Chapter 67: Resisting the Ring of Fire
Breaking the shield in one second does not mean that Zou Peng can kill Mo Lan in one second.
Combat is not a numerical game, where you win by having higher attack power.
If you really want to say it, Mo Lan only needs one move to kill Zou Peng, a fireball or a wind blade will do, and he doesn't even have a shield.
In the end it all depends on your personal strength and skills.
After testing the strength of the water shield technique , Mo Lan carefully examined the spell model of the water shield technique.
As a second-level spell, the spell model of Water Shield is relatively complex, but Mo Lan is currently only studying the central control structure of Water Shield.
After a while, he began to study his fireball technique.
He opened the system notepad and flipped to the previous experimental report on the fireball technique, checking the last part to see that various experiments had been designed but not implemented.
In the first experiment, a fireball fell into the lake.
"boom!"
The fireball exploded and water splashed everywhere, but this power did not make Mo Lan happy. Instead, he modified the spell model again.
"Explosion, yes, I want explosion. The Wind Blade modified into the Wind Spell is not powerful enough. It can only defend against lighter ranged attacks at best.
If it were a human, the wind wouldn't be strong enough to blow it, but this kind of explosive force should be able to provide it.
It was just like when I was blown away by the fireball before, but I had to control the direction of the fireball's explosion, and control the direction of the flames and air waves that came out of the explosion.
Otherwise it would be pure suicide, but what to do?"
Mo Lan fell into deep thought.
When Mo Lan is thinking, he likes to look at his previous notes and research records, trying to sort out his thoughts and thus stimulate inspiration.
But when Mo Lan came to the idea of modifying the fireball technique, he paused for a moment.
After a while, a fireball twice as big as usual flew towards the lake.
Zou Peng glared at the fireballs that were as big as his two heads and quickly dodged.
"Your fireball is too much."
boom!
The fireball that just exploded made Zou Peng, who was dodging it, feel something was wrong.
"Why isn't it powerful enough?"
"Well, it looks bigger, but its actual power has dropped by half."
Mo Lan nodded lightly.
"I accidentally adjusted it wrong just now and reduced the power of the explosion."
After Mo Lan finished speaking, he lowered his head again and thought as he walked.
“The main spell nodes of the Fireball spell model are temperature and explosion.
The combination of the two, high temperature and high explosion, forms a fireball technique like a howitzer.
Well, lethality is not my first choice, so I can keep the high temperature to a minimum.
High explosive power is the source of thrust in spell design and must be strengthened."
Mo Lan designed and calculated at the same time.
"Adjust it here and change the shape of the fireball."
After a while, Zou Peng saw a circular ring of fire flying towards the lake.
The fire ring exploded without a sound, but the huge impact force caused the water surface to sink, and huge waves were raised to cover the shore.
Zou Peng just felt his whole body get wet and the lake water poured over him.
Compared with before, there was less white water vapor on the lake surface this time.
Obviously, the temperature of this ring of fire has been lowered.
Mo Lan also smiled when he saw the effect.
"As long as we can weaken the impact from within, it will be a perfect success."
The air on the grass was fresh after the splash of lake water. Mo Lan felt refreshed all over, and endless inspiration surged from his mind.
Mo Lan perfected the fire ring spell bit by bit, but in the end he was still stumped by the direction of the impact force.
Mo Lan did not find any way to control the impact force after the explosion of the fire ring.
As I was thinking hard, an idea suddenly came to my mind.
"As long as I release it at the right angle, the impact will come from all directions at the same time, and the pushing forces will cancel each other out. Then I just need to block the damage from the fire ring."
Thinking from this perspective, Mo Lan's thoughts suddenly became clear.
"Zou Peng, attack me as fast as you can."
Upon hearing this, Zou Peng used his fighting spirit to stimulate his muscles without waiting for Mo Lan to finish his words, and he rushed towards Mo Lan in a flash.
"Fuck, you have no martial ethics ."
Mo Lan complained, and a water shield covered his body, just blocking Zou Peng's attack.
Elemental fluctuations and fighting spirit fluctuations appeared at the same time, but just when Zou Peng was about to break the shield, a circle of fire ring appeared outside the water shield, directly attached to the water shield. It was very precise, and the distance from every point on the fire ring to Mo Lan was exactly the same, without the slightest difference.
When Zou Peng saw the fire ring, he felt something was wrong. He turned around, hugged his legs, and curled up into a ball in the air.
In silence, the fire ring exploded and grew rapidly. A ring of fire expanded horizontally, followed by a powerful thrust.
The fire ring covered an area of five meters around Mo Lan. The ground was lifted up wherever the fire ring passed.
The ring of fire disappeared, but the pushing force did not disappear. Instead, it crushed all the grass and bushes in the area.
Zou Peng in the air only felt an almost irresistible thrust enveloping his whole body, directly throwing him out.
Zou Peng, flying backwards in the air, spread his body and did several somersaults. Finally, he staggered and landed more than ten meters away. He took several steps back before stopping. He looked at Mo Lan while panting, and saw a faint smile on his face.
"So what? A sneak attack is useless, right? Not following martial ethics is useless, right? Haha."
"What kind of spell is this? What level is it? If all mages can do this, then close combat is better off.
If they are at a long distance, they will be killed by your spells. If they rush to kill you at close range, they will be pushed away by the fire ring and become at a long distance.
Then he was blasted to death by magic."
"This spell is one I created, let's call it Fire Resistant Ring. It's not complicated, a first-level spell, and doesn't cost much to cast.
However, I have to put on a shield every time I cast a spell, otherwise I suspect I will be crushed to death by the fire resistance ring.
Although the temperature is not very high, such a strong thrust is enough to crush someone to death.
Moreover, the fire ring can only resist the surrounding areas, there is a loophole in the sky, as long as you jump close to me and over my head, you can basically avoid it. "
When Zou Peng heard that there were so many restrictions and a loophole that could be easily exploited, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Zou Peng: “(^~^)”
“But don’t worry, this is only the first version of the fire resistance ring. I will definitely make up for the loophole in the sky as soon as possible. It’s not very difficult, it’s just average.
Then there is the issue of the shield. I will find a way to restrain the direction of the impact of the fire ring so that I will not get hurt while increasing the external impact force. "
Zou Peng: “(* ̄m ̄)”
"In fact, there is another loophole that is not really a loophole, but it is also quite fatal."
Zou Peng: “(^o^)”
"If we encounter any power-type warriors, they will most likely use a point-breaking technique to break through the fire ring and get close to us."
Mo Lan saw that Zou Peng was somewhat happy and immediately smiled.
"Of course, this has nothing to do with you. For an assassin, no matter what fancy tricks you use, you can't avoid the 360-degree resistance fire ring.
Ha, stay away from me!"
Zou Peng: "(ノ=Д=)ノ┻━┻"
