After saying goodbye to Marilyn, Ronald and the mage continued their journey into the forest. Without Bruno's gags, the two seemed quiet as they walked. In the past few days, they have been doing their own things tacitly, except for necessary exchanges. Ronald volunteered to serve as a vigil, and the mage was glad to see it happen.

The sun was blazing, but it didn't bring any warmth to the forest. Golden light casts straight through the gaps in the treetops, creating clear and transparent pillars of light scattered throughout the forest.

At noon, Ronald, who took the initiative to explore the way, suddenly stopped his steps.

"What's that?"

Ronald whispered, gesturing to the half-dead tree that had fallen next to the pond in front of him.

The mage who followed behind him looked in the direction he pointed--- there was a gray-brown magic lizard that seemed to be fused with dead wood, and if you didn't look closely, you really couldn't find it.

The mage shook his head, lamenting his bad luck, and whispered, "There are actually demon lizards on the outskirts of the forest?"

"Devil lizard?"

Seeing the appearance of the mage, Ronald was a little eager to try, he felt a little unaccustomed to being too quiet these days, and always wanted to find something to do. Right now, there was a ready-made magical beast blocking his way, and he couldn't help but feel a little itchy.

Without waiting for the mage to speak, he focused on the beast.

He saw that the magic lizard was about three meters long, nearly four meters long, more than one meter tall, and its whole body was tan, as if it was one with the dead wood. It resembles a magnified gecko, but it is covered in jagged scales and has two brown horns thirty centimeters long on its head. At the moment, it was lying lazily on the dead wood, its eyes slightly closed, and it seemed to be sleeping.

Seeing Ronald's eager eyes, the mage couldn't help but smile slightly, feeling the young man's momentum: "Don't look at that guy is lazy, it's not slow to run, and." He pointed to the dark paws: "There are paralyzing toxins stored there. ”

Hearing the mage's reminder, Ronald immediately moved his gaze to the claws of the demonic beast--- which was jet black and shiny, exuding a crystal luster like a jewel. Ronald raised his eyebrows, his expression a little excited: "You say, can I solve it?"

"Hehe, there is no inevitable result in fighting when there is not much difference in each other's strength. Seeing the excitement on his face, the mage's face was full of smiles: "Unless, the difference between the strength of you and it is really huge, then you can not be afraid of any of its attacks without relying on special equipment on both sides." ”

"Hey, hey. Ronald twisted his neck: "Tell me what you know." ”

The mage stopped playing tricks: "When angry, its power should be able to shatter rocks." ”

"That means you haven't reached the strength to cut rocks?" Ronald turned his head and glanced back: "Then I'll go first?"

"Be careful, and don't break its toes. The mage patted Ronald on the back: "The poison sac in the flesh pad of the foot is a valuable material. ”

Nodding, Ronald took his sword and rushed cautiously. The mage, on the other hand, carefully prepared the first-order spell-toxin neutralization, intending to rescue him at any time.

The sound of rustling footsteps sounded in the forest.

But it didn't take long for the magic lizard, which was basking in the sun, to notice the black-haired human who was rapidly approaching him. Its slightly closed eye membrane opened violently to reveal turquoise vertical pupils, and the bone spurs on its neck also spread out into a fan shape in an instant. With intense hostility, the lizard quickly crawled down from the dead wood and scurried towards Ronald with agility.

Sou!

Less than five meters closer to Ronald, it suddenly stretched out its slender scarlet tongue, trying to engulf its enemies in its belly.

It was as fast as a sharp arrow, but Ronald was not in a hurry, and he immediately rolled with a sharp stop and ran behind the tree on the side.

Streaming down.

On the grass, there are a large traces of bending. And after a snap, the lizard's tongue stuck to a growing dark green bark.

Looking at the white flower mark on the trunk of the tree, Ronald thought to himself that it was good that he was able to hide quickly. He thought for a moment, feeling that the speed caused by the Ice Mirror Technique seemed to be no match for the speed at which the demonic beast stuck out its tongue.

Seeing that there was no movement behind the tree, the enraged lizard could not bear it anymore, and it stuck out its tongue as if demonstrating, and rushed towards Ronald. As it approached Ronald's hiding place, it suddenly lowered its head and pushed its horns against Ronald.

Ronald was not afraid at all, he used his long sword to block, but his body was pushed back again and again by the huge force of the demon lizard.

Laugh at.

The grass was suddenly dragged into a pitch-black bruise. As soon as the magic lizard raised its head and followed by its tail, Ronald quickly jumped away.

Bang!

A magic arrow hit the lizard's head, and Ronald quickly turned his head and shouted, "Don't worry, I can do it!"

The mage smiled and shook his head slightly, and quickly hid in the distance to guard Ronald.

Although not injured, the lizard suffered pain, twisted its head a few times, and then slapped it at Ronald with one claw. Ronald remembered the mage's advice and quickly dodged its attack.

Click, a small tree behind Ronald was torn off by the claw blow of the demon lizard and broke off directly.

Isn't it very strong?

The corners of Ronald's mouth were lightly raised, and confidence flowed in his eyes.

After figuring out the enemy's patterns, he didn't care about the attack of the demon lizard. Ronald wielded his weapon and flew around the lizard like an agile spotted leopard, marking one mark after another. However, due to his lack of strength, his attacks were unable to cut through the lizard's rocky scaly skin.

It seems that I haven't met a decent opponent for too long, which makes me a little overconfident...... By the way, the eyes and abdomen! No matter how well they are protected, those two places are generally vulnerable.

With a thought in his mind, Ronald immediately ran to the tail of the lizard with his sword. As it raised its tail and pumped it towards itself, it swung its sword and slashed upwards towards the lizard's lower abdomen.

Burst!

The demon lizard's lower abdomen was cut with a deep wound. Seeing that the attack worked, Ronald secretly became excited, and he immediately jumped away to dodge the lizard's counterattack, and continued to look for opportunities. After dodging the lizard's tongue again, he quickly rolled forward and approached the lizard's abdomen, quickly slashed with his sword a few times, and then rolled out again.

Not.

The lizard let out a low roar, two more wounds in its abdomen next to its front paws, and it turned its head to glare at Ronald angrily, its periosteum fluttering there.

Poof.

Ronald saw that as the fan-shaped periosteum continued to open and close, blue tendons appeared on its neck. Seeing this moment, Ronald raised an eyebrow and threw the weapon in his hand at the lizard's left eye. With another snap, the weapon was thrown to the ground, and all he saw was that the lizard's left eye was closed, and blood was gurgling out of its socket, apparently blind.

"Howl!"

The lizard immediately rolled wildly, and Ronald strode forward, picking up his weapon and quickly dodging away. After a short while, the lizard stood up again, its right eye turning from turquoise to red, and its speed suddenly became much faster.

He was originally very easy to dodge the attacks of the magic lizard, but he found that he needed to pay careful attention to each attack of the magic lizard, and he also found that the power of the magic lizard was also a little greater.

The lizard didn't care about the wounds at all now, and its red eyes began to turn to Ronald and attack him wildly, so fast that Ronald was almost scratched by his claws several times.

The mage immediately reminded him: "It has blessed itself with second-order magic-Bloodthirsty thaumaturgy, which is a crazy killing intent that can ignore the pain and slightly improve its own state, you have to be careful!" At the same time, he also approved the Body Protector Aegis, but after thinking about it, he gave up his plan to bless Ronald.

Ronald's weapon also quickly condensed a touch of blue ice crystal. The demon lizard that slammed into it once again pressed its horns against Ronald's clenched weapon.

While!

Under that huge habitual surname, Ronald's hands were slightly numb.

Without waiting for Ronald to fight back, the demon lizard suddenly raised its head and aimed its mouth at Ronald.

"Shh

Ronald quickly flashed to the side.

Syllable!

Along with the dirt, the retracted tongue stuck to a small straw stick.

Ronald frowned, and took advantage of the moment when his tongue was not fully retracted, and gave the devil lizard a smack. With a snap, he found his weapon stuck in a fan-shaped bone spur in his neck. Ronald squinted his eyes and quickly pulled hard, but found that he was stuck. Before he could exert any more force in his hand, the demon lizard suddenly twisted its head quickly, and the spurs flashed with a burning reflection, and stabbed Ronald in the stomach.

In desperation, Ronald had no choice but to abandon the sword.

Whew.

The periosteum on the lizard's neck continued to open and close, and it slowly turned around and stared at the human boy viciously, its only remaining scarlet right eye full of scorching murderous intent. Together with that huge body, it gives Ronald a strong sense of oppression.

Glancing at the inquiring gaze in the mage's eyes, Ronald hurriedly spoke: "It's okay, I can do it!"

"Bloodthirsty thaumaturgy just ignores the pain, and if you bleed too much, you will still die. Sensing the confidence in his eyes, the mage put the short wooden staff down again: "If you feel reluctant, then give it more wounds to delay time." ”

As he spoke, the demon lizard suddenly rushed over.

Whoa!

As he ran, his huge body brought out a large number of leaves flying in the forest.

In the face of this crazy monster that blessed him with magic, Ronald's eyes were calm, and he kept moving his body, using the advantage of the terrain to slow down the impact of the magic lizard.

Squeak, click.

The sound of broken branches kept ringing.

The enraged lizard realized that the enemy in front of him was too cunning, and each time he suddenly turned around and hid behind a tree before he could get closer. After chasing it several times, the result was this, and in a fit of rage, the demon lizard simply turned around and rushed towards the mage.

Ronald cursed secretly, and quickly condensed the ice sword and chased after him.

When the lizard heard the sound of rapid footsteps behind him, it suddenly stopped its rushing body, turned its head in the direction of Ronald, and shook its tail fiercely.

Syllable!

Ronald's hands clenching the weapon were slightly raised, almost out of strength, and he only felt his palms numb and painful. Although he blocked the lizard's surprise attack, Ronald was still a little staggered by the huge pump, and involuntarily swayed and walked several steps.

Sou!

The scarlet tongue squirted out the moment Ronald wasn't looking, wrapping Ronald in it with precision.

Ronald, who was still stumbling, only felt his waist tighten, and his chest felt suffocated before he could breathe, and then he found that the surrounding scenery was rapidly swept back, and there was a light floating touch under his feet.

Frightened, he hurriedly slammed the ice sword into the ground with his backhand. The ice sword silently sinked into the ground, and Ronald's body was steady in place in front of the big mouth of the demon lizard's fangs. Without waiting for the demon lizard to exert its strength, Ronald, who stabilized his body, immediately drew his sword and slashed at the scarlet tongue, forcing the demon lizard to withdraw its tongue.

The icy sword was in his hand, but Ronald felt a slippery heat in his palm. Glancing at the lizard's mouth with intertwined teeth enough to swallow most of his body, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
