Very soon, he found a spell with a very magical sounding na inside the witch’s tail ring.
[Soft and Fluffy Spell: Can make so things turn soft and fluffy, a must have spell for housewives.]
'Will it work against petrification?'
'No idea, but it is better than nothing.'
'Skills never weighed you down anyway.'
Ethan did not care whether it would be useful or not. He first used the duplicator to copy ten copies, then used up one forged skill book.
The rest he kept for backup, or to give to the people under him.
The next second, so knowledge about soft and fluffy skills appeared in Ethan’s brain.
But the only problem was that this [Soft and Fluffy Spell] had an insanely long chant, almost two hundred characters long. Just reciting it took more than a minute.
And the chant was like a tongue twister, winding and twisting all over the place.
He really could not understand.
'It is just a soft and fluffy spell, right?'
'How did it end up being more troubleso than the Great Fireball, or that whatever useless freezing spell?'
“If only there was sothing to shorten casting ti,” Ethan was thinking.
And at that mont, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind. He rembered a piece of equipnt that had dropped long ago from the Nightmare Rat King.
That piece of equipnt seed to be sothing that could shorten chant ti.
[Spell Scepter: can increase spell casting success rate, and also shorten chanting ti. A pretty decent beginner staff. Spell success rate 20%, chant ti -3S]
Ethan took it out and took a look. Even though it was only a beginner scepter, it still seed pretty good.
Saving a few seconds was still saving ti.
“Jibber jabber, bala bala, mali mali...”
Holding the scepter, Ethan tried casting the spell on a rock next to him.
Then he chanted for a full minute.
Wait, no, one minute minus three seconds, a total of fifty seven seconds.
Whoosh!
A beam of red light shot straight toward the rock.
The originally hard rock imdiately lted into sothing soft and fluffy, like lted chocolate.
Ethan gently poked it with his finger.
“Yuck!”
It was kind of gross, this poop poking feeling.
And the temperature of the softened rock did not go up or down, it stayed the sa as before.
The only thing that changed was the material. It went from hard to soft and fluffy, as if so of its internal molecules had changed, causing a qualitative shift.
Of course, that was just Ethan’s guess. This world was strange to begin with.
So whatever happened was normal.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
And just as Ethan finished studying the soft and fluffy spell, a shaking, earth rattling sound suddenly ca from the distance, as if so huge thing was running wildly across the ground.
“Lord!”
Wood Eight and the others were shocked.
Ethan also frowned and was about to send out the white eagle to scout.
But before the white eagle could take off, Ethan saw one big and one small figure burst through the fog, running madly toward their position.
The small one was naturally Daji, who was sprinting with all four legs.
And behind Daji was a giant stone man, nearly ten ters tall, its whole body a gray rock like color, with patches of moss and green plants growing on so parts of it.
And at its heart, a ball of green light was shining through its body.
[Ruins Stone Man: a creature petrified by the many eyed monster. Its soul is parasitic on stone, gradually condensing into a Ruins Stone Man, and it will automatically beco a guard of the many eyed monster.]
“Holy crap!”
“So the many eyed monster even has guards?”
“And judging by its size, its combat power probably is not weak.”
Boom!
Before Ethan even finished speaking, the stone man had already raised its huge stone arm and swung it forward.
With her agile body, Daji quickly jumped out of the stone man’s attack range.
But the ground under Daji’s feet did not have that kind of luck.
The ground was smashed into a huge pit two ters wide by the stone man’s massive arm.
In an instant dust filled the air.
Stone chips and sand flew everywhere.
“ow!”
Taking advantage of the mont when the stone man swung its arm, Daji quickly jumped onto the stone arm, used it as a springboard, and leaped onto the stone man’s head.
Then she stretched out her sharp claws and slashed at the stone man’s head.
Scratch! Scratch!
A sound of tal and stone colliding rang in everyone’s ears.
Ethan even saw sparks fly across the stone man’s face under Daji’s claws.
The effect was just like hacking a live wire with a kitchen knife, sparks and lightning all the way.
But even so, the stone man did not react at all.
After all, it was made of stone.
Daji’s claws were basically just tickling it, no damage at all.
“ROAR!”
Even though there was no damage, the stone man was still successfully angered by Daji.
It imdiately swung its massive stone arm at its own face, trying to slap Daji, that little fly, to death.
BANG!
A passionate collision between stone and stone.
In an instant, sparks flew everywhere, and chunks of rock were knocked off both the stone man’s head and arm.
But luckily, Daji escaped.
“Lord, what do we do?”
Looking at the giant in front of them, Wood Eight was completely stunned.
This stone man was way too huge. With their combat power, could they really beat it?
“How about we all team up and do sliding tackles? One person is not enough, but ten of us should be able to kill it, right?”, Herb Three suggested.
But Ethan could not help but laugh and cry, “Give a break. You guys would not even be enough to make it into atballs for it. One punch from it and you are done.”
“Uh…”
Hearing that, everyone felt a little dejected.
Back when they were just ordinary people, it was fine if they could not help. But now they had learned skills and changed equipnt, yet they still could not help, which felt pretty bad.
“Fall back! All of you, fall back to the side!”
But Ethan did not have ti to listen to them now. Seeing the stone man charging over in a thunderous way, he hurriedly waved everyone back, “Let handle this stone man!”
“But Lord, how can we let you face danger alone?”, Wood Eight was worried.
After all, no matter how you looked at it, this stone man was not sothing the Lord’s small fra could handle.
A stone man over ten ters tall, one sneeze might blow the Lord away, right?
“Stop the damn nonsense and get to the side when I tell you to!”
Ethan kicked them all aside one by one, then quickly held up the scepter and started chanting at the stone man.
And before he could finish that long long long chant, the stone man had already rushed to within barely ten ters of Ethan. For a normal person, that might still take several steps to reach, but for the stone man, it was just one and a half steps.
