Chapter 975 A little bit of brains, but not much
In the ruins, the black and red slurry was churning. In just a short while, several thick tentacles emerged from the sticky black and red slurry and waved around, as if trying to catch prey and replenish its lost energy.
At the same time, the Wood Elf Mage Group led by John successfully completed the joint spellcasting.
【Wild growth! 】
In the huge emerald green magic circle, the winding vine successfully broke out of the shell and grew. It kept drilling in the black and red mud, as if it wanted to merge with the mud.
During this time, the demon, whose main body was still in a serous state, should have noticed the existence of these vines. It condensed tentacles from its main body and rushed over directly, struggling with them. It was obvious that it wanted to expel the foreign matter that affected the reorganization of its body from its body.
From last autumn to now, the strength of the wood elf mages led by John has increased significantly. In a short period of time, the vines underneath have grown to the thickness of arms.
Although the strength of the entangled vines is much weaker than the tentacles of the evil demon, the vines were quickly torn apart by the tentacles during the fight.
But there is nothing you can do about the fact that this winding vine can grow so long!
As soon as one of the evil tentacles was torn off, two more immediately grew out on the other side, making it impossible for the evil tentacles to break free from the entanglement of the vines in a short period of time.
But just entanglement is obviously not enough.
Although the existence of the entangled vines has affected the evil spirit's ability to reshape its body to a certain extent, it does not have the ability to defeat the opponent.
As the tentacles and vines continued to tangle, the demon's huge head and part of its body had slowly taken shape.
Almost at the same time, Locke, who was also in the air, had completed the chanting of the mantra spell.
【Energy absorption! 】
Without holding back, Locke, the extraordinary wizard, went all out from the start.
At that moment, all the vines that were spread out turned into media for "energy absorption" and began to frantically absorb the energy from the evil demon.
The energy in the body was suddenly drained out in large quantities. This sudden situation caused the evil demon's body, which had already taken shape, to collapse.
During this process, the winding vines that absorbed energy became thicker and denser.
I don't know if it was due to the change in mood, but the black and red liquid began to boil.
The next second, more tentacles extended from the black slurry, trying to stop the vines from absorbing its energy.
It turns out that this evil demon might have some brains, but not much.
The moment the tentacles became entangled with the winding vines, the "energy absorption" effect of the winding vines was triggered, and began to directly absorb the energy contained in the tentacles.
The effect of "energy absorption" is like cutting off the fuel supply for individuals like evil spirits.
In terms of strength, the tentacles that were still wrapped around the vines now seemed vulnerable.
As the energy contained within was rapidly drained away, the tentacles almost disintegrated in an instant.
Faced with this situation, the evil demon seemed a little bit unconvinced, and immediately condensed a group of tentacles to grab the entwined vines, and then was defeated again without surprise.
This situation made the evil demon even more violent, and batches of tentacles were constantly condensed.
As the latest batch of tentacles stretched out, the wood elf mages in the air were surprised to find that the tentacles were not instantly defeated.
This situation made them feel a sense of crisis, and Locke saw through the trick at a glance.
It's energy output! The demons below have greatly increased their energy output to the tentacles!
Affected by the strength of the caster, the speed at which 'Energy Drain' can absorb energy has an upper limit.
Simply put, as long as the energy output by the evil spirits exceeds the absorption efficiency of "energy absorption", it can effectively prevent the tentacles from being instantly defeated by them.
At this moment, Locke didn't know whether the evil spirit had noticed this, or whether he had achieved this effect by accident.
But it is undeniable that the tentacles with the ability to fight have doubled the pressure on them.
Locke has already increased the intensity of 'energy absorption' to the limit, and can no longer increase it further.
After all, in such a short confrontation, more than half of the power of mantra in his body had been consumed.
On the other hand, the evil demon below, although it has not yet recovered its form due to their continuous suppression, the energy contained in the black and red mud is still huge.
During this process, John, who was observing the situation throughout, also reacted quickly.
After the winding vines grew to a certain size, there was no need for them to continue to use "Wild Growth". They immediately turned around and cooperated with Locke to jointly use "Energy Absorption".
Through the effect of 'energy absorption', the entwining vines can still achieve an excellent growth rate by embracing the huge energy body of the evil demon.
John and his companions cast the spell with all their might.
After performing 'Wild Growth', there wasn't much mantra power left, and it quickly ran out.
Excluding Locke, the extraordinary wizard, except John, the remaining wood elf wizards at the scene immediately turned back after their strength was exhausted, and the second team came to continue casting spells.
This is because there are not enough pterosaur riders. Otherwise, if an entire group of wood elf mages were to join together, the overall suppression power would be much stronger.
In this wave, their main tactic is to kill the evil demon below!
After their strength increased, the Wood Elf Mages provided effective assistance to Locke, causing the confrontation between the two sides to become stalemate again.
At the same time, it also gave Locke some hope.
[Can it really work?! ]
However, this situation did not last long.
The power of the Wood Elf Mages was depleted faster than he expected. As the power of the mantra was exhausted, they were all forced to retreat.
During this process, the remaining power of the truth in Locke's body was less than 20%.
The decline in power allowed the demons to gradually gain the upper hand in subsequent confrontations.
The huge body finally seized the opportunity and gradually took shape.
This situation made Locke couldn't help but smile miserably.
He did not blame the younger generations in the clan for not being strong enough. At this moment, Locke felt more regretful.
He regretted that he had not practiced more diligently. If he had been as diligent as he is now when he was young, wouldn't his strength have been elevated to a new level long ago?
This way, he wouldn't need to be so embarrassed when facing the evil demon in front of him.
Almost at the same time as this thought flashed through his mind, Locke, whose strength was quickly completely exhausted, his eyes turned black and he lost consciousness on the spot.
