Chapter 35: A Difficult Victory
Ever since he heard the screeching strange cry of the blood armor mantis, Shi Xuan had deliberately paid attention.
Sure enough, this hidden bone spur was found in the blood pan mouth opened by the blood armor mantis.
Although the Blood Armor Mantis in front of him seemed to be only larger and more aggressive than ordinary mantises.
But its unique way of behaving reminds Shi Xuan of a species in a movie.
Zerg, this guy's behavior is extremely similar to the Zerg conceived in the movie on Aqua Blue Star.
And now, Shi Xuan can basically determine that the Blood Armor Mantis is not a simple insect-like spirit animal, this kind of guy is an even more terrifying hybrid species.
The powerful physical talent of the spirit beast, coupled with the Zerg's fearless character, the blood armor mantis fused with the two is a killing machine, once this kind of guy is on a certain number, even the strong man standing at the top of the world will have a numb scalp.
The Blood Mantis pulled out its arm knife stuck in the trunk of the brown cypress tree, but the arm knife did not completely leave the trunk, and slashed at the gap in the trunk again.
It's not that the Blood Armor Mantis doesn't want to avoid the tree trunk, but the arm knife is too long, if he deliberately avoids the tree trunk, this amount of time is enough time for Shi Xuan to kill himself countless times.
And cutting down along the original trajectory, leaving less than a third of the trunk can not stop his arm knife at all, which is obviously more efficient and puts more pressure on the enemy.
Shi Xuan flipped his wrist and turned the ink bamboo blade that slashed the Blood Armor Mantis Arm Knife downward, and then submerged obliquely into the Blood Armor Mantis's chest.
Puff~ The long knife broke through the shell of the blood armor mantis, this guy is different from crayfish, after removing the outer carapace, it is not tender shrimp meat, but bone armor piece after piece.
The speed of Mo Zhu's diagonal slash became slower and slower, and he was finally stuck by a slightly protruding bone armor on his chest, Shi Xuan's eyes sank slightly, this was something he had never thought of before, but the battle was like this, full of uncertainty, and no one could be sure that he would be able to walk off the battlefield alive.
If this knife is cut on a person, even if it can't kill with one blow, it will be almost the same.
After all, no matter how strong a human being is, he will definitely not live long if he slashes obliquely in the chest.
But the Blood Armor Mantis is obviously an outlier among the outliers, and this guy has subverted Shi Xuan's cognition more than the first time.
Shi Xuan was not too surprised by this scene, his center of gravity sank, and he kicked it straight, and kicked the nearly two-meter-high blood armor mantis in front of him with a bang, and at the same time pulled out the long knife of the ink bamboo.
Brush~~ Emerald green slime splashed everywhere, and pungent white smoke suddenly came out when it fell to the ground.
Shi Xuan leaned back while kicking straight, the blood-red tip of the knife swept in front of him, less than ten centimeters away from his nose, and Shi Xuan could even feel the faint airflow brought by the blade.
The blood-armored mantis slammed into the trunk of the brown cypress tree, and emerald green slime flowed from the broken wound on the shoulder, corroding the brown trunk, and it looked particularly disgusting, as if it had been gnawed by some kind of evil beast.
Shi Xuan's wrist shook vigorously, and the thick slime stained on the ink bamboo long knife was shaken off, dripping on the ground with a snorting sound, and a pungent white smoke came out.
The mucus in the body of the Blood Armor Mantis was obviously strongly corrosive, although Shi Xuan was not worried that the ink bamboo that survived this thunder tribulation would be damaged, but out of love for the knife, Shi Xuan still chose to shake off this mucus.
After all, no matter how much the merchant touted that his mobile phone was waterproof, normal people would not try it, Shi Xuan didn't distrust Bubu, he was really caught out of the psychological shadow.
The white mist evaporates along the pores, and the blood flow accelerates under strenuous exercise, the body temperature rises, and the water evaporates.
This battle was much more difficult than that of the Wind Tiger, not that the Blood Armor Mantis was stronger than the Wind Tiger, but that the way it fought restrained Shi Xuan.
This is the opponent that the strong sword is most reluctant to face, and this kind of guy who uses weapons as a spinning top is simply flawless.
Even if you want to exchange injuries for injuries, it is extremely difficult, because when you slash the enemy, the enemy will already slash you twice.
Moreover, Shi Xuan's knife may not be able to kill the Blood Armor Mantis, but the Blood Armor Mantis's knife can definitely send Shi Xuan to reincarnate.
The strength of the huge spirit beast is certainly strong, but the agility of this spirit beast is generally not high, and this kind of big guy is equivalent to a live target against Shi Xuan.
With a flash of figure, Shi Xuan went straight to the Blood Armor Mantis, just now the Blood Armor Mantis danced the double knife into a spinning top, and Shi Xuan couldn't get close.
Now there is only one arm left of the Blood Armor Mantis, although it is still extremely threatening, but compared to when the two knives are in hand, the strength is still more than sixty percent.
The water dog did not beat it, and when the vicious dog came ashore, it was uncomfortable.
The small eyes of the Blood Armor Mantis that were not in harmony with the body shape widened hard, staring at Shi Xuan's moving pace, the thin wings behind him trembled at an extremely high frequency, and the two finger-long tentacles on the top of his head beat rhythmically with the fluttering of the thin wings.
No matter how fast Shi Xuan was, the Blood Armor Mantis could always find Shi Xuan's location as soon as possible, and raised its arm knife in advance to prepare for the attack, as if it could advance the path of Shi Xuan's attack in advance.
Shi Xuan frowned, he had been chasing and slashing Shi Xuan by the Blood Armor Mantis before, and it was already very difficult to concentrate on dodging the Blood Armor Mantis's top-like attack, and he didn't have the strength to observe too much, this should be similar to some kind of sound wave induction, no wonder the eyes were so small.
Case......
Shi Xuan took a deep breath and calmed his breath, standing quietly five meters away in front of the Blood Armor Mantis, this position is just the right distance, even if the Blood Armor Mantis suddenly erupts, Shi Xuan is also confident to deal with the Blood Armor Mantis with only one arm left, if the Blood Armor Mantis chooses to escape, this distance is enough for Shi Xuan to kill it with one blow.
Shi Xuan didn't think that the Blood Armor Mantis would choose to escape, this Zerg-like creature was not afraid of death at all, and it was a race that would never choose to run away even if it tried its last drop of blood.
And the blood armor mantis wanted to escape, and it could escape when it was kicked away just now, but it raised its arm knife, and this guy was not willing to let go of the revenge of the broken arm like this.
Besides, it didn't think that Shi Xuan could be strong, and the failure was just because of his own carelessness, so the brain was a good thing, but it was a pity that these spirit beasts full of muscles did not have this kind of awareness.
Bang~~
After Shi Xuan quieted down, in addition to the sound of the hot wind blowing through the leaves and the roar of beasts in the distance, all that remained was the piercing and corrosive sound of the thick liquid from the wound of the Blood Armor Mantis dripping to the ground.
Shi Xuan kicked a fist-sized stone in front of him away, and went straight to the door of the Blood Armor Mantis, and then quickly approached with a knife.
Chirping~~
Sensing Shi Xuan's movements, the Blood Armor Mantis opened its blood plate and let out a piercing roar, and the blood-red arm knife in his hand waved, easily slashing the fist-sized stone in two.
The light in Shi Xuan's eyes flashed, and his speed increased again, and the long knife was raised and slashed diagonally at the neck of the blood armor mantis.
Knife edge collision knife edge?
It doesn't exist, it's not a game, it's not a performance, whether it's Shi Xuan or the Blood Armor Mantis, as long as they have the opportunity, they will slash the other party under their feet with one sword, and they will definitely not waste any more strength, let alone show the slightest mercy.
Pale black spiritual power surged out, and the Mozhu long knife left a pale black knife mark in the air.
The blood armor mantis thin wings vibrated faster and faster, obviously knowing that they were in danger, and in the case that the arm knife had no time to retract, the blood armor mantis did not dare to bet that the ink bamboo long knife could not break its own carapace.
After all, just now Shi Xuan had already told the Blood Armor Mantis with practical actions that the Mozhu long knife was not a shoddy craft, but a sharp blade that killed people and saw blood.
The sound waves sent out kept sending back information, and the blade got closer and closer to the neck, and the slender neck suddenly shrank back, trying to dodge Shi Xuan's long knife with the bone shrinking skill.
Puff......
The long knife flashed, bringing up two finger-long tentacles, the blood armor mantis let out a sharp chirping sound, the antennae are its most vulnerable and sensitive places, and the tentacles are cut off much more than the mantis arm.
The Blood Armor Mantis trembled violently all over, as if it was experiencing unbearable severe pain.
Shi Xuan was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect the Blood Armor Mantis to have such a big reaction, and he originally expected that the Blood Armor Mantis's perception could only be abolished at most, but now, ......
The opportunity was fleeting, Shi Xuan glanced at the arm knife that the Blood Armor Mantis had raised, gritted his teeth, and fought ......
The Mozhu long knife slammed in the air, Shi Xuan's wrist flipped over, and the blade of the long knife turned and went straight to the two small eyes of the Blood Armor Mantis.
The piercing scream of the Blood Armor Mantis sounded again, and the Blood Red Arm Knife was like a battle axe that opened the sky, slashing diagonally towards the Blood Armor Mantis.
Shi Xuan broke the small eyes of the blood armor mantis with a knife, and gave a piece of head armor by the way.
After achieving the goal, he will not stay, quickly retract the Mozhu long knife, hold the handle with one hand, and hold the back of the knife with the other, with the blade facing forward.
Bite~~
The blood-red blade slammed against the edge of the long black bamboo blade, making a crisp metal crashing sound.
Hum......
A red fragment turned into a streamer, and it sank into Shi Xuan's abdomen with lightning speed, and the bright red instantly dyed the clothes red, and the wound in the abdomen began to numb after a moment of stinging, which was obviously the neurotoxin on the arm blade of the blood armor mantis at work.
Although the injury in the abdomen could not be delayed, the crisis in front of him was not only the wound in the abdomen, the blood armor mantis arm blade slashed at the ink bamboo blade fiercely, even if Shi Xuan was already ready to be repulsed, and he didn't even mind crashing into the brown cypress tree behind him, but Shi Xuan never thought that the blood armor mantis with a broken arm actually had this kind of power.
The back of the knife was embedded in the palm of his hand, and the blood slid down his arm, Shi Xuan was slashed back more than ten steps by a knife, and finally hit a palm cypress tree, spurting out a large mouthful of blood with a pop.
Shi Xuan's breathing was heavy, like a broken bellows, and his internal organs seemed to be roasted in a furnace, scorching and stinging.
Although the injury was not light, Shi Xuan looked at the blood armor mantis in front of him that had lost its vision and sound wave induction, the corners of his mouth turned up, this transaction was definitely profitable, and now the blood armor mantis that wields a knife like a blind fly is obviously no longer threatening, if you don't fight, I don't know how long it will take.
The thin wings behind the blood armor mantis were fully opened, the hideous blood disc let out a piercing chirping sound, and the only remaining arm knife in his hand waved indiscriminately, and his strong legs kept kicking the ground, sometimes exposing his back to Shi Xuan, obviously losing his senses.
Call~~
Shi Xuan took the empty reagent bottle back to the temple and drank half a bottle of primary-level recovery potion, Shi Xuan's internal organs were already much better, at least he could feel the hot pain without sitting.
Shi Xuan, who was watching the play on the branch, put away the Coke popcorn and finished it, but he didn't expect that the blood armor mantis couldn't put too much pressure on Shi Xuan.
"Ah~~"
Bubu looked up at the north and sighed softly.
"Why don't you find a stronger one next time?"
