Chapter 252 251. Norris's Skills
Buzz——!!!
Amidst the piercing roar, the drill bit vibrated wildly, plowing through the rock wall fiercely, stirring up rubble and flying everywhere!
Facing Jida's attack, Scout Puji displayed astonishing agility! With a deft roll, he landed precisely on Jida's arm, which was vibrating violently from the impact.
"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!" The scorching hot shell burned the scout Puji's feet, and a piece of the surface mycelium was burned off, but it was just a minor injury.
Taking advantage of the situation, the scout Puji swung out his blade whip. With the help of [Sharpness LV10], the whip blade left deep cuts on Jida's hard shell.
Finally, the scout Puji took advantage of the momentum and jumped into the air, and the mushroom cannon locked onto Jida's head!
At the critical moment, Norris controlled Jida to take a step back suddenly, and the mushroom cannon hit Jida's chest hard, but was blocked by Jida's strongest protection, the yellow book cover covered with green patterns!
The explosion was powerful enough to shatter the shell, but it failed to leave a single mark on the yellow armor!
No one knows what the Yellow Book is thinking now, after all, it has no pages for typing.
Norris was not willing to be outdone, and the two mushroom cannons on Jida's shoulders roared and fired, but Lin Jun had anticipated this. The scout Puji suddenly sprayed out the jet holes on his tail, and he flew away to avoid the attack.
The scout Puji ran around Jida, not looking to win with one strike, but just accumulating damage.
"Norris, the Jida isn't agile enough to begin with. The Mushroom Cannon can only attack in a straight line, but the Blade Whip can swing out a wide range of attacks covering a medium distance! You replaced the Blade Whip with a drill, which improved its armor-piercing ability, but are you only planning to use it to smash those equally bulky giants? What will you do if you encounter such a fast and agile enemy?"
As he was speaking, another scout, Puji, also joined the battle. It was originally planned to be a 2-on-1 battle!
The coordinated attack of the two scouts, Puji, instantly put Jida into a deeper passive position, and he was caught in a dilemma and in a miserable state.
"Too weak! Norris! Is this the limit of your understanding of Jida's fighting style?!"
Norris's eyes twitched. He felt that the boss had been talking too much trash recently...
Jida, whose body was already covered with scratches, used the huge rock armor shield on his left arm to withstand the oncoming mushroom cannon.
Ignoring the attack from another scout behind him, Jida, under the control of Norris, suddenly pushed the rock shield towards the scout in front who had just fired!
"I've already told you, it's too slow. We can't catch up like this..."
BANG!!!
With a deafening bang, the rock armor on Jida's left arm exploded!
The solid rock shield instantly disintegrated into countless high-speed rubble barrages. Several sharp pieces of rubble hit the scout Puji hard in mid-air, who had no time to dodge. One of the pieces even accurately broke one of its short legs!
The impact of a close-range self-detonation is devastating!
Jida's left arm and shoulder were completely destroyed, and the two cannon mushrooms on the shoulder, which had relatively weak defenses, also died on the spot, and his entire body's shell was covered with spider-web-like cracks!
Only the indestructible yellow leather armor on his chest remained intact, emitting a faint green light.
But Norris still seized the opportunity that came at a huge price. At the moment when the broken-legged scout Puji lost his balance and fell, Jida stabbed out with his right arm with all his strength!
The drill had a terrifying rotating penetrating force, and it instantly tore the scout into flying mycelium fragments!
"That's a bit cruel, but what do you do now?"
Another scout puffed at Jida from behind, its whip blade piercing the air with a sharp sound as it sliced through the already cracked joint of Jida's left leg! The already cracked carapace broke with a snap!
Jida lost his balance and fell to one side. Before falling, Norris tried to control his remaining right arm and attacked with the drill.
However, the scout Puji easily avoided it with a nimble roll, and at the same time, with a whip in his backhand, the scout Puji on Jida's head, which served as the "eye", was split into two by the sharp blade of the whip!
Without vision, Jida was completely ruined!
It was time to declare victory: "It's over, Norris, you are..."
“It’s not over yet!”
The moment the scout's puff was destroyed, Norris suddenly pushed away the wreckage and jumped out of the puff! The mushroom cannon on his chest was frantically gathering magic power, locking onto the scout who had just passed the puff!
So tenacious?
but……
The jet hole on the tail of Scout Puji suddenly exploded, and his body suddenly shot upward, escaping from the narrow attack cone of the mushroom cannon!
Seeing that he had lost the target, Norris did not adjust the angle, but stepped hard in the air!
【Stepping into the Air Level 3】
As if he had really stepped on something, Norris used the force to leap twice and caught up with the rising scout!
Bang!
After the mushroom cannon fired, Norris was pushed into the air by the recoil under the floating mycelium, spinning, and finally fell to the ground with a "bang".
But he didn't care. After spitting twice, he shouted excitedly: "We won!!"
"Tsk... indeed, but what does this win have to do with your new drill?"
That drill was useless throughout the whole process. The first scout was defeated by self-destruction. It would have made no difference if the drill was replaced with something else.
Hearing this, the excited smile on Norris’ face froze instantly.
After defeating Norris, cattle and horses came rushing over and began to clean up the mess.
…
Actually...lost to Norris!
If I had known this, I would have announced my victory declaration later!
Ahhh! I’m going to die!
In the fifth-layer swamp, a green mushroom was twisting left and right frantically.
Fortunately, I finally diverted his attention by attacking Norris!
No, no, this time, it's just Norris who's fine. If I ever declare victory in public and then get defeated again, I'll be so embarrassed I'll explode! I have to be more careful with my BB!
To be fair, Norris's performance actually exceeded Lin Jun's expectations. He originally thought that Norris would be qualified if he could defeat a scout.
As for the last crucial [Step into the Air LV3], it is a new skill that Norris obtained after he was promoted to level 30 silver.
Simply put, it is a double jump. Upgrading can shorten the usage interval, and at a higher level, it may even allow a triple jump.
Lin Jun knew this a long time ago, but he didn't care at all. In Lin Jun's opinion, this thing was quite useless. If he had that much energy, he might as well just fly...
When Norris finally counterattacked, Lin Jun could actually have let the scout Puji retaliate with a blade whip before being hit, so that both sides would be injured.
But he was just accompanying Norris to test his fighting ability. Even though he fought so hard, he was still a loser on another level.
——
Although he lost, it was just the first kill of the tailless lizard man, which cannot be considered as strength.
Scout Puji was not born for fighting, so Lin Jun was very satisfied that he could fight to this level.
Now it’s time to explore!
Lin Jun first set his sights on a fissure in the dense forest that was obviously rich in resources.
However, before the scout Puji could move, there was movement on the other side of the rift!
On the fifth floor, two dwarves screamed and fell out of a crack suspended in mid-air, emitting a faint curse, disturbing old Dylan who was dozing in the incense.
