Chapter 119: Lion's Roar
A huge beast slowly walked out of the cave, and it turned out to be the legendary flaming lion. When it saw Joshua coming, it immediately raised its head at him, opened the lion's mouth to the maximum, and made a strange "roar" sound, which made people tremble to watch.
"Goddess of Light, what kind of monster is this!" Joshua was taken aback, "he looks like a lion, but his hair is red, and his size is much larger than that of a normal lion." ”
Joshua's hands gripped the sword tightly. The Flaming Lion let out a powerful roar and rushed in Joshua's direction. Seeing this, Joshua hurriedly gathered his fighting energy on the sword and slashed it in the direction of the giant lion: "Take it, this is the Holy Light Knight Slash that Uncle Geraint taught me!" But he didn't expect that its head was still fiery red and shiny, and it didn't leave the slightest trace on its body, which surprised him.
Although the Flame Lion was not injured, it had been completely enraged by Joshua's provocation just now!"Roar!" A thunderous lion roar echoed through the second floor of the Flame Temple, and Joshua suddenly felt like the ground was shaking, and every now and then a broken stone slid down the mountain wall. Joshua's eyes were fixed on the lion's every move, and the flaming lion had opened its bloody jaws ready to deliver a fatal blow to Joshua.
The two sharp fangs on the side of the flaming lion's mouth were exposed, and a stream of red flames erupted from his mouth, surging towards Joshua with a fierce momentum, seeing that this posture meant to roast Joshua with fire first, and then swallow it in one gulp.
Naturally, Joshua would not stay stupidly and let these extremely hot flames burn on his body. Joshua stimulated the fighting energy in his body to form a barrier of holy light, and the blazing flames continued to impact the barrier, and the flames flew around the barrier to refract dazzling light. Joshua felt the impact of the flames, and immediately retreated a few minutes faster than the flames, then turned and ran away the way he came, as if he was about to flee for fear of the fierceness of the flaming lion.
The flaming lion naturally refused to let Joshua go lightly, and its strong limbs swung with a very fast wave, and its body chased after it like a raging flame, and its speed was no less than that of Joshua who was running wildly. This surprised Joshua, who glanced back, and hurriedly quickened his pace again before he threw the flaming lion a certain distance away, temporarily staying at the length of the two flaming lions.
The flaming lion let out a loud and strange cry, and followed closely without hesitation. The flaming lion in the realm here had already walked countless times, and was naturally much more familiar with Joshua, so in less than a moment, he actually caught up with him, and he could clearly see Joshua's back.
The Flame Lion's head seemed to show a happy expression, and its limbs swung even faster, and it rushed forward viciously!
With a "bang", several more fighting qi shot out from Joshua's sword, but they were quickly jumped away by the flaming lion, which made Joshua stunned for a moment.
"It's amazing! My fighting spirit can barely kill it! Its mane can bounce off all the damage~" Joshua thought to himself, if it was just a small trick, it would really take a lot of effort to clean up this flaming lion.
The flaming lion under attack became more and more frenzied, chasing Joshua incessantly.
Joshua ran around on the second floor of the temple, but probably because he hadn't seen a living person for a long time, the flaming lion was so energetic that he still chased after it, and Joshua thought that he would not be able to get rid of it for a while. So he frowned, made a quick stop, jumped, and flashed from the head of the flaming lion with great speed. He grasped his sword in both hands and aimed it at the head of the flaming lion, slashing it down with his head and face.
The flaming lion quickly stopped, abandoned the lion's head, and yelled at Joshua. The roar was deafening, and Joshua felt a powerful air current sweeping towards him. Joshua's hands were still holding the sword, but due to the effect of the air current, his body could not take a single step in the air, and as the sound approached, Joshua's whole body was catapulted out.
When the lion saw that Joshua had fallen to the ground, he quickly ran in that direction. Joshua felt that all his bones were about to fall apart from the lion's roar, and he reluctantly sat up from the ground, touched his waist, and shouted, "I thought this guy could only breathe fire......
Joshua stretched, seemingly unaware of the danger that was imminent. As soon as he looked up, he saw two claws pounce on him.
"Lord Arthur, what would happen if you were photographed by this lion? The Flame Lion is much larger than a normal lion. Ordinary people are basically done when they are photographed by ordinary lions, but if they are photographed by this flaming lion...... "Geraint flew the "Bishop" diagonally three squares.
"Rest assured, this flaming lion is only a matter of the gods' experience. If you are photographed by it, you will faint at most, and if you are swallowed alive by it, you may enter another dimension. The flaming lion has an enchantment laid down by the gods in its body, and once it falls into the lion's mouth, Joshua may have to go through some other trials before coming out of it!"
"I wonder where anyone who is swallowed by the Flame Lion will emerge after passing the test of the enchantment?" asked Geraint.
"Uh...... Well......" Arthur had a wicked smile on his face, "since it was eaten, of course it had to come out of the excrement mouth......"
"Uh! Joshua wants you to be able to pass this test. Don't fall into the belly of that lion and put it through any other test!" Gerante shook his head, "It's not a glorious thing for a prince, our future king, to be sent out of the excrement of a wild beast!"
Joshua quickly rolled over in the face of the lion's pounce, dodging the lion's claw. The violent vibration of the flaming lion's forehand as it touched the ground reverberated through the second floor of the temple. Although Joshua had never seen many magical beasts in his life, he thought to himself that this giant lion must be the top existence of magical beasts, otherwise it would not be possible to test the warriors who came to the trial as a single level in the Flame Temple.
At this moment, Joshua rolled on the ground a dozen times in a row, and the flaming lion pressed forward step by step, constantly pounceing on him.
"Uh...... Isn't there anything flawed about this flaming lion?" Gerant, picking up a chess piece, a little undecided.
"Flawed?" said Arthur after a moment's thought, "Some of the brave men I've met seem to have basically relied on overwhelming strength or magic to solve battles. If you want to say that there is a flaw, then I can only think of one ......"
Joshua rolled all the way to the corner, and seeing that he had no way back, the flaming lion pounced on Joshua with another fierce leap. Joshua had an idea, and hurriedly rolled in the direction of the male lion, and rushed out from under the male lion. Due to the large size of the male lion, it could not stop after taking off, and its whole body hit the rock wall hard. Joshua suddenly felt the entire floor shake violently, and from time to time some rubble fell.
"Roar!" the Flame Lion, probably sensing the pain, let out another terrible roar, and Joshua felt his ears deaf.
However, at this time, Joshua suddenly found a good opportunity, and when the male lion turned his back to him, he quickly raised his sword and jumped high and slashed at the back of the giant lion.
The Flame Lion noticed that Joshua was attacking him from behind, and quickly twisted his body to let out another roar at Joshua who was soaring in midair.
"Oh, why is this trick again?" Joshua was blocked by the strong air flow brought by the lion's roar again, but fortunately this time he had prepared in advance to open the fighting qi barrier first, so he was not bounced out.
"I'm so tired, this monster is so hard to deal with!" Joshua's feet were already on the ground. By this time, the Flame Lion had turned his whole body around and faced Joshua with a fierce expression.
