Almost as soon as they smelled the stench of corpses, the two knights realized the danger.
However, before they could rush out of the creek, a terrifying black torrent of insects emerged from the knee-deep grass nearby.
How could Thoros, who had been dealing with evil insects for a long time, not know that these group of insects were not ordinary mutated insects, but carrion beetle larvae poured out by the insect demon with human flesh and blood. Although they were not big in size, their carapace was strong.
The speed is comparable to a finger-thick metal armor.
Although such hardness is not enough to prevent him from cutting them to the ground with one sword strike, like chopping melons and vegetables. However, facing the constant number of opponents, even Soros has the strength to crush them, and it is difficult to resist the beetles.
A flood of attacks.
The larvae of scavenging beetles may not have any special means of attack, and their armor and poisonous mouth alone are enough.
They eat rotten flesh and blood all year round, so their saliva is naturally poisonous. After being bitten and scratched by their terrifying large claws and serrated mouthparts, the toxins will adhere to the wound, causing the flesh and blood to fester.
, the wound cannot heal.
Therefore, being besieged by a group of fist-sized beetles with steel-like carapace and poisonous attacks, even the Radiant Knights could not protect themselves.
As for the already scarred Spell-Breaking Knight Sim, after hacking to death more than a dozen beetle larvae, his body was swamped by the swarming insects, leaving only a squirming pile of humanoid insects in place.
.
Stab...
Dazzling bright fluorescence burst out from the body of the Radiant Knight Thoros, and in the violent burst of energy, the beetle larvae gathered around him were blown away.
A strong and almost terrifying energy wave storm gathered on his rune sword, but when the violent sword attack was ready to go off, he hesitated instinctively.
With this strike of the sword, the dense insect swarm would certainly suffer heavy losses, but Sim, who was surrounded by the insect swarm, could not even hope to survive.
However, during such a moment of hesitation, he felt a severe stinging pain in his lower limbs. The beetle larvae that surrounded him again had bitten through the steel boots and pierced his calf with their pincers.
At the same time, a small energy storm broke out in the insect pile.
Amid the swarms of insects, broken insect limbs and disgusting insect juice filled the horizon...
Spellbreaker Knight Sim roared and crawled out of the insect pile.
The violent breath of energy flowed, and Sim shouted loudly, grabbed a beetle in each hand, and crushed them to pieces!
Soros was first surprised and then delighted, and shouted: "Come here quickly, I will take you out of the encirclement!"
"Leave me alone..." A sharp look flashed across Sim's rough face: "Sir, attack quickly! Don't mind me, I... I can't do it anymore..."
Thoros was slightly stunned, but when his eyes fell on Sim, he was instantly relieved.
On the burly Sim's body, bulges were moving quickly under the skin in places that the metal armor could not cover.
Some beetles had suddenly penetrated into his body, gnawing at his flesh and blood like crazy.
Looking at Thoros, who had an unbearable look on his face, the violent energy aura on Sim's body became more and more violent.
"Sir, I'm going to take the first step!"
Sim roared miserably and finally blew himself up!
The violent explosive air wave swept through a vast space of nearly twenty meters, carrying fragments of bones and flesh and blood full of energy.
Countless beetles were beaten with holes and were left in a mess.
Although the carapace of the beetles a little further away was not penetrated, they were swept over by the violent shock wave, and their fragile organs and brains were turned into bloody paste by the force of the sound, and they also crawled to death one after another.
With just this one blow, nearly a hundred carrion beetle larvae were pulled to death by Simu!
"Sim..."
Witnessing this scene, Thoros, the glorious knight, was so angry that he almost burst into tears, and he did not hesitate to strike a violent blow that had been prepared for a long time.
The next second, an even more violent and ferocious energy storm broke out among the swarm of insects!
The egg-shaped impact air wave wrapped around countless black beetles and swept in all directions, destroying everything it passed, and no one could stop it.
And this blow also fully demonstrated the violent side of the terrifying attack of the Level 2 Glory Knight.
Although there are not as many knight-like professions as spellcasters, and they are not as flexible in long-range attacks. But when it comes to the energy concentration of short-range attacks, wizards cannot even hope to catch up with knights' defense-breaking and capsule-penetrating abilities even if they ride horses.
After all, most of the energy gathered by the wizards comes from the free elemental energy in the space. Although the power is powerful, it is somewhat scattered. However, the power exploded by the knights comes from their bodies. They can completely control this energy, like an arm.
Use your fingers.
Therefore, at the same level, once an elemental wizard is approached by a knight, it basically indicates that he is not far from defeat and death. One of the main reasons why blood wizards are highly respected is that they can reach both distance and close range.
The fighting ability is not weaker than long-range attacks.
This leaves them with almost no obvious weaknesses!
Such a violent and ferocious blow would not have been possible even with Soros's strength.
In the past, they had ample support from magic crystals. Once they exhausted the energy in their rune weapons, they could just find an opportunity to replace the energy crystals. But now that they have become homeless dogs, where are the opportunities and ways to obtain new magic crystals?
Replenish?
So after using his own reserves to deliver this earth-shattering blow, Soros's legs weakened and he almost fell to his knees.
At this moment, strange sounds could be heard in the grass far away outside.
Huge beetles with black armor, green wings, and corpse spots on their backs flapped their wings and flew slowly over from a distance.
Damn it, it's a real carrion beetle!
Swipe...
Two bright energy blades came out from the sword, knocking the two carrion beetles at the head somersaulting several times in the air. But when they flapped their insect wings and readjusted their posture, nothing could be seen on the black carapace.
Too obvious scars.
Damn, these beetles are tougher than ever!
With the strength of Thoros, the radiant knight, the two sword attacks just now had an energy attack intensity of fifty or sixty degrees at least. But these beetles actually withstood it without changing their expressions, which could not help but make his expression change.
It becomes more and more ugly.
Fortunately, these carrion beetles do not move very fast. Before they can form an absolute number, it is still difficult to surround and kill a level 2 radiant knight.
Thoros did not dare to stay here for a long time. The surging energy aura gathered behind him, forming a pair of bright and dazzling wings of light. With the assistance of the wings of light, he sprinted forward quickly, getting faster and faster.
The higher you run, the more likely you are to fly in the air.
This is a kind of combat ability that the Radiant Knight has studied and figured out after being exposed to rune energy for a long time.
But in the final analysis, it is just a special use of rune energy!
Seeing the figure of Thoros, the glorious knight, flying in the air and about to break out of the insect siege, a black shadow as fast as lightning suddenly flew into the sky and collided with him.
Boom...
With a muffled sound and an invisible shock wave, the wings of light behind Soros suddenly disappeared, and he fell crookedly.
Along with him, there was that mysterious black shadow.
In the collision just now, Thoros's entire body was wrapped in thick armor and energy. In addition, the flying speed was so fast, one can imagine the impact suffered by the black shadow that collided with him.
.
The black shadow fell into a bush.
When 'he' stood up crookedly, black spots were falling down from the surface of countless black beetles' condensed bodies.
In fact, those were not black spots, but dead beetles one by one.
Even the evil insect Entik was not damaged at all by the impact just now!
Seeing that the main messenger behind the black insect tide finally showed up, Thoros, who was still spinning, roared angrily, and the sharp energy blades slashed at Entik's insect body crazily.
Three carrion beetles fluttered their wings and flew over, blocking in front of Entik, resisting all attacks with their black carapace as strong as heavy armor.
But before they could adjust their bodies, Thoros had already pounced on them quickly. The rune sword in his hand, which was as bright as a lightsaber, flashed continuously and penetrated directly from their wide mouthparts, shaking their internal organs into a pile.
Blood sauce.
Although the carrion beetle's body is strong, its body cannot be as tough. Therefore, when faced with the long sword piercing with such concentrated power, Thoros quickly killed almost one by one with one sword.
Seeing that three carefully cultivated carrion beetles were killed, the scorpion beetle Entik stood up unsteadily, opened its mouth and let out a sharp insect hiss at Thoros. For a time, countless scorpions sprayed out from its mouth,
Hit the opponent head-on and face-to-face.
Thoros swung his sword, and the violent energy blade no longer separated from the body, but attached to the rune sword, instantly protecting the front of his body.
All the scorpions that hit his blade storm instantly disintegrated into pieces, and the smelly purple-black insect juice splashed everywhere.
And he, while waving his long sword to resist the endless insect attacks, quickly approached Entik.
As a professional knight, the most disadvantageous thing is that there is no ability to maneuver. If you want to escape, you can only fight your way out of the encirclement with one sword, and there is no other way!
However, just when his speed was suppressed by the evil insect Entik, many black-armored and green-winged carrion beetles had also surrounded him. Now if he wants to break out, it will be countless times more difficult than before.
!
"Don't try to escape! Stay here and become part of my insect body..."
Entik's screams are so harsh that it's almost impossible to ignore them.
The fighting on the battlefield suddenly became intense again!
However, at this moment, in a dense canopy two to three hundred meters away, a thin bat with gray hair and red eyes was lying on a tree branch, watching the fiery battlefield from a distance...
