Boom!

Another punch with magical power, Zheng Shu waved his glowing arm and sent the lion flying again.

Taking a slight breath and looking at the lion who got up from the ground again unharmed, Zheng Shu felt a toothache for the first time in a long time.

Faced with this kind of defensive power, which was famous throughout ancient Greek mythology, Zheng Shu had to admit that he really didn't know where to start now.

At the beginning of the battle, Zheng Shu also delusionally tried to break the lion's defense with his own attacks.

He once tried to use ninety percent of his physical strength to release the spirit of speech, and he also gathered all the energy of the spirit of the spirit on the mace, and gathered the terrifying energy in the light cannon that could have released hundreds of meters long and destroyed a forest to one point, trying to rely on this extremely condensed power to break through the opponent's defense.

The result made Zheng Shu surprised, theoretically speaking, the mace that could cut off any substance only made a small part of the lion's hair appear a little scorched curl, not to mention that the other party was injured, he didn't even break the outermost fur defense of this lion.

And within a few minutes, even the curly hairs had completely healed themselves, returning to their original smooth and supple appearance.

As a consequence of this attack, Zheng Shu had to use a "resurrection" to recover his strength and injuries in the face of the lion, who had become extremely angry because of the damage to his hair.

In addition to this unbreakable defense, the lion's claws and teeth are also sharper than you can imagine.

Zheng Shu's mace, which had just been repaired by the sun god Apollo, was scratched by a claw and was scratched with a deep paw print, and the hard dragon scales that grew on his body felt like a fluffy biscuit in front of the other party's teeth, without any defense, and finally Zheng Shu, who was distressed, simply dropped the mace and fought the lion with only his fists.

Unexpectedly, because all of Zheng Shu's attacks could not have an effect on this lion, after discarding the mace, Zheng Shu's injuries began to decrease due to the sharp increase in dexterity.

Because no matter whether the weapon was used or not, it could not cause substantial damage to the lion, and after discarding the weapon, the physical exertion was greatly reduced, and the situation in which Zheng Shu was in was invisibly improved.

After that, Zheng Shu did not try to learn the way that Heracrosss defeated it in myths and legends to deal with it, but when it came to actual operation, Zheng Shu helplessly found that at least now he can't do it at all.

The most important reason is that his power is too small.

To say that before this, Zheng Shu was most proud of his own violent power, even before he learned to release his magic power, his strength had reached a shocking level, and the multi-ton mace could be wielded with one hand, and it could be easily used in battle.

And after learning the technique of releasing magic power from Vera, Zheng Shu's instantaneous burst of power rose several notches.

He originally thought that in this world, except for some top-level giant beasts and gods, there should be no creature with stronger strength than him, but now this lion let Zheng Shu know that he thought too much, and the water of the god generation was much deeper than he imagined.

- The strength of this lion is actually about the same as Zheng Shu's normal strength!

And because of the difference in size and weight, from the very beginning, Zheng Shu fell behind in the strength test with the lion. If it weren't for the fact that he had learned to release magic power, he could greatly increase his strength in a short period of time, and Zheng Shu even doubted that he would be pressed and beaten by this lion all the time.

Such a fact even made Zheng Shu begin to doubt his life.

You know, when he was on Nameless Island, Zheng Shu also asked the three Gorgons sisters, and learned from them that in terms of pure physical strength, he was at the top level even compared to dragons of the same age.

As a result, after coming out of the island, first the beetle was the leader, and now the lion, and the strength of each was not weaker than his own.

Zheng Shu fell into a huge confusion, could it be said that in the God Dynasty, the dragon species was just a unit of measurement?

All in all, because there was not much difference in strength, Zheng Shu's plan to hang his head failed.

Even if he used his magic power to let his power press the lion and strangle its neck in a short period of time, Zheng Shu could not keep choking the lion's throat and making it unable to breathe while the lion was struggling violently.

As for putting a hand out of the mouth and tearing it out of the throat to kill it, that's even more nonsense.

Not to mention that this lion's visceral defense is also quite good, and it is still a question whether Zheng Shu can hurt his throat if he puts his hand in it. The teeth in the lion's mouth are not much blunt than its claws, Zheng Shu dares to put his hand into it, and it dares to bite down, and then it will give it an arm as food for nothing.

However, Zheng Shu was not the only one who was disgusted in this battle, this lion also felt very disgusting.

Unlike previous prey that could be easily captured, this prey was actually as powerful as itself, and it was superior in speed.

In addition to these two points, the prey's recovery ability and physical strength are also unbelievably strong, and the damage has already been done, but the injury will heal completely in the blink of an eye.

And the opponent's strength will occasionally increase explosively, although he will not be injured, but the pain will not decay.

At first, the lion did want to capture Zheng Shu for his own food because of his offense, but as time went by, the two sides were exhausted from torturing each other, and the lion's inner thoughts gradually changed, and now it just wanted this troublesome guy to leave its territory.

It's a pity that at this point, it was Zheng Shu who didn't want the other party to leave.

And the lion, as the overlord of this jungle, naturally did not allow himself to show a fearful posture in front of other creatures, so in the face of Zheng Shu's luck, he could only continue to fight.

……

……

Boom!

Another muffled sound of flesh blows came from the jungle, but this time it was much quieter than the previous roar.

Zheng Shu looked at the lion who was kicked by himself and was a little helpless, his strength this time was obviously attenuated a lot, the lion just slid on the ground for a few meters and then stopped, not even a big tree was broken.

Panting heavily, a massive amount of magic power from the air relied on breathing to continuously converge into his body, penetrating into Zheng Shu's muscles to restore his state.

But no matter how these magic powers are replenished, Zheng Shu's body is like a bottomless pit that cannot be filled, which shows that Zheng Shu's body and physical strength have indeed reached the most extreme state.

However, compared to Zheng Shu, the lion's state is even worse.

Ten minutes ago, the originally lazy and arrogant lion had completely curled up, in a state of only being beaten and not fighting back.

As a creature, no matter how strong the lion's defense is, its own energy reserves are also limited.

By now, Zheng Shu had even clearly felt that the lion had lost a lot of weight.

The energy stored in the body is almost depleted, and even the magic power is in short supply, and the originally shiny and smooth hair has become dry, and the outer skin has become a little loose due to the large consumption of subcutaneous fat in the body, and the lion now looks completely malnourished.

Of course, Zheng Shu's own state is not much better.

However, in this state, Zheng Shu's advantages as a dragon species have finally emerged, and every time he breathes, a large amount of magic power will be generated in his body out of thin air, and with the magic power absorbed from the outside world, Zheng Shu's endurance far exceeds that of the lion.

Glancing at the lion lying motionless on the ground, Zheng Shu gasped for breath a few times again, and finally sighed and sat on the ground.

The other party had been beaten by him for more than ten minutes without fighting back, but even he couldn't break through the lion's defense in his heyday, and of course it wouldn't cause much damage when he was so seriously tired, so Zheng Shu simply gave up and continued to attack.

After all, maintaining such a high intensity of fighting under extreme fatigue is also a rather willpower test for him.

"Hmm......" found that Zheng Shu did not continue to attack him, and the lion lying on the ground in the distance let out a whimpering sound. After quietly looking up, he confirmed that Zheng Shu was indeed sitting on the ground and did not continue to attack......

Swish!

The lion jumped up at a speed that was completely out of his size, and disappeared from Zheng Shu's field of vision after jumping a few times in a row...... It actually escaped.

Zheng Shu was stunned to see the back of the lion fleeing, although his movements were still a little staggered when he ran, it seemed that he should not have fully recovered his strength, but the other party did try his best to escape.

The look on his face struggled a few times, and Zheng Shu finally gave up his plan to catch up, and at this point, he was already disgusted with this kind of never-ending battle that would not lead to anything.

"Escape, just escape, anyway, my goal has been achieved, and I'll come to you to settle accounts after I finish strengthening the template." Zheng Shu thought viciously in his heart.

He felt his eyelids become heavier and heavier, after all, he hadn't slept for days, and he had been in the middle of a high-intensity battle, and the fatigue that had accumulated after losing the support of his will immediately came up.

Zheng Shu climbed to the tree, found a suitable branch and lay down, and then closed his eyes.

……

……

“！！！”

Zheng Shu, who had been in a deep sleep, suddenly woke up, because his perception told him that a creature that was extremely threatening to him suddenly came around him.

Looking up, it was already approaching dusk, and the biological clock told Zheng Shu that he had slept here for a whole day.

After a long day of hibernation, the fatigue on my body was gone, and although I hadn't fully recovered my full victory, it was enough to support the next battle.

Zheng Shu opened his eyes wide and searched around to prevent something from attacking him from the shadows, and he thought that it was very likely that the lion had come to take revenge after recuperating.

Knock knock!

"Hello, little brother, I want to ask you a little question."

The big tree where Zheng Shu was suddenly shook, and when he looked down, he saw that a strong man who was several heads taller than himself was looking up at him under the tree. The vibration just now was caused by him knocking on the tree in a way similar to knocking on the door, but the seemingly light knock caused the big tree that the two of them hugged violently to vibrate.

"Ahh Sorry, isn't it a little brother? Hercules also saw Zheng Shu's face clearly after he lowered his head, and immediately scratched his head with some embarrassment.

"No, you're right, I'm a man." Zheng Shu turned over and jumped down, feeling the sense of crisis that kept coming from his perception, and Zheng Shu knew the identity of the strong man in front of him in an instant.

"That little brother, you are really good-looking." Hercules smiled innocently and waved his hand at Zheng Shu, "That's the case, I have something I want to ask." ”

"Well, of course it's no problem, my name is Zheng Shu, what about you?" Zheng Shu nodded gently, and stretched out his hand by the way.

Hercules looked at Zheng Shu's outstretched hand and was stunned for a moment, but quickly understood what the other party meant, and stretched out his hand to shake it with him like Zheng Shu: "My name is Hercules, and I am here to crusade against a powerful lion, I wonder if you have any clues, little brother?" ”

[The user has come into contact with a carrier containing an unknown factor and has started testing the sample]

【Testing......

[After the test is completed, the reinforcement template has been set up according to the carrier sample]

Looking at the information on the panel, the smile on Zheng Shu's face became even brighter: "Don't be so polite, I also encountered that lion a few days ago, and I was beaten by it a lot, if you can crusade against it, I will be grateful." ”

"I see." Hercules nodded knowingly, looking serious, "So the clothes on your body were damaged in battle, right?" I thought you liked it. ”

"Huh?" Zheng Shu's face froze.

Looking down, he was actually naked now...... This is also a matter of course, the lion's claws are so sharp, and the clothes on Zheng Shu's body are not as hard as his scales, and it is impossible to preserve them in such a fierce battle.

At the beginning, Zheng Shu may still be a little ashamed when his clothes were broken, but because this was originally a forest, there was no second person to see him, so Zheng Shu simply let go of his hands and feet and no longer cared about the clothes.

And in the back, because he had been fighting for five days and five nights, Zheng Shu had long been used to the feeling of not having any clothes on his body. In addition, the defense of his skin is strong enough, even if he lies directly on the trunk, there will be no discomfort, so that unconsciously, Zheng Shu actually made a naked (harmonious) state.
