Age of Adepts

Chapter 401: Inviting Monarch to enter the boiling pot

The hardest thing about strangling scorpion lions is how to control them.

Nine adult and young scorpion lions, two of whom possess elite wizard skills, three equal to the old brand wizards, and the remaining four are basically newcomers.

With such strength, it is absolutely possible to crush Grimm's side of the team. After all, they only have Grimm, an eruptive elite wizard and two old wizards, Grigg and Lin!

As for other adventurers and pharmacy apprentices, they are reluctant to be used as shields. It must be a miserable end for them to stand up to a solid line of defense, no less than a mantis arm to stop the car.

So the only way to beat the weak is to set traps, introduce the scorpion lions into a narrow area, and cut their numbers. And Grimm dared to do so by knowing the scorpion lion.

Although Scorpion Lions are also a fierce monster, they do not have the ability to attack remotely after all, which is the main reason why they never get to the stage! Without the special environmental advantages of underground tunnels, their power would be even worse than those of bipedal dragons.

Near dawn, the scorpion lions hunting outside began to return to their nest again on a massive scale.

As soon as they stepped into the tunnel, the two elite scorpion lions, headed by them, became restless.

When Grimm and Grigg witches break in, they try to hide their scent and erase the traces left behind. But this time, in addition to them, even the adventurous mercenaries broke in with a torch in their hands.

The intense human atmosphere left behind in the passage and the burning smell of the fire are like lighthouses in the night, obviously no longer visible!

My own lair was broken into by a bunch of humans?

The Scorpion Lion Leader cannot help but be worried about the two little Scorpion Lions who have left their nest behind!

At its urging, the scorpion lions abandoned their prey, slapping on the wings of the manta and rushing deep into the ground along the scent left by humans. The more they fly, the more worried they are, because the path of the human race is pointing straight at their hidden lair!

We have to make the Scorpion lions burn!

Finally, at a key junction on the outskirts of the nest, they smell the little scorpion lion.

Mixed with the smell of the little scorpion lion is also the coarseness of the elements after the flames burst and… a faint bloody smell!

The former heralded the involvement of human wizards, while the latter, in particular, enraged the Scorpion Lions.

In barely half an hour, they searched the nest and found no trace of half a silk enemy. And with a sharp sense of smell, they perceive that the enemy is not fleeing, but that the little scorpion lion is wrapped up straight towards the deeper ground.

Led by two elite scorpion lions, one mother and one mother, the group of scorpion lions who had lost their minds in fury followed the scent and finally found in an underground jedi the clothes left behind by two severely bound, solid scorpion lions and a bunch of human mercenaries.

Just as they frantically tore the rope on the little scorpion lion, Grimm took refuge from behind with Grigg Witches and others, securely occupying the entrance and exit of this underground Jedi.

The so-called underground jedi actually refer to a small area with only one entrance and exit, with no other access. Such caves and caves are almost everywhere in the underground world, and they are an area that the underground expedition loves and hates.

If you are a member of an expedition, it is undoubtedly the best place to camp if you are able to find such a location while the team is resting. As long as the only entrance and exit are sealed and guarded, there is no risk that the team will be attacked.

But if you encounter a large number of underground creatures, this inescapable underground jedi can easily wipe out an expedition team. That's why they're so lovely and hateful, so hard to choose from!

This underground jedi that Grimm picked out for the Scorpion Lions was a funnel-shaped cave that had been trampled on many times, and there was no other passage to pass through but this only entrance and exit. And the only entrance, 4 meters wide and 3 meters high, allows only one adult scorpion lion to spread its wings through, or two scorpion lions to squeeze through.

When Grimm spotted the scorpion lions in the urn, he immediately cut them off from behind. As soon as he got to the hole, Grimm released the growler and the rotter, leaving the growler covered in rock creases to block the road, and he and the rotter to flank the attack.

As for the other team members, they spread the perimeter to prevent other underground creatures from coming to disrupt it.

And the Grigg witch, with a wave of spells, detonated the many traps that were hidden in the cave.

Large quantities of bitter weed and small quantities of ghost mushrooms were lit by flames and began to create stinging smoke and horrible stench in all corners of the cave, as well as flying fungal spores.

They drain the air inside the cave quickly.

Since all the dark lanes and cracks had been blocked beforehand, smoke and poison gas could not be released and the caves and the scorpion lions inside had almost immediately been completely submerged.

Immediately in the choking smoke came a huge, tsunami-like cough and scorpion lions clapping at the wings of the manta, accompanied by the fierce thunderous horror of the scorpion lion chief.

The growler, a giant stone man up to 4 metres and weighing 35 tons, was also wrapped in a thick layer of rock armor. As today's only flesh shield, it abandoned all chances of attack and only amassed a giant rock between the hands of the rock as a shield, fully defending it.

Its defensive posture had just been completed, with smoke in the cave, and a fierce, unmatched scorpion lion pinched a violent hurricane and hit the ‘shield’ in its hand.

A bang.

More than a meter thick rock instantly crushes bone!

The growler's heavy body went backwards and backwards wrong, and rocky feet and hard floors even frictioned off sparkling Mars. And the adult scorpion lion also hit his head with a broken bloodstream, shaking his body and stunning in the hole.

And while both sides were unresponsive, Grimm stood behind the growler's side and a fortified lava ball threw under the feet of the injured Scorpion Lion. At the same time, the rotter's corrosive acid liquid sphere should be heard on the scorpion lion.

Like a large pot of strong sulphuric acid poured on the body, the injured scorpion lion was still stunned and corroded by strong acid, the strong and powerful bristles quickly disappeared, and the brown skin like hard leather emitted a nourishing corrosive abnormality.

And just the next second, the lava fireball burst, and the fierce shockwave of scorpion lions took off, and the entire chest was fleshly blurred. As for the next lava debris splash and magma splash, it turns the inside of the hole into a terrible lava flame that is difficult for ordinary people to stand on.

And the scorpion lion just stepped aside, the wind whistled, and a new scorpion lion sandwiched with wind thunder.

This time, growlers don't have a rock ‘shield' to protect them, and only a pair of big rock hands can hold up the Scorpion Lion's raid.

Bang......

It was another big crackling sound.

Half a metre thick, the growler's two stone hands were crushed into the sky. If it hadn't been for its raw sinking of two stone legs into the rock floor, I'm afraid it would have been crashed in the first place.

What a terrible force!

According to the chip monitoring, the impact intensity of the two scorpion lions just now has reached an alarming 135 degrees. This… this is already an attack intensity beyond the reach of ordinary wizards!

And this scorpion lion was much better in shape and strength than the first. After the violent impact, he didn't get stunned except for the head breaking blood flow and the fall of his fangs. Not only did it not faint, but at the moment when the growler's hands disappeared and the empty door leaked, the scorpion tail behind it burst out like a storm lightning bolt, ruthlessly stuck on the growler's rock armor.

Four finger thick rock armor was pierced raw, sharp and horrible poison needles quickly poured paralysis venom into the growler's body. Meanwhile, the growler lifted his right foot and stamped again.

The terrible invisible seismic wave immediately begins to spread around!

All individuals exposed to seismic waves were forced to jump in place, making the whole body's musculoskeletal tremors difficult to sustain and losing further resilience.

The scorpion lion in this raid is clearly an elite guy, no matter how physical and powerful he is, less than a growler. But unfortunately, when the paralysis venom doesn't work, it also has to eat each other's ‘tremors'!

If you replace it with another scorpion lion, it may take three or five fingers to get rid of this out-of-control effect, but for an elite scorpion lion, it is only one short out-of-control.

Unfortunately, Grim has already launched an attack!

Never dare to treasure the broom, Grimm unhesitatingly used his strongest monolithic fire witchcraft in the voodoo scroll - the nuclear meltdown!

With the destruction of the fiery Witch Wand, Grim's nuclear meltdown was already capable of reaching an ultra-high attack strength of 125 degrees, 10 degrees above its previous foot.

Don't underestimate the 10 degree difference, it's based on deep breaking defenses!

In general witch fights, every guy finds a way to put a variety of element shields and witchcraft shields on himself. Under layer reduction, ordinary witchcraft attacks cannot break through this defense, and can only be slowly consumed.

And the higher the intensity of a single attack, the more likely it is to break the opponent's defensive witchcraft with one blow, then the damage of the element that overflows can only be completely consumed by the opponent in full!

And this elite scorpion lion in front of you, the greatest sorcery damage it can handle, is only 90 degrees.

While a witchcraft attack below 90 degrees can also cause partial damage to the body's surface, it still fails to break through the protective field created by powerful life energy, and therefore fails to damage vital organs and critical parts of its body.

And this is the foundation to keep it fighting!

Even if Grimm reaches 125 degrees of nuclear meltdown for the most part, the remaining 35 degrees of flame damage will truly work on its flesh and blood trunk.
