Chapter 933: Misty Cave (4)
The rhythmic chanting was completed, and the beam of lightning with the thickness of an adult's arm flew out of the hands of a dark elf maid, and directly hit a four-armed demon ape across the road, and the sudden magic attack made this magical beast, which was known for its agility, not make any dodging movements at all, and was directly blown away by the magical energy contained in the lightning beam. Countless arcs of lightning scurried from the four-armed demon ape's body, causing the dark environment of the first layer of the Mist Cavern to appear blue.
After hitting the first target, the arm-thick beam of lightning only became a little thinner, and then ejected from the body part that hit the four-armed demon ape, and after flying a very short distance in the air, it bombarded the other four-armed demon ape beside it again, knocking this guy with a length of nearly 3 meters into the air, but the distance of the collision was shorter than the previous one.
Such a catapult was carried out more than a dozen times in a row, and the entire lightning beam ran out of energy and disappeared into the air. Since the power of this "chain lightning" spell decreases significantly every time it is fired, only the four-armed demon ape that was hit at the front was bombarded and flew out, and those behind only took a few steps backwards and sat on the ground after being hit by lightning.
Although these demon apes that were knocked out of the air were not injured and died on the spot, they would also suffer severe pain, especially the paralyzing sensation caused by the lightning striking the body would temporarily incapacitate the four-armed demon ape, although it could only last for a few seconds, it would also be fatal in a fierce battle. Therefore, although the demon apes that were knocked out were more seriously injured, they at least got rid of the battle, and did not want their companions who sat on the ground to become prey waiting to be killed.
After breaking up the queue of four-armed demon apes, the maid who was a warrior brandished a scimitar and rushed into the center of the scattered demon apes, and began to fight these monsters who tried to attack Ryan and his party, all they had to do was to block the path of these monsters in front of them, so that they could not attack their companions behind them, and at the same time look for the right opportunity to launch a fatal blow.
In order to cooperate with the companions in front of them, behind these warrior-type handmaidens, the Dark Elf Lady-in-Waitress Priest, who believed in the goddess Rose, sang aloud poems in praise of the Spider Goddess and blessed his companions with various auxiliary magic. Due to the chaos of the scene, the remaining few Dark Elf maid thieves did not hide their whereabouts and wait for the opportunity to launch a backstab, but carried a crossbow to provide long-range support.
In the rear of all the handmaidens, Ryan and the other four stood side by side, silently watching the battle in front of them, the number and strength of those handmaidens were almost the same as the four-armed demon apes that came to attack, with the excellent equipment and tacit cooperation of the handmaidens, it was not too difficult to solve these demon apes, and they also had to use practical actions to prove that they would not drag the entire adventure team back, otherwise the Heristan mistress could completely cruelly and ruthlessly abandon them and go on their own, leaving these dark elf maids to fend for themselves on this first layer.
With the solid protection of the Mithril armor on their bodies, coupled with the various auxiliary magic blessings of the companions behind them, the warrior-type maids who rushed to the front line were not afraid of the sharp claws and hammers of the four-armed demon ape, but it was also a luxury for the maids to kill the agile and fast-acting demon apes around them as soon as possible, and the battle was temporarily stalemate.
Although there were their companions in front of them, the mage-type maids in the back continued to chant the spell of "Chain Lightning" without any scruples, and quickly completed the spell in their hands, blasting the thick lightning beam into the center of the battlefield where friends and enemies were mixed. When the pale blue halo of chain lightning struck a dark elf companion in front of her, it only caused the armor she was wearing to emit the same blue halo, which was obviously some kind of protective spell.
After hitting the companion, the chain of lightning bounced out like this, as if the light was refracted on the bronze mirror, and it bounced back and forth several times on the four-armed demon apes beside the dark elf maid before disappearing into the air, and the maid who was hit first by this magic was not hurt at all, she took a step and spun in place, and soon launched a "blade storm" attack, directly killing the demon apes who were entangled with her.
The demon apes killed less and less, and the dark elf maids fought more and more bravely, and in a moment they had the upper hand in the whole battle, those four-armed demon apes originally wanted to hunt for food, but now they became prey, in the face of the crisis of survival, these demon apes were timid, they let out a "squeak" sound, and retreated in the direction where they came. If it is a well-trained warrior, even if it retreats, there must be a broken arrangement to prevent being chased by the enemy, and these four-armed demon apes do not have this consciousness at all, they are completely to see who runs faster, this kind of behavior of leaving their backs to the enemy is extremely stupid, but unfortunately the dark elf maid is not here to hunt the monster, just a symbolic chase of a few hundred meters.
Twenty minutes of battle is not a very long time, at least it should be very short between the legendary powerhouse and the legendary demonic beast, the large group of four-armed demon apes left more than thirty corpses and fled in a hurry, these demon apes have very sharp claws, can be used as claw sleeves like weapons, or as sharp arrows, and their fur is soft and has a certain strength, it is one of the best materials for making leather armor, but Ryan They still ignored these scattered "gold coins" scattered all over the ground, and continued to move forward after only resting for ten minutes.
Now Ryan and the others have almost walked through the previous flat ground covered with sand and gravel, and began to enter the area of large rocks, these rocks are at least five meters high, but there are large gaps between them, when Ryan and they pass through these rock crevices that are almost enough for two or three people to walk side by side, they will often see unknown vines and plants hanging upside down from the rocks, and occasionally some scarce magical beasts will appear in Ryan's vision or perception area, but these magical beasts will soon quickly move away because they are afraid of the number of people on Ryan's sideIn their opinion, Ryan's group of "demonic beasts" that they have never seen before are not something they can provoke.
"Roar!" was walking, suddenly a not loud voice came from the front, listening to the sound source should be five kilometers away, which is beyond the range of Ryan they can perceive now, but in order to ensure safety, Ryan and the others still stopped at the first time, and those maids quickly jumped on the rocks and scattered around to strengthen the vigilance. A collision sound was passed again, followed by a cry of pain, obviously there was a battle breaking out in the distance, but for a while it was impossible to tell what kind of monster was fighting, so the Heristt master said in a deep voice: "Be careful, let's go over and take a look." ”
Ryan and the others hid their whereabouts and slowly approached the direction of the source of the sound, this way of walking was naturally much slower than normal walking, but it was much safer and more cautious, but in the next part of the journey, the more Ryan and the others walked, the more they felt that the temperature in the air was dropping rapidly, and the surface of the huge rocks around them no longer had unknown vines, but faintly became smooth, it was a layer of frost as thin as cicada wings.
After walking about a kilometer further, the scene of the area where the battle was taking place finally came into the range of Ryan's magical vision, and a white scene immediately appeared in his mind. It was a world frozen by the cold, the rocks on the ground were completely frozen into hard ice, the air was cold enough for the blood in the body to clot, and it was the frost lizards that roared in the middle of the ice.
The frost lizard is about thirty meters long, its belly is particularly huge, and its limbs are relatively stubby, and when this frost lizard crawls, its entire abdomen is completely dragged on the ground, which makes the frost lizard look very clumsy. However, the body of the frost lizard is covered with white translucent scales, and those scales are all snowflake-shaped hexagons, through which the internal organs and bones of the frost lizard can be faintly seen, so these scales are more like ice cubes frozen on the body of the frost lizard, rather than the solid armor that has accompanied it since birth.
The frost lizard opened its mouth and let out a low roar, the cry that Ryan had heard before came from the mouth of this demonic beast whose strength had reached the peak level of legend. Now a large crack appeared on the surface of this frost lizard's body, obviously it had suffered a small blow from the enemy in the battle just now, and the obvious pain in its body did not affect its overall strength. As for the one who can give trauma to this kind of demonic beast that is about to be promoted to the realm, it is naturally the black-bellied tarantula that is also at the peak level of legend suspended opposite this frost lizard at this time.
"It turned out to be a battle for power. Ryan said this in a voice that only a few people around him could hear, he saw everything that happened several kilometers away through the magic divine eye, it was obvious that the black-bellied tarantula planned to speed up the promotion process by eating the frost lizard, so that he could speed up the promotion process and impact the realm one day earlier, but the strength of the two of them was relatively close, although the black-bellied tarantula had a slight advantage, it was not obvious, it had been very patient to hang around the frost lizard, waiting for a better opportunity to attack.
Ryan soon noticed that there was a faint reflection in the place where the black-bellied tarantula passed, and it turned out that this legendary monster did not really have the ability to fly, but weaved a large spider web around the frost lizard, and it was all in its own spider web, so as to avoid falling into the ice around the frost lizard and affecting its speed.
