Chapter 261: Arcane: Nine-Poisonous Python
[Ding! An unknown paralysis toxin has been detected in the air. Please be cautious...]
“Eh…”
When Ryan heard the system's prompt, he knew it was that [Poisonous Hand] Gizela who took action.
He also exclaimed in his heart: "What a brilliant way to use poison. It is colorless and odorless, and there is absolutely no difference. He is indeed worthy of being a poison expert!"
If there hadn't been a system prompt, Ryan wouldn't have been able to tell that a new toxin had been mixed into the air, which already had a slight toxin in it.
Moreover, it is a very powerful "paralyzing toxin".
Generally, paralyzing toxins work in two ways: the first is to block the body's nerve signals from being transmitted back to the brain, making people unable to feel the existence of their limbs; the other is to directly paralyze the muscles, making the body stiff.
This thing is the second type, and its toxicity is similar to the toxin that Ryan extracted from the venom gland of the kobold before.
Unfortunately, this paralyzing poison, which is enough to paralyze ordinary high-level extraordinary people, has no effect on him.
…
Those who like to use poison usually don't like to hang out together.
Because poison is an indiscriminate group damage.
It was obviously impossible just to target Ryan, so he didn't use a deadly toxin, but a paralyzing toxin that would make a person's body stiff.
At the moment when the system prompt appeared, Young Master George in Ryan's hand and Gannix beside him suddenly became stiff.
A moment later, Gannix finally realized what was happening. His face suddenly changed and he said in a hurry, "Be careful, the air is poisonous!"
Ryan had naturally noticed it a long time ago.
But he didn't say anything, his eyes turned and he stopped.
Seeing this scene, [Poison Hand] Gizela, who was not far away, also had a triumphant smile on his face. He chuckled confidently and said, "Haha, it looks like the drug is working."
The top leaders of the Rosas family also understood something instantly.
They breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the crisis was resolved instantly.
"Master Gizela, you still have a solution."
"Yeah... After catching this lunatic, the head of the family will have an explanation."
"Catch him first. After we get information out of him through torture, we must not let him off easily."
“…”
Everyone was amazed when they witnessed Gizela's amazing skills in using poison.
No one could see how she did it, and no one could see how the other party fell for it. This mysterious method effortlessly resolved a crisis. Any other extraordinary profession could not have done better.
The guards also breathed a sigh of relief. The young master's life was finally saved, and they were spared the fate of being buried with him.
Although Young Master George's body was stiff and numb, he was delighted when he heard the words of [Poison Hand] Gizela in the distance.
Finally, the fear of death that loomed in my heart dissipated.
After catching this "mysterious man", he no longer has to live in fear all day long.
George was so happy that he cried. The urgent desire for "revenge" in his heart could no longer be suppressed.
You almost scared me to death.
Let me snap my fingers.
Let you poke my waist...
Thinking of this, George couldn't bear it anymore and roared, "Hahahaha...lock them up quickly. I'm going to skin this guy, break his fingers, poke his kidneys, and torture him enough!!!"
However, as soon as these words were spoken, an accident happened that no one expected.
Before the guards came over, he was responded with a sharp dagger.
"Puchi" another knife stabbed George's other kidney, and another stream of blood spurted out.
Behind him, the devil-like voice came again, asking indifferently: "Hey, Young Master George, are you so impatient to skin me alive?"
Ryan drew out his knife as usual and turned to glance at the people from the Rosas family opposite him.
Just this one look made the guards on the opposite side dare not move rashly.
…
The paralyzing poison prevented George from feeling much pain, but he could see a stream of blood spurting out of his body.
His expression was frozen.
My mood was like riding a roller coaster, from the excitement of being rescued to despair in an instant.
The same look of shock appeared on the face of the Rosas family member opposite who was sharpening his knife.
They stared in astonishment at Ryan, who stabbed George again after a disagreement, their eyes frozen there.
[Poisonous Hand] Gizela was even more incredulous, and said in astonishment: "How is it possible! How come you are not paralyzed..."
It was obvious that the other two were poisoned, so why wasn't he?
However, doubts aside, the facts are right before our eyes.
Gannix was poisoned without any warning and was in despair. He had just lost all hope, but suddenly he saw Mr. Ryan create a miracle again.
He was not affected by the poison at all!
Without thinking too much, Gannix saw Ryan inject himself with an antidote. After a moment, the numbness dissipated and he felt his body again.
Fortunately, there were hostages and the other party did not use deadly poison, otherwise Ryan would be fine, but Gannix would probably not survive.
Although Ryan felt that he was already alert enough, the opponent, a veteran strong man, might still have some hidden cards.
Without further ado, he whispered to Gannix, "Go along this wall, and remember to avoid the rainbow poison gas. There is a door leading to the third floor over there. Go there and wait for me."
Although I don't understand why Ryan asked me to go to the third floor of the ruins.
But Gannix knew that he would not be of any help if he stayed here, and would only be a burden, so he decisively replied, "Okay. Be careful."
He took the powerful antidote handed to him by Ryan, and then walked towards the depths of the dark palace without hesitation.
…
Ryan watched Gannix disappear into the darkness and was in no hurry to leave.
When you are alone, you have more room to maneuver.
He took the bloody dagger in his hand and cut George's face twice, and said sarcastically: "Master George, your subordinates don't seem to care about your life."
Although George was paralyzed all over, he could still feel the coldness of the dagger, as if a poisonous snake was spitting its tongue at his face.
Between the extreme joy and sorrow, his spirit has completely collapsed.
He cried, "Please...let me go, I'll give you whatever you want!"
Ryan's original target was the "Seven-Colored Holy Grail", but after being ambushed by the poison just now, he became interested in Gizela's miraculous skills in using poison.
At this moment, an idea suddenly popped up in his mind, and he said, "Okay! Ask that Master Gizela to throw the storage ring over here, and I promise not to kill you."
"real?"
When George heard this, he seemed to have grasped the last straw and asked again: “You…keep your word?!”
"Um!"
Ryan raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "I promise I won't kill you."
Although George felt that the other party's words were not trustworthy, he had no choice now.
Without hesitation, he shouted to Gizela in the distance: "Master Gizela, can you please give him the storage ring? My father will definitely compensate you for all your losses."
The words came in a pleading tone.
After all, this Gizela is not from their Glory City, nor is he a retainer of their Rosas family.
What's more, as a disciple of the "Ten Legends", his status is no lower than that of a duke's son.
As soon as this voice was shouted, everyone's eyes fell on [Poison Hand] Gizela.
The face of this veteran fourth-order transcendent was gloomy.
Originally, she could have disobeyed the orders of a mere duke's son, but the current situation forced her into an awkward position.
Young Master George had personally asked for help. If she didn't do as he asked and this guy was killed, she would have to bear some responsibility in the end.
Gizela doesn't care about the life or death of such a young man.
But now her teacher had an ambiguous relationship with the top officials of the Glorious Kingdom, and she would never let such a thing happen in public.
If this gets out, it will not only damage her reputation as [Poisonous Hand] Gizela, but will also have a very bad impact on the reputation of her teacher.
Thinking of this, Gizela also made a decision.
“Hehe… Not everyone is allowed to take my things.”
Although she was still speaking harsh words, she took off the storage ring in her hand and motioned to Ryan in the distance, saying, "The storage ring is here, come and take it!"
After a pause, he added: “Get the things, don’t hurt Master George.”
Having said that, she had already made up her mind that even if she had to kill George with poison, she would never let this guy leave with her storage ring!
"Throw it over here."
Ryan can't be careless.
Although Gizela was very reluctant, she still threw the storage ring over.
Ryan walked over, but instead of taking it directly with his hands, he carefully took a piece of animal skin, wrapped it, and put it around his waist.
The system prompts that the ring is highly toxic, but it is still within the tolerable range for the time being.
Seeing the storage ring containing all his wealth being picked up, Ji Zela's face turned ugly. He could no longer hide his anger and said gloomily, "Now, should you let Master George go?"
But suddenly, she thought of Gannicos's unusual behavior of retreating into the depths of the temple... She had a bad feeling in her heart .
Could it be that there is another way out of these ruins?
George was also afraid that Ryan would destroy his bridges after crossing the river, so he said in fear: "You...promise not to kill me..."
Ryan said nothing, but kept backing away while pinching the hostage.
Although the people of the Rosas family were some distance away, they did not dare to let Ryan disappear from their sight.
What was unexpected was that Ryan's retreat route was actually towards the center of the hall!
There, there was a layer of light rainbow poisonous fog.
Ryan's body has adapted to this toxin, but for ordinary extraordinary people, it is highly toxic!
After retreating only a few hundred meters to the edge of the poisonous fog, George began to develop red spots on his exposed skin, which was a clear sign of poisoning.
At this time, the people of the Rosas family also discovered that something was wrong and shouted in surprise: "Is that guy crazy? That is a high-risk toxin area! Does he want to kill Master George?"
Hearing this, [Poison Hand] Gizela suddenly realized something and said in shock, "Oh no, that guy is going for the Holy Grail!"
She thought of the scene where Ryan was not poisoned. She couldn't understand it before, but now she completely understood that the other party also had a high resistance to poison. Maybe he was a colleague who used poison!
No wonder the other party is interested in my storage ring... So this is the case!
But by this time, it was too late.
"rush!"
Gizela didn't care about anything else and rushed towards Ryan.
Although she couldn't guess how Ryan could escape after falling to the ground, her intuition told her that if she didn't stop this guy, she would lose everything!
"Haha, I just realized it now... it's too late!"
Ryan watched the other party react and was not surprised at all.
At such a long distance, how could those guys catch up with him, a fighter whose burst speed is comparable to that of a fourth-level all-agility assassin?
I really thought too much!
Moreover, the area around the Seven-Colored Holy Grail, which was about one kilometer in radius, was a "deadly poisonous area", and those with low resistance to poison did not dare to go deep into it. Only a few dared to chase after it.
At this time, Ryan looked at Young Master George, who was foaming at the mouth due to poisoning, and muttered in his heart: "I didn't kill you. But whether you can survive depends on whether you are strong enough."
His arm strength is now astonishing. He can throw this person weighing over 100 pounds out with just one hand like a sandbag.
Seeing their young master flying out, the pursuers had to stop and catch him.
At this time, Ryan didn't even look back and went straight to the "Seven-Colored Holy Grail".
…
The snake king and the others were killed. He took the holy grail without encountering any danger, stuffed it into the storage space, and rushed towards the bronze door on the third floor without looking back.
Seeing the Holy Grail being taken away, [Poisonous Hand] Gizela's eyes turned red with anger.
This time, she took the trouble to accompany these guys to develop the ruins, all for this [Malacas's Holy Grail of All Poisons]!
Now he watched helplessly as the "treasure" he had obtained was snatched away by someone else. No matter how kind-hearted he was, he would be so angry that his lungs would explode.
But how can Ji Zela, a poison warlock, catch up with a high-level fighter who is best at escaping?
She looked at the figure and shouted, "You're looking for death!"
At this moment, she saw that she could not catch up, so she stopped and stopped attacking. She pinched her hands together and chanted a complicated spell: "Arcane - Nine Poisonous Pythons!"
The next moment, green poisonous gas surged all over her body, and suddenly condensed into nine green spotted pythons.
As soon as the spell took shape, it surged towards the Holy Grail in the distance.
…
Ryan's peripheral vision was fixed on that [Poisonous Hand] Gizela the whole time, so he naturally caught sight of her casting the spell.
When he saw the nine ferocious poisonous pythons appear again, he did not dare to be careless.
"Area spell!"
At such a long distance, Ryan was confident that his speed could dodge anything except lightning spells.
But the spells of this poison sorcerer are different.
Because, not only do you have to be wary of the impact of the spell, the green python is also highly poisonous!
The moment the spell was cast, the air seemed to explode at an extremely fast speed.
Nine giant pythons rushed forward indiscriminately, and a gust of extremely poisonous and fishy wind suddenly blew up in the hall, covering the sky and the earth.
Moreover, Gizela also predicted that Ryan was going to snatch the Holy Grail, and the spell poisonous python rushed over just one second after he got the Holy Grail.
Area spell, unavoidable.
At this moment, Ryan felt as if a strong wind pushed him from behind, and his body became lighter.
What made him feel even more strongly was that even though he was breathing, the poison gas actually merged into his body's protective fighting spirit and penetrated into every pore.
"Tsk tsk... rank suppression."
Ryan was not surprised that the protective fighting spirit was penetrated by the spell.
The extraordinary rank suppression makes the high-level fighting spirit (magic power) more condensed, and it can easily penetrate the low-level body-protecting fighting spirit.
However, although these "Nine Pythons" looked scary, their power was not that great. They were just ordinary second- and third-level spells. They did not cause any pain to Ryan's body.
But the poison in it is very deadly. If it were an ordinary third-level extraordinary person, this blow would definitely kill him!
System prompts came one after another.
[Ding! 'Unknown toxin' intrusion, please pay attention, host, expected death in ten minutes...]
"Such a strong poison..."
As soon as the poison gas penetrated his pores, Ryan felt a strong negative energy corroding his flesh and blood, so he immediately used [Divine Healing Technique] to frantically wash his entire body, instantly offsetting the poisoning state.
He took advantage of the wind and disappeared into the depths of the hall without looking back.
In the distance, [Poison Hand] Gizela chased after him in a rage.
But at her speed, how could she see Ryan's shadow?
When she reached the end of the hall, a huge bronze door a hundred meters high appeared in front of her.
