The Rock-Armored Lion felt that the sudden appearance of Manado's team was more of a threat than Ren's, so he temporarily gave up on going underground and disappeared inexplicably, and his primary goal was to eliminate Manado and his men.
"Roar~~" With a roar, a red light appeared on the body of the rock-armored lion. A large number of nearby stones seemed to have lost gravity and floated one after another. They were attracted by it, covered around the body and merged into a set that looked extremely dense.
, rock armor with extremely high defense.
"It can only use rock armor. Swordsmen will line up with me, and archers will shoot it in both eyes!" Manado ordered loudly without any panic.
He has a deep understanding of this kind of monster, and because he can only defend against the magic "rock armor", he was named the Rock Armor Lion.
Rock-armored lions are born at the first level, and grow into the second level when they grow up. Therefore, the common rock-armored lions are all second-level monsters, and it is extremely rare to be able to break through the second level.
Unable to break through the ranks, the Rock Armored Lion can only use "Rock Armor" and cannot master new abilities.
Of course, the Rock Armored Lion itself has a very high defense, and using the "Rock Armor" makes it even harder. Unless it hits its vital points accurately, it will be difficult to injure it. And it itself is a predator, so its attack power is not weak.
The soldiers immediately obeyed Manado's instructions, the swordsmen followed him in formation and the archers prepared at the rear.
Manado also raised his sword and entered a fighting stance, staring intently at the rock-armored lion in front of him.
The rock-armored lion attacked first, charging towards Manado's team at an extremely fast speed.
"Whoosh!" The archers shot hurriedly, but they couldn't accurately hit the rock-armored lion's eyes because it ran too fast and dashed left and right in an S-shaped path. It was not easy to even hit its body, and occasionally arrows were fired.
Even if it hits, it will be blocked by its "rock armor".
The rock-armored lion rushed over quickly, threw down a swordsman in the front row, opened its mouth and bit him.
The swordsman was so frightened that he quickly raised his sword and stuck it in the mouth of the rock-armored lion, shouting for help.
The teammates nearby raised their swords to support and slashed at the rock-armored lion.
Sparks flew out, and the sharp sword blade could not break through the rock armor at all, but instead cut the curled blade.
The rock-armored lion roared, biting off the sword that was stuck in its mouth. Amidst the horrified screams of the downed soldier, it brutally bit his head into pieces.
"Get out of the way!!" Manado stepped forward angrily when he saw his subordinates being killed, "I told you to attack the key points, watch out!"
"Roar——!" The rock-armored lion looked up and saw the soldiers dispersed. Manado came towards them and roared to fight.
One man and one beast fought back and forth for several rounds. Manado seized the opportunity and stabbed the rock-armored lion in the left eye.
The injured rock-armored lion made a sound of pain, ran back some distance, turned back and roared angrily at Manado.
"See clearly?" Manado shouted to his subordinates, "Aim for its vital points, whether it's the eyeballs, throat or crotch. The rock armor cannot protect all parts. Don't be scared by it!"
"Yes!!" Although a teammate died, seeing Manado inflict heavy damage to the Rock-Armored Lion, the soldiers' confidence doubled and they followed Manado to approach the Rock-Armored Lion again.
"Roar——!" After being injured, the rock-armored lion seemed much more cautious. It no longer relied on its rock armor to attack head-on. Instead, it decisively distanced itself and ran around Manado and his men. It changed to surprise tactics, specifically
Attack soldiers who accidentally fall behind.
An archer who couldn't react was bitten by the rock-armored lion on his left leg and dragged away. Although his teammates rushed to rescue him, it was still a step too late.
The fighting was lively on the ground, but Lane and No. 1 were safe underground.
No. 1 lay down in the spacious basement, rubbing his head against Ren to express his intimacy.
Ren opened the virtual map, and the red dots representing the Rock Armored Lions and Manado teams moved quickly and crisscrossed back and forth. Through this, he could clearly grasp the situation.
As long as a hostile red dot suddenly disappears, you will know that someone has been bitten by a rock-armored lion.
He himself couldn't deal with the rock-armored lion, and he was no match for Manado. Of course, it was more comfortable to watch the fierce battle between the two sides.
Although the Rock Armored Lion is powerful, the chance of winning against Manado and his men is not high.
It is only a second-level monster. If Manado can be the general of the Baron Palace, he must have some strength, not to mention the strength in numbers?
Of course, with the rock armored lion's amazing defense and powerful hunting ability, it will not sit still and wait for death. Even if Manado's team wins in the end, it will definitely be reduced by more than half. It can be confirmed from the current battle situation that Manado's team has sacrificed two people.
The final result must be that Manado's team kills the rock-armored lion and helps him complete his mission.
There are two consequences. One is that the Manado team, which suffered a tragic victory, was deceived by its own trap and went to check the scarecrow and fell into it. The other is that the opponent was not deceived, but did not know that it was under their feet, so the search could only leave, and so on.
Come out on your own after he leaves.
So what we can do now is to cheer for the Rock Armored Lion, hoping that it can kill more soldiers and severely damage Manado's team.
The battle was fierce above, with the Rock Armored Lion and Manado's teams trying their best to fight to the death; below, Ren silently cheered for the Rock Armored Lion. As long as he saw the hostile red dot representing Manado's men disappear, he couldn't help but
Celebrate secretly.
Although the Rock Armored Lion has strong defense and good combat power, it is still a low-level monster.
There was a long stalemate with Manado's team, and five soldiers were killed in a surprise attack. In the end, they bled too much and were defeated by the opponent due to lack of physical strength.
Manado stabbed it to death with his own hands, ending the monster.
The materials on the second-level monster are worth a little money, and they can also be obtained from the Adventurer's Association in exchange for bounties. However, Manado had a mission and went straight to the lair without disposing of its body.
The soldiers followed behind, keeping alert for fear of a second monster coming out.
When Ren saw the hostile red dot representing the rock-armored lion disappear on the virtual map, he knew the battle was over. He waited for Manado and the soldiers to walk to the trap area and quietly dig out a step leading to the ground.
Manado looked at "Ren's body" near the nest, always paying attention to his surroundings, approaching step by step, but ignoring his steps.
After all, he couldn't imagine who could dig a trap near the rock-armored lion's lair? He didn't know that there would be an alien like Renn who could use the system's functions to prepare such a large trap in a short period of time.
It was even more unexpected that Ren could hide underground and make a scarecrow to lure him in advance.
Because of the battle with the rock-armored lion, Manado's subordinates did not dare to stay too far away from him. After all, five of their companions died and they were afraid of being left alone.
The results can be imagined!
The team keeps moving forward, and once they step into the trap area, no one can stop them.
Everyone falls into the trap and no one is spared!
The bottom of the trap was filled with wooden thorns placed by Ren in advance. If he was unlucky, it would penetrate his body and kill him on the spot.
Those who were lucky enough to avoid the critical point were actually miserable. For example, Manado himself had both legs pierced. He stood on a wooden thorn unable to move and could only keep wailing.
