YM778.TV Chapter 144 - 144: Fighting to the Death
“Let’s go!”
Zhou Xiruo shouted and the Ice Thunder Horn Wolf immediately rushed into the distance. Liu Wenbo and the others reacted and hurriedly followed behind to escape crazily.
No one looked at the [Ice Corrosion Python] because it was useless for them to look.
In its calm state, the [Ice Corrosion Python] could still crush them. Now that it had fallen into the [Berserk State], the only thing they could do was run faster!
At the same time, Wang Xiao, who was in the air, also realized that something was wrong.
Compared to the people on the ground, Wang Xiao could feel the violent wind in the sky even more. The rapidly decreasing temperature would make the [Ice Corrosion Python] stronger. After its strength increased, it would trigger an even stronger hurricane!
To the [Ice Corrosion Python], this was undoubtedly a positive cycle, but to its enemies, this was the most despairing nightmare!
“Retreat! Retreat quickly!”
Without any hesitation, Wang Xiao immediately called for the [Dark Swamp
Crocodile Dragon] to retreat. It was pure luck that he could injure the [Ice Corrosion Python] just now, but it was impossible to always have good luck!
The eyes of the Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon flickered with surging battle intent. However, after hearing Wang Xiao’s order, it still flapped its wings and flew into the distance.
At this moment, Wang Xiao saw a few rapidly moving black spots on the ground. Although he was too far away and could not see clearly, he could recognize the Ice Thunder Horn Wolf running at the front at a glance!
By the standards of a single human or soldier, these “black spots” were already moving quite quickly.
However, when he saw the huge mountain-like body of the [Ice Corrosion Python], Wang Xiao only needed to make a simple calculation to know that they definitely could not escape the attack range of the [Ice Corrosion Python]!
After realizing this, Wang Xiao hurriedly stomped his feet and called out to the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon], “We can’t retreat! We can’t retreat! Go back quickly!”
The [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] turned around and looked at Wang Xiao. Although it could not speak, the confusion and disdain in its eyes couldn’t be more obvious.
Being despised by the mutated beast, Wang Xiao immediately felt a little embarrassed. However, he still pointed at the “black spot” on the ground and explained, “They’re too slow! We have to stall for time and wait for them to reach a safe area!”
The [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] raised its head and flapped its wings before flying towards the [Ice Corrosion Python].
Just as Wang Xiao was thinking about how to stall for time, he saw the [Ice Corrosion Python] staring fixedly at them, its remaining eye filled with resentment!
“Judging from this gaze… its hatred should have already exploded, right?”
Wang Xiao felt a chill on his back. Then, he saw the head of the [Ice Corrosion Python] flash. The place where the ice armor had been knocked off previously began to quickly freeze in the cold wind. However, it was not ice armor this time, but sharp light blue ice spikes!
[Ten Thousand Arrows]!
Wang Xiao instantly remembered the skill of the [Ice Corrosion Python] and his expression instantly turned ugly.
If this was an attack targeted at them, Wang Xiao and the [Dark Swamp
Crocodile Dragon] could still try their best to dodge. However, the [Ten Thousand Arrows] sounded like an area-of-effect attack, and it was a huge area-of-effect attack!
At this moment, the ice spikes on the head of the [Ice Corrosion Python] had already grown to about ten meters. Although it did not continue to grow, one could tell that the body of the [Ice Corrosion Python] had begun to tense up. This was clearly a sign that it was about to shoot!
The long-range attacks of soldiers were usually proportional to their size. Wang Xiao substituted the size of the [Ice Corrosion Python] into a few formulas and calculated before obtaining a number that made him despair.
Three kilometers.
This was the attack range of the [Ice Corrosion Python]’s ice spikes. Moreover, it was a conservative estimate. If Zhou Xiruo, Chen Xue, and the others wanted to ensure their safety, they had to be at least five kilometers away, and they had only run about two kilometers.
“I can’t block it… I definitely can’t block it…”
Wang Xiao felt despair, but he still gritted his teeth and forced himself to think.
At this moment, the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] suddenly flapped its wings and turned in the air, flying directly towards the back of the [Ice Corrosion Python]!
After a short moment of shock, Wang Xiao instantly reacted. The ice spikes of the [Ice Corrosion Python] only grew on its face, which meant that its attack range was only frontal.
If he could go to the back before the [Ten Thousand Arrows] was activated, he would naturally be safe. However, the problem was that Zhou Xiruo and the others were all in the front!
“Could it be that it wants to escape?”
A thought arose in Wang Xiao’s heart, but he immediately rejected it. The reason was very simple. The [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] was definitely not a coward!
However, if it was not trying to escape, what did the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] want to do?
As he thought to himself, Wang Xiao subconsciously looked behind the [Ice Corrosion Python] and discovered that other than broken ice, there was also a faint black thing.
“Is that… frozen soil?”
Wang Xiao was first stunned when he recognized the black thing. Then, he revealed a look of realization.
Just now, when the [Ice Corrosion Python] twisted in pain, it shattered the ice on the surface and sent the ice flying, so the frozen soil underground was revealed.
Seeing the frozen soil, Wang Xiao instantly understood the thoughts of the
Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon. He pointed at the frozen soil and shouted, “Bury it!”
The eyes of the Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon flashed, and the [Endless Swamp] was instantly activated!
Within a hundred meters, the frozen soil that was as hard as iron instantly softened into glue. Although it was not enough to completely devour the [Ice Corrosion Python], it was enough to affect its balance!
The solid ground suddenly softened, and the body of the [Ice Corrosion Python] immediately fell back. At the same time, [Ten Thousand Arrows] was completed. Countless huge ice spikes pierced into the sky like meteors!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Explosions tore through the air continuously. Although the Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon and Wang Xiao were at the side of the [Ice Corrosion
Python], there were still hundreds of ice spikes enveloping the two of them!
Without waiting for Wang Xiao’s order, the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] hurriedly dodged, but its wings were still instantly pierced seven to eight times!
Hot blood splattered down. Wang Xiao immediately took out the [Water of Life] and tore it apart!
As the green light shone down, a clear spring water quietly bloomed in this world of ice and snow. Within a thousand meters, the recovery speed of all soldiers was increased by 500%!
Seeing the wounds on the wings of the Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon begin to recover, Wang Xiao turned around to look at Zhou Xiruo and the others.
The appearance of the swamp made the [Ice Corrosion Python] lean back.
While its attack angle was raised, its attack range was also greatly reduced.
The furthest ice spike could only reach about two kilometers away when Zhou Xiruo and the others happened to cross this death line!
“Well done!”
Wang Xiao patted the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] with an excited expression. “When I go back this time, I’ll definitely praise you for three days and three nights!”
The Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon raised its head proudly. Just as it was about to flap its wings and leave, an air-piercing sound suddenly flashed over!
Wang Xiao turned around and saw an ice spike that was only two to three meters long rushing towards them. This ice spike was also surrounded by traces of cold air.. Although its size had shrunk a lot, its speed had increased by more than a hundred times!
