Chapter 1042: Trap
A shrill chirp rang out from the forest, the roar of the Empress of Fear. A large number of forest birds were startled by this call, and the strange cry circled over the woods for a while, and flew away into the distance. In the woodland, the Empress of Fear was bent on the ground and wanted to get back on her feet. The ropes were torn inch by inch with great force, but fortunately the thick ropes were mixed with wires, and they were never broken by the empress. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the inch-fire shooters who were lying in ambush on various commanding heights began to gather fire, and the raging rifles fired wildly from different directions, and the queen's insect shell continued to shatter under a burst of saturated shots, splashing yellow-green insect fluid.
Such an offensive was not fatal to the Empress, but it made its anger even more surging and churning. A row of small holes suddenly opened on both sides of its body, and there were hundreds of dense holes. Nearly a hundred green insect liquid sprayed out from the small hole, and with the queen's crazy swing, the insect liquid splashed in all directions, like a burst of green rain. These green insect fluids and its green webs are generally strongly acidic, and the leaves on the ground instantly turn black and corroded, and the ground is even more eroded into potholes and bubbles.
The green liquor falling on the empress had no effect on its own shell. But the thick rope that binds it will suffer. Even the wires mixed in the ropes quickly melt under these green liquors. Seeing this, Alan gestured continuously. The Inch Fire Shooter immediately changed his attack mode, and the fire flashed in the woods, and three waves of flame missiles bombarded the Empress in a row. Immediately, several waves of fire exploded, and the waves of fire overlapped, converging into a thick pillar of crimson fire and rushing into the sky.
In the impact of the explosion, the ropes on the empress's body finally broke one by one, but it was also saturated by the flaming missiles, and the insect shells on its body burned red. Some of the weak parts of the insect shells exploded with heat, and the Empress screamed in pain. The forest turned into a sea of fire, and the empress's body suddenly crashed out of the flames, and the fire was so thick that it could not see it for a while, and at this time the dull sound of a heavy object breaking through the air sounded in the forest.
Then a tree trunk swung out of the forest and slammed into the Empress's chest. The Empress of Fear slammed her body and shook, but before she could stand firmly, the trunks of the trees swung one after another, constantly smashing on its body, and the dull sound of impact rose and fell, and the Empress slid back again and again. The last trunk slammed into its head, and it screamed, and its mountain-like body tumbled to the ground.
Alan held up the Red King and pointed forward. The warriors of the Mountain King, who were lying in ambush around them, roared and rushed out, and they reached the empress with a single charge. A warrior leaped into the air and slammed his hammer into one of the Empress's arthropods. The arthropod was unusually stiff, but it also knocked the warrior slightly dented. The rest of the Mountain King warriors stabbed upward, smashing the empress's arthropod with their war hammers. No matter how hard the empress's arthropods were, they couldn't withstand such violent beatings, and the shells immediately began to burst.
The Empress screamed angrily, her arthrops scribbled, and the warrior of the Mountain King shielded himself with his shield. But the arthropod was swept away, and still flew out with a shield. Alan shouted "retreat", and he dragged his knife and hurried. The warrior of the Mountain King obeyed the order, retreating like a tide, and did not forget to pull up his comrades who swept the empress to the ground. As soon as he retreated and advanced, Alan reached the Empress's side. The Empress of Fear had already risen again, and the body of the Red King's sword lit up, and the tip of the knife erupted with black and red flames. Eren slashed horizontally, and the Red King dragged the burst flame and pulled out a cloud of fire that swept across a joint limb on the empress's left side.
The part swept by the fire cloud was silently annihilated, and Eren dragged his knife and spun around, sweeping off the second arthropod, and then scurried back. He had just retreated when the Empress threw her arm down. The bone blade on his arm stabbed into the ground, but it stabbed into the air. The empress broke two arthropods, and her body naturally lost its balance and involuntarily fell to the left side. It roared and grabbed a nearby giant tree with its arms to prop it up.
Alan squinted his eyes, and was about to take the opportunity to expand the results of the battle. But I saw that the empress's whole body vibrate, and bubbles continued to bubble up from the two severed limbs and many wounds on her body. Beneath those bubbles, flesh tissue is growing rapidly. The two severed limbs splashed with fluffy green insect fluid, but new insect limbs grew. The color of the newly grown insect limbs is lighter, which is significantly different from the original body color of the empress.
"Regeneration?" Eren was dumbfounded, and the Empress's injuries healed almost instantly. The wounds inflicted by the previous use of traps and ambushes had been smoothed out in an instant, and if it weren't for the obvious downward sensation of the empress's breath, Eren would almost have spurted out a mouthful of old blood. In Arkham's information, he didn't mention that the Empress had the ability to regenerate. I don't know if the general didn't know that the empress had such a powerful ability, or if he deliberately missed it.
Now was not a good time to delve into the matter, and when the Empress recovered, she raised her head and screamed. A wave of sound whistle spread through the forest, and in an instant, it spread for thousands of kilometers. Then there was a noticeable tremor on the ground, and Allen suddenly felt bad and shouted, "Alert! ”
In the woods near Lake Ze, the ground covered with rotting leaves began to rise at this time, and the forest floor had hundreds of more mounds. At this time, a dirt bag not far from the empress cracked, and a worm man crawled out of it. The insect man looked a little confused, and the two compound eyes turned for a while, and his eyes fell on Allen. The wormman opened his mouth wide and screamed, and immediately rushed over.
As soon as the Red King swept away, the worm was physically separated. But Eren was not happy at all, and in his perception, a large number of bugmen were closing in on them. In addition to the insect people, the beetle snakes that inhabited the ancient trees, the stinger insects that also burrowed out of the ground, and several other creatures that could not be named appeared one by one. Their numbers are not as exaggerated as those of the Worms, but they are quite numerous. Coupled with the Empress of Dread in front of him, Eren now doesn't know who is the prey to fall into the trap.
"Break the ropes off those trunks!" Alan shouted.
The fire shooters in the trees all raised their guns and shot the ropes that had been used to strike the Empress's giant tree. The giant tree fell, smashed on the insect man, crushed a large area, and at the same time became a natural obstacle. Eren also ordered all the warriors to rely on these obstacles to build a defensive line, so that the Empress's army could not enter the battle circle. Among the dragon knights, except for Nelly, the other four people also scattered into the defense line as support points. But even so, Alan didn't know how long this line of defense would be able to resist.
He looked at the empress and said in a deep voice, "Only kill it first!" ”
It seemed that hearing Alan's words, the Empress of Fear's two compound eyes lit up. It suddenly leaped backwards nimbly, and landed lightly to the ground, causing only a small shock. The light in the queen's compound eyes became more and more vigorous, and even the intricate patterns on its body lit up with blue light, and from a distance, the empress seemed to be wrapped in a layer of turquoise flames. An invisible and huge sense of oppression enveloped the entire woodland, and if you looked closely, the foot soldiers and the inch fire shooters were a point or two slower, and only the warriors of the Mountain King could move as usual. This is the influence of the empress's coercion, and Eren reverses the Red King, and the tip of the knife is slammed.
When the Red King hit the ground, a circle of vermilion flame streaks spread. In an instant, the engraved lines on Allen's body lit up, and the light that was still bright gradually dimmed, and a layer of fire rose from the ground and rushed to the sky. Sparks and ashes began to fall above Eren's head, and the flame-like qi around him poured towards the Empress, and a dark electric snake suddenly burst out from the sky above the forest, which was the vision of the collision of Allen's Heavenly Fire Source Power and the Power of the Dread Empress.
Within the scope of Allen's might, the space was extremely hot, and beads of sweat appeared on the faces of the human warriors, but they dispelled the cold qi emitted by the empress. Even the insect people were affected, and many of them spontaneously ignited without fire, and they looked like torches burning in the insect army.
"Nelly, Lola, hold it!" Alan shouted, he stood still, his qi rising again, and a pillar of fire suddenly soared into the sky behind him.
Lola and the others knew that Eren was ready to kill the Empress of Dread with one blow, and they immediately mobilized all their source power to sweep towards the Empress from the left and right. Nelly's movements were light, and the blue tide condensed into two graceful swords between her hands. The Dragon Knight jumped up and down on the Empress, and Nelly's body spun, and her twin swords danced in a complex trajectory as if she were dancing, leaving large scars on her body as she passed over her body.
The Empress of Dread erupted with fire in her hands, wrapping around the bone blade at her wrist and slashing down at Nelly's sword dance light. The bone blade fell, and Nelly's twin swords instantly didn't know how many times they had fought with it. The blue fire on the bone blade was divided, provoked, and annihilated. A series of clanging sounds converged into a loud bang, and the blue fire between the queen's blades was completely extinguished, and a single blow was useless.
If Nelly's sword dance is both aesthetic and practical, Lola's attack is the opposite. Every slash of the giant sword in her hand was majestic, simple and brutal. Every time the empress's bone blade and Lola's giant sword collided, the two beings with a huge disparity in size were shaken by the empress as big as a hill every time, and her body kept moving.
The empress is attacked left and right, and it is difficult to take care of it. The terrifying mouthparts on the man's face opened again, and the long tongue popped out with a terrifying roar. This sound whistle caused a lot of interference to Lola and the two, and the sound waves interfered with the balance of the two, and the two women's attacks were immediately suffocated. The shell of the Empress's humanoid half suddenly cracked, and something was surging inside. In an instant, a clump of whiskers erupted from the Empress's body, and they flew away from the left and right, entangled Nelly and Lola in the blink of an eye, and lifted them into the air. At this time, the flesh whiskers lit up with blue light from the roots, and the blue light advanced step by step, and a huge force accompanied the light tide, hitting Lola and Nelly's bodies fiercely.
The two of them were as if they had been smashed to the chest by a giant hammer, and Nelly, who had a weak physique and source power, rushed out a mouthful of blood and passed out. Although Lola did not lose consciousness, her face became gray and ugly.
The empress's eyes lit up, and she was about to impact the two again. Suddenly, a wave of scorching air rushed to the sky, and the Empress of Fear looked up, only to see Eren lift the Red King and swing it horizontally.
Break the city with one sword!
