the enemy, prepare corresponding restraining equipment, and then kill with one blow!
At the very least, you have to prepare a perfect response strategy.
And this time, when dealing with the guys from the Hydra Church, the primary strategy is to use grenades to clear the way and wash the ground with artillery fire!
Destroy the opponent's defense measures, and then manually clean up the mess.
Rune himself prepared a thousand large lead bullets and two hundred armor-piercing bullets.
Not to mention that before the team set off, they also received five boxes of grenades and a powerful alchemical shell "Storm Hammer Type I" from the military supply department.
With the blessing of weapons, experienced soldiers will also be very powerful.
"Throw!"
In the dark secret passage, the grenade exploded after a short delay.
The power is enough to clear some traps and ambushes, but it will not cause the secret passage to collapse.
After two rounds of throwing, Rune led the team in with a lighting stick.
As soon as they got to the bottom of the secret passage, they found the bodies of two Hydra Church believers.
Once again proved the value of grenades to open the way!
The secret passage is not long, and you can reach the bottom in just two steps.
At this time, a huge stone door appeared in front of them, and even three or four people could not push it open.
Rune just waved his hand and was about to have someone blow up the stone door, but was immediately blocked by Sergeant Hill.
"Lieutenant Rune, this door cannot be blown up."
"Why?" Rune looked at the stone door again and did not find anything strange.
"Come and see." Hill stepped forward and put the lighting stick close to the stone door, so that he could see some faint patterns on it. "There is a formation engraved on this door. It is the 'Formation 33' protection formation in the "Book of Formations". Its main function is to absorb external energy and rebound."
"The Book of Formations? You know this?" Rune heard this for the first time.
Hill said: "It's normal that you don't know. In the sequence of inherited magic transcendents, the three books "The Book of Formations", "The Book of Spells" and "The Book of Potions" must be practiced. Although they are not particularly powerful and profound, they are also the corresponding foundation."
"I see." Rune thought for a while, "Since you said so, you should have the Book of Formations, right?"
"Yes, I do." Hill looked embarrassed.
"Show me, and I won't bother you about what happened last time."
The last time Rune hadn't returned to Beloberg, the military already knew everything that happened in Yatou Village.
This means that Hill was a nail planted by the military next to him.
It was not a big deal to have someone supervise him when he went out, but Hill didn't say it clearly, so he was regarded as a hidden chess move.
This is a bit unfair.
"Okay." Hill gritted his teeth and agreed.
"Since you understand, how should this door be opened?" Rune looked at the stone door again.
Is it possible that today will stop here?
"There are only two ways to open this kind of stone door." Hill said, "either break it by force, but the energy injected must be greater than the tolerance range of the formation. Judging from the strength of the formation on the stone door, it requires a full-strength attack from a supernatural person above Sequence 7; the second way is to find the password."
As he said, he pointed to a corner, and Rune found that there was a turntable here, which looked like an old-fashioned telephone.
Rune raised his eyebrows immediately.
Password lock?
In the dark underground space.
A huge nine-headed stone statue is located in the middle, and the hideous and terrifying snake head is lifelike, which makes people shudder.
Under the stone statue, a little girl with a delicate face is sleeping with her eyes closed.
"Great Nine-headed God, please accept our sacrifice!"
In front of him, an ugly man waved the staff in his hand.
Suddenly, the little girl's face showed a painful look, and a faint green light continued to flow out of her body and then injected into the statue.
The light was injected, and the statue was activated.
The huge alchemy array located underground also flashed a dim light.
Above the statue, it seemed that the breath of the real gods was constantly descending.
All around, many believers knelt on the ground, crawling and kowtowing.
A few people raised their heads, their eyes solemn, and looked at this sacred moment.
"Lord Possum, something happened."
An extremely slight voice sounded beside him, causing dissatisfaction among the white-robed people.
We are now in the preparation stage for the Hydra God to bestow a miracle, and watching it for even a second less would be a huge loss.
But the voice sounded again, "There was a big commotion on the ground just now, and Viper and Master Owl have lost contact."
Hearing this, the Possum hesitated for a moment before reluctantly leaving here.
"What's the situation now?" The Possum asked after leaving the underground space and returning to the secret passage.
"I don't know the details. All of us outside are dead. It is speculated that Beloberg's navy launched an attack here."
"Go to the core of the formation and take a look." The Possum walked quickly.
Master Maldo's ceremony has begun, and he is in the weakest state at the moment.
If an enemy breaks in at this time, then things will be very bad.
The core of the formation is the hub of the entire underground formation built by Maldo, which can monitor the underground formation and control part of the formation.
The Possum pressed his forehead against the light ball in the air, and suddenly he had a full view of the entire underground situation.
"So fast!"
When he saw Rune and others were already in front of the stone gate, his heart trembled.
According to the time when Viper and Owl lost contact, it can be inferred that this group of people reached this place in just one hour.
The ground stalls and those two guys are just for nothing!
They can't delay for a moment, and let the other side reach this position.
The possum cursed in his heart, quite unhappy.
But he never thought that the whole village is gone now!
The buildings were broken into pieces, and the people were turned into meat paste.
It's not easy to find a secret passage in a large open space.
After observing for a while in the core of the formation, the possum felt relieved when he found that Rune and others were just wandering at the door.
"It's okay, the people who came are not above Sequence 7."
"Plus they don't know the password, so they can't break the stone door, so they can only stare there."
"By the time they reinforce, Lord Maldo's ceremony will have been completed."
After saying that, he waved his hand, and the scene in front of the stone door suddenly unfolded in the air.
The possum said to his men, "You just keep watch here. I'm going back to continue admiring the miracle. Don't call me unless it's important."
He hurried and was about to leave, but was stopped immediately.
"Lord Possum!"
"What's the matter!"
"They seem to be able to open the stone door!"
"Impossible! Only Lord Maldo and I know the password. Even the two guys on the ground don't know it!"
But when he turned around, the password entered by Rune on the screen was already half correct.
