Chapter 5: The Battle of the Lizard King
Little Cangyue friend, you can read my book to your heart's content, because the female characters in this book will not exceed one digit, and even fewer will have a relationship with the main character.
Haim stood firmly in place like a statue, his right hand tugging at the string of Aror's bow, and long arrows shot out with this movement, even in the face of a wind blade that could easily kill him, his hand was still extremely steady. As the Wind Blade approached, at least three sharp arrows pierced through the scales of the Lizard King's body and stabbed into its thick skin.
Several transparent magic shields quietly appeared around the elf, blocking the deadly attack for him, and the wind blades that could cut through the steel plates disappeared into thin air after colliding with the shields, and in the moment of crisis, Rhaegar was once again forced to interrupt the magic that had been building up for a long time.
A smug glint flashed in the Lizard King's eyes - its plan had succeeded once again, and in fact, it wasn't just about killing the elves by firing those wind blades, it was its true purpose to lure Rhaegar behind him into action.
The Demon Lizard King suddenly accelerated the momentum of his forward charge, and the howling wind blew around it, and because of its speed, it turned into a vague shadow in the eyes of the people, and in the blink of an eye, the monitor lizard, which weighed more than five thousand kilograms, crossed the distance less than 100 meters between Heim and Rhaegar and appeared in front of the elf.
Before it could tear its opponent to shreds with its own minions, an earth elemental emerged from the ground beneath its feet and stood in its way. The giant, who was nearly six meters tall, took advantage of his height to launch a fierce attack on the Lizard King, slamming his huge fist on the lizard's head before it could react, and then the clay giant hugged the opponent's neck tightly and tried to knock the Lizard King down.
The heavy blow made the Lizard King feel dizzy, and if it hadn't had two heads, it would probably have failed in the face of this sudden attack. Before the Earth Elemental Giant began to use its strength to knock itself down, the Lizard King's unstruck head quickly completed a spell, and the next moment, an earthy yellow missile hit the Earth Elemental's body, and the powerful magic power caused its huge body to decompose in an instant, and its body was forcibly expelled back to the Elemental Realm.
But this time was enough for Rhaegar to complete another spell, and when the Lizard King raised his head again, the big lizard was surprised to find that the elf who was still in front of him just now was actually gone, and only the mage who was staring at him with a cold gaze a few meters away was left in front of him.
However, this change did not unsettle the Lizard King, on the contrary, surprise rose in his heart - it was clear that the mage had used the teleportation technique on his companion, which meant that in a short period of time, he would never be able to use the same spell again, and at such a distance, the mage who had lost this escape weapon was undoubtedly meat on the chopping block.
A low roar came from the Lizard King's mouth, and two slender tongues shot out like arrows, piercing Rhaegar's body before the heavy armor could penetrate the body before the people had time to blink an eye.
The momentary ecstasy almost made the Lizard King forgetful, and among all the opponents, this mage was undoubtedly the most threatening to himself, and the energy fluctuations emanating from his body were enough to prove that this was a powerful spellcaster, and if it weren't for the stupid consideration of his companions, the battle of the monitor lizard king would have been much harder.
As the long tongue returned to the Lizard King's mouth, Rhaegar's body slammed to the ground, and then turned into a statue in front of everyone's attention.
Carson gave Rhaegar the third and final Golem double.
Fear suddenly took over the heart of the Lizard King, and at this moment, the cunning lizard finally realized that it had stepped into a premeditated trap, and the Lord of the Monitor Lizard roared wildly, his huge body quickly retreated, and a magic shield that shimmered with cyan light appeared around his body at the same time.
However, it was too late, and before the Lizard King could move away from where Haim and Rhaegar had been, the ground beneath his feet suddenly turned into a muddy swamp, and the heavy Lizard King's limbs were trapped in the first place. Almost at the same moment, a dozen bolts of lightning fell from the sky in succession, slashing at its shield that had not yet fully stabilized, and in an instant, the latter was transformed into a scattered point of light in the air.
But Rhaeggar's real attack has only just begun, and as the shield is destroyed, more spells are flying in one after another from the restricted Lizard King: Energy Arrows, Burst Missiles, Wind Blades, Fireballs, Frost Missiles, Acid Arrows... Almost all of the spells were no more than the fifth order, but the sheer number and the power infused by an archmage made these low-level spells also have a lethal power that could not be underestimated, and the body of the two-headed lizard king was covered in a matter of seconds, and its tough body was not much stronger than that of a mortal in the face of the power of magic.
It's impossible for even an archmage to cast so many spells in such a short amount of time, but Rhaegar is an exception: the unique connection between the geist and the Primordial allows him to cast spells nearly twice as fast as someone of his level, and more importantly, through a special method in his memory, he can prepare a considerable amount of magic in advance and store it, and then take it out and use it when needed. This method of storing spells in one's own body is undoubtedly more convenient than storing spells, and there is no limit to the level, the only requirement is that all spells must be used up within a certain amount of time, otherwise they will automatically disperse. In fact, while the Lizard King thought that Rhaegar was preparing powerful spells, the geist was preparing as much low-level magic as possible.
There seems to be no end to the stormy magic, and the Lizard King, whose activities are limited by the mire magic, is an excellent target, and the only thing it can do is to hold up the magic shield as much as possible to protect itself, but whether it is a magic shield, a fire shield, or a magic shield, these defensive spells are not effective as soon as they are formed, they need a very short time to stabilize after completion, and before that, these spells are easy to break. This time may be insignificant in normal times, but at this moment, under the continuous and dense attacks of Rhaegarna, the magic shield of the Demon Lizard King could not even buy such time, and one after another shields were bombarded as soon as they appeared, and the backlash when these shields collapsed made the monitor lizard's injuries even worse.
When Rhaegar finally launched all the hundreds of spells that had been stored, the king of the monitor lizard was nothing short of miserable, all the scales on his body had been blown away, and his whole body was covered with injuries left by magic, frostbite, burns, and cuts that made the body of the great lizard almost undamaged.
But this didn't kill the Lizard King, its thick skin and huge body made it far more resistant to damage than other monsters, and, like its own close relatives, the lizard's powerful regenerative ability also appeared on the body of this two-headed demon lizard, even when the magic attack was most violent, its body was still tenaciously repairing itself, and now, when Rhaegar stopped, the Lizard King's injuries were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Kill it. The constant use of so much magic was also a drain on Rhaegar, and he shouted to his companion while issuing a summon into the distance, and then quickly entered meditation.
The rest of the team had already started to act long before Rhaegar could speak, and the first to arrive was Heim, who had been sent by Rhaegar teleportation to a distance of tens of meters, who deftly approached from the back of the Lizard King, and then followed the latter's tail to pick up the back of the monitor lizard whose limbs were still in the mire, and the slender sword mercilessly stabbed into the neck before the two heads were separated.
Severely damaged by the magic could no longer stop any attacks, Haim's sword stabbed deep into the Lizard King's body, and each pull out was bound to bring up a fountain of blood arrows.
But compared to the elves' small arms, Willy's attack apparently dealt more damage, and Nack's powerful throw sent her flying right after Heim onto the Lizard King's back, and the two-handed greatsword slashed at the Lizard King's thick neck like a lumberjack, nearly severing it.
Beneath the Lizard King, Nack was also attacking violently, standing next to one of his opponent's hind legs, striking it with a warhammer, quickly rendering it useless forever.
Such a blow would be too much for any creature to bear, and the damage and severe blood loss left the Lizard King dying, and he roared angrily, his body lying on the ground weakly, and the brilliance of life gradually disappeared from his eyes. But it didn't really die, and it wasn't hurt - as a two-headed lizard, the heart is their true center, and the head, like the limbs, is just an active organ of the body, and as long as the heart is still there, even if it breaks them down into countless pieces, it will eventually regenerate. The Lizard King believes that it has performed well enough to fool these opponents, and when they think they have eliminated themselves and leave, it will have a chance to recover, and when it fully recovers, all those who have ever attacked it will pay a double price.
A tentacle reached out of the door of summoning that appeared out of nothingness, and stabbed the lizard king in a flash of lightning, and until the end of his life, the monitor lizard still had trouble believing that anyone could kill him.
Mel's massive body slowly squeezed out of the Summoning Gate at the same time as the Lizard King was killed, and after leaving the wasteland, the swamp monster, which was clearly unsuitable for populated areas, was sent back to the Central Swamp, only to arrive under the influence of the Loyalty Brand after Rhaegar summoned him.
Compared to before, the appearance of the swamp monster after the fusion of power crystallization has changed significantly, and the original gray skin has become extremely smooth: its body size has increased by at least half compared to before, and the original mud-like body has become extremely smooth, faintly shining with metal, and more importantly, this monster's transformation ability is more powerful than before, and at this moment, it is turning itself into a lion-like beast, guarding its master's side.
