Chapter 257: Lightning Frenzy (5,000 Words)
"Ah~~~~~~h
The sage Nia let out a piercing scream, and her whole body glowed with dazzling white light, and in her eyes, mouth, ears, and pores all over her body, there was a piercing white light that penetrated through it. In her body, it seemed that a sun was erupting.
The earth began to shake, and the amplitude of the tremors became stronger and stronger, and the night sky became brighter and brighter, as if it were day.
Rosen struggled to get up from the ground, picked up Veronica, pulled Morbius up from the ground, and yelled at the frightened illusionist Vigo, "Go! Come on! Get out of here! ”
Wei Ge nodded in a daze, stumbling after Rosen.
The four of them staggered into the crowd, and Rosen yelled with all his might: "If you want to live, follow me!" ”
At the same time, he activated the magic power and amplified his voice dozens of times. In order to attract attention, he also shrouded his body in a blinding halo.
In the panicked crowd, a person with a glowing whole body appeared, coupled with the loud voice from before. Under the instinct to follow the strong, people have followed in the footsteps of Rosen.
In the crowd, the steel-armored warrior Fellman quickly squeezed in front of Rosen and asked loudly, "What the hell is going on?" ”
"I don't have time to explain, just follow me!" Lawson yelled.
"And where are we going?"
"Let's go to Seongseo Academy first! There's a defensive fortress there! ”
People ran desperately towards the west of the city.
On the other side, Donassis, the Tree Demon, also saw the white pillars of light that had been obtained, and he also saw a large number of survivors who were fleeing.
He didn't know what was going on, but he felt a strong uneasiness in his heart. The numerous wars he experienced 10,000 years ago gave him a lot of combat experience. Past experience told him that at this time, he must not panic and must deal with it calmly.
He screamed loudly at his puppets, one of the rattans pointing at the fleeing survivors.
Suddenly, more than half of the puppets chased after the survivors.
As for Donassis himself, he took the other half of the puppet and ran towards the white pillar of light with all his might.
At this moment, whether it is life or death, victory or defeat, he has no time to think about it. His only thought was to do everything possible to extinguish the pillar of light and kill the magician who was bathed in it!
"Ah~~~~~h
Nya's screams grew louder and louder, and the air around her body was shaken out with visible ripples. Wherever the sound wave sweeps, houses collapse and broken wood fly. In an instant, a large clearing was cleared around her body.
Donassis was terrified in his heart, and as he got closer to Nya, the impact he felt grew stronger, and by the time he was still 50 meters away, the shock wave was almost beyond his limit.
"How can there be such a terrible force in the world? Could this woman be Niya the Sage? ”
Countless doubts flashed through his mind, but in this chaotic moment, no one could give him an answer, and the only thing he could do now was to fight hard!
"Hiss~~~hiss~~~~"
Donassis let out a shrill hiss at the golems around him.
The golems immediately picked up speed, leapfrogging over Donassis's body and fearlessly lunging towards Nya.
"Bang~Bang~~~Bang~~~~Bang~~~Bang~~~"
The terrifying sound waves crashed outward in waves, and the golems rushed up and were knocked out again. After landing on the ground, he got up and continued to rush, so tirelessly attacking in a loop, and I don't know how many thorns he rushed, and finally, an elite puppet successfully broke through to Niya's side by the cover of his companion's body.
The puppet raised its hands and grabbed it hard at Nya's heart.
"Whew~~~"
At this moment, Nia suddenly stopped screaming, she lowered her head, and glared at the elite puppet beside her.
As soon as she glanced past, a blazing bolt of lightning shot out of her glowing white eyes, following her gaze right on the body of the elite puppet.
"Smack!"
With an explosion, the elite puppet was struck away by lightning, and its whole body was entangled with silver-white lightning, which lasted less than half a second, and its whole body was on fire, and the fire became more and more intense, and when the puppet landed, its body had been burned to charcoal.
One of the elite puppets was 'looked' to death at a glance!
A chill rose in Donassis's heart, and he had the urge to run away, but he knew that he had no way to retreat now, no matter how fast he was, he couldn't be faster than lightning, and if he wanted to live, he had to fight to the death!
In order to prevent his vital body from being struck by lightning, Donassis's body quickly transformed into a huge black rattan ball, with thick rattan as a shield and the vital point hidden in the center of the rattan ball.
After the conversion was completed, more than a dozen black rattan strips immediately burst out of the surface of the rattan ball, flying towards Niya in the distance at high speed.
"Woman, no matter who you are, today is your end!"
"Slaves, rush up and shred her!"
All of a sudden, a large number of black rattans and nearly 500 tree demon puppets rushed towards Niya like a tide.
In the face of the siege, Niya suddenly opened her arms.
'Buzz~~~'
The air sounded with a dense explosion of lightning, and endless fragments of lightning erupted in the air around Niya's body, and Niya's body was also suddenly suspended to a height of nearly 100 meters.
As soon as she rose into the air, she naturally escaped the siege of the Tree Demon Golem, and the only threat was the rattan shot by Donassis.
These black rattans are indescribably fast, there are many of them, and the turns are very flexible, it is impossible to dodge them by dodging, Niya didn't think about dodging, she screamed violently: "Lightning Net!" ”
"Smack! Smack! ”
In an instant, the tiny lightning bolts around her body instantly grew and turned into thumb-thick pillars of lightning, which formed an impermeable spherical power grid that protected her body tightly.
At the same time, the silvery-white pillar of light beside her suddenly became several times thicker, and its brightness increased several times. This bond of power began to go crazy and position Nya to supply power.
In the next moment, the black rattan drawn by Donassis hit the power grid.
"Bang~Bang~Bang~~"
The black rattan collapsed and exploded one after another, and more than a dozen indestructible rattans, in just 2 seconds before and after, were blown into a cloud of white vapor by the terrible lightning, and they couldn't break through Niya's side at all.
"It's so strong!" Donassis felt his soul begin to tremble violently.
Driven by this fear, he shot more and faster rattans at his opponent.
At this moment, he didn't dare to retreat, he didn't dare to stop attacking, and he didn't even have time to attack the white pillar of light beside Niya, because he was afraid of the opponent's counterattack. Once his attack weakens, giving the opponent a chance to breathe, and letting the opponent use a large-scale violent thunderstorm, he will definitely not be able to withstand it, and will definitely be burned to ashes by lightning.
More black rattans emerge from the 'black balls', some attacking Nia directly, while others roll up the golems on the ground and use them as cannonballs to throw into the air.
At the same time, Donassis screamed and issued orders to the free-roaming golems.
"Attack the survivors! Attack the Survivors! ”
At the beginning of the battle, he ordered more than half of the puppets to intercept the fleeing survivors, as long as they stopped these people, then his poison could spread rapidly through the crowd, creating a large number of new golems in a short period of time.
In this way, he has an endless supply of cannon fodder at his disposal.
Nia was in mid-air, and looking at the whole picture, she quickly discovered Donassis's intentions.
She could see clearly that the other group of Tree Demon Golems was less than 50 meters away from the survivors, and if these golems burst into the crowd, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Someone has to stop these puppets.
Who can do that?
The opponent has the Eye of Agmar, and the illusion is no longer effective, so it can only be blocked, and hard blocking requires strong combat power. At this moment, the best candidate is only Lawson, who has a wealth of experience in magical combat.
With a flash of thought, Nia understood the current situation. She suddenly pointed at Lawson in the distance: "Feel the power of the gods!" ”
A hazy white light shot out of her hand, hitting Rosen's body.
In the crowd, Lawson also spotted the attacking Tree Demon Golem, who had come to the rear of the survivors and was ready to fight the puppet to the death.
He is not alone, there are also steel warriors Fellman, Veronica, Morbius, and the illusionist Vigo by his side, each of whom is considered a strong man, but there are too few of them, except for Fellman, the other three are either injured or their strength is limited.
Trying to fight against an army of puppets with a force of nearly 500 is no different from using the mantis arm as a car...... He can only say that he did his best, and how much he could save.
When the white light hit Rosen's body, he felt a hot breath rush straight into his body, and in an instant, the energy pool was filled, but the energy was still flowing into his body.
He felt as if his body was beginning to expand like a balloon, blowing bigger and bigger, and his internal organs were in sharp pain like a knife, and blood was spurting from his mouth, eyes, nose, and pores all over his body. But in addition to the pain, Rosen also felt that he seemed to have endless power, as if he had eaten more than a dozen tons of aphrodisiacs at once!
At that moment, the Dryad golems rushed in front of them.
"Ah~~~~"
Lawson roared violently, and with a movement of his mind, countless energies poured out of his body, and when it reached the air, it turned into a thick pillar of lightning.
"Bang~~~"
The lightning bolt slammed towards the Tree Demon Golem that rushed to the front, and after directly 'pointing' it into a large fireball, it continued to draw at the dozen or so Tree Demon Golems behind it, turning these puppets into smokey fireballs.
This flash of lightning passed, and nearly 20 puppets were swept away at once, and the momentum of the tree demon puppets' charge was suddenly stunned!
"Roar~~~~"
Lawson's confidence was greatly increased, and he rushed to the front alone, practicing a thick lightning chain in his hand, and pumped and hit the tree demon puppet, and wherever the lightning went, the tree demon puppet fell one after another.
Occasionally, some fish slipped through Lawson's defenses.
Veronica pulls out her musket, and Morbius takes out a spare musket, shooting at the Tree Golem in quick succession. The steel-armored warrior Fellman roared in anger, his sword and shield united, chasing the tree demon golem that had slipped through the net and slashing wildly.
However, if you rely on these three people alone, it will not be enough to completely stop the tree demon who has slipped through the net. But they also have a genius illusionist.
Seeing that the Tree Demon Puppet's attack was blocked by Lawson, Wei Ge finally broke free from her fear. Her illusions didn't work much against the Tree Demon Donassis, but it was still very useful against these Tree Demon golems.
The Tree Demon Golem was agile enough to dodge bullets, but as soon as Wei Ge's illusion came out, the advantage of the Tree Demon Golem was gone.
An elite puppet jumped left and right to dodge, and the speed was so fast that it almost gave birth to a phantom, Veronica and Morbius fired five or six shots in a row, but all of them missed, and when he saw that the puppet was about to break through to his eyes, he suddenly stepped on the air and fell out.
On the battlefield, such a blunder is absolutely fatal.
Veronica turned her gun and shot the elite puppet's head.
"Good job, little girl!" She praised from the bottom of her heart.
The charge of more than 500 tree demon puppets was blocked by the joint efforts of five people, and none of them escaped the net.
On the other side, Nia saw that Lawson had taken control of the situation, so she began to focus on dealing with the tree demon Donassis.
Donassis the Tree Demon was already completely insane, and countless black rattans and a large number of Tree Demon golems desperately threw at the lightning network around Nia. He had only one purpose, which was to drain Nya's power and draw her energy.
I have to say that his crazy style of play is quite effective.
Although Nia has the support of the power of the gods and temporarily has terrifying attack power, her body is very fragile, far less than Donassis's devilish physique.
Previously, the reason why she was able to take Veronica's fist was that on the one hand, she was strong, and on the other hand, she also took advantage of Veronica's recovery from serious injuries and her weak body. But Donassis is different, his attacks are extremely sharp, but if she is negligent at all, she may be seized by the opponent and killed with one blow!
As a result, Nia had to deal with Donassis's 'messy punches' with all her might, and she couldn't spare her hands to fight back.
The tide of battle has turned into a war of attrition!
"Bang~~Bang~~Bang~~"
The black rattans shot by the Dryad continued to burst, and the Dryad golems thrown out were also constantly knocked away, and all the attacks were blocked by Niya, but the energy she consumed also skyrocketed.
In order to compensate for the intense energy expenditure, the white pillars of light around Niya continued to thicken and brighten.
There was a hint of worry in Nya's heart.
This bond of the gods is maintained entirely by Max's body, it does not supply energy endlessly, and the speed of energy supply is also limited, once this limit is exceeded, the bond of the gods may collapse at any time.
Donassis was keenly aware of the change in the pillar of light. His rich combat experience tells him that the breakthrough point for him to break the deadlock is most likely this pillar of light.
'No power can be unlimited, either the total amount is limited, or there is a bottleneck in the speed of supply. No matter what the opponent's weaknesses are, as long as I attack with all my might, I have a chance to win! ’
Thinking about it, Donassis's attack became even more frantic.
Completely ignoring the consumption of his own strength, he inspires nearly a thousand black rattans in an instant, and at the same time throws dozens of tree demon golems at Niya.
This kind of attack power is almost the limit of what he can achieve at the moment, and it is the final blow he is desperate for!
In an instant, the black rattan almost submerged all of Niya's body.
"Bang Bang~~~"
The explosion was extremely dense, and the white pillar of light also rapidly expanded tenfold, and the brightness also increased to a terrifying level in an instant.
Defeated by such madness, Nia screamed, drawing power from the Celestial Bond with all her might, and then unleashed a large amount of lightning. The lightning turned into a huge ball of lightning more than 10 meters in diameter, which quickly advanced towards Donassis.
Donassis's frightened soul almost flew away, and at this moment, the only thing he could do was to open the black rattans as much as possible, so that these rattans formed a protective shell outside his body.
As for whether this protective shell will save his life, only God knows.
In the next moment, the lightning ball collided, and the rattan continued to explode, turning into white vapor, and the protective shell quickly thinned.
"Hiss~~~~"
Donassis screamed in despair, desperately trying to turn more rattans into the hole in the protective shell.
He didn't know how long the case would last, the only thing he knew was that he was getting closer and closer to death, as if he had seen death beckoning to him.
"Bang Bang Bang~~"
The black rattan exploded and exploded, and when Donassis turned the last part of his body into black rattan, he suddenly felt that the sky was dark.
Immediately after, the wave of lightning that attacked him was also rapidly weakening.
He was shocked, and then he was overjoyed: "I made the right bet!" The white pillar of light has collapsed! ”
One moment, the white pillar of light illuminated the entire Nilogaard City, and the next moment, the pillar of light suddenly disappeared, and at the same time, the endless power in Rosen's body disappeared.
The bond of the gods has collapsed!
"Boom !!"
Nia fell from the sky, smoke billowing around her body like an angel with folded wings.
Most of the smoke was emitted by burning rattans and tree golems, which obscured Nya's vision. Suddenly, a thumb-thick black rattan shot out of the ground, piercing the smoke and piercing Nyya's body.
"Hahaha~~Hahahaha~~~"
Tree Demon Donassis laughed out loud, he had suffered heavy losses in this battle, his body had shrunk by at least 98% compared to before the battle, and only a mass of rattan less than one and a half meters tall remained.
But so what?
He managed to kill his opponent!
He won!
That's enough.
"Sorceress, you're supposed to be the sage Niya, right? You are strong and a rare opponent. To reward you, I will turn you into my puppet and take you with me forever. ”
Niya looked down at the rattan on her chest, feeling the destructive toxin that was rapidly emanating from the rattan, and she smiled sadly, "I shouldn't have hesitated. In the first place, I should have died with you! ”
"Hehe~~ There is no if in the world." Donassis smirked.
"Although I am defeated, I will never be your puppet!" Nia smiled resolutely.
Dona Siston felt bad, and he immediately pulled out the rattan and desperately retreated, and when he retreated, he once again wrapped the vital point with a small number of rattan.
"Boom~~~"
As soon as he withdrew five or six meters, there was a fierce flash of lightning on Niya's body, and his entire body exploded into a cloud of blood mist, and the scope of the electric light spread out seven or eight meters away.
'Sneer~sneer~~'
Donassis's body was full of white steam, and the small black rattan was torn out by lightning, and when he finally stood firm, his body was less than 1 meter tall.
Looking at the blood mist flying in front of him, Donassis was full of joy: "Crazy! What a madman! Luckily, I was able to retreat quickly! ”
In the end, he still won.
It doesn't matter if the loss of his body is there, there are more than 10,000 survivors, and he can recover to his peak state in less than a day, no, it should be several times stronger than before!
Donassis jerked around and looked at the battle not far away.
There, there were as many as 200 of his minions left, and only 5 of his opponents were left in his way.
"Well~5 ants, the last obstacle on the road to victory."
