The girls' participation somewhat eased the situation on Crusch's side, but it did not fundamentally improve. Priestess and Bolin joined the ranks of treating the soldiers who were poisoned by magic, while Ais and Mavis were responsible for carrying the soldiers to the big tree - the tall tree was the only sign that everyone could see in the thick fog.

And Mailu joined the battle as the main force of reinforcements. Everyone thought that as long as Mailu joined the battle, the situation could be turned around quickly.

But……

"Over there!"

With the help of detection magic, Mai Lu immediately and decisively found the white whale hidden in the fog, then she jumped up, whistled down with the long sword in her hand, and chopped the white whale's head heavily, leaving a deep wound. The white whale also screamed in pain, and then swung its tail at her, and Mai Lu took the opportunity to jump away and attacked the white whale again.

but……

"Why do I feel like Mai Lu didn't try her best?"

Looking at the battle images in front of her, Maine asked in confusion.

"Doesn't Mai Lu have half the power of an ancient dragon? Why is it so difficult to fight?"

It's no wonder that Maine would have such doubts. After all, as of now, the damage caused by the battle between Milu and the White Whale is between that of the white-haired old man and Crusch. She did cause considerable damage to the White Whale, but she was not able to cause a fatal blow to it.

This is quite different from what Maine thought. As a time traveler, she certainly knows that Mailu possesses half of the ancient dragon's power. In Maine's opinion, with this kind of power, Mailu only needs to hold the sword and swipe it a few times to cut the white whale into sashimi.

I didn't expect it to turn out like this...

"This is normal. This is how people with no combat skills fight."

Fang Zheng seemed very calm.

"Mailu only has half the power of an ancient dragon. Besides, she is not an ancient dragon yet. Her body is still human, which also limits her output."

As Fang Zheng said before, size itself is also an advantage in combat. In the past, Fang Zheng did not understand why many dragons would transform back to their original form when they could not defeat them. After all, as a human at that time, he thought that a larger dragon meant a larger target and was easier to be targeted.

But after Fang Zheng himself turned into a time dragon, he finally understood... it was not that easy to be targeted!

The dragon's defense is so strong that ordinary people can't penetrate it! And after it changes back to its original form, its lethality will be enhanced!

Take AOE for example, if Fang Zheng wanted to be a One Punch Man, in human form, he could only kill dozens of people with one punch. But if he turned back into a dragon and slapped the ground with one claw, a shock wave would kill all of Crusch.

Therefore, body size is often a means of limiting power. Mai Lu only has half the power of an ancient dragon, and now her body size is only that of a human, which further weakens her power. If Mai Lu could turn into a dragon, then the white whale would be in real trouble. But the problem is that Mai Lu is only a human, a twelve-year-old girl. The total length of her body and sword is less than three meters. Her attack is no different from an ancient dragon poking a white whale with a toothpick.

Not to mention, Milu herself has no combat skills.

In Fang Zheng's opinion, Mai Lu is just like those new players in online games who can reach level 100 without any knowledge. You can reach level 100 with a click of the mouse, and the green equipment is also level 100. It's not difficult to play a dungeon of 60, 70 or 80 levels alone. But once you enter a dungeon of the same level, you will be completely blinded.

Fang Zheng had seen this kind of people before. When forming a random team, the healer with the shadow priest talent and the MT wearing output equipment were all this kind of people.

"Where's the fucking treatment? Treatment adds health!!"

"I'm adding more, but your health is dropping too fast!"

"Can your solo skills add up? Group skills! Group skills for healing!! Can't you remove the curse?"

"What is group brushing? Which skill is used to remove the curse? And I am also dealing damage! How can I defeat the boss if I don't deal damage?"

"F-F-F-......!!"

[Player Cirno cursed and left the team]

"Healing adds blood! Why can't it add blood?"

"I added it, but why is your health dropping so fast? You are the MT, don't you have any damage reduction skills activated?"

"I opened it, but this boss's hits hurt so much!"

"That shouldn't be the case. How could it be possible? Let me take a look at your equipment... You're wearing green gear, and all of it is for damage? Are you still a MT?"

"Is it not possible? This equipment of mine is quite stable in killing small monsters, and the output is quite high."

“…”

[The player Big Fairy silently left the team]

"That hunter, I told you to put your pet away! Don't compete with me for hatred!"

"I'm the Beastmaster. Why would I fight monsters without a pet?"

"Turn off the taunt! How can I pull the monsters if you do that?"

"Isn't it good for my baby to help you share the hatred? And aren't you an MT? Can't you pull the hatred back?"

“Oh my god—!!!”

[Player Remlia angrily quits the team]

The so-called engine of total destruction in random dungeons refers to people like Mai Lu.

It was the same as when they went to fight the Goblin's lair before. When Mai Lu saw the miserable state of the victims, she was furious and rushed to confront the Boss, leaving her companions on the spot. She even forgot that another melee fighter in her team had already gone to send the victims home. The two ranged fighters had no self-protection ability at all. If the priestess and the others had not acted in time, I'm afraid that when Mai Lu came back after defeating the Boss, her two companions would have been eaten up by the Goblins.

Just like now.

In order to stop the white whale as quickly as possible, Mai Lu rushed towards it like a fool, but she didn't have the skills to kill the white whale with one blow, so she fell into a stalemate... But it didn't matter.

"Ms. Mylu, attack the organ that releases the spray from the white whale!"

On the contrary, the priestess below saw it clearly and shouted loudly. Although the girls did not participate in the previous battle, they had been observing the battlefield through surveillance magic and naturally knew that the mist was sprayed from the white whale. And Mai Lu kept covering her head and slamming the white whale, but it had no effect at all, because the white whale was still emitting mist, and they couldn't even support Mai Lu.

"received!"

After hearing what the priestess said, Mailu finally reacted and rushed over the white whale's back quickly. The long sword in her hand created several sword flowers and with a few swipes, she completely destroyed the organ on the white whale that was spraying thick fog. The white whale was severely injured and struggled to escape with screams. At the same time, the originally thick fog began to dissipate.

"Very good!"

Seeing the fog gradually dissipate, Crusch was also very excited and raised his sword again.

"Everyone, pay attention--!"

However, before Crusch could finish his words, she froze in place.

Not only her, but also the other soldiers were staring at the sky in amazement.

Because at this moment, there is not one white whale in the sky, but... three.

Why? Why did one white whale become three?

What a joke?

For a moment, everyone on the ground fell into great despair.

This is understandable. Just now, there was only one beluga whale, which put them in a tough fight. Now there are three beluga whales... How can they fight them?

What the hell is this?

“Bang!”

The sword fell to the ground.

“It’s over!”

“He will be killed!!”

"I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"

“Calm down!!”

Looking at the wavering soldiers in front of him, Crusch hurriedly shouted loudly, but it was obvious that facing this unexpected situation, the problem could not be solved by simply cheering them up.

"It seems that the situation is not good."

At this moment, the priestess also came to Crusch and whispered that compared to those soldiers, she and Ais were calmer - what was a mere white whale? At most, it would fail and be eaten. How could it be compared with the goblins?

"Yes, the situation is unexpected. It's strange to say, I've never heard of white whales being social monsters before..."

"Your Excellency the Knight seems to know something about this."

"Fang Zheng?"

"Yes, just now when the old man attacked the white whale, the Knight said, 'A critical hit, entering the second stage'... Although I don't quite understand what it means, but..."

"So this is also a trick of the white whale?"

Crusch nodded.

"But we can't retreat now, and the effect of the night-repelling magic has expired."

As he spoke, Crusch looked up and saw that the bright light above his head, which was as dazzling as daylight, had disappeared. Night had fallen again. In addition, although the fog was much thinner, it did not disappear... It could be said that the situation was getting worse.

"I have an idea."

"oh?"

"but……"

"But what?"

"But...it depends on how fast everyone runs."

“……???”

After listening to the priestess's advice, Crusch frowned.

"This is indeed very risky, but we have no other choice now!"

Having said this, Crusch suddenly raised his sword.

"Everyone, follow me! Quickly! Those who give up can stay! Those who can hear the order, all follow me and charge!"

Following the order, Crusch rode on the Earth Dragon and rushed out first, and the others followed closely behind. They didn't know what Crusch wanted to do, but following their leader was the only way out!

"Mailu, Aisi! Please help stop those white whales and join us!"

"OK."

After hearing the priestess' order, Mai Lu stopped fighting the giant beast in front of her and immediately pulled back to join the others. On the other side, Ai Si and the white-haired old man resisted the attack of the white whale. Soon, they saw a group of people coming to the center of the battlefield, under the white whale flying the highest. At the same time, the other two white whales also surrounded them from the left and right sides.

"Please resist their attack again! It would be best if you can hold them back, even just ten seconds will be enough!"

"good!"

Mai Lu nodded vigorously, then faced the white whale in front of him, raised his sword, and swung it forward with force!

"Light Speed ​​Sword!"

“Swish!!”

As Mai Lu moved, a sword light suddenly burst out from her sword, and it fell from the sky and hit the White Whale No. 2, knocking the white whale to the ground. The white-haired old man on the other side also jumped up with Ai Si's cooperation, came to the top of the white whale, and stabbed it hard with the long sword.

"boom!!"

The two white whales fell to the ground instantly. At the same time, the priestess gave the order without hesitation!

“Run!!!”

"???"

Hearing this, many people were stunned, but the next moment, they felt an incomparable magical power condensing above their heads!

"It's finally my turn!"

Huihui raised the magic wand in her hand high, her eyes bright red. The power of magic swirled and gathered around her.

"Feel this great power, praise this noble destruction, call with my power, the demon at the end of this eternal day, give me your power, listen to my call, feel my will, destroy everything - Explosion!"

"This is……!?"

"Super-level magic, run!!"

For a moment, everyone dispersed, and then they saw a dazzling light falling from the sky, turning into a huge magic circle and bombarding the ground. The white whale flying the highest was the first to be hit. Its huge body made it unable to withstand the impact of the explosion magic, and it was smashed directly to the ground and collided heavily with the other two white whales.

The next moment, the earth shook.

"boom--!!!"

A mushroom cloud that was almost like a nuclear explosion rose into the sky, completely engulfing the three white whales. Violent shock waves exploded in all directions, sweeping away the flower fields in the distance.

“Cough, cough, cough…”

The priestess struggled to crawl out of the pile of dirt, then looked behind her and couldn't help but gasp.

I saw that at the place where the white whale was just now, there was only a large pit with a radius of dozens of meters and a depth of several meters. In the center of the pit, a white whale with a charred body was lying there, motionless.

"…Ais."

"Um?"

At this moment, Ai Si also crawled out from the soil next to her.

“Megumin’s explosion magic… has become more powerful?”

"Um."

Ais nodded slightly.

"Practice makes perfect, after all."

"...Yeah, practice makes perfect..."

Thinking of Huihui's persistence in going outside to cast an explosion magic every day... the priestess couldn't help but shudder.

Will we be able to come back alive in the future?

But now...

"Is it over?"

“I think so.”

In response to Ai Si's question, the priestess breathed a sigh of relief with some tiredness and observed the white whale carefully.

"According to what His Excellency the Knight said, we can eat it after removing the head."

Then, the priestess spoke.
