Chapter 55: The Humanoid Spider Demon

Leo's heart was shocked, but he quickly reacted that it couldn't be Charlene who wanted to attack him.

Because it didn't do her any good, and on the contrary, if she was killed, she wouldn't be able to escape.

What's more, although the thunderstorm technique is powerful, it is only level 5 after all, and it is completely fatal to resist it with all your might. Unless she fires multiple balls in a row to completely penetrate the defenses, she will have a chance to succeed.

However, for a level 4 mage, casting three electric balls in a row should already reach the limit.

But why did she do it?

There was only one possibility, she wanted to attack something, and it wasn't far away, and it was dangerous, so she had to risk attacking!

Leo's head spun rapidly, and he understood these contents in an instant, so even though he sensed the danger, he still stood calmly and did not move. All he can do now is to trust Charlene's control, otherwise if he moves, he will not only disrupt her purpose, but also take the initiative to bump into danger.

The electric ball is getting closer and closer, and sure enough, it is not coming towards Leo.

However, despite some deviations in the trajectory, it is still possible for the electric tentacles to hit themselves, and considering the possible danger, Leo still casts an energy shield as fast as he can.

The next moment, with the explosion of "Zilala", the electric ball flew five meters from Leo's left side.

It's a relatively safe distance, but there are still a lot of electric tentacles hitting the energy shield.

Almost at the same time, a piercing scream rang out. Leo kept squinting his eyes to track his trajectory because he was worried about the electric ball hurting him, and when he heard the scream, a distorted figure quickly became clear in his sight.

It seemed to be a spider demon, but the difference was quite large, and it even resembled a humanoid creature. It walks upright with two recurved legs, and three pairs of legs grow on two sides of the body

Side. The height is similar to that of himself. In addition to this, its upper body is very similar to that of a human, with a torso, neck, and head.

What surprised Leo the most was that its entire face was completely different from that of the spider demon, but a human woman's face, and it was not ugly at all, but very beautiful!

"What kind of monster is this!?" Leo was surprised, and without thinking, he recited the spell and cast a fireball spell.

As soon as he came up, he chose the most powerful way to attack. I was secretly glad in my heart. I didn't notice the existence of this guy at all just now, which shows that his stealth ability is very strong, and he can easily avoid his own mental power detection. If it weren't for Charlene's use of the magic array to discover its existence, looking at the first pair of arthropods that were as sharp as a blade, once she was sneak attacked, she would inevitably suffer a big loss.

Due to the close distance, the fireball reached the strange spider demon in the blink of an eye.

"Bang!" the fireball exploded, causing a raging flame to engulf the spider demon.

But Leo didn't let his guard down. He didn't know if this spider demon had arrived with those dead spider demons and mothmen, but he could see that its rank was definitely much higher and its strength was much stronger. Maybe a fireball won't solve. And it's not as afraid of lightning as normal spiders.

It's just that the explosion of the fireball technique will produce strong magic fluctuations, which will seriously affect the perception of mental power, so Leo can only observe it with the naked eye. After a few breaths, the glow of the fireball technique gradually faded. Leo suddenly found that the firelight was empty, and the strange spider demon was gone.

Leo's heart was beating wildly again. Barely thinking about it, he quickly stepped back. At that moment, a dark red arthropod appeared out of thin air, stabbing straight out.

The sound of breaking the sky sounded like a sharp arrow.

Although it was impossible to see how it managed to achieve such perfect concealment and easily resist the damage of the fireball technique, Leo had no doubt that if his movements were half a second, he would be pierced by the arthropod, or teleported directly back to the academy under the protection of the nameplate.

He was not one to sit still, and as he uttered a low incantation, an electron beam mixed with countless electric lights burst out, hitting the spider demon's body that had not yet emerged.

With the sound of "crackling" electric shocks, the stealth ability was destroyed, and the entire body of the spider demon emerged, and the chest was blackened by electricity.

Seeing this scene, Leo couldn't help but be even more surprised. He couldn't know much about his electromagnetic field enchantment, it was the convergence of many currents, and the voltage intensity was very considerable, and it would be difficult for ordinary level 3 warriors to resist.

But the spider demon in front of him seemed to have only suffered a slight injury, but it did not hurt the root.

This is a spider demon he doesn't know anything about, and it's an enemy he's never seen before!

At the moment, the distance between the two is less than 5 meters. The spider demon's human-like face appeared hideous, and his eyes were full of hatred, and he opened his mouth, revealing sharp teeth, and screamed, "Die! monster!"

Hearing that it actually spoke the lingua franca and called itself a monster, Leo was stunned.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the spider demon stepped forward and entered the attack range again.

"Damn, what the hell is this?" Leo subconsciously wanted to use the flashing spell to get out of the battle and return to the magic tower, but when he could say the two-syllable incantation, he forcibly stopped.

There is no doubt that this spider demon is very special, and may even have something to do with humans, after all, this is the first time he has seen a humanoid since he came here. Although moths are called people, they are actually very different.

God knows what the consequences would be if it were chased into the magic tower, but the more likely outcome would be, it would simply choose to leave and continue towards the forest.

And neither of these results is what Leo wants to see, because the bearded man deliberately emphasized that he should try not to let the creatures of the north get close to the magic tower, let alone let them pass through the defense line. Even if it doesn't have any chance of posing a threat to Fort Khorst, it will definitely have a lot of points deducted, so it must not retreat now!

The distance was already too close, and Leo was worried that the "Elemental Impermanence" that had been cast for a long time would not be successful, and the effects of other low-level magic were mostly not ideal, so he could only draw the arcane sword and sweep sideways to resist the enemy's attack.

"Ding!" a crisp metal clash sounded. The incomparably sharp arcane sword only left a shallow white mark on the spider demon's first pair of arthropods.

Fortunately, under such an influence, the direction of the arthropod also deviated, which did not pose a threat to him.

"So hard?" Leo moved his aching wrist, secretly pondering a countermeasure.

This spider demon has super high resistance to lightning, and its resistance to fire is even more terrifying, which can be seen from the fact that it can also be invisible in the effect of fireball. And now, its shell is as hard as metal, and it really makes Leo feel like he has no place to put his mouth.

There is no way. Leo had no choice but to choose a control spell to restrain the opponent first, and then look for another way to attack.

But before he could recite the incantation, the spider demon suddenly disappeared from the spot.

This disappearance is so complete that not only can it not be detected visually, but it is also impossible to perceive mental power.

"It's really difficult...... Leo smiled bitterly in his heart, and hurriedly replenished his energy shield, ready to meet the enemy's surprise attack at any time.

At this time, Charlene's voice suddenly sounded in her ears: "Be careful." It's on your left!"

Hearing the prompt, Leo didn't have time to figure out how Charlene transmitted the voice, and hurriedly dodged to the right.

"Huh!"

Sharp arthropods appear out of thin air, stabbing into the air. It was then quickly retracted and vanished again.

"Flash back!Don't keep pestering it!This monster is terrifying!" Charlene's voice came directly again.

Leo pondered for a moment and already understood that she must have transmitted the voice directly to herself through the magic array. And in this way, with her help, there is no need to worry about the sneak attack of the spider demon.

"No, I can't. If I return, it doesn't know what it will do!I can't let it break through the lines!" Leo said loudly, believing Charlene could hear it.

Sure enough, Charlene did hear it, and quickly said, "Okay, watch your back!"

Leo lunged forward without thinking, and the terrible arthropod fell through the air once again.

After several failed attacks, the spider demon let out a roar of frustration, but still did not show its form and did not continue to attack.

After waiting for a few seconds, and there was no movement, Leo had to ask, "Where is it?"

"It's five metres to your right and looking for opportunities. Charlene replied, "Are you sure you want to do this?

Since the spider demon certainly couldn't hear Charlene's voice, Leo acted as if he didn't notice it, let the other party down his guard, and said in the dialect of the Calente Empire, which was very different from the lingua franca, "I can only do this! Help me, we can defeat it!"

Charlene also knew that the current situation was not to be thought about, and quickly agreed with Leo's opinion and asked, "How can I help you?"

Instead of answering, Leo asked, "How are you doing now, how many magic cannons can you fire?"

Charlene hurriedly replied, "I'm almost recovered, and I can inspire twice!"

"Twice, that should be enough!" Leo said confidently, "help me monitor its location, I'll find a chance to control it in a moment, you should have a few seconds to lock it." ”

As soon as the words fell, Charlene's warning came: "It's going to attack!"

Leo's face was silent, but he was actually waiting with full attention.

Half a second later, the arthropod appeared, almost as fast as a phantom.

Charlene in the magic tower in the distance was horrified to find that this time Leo didn't dodge!

"Hide!" she screamed.

However, Leo seemed to froze and let the arthropod stab.

The distance of a few meters was fleeting, and Charlene watched as the arthropod broke through the energy shield on the periphery of Leo's body and continued to stab inside, perhaps about to burst with blood.

At this time, Leo's body suddenly twisted, and he raised his arms.

Under the influence of the energy shield, the arthropod's assassination speed slowed down a lot, and it was given up by Leo in the millimeter, right in the armpit.

Immediately afterward, Leo's arms went down and successfully clamped the arthroper.

The "Magic Weapon" and the "Red Dragon Bloodline" played a role at the same time, and under the sudden frenzied force, the spider demon was pulled by Leo and stumbled, and his body was forcibly taken out of the invisible state.

Leo spat out a few syllables quickly, and a cloud of cobwebs created by magical power covered the spider demon's body, sticking it to the ground.

This series of actions only took a very short time, not to mention that Charlene did not expect it, even the spider demon did not react, and it was only when Leo quickly retreated that it remembered to struggle to break free from the cobweb.

After all, the level of spider web magic is too low to withstand the power of the spider demon, but of course Leo can't break free from it, and while running, another magic is also cast.

After the longer incantation was reitted, several chains made of pure magical energy had bound the spider demon to the ground.

No matter how slow Charlene is, she knows what to do at this time. With all her might, she continuously activated the magic cannon, and two dazzling electric balls suddenly erupted, attacking the spider demon who was temporarily unable to move.

In just the blink of an eye, the electric ball has already hit the spider demon, Leo is not at ease, and adds another fire, which is the most powerful "flame funeral" of all his attack magic!

"Boom!"

The violent explosion of electric balls and flames at the same time almost lit up the night sky for a few minutes, and Rio had to squint his eyes and give up admiring the magnificent mushroom cloud.

After a while, Charlene said weakly: "Come back, it has receded." ”

Using the magic cannon twice in a row has reduced her already modest mental power a lot again, and the pressure on her soul is also quite large.

"Retreated, you mean, it's not dead?" Leo asked incredulously. Under such an attack, I'm afraid that even high-level warriors will have no bones left, and that spider demon is not only not dead, but still has the strength to retreat?

"It's not dead, but it's probably badly hurt. "Charlene passed through the magic array, and the situation she observed was naturally many times clearer than Leo's.

"What a ...... Monster ......" Leo shook his head, no longer wondering what it was, and turned and ran towards the magic tower. Now Charlene urgently needs to rest, so she must take over the magic array by herself, and if a large number of creatures attack at this time, it will be troublesome.

Luckily, until Leo returned to the Magic Tower, it was still quiet, except for the pile of corpses still burning, crackling and popping from time to time.

Seeing Leo return safely, Charlene finally breathed a sigh of relief, but she still had palpitations and said, "What the hell is that, it's too powerful." (To be continued.) )
