As long as you spend a bonus action to activate "Dexterity Action" and perform "Retreat", you can escape from the enemy safely and avoid attacks of opportunity.
Retreat to 10 feet away from the enemy, then turn around and launch a pounce for one round.
In the next round, continue to perform "dexterous movements" to retreat, turn around and pounce after widening the distance, and so on.
As long as the battlefield space is large enough, the tactical routines of "dexterous movements" and "swooping" can achieve miraculous results!
After all, Dimitri was once the king of the jungle who had experienced hundreds of battles. He had already mastered the hit-and-run tactics. Jiang Feng's guidance mainly boosted his self-confidence, which was what he needed most.
.
Encouraged by the "Inspirational Song", Dimitri, the Enlightenment Lion, finally plucked up the courage, roared and jumped into the cave, charging at the nearest bully monster.
After charging, it launches a "pounce", and the lion bites the bully monster's neck fiercely, then launches a "grab", tearing the prey in its mouth with a pair of strong and sharp lion claws.
The lion's bite, the base damage die is 2d6.
Two claws, base damage die 1d6.
The "Pounce" special effect is activated, the attack damage die of this round is doubled, one bite and two claws, the total damage die is 8d6!
Each attack also counts a Strength modifier of 6, and Power Attack provides a proficiency modifier of 2.
In this round of fierce attacks, Dimitri showed his former majesty as the King of Beasts, causing a total of 48 points of damage to the bully monsters, killing them instantly!
"Well done! Come on, coward!"
Ma Yun clapped her hands and cheered excitedly!
After winning the first battle and successfully destroying an enemy, Dimitri himself was very excited.
With the defense strengthened by magic, he withstood a counterattack by the other three bully monsters. He retreated according to Jiang Feng's instructions. He ran to the other side of the cave, suddenly turned around and pounced, biting another bully monster, and killed it cleanly.
shred.
Killing two bully monsters in two rounds, Dimitri has used his perfect performance to win the battle to overcome his inner demons.
The ensuing battle was uneventful.
Within a minute, the last two bully monsters fell under the lion's claws and decomposed into filthy smoke.
After killing four bully monsters, the lion felt better, but soon found that the curse on himself still existed, and his eyes couldn't help but dim.
Ma Yun took the opportunity to invite him to join the adventure team, go to the Emerald City together, and ask Master Oz to cast a spell to help him lift the curse.
Dimitri accepted her invitation without hesitation and decided to follow Miss Mage on adventures until he overcame his inner weakness and grew into a true warrior.
After successfully recruiting the Cowardly Lion into the team, Gao Fei and others did not receive the prompt to reach the plot milestone of this chapter. It seems that the main mission of this chapter has not been completed yet.
Everyone left the "House of Fear" and continued walking along the yellow brick path toward the depths of the jungle.
Dimitri led the way through the jungle. Lying in front of the adventure group were steep cliffs, and between the cliffs was a wide and turbulent river.
A single-plank bridge is erected at both ends of the cliff, forming the only way to cross the rapids.
It was already dark, and suddenly an owl-like scream came from the woods near the single-plank bridge. It echoed in the moonlit night sky and was extremely harsh.
"Calidas!" Dimitri looked at the direction where the scream came from, with a look of horror on his face, "We'd better not go any further, lest we alert Kalidas!"
"What does Kalidas look like?"
Ma Yun asked curiously.
"That's a strong monster, with a body like a brown bear and a head like an owl!" Dimitri gestured and said, "Kalidas's claws are long and sharp, and can easily tear me to pieces!"
Hearing his description, Jiang Feng couldn't help laughing.
"Hey! What's Kalidas? It's just an owlbear!"
"Sister Feng, have you seen this kind of monster in the game?" Ma Yun asked.
"I haven't seen it in the game, but I have seen it a lot in reality!"
"You said this is a big deal! Tiangong arranged for us to exercise in the game world. The main purpose is to make us familiar with the various monsters in the high-magic world. In the future, we will know how to deal with similar monsters in reality."
"But who would have thought that Gao Fei and I had already encountered owl bears when we were on duty in Jiuzhaigou, and now we have to refer to real-life experience to deal with similar monsters in the game. Is this... putting the cart before the horse?"
After hearing Jiang Feng's complaints, Gao Fei couldn't help but laugh.
"This wave is called 'Art Comes from Life'!"
Just when the two of them were sighing with emotion, the roars came from far away, and four monsters with bear bodies and owl heads rushed out from the forest and guarded the wooden bridge.
To persuade the owlbear to give up blocking the single-plank bridge, you need to pass a DC15 persuasion check.
"Calidas! Your master Ivanora is dead and you are free. There is no need to continue to stay here to monitor Dimitri. Get out of the way and don't block our way!"
Ma Yun shouted loudly to the owlbears guarding the bridge.
"Did the lobbying check succeed?" Gao Fei asked her in a low voice.
Ma Yun said nothing, her face full of embarrassment.
"Failed?"
"Big failure."
"I'll pinch you!" Gao Fei didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Okay, it seems that your luck has been exhausted today. If there is another test prompt next time, don't take action. We will do it instead."
Ma Yun's test die only rolled 1, and the consequences of a big failure were serious.
Instead of paying heed to her persuasion, the owlbears were enraged. They roared and rushed towards the single-plank bridge, clicking and slapping randomly, destroying the single-plank bridge in the blink of an eye.
"Good guy, it's so much fun now!" Gao Fei had a headache for a while, "Even if we kill these crazy owlbears, how to cross the river will still be a problem."
"We will consider the issue of crossing the river later. First, give these four stupid guys a good beating and make them angry!" Ma Yun's face was full of murderous intent.
Gao Fei saw that the owlbears were already rushing towards this side, he smiled helplessly, raised his hand and released an "Entangle Technique".
The grass on the bank of the river was overgrown with vines, which hindered the owlbear's footsteps.
Of course, Gao Fei knew that the owlbears were strong and the "Entangle Technique" could not trap them for a long time, so he cleared his throat, sang "Wild Wolf Disco", and tried to use "Ecstasy" in conjunction with the "Entangle Technique" to control them.
field.
It's a pity. I don't know whether it was Goofy's singing skills that were flawed or the "Iron Will" of the owlbears played a role. Only two of the four owlbears were controlled by "Ecstasy", while the other two still moved forward with red eyes.
rush.
Ma Yun raised her hand and shot a "flame arrow", igniting the owlbear at the forefront, causing black smoke to rise from its fluffy feathers.
The severe pain caused by the burns only strengthened the owlbear's fighting spirit. Even Jiang Feng's "taunt" couldn't stop it, and it roared and rushed straight towards Ma Yun.
