Chapter 328: The Knight and the Ancient Cockroach
A strange hoarse cry was heard not far away, and Ayton followed the sound to look across the river, giving him a faint sense of foreboding.
"That scream..."Catherine also frowned secretly, and she also felt the rich abyssal aura in front of her approach.
"Master, something seems to be approaching here. Mei'er's reminder came into her ears, Ayton's face changed slightly, looked at the little priest next to him, and shouted urgently, "Run." ”
As he spoke, he left a striking sign on a tree by the river, and ran with Catherine towards the land.
As soon as they moved, a huge figure broke through the ground on the opposite bank of the river, with giant horns like unicorn fairies and long oily yellow striped tentacles on both sides, and the one who came was the culprit who caused them to fall off the cliff before, the ancient cockroach.
Hearing this, Catherine was immediately frightened by the ugly creature and hurried to follow Ayton's footsteps.
The ancient cockroaches in the rear also found the two people on the other side of the river, and the two oily yellow tentacles sensed the fluctuations of the light element in the air below, and the huge size burrowed into the ground again, and the earthquake from the ground continued to approach the two who fled.
"Mei'er, what the hell is going on with that monster!" Ayton was anxious, with the current combat strength of the two of them, they were definitely not the opponent of that monster.
"What else can it be, the two light bodies that have taken Shelley's Flower are standing together, there must have been a slight change in the light element in the air, I can feel this, how can it not be sensed by the abyss breath polluted by it. ”
“... Well, tell me how to get rid of it first."
"Isn't this simple, then it depends on whether you are willing to do it, master. ”
“... Forget it, don't talk about it" Ayton quickly realized that what she was trying to say was plotting against the little priest behind her, telling her to stay and drag down the pursuing ancient cockroaches. But he is more afraid of the counterattack in human nature, knowing that he is going to die, and he has to pull the betrayer of him to stay together, so it is better to work together to escape together.
The tremor was becoming more and more pronounced, and it seemed that the ground was about to leave the dense forest and enter a ruined area of ruins, with several towering stone pillars, hard stone brick floors, and scattered soul eaters...
Seeing this, Ayton's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he sped up and ran towards the ruins, while not forgetting to greet the little priest behind him.
"Run here!"
......
"Damn orcs, who the hell are you!Why do you want to help those fallen dark elves!" Sothikin's sword-wielding hands trembled slightly, his eyes glaring angrily at the mammoth orcs in front of him.
"Hehe" Renisian laughed contemptuously, "Didn't you do it to me first?"
Then he turned to look at the three Ariel, who were being entangled by the two silver knights, "Besides, only one of them is a dark elf, right?"
"Bastard, I'm fighting you!" Sotwick roared angrily, seven or eight of his men had fallen around him, and no matter what the orcs were, both sides had made a mortal enmity!
On the other side of the battle group, Cleveland relied on the strength of a fourth-order peak magician to suppress a third-order silver knight, and Ariel relied on the cover of starry night magic to constantly dodge the attacks of another person.
Suddenly, a small porcelain vase was thrown at Ariel from mid-air, and the girl caught it accurately.
"Treasures from ancient times are said to be able to recover from injuries, but I don't know if they can be used. The heroic voice came from the orc's mouth, and Ariel's eyelids twitched violently.
The knight in front of him attacked again, and while the dark elf girl dodged sideways, she threw the porcelain vase in her hand at the silver knight's face without hesitation, and the latter instinctively raised her hand to block the porcelain vase that was thrown, and suddenly felt a pain in her elbow, as if a sharp blade was inserted through the gap in the joint of the armor.
The knight stepped back again and again, but the blade was stuck in the gap in the armor, and when he turned his head, it turned out to be a black dagger, and Ariel did not miss this opportunity, and his left hand exerted a dark restraint to wrap around his other hand, and a stride rushed forward, and the Nether dagger stabbed straight into his throat.
After doing all this, Ariel seemed to lose all her strength and collapsed to the ground. Starry Night trotted over to pick her up, and Cleveland's battle drew to a close, his ice spear skills piercing the knight's chest armor.
The only two remaining Silver Knights were also led by Sothikim, the latter entangled head-on, and the other two flanked and three besieged the mammoth orcs.
The successive deaths of his comrades made Sosikkin understand that his men must not fight the orcs, and he was the only one present who could resist the attacks of one or two orcs.
Renicean knew what he was thinking, and every attack of the two ordinary knights was a shallow taste, keeping an absolutely safe distance from him, and his pet, Amber. The whole time he lazily lay on the orc's shoulder, watching the silver knight's attack never break through the master's defense, and from time to time he cast a mocking look.
When Sosikkin found out that the battle on Ariel's side was over, he couldn't help but feel a little panic in his heart, knowing that he had to fight quickly, he shouted, and the silver sword slashed straight at the orc.
'Holy Light Slash'
But this seemingly powerful blow was blocked by the orc's left hand raising his sword, and the giant sword in his right hand suddenly slashed out.
The disparity in strength had no choice but to raise his sword to block, but the orcs also seized the opportunity and took turns slashing at Sosikkim. Sosikin held his sword in both hands to fend off Rainey's powerful attack, each blow shaking his hands numb and his feet sinking to the ground. The whole person was smashed into the ground by the orcs like a stake.
Suddenly, the orc's hands were raised high at the same time, and the two giant swords slashed at Sotikim's sword together, Soxikim's hands exploded, and the long sword in his hand was also broken into several pieces, and after the giant sword split the long sword, it immediately slashed on Sosikkim's chest, but was blocked by his breastplate.
But then, the lines on the orc greatsword lit up, and the armor on Sosikin's chest was sliced openly, revealing the bloody ribs inside.
"Run, leave me alone, tell Her Majesty the news and let them eradicate these degenerates. Sosikin cried out in pain as the last two of his men fled,
Reniceian sneered and slashed the silver knight who was still guarding in front of Sothikim, "You are the Fallen, and you are the one who did it first." ”
Another of his companions, taking advantage of the time between his words, wisely chose to escape.
"Don't let him go!" Ariel shouted, struggling to chase down the man, but a sense of exhaustion welled up in her body again.
Of course, she didn't need to remind her, and Reniceian knew that she couldn't let the fleeing knight go. With the two swords behind his back, his left hand was raised unhurriedly, and an ice-blue longbow gradually condensed in his hand, and then a brilliant blue arrow condensed in his other hand.
With the magic vibrating in the air, the arrow shot straight at the knight who fled with his back. Magical arrows easily pierced through his armor, and the battle finally subsided.
......
Ayton and the little priest escaped from the small jungle and found themselves among the ruins.
"Stay here, don't run around, I'll go and get it away, and you can do my bidding and restrain it. Ayton looked into the little priest's panicked eyes and admonished earnestly, then came to a clearing and released a barrier of light on his body.
The aura of the light element quickly attracted the attention of the ancient cockroaches underground, and the ground tremors continued to approach, and Yekaterin stared blankly at the ordinary-looking adventurer standing in the middle of the stone path.
"Master, here!"
Mei'er's hint was crucial, and Ayton leaped to his feet, and suddenly two tentacles slammed into his barrier of light, shattering before it could even explode. And he was also sent to the bottom of a stone pillar.
With a piercing scream, the full picture of the ancient cockroach appeared in front of Catherine's eyes again, its size was not particularly huge, only more than ten meters long, not as good as the ghost dragon controlled by Mei'er at that time, it should also be regarded as a juvenile body, but the hard shell could not be broken even by the sixth-order peak Lawujin.
The underground raid was unsuccessful, and the ancient cockroach stared at Ayton, with a large mouth full of fangs, and a mouthful of sulfuric acid spewed out, Ayton dodged the sulfuric acid sideways, but the bottom of the stone pillar he was leaning against was half eroded by the sulfuric acid.
"It's now!"
Ayton burst into a roar, and the Nether Sword swung fiercely at the bottom of the stone pillar that was half corroded by sulfuric acid, and the little priest prayed sincerely in his heart for the protection of the goddess of light, and his white hands each shone with three circles of light, gradually expanding and flying towards the six limbs of the ancient cockroach that had just broken through to the ground.
Da Da...
Gravel kept falling from above, smashing against the hard shell of the ancient cockroach, and it stuck its head out, and when it looked up, it saw a black shadow smashed against itself.
The bottom of the huge stone pillar more than twenty meters long gradually collapsed under the combined action of sulfuric acid and Ayton, falling towards the top of its head, and the six restrained tentacles could not move, and the direction of the stone pillar falling was impartial, and it happened to hit the top of its head.
Thundered...
With a loud bang, its six limbs and feet suddenly stretched outward, its body was heavily pressed to the ground by the stone pillar, and the six circles of light also dissipated into the air under its fierce resistance.
Naturally, Ayton would not let go of the opportunity to beat the water dogs, he got up and jumped into the barbed carapace of the ancient cockroach, and the long sword was aimed at the more fragile lines of its carapace, but the blow he tried with all his strength could only barely penetrate the flesh.
With the roar of the ancient cockroach on the soles of his feet, the stone pillar was shaken down by it, Ayton didn't dare to stay for a long time, his fighting spirit concentrated on his legs, jumped onto another stone pillar, the long sword was deeply inserted in a gap in the stone pillar, and his body also borrowed the blade stuck in the gap to stabilize his body on the round stone pillar.
Seeing this scene, Catherine immediately understood what he wanted to do, to attract the monster's attack, and she was using magic support from a distance, using the hardness of the floor to make it difficult for cockroaches to dive underground, and then using the monster's bulky size and the huge stone pillars around it to attack.
The plan can be said to put herself to death and come back to life, while she herself is in the safest place. With an indescribable emotion in her heart, Catherine closed her eyes and cast two auxiliary spells in succession to bless Ayton.
'Blessing of Light' 'Blessing of Light'
Two consecutive warm and holy rays of light hit Ayton's body, and the originally tired spirit and physical strength were immediately restored, as if the body was full of infinite strength.
It's much easier to fight now... The corners of Ayton's mouth smiled slightly, and he concentrated all his energy, and the moment the ancient cockroach used its horns to collide, he turned over and came to its back again, and stabbed his long sword into the opening left just now.
The sharpness of the epic longsword easily broke through a 15cm-long rift, and a large amount of black liquid flowed out of it, but this little thing was far from fatal for its large size.
It will take two or three more times...
Dodging the attack, Ayton jumped to a stone pillar again, his eyes fixed on the enraged ancient cockroach, waiting for his next chance. Catherine also condensed six circles of light, waiting for Ayton's order at any time.
Roar...
Two oily yellow tentacles began to dance in black arcs, forming two beams of light above Ayton's head, which gradually coalesced into a black ball of electricity.
'Thundernet Cage'!
