The main monster in the mantis village must be the praying mantis.

There are two types, one is the mantis warrior standing on the ground, which is different from the monsters that Er Xiao encountered before that would be repelled if he hit.

When the Mantis Warrior takes his attack stance, it will not retreat when hit, but will swing a knife forward.

Erxiao also has a long memory after suffering two losses, always keeping in mind the rhythm of the attack, and not greedy for knives, the enemy attacks first sprint backwards, and then look for an opportunity to attack.

There is also a praying mantis youth that flies through the air and will attack you with the last spike of its tail.

As long as you are not in a hurry, there is no difficulty.

In the continuous exploration of the mantis village, the little knight also discovered his second ability.

[Praying Mantis Claw]

This is also known as wall climbing.

The very classic design of the left and right walls makes you feel a kind of heartfelt fun the moment you get this ability.

But fun is always short-lived, and suffering is the main theme of the Hollow Knight.

As Erxiao continues to explore to the right, a completely different map design from the previous one that can be passed by just jumping comes into view.

On the left is the wall, and below is the thorn.

How can a dictionary be written?

The method is also very simple, after having the mantis claw, the little knight attached to the wall will slowly slide down, and when it slides to the correct position, you only need to press a dash to successfully reach the short, narrow platform on the right.

But it is well known.

The brain and the hand are two different things.

Brain: Enough distance, rush! You're so rushed!

Hand: Oh, jump!

Press the wrong key and fall into the spike, press early to fall into the spike, rush through the fall into the spike!

Er Xiao, who has obtained new abilities, does not feel that this game has become easier, but more difficult!

Because with new abilities come new puzzles! Lo doesn't let you be lazy in a place like this.

"Didn't you play Ori? Shouldn't this level of jumping music have hands? ”

"It's stupid...... I want to sell this anchor. ”

"How much is a pound?"

"Three dollars a catty, ten dollars and three catties?"

"Give me GCK for the one who sells bamboo rats!"

Er Xiao replied weakly:

"It's been a year since I played Ori, and I'm not familiar with this game for a long time."

"Haha, others play games to torture monsters, but it's okay for you to play games to torture the audience."

"I'm going to get a brain congestion."

"It is recommended to pay for a substitute."

But overall, Er Xiao still managed to jump to the opposite side and open the mechanism that led to the bottom of Mantis Village.

Playing and playing, Er Xiao is somewhat out of defense.

"Isn't this praying mantis village your home! Why put so many spikes! How much do you have that serious illness! ”

Scolding and scolding, water friends are happy, but the game still has to continue to play.

With the mechanism at the bottom of the mantis village being opened, the most classic battle in the early stage of the entire Hollow Knight is coming!

In the background, the three lords are at the top of the throne, except for a broken chair beside them.

The three praying mantis lords looked down on our little knight, and as we walked to the left to bypass them, the door to the room on the right slammed shut.

At this moment, there are only two choices in front of us, one is to retreat backwards and act as if we have never been to this place.

The other is to stand in the center, pull out the bone nails, and face the challenge head-on!

Players who have not really experienced this game will never understand what kind of emotion will be filled in the heart when the little knight turns his back to the player, faces the three lords on the stage, and brazenly pulls out his bone nail that is not a magnitude at all to face the challenge.

And as the rhythmic sound of battle resounded in their ears, the three mantis lords stood up from their seats, and the left and right sides were also locked by the railings.

The battle is on!

The central mantis lord leaps high and disappears into his seat.

As if in front of him, the mantis lord suddenly appeared on the guardrail on the right, and the nail spear in his hand was thrown vigorously, turning into a whirling moon disk, and heading towards the little knight at a very fast speed.

Er Xiao jumped high and wanted to dodge, but the moon disk, which was still flying close to the ground, suddenly rose, and Er Xiao jumped up with the original intention of dodging, but at this moment it seemed to be crashing head-on towards the monster's attack!

Accompanied by the sound effects and special effects of the blood shedding, the little knight's mask was rubbed off a single square.

Er Xiao's heart also seemed to mention his throat, and he kept hinting in his heart that he must see the monster's attack clearly.

She never thought that she would be able to defeat the boss for the first time, but as long as she could figure out the monster's move ideas and find the corresponding dodge methods, it would only be a matter of time before she was beaten.

Er Xiao's attention was focused on the guardrails on both sides, and the mantis lord who threw out the nail spear jumped up and disappeared without a trace.

In the next second, it suddenly appeared above the little knight, and the vertical spear went straight down.

There was no time to react, and Er Xiao was hit again!

She frantically pressed the gathering button to restore her health, but the mantis lord was elusive and attacked as fast as a shower.

The little knight had not been halfway through gathering in place when it suddenly appeared behind the little knight and rushed sideways.

Hit again without any surprise!

The whole process happened too fast and too fast, and in less than half a minute, the little knight's HP was already only two squares, and it became precarious!

"This mantis lord's desire to attack is not at all the same level as the previous fake knights and bumblebees!

The attack frequency is too fast, and there is no chance of regenerating health at all! ”

"That's not all, and this guy has only a short time to appear each time, and there is not much chance of producing an effective output to it."

"Is there a big hand who understands how to fight this monster? I find it hard to watch. ”

Compared with the previous group ridicule of Erxiao's operation in the live broadcast room, this time, the big guy is still not embarrassed.

The frequency of attacks of this intensity, if you want to talk about dishes or something, it's completely embarrassing.

But at the end of the day, no one has been able to summarize any good coping measures.

The main reason is that Er Xiao died too quickly.

In the whole battle, the mantis lord made five shots, and Er Xiao didn't dodge even one attack, so he died directly.

Watching the little knight resurrect in that chair 108,000 miles away from Mantis Village, Er Xiao was more or less a little cryless.

Thinking of having to run so far back here, there are sour water, monsters, and spikes on the way, and even if she really comes to the boss's room again, she who has not yet mastered the mechanics of the boss, will be such a futile death, Er Xiao's heart more or less emerged a strong antipathy for this game.

At this moment, she has a vague impulse in her heart, directly drop the handle, close the game, broadcast live, who she loves!

"To be reasonable, Mr. Luo should still put a chair next to this boss room, this back and forth is too far, a little can't cover it, brothers."

"Xiaozi won't break the defense, don't be like this, don't be like this, aren't these fake knights and bumblebees like this?"

"Death is death, as if no one has died, and if you fight again, it's over!"

"One library left! There are so many water friends in the live broadcast room today to play three praying mantis with you! ”

Er Xiao exhaled a long breath and his eyes froze.

Embark on the journey again.

Yes, it's a long road; Yes, the boss's movements are not even seen clearly; Yes, even if she runs one more time, it is very likely that she will run 100 million times again.

But so what?

It's not for the live broadcast, it's not for the heat, it's not for the salary that Mr. Luo pays.

It's just that I'm not convinced.

What's hard, what a boss, and then it's!

After a lot of hard work, he once again came to the room where the mantis lords were, and the little knight once again pulled out the bone nails towards the mantis lords!

The passionate and rhythmic battle music sounded again, and the barrage was full of everyone's encouragement to Er Xiao.

"Come on! Hold on a little longer this time! ”

"Dodge the attack and you're successful!"

"Don't rush! Don't rush! Don't rush! ”

The familiar nail spear moon disk struck again, Er Xiao took a deep breath, jumped high, jumped behind the moon disk, and successfully dodged!

But the straight insertion that fell from the sky, Er Xiao didn't react, and was hit directly.

Taking a deep breath, Erxiao mechanically slid the left and right joysticks, so that the little knight was in a state of walking around at any time.

The next moment, the Mantis Lord reappeared on the wall on the right and swung his spear.

Er Xiao jumped up subconsciously, but this time the moon disk did not fly close to the ground, but was directly thrown in mid-air.

The little knight is injured again!

The mantis lord who suddenly appeared on the left side of the platform made Er Xiao's heart skip a beat, and as she pressed the jump button to jump high, this attack was finally successfully avoided!

"There are two kinds of things like this boomerang that this boss puts in the air, one is in the air, and then it disappears close to the ground.

One is placed close to the ground, and then it will turn to it and disappear. ”

"Make use of the sprint! The newly acquired abilities won't be used, will they? With a sprint, you can smoothly dodge the move of smashing from the sky! ”

"Hide beautifully! See this guy's move clearly, and when you put back the boomerang move, you can jump up and force this one a few times! ”

The barrage was fiercely discussing how to dodge the mantis lord's attack, how to attack.

But at this time, Er Xiao couldn't do two things.

She was so engrossed in her own battle with the slender warrior, carefully dodging its stormy onslaught.

smashed again, and Er Xiao died on the spot.

But she was not discouraged in her eyes, because compared to the first time when she lasted five rounds and died, this time she lasted more than ten rounds.

This is undoubtedly a huge step forward! Although it didn't rub the mantis lord a few times from beginning to end.

Again!

3rd, 4th ......

The road from the chair on top of the acid pond to the mantis village is extremely familiar, and running this road is like going home, which is very pleasant.

And Er Xiao was finally able to calmly dodge the attack of the mantis lord, and took the time to give this guy two knives.

Although from time to time, because of mistakes in positioning, he has to be rubbed twice, but now Er Xiao can say it confidently:

"I'm evenly matched with this Mantis Lord!"

Finally, on the seventh attempt, when Erxiao leaped high, dodged the spinning nail spear, and a vengeful spirit smashed into the mantis lord's body.

With the white light that flickered around the Mantis Lord, it fell!

"Awesome!"

"It's over!"

"Good, good! You're doing a great job! ”

Just as the audience in the live broadcast room was about to open the champagne with Er Xiao, the defeated mantis lord returned to his seat, as if he was asleep, bowing his head and closing his eyes.

And the remaining two praying mantis lords, who had been watching the play, suddenly appeared with weapons in their hands and jumped high from their seats!

In the end, Er Xiao only had time to jump up and struggle to the death, and died of hatred directly under the attack of the two mantis lords.

“？？？”

"! Two! How can there be! ”

"Two to one, it's right, there are many people who bully people and few people don't talk about martial arts!"

"What the hell are you looking at? There's a kind of heads-up! ”

"You think I'm a dick for you!"

"Heads-up!"

"There were three people sitting on the seats, but only the one in the middle came out to beat you, and they didn't say they wanted to fight you alone, laughing to death."

Not to mention the noise of the big guy opening champagne in the live broadcast room being interrupted, there was not much discouragement on Er Xiao's face.

Without saying a word, she hit the road again.

No matter what one praying mantis turns into two praying mantises, since she has decided to cut this guy under the horse, even if she turns into three praying mantis in the end, she will definitely not back down!

The frequency of attack of two praying mantis is obviously not comparable to that of one praying mantis.

Often, as soon as this one mantis finishes its sprint, the next mantis's stab will follow.

The rhythm of the whole battle is impenetrable, and the little knight is like a butterfly fluttering in the wind at the moment, and there is a danger of capsizing at any time.

But in the attack, Er Xiao's use of "lower splitting" has become more and more proficient.

Can you be proficient? When the two praying mantis are hedging, the high jump downstroke is the only chance to attack.

At this time, there were also viewers in the live broadcast room who came from other places to see Er Xiao challenging the three praying mantises, and they couldn't help but have a little bit of a showy idea.

"Anchor anchor, standing on the left side of the center of the column, when the two boomerangs overlap, the blood will be restored, and the collision volume will not be enough when you bow your head, this is the only chance to recover blood."

In this regard, Er Xiao is naturally as good as a stream.

And as the number of deaths here increased, more than two hours passed.

Looking at the little knight sitting in the chair, she suddenly stopped her operation.

"What? Gave up? ”

"It's just a little bit, Erxiao, don't be cowardly, I feel like it's almost over."

"Indeed, it feels like you've been able to dodge with your dodge skills very easily."

Er Xiao hooked the corners of his mouth and shook his head:

"It's coming, the anchor has decided to open a prize quiz, can the anchor beat the three praying mantis next time?"

"Actually, I feel that Er Xiaoli can just be a little bit worse than luck and feel, and there is no big problem with the technique, maybe the next one, or the next one."

"I'm sure to leave the brothers!"

"Left is full!"

The audience in the live broadcast room was also very enthusiastic.

Indeed, as the old brother above said, how this boss should be fought is also known in everyone's hearts.

All that's left is a little proficiency.

Maybe you can get through it this time, or maybe next time.

It's this kind of feeling that is valuable.

Seal the plate in one minute, and as expected, there are more people who can't press it.

Er Xiao took a deep breath, wiped his sweaty palms, and once again came to the residence of the three praying mantises.

As you have done countless times before, pull out the bone nails and face the challenge head-on.

There is nothing impassioned, what a temporary explosion.

It's like you've fought countless times before, you come and go, defend and fight back.

The way to defeat this boss has long been engraved in his brain and hands.

The first praying mantis is defeated, the first phase ends, the second phase begins, and the second praying mantis is defeated.

The barrage of "over" in the live broadcast room was full of excitement, and Erxiao's attention was not on that at all, she was just focused, staring at the challenge in front of her, and unswervingly tackling the tough problems.

Unpretentious jump, unpretentious down.

When the third mantis lord turned into white light under the little knight's bone spike and returned to his seat.

The three people who had been sleeping with their heads bowed suddenly got up in unison, and touched the little knight's chest with one hand, bowing their heads and saluting.

[Respect]

[Defeat Mantis Lord]

As the achievement of the steam platform in the lower right corner jumped out, an indescribable sense of accomplishment instantly surged into his heart, and Er Xiao exhaled, but he also felt a burst of emptiness.

That's it? And that's the end of it? A little more intensity!

She always had a feeling of unfinished, or rather, in her heart, she hoped that the three praying mantis would be able to get on together, and then she would continue to repeat the process of parkouring, swinging the knife, and being defeated.

But in the end, Er Xiao still spit out two words from his mouth:

"It's over!"

"It's !! over"

"Two hours of attacking, she really, I cried to death!"

"Erxiao, you can't give my brother a few knocks? I fought with you for two hours. ”

Everyone in the live broadcast room is also the same as the New Year, don't be excited.

The difficulty of the three praying mantis is obvious to everyone, and everyone understands the technology of Erxiao.

But seeing that Erxiao did not flinch, did not escape, and completely conquered the difficulties in front of him with his own efforts, it really made people feel unable to calm down for a long time.

"Brothers, don't talk about it, I want to play too, a few hairs in the clouds, just start playing by yourself!"

"I want to fight three praying mantises too! This battle is also too cool! ”

"Without the game life of three praying mantises, I can only say that it is incomplete."

After defeating the boss, it is natural to collect his loot, on the way back, Er Xiao carefully waited for the mantis warrior to give him a knife, but it bowed to our little knight.

[Respect]

It seemed that he had just completed the achievement of a hollow knight, but it was not until the mantis warrior bowed that everyone understood the meaning of respect for the representative.

Player, you have defeated the most powerful warrior of the Mantis Tribe with your own strength, and you have gained the respect of the entire Mantis Tribe!
