Chapter 277: Fight to the Death

Geralt reacted very quickly. He immediately looked up and saw the two-headed chimera pulling down his body. He twisted his body and exerted force on his feet.

He slid along the edge of the airship, avoiding the monster's bites and attacks, and moved to the back of the Chimera.

As he slid on the snow, he released the Quen Sign.

Compared to before, the aura of Quinn's seal was more conspicuous, with golden light flashing, and the wind and snow were blocked outside.

After advancing to the third-level demon hunter, the strength of all his seals increased a lot. The Quen Seal can now block a large amount of physical damage, and the defense against elemental damage is also greatly enhanced.

The Chimera's body was very large, and it made a dull sound when it fell to the ground.

The demon hunter had just stood up from the snow when he heard a shriek behind him, drowning out the sound of the wind whistling past him.

He suddenly lowered his head and rolled to the side, releasing the Aden Seal while rolling.

This seal can create a magic trap that causes bleeding and paralysis to the enemy. It can only play a small role against large prey, but if you want to win the battle against powerful monsters, you must accumulate slight advantages.

In addition, he is not fighting alone, he has reliable teammates fighting alongside him.

Geralt stood up from the ground and caught a glimpse of the wooden-handled javelin stuck in the ground.

At the same time, two tall pagans jumped down from the back of the two-headed chimera.

Both of them were over two meters tall, and were shirtless even in this snowy season. Their faces were painted with white and red paint, and they wore a bone necklace around their necks.

His chest and arms were covered with knotty muscles, and he had a long, narrow bone knife slung around his waist.

The demon hunter raised his finger provocatively and said contemptuously: "Come here!"

His companions repeatedly warned him of the power of the two-headed chimera. He also knew that it would take a long time to fight a life-and-death battle with such a large creature, so he made a plan to kill the cultist riding the chimera first.

The cultists cannot understand the language of the demon hunters, but they can still feel the enemy's contempt.

The two looked at each other, both activated their blue life force armor, drew their swords with a grin, and rushed towards the demon hunter.

The two-headed chimera also turned its head, and each of its two heads, which were as big as water tanks, had a pair of eyes as big as casseroles and like searchlights.

There was no stability in the monster's eyes. It stared at the witcher coldly, with light red saliva flowing from its mouth.

Yennefer had already released the elemental shield when Geralt jumped out of the airship.

She stood at the door, sensing the movements outside. She believed that her lover would be able to deal with the enemy in a short time.

If the demon hunter completes the transformation, he will have stronger self-healing ability, which is one of the reasons why they discussed letting the demon hunter attract the firepower.

The cultists pounced on Geralt, and Yennefer saw white bone pieces similar to fish scales growing on their backs.

She immediately selected her spell, and a huge light blue ice cone as tall as herself appeared in front of her.

This is an ice cone condensed from magic power. It not only has extremely strong physical piercing ability, but also can bring explosive ice elemental damage.

After the spell was formed, Yennefer immediately jumped out of the airship and released the spell the moment she went out.

Facing the cultists rushing towards him, Geralt took two steps back and lowered his center of gravity. He wanted to give his companions a chance to kill the enemy.

The later he takes his move, the greater the chances of his companions succeeding.

A streak of icy blue light flashed by, and as fast as lightning, it pierced one of the cultists.

The demon hunter laughed. One of the cultists sensed the attack from behind but it was too late to react. The ice cone pierced through the source armor, broke the bone armor on his back, and went out from his chest, spilling blue blood.

This is the most powerful single-target spell of the female companion, with dual damage of physical and ice elements, specially designed to break the life source armor of high-level knights. Once stabbed, there is no hope of survival. The only way to break this spell is to dodge.

When this ice cone spell comes into contact with warm blood, the ice explodes immediately, and the ice cone turns back into ice elements and spreads in all directions.

The cultist who was hit opened his mouth and wanted to shout, but his internal organs were immediately frozen and white frost instantly spread to his entire body.

A living creature turned into an ice sculpture, and under the inertia of its forward movement, the cultist rolled down the hillside.

Geralt immediately took two steps to the side, and after he moved, the other cultist also adjusted his position.

The death of their companions did not cause any psychological shock to the cultists. The Kurud tribe believed that defeat was shameful and only the victors could be called true warriors.

He has support behind him; the two-headed Chimaera is his confidence and reliance. He believes that the Chimaera can stop the sneak attacking enemy.

After he kills the little guy in front of him, he will make sure to deal with the sneak attack enemy.

"Fool, it's good that you died. Now I can control the sacred beast alone."

The cultist approached the enemy and suddenly exerted force, holding the knife with both hands and raising it above his head.

"Haha, kid, you were actually frightened by my bravery. Go to hell."

The cultist saw that the enemy seemed to be stunned by his own strength, with a cruel arc on the corner of his mouth. The scene of the enemy being split in half appeared in his mind. It was so beautiful.

A red light suddenly lit up on the ground, and the cultist's smile seemed to be temporarily suppressed, frozen in the wind and snow.

The Aden Sign was originally used to deal with the two-headed chimera, but I didn't expect you to come so anxiously. Geralt moved after seeing the enemy step into the magic trap.

He instantly completed the transition from stillness to charge, and his sword pierced through the snowflakes blown by the wind, like a silver lightning, straight into the enemy's lower abdomen.

It's not that he didn't want to stab the neck, but it was more convenient for him to stab the lower abdomen. The cultist was too tall, so he could only jump up to stab his neck.

He had never fought against such cultists before, and didn't know how resistant the enemy was to the paralyzing effects of the Aden Sign, so he chose a safer way of fighting.

It takes time to jump up, and the enemy may have already escaped from the paralyzed state because of this momentary delay. The use of the Yerden Sign is more because of its bleeding effect.

There is also a larger and more oppressive enemy to face, and he must defeat it quickly.

The sharp sword in the demon hunter's hand pierced the enemy's body, but was resisted by the source armor. His attack did not have the ability to pierce the source armor in one blow.

Geralt immediately raised his hand and released the Igni Sign.

The blood and energy armor composed of the knight's life source has a slightly weaker resistance to elemental attacks. He feels that as long as he is given two or three seconds, he can break the enemy's defense.

Then he can finish off the enemy with Yennefer and fight together against the most powerful alchemical creature of flesh and blood.

Ideals are perfect, but reality is cruel.

As soon as the flame from the seal rose up, the paralysis effect on the cultist was lifted, and he raised his bone knife with both hands and chopped it down heavily.

Geralt could only dodge, unable to break the knight's source armor and could not endanger the enemy's life at all.

The moment Yennefer jumped out of the airship, the two heads of the two-headed chimera immediately turned around, and when it saw the sorceress flying out, it pounced forward fiercely.

Relying on its huge size, the Chimera stood up on its hind legs, flapped its wings vigorously, and immediately pounced in front of the target.

Yennefer had long understood the situation she would face. She could not rush to attack at this moment because the two-headed Chimera could not be dealt with instantly. This was destined to be a protracted battle.

"Squish," she uttered a few syllables rapidly, and a transparent barrier appeared in front of her - a magic barrier.

Magic Barrier, creates a hemispherical magic shield in front of you to block all types of damage.

The duration of this spell is very short, only about one second, but it has a very strong defensive effect. Coupled with the elemental shield she originally released, even the two-headed Chimera would find it difficult to break her defense instantly.

“Ah!”

The two-headed chimera growled and opened its huge mouth to bite the target's magic barrier.

Yennefer twisted her body, adjusting her position.

When the Chimera's attack comes, just knock it away.

She used the enormous force to float away and landed near Geralt.

"Haven't you dealt with the cultists yet?"

The warlock didn't expect that his companion failed to kill the enemy, and his two curved eyebrows twisted together.

She was very clear about her companion's strength. The fact that he failed to kill the enemy with one strike showed that this cultist was at least at the third level.

With a two-headed Chimaera of unknown strength and a third-level cultist knight, they are in for a tough fight.

"This guy is much stronger than me. It's hard to gain a decisive advantage in a head-on battle."

Geralt smiled bitterly. The enemy was able to quickly get rid of the paralysis of the Aden Sign, which showed that he also had strong resistance and a high physical fitness.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

If he didn't have the advantage of speed, he would be crushed by the enemy in all aspects.

The cultist and the two-headed chimera both pounced on it, and the two sides fought together. The wind gradually died down, and large patches of blue and red blood were scattered on the white snow.

The blue ones belong to the cultists and Chimaera, the red ones belong to Geralt, and the only one who was not injured was Yennefer, but her magic power had been consumed by more than half, and the situation was not optimistic.

The witcher looked at the cultist who was still full of energy, and the corners of his mouth twitched constantly.

The bleeding effect of the Aden Sign is very useful. This enemy bleeds more than a normal person, and yet he can hold on for so long.

Now the wounds on the enemy's body cut by the magic trap have stopped bleeding, and the balance of victory has once again tilted towards the enemy.

Yennefer's eyes were filled with solemnity: "We must first kill the cultists, otherwise we won't be able to concentrate on attacking the Chimera. If this continues, we will all die here!"

A lot of the two-headed Chimera's magic power is consumed when attacking the airship. If it drags on, the magic power will be restored a little and it can release the spitting skill, then they will be more passive.

"Hehe, you have to force me to use my special moves."

Geralt threw away his weapon, let out a loud roar, and rushed towards the cultists.

His body swelled up immediately like a blown-up balloon.

The face was elongated, the two ears became pointed and stood upright, and a three-meter-tall white werewolf completed the transformation in the air.

"I can also use my bigness to bully the smallness."

“Ah!”

The majestic werewolf howled wildly, its long white hair flying in the air. Geralt wanted to return all the frustration he had just felt in the battle.

The reason why he didn't transform at the beginning was because he couldn't release the seal after transforming. Now the little magic power in his body had been exhausted, so he transformed without any hesitation.

Geralt's physical fitness will be greatly improved when he transforms into a werewolf, and he can already suppress the enemy in terms of strength.

When Yennefer saw her companions rushing forward, she immediately cast a spell to erect an ice wall behind the cultists.

At this point in the battle, except for the two-headed Chimera, everyone else's physical strength has been consumed a lot, and their movements are no longer as swift as at the beginning. The cultists can no longer maintain their source armor.

When Geralt transforms into a werewolf, his physical strength will recover quickly.

At this time, as long as the companions can stop the enemy from retreating, they are likely to complete the mission of killing the cultists.

She believed that her companions would be able to seize this opportunity, which was a tacit understanding they had developed from their daily interactions.

The cultist was stunned when he saw the werewolf, who was half a body taller than him, rushing towards him.

Werewolves are very aggressive creatures with only bloodthirsty desires in their minds. They will indiscriminately kill creatures around them.

He really couldn't understand why the other party didn't attack the closer sorceress, but he didn't have time to think about it at this moment, as the werewolf's claws had already enlarged in his eyes.

The enemy suddenly accelerated and he had no time to dodge.

"Not attacking your companions means they still have some sense. I'm going to fight to the death. How will you respond?"

The cultists also emerged from a sea of ​​blood and corpses and made a decision immediately.

He faced the enemy's attack, raised his bone knife and leaped forward.

The werewolf's attack would kill him, but he could also split the werewolf's head.

He was gambling that his enemies would not dare to die with him.

Geralt let out an excited growl, and suddenly he pounced into the arms of his enemy, but the cultist's bone knife had no time to fall.

He dug his claws into his enemy's chest and tore it open.

The cultist was hit against the ice wall, the ferocity on his face turned into unwillingness, and he opened his mouth helplessly.

The white werewolf clenched his fist and punched the cultist hard on the head.

"Bang", white and red jelly sprayed out, and blue blood dyed the white wolf.

The two-headed chimera howled angrily and rushed towards the werewolf.

The monster that has lost its elemental attack ability cannot cause fatal damage to the agile werewolf, but instead falls into the rhythm of the warlock and werewolf.

Ten minutes passed like this. Although Yennefer had tried to reduce the number of attacks as much as possible, her magic power was still consumed a lot.

"I don't have much magic power left. I can't let it go. We can't predict whether it will attract pursuers."

Geralt understood and shouted, "I have torn its left wing. If the wound gets bigger, it won't be able to take off."

"I'll create opportunities for you."

Yennefer immediately adjusted her position and moved to the right side of Chimera, exposing herself to the enemy's attack range.

Her magic can still release two magic barriers, and she has now entrusted her life to Geralt.

Seeing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Chimera pounced forward and bit the enemy without thinking.

The werewolf seized the opportunity, jumped onto the enemy's wing membrane, grabbed the small crack, and used all his strength to tear it apart.

The wound on the Chimera's fleshy wing expanded to near its spine, and it lost the ability to fly.

As the battle continued, the Chimaera began to attack Geralt frantically. Yennefer seized the opportunity to hide in the airship and use the Golden Spirit Coin to restore her magic power.

Finally, the sorceress ended the battle by shooting an icicle into the Chimera's giant mouth.

Seeing that the situation was over, Geralt fainted and his body reverted to human form.
