Chapter 408 Six Major Benefits, A Glittering New Mount!
Gu Yueyuan had no time to lament his losses; he was simply astonished as he stared at the newly appeared enemy, slowly uttering a few words.
"A mutated swamp frog!?"
The ark in the distance was also somewhat surprised.
Although the monster's size has increased many times.
Although it was covered in flames and was unlike any other creature.
Although there are obvious signs of enhancement and modification on parts such as the head and feet.
Although its entire body gleamed with a metallic sheen, its defensive capabilities were clearly not low.
But he could still tell that this guy was originally a swamp frog.
Even its posture of leaping several meters high, constantly flicking its tongue, and chasing after the swarm of insects from Guyueyuan is exactly the same as that of the Demon Swamp Frog!
Based on the monster encyclopedia lessons at Haicheng Military Academy, Fangzhou knew that the Lava Demons loved to combine all sorts of creatures with machinery, magic, and demonic power to create all sorts of bizarre things.
Although it is unknown when they captured these swamp native swamp frogs, this metal swamp frog covered in flames is clearly one of their achievements, and it looks quite successful!
Ordinary Swamp Frogs are only apprentice-level units, while elite Swamp Frogs can reach the Iron level.
However, their racial combat strength coefficient is among the lowest of all creatures of the same level, at most slightly stronger than ordinary skeletons and zombies.
However, this modified Flame Swamp Frog has evolved from a small creature to a large one, resulting in an explosive increase in its racial combat power coefficient.
It not only possesses the strength of a lower-tier Black Iron, but it also has a high probability of carrying the Elite affix, otherwise its combat power would not be so outrageous.
After a brief moment of surprise, Fangzhou reacted immediately.
He took a deep breath, brandished the necromancer orb, and prepared to go all out.
"A cage of bones!"
As he cast his spell, several eerie and terrifying chains of white bone appeared out of thin air beneath the feet of the lava warriors who were still fighting Olaf.
These bone chains, as if growing from the ground, quickly wrapped around the lava demon's legs.
Because they maintained a dense, small square formation, they were all completely enveloped by the effect of this magic.
Caught off guard, two lava demons lost their balance and fell flat on their faces, unable to get up for a while.
Their armor scraped against the ground, making a screeching sound, and they looked extremely disheveled.
The remaining lava demons couldn't help but roar out in anger.
Because the bone chains beneath their feet, which were equipped with various control effects, seemed to be sticking their feet to the ground.
Their already slow movement speed was further reduced.
Now, they are completely unable to shake off Olaf's entanglement.
Upon seeing this, Ye Yinzhu was overjoyed and sang even more energetically.
His song echoed across the battlefield. Although it had no effect on undead creatures, it greatly boosted the morale of the Thunderfire Squad members.
The members of the Thunderfire Squad also mustered their courage and took the initiative to attack, cooperating with Liu Diewu and Zhang Wu's output, and launched a fierce attack on the lava demon warriors who had fallen to the ground.
The lava demons, clad in heavy armor, possess extremely strong defenses, but once they fall to the ground, they find it very difficult to get up without the help of others.
However, in order to maintain their formation, the other lava demon warriors were unable to lend a helping hand.
Therefore, for Fangzhou and the others, the situation was very favorable for a time.
However, seeing Gu Yueyuan being chased around by the Flaming Swamp Frog in the distance, looking quite disheveled, Fang Zhou remained calm, only his hand movements as he cast spells became a little faster.
He believed that with Gu Yueyuan's strength, especially since he had just replaced his natal Gu worm with the Dead Leaf Butterfly, he would have no problem ensuring his safety while being chased by the Flaming Swamp Frog.
What he needs to do now is to take advantage of the time that Gu Yueyuan has gained to quickly gain an advantage on the main battlefield and establish a winning position.
"A halo of decay!"
Fang Zhou waved his hand and cast a spell, a dark blue halo spreading out from his magic orb and covering the entire battlefield.
This aura not only weakened the Lava Demons' defenses but also accelerated their physical decay, making them even more vulnerable.
The lava demons' armor began to crack, their skin showed signs of decay, and they became sluggish.
They screamed in agony, but could not escape this invisible erosion.
"Poison Cloud Technique!"
The poisonous gas rapidly corroded their armor and skin, and coughs and roars filled the air.
Some of the lava monsters even began to fall to the ground, unable to get up again.
"Skeleton Shockwave!"
"A spear that pierces the heart with its bone-like structure!"
As Ark cast its final spell, several sharp bone spears rained down from the sky, striking the lava demon's vitals with pinpoint accuracy.
These bone spears not only caused enormous damage, but also had a strong corrosive effect, causing the lava demon's wounds to deteriorate rapidly.
Blood and lava mingled together, staining the earth red.
After several flashes of light, several lava demon warriors who had been holding the line were immediately killed.
Olaf was also freed from the encirclement.
Ark swung the Necromancer Orb, gathering the power of the Undead Crown onto several zombies, allowing them to take Olaf's place and hold back the Lava Demon warriors who were trapped in the siege.
With his hands free, Olaf, under Ark's command, decisively turned his gun and charged towards the lava demon leader who was recklessly attacking Gu Yueyuan.
Then, Fangzhou turned to Ye Yinzhu: "Are there any other buff skills?"
Ye Yinzhu immediately understood what Fangzhou meant.
He continued chanting and playing music while tearing up another magic scroll.
"The elegance of cats!"
As a cat's phantom image flashed by, Olaf, who was already very fast, gained an even greater agility.
His movements became even faster, each step as light as a cat's, and he quickly approached the Lava Demon leader.
Fang Zhou was overjoyed: "Ye Yinzhu, don't worry, this time you won't have spent money for nothing."
If we win, we will all benefit greatly!
The brute strength of the ox, the elegance of the cat, the patience of the bear, the cunning of the fox, the insight of the owl, and the brilliance of the eagle.
These six buff spells are quite well-known and widely used buff magic in the mythological world.
Because of their powerful effects, the cost of learning each skill is very high.
But as it turns out, his efforts were well worth it.
Having received numerous enhancements, Olaf charged forward and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the lava demon leader, who was equipped with enchanted guns.
No one else will have to worry about being shot in the back by that hateful guy anymore!
Despite the Lava Demon leader's relentless counterattacks with enchanted guns, his efforts seemed utterly ineffective compared to Olaf, who was buffed and an elite unit.
Olaf's every swing was accompanied by the force of a thunderbolt, and every dodge was perfectly timed.
Although the Lava Demon leader was equipped with enchanted guns, he was not a professional warrior after all. In addition, Olaf's agility and strength were greatly enhanced, and his counterattacks were almost all easily neutralized.
Ark also cast spells from time to time to help Olaf maintain his best condition.
Olaf maintained a near-perfect performance throughout the entire match.
However, this lava demon leader was heavily armored and had extremely strong defensive capabilities. Relying on Olaf's berserk attack power, it would indeed be difficult to defeat it in a short time.
But Fangzhou wasn't in a hurry.
He kept a close eye on both the main battlefield and Olaf's movements, constantly casting spells to help his side expand their advantage.
Judging from the current situation, the death of this lava demon leader is only a matter of time.
Meanwhile, Gu Yueyuan also found a way to fight the Flaming Swamp Frog.
After overcoming his initial surprise, he discovered that the Flame Swamp Frog's attack power wasn't actually that terrifying.
The reason why they were able to kill so many of his insect swarms at once was probably because he had just emerged from the volcano and was carrying a powerful buff.
Having figured this out, he immediately felt more confident and stopped fighting head-on. Instead, he circled around the camp, desperately trying to outmaneuver his opponent.
Although the Flame Swamp Frog quickly waved its fins and set the entire camp ablaze, it didn't have any particularly good way to deal with the slippery Gu Yueyuan.
Gu Yueyuan used his familiarity with the terrain to constantly move through the camp, dodging the attacks of the Flaming Swamp Frog.
He commanded the swarm to harass him from multiple directions, forcing the Flame Swamp Frogs to be distracted and unable to concentrate their forces against him.
After establishing an advantage on the main battlefield, Liu Diewu and Ye Yinzhu also took the time to give Gu Yueyuan a few buff skills, further enhancing Gu Yueyuan's agility and reaction speed.
With the addition of these buff skills, the danger of Gu Yueyuan was greatly reduced.
Just then, Olaf let out a low shout and swung his axe, sending the lava demon leader staggering several steps and almost falling to the ground.
Fangzhou's eyes lit up immediately. After fighting for so long, this was the first time the opponent had shown such a weak state!
"A cage of bones!"
Fangzhou quickly cast a spell, and several eerie and terrifying white bone chains appeared out of thin air at the feet of the lava demon leader, quickly binding his legs.
The lava demon leader lost his balance, stumbled forward a few steps, and nearly fell.
"A Nova with Deadly Poison!"
As Ark cast his spell again, a massive aura of poison spread from his orb, enveloping the lava demon leader's body.
The massive amount of undead putrefactive poison accumulated within the already weakened lava demon instantly erupted.
Even his full suit of heavy armor couldn't withstand the immense damage that erupted from within.
His body began to tremble violently, and numerous cracks appeared on his skin, from which blood and lava mixed and flowed.
He could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground with a thud, exposing his back.
The armor was corroded and riddled with holes, and the body was rapidly weakening under the effects of the deadly poison.
His breathing became rapid, and his eyes shone with despair; he was clearly no longer able to fight.
Olaf, who was of one mind with Ark, took advantage of his illness and viciously swung his battle axe at him.
One axe, two axe, three axe —
Because the Lava Demon leader was in a helpless state of being seriously injured and fallen, Olaf swiftly unleashed several axe blows, inflicting several hideous wounds on his opponent.
Each swing carried the force of thunder, shattering the lava demon leader's armor and splattering blood everywhere.
With his fifth axe strike, the Lava Demon leader's movements instantly ceased.
With all his might, he cleaved the lava demon leader in the neck.
The axe blade was deeply embedded in his neck, and blood gushed out like a fountain.
He simply reached out towards the lava volcano, as if he wanted to say something, but all that came out of his mouth was a large gushing of blood.
Then his arm fell heavily to the ground, and even the enchanted gun he had been holding tightly was thrown away, landing on the ground to the side with a dull thud.
In the vision of the Soul Eagle Eye, Fangzhou saw that the originally exceptionally bright soul radiance of this lava demon leader had instantly dimmed.
This meant that his life had come to a complete end. Fang Zhou couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, a sense of victory welling up in his heart.
He quickly adjusted his strategy to prepare for any potential changes that might occur.
Almost simultaneously, another sigh came from the lava volcano, carrying an indescribable eeriness.
Gu Yueyuan, who was dodging the attack of the Flaming Swamp Frog, suddenly shuddered.
He vividly remembered that after the last sigh, half of his swarm was wiped out!
But this time, there seemed to be only a simple sigh; no new Flame Swamp Frogs leaped out.
Olaf turned and pounced on the Flame Frog, gaining the upper hand for a moment thanks to his agility and numerous buffs.
Looking at the lava demons in front of him, who seemed to be at a loss because they had lost their leader, Ark suddenly had some ideas.
Without their leader, the lava demons became even more disorganized, their formation began to crumble, and their movements slowed down.
Fangzhou seized the opportunity and unleashed some control skills on these heavily armored turtle shells once again.
Several white bone chains rose from the ground, tightly binding several lava demon warriors and rendering them unable to move.
"Willow Dance, would you be interested in having it as your animal companion?" Fang Zhou turned and called out to Willow Dance.
Liu Diewu was immediately tempted; the swamp frog, covered in magnificent flames, was indeed quite beautiful.
But she quickly shook her head: "No, I'm not a nature summoner, and the number of animal partners I can contract is limited."
I still want to find some beautiful big cats like lions or tigers.
Although she hesitated a few times about choosing her animal companions, she still wanted some that combined strength with a glamorous appearance.
Although this Flame Swamp Frog looked very special at first glance, she had already seen through it in just a few minutes and realized that its actual combat strength was not that great.
Its attacks, though fierce, lacked consistency and precision, relying more on its size and the intimidation of its flames. "So, how about helping me this once? Let's see if we can tame it!"
