Chapter 301: Wood Arrow Hero (Ask for monthly tickets)

The skeleton of the Five Elements Pawn is hard, and the charcoal-baked clay on the outside further increases the defense.

In addition to spirit stones, the spiritual power configuration also has a gathering spirit formation to extend the endurance time. The inside uses spirit-patterned ancient wood strips as the transmission route, which is very convenient.

If you want to talk about the characteristics of the Five Elements Pawn, it is that there are no characteristics.

Or rather, it is balance.

In terms of attack, defense, spiritual power, speed, etc., there is no prominent item.

This was Ning Zhuo's deliberate choice.

Without a prominent item, it will not be obviously restrained.

The second round of the Palace Examination has just begun, and he needs to strive for more competition experience. Therefore, this kind of balanced mechanism creature can have hope against anyone and can support for a longer time.

Ning Zhuo made enough Fire Essence firecrackers and pulled the loading capacity of the Five Elements Pawn to the limit.

After doing this, he still had a cup of tea time before the time limit.

The actual completion situation was even better than the plan he conceived in his heart.

He closed his eyes and rested for a while, then opened his eyes, and used this spare time to check the Five Elements Pawn from the beginning.

And he also used the pull line to manipulate it, testing its performance in all aspects.

The manipulation was just a short while, Ning Zhuo confirmed that it was correct, and stopped.

Before the battle, you can't test too much. After all, as long as the mechanism creature starts to move, it starts to wear out.

After the actual operation, Ning Zhuo still had a period of time left.

He carefully checked the table and checked the mechanism manufacturing tools in turn, but found nothing new.

For the last short period of time, Ning Zhuo closed his eyes, adjusted his breathing, and waited for the time to end.

When the time was up, Ning Zhuo opened his eyes and found that the front was suddenly clear.

He saw his opponent.

He was a short man, in martial arts attire, masked, revealing only a pair of small thin eyes.

Ning Zhuo immediately identified the other party's identity: "Feng Flying Knife, one of the three small leaders of the City Lord's Mansion reform team."

Feng Flying Knife was a bit flustered.

The time limit was up, and he was still making arrows for his mechanism doll.

But the arena sent both people's mechanism dolls to the middle area after the time limit arrived.

Ning Zhuo stared at the opponent's mechanism doll.

This yellow-green doll was tall and thin, holding a long bow, carrying an arrow quiver on its back, and two small arrow quivers tied to its waist.

There were a lot of arrows in the arrow quiver, but they were not filled.

Seeing the Five Elements Pawn, which was burly and piled with a large amount of charcoal-baked clay on the surface, Feng Flying Knife immediately pulled his palm and pulled his Wood Arrow Hero back toward his direction.

Expressed in the center of the arena, the mechanism Wood Arrow Hero exploded backward, quickly opening the distance between itself and the Five Elements Pawn.

"This speed..." Ning Zhuo couldn't help but frown.

The Wood Arrow Hero was simply as light and fast as the wind, opening the distance easily.

In terms of speed, its advantage was clear at a glance.

Ning Zhuo quickly judged: "Judging from the appearance and this action, the other party used materials mainly based on spirit-patterned ancient wood."

"It seems to have completely abandoned heavy objects like Fist Gold and charcoal-baked clay."

"Therefore, it performed quite well in terms of speed!"

After opening the distance, the Wood Arrow Hero quickly bent the bow and set the arrow, launching a shot at the Five Elements Pawn.

Swish, swish, swish.

The arrows shot over, some exploded with a bang. Some turned into ice cones instantly, with piercing effects.

It turned out that Feng Flying Knife used Fire Essence and frost flower large water droplets to make arrows.

Ning Zhuo manipulated the Five Elements Pawn, walking forward step by step, being shot constantly in the process.

Fortunately, he put a lot of thought into defense.

Almost the entire frost flower large water droplet was used by him to arrange formations, hidden in the Five Elements Pawn's body, flowing like blood.

The frost flower large water droplets surged out, quickly condensing into a huge round shield, covering almost the entire body of the Five Elements Pawn.

Most of the arrows shot on the shield surface, with little effect.

A sharp glint flashed in Feng Flying Knife's eyes, and he was not panicked.

When he designed the Wood Arrow Hero, he had considered how to deal with iron lumps like the Five Elements Pawn.

The next moment, his fingers moved frequently, manipulating the Wood Arrow Hero to take out three arrows from the large arrow quiver behind him.

The Wood Arrow Hero nocked all three arrows onto the bow and fired them in a full-draw volley!

The three arrows did not shoot on the Five Elements Pawn, but fell at its feet.

The arrows took root on the arena ground, grew rapidly, turned into countless thorns, and spread toward the Five Elements Pawn rapidly.

Ning Zhuo quickly pulled his palm back, pulling the Five Elements Pawn back a few steps.

At the same time, his fingers moved frequently, directing the Five Elements Pawn to reach into its belly and take out a handful of Fire Essence firecrackers.

The firecrackers were sprinkled, and they exploded with a bang.

The thorn bushes were destroyed, and the ground was pitch black.

The Five Elements Pawn stepped forward, continuing to approach the Wood Arrow Hero.

Feng Flying Knife's brows wrinkled.

His attack means had been exhausted, but he could not win.

"For now, the only way is to strive for victory through a war of attrition."

"Ning Zhuo's mechanism creature is heavy, and every move consumes much more spiritual power than mine."

"And its shield is heavy and large, maintaining such a huge shield surface also consumes a lot of spiritual power."

"On the contrary, my Wood Arrow Hero is almost all made of spirit-patterned ancient wood, and its efficiency in absorbing spiritual energy from the surroundings is far beyond the opponent. There is also a gathering spirit formation in the body, comparing spiritual power consumption, I have the advantage!"

The scene fell into a stalemate.

Ning Zhuo's Five Elements Pawn held the shield and moved forward, Feng Flying Knife's Wood Arrow Hero maintained the distance and shot constantly.

Both sides attacked and defended, and the situation was quite obvious.

The space of the arena is limited, Ning Zhuo used this point, carefully designed the movement of the Five Elements Pawn, and approached step by step.

Feng Flying Knife's experience was also quite old-fashioned, using the circular edge characteristics of the arena, always moving and shifting, without any mistakes in movement.

Ning Zhuo's expression remained unchanged, and he began to manipulate the Five Elements Pawn to throw Fire Essence firecrackers frequently.

These firecrackers came with a range of damage, forcing the Wood Arrow Hero to constantly roll and jump, increasing spiritual power consumption.

The Wood Arrow Hero fought back with bows and arrows, almost all of which were blocked by Ning Zhuo's water shield.

Occasionally a few arrows hit the body, but because of the charcoal-baked clay, there was little effect.

Feng Flying Knife's face gradually sank.

He discovered one of his disadvantages—the arrows were not enough!

On the other hand, Ning Zhuo's side, Fire Essence firecrackers seemed to be endless.

For Feng Flying Knife, his time to refine the mechanism was not enough. But for Ning Zhuo, his time was more than enough.

In terms of making mechanisms, Ning Zhuo's advantage was preserved, and at this moment, it was reflected on the battlefield.

Feng Flying Knife realized this, and immediately reduced the frequency of shooting, cautiously using every arrow.

Seeing the other party's performance, Ning Zhuo immediately reduced the area of the water shield, shrinking it to the size of a conventional shield, which could protect the upper body, instead of almost the whole body before.

"This water shield can actually shrink, it's not a form!" Feng Flying Knife received another nightmare.

The shrunken water shield, naturally, the consumption of spiritual power is not that great.

Feng Flying Knife tried to be calm: "Even so, my absorption of spiritual power is still much higher than yours!"

"This long-term war of attrition, I will be the final winner!"

Ning Zhuo had a serious look.

He naturally also analyzed where the opponent's advantage lay.

Therefore, every subsequent throw of firecrackers, he went all out.

As time passed, the middle-grade spirit stone on the Wood Arrow Hero had been exhausted, relying on the external spiritual energy absorbed from the beginning of the battle to act.

Without the support of abundant spiritual power, its speed dropped by a large margin.

Ning Zhuo's situation was far from as bad as Feng Flying Knife imagined.

Under normal circumstances, the Five Elements Pawn's middle-grade spirit stone would have been exhausted long ago. But now, it still retained 10% of the spirit stone reserve.

This is because Ning Zhuo adopted the arrangement of Five Elements mutual generation, every time he used the water-element water shield, fire-element firecrackers, and earth-element body defense, the magic power consumed was much less than direct consumption.

The spiritual power reserve of the Five Elements Pawn kept up with the Wood Arrow Hero and was not thrown away.

The balance of victory, at this moment, began to gradually tilt toward it.

The Wood Arrow Hero's speed was greatly reduced, making it easier to be killed by Fire Essence firecrackers in a range.

These damages accumulated, accumulating little by little, destroying the spirit patterns, making its efficiency in absorbing external spiritual energy constantly decrease, which can be described as adding frost to snow.

Finally, the slow-moving Five Elements Pawn forced the Wood Arrow Hero, whose speed was severely reduced, into a corner.

Both sides started close combat.

The Wood Arrow Hero's fist hit the Five Elements Pawn, scraping off a layer of stone skin.

The Five Elements Pawn's fist smashed down, every time it made a bang, smashing the Wood Arrow Hero into pits of fist marks.

This gap is too obvious!

Finally, the Five Elements Pawn beat the Wood Arrow Hero until its legs were broken and its hands were folded, paralyzed on the ground, motionless.

Feng Flying Knife stared at this scene, his hands shaking, his veins exposed, almost cramping.

In the close combat stage, his manipulation was pulled to his personal limit. After all, the Wood Arrow Hero was weak in close combat, and to maintain the scene, he must make more operations.

He was so busy that his fingers almost tied together, but in the end, he still tasted the bitter fruit of failure.

Ning Zhuo defeated the first enemy and gained one battle result.

New information came, allowing him to rest for half a cup of tea.

He was teleported to the square.

Standing outside the arena, he found that almost all arenas were fighting.

Even the arena he had just been in immediately became blurred and could not be seen clearly, obviously another two cultivators were competing.

In the square, there were only two people.

One was Ning Zhuo, and the other was a Jin Dan cultivator from the City Lord's Mansion.

There was no need for any communication between the two sides.

Ning Zhuo's heart moved: "After the first round of the Palace Examination and before the second round of the Palace Examination, another Foundation Establishment cultivator was assassinated."

"That is to say, only twenty-two cultivators participated in the second round of the Palace Examination."

"But there are only two people in the field, which means that this spot still exists. This means that in the subsequent competition, I may encounter this empty spot."

Just now in the arena, Ning Zhuo could not see the situation under the arena, otherwise he could have calculated it long ago.

"As stated in the message, everyone has to fight everyone else once. Although one person is lost, the spot is still reserved, the same as the first round of the Palace Examination."

"Therefore, it can still be counted as twenty-three."

Ning Zhuo calculated: "In that case, the total number of battles reached two hundred and fifty-three."

"There are ten arenas. Assuming they start at the same time and end at the same time, they have to carry out twenty-five rounds."

"This is just the content of the first competition. According to the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, the second round of the Palace Examination will have at least three times."

"Plus the rest time between each time, so the total duration of the second round of the Palace Examination is at least ten days or more."
