CHAPTER XXIII

As it turned out, his actions were not superfluous, and just as Willy was slashing down the basilisk in front of her and preparing to hunt down the last two remaining opponents, Rhaegar suddenly unleashed her magic, and an invisible giant hand unexpectedly grabbed Willy, bringing her back to Rhaegar before she could struggle, and almost at the same time, a cloud of red smoke fell from the sky, enveloping the place where the female warrior had stood.

The red mist slowly dissipated, and a huge basilisk appeared in front of the two, it stood upright at least twice as tall as the other companions, the humanoid upper body of ** was covered with thick scales, the thick snake tail kept shaking on the ground, and every time it splashed muddy water on the ground, on its snake-like head, two yellow eyes flashed with a terrifying light.

The two basilisks that had just escaped were grabbed by their two claws, and as punishment for escaping, their skulls had been crushed, and their lifeless bodies twisted at a strange angle, shaking slightly in the hands of the giant basilisk.

"That's the Basilisk King," Rhaegar whispered to Willy, "it's a hundred times scarier than a normal basilisk." ”

"You can deal with it, can you?" Willy's words were not answered, as the Basilisk King had already attacked.

The corpse of the slain basilisk flew into the air towards the two of them, and before Willy could realize the hidden danger, Rhaegar's magic had already been activated, and under the flames of magic, the two corpses that would explode to spread poison when they reached the vicinity of the target were reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye.

The Basilisk King hissed in rage, red smoke of toxins that could corrode steel erupted from its mouth like arrows, and at the same time, with the catapult of the serpent's tail, its massive body soared into the air, leaping past the corpses of his men that were lying on the ground between the two rivals, and lunged at his own killer.

The invisible magical barrier resisted the erosion of the black mist, and also bought time for Rhaegar, when the king of the basilisk broke through the barrier with brute force, the next spell of the geist was ready, and the next moment, a lightning bolt snaked through the sky and landed on the path of the other party.

A strong electric current pierced through the thick scales of the Basilisk King's body, and the Great Basilisk's roar immediately turned into a wail, and its heavy body fell from the sky like a stone and fell into the mud.

But it didn't hurt it severely, and the Basilisk King's resistance to magic was far beyond Rhaeggar's imagination, and the basilisk leapt from the mud in a rage, and in the air, its body turned into a cloud of blood-red smoke, covering Rhaegar and Willy from above like a giant fishing net.

Rhaegar was somewhat surprised by his opponent's performance, although the king of the basilisk had invulnerable scales and the strength to tear through a bull, and was able to breathe terrible poisonous mist, this monster's defense against magic was not very high, and now, under the lightning magic that a seventh-order mage was close to exerting with all his might, the king of the basilisk in front of him had only suffered some minor injuries, which had subverted his original knowledge.

The Basilisk King, who had transformed into a state of smoke, had a stronger defense, and the two spells that Rhaegar had sent out only shot through it without causing any damage to the other party, and at this time, the red smoke had already shrouded the magic shield that protected him and Willy.

Feeling that the shield was rapidly weakening under the corrosion of the smoke, Rhaegar was mobilizing energy from his body to replenish the loss of the magic shield, while quickly thinking about countermeasures, beside him, Willy looked at the red smoke that was only one meter away from him with some unease, this kind of unprecedented thing made this strong warrior feel a little nervous.

Rhaegar tried to launch two more spells, including a splitting missile and a string of flame meteors, and in the face of the insubstantial smoke, these powerful eighth-order spells also had no effect, but Rhaegar was not discouraged, and a new idea appeared in his mind.

At the sound of a rapid incantation, a glowing cyan air mass slowly appeared on the periphery of the magic shield, it was a wind elemental from the elemental realm. At Rhaeggar's orders, the elemental creature turned itself into a thick whirlwind as it appeared, sweeping through everything within tens of square meters centered on the shield with impunity.

The king of the basilisk in a state of smoke is not afraid of the attack of weapons, the scorching of flames, and the lightning that falls from the sky, but in the face of this whirlwind, which does almost no harm except for making it difficult to stand and walk, its greatest reliance has become its most fatal weakness: those soft and almost weightless smoke are completely unable to resist the ravages of the whirlwind, first torn into countless thin strips by the strong wind, then spun and rose into the sky under the suction of the center of the whirlwind, and finally, at the end of the whirlwind, the powerful centrifugal force threw all the smoke in all directions。

With a terrible roar, the scattered smoke finally recondensed nearly a hundred meters away from the whirlwind, turning back into the king of the embodied basilisk, but its size was already nearly one-fifth smaller than when it first appeared, and it was obvious that the whirlwind had caused great damage to this monster.

The Basilisk King's yellow eyes were fixed on Rhaegar at the center of the whirlwind, his eyes full of anger and hatred, but instead of pounced on his opponent again, instead, after a vicious scream, the monster turned and threw itself into the swamp mud.

"We must find it," Rhaegar did not intend to let the Basilisk King go, he repatriated the Wind Elemental, and then hurriedly said to Willy, "The Basilisk is a very vengeful creature, and unless we can destroy them all, these monsters will bite us like leeches that nail their prey on the rest of their journey." "A ball of light appeared in the air," I had cast a tracking spell on it," he continued, "and with this ball of light, we could find the basilisk's lair." The light that belonged to the predator flashed in his eyes: "Now, let's go and kill them all." ”

Ackwind was entrenched on his throne, his snake-like lower body curled, a crystal the size of a human head suspended above it, and a soft light poured down from the crystal and fell on its body, calming its damage.

The Basilisk King is in a bad mood right now.

Luck has been with Ackwind ever since he got the crystal on top of his head during a hunt two hundred years ago: the energy emitted by the crystal gave him far more wisdom than his kind, and changed its constitution, transforming it from an ordinary basilisk to the king of basilisk in a few decades, the crystal's light could heal almost any injury, with the crystal, he was no longer afraid of injury, and thus behaved braver than everyone else, and the crystal made it live a long life, at two hundred and forty years old, it had already lived four times the number of years of its kind, and if nothing else, it would have lived even longer... After defeating the last opponent, another basilisk king, who became the king of all the basilisks in the swamp, a deep-seated notion was formed in Akwynd's mind that as long as the crystal was present, it was invincible, could never fail, and would never die.

However, today's encounter has shaken this view: the human in the ridiculous robe has displayed a strength that Akwind has never seen before, and even after using the unique abilities bestowed by the crystal, it still has no resistance in front of the other party, and if it were not for the unique environment of the swamp, it would probably even die at the hands of the other party. This made Akwind feel a little terrified in both humiliation and anger, as the overlord of this swamp, as long as he was careful not to provoke those terrible beings, he could do whatever he wanted here, and the long life allowed him to enjoy everything he had, it liked it, and as long as it could keep its current life, it was not willing to take any risks.

"Just let that damn human go," Akwind thought to himself, feeling the warm current of crystal light coming in, "He's just passing through here, he won't be here for long." "It made up its mind, and once it had healed its wounds, it told all its subordinates not to provoke the human and his companions.

The two basilisks hurriedly broke in at this moment, "Great Your Majesty..."Before one of the basilisks could finish speaking, the poisonous mist spit out by the king of the basilisk in anger had already enveloped them, and in an instant, the two reckless fellows turned into two white bones.

"Hano!" Akwind shouted the name of his most trusted subordinate in the language of the basilisk, a basilisk that was supposed to be outside as instructed, but allowed others to trespass, and what was even more unforgivable was that its actions were likely to expose the secret of the Basilisk King's possession of the crystal, and as such, it must be punished with the severest punishment.

A basilisk corpse flew in through the door and slammed down in front of Arkwynd, as if in response to its call.

The Basilisk King's heart contracted violently, a deep fear gripped its heart, and at this moment, it once again felt the breath of the terrible human who had almost killed itself, and with it came an invisible but tremendous pressure, under which it was like a lamb in front of a dragon, unable to produce any other thoughts than fear.

Arkwind swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, slowly raised his head, and shifted his gaze from the corpse of Hano, who was lying under the throne, to the door.

Then it saw Rhaegar strolling in.

"No!" the great basilisk screamed, all its courage vanishing in an instant, its massive body trembling and desperately moving backwards to get away from its approaching opponent.
