Chapter 43: The Darkness of Banishment [V.]
I ran to buy a ticket today, and I was tossing outside all day, and I started to code this chapter at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and I starved to death. Ask for recommended tickets and collections, give some motivation, dear! There may be a chapter in a while, but I'm not sure, I may have to go out to drink tonight, saying that it's to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in advance. hehe
When the four of them came to the high ground, they held their breath and hid behind a boulder, and Koria poked out half of his head to take a closer look, only to see a ripple in the turbid water of the lake, as if something had swam up from the bottom of the water. After a while, the water surface was covered with a dense layer of black shadows, and the four of them were too far apart to see what it was, but the uneasy aura became more and more intense.
August thought that this was not the way to go on after all, so he took out an illumination scroll, and when he was about to crush it, Coria grabbed his hand and whispered, "Don't die?"
Just as August wanted to defend a few words, a violent sound of water came from the deep pool, Coria glanced at it, and suddenly turned pale, and hurriedly pressed the fat bodies of Duke and Dylan, who were about to raise their heads, towards Auguste Nunu's mouth, and said intermittently: "Corpse Soul Python!"
Hearing these words, August was frightened, and hurriedly asked in a low voice, "Are you sure you read that right?"
"Look for yourself!" Coria moved back a little after speaking, Auguste leaned forward, leaned sideways to look at the deep pool, only to see that in the dense black shadows, a behemoth kept fluttering in the water, but what made Auguste heartbroken was that the big guy violently opened three pairs of wings composed of flesh membranes, and the upper body flew into the air, but the huge tail still couldn't leave the water, so it had to fly around the center of the lake, which looked a little funny.
But August had the idea of going to the grave at this time, tiptoed back to his body, and smiled bitterly at Coria: "It's indeed a corpse soul python, but it's a six-winged corpse soul python." "Said the whole person sat on the ground, dumbfounded.
Duke also knew that he had encountered something terrible, and asked softly, "What the hell is this six-winged corpse soul python dragon, it seems to be very powerful to listen to your tone." But no matter what, both of them are mid-level powerhouses, even if they can't win, it shouldn't be a problem to run away, right?"
"Ignorance is indeed the happiest thing!" Coria leaned against the rock and smiled bitterly, slightly loosening the hands that were holding Duke and Dylan, and continued: "Let's not talk about how powerful the six-winged corpse soul python is, just now around its dense circle of bone-eating fish, before reaching the high level, the defense of any profession can't resist their gnawing, just me and Auguste lost that puddle, in less than a minute, we can't find a single bone." It's the captain, you two have thicker meat, so you can let them nibble for a while. ”
After listening to Coria's words, Duke and Dylan leaned out to take a look, then sat down with pale faces and muttered, "I didn't expect to come out of the tiger's mouth, but I entered the dragon pool again." The two sighed bitterly, and sat down on the ground without speaking.
"What now?" asked Coria as she looked at Auguste.
"We can only wait, the six-winged corpse soul python dragon can't seem to leave the pool, so we have to wait for it to dive into the water, and then we can find another way out. August listened to the constant sound of slapping water in annoyance, and lost his temper.
"Whoever makes it out of here alive must ask the mercenary union to surround and suppress this monster. I have heard that the corpse soul python dragon will give birth to a pair of flesh wings in two hundred years, if the rumors are true, this big guy has lived for at least six hundred years, the corpse soul python is ferocious by nature, how many creatures have been harmed in more than six hundred years, it is scary to think about. Koria said in a deep voice.
"So many merchant groups have traveled back and forth to the Endless Forest countless times, and I have never heard anyone mention that there is such a huge underground cave under the Endless Forest. If I hadn't forced myself into the Endless Forest, I wouldn't have encountered such a thing, and after all, it was me who caused you two to suffer. Duke sighed and nodded apologetically to Coria and Auguste.
August waved his hand and said, "Commander, you don't have to blame yourself for this matter, since we were hired by the merchant group, the matter of life and death has already been seen." There is also one more thing that is imminent, and that is how to contact Cohen and them. In terms of the current situation, the Corpse Soul Python Dragon is an existence that the four of us cannot defeat, but when I rested just now, I found that this underground cave is vast and immense, and this deep pool seems to be very large, but compared to the underground cave, it is simply negligible. ”
At this time, everyone understood the meaning of this, if the deep pool was just a very ordinary waterhole in the underground cave, but there was such a powerful creature as the six-winged corpse soul python, it was hard to imagine what kind of terrifying creatures would emerge. All three of them felt a cool air rush overhead, and they hid quietly behind the boulder, silent.
August looked up at the top of the cave where the four people had fallen, which had already been tightly blocked by the earth, and a feeling of difficulty in moving an inch lingered in his heart. "It's better to recover your mental strength first, and I hope to contact Cohen as soon as possible!" Just as August closed his eyes and meditated, a sharp hiss instantly resounded through the underground cave, and the four of them got up to look at the six-winged corpse soul python dragon in the deep pool.
At this look, the four of them suddenly had a numb scalp, and they saw that the six-winged corpse soul python dragon was constantly flapping its huge tail, and its huge head was constantly sniffing around a pile of extinguished bonfires, raising its head from time to time and letting out a sharp scream.
"Did it find us?" said Duke, grappling Coria's left arm, in a trembling voice.
Suddenly, the six-winged corpse soul python dragon raised its head high in the direction where the four people were, and the bloody mouth burst out with a brilliant blue light, and then a biting cold air instantly blew around the deep pool, and pieces of ice slag suddenly floated on the water surface, and it didn't take long for the pool near the shore to become a piece of ice.
"Hell, it's a baptism of extreme cold, don't make a sound, the two captains must not make a sound, Koria and I will go and lure away this damn six-winged corpse soul python. August thought from his heart, and after a burst of azure light flickered around his body, more than a dozen arm-thick ice spikes surrounded him, and one arrow jumped onto the boulder, and the ice spikes that urged the valley with all his strength flew towards the eyes of the six-winged corpse soul python dragon like sharp arrows.
At this time, the six-winged corpse soul python happened to hold its head high, just in a defensive gap, and August happened to hit it crookedly at this moment, and an ice spike was deeply inserted into the left eye of the six-winged corpse soul python. This time it can stab the hornet's nest, the injured six-winged corpse soul python dragon rolled wildly in the deep pool in pain, and the baptism of extreme cold that was originally ready to be launched will spray out indiscriminately, and suddenly a bucket-like thick blue beam blasted towards the depths of the cave with lightning speed, wherever the blue light went, everything was wrapped in ice, and the next moment it directly turned into a sky of ice slag flying in the air.
Koriakou watched all this in amazement, thinking that the power of this baptism of extreme cold was too terrifying, and it was almost time for the cold winter hymn of the water system forbidden spell. If Auguste's ice spikes hadn't disrupted the direction of the six-winged corpse soul python's attack just now, maybe the four of them would have been part of the flying ice slag by now.
Taking advantage of this gap, Coria hurriedly blessed Auguste with the Wind Blast, and shouted: "Follow me!" The figure rose violently and rushed towards the depths of the underground cave, Auguste naturally understood Coria's thoughts, and didn't say much, glanced at Duke and Dylan, said "Take care", and gritted his teeth and followed.
At this time, the pain caused by the injury of the six-winged corpse soul python dragon gradually disappeared, and seeing the little insect that injured him was running at full speed, several figures gradually disappeared into the dark cave after taking off. The only remaining eye of the six-winged corpse soul python dragon flashed fiercely, and it opened its six fleshy wings violently, and its long body rushed out of the water, completely ignoring all obstacles, and twisting its body like a snake to chase after the two.
Koria and Auguste, who were rushing forward, heard the deafening collapse behind them, and both of them used all their strength to feed, but the distance between the six-winged corpse soul python and the two was gradually shrinking.
If this continues, even if the six-winged corpse soul python dragon does not attack the two, it will exhaust them to death. Immediately gritted his teeth, his body stopped suddenly, and after a little breathing, all his fighting energy exploded, and he shouted at Auguste: "I am holding this big guy, you must run out!"
Who knew that August also stopped, raised his hands and slowly urged the valley spiritual power, and countless magic arrays appeared around layer by layer. "Do you think we're going to run away, even if it's dead, I'm going to disgust this guy, hahaha!!" August suppressed the fear in his heart, and if he didn't work hard at this time, he really didn't even have a chance.
Coria smiled bitterly and said, "Damn, I didn't expect to die in such a place, I guess I can't even find all the bones." Then the steel teeth bited, constantly compressing the fighting energy on both fists.
In this level of confrontation, both of them understand that it is their limit to be able to shoot once, and if they don't use the kung fu at the bottom of the box at this time, it is estimated that they will die blindly. And not far away, the six-winged corpse soul python finally caught up, and the huge head opened violently in mid-air in the direction of the two of them for a while, and suddenly a series of air shock waves visible to the naked eye instantly broke through the speed of sound, mixed with a piercing sonic boom, and sprayed towards the two.
"Defense, it's a sonic boom shock bomb!!" Hearing Koria's shout, August did not hesitate to crush the only high-level defensive magic scroll, and a pitch-black ball of light instantly surrounded the two.
A moment later, a devastating impact easily penetrated the defensive enchantment and infiltrated it, Coria hurriedly pushed August behind him with one hand, and after the waist was half bowed to fix the figure, his arms tried his best to go towards the impact, releasing his fighting spirit to resist this shock wave, barely resisting this wave of attacks.
But as time passed, countless cracks gradually appeared on the inner wall of the ball of light. August injected his whole body's spiritual power into the defensive enchantment as if he was dying, but the spiritual power of the middle-level mage was tantamount to a drop in the bucket for the replenishment of the high-level magic circle, and he felt that his spiritual power was lacking and poured into the defensive enchantment, but he still couldn't stop the collapse of the defensive enchantment, and August finally couldn't suppress the fear in his heart, and roared madly to output all his mental power, making a trapped beast fight.
The six-winged corpse soul python was completely enraged by the black ball in front of him, and the prey that injured himself hid inside and resisted desperately, raising his head again, and another wave of sonic boom vibrators erupted.
After a crisp sound of "pop !!", the defensive barrier finally collapsed, Auguste and Coria were hit by this extremely powerful shockwave, and the two of them raised their heads and spewed out a stream of bloody arrows, and their bodies slammed into a boulder, under the weight of the terrifying shockwave, both of them were embedded in the boulder, and the only trace of sanity made both of them stare at a huge tail that flew out.
The two closed their eyes and greeted death.
