Chapter 165: The First Display of Power
Not only was Alatar surprised, but the thing looking at him was even more surprised.
"Is this what I pulled out?"
The giant beast's eyes widened and it turned around quickly.
It was then that the three of them discovered that the 'wall' that Alatael had been holding onto was actually a crouching giant beast.
"Three large parasites!"
Boom boom boom…
The giant beast fled in panic, making noises of fear.
If such a large insect were allowed to come back, its stomach would be eaten empty! In front of the city wall, the giant creature ran away in fear, and the defenders on the wall were soon attracted by the panicked beast.
"What is it doing?"
"It's just a stupid beast going crazy. Don't worry about it."
Under the mocking gazes of the soldiers, the beast's pace gradually slowed down, until it could no longer run, it finally mustered up the courage to look back.
I saw that the three parasites had disappeared from the place where they were squatting just now.
Are they really parasites? The giant beast scratched its head. Its tiny brain couldn't figure out when those things appeared.
"Why are you running around?"
The giant beast made a very loud noise, and of course such a loud sound could not be hidden from Captain Uruk. He came up and questioned the giant beast.
"There's a big parasite over there," the behemoth replied not very cleverly.
"Just chop them up!"
Captain Uruk looked to where the beast was pointing.
Nothing...?
"Lift me up."
"good."
The behemoth grabbed the captain and lifted him above his head, and the captain's field of vision also rose with this action.
“I saw three people…”
"etc."
"A blue robe?"
"It's that damn wizard, chase him, it's not a parasite at all!!"
"What!?"
The giant beast was shocked and angry. Without thinking, it dropped the team leader and chased after him with its fangs and claws bared.
"How dare you pretend to be a bug to scare me!"
puff--
Captain Uruk lay on the ground and coughed several times.
"idiot!"
But he just cursed and hurried towards the army.
"I've found a wizard, follow me!"
A group of Uruks whose height was almost as high as humans responded and chased after them in the distance.
Some of the smarter Orcs, seeing that the enemy was so far away, activated the catapult on the spot and sat on it themselves.
"ah--"
A moment later, a long scream cut through the sky.
Pah.
"What?"
Levi turned his head and took a look.
Blue Robe seemed to have gotten used to it.
"Never mind, just keep running."
Boom boom boom…
A vibration sound came from behind. The man in blue robe looked back and clenched the wooden staff in his hand.
"If there is only one, let me try..."
He stopped, raised the staff in his hand, and chanted a mysterious spell.
indistinct--
There was a flash of white light, and the giant beast was stunned all of a sudden and stopped in place. Alataar quickly drew out the longbow behind him and pulled it to the full length with great ease - whoosh!
An arrow pierced the giant beast's eye socket.
Roar! The beast was enraged, and then it woke up from the explosion, put its hands on the ground, and rushed over with a clang and a crawl.
At this time, another arrow shot from behind. Although it pierced the skin of the giant beast, no blood was seen. It was obvious that it only barely broke through the skin and failed to penetrate even the fat.
But, that’s enough.
Flames shot up into the sky, and a black figure rushed towards the beast, drawing his sword.
"careful!"
Seeing the giant beast raising its fists and smashing down in panic, the man in blue robe quickly warned it and without hesitation, he raised his staff and began to chant a spell.
But the unpredictable lord went forward to meet him himself.
Bright amber runes appeared on his body, wrapping up his entire body, and the rune ring on his hand sparkled like the sun.
The man in blue robe stopped chanting and fixed his eyes.
ring?
Regardless of whether the Blue Robe Gang helped or not, the giant beast's attack could not cause any damage. Even under the protection of the rune ring, Levi, who was hit hard, did not even take a step back.
After this strike, [Armor Break] was also fully charged, and the long sword cut through the skin and fat, directly touching the flesh and blood inside and even hitting the bones out of thin air.
With senses as dull as that of a giant beast, he fell to his knees in pain, the fat on his body crackling as it burned.
After another seven or eight sword strikes, there was no sound.
Flying a kite with a bow and arrow is certainly simpler and safer, but how can it compare to the exhilarating collision of swords and force? "The giant beast fell?"
The Uruk army chasing behind stopped for a moment.
The fighting power of the behemoth is obvious to all.
Back then on the battlefield of Ithilien, it took at least dozens of well-trained and well-coordinated human rangers to bring down a single behemoth.
Something is wrong. Nine out of ten things are wrong.
These three people are very unusual. I'm afraid each of them needs to be treated as a unit equal to the behemoth.
Can't go up directly.
Captain Uruk's mind was working at light speed.
But Oak didn't think so much. While he was thinking, a small team of Oak vanguards rushed up.
A moment later, they flew back like shooting stars.
“Stop, stop.”
The team leader quickly suppressed the team that was rushing over from behind.
"Wait for Olog to arrive, let them act as the vanguard, and the Oaks will surround them from the rear. No matter how powerful those three are, they won't be able to escape."
Theoretically speaking, if the Ologs, who are tougher and more powerful than iron golems, were to come forward, the three would be in great danger.
It is one of the few soldiers that can defeat several iron golems, break the defense of netherite armor, and has a certain degree of intelligence.
"Olog."
Levi looked at the approaching giants in full steel armor and said, "In my opinion, those guys are even more threatening than the larger beasts."
Seeing that the Oak team had separated from the pursuing army and went around, Levi took out two ender pearls and handed them to the two people beside him.
"Throw it out. This thing can teleport you to wherever it lands."
"good!"
Farodan took it carefully.
"By the way, eat this before you throw it away."
Levi handed him another golden apple.
"Using pearls to teleport can cause some damage to people. This golden apple can protect you."
"What about me?"
The man in blue robe stared at the apple and couldn't help but ask.
"I'm sure you'll be fine."
At this time, Olog was getting closer and closer, and Oak gradually circled around him, forming an encirclement. The whole scene was dark.
Suddenly, three pearls flew over the encirclement and landed on an open space at the back.
Crash.
A ball of purple particles floated up from the spot.
Captain Uruk rubbed his eyes and ran over to check.
"Where are the people?"
Click.
Three figures appeared in the open space.
Most of the golden shield on Farodan's body has been consumed. Levi already has a fall protection of 4, plus the rune ring, so this amount of fall damage is not worth mentioning at all. Theoretically, he would have to drop dozens of pearls before he starts to lose blood.
"Ouch, my foot—"
Alatar appeared shortly after, cried out in pain, and staggered several steps.
While the pursuers were still not able to react, the three of them immediately began to move as soon as they landed.
"How about letting me have one of your apples?"
The wizard asked as he ran.
Levi glanced at the health bar above his head.
Not a drop fell.
"Do you think golden apples are rice? Wait until you really need them."
