Griffins are not stubborn people who don't know how to seek benefits and avoid harm. There is definitely something wrong with them attacking an organized team without stopping. Liking challenges does not mean liking death, otherwise this species would have become extinct hundreds of years ago.

But you can't explain the problem to it, it's not a tree spirit.

Then do them!

As Lan ran, he opened his attribute panel.

Mission: City Defense Iron Guard 2: Isolated and helpless]

After several battles and Ciri's mission, his experience points have almost reached the point of leveling up. If he kills these two griffins and completes this demon hunting mission, he will be able to level up!

He added a skill point gained from absorbing the Water of Brokilon to [Precision Smash]. Facing a monster like the griffin for the first time, he needed to increase every bit of his strength.

[Precision Heavy Attack]: Quick attack critical hit chance increases by 6%, quick attack critical hit damage increases by 45%. Adrenaline poison increases by +3% (3/5).

Lann suddenly felt that the flesh and blood in his body was expanding and then contracting. Every muscle fiber seemed to be steaming, and strength was surging up.

Come on! Lann roared in his heart.

See if it's possible to hunt monsters alone as a mortal!

The griffin, who had fallen to the ground in a daze, shook his head, looked up and saw Lan, and immediately stood up.

This beast was almost as tall as Lan when it was lying down, and when it stood up, Lan could only reach the height of its waist. With a sharp and piercing howl, a sense of oppression mixed with deafening sound waves enveloped Lan.

The griffin on the ground was far more oppressive than the griffin in the sky!

Lann switched from running to tactical steps when he was ten yards away from the opponent, but he was still careless and entered the attack range of the griffin.

He still knew too little about demons and monsters.

The griffin is the perfect combination of a cat and an eagle. When in the sky, it has the posture of an eagle; when on the ground, it fights like a cat. It is an animal that can firmly occupy the top of any food chain.

Lann only felt that the black shadow that was not far away just now suddenly enlarged in front of his eyes, like a ghost rushing towards him in a horror movie; and this shadow was abnormally huge, and it was accompanied by gusts of fishy wind.

Without any hesitation, Lane performed an action that was already deeply engraved in his muscle memory: rolling.

With a "bang", dust flew up and a deep mark was carved on the earth, and Lan rolled out from under the griffin's claws as if he did not exist in this dimension.

A hint of confusion appeared in the fierce eyes of the griffin. It had never seen such a creature before. It clearly felt that it had hit the target, but...

Compared to the griffin, Lann reacted faster. Tactical rolling was the best transition to subsequent attacks. Now the griffin on the opposite side was just missing its heavy attack and its center of gravity was lost.

Without any hesitation, Lann turned around and slashed at the griffin's hind legs that were supporting its body with a fierce sword.

It was clearly just a hastily connected attack, a light slash without the power of the waist and legs, but the force it unleashed was comparable to that of splitting Mount Hua with a heavy axe.

This is the [Quick Attack] basic attack that Lann has invested the most skill points in to enhance!

The griffin's hind legs were not protected by thick feathers, and the tough flesh could not withstand the sharp sword. The steel broke into the flesh and fascia, almost cutting off most of the claws on the spot.

The griffin lost its balance and had been relying on its powerful hind legs to adjust its body. After losing its support, it fell directly to the ground, its wings and tail flailing wildly, and dust rose up in the air.

Lann rolled to avoid it, looking for the opportunity to strike again. This was a top hunter whose physical fitness was superior to his own in all aspects, and hunting it required great patience.

The huge griffin flying in the sky echoed the miserable roar of the griffin on the ground. The fight between Lann and the griffin attracted most of its attention, making it no longer as calm as it was at the beginning when it was teasing the warriors.

The big griffin tried to swoop down to support its mate several times. But how could the warriors, with their combined strength, let it do so? Every time the beast swooped down, it was forced back by a hail of arrows, mixed with the sharp blades of Ellie and Ace that were pointed steadily at its vital points.

Apart from these two elite archers, the one who caused the most damage to the Griffin was actually Levin. His father was killed by the Griffin while patrolling with the soldiers.

At this time, Levin's eyes were full of anger, but he was not reckless. He knew that the result he wanted was to kill the enemy instead of simply venting his anger and attacking to his death. At the same time, he was also good at archery. Although not as good as the tree spirit and Ace, he could still cover his teammates and cause considerable interference to the big griffin.

After a few more rounds, everyone was confident that they could knock this big griffin to the ground.

Thanks to the good combat environment created by his teammates, Lann seemed to have found back the feeling of killing monsters above his level in the game. He dodged attacks and suddenly attacked with his long sword which was as good as a heavy weapon.

Unlike in games, real life has no health bars, and all creatures are made of flesh and blood. If you chop their legs, they can't jump, and if you chop their wings, they can't take off. This is different from monsters in games where even a little bit of health can still exert 100% combat power, and even the more health you have, the higher the attack power.

Under Lann's guerrilla warfare, the griffin soon became dying. Most of its limbs were broken, and the feathers on its wings were soaked with blood. It could only turn around in vain and scream miserably.

This is the effect of the full-level [Unmovable as a Mountain] combined with the high-level [Quick Attack] basic damage.

It's time, Lan thought.

He rolled over again to avoid the griffin's final attack, and Lann's sword was about to slash across the griffin's neck with an arc of light like a full moon. However, at this moment, Lann suddenly heard the warriors' screams of fear.

"My Lord Earl, be careful!"

Even louder than this scream was the howl of a giant griffin.

It was shot down.

Facing its dying partner, it finally ignored its injuries and flapped its wings to swoop down. In a single breath, seven or eight arrows were embedded in its abdomen, wings, and chest, and one arrow pierced its left eye with great precision.

But the Griffin was much larger and stronger, and it could have righted itself before its wings lost control.

Of all the beasts used as heraldry, the lion and the griffin are the most noble and pure; the griffin is a creature that has only one mate for its entire life; the griffin is often considered a symbol of courage, loyalty, and fighting spirit.

The moment the silver sword was swung out, Lan En had a kind of ethereal feeling as if a master who had practiced swordsmanship for decades possessed him at this moment, and all the power of his body was so perfect at this moment.

There was a critical hit.
