Act Fifty-Nine: Elements of Civilization IV

The power of the dragon of war!

Malocha seemed to notice the change in Brando, an instinct for danger that alerted him. It reasserted its attacking stance, lowered its head and slashed its hooves across the ground, spewing clouds of white mist from its nose, and then its hind hooves kicked suddenly, and its figure shot out like an arrow from a string, suddenly detached from the sight of everyone present, as if it had disappeared out of thin air.

But Brando was an exception, and he stretched out his hands forward—

Bang! The picture seems to freeze, with Malotha hitting Brando's hands headfirst, as if hitting a wall, and stops. There was a loud bang, and the air swelled with it, lifting the corners of Brando's clothes and the long hair on his forehead, sweeping behind him.

Brando slid backwards for a few minutes before he completely unleashed his strength, but at least it was no longer a one-sided suppression - he could fight! He clasped his hands and clenched the other's horns, "You think I can only use a sword?" Brando bared his teeth, wrenched his hands, and with a roar of rage, he threw Marocha to the ground.

Rumble!

The demonic crystal stag, which had been unstoppable before, fell like a meteorite to the snow-covered ground of the forest, and with a scream from the goblin, it raised a handful of snowflakes high, and then dragged a deep ravine from the snowdrift, revealing the gray-black dirt underneath due to the depletion of mana.

"Roar!"

It let out a painful roar, scrambled its hooves up from the ground, twisted its neck in the direction of Brando, swiped its long horns, and three overlapping translucent ripples swept towards Brando over a distance of more than ten meters. Scythe, one of the basic attacks of the Crystal Stag, but the original compressed air blade was strengthened into a triple attack after demonization, this kind of attack is simply the nemesis of the shield knight, only the best knight players can perfectly defuse, but it is simply not worth mentioning for Brando.

He leaped and rolled backwards. Let the triple blades flutter on the snow in turn. Leaving three notches nearly one meter long and half a meter deep. Brando landed beside the sword of the earth stuck in the snow, and with a backhand he grabbed it from the ground again.

One hit missed. Malocha the stag immediately raised her upper body high and lifted her front hooves off the ground.

Shake the ground!

As soon as Brando saw this move, he couldn't help but want to kill. This is one of the must-have tricks for heavy artiodactyl creatures. But the Crystal Stag is definitely not a heavy artiodactyl in Vainde, it is a large one at best, and this thing is not a skill it should have, and now it is clearly added for demonic reasons.

But whether he liked it or not, Malocha paused his hooves heavily. There was a loud bang, and Brando only saw that the map it stepped on instantly collapsed, and then a visible ripple spread out in all directions, then another, and then a third.

Due to the lack of preparation in advance. Brando had to rely on his own reflexes to dodge the shockwave, and he leaped up with his hands in the air in an attempt to approach Malocha from the air. But he had barely left the ground when he saw the crystal stag shake its head in this direction.

The triple qi blade seemed to be in front of him in an instant.

"Hell yes!" Brando knew that this guy was going to play this trick with him. Hurriedly pulled out the sword of the earth and blocked it. Then he was directly hit by the terrifying force and flew out.

He slammed into a fog tree not far away like a meteor. Smash the ice-crystallized tree to pieces.

Then the three shockwaves that shook the ground came first, throwing him into the air three times in a row and throwing him to the ground fiercely. Brando was so depressed that she almost vomited blood. Originally, with his strength and experience, it would be easy to deal with a crystal stag, but he didn't expect it to be a demon.

Demonic creatures have a variety of skills, and they are almost the natural enemy of players like him who rely on experience to eat.

He spat out a few mouthfuls of snow and dirt and got up, but Malocha clearly didn't intend to let go. The stag seemed to have fallen in love with the ranged attack after suffering a loss in melee combat, slashing its horns and shooting three more air blades perpendicular to the ground towards Brando.

Three blades of air ploughed the ground like claws, raising up a cloud of ice and dirt as they advanced, leaving three deep claw marks. Nimesis, who was pressing the fairy girl not far away, couldn't help frowning slightly when she saw this scene, but she glanced down at the little captive in her hand, only to find that the latter had a worried face.

"Looks like you're worried about something?" She asked.

The fairy girl shuddered for a moment, and hurriedly straightened her face: "Cai, Cai, no-"

"So, it doesn't seem that the demonized state of this crystal stag is without a price, it is overdrawing its life, right?" Nimesis thought about it for a moment, and seemed to understand the relationship.

"You...... No, it's not! ”

"You don't need to answer, little one," she said, looking up at Brando, "Brando, drag it on, it won't last long!" ”

"Despicable!" The leprechaun screamed.

But Brando didn't want to delay at all, although he could also see that something was wrong with the other party - the black smoke that swirled around it seemed to be getting thicker and thicker. It suddenly dawned in his heart that the other party was suppressing demonization, and since this is the case, it will be easy to solve.

Seeing the three qi blades advancing rapidly, Brando raised the sword of the earth upward: "Get up for me, the resonance of the earth!" There was a crack, and a row of sharp rocks came out of the ground like fangs, blocking the front of the sickle, and the translucent ripples swept across the forest path, but crashed against the rocks, shattering with the solid rock.

A cloud of smoke and rubble exploded.

The Demonized Crystal Stag looked up at Malocha in confusion as it realized that it had lost track of the other party. Until a loud bang rang out above its head, "Look at the place, little deer! Malocha subconsciously raised her head, but she saw a white light fall from the sky and slash towards the center of its head.

Flash Sword――

"Don't!" The fairy girl cried out miserably.

She couldn't help but close her eyes, afraid to see the scene of blood splattering, but the imaginary scene did not happen. Because a black light curtain suddenly appeared on the door of Malocha's head, Brando's Earth Sword slashed at the black light curtain, and then bounced back. Brando was slightly stunned and stepped back, and then he saw that the demonized crystal stag had only a shallow blood mark on its head.

Chaos Shield, a skill common to most powerful demonic creatures. It comes at the cost of consuming dark magic. Most types of attacks can be neutralized.

In addition to Holy Attack.

"Damn demonized state!" Brando couldn't help but curse in his heart, and then he immediately saw the blood marks on the door of Marocha's head instantly close to the middle, gradually disappearing. Then it turned into a light-colored mark. This is exactly the elemental power that the crystal stag should have, the healing power that comes from the water element.

But after Malocha used this power, the dark color on her body deepened.

Brando saw the scene. Stopped.

"If you continue to fight me, you won't be able to suppress the dark magic in you. You're trying to protect this forest, to protect those stupid goblins, but if you continue like this, you'll become thoughtless monsters—"

He said gently, looking at the other party with some concern, trying to establish communication with the other party in this way.

The demonized Malocha shook her head, but immediately the blood red in her eyes became brighter: "Get out, human!" Get out of here. This is not the place you should be! ”

A rumbling roar swept through the spiritual world of everyone present.

"It's stubborn." Brando frowned and had to raise his sword.

"Let go of me, woo-woo......" Nimesis suddenly saw the fairy girl she held down and began to sob. Tears glistened in her eyes. Soon large tears began to roll down, "Woo. We don't want this anymore, let's move, Lord Malocha, let's go find another magical forest, woowoo......"

Brando was slightly stunned when he heard the fairy girl's cry. He felt like he had grasped the gist of the matter, but it was a little paradoxical, and he stared at the crazy demonized crystal stag and tried one last time:

"Marocha, we're not here to trouble you. Wake up, maybe we can help you-"

But the other party answered him with only one word: "Get out!" ”

"Damn it!" Brando saw that the black flames on Marocha's body were burning again, and he lunged towards him. The Crystal Stag's charge inherits the characteristics of the four-hoofed animal, that is, it is much more powerful than the human charge skill, which is also one of the skills it is good at.

It's just that the better it is, the more familiar Brando becomes.

He flickered sideways, then held his sword in both hands, and slashed at the antlers of the demonized crystal stag with a sword with a round arm. There was a screeching sound of metal intersecting, and Malocha's head and Brando's sword were deflected. The demonized crystal stag immediately slammed his feet, braked suddenly, and turned his head into a sickle in a close-range state.

But Brando had expected it and lay down on his back. He knew that the next blow of the Crystal Stag was a back-kick stab, and he rolled from under the opponent to the other side with a decisive roll, and Malocha did stab with his hind hooves, but it was empty.

"Now, it's my time!"

Once up close, Brando's terrifying swordplay superiority and rich combat experience come into play. Malocha immediately noticed that it seemed to be caught in a large net, and even before it was ready to attack, Brando had already prepared a whole set of counterattack routines for it.

Sliver's invention of the rear side blind spot attack.

KUN's weakness in the back of the neck and shoulder blades under the horns.

Blazing Flame's side-to-side swing tactics.

These tactics tailored for the Crystal Stag have spanned dozens or even hundreds of years of game time to come to this world, and as the first Demonized Crystal Stag to enjoy this set of tactics in full, Malocha finally understood what it meant to open a plug-in by this day.

Finally, with a loud bang, the sword of the earth struck the side of its neck, and although the black light flashed, it was still swept away, and the flesh on its neck rolled up, and blue blood flowed out in a berth.

The blood dripped to the ground, and immediately crystallized blood as beautiful as a sapphire was formed.

The fairy girl's crying stopped abruptly, and she opened her mouth slightly, looking at this scene with a pale face, as if she was about to die.

Malocha's four hooves struggled in vain through the snow, but the continuous battle while suppressing the dark magic had consumed too much of its strength. It chirped angrily, but couldn't stand up.
