Chapter 418 Fire and Weapons
"Is this fire alive?"
After receiving this information, Lin Yu only took a few seconds to make a judgment.
He walked straight to the side of the stove, stretched out his foot and gently kicked the bottom edge of the stove.
"Hey, come out."
Fen was shocked by Lin Yu's behavior, but she quickly reacted.
"Wait, is this medical worker hiding in the furnace?"
"It's inside," Lin Yu said calmly, "but it's not hidden."
He told Fern the truth about the situation.
And then, the flame leaped and condensed into a blurry face above the stove.
"Hey, you two aren't hurt, why are you calling me?!"
"A healing place is not a place for cowards like you to avoid battle!"
The flames in the stove rumbled as he spoke in a rough tone.
Fern was greatly shocked by this scene.
"What life form is this?"
"Ignorant human contestant, I am a spirit." The "mouth" on the flaming face opened and closed, spewing sparks and scorching breath. "I am an ancient and mysterious being, the most perfect life form. Even among spirits, I am the most powerful."
"Ghost?"
Lin Yu frowned slightly when he heard this.
He recalled that there were indeed monsters in the information Shen Bingmiao provided.
This is a rare form of life, mostly existing in the form of "energy body".
There are three common types of monsters: earthquake monsters, hurricane monsters, and thunderstorm monsters.
They are often born from various natural disasters in the Black Swamp Realm. They cannot reproduce and have a long lifespan, but they are also extremely rare.
A spirit can often live for three to five hundred years.
Spirits are the favorite "assistants" of powerful human shamans and elves. Good spirits are even treated as some kind of inherited treasures, passed down from generation to generation until they completely disappear.
Because the information did not mention the "flame" type of monster, Lin Yu did not notice it at first.
But he soon realized that if the fire was alive, it would perfectly fit the definition of a spirit.
It is very likely a monster born in a forest fire.
And the flame-shaped face spoke again in a chattering and proud tone.
"I've survived from ancient times until now, and have witnessed countless battles and countless deaths and lives... So, you two fools, you should be grateful that I'm here today at this Glory Festival to manage your infirmary and heal your injuries!"
As the fire monster spoke, Lin Yu narrowed his eyes.
Has it survived from ancient times?
He began to recall the information about the monsters' weaknesses provided by Shen Bingmiao.
Although this kind of life moves in the form of an "energy body", its essence is not a ghost-like life. It's just that 90% of its body is composed of energy.
Deep in the energy body of the spirits, there is still a physical part that is wrapped and surrounded... The great shamans of the human race call that thing "eye" - and depending on the type of spirit, the specific name of the eye is different.
Generally speaking, it is a simple word composed of the form of existence of a spirit plus its eyes.
For example, "Fengmu", "Shanmu" and so on.
If you want to kill monsters, you have to destroy their eyes: compared to the outer energy body, which is often exaggeratedly large and can even expand actively, this "eye" is often more fragile.
Therefore, Shen Bingmiao's commentary suggestion is: "Use high-penetration long-range attacks or use energy interference to break through the outer layer and then use explosive projectiles."
After Lin Yu thought about this method, he quickly thought of the best way to kill this thing.
"This spirit is probably some kind of fire spirit, captive and kept here by a barbarian tribe or a Xueluo. Therefore, the furnace outside has limitations on it, and its outer flames cannot expand indefinitely."
"If you want to kill him, you can use the surrounding freezing effect of [Frost Blessing] to forcibly neutralize the high temperature in the furnace and weaken the outer flames. Then, throw the self-destruct robot in to blow up its 'eyes'."
"Or maybe I could just refresh the [One-Hit Pistol] and then destroy it..."
After Lin Yu figured out how to quickly kill this thing, he felt a lot more at ease.
He didn't implement it right away—it was just a matter of having the plan.
Lin Yu even showed a friendly and peaceful attitude towards the fire monster that he had just made an effective killing plan for.
"We just want to take advantage of the weapons that the rules provide us as individual competitors."
As he spoke calmly, the flames that made up the monster's face jumped, as if in shock.
"Ha, well, weapons... that's the thing."
As he spoke, the face thought for a moment, and then transformed into a huge hand of purple-red flames.
The flaming palm flew out of the furnace, burning fiercely, and began to "search" in the surrounding sacks and wooden boxes.
Surprisingly, the purple flaming hand did not ignite anything around it.
Lin Yu took advantage of the moment when the hand flew past him to feel it secretly. The temperature was very low, probably just slightly higher than his body temperature.
Maybe they are slightly inferior to themselves when they have a fever!
But it makes sense. If this thing is a monster that burns everything indiscriminately, he shouldn't be in charge of the healing center!
At least since there was no one else here, it should have been personally responsible for treating and bandaging the eight seriously injured and dying soldiers.
After searching for a while, the flaming hand soon dragged out a rare metal box.
The box was so huge that it looked like an oversized freezer for wholesale ice cream.
"Oh!"
The flaming hand roughly tore off the lock on the metal box and opened it, revealing the copper weapons inside that were shining with a cold light.
"Here, pick something that suits you best—they're all made by demon craftsmen, and each one is truly extraordinary!"
The flame spoke proudly, as if it had also participated in the casting.
Fern looked at the dazzling weapon, a look of joy at the harvest appearing on his face.
"Wow, so many weapons!"
She squatted down and began to pick carefully, as if she was shopping in the vegetable market.
Lin Yu could see that Fen seemed to be very good at using swords and other weapons - although in the previous battle she was an "archer" who used crossbows to help from a distance, she seemed to be no ordinary expert in close combat.
She picked up a straight knife that was about the length of her forearm, swung it casually twice, stabbed it twice, then swung it twice, and finally sheathed the knife and threw it lightly to catch it.
The movements are incredibly smooth.
From this, Lin Yu could judge that the other party was definitely a master with swords.
Because only those who often use weapons can test the length and weight of a weapon in this way, and do it so smoothly.
and so……
Lin Yu asked directly.
"You're quite adept with bladed short-medium weapons, Hunter."
