The elite manticore couldn't help raising its neck and neighing terribly.
The violent elemental flames raged around it, burning its flesh and blood. The hair on its body disappeared without a trace, and the exposed skin was covered with large and small blisters. Every time it burst, it burst into flames. Viscous blood flowed out.
The elite manticore, who had only completed one attack, spread its wings and exited the cave area in a panic, and ran to the depths of the smoke where no one could see, but the painful and mournful howling still came from afar.
Very hurt!
Really hurt!
Although the hit just now couldn't kill it, it still hurt it to the marrow, and it was impossible to recover its fighting power in a short time.
Taking advantage of the short interval between battles, the Howler frantically absorbed the earth elements from his feet, and compressed them into solid stones to repair his damaged body. And Greem also shot several lava fireballs one after another, blowing up the vicinity of the hole into a continuous sea of flames, trying to buy time for Growler to recover.
But the next wave of enemy attacks came soon.
This time it was no longer a self-harming flying collision, but two adult manticores flapping their bat wings, swinging away the lingering flames, grabbing the smooth stone wall and desperately attacking the howler.
Due to the limited location of the hole, it is impossible for them to open and close as fast as usual, but with their sharp claws and terrifying fangs, they still pose a considerable threat.
As for the attacks that Greem and the Rotten were desperately making in the rear, they had no choice but to rely on their protective force field and strong physique to endure the attack.
During their furious and ferocious attacks, the rock armor on the growler's body was almost scarred by another biting and scratching almost as soon as it was repaired. The Roarer's rocky body is composed of many stones, and the entire front is also horrible, with horrible cracks and penetrating claw marks everywhere.
The grade of the elemental crystal core used to build the Growler is still a bit low. Facing this group of manticores who are equally powerful in physique and strength, they still seem a little powerless.
This is also due to the fact that the Howler has a good group control skill, and he can launch an 'Earth Tremor' every once in a while, interrupting the attacking rhythm of the manticores and allowing himself a recovery time. And the rock armor it released can significantly enhance its own defense, which is why it was able to deal with this group of manticores for such a long time.
If it was replaced by a rotten person, it is estimated that if it can't last for three to five minutes, it will be directly blown up by the opponent!
But even so, when the two manticores retreated with many scars and replaced with two new manticores, the growler couldn't resist anymore.
Its newly condensed rock blocks were smashed, the summoned rock armor was scratched and exploded, and even its rock body was riddled with holes, and its core would soon be lost.
If the growler is allowed to be blown up by the manticores, I am afraid it will be very difficult to continue to block the enemy!
As a last resort, Greem could only let the growler back down temporarily to repair with all his strength, while he strode forward to block the path of the two manticores, while rapidly expanding his body.
Without hesitation, Greem performed Balrog Transformation, but did not unseal the Balrog's heart.
The appearance of the powerful Balrog undoubtedly tortured the two manticores crowded at the entrance of the cave. Although Greem after transforming into Balrog didn't have the huge strength and strong physique of the Howler, he couldn't hold back his many defenses against witchcraft.
His own flame body naturally has the protection of flames, and anyone who attacks him will inevitably suffer from flame retaliation. In addition to the body, there are lava shields and energy shields inspired by the Ion Stone, plus a wide range of flame barriers and high-temperature barriers... Even a stone man standing next to Greem will be roasted and collapsed. Not to mention flesh and blood.
While attacking the lava shield frantically, the two manticores gritted their teeth to withstand the lava fireballs that burst like bullets in Greem's hands. Their skins were scalded to pieces, and the flames, magma, and flames formed a huge furnace, which scorched them from the outside to the inside, making it miserable.
After barely breaking through the lava shield outside Greem's body, several wounds were dug out on his tall and strong body, and the two manticores that were about to be roasted escaped from the battlefield. And what replaced them was a terrifying manticore whose size was far beyond ordinary.
A terrifying and ferocious aura rushed towards his face. Even with Greem's power after transforming into a Balrog, he couldn't help but feel a little chill in his heart, and the hope of fighting faded away.
Manticore leader!
That male elite manticore!
Facing such a guy with transcendent strength, Greem didn't dare to hide his secrets at all.
The flames outside the body once again violently churned, the Balrog's heart continued to beat wildly, streams of pure flame energy rushed along the blood vessels to the limbs and bones. The color of the flame outside Greem's body instantly changed from scarlet red to deep purple, and a pure and pure evil twisting force spewed out together with the Abyss Fiendfire.
While burning the body, this flame also has the characteristic of consuming the soul, making it extremely sinister and terrifying!
The manticore leader stood proudly in the raging sea of flames, his powerful life force field distorted the space around him, protecting himself from the poison of the flames. Its majestic lion eyes stared at Greem for a moment, and there was both deep hatred and deep puzzlement inside, but more of it was the light of reason unique to intelligent creatures.
"Human, why did you invade our homeland? We have never hunted down any wizards!"
"Territory!" Facing such an enemy who was equal to him, Greem had no choice but to put away the pride of the wizards, and gave a real answer: "I need this territory! I need the volcano deep in the ground here energy!"
The manticore leader's eyes darkened, and he immediately knew that things were going to be difficult today!
As an underground monster, manticore cannot live without the special environment of the underground world.
Go deep underground, where there are more terrifying monsters, some terrifying monsters that even they dare not provoke.
Going to the surface, with the strength and difficult reproduction speed of manticores, they can't fight those surface monsters at all.
After all, only areas like the underground and shallow surface are the most suitable for them!
Leaving this familiar territory, they are likely to fall from the middle reaches of the Black Forest food chain to the lower reaches. At that time, it wasn't that they went out to hunt others leisurely, but they were hiding from other monsters to hunt and kill.
So the significance of this lair to the manticore family is self-evident!
And the only way to get them to give up this place is to step over its corpse.
Instantly understanding his situation, the Manticore leader no longer had any illusions about negotiations and transactions. With a violent roar, the manticore leader rushed towards the tall Balrog transformed by Greem.
Greem also rushed forward without showing any weakness.
But before pounced, he had already swallowed a bottle of witchcraft. This was Gargamel's potion specially prepared to restrain the manticore's paralyzing toxin.
Before the two sides came into contact, Greem pushed forward with both hands, and a huge pillar of flame with a thickness of one meter violently met the manticore leader. Relying on the life force field outside his body, the opponent resisted the flame flow, broke through the flame, and rushed to Greem.
歘歘歘…
The berserk lion's claws carried a trace of cold wind, and left deep scratches on the lava shield in front of Greem. And the long and flowing mane on the chest of the manticore leader was rolled by the terrible flames, and it was burnt into a bald mane in an instant.
Taking advantage of the stalemate with strength, the long scorpion tail behind the manticore leader suddenly thrust out, and the hook-shaped poisonous needles at the end of the limbs obviously have some kind of armor-piercing effect, and they even directly broke through the defense of the lava shield, deeply plunged into the flame body of the Balrog.
ah…
Aww...
The two adversaries uttered anguished mouths at the same time.
Greem felt a pain in his shoulder, and then became numb, and then he didn't feel anything. The terrifying paralyzing toxin has the ability to paralyze the consciousness of the soul, and Greem immediately felt that all aspects of his body were out of control.
It's slight, but it's real!
The manticore leader's painful howl is due to the fire damage received by the manticore poisonous needle. It felt as if he had plunged his scorpion tail into a terrifying super-hot lava of a volcano, and his scorpion tail, which was densely covered with spiritual nodes, would be cooked by the high temperature in the opponent's body in an instant.
Although it has tried its best to inject paralyzing poison into it, except for the slight stiffness of the body, the other party has not completely lost its resistance like the previous prey.
And it, the manticore leader, is completely under the double burning of the lava sea of fire and the flame barrier at this moment!
Even with its strength, it can't bear such terrifying fire damage.
Therefore, after struggling with Greem for more than a dozen fingers, the manticore leader took the initiative to retreat and regroup.
And this retreat just revealed how much damage the two suffered in the short encounter just now.
The lava shield outside Greem's transformed Balrog was completely shattered, and there were cracks all over his chest. Crimson magma spewed out from it, forming a small lake of lava on the ground.
After transforming into a Balrog, these are all the blood in Greem's body!
And Greem was miserable, and the leader of the manticore was no more famous than him.
It was like being thrown into a magma bath in the volcanic magma, the manticore leader was scalded by the flames and magma at this moment, and his flesh and blood were blurred. Looking all over its body, there is hardly an inch of skin that is still intact. There are scorched blisters and scorched marks everywhere, and the blood gushing out is directly vaporized by the high-temperature flames before landing.
If it wasn't for its 11 points of constitution and the talent of 'rapid regeneration', these injuries would probably be enough to make it withdraw from today's battle.
Just as the leader of the manticore opened a certain distance, ready to take a brief rest, and then launched a more ferocious assault with the help of bat wings, Greem not only did not take half a step back, but instead took the voodoo densely in his hand. , took the initiative to launch a new round of witchcraft attacks on the manticore leader.
Scarlet Flame Storm!
Fire nuclear meltdown!
Two consecutive violent fire-type witchcraft locked on each other in an instant, and swept away like a violent storm...
