Chapter 982: Anti-encirclement and suppression
Tibbs is in charge of repelling the carnivodon's attacks, and Jinx is in charge of the firepower - Lori and Lori form a simple team.
At the same time, Jax also took the initiative to help Graves, while Silas and Xena carried out a tree-growing defense, a thick tree-growth bulge, covering himself and Lux, and then with the help of Lux's strong light, Quinn in mid-air used crossbow arrows to attack.
Although there is still a long way to go from the kind of subtle one-plus-one great-two-way that Rhodes expected, at least they have passed the initial period of confusion, and they didn't even use Jax's help and reminders.
Well, from this direction, the child is teachable.
……………………
With a match – even the simplest – the combat becomes simpler.
Yes, the carnivodons are agile, powerful, and have the ability to bend light, but in this battle, they lack the all-important ranged attack ability.
A simple lasso and hook didn't do enough long-range fire interference, and by the time the team reacted, the carnivorous beasts were doomed.
Xena and Silas constantly changed the landscape of the trees, and the flesh-toothed beasts were slowed down by trees that swayed from side to side with thorns and vines - they weren't monkeys after all, and their balance was not enough to match their jumping abilities in the high treetops.
As for the elusive raid ability of the Flesh-Toothed Beast, it was completely destroyed by Lux - under the strong light, the stealth of the Flesh-Toothed Beast was more like covering its ears and stealing the bell.
That's right, their figures are hidden in the shadows, but in the battlefield as bright as day, who can't see the rapidly approaching shadows?!
The distortion of the light has changed from stealth to blur, and now the only point is to hide the vital point of the flesh-toothed beast - Quinn's arrows shoot a lot and hit a lot of targets, but because the flesh-toothed beasts are all shadows, although Quinn's archery skills are good, you can't find the key point of the shadows......
When the second charge was delayed and repulsed, the flesh-toothed beasts had lost more than a quarter of their numbers, and seeing that things were not going well, these guys began to change their fighting methods, and instead of dividing the battlefield, they mobilized all their men to attack in the direction of Anne and Jinx.
Demacia's small group has a large number of people, as well as Xena and Silas, who control plants, and it is the time when the flash is the brightest, and the attack is the most difficult.
The carnidons on Jax and Graves' side instinctively sensed Jax's annoyance, so after a silent exchange, the remaining sixteen carnivorons split into two parts, ten to capture Annie and Jinx, and the remaining six to try to stop the others' support.
Don't forget, although the flesh-toothed beast is called "beast", it is actually an official Vastaya!
……………………
Facing the ten shadows that were coming at her, Anne pursed her mouth angrily.
"Teacher badass, don't let Annie use spells!"
These big guys do look scary, but to Anne, they're little meows at best......
Even without the use of special runes, Anne could have a fireball and get them all to the ground.
But Rhodes stipulates that she can't use anything other than Tibbs, and even threatens her with sweets and snacks that she can't set the trees on fire......
It's too much!
"Bluefur - do you have any more destructive ammo?" Glancing at the flesh-toothed beast that had been smashed into the shadow by Jinx's explosive fruit, and wanted to shake its head before retreating into the shadows again, Anne spoke up dissatisfied, "But on his body, Tibbs can't stand up to so many big guys. ”
As she spoke, Anne added by glancing at the notch on the trunk that had been scratched by the flesh-toothed beast.
"If Tibbs is caught, I'm not done with you."
"Don't worry, little pink~" Jinx's tone was still a little crazy, but Anne sensed her helplessness, "Bastard Rod confiscated my fishbone assault rifle - do you know how spicy chicken this thing is right now?" ”
"Aren't there still exploding saplings?"
"That thing's delaying too long." Jinx shook her head, "Unless there's something special to do, even if I hit the target, it's useless." ”
"How long is the delay?"
"This is the worst part, the explosion delay of each sapling is different, I now feel that Rod is deliberately disgusting me!"
“…… I don't care. Anne commanded Tibbs to slap one of the flesh-toothed beasts out of the way, "You have to give me a way to be more destructive, it's not my style to get beaten." ”
"It's not mine, either." Jinx pulled the trigger again, "The only way to do this is to turn these saplings into cluster bombs - but then we don't have enough of the means to motivate them, and the little ones won't react unless the big dogs step on them." ”
"Step on it?" Anne was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized, "Sure enough, the teacher has been misleading you before, he said that those saplings are howitzers, right?" ”
"That's right......"
"I dare say he wants you to use it as a landmine."
"Landmines?" Jinx blinked, then excitedly picked up the bumper gun, and when she came to Annie's side, she kissed the little pink fur fiercely, "Hahaha, that bastard really has something to say - you wait, I'll give these big dogs a good look!" ”
"Hurry up!" Anne wiped her face in disgust, "Tiebs said he was about to take it anymore!" ”
The carnivorous beasts are still on their way, and Tibbs is on the verge of spiraling out of control—and while the others are willing to help, it is only a few arrows from Quinn that actually have an effect.
In this case, if Jinx can't come up with enough lethal means, I'm afraid Anne will have to go against Rod's request...... That meant that she would have to spend the rest of her company with tasteless pudding (the magic pudding made by Rhodes, who had lost the Saffron Flame Rune, was no longer spicy, not only was it not spicy, but it didn't even taste like anything else).
Fortunately, Jinx didn't make trouble at this time.
Just when Anne was about to be unable to contain Tibbs's power, Jinx finally prepared the "cluster explosives".
The cultivated exploding saplings were tied together by Jinx, and they screamed loudly, as if they could explode at any moment.
Unfazed by the pile of explosives, Jinx casually plucked a carnivorous trap from the treetops, threw the pile of explosives into the trap net, and then tossed it to Tibbs.
"Hey, Big Bear borrowed!"
Under Annie's control, Tibbs took the net and slammed it into the flesh-toothed beast that was charging forward—and then, just as the net was out of his hands, Jinx pulled the trigger.
The explosive fruit fired from the bumper gun accurately hit an exploding sapling in its net pocket, gagging it in the mouth.
The screaming sapling swallowed the fruit in one gulp, and then its body swelled rapidly.
"Bang-"
