Chapter 16: The End of the Battle
I'm sorry, I'm tired and dizzy today, the last chapter was the fifteenth chapter, and this is the sixteenth
Strictly speaking, from the beginning of the battle to the present, this worm has not received a truly fatal blow, and almost all of the damage has been confined to the superficial layers of the body. However, when the number of these flesh wounds added up to a certain level, the Ground Worm was still severely damaged, and this damage was mainly caused by the loss of body fluids caused by the trauma, and the worm's movement slowed down, and its attack began to become weak, which further encouraged the opponent to attack.
"Looks like it's okay," Rhaegar thought, "that Bamore Serpent is supposed to be just a mutant product of some kind of situation, not all worms can turn into giant snakes, and elves and sub-giants can defeat this big bug." β
After the active replenishment of the original energy, Rhaegar finally regained some strength, and although he was still unable to move, he was at least able to move. He slowly rose from the ground, walked over to Willy, who was lying behind Haim, bent down, and poured a bottle of healing potion into the warrioress's mouth.
Willy's injuries weren't serious, except for the suffocation caused by the tentacles, the impact she received when she fell to the ground after falling from the worm's mouth was also the reason why she hadn't woken up yet, but in the face of the magic potion made of magic, such damage was not worth mentioning at all, and she slowly opened her eyes shortly after drinking the potion.
"Am I hurt?" Willy asked with a wink of beautiful eyes and a bit of a dazed look, "How's it going?
"Not bad," Rhaegar replied, deciding not to tell the other party about the dwarven sacrifice for the time being, "the others are fighting, but we will soon be victorious." β
As they spoke, a startling change appeared on the battlefield: the groundworm, which had been retreating under the combined attack of Nack and Heim and Merr, suddenly roared violently, and then, as if losing all strength in an instant, the towering upper body of the worm could no longer maintain its upright position, and fell heavily to the ground. The large worm, which was nearly 100 meters long, immediately began to roll wildly, its entire body spasmed and trembled as if it had been electrocuted, and green liquid gushed out of its mouth, and even the most dull person could tell that the worm would soon die.
The monster's plight did not win the team's sympathy, and after a brief pause, they resumed their fierce attacks: elven arrows struck the worm's mouth one after another, and Nack's double-edged axe continued to create wounds of varying shades on the worm's body. The only one who changed the way he fought was Mel, and after making sure that the other party would no longer pose a threat, the swamp monster descended from the sky and formed a series of tiny tentacles under its jellyfish-like body, and it carefully moved over the worm, looking for the wounds on the worm's body, and injected its own acid secretion into these wounds through the tentacles.
These injuries were undoubtedly worse for the Ground Walking Worm, and after a few moments, the large worm finally stopped rolling, and its body gradually began to stiffen.
But Nack didn't stop there, and the sub-giant relentlessly vented his anger on the corpse of the Earth-Walking Worm, which had been weakened by the death of the Worm, which had been cut deep wounds by the axe.
"That's enough," Heim shouted, "Nack, that's enough, it's dead." β
The words brought back Nack's senses, and the sub-giant who had entered a state of rage slowly stopped, he was panting with a huge axe, and his eyes flashed with fierce eyes still staring at the motionless bug viciously, as if ready to make up for a few more blows.
The blade of an axe broke through the skin of the ground worm, protruding from the inside of its body, and then moving downward, making a long cut in the worm's body.
"It's a dwarf, he's still alive. Nack, who was closest to the worm, immediately recognized the axe filled with green slimeβit was Kroll's Axe. He shouted excitedly, and at the same time rushed forward, using the double-edged axe in his hand to help the battle axe that was still in the worm's body to split the worm's body so that it could crawl out smoothly.
"We all thought you were dead," said the usually honest and taciturn sub-giant, who suddenly became nagging, and said incoherently as he vigorously broke through the surface of the worm on the ground, "We wanted to kill that big worm to avenge you, but you got out of it yourself." Thank you, gods, how did you do that? I knew that a dwarf as tough as a stone would not die so easily..."
"If you don't stop, I'll die under your axe. The dwarf's massive head finally peeked out of the worm's body, and he gulped in the air as he complained, "You've almost hurt me several times." β
The Tomahawk's accusations didn't annoy Nack, and the sub-giant smiled as he reached out and grabbed the dwarf's exposed shoulder, dragging him out of the bug's corpse, completely unconcerned about the green slime that covered the latter's body.
"Lightly, you big stupid man!" cried the dwarf, "I am not a turnip, but a wounded man who has just crawled out of the belly of a disgusting big worm." β
However, his words had no effect at all, and the sub-giant laughed loudly, and at the same time lifted him high in the air, and spun in circles, venting his inner joy.
The companions laughed ecstatically and ran towards the dwarf as fast as they could, but when they were more than ten meters away from the latter, they all stopped in unison.
"He's really embarrassed," Willy said with a frown as she looked helpless at the tomahawk, "I don't want to touch him now." β
"Me too," Heim immediately agreed, "don't try to get even a step near me until he's washed off all that slime." β
"From what I've observed, he shouldn't have been hurt except for the slime," Rhaegar immediately understood what his companions meant, "thenβ" He and the other two looked at each other and chuckled softly, and the next moment, the geist made a random gesture, and a large balloon of water appeared out of thin air above Nack and the tomahawk, and then fell.
"This is your welcome to a hero who heroically saved his companion and then took the initiative to enter the belly of a monster and destroy a monster a hundred times his size?" "The tomahawk that Nack had put down stood on the ground covered in water, yelling in exasperation, "I'm going to whip each of you in the ass with an axe!"
"Until then," Rhaegar said calmly, "you must wash yourself first. His gaze shifted to the dwarf's back, "You have two choices, either wash it yourself or let Mel wash it with you." β
Everyone turned around at the same moment and walked towards the woods in the distance, leaving only the tomahawks that were in a daze.
- and the swamp monster that quietly floated to the dwarf's side after receiving the master's order.
