Chapter 52 Fighting the Demon Leopard!
Chapter 52: Fighting the Demon Leopard!
This is the darkest time before dawn.
The night was so heavy that it seemed to be unable to be transformed. The stars in the sky were dull and the jungle in the distance was as dark as a dormant ferocity, waiting for an opportunity to reveal its sharpest fangs.
But it is not at all calm. The monsters that like to come out at night are enjoying their last feast, because once dawn comes, most of them will retreat into unfathomable caves.
Leon sat at the entrance of the camping cave, staring at the distant jungle, and threw a smoked cigar into the bonfire beside him.
The chill in the middle of the night can penetrate into the bone marrow. Without this bonfire to keep warm, Leon's body might not be able to withstand it.
It is said that the dark land is also called the demonized land. The dark aura originating from the underground world constantly penetrates into the ground, changing the environment and the animals and plants in it, and allowing underground organisms to move freely on it.
If a normal ground creature enters a dark place, it will definitely be affected unless it has advanced powers such as soul fighting spirit to protect the body.
The Kingdom Temple set the Trialer mission time to three days, which is not without reason.
Due to the danger of trials, the temple does not oppose the teaming of trialists. It is allowed to give up the mission at any time and come back again next time. If the mission is completed exceeds the standard, there will be additional rewards.
But this does not prevent every trial from dying, and a group of trialists die.
The dangers in the dark place were beyond imagination. At night, Leon and others were besieged by the group of demon rats. Relying on the geographical advantage of the cave, they wiped out dozens of demon rats before they could repel the other party.
Therefore, Leon, who is responsible for the last period of duty at night, is particularly vigilant, because the closer it is to safety, the greater the possibility of a sudden danger.
He sat on the haystack, his eyes remained motionless until he saw a trace of whiteness among the mountains in the distance.
It's finally dawning.
It was dawn, and Panard and others woke up from their sleep. They didn't sleep well that night, and everyone was ready to fight with weapons at any time.
After a quick breakfast, the five-person team embarked on the trial itinerary again.
In the afternoon, they arrived at the Banshee Mountains.
The Banshee Mountains are located on the western edge of the southwestern province. The steep mountains that stretch for hundreds of miles have become the core hinterland of this dark place. There are many dangerous peaks, canyons, caves and streams here, and are named after the legend is the hometown of Banshee.
If you cross this mysterious mountain range, it will be the territory of the demon clan.
It is a mystery whether there is a banshee in the Banshee Mountains now, but it is an indisputable fact that a large number of underground dark monsters and black elves appear in it.
The garrisons in the southwest province have carried out encirclement and suppression operations several times in the Banshee Mountains, but they have suffered a lot of casualties, but they have no way to drive away the underground creatures, nor can they block the caves that lead to the underground like cows.
"We are looking for underground caves near here to see if there are any traces of black elves' activities..." Panard lowered his voice and said, "I have only been to the edge of the Banshee Mountains once. It's too dangerous inside. We can only look for opportunities outside."
"It is important to complete the task, but we must first ensure our own safety."
Panard's words were praised by everyone, including Leon. Although Leon is never afraid of challenges, it does not mean that he will rashly break into the danger of ignorance.
Even on the edge of the Banshee Mountains, the demonization here is already very serious. The vine trees that cover the sky and the sun form a maze forest, making people lose it unconsciously.
Whether it is mountains, jungles, or streams flowing through the forest, they are shrouded in a faint mist, and the air is filled with an uncomfortable atmosphere. The small sky that you can see by looking up is also gray.
When he arrived here, all kinds of strange sounds in the forest became silent, so quiet that it was suffocating. Leon and others could only hear the friction sounds of themselves stepping through the vines in the grass.
Too quiet is definitely not a good thing.
"Be careful, everyone!"
A black demon leopard suddenly rushed out of the bushes, spreading its leopard's mouth and fangs and pounced towards Leica in the air.
Leica kept walking in front of the team, and was very cautious in his actions and kept his vigilance. Although the Demon Leopard's sneak attack was very sudden, he still responded in time, jumped to the side quickly, and issued an alarm.
The demon leopard pounced on the ground, swung its long leopard tail, and turned around to launch a second attack.
Huh! Huh!
Two shuttle guns shot at it in a flash, and Leon and Panard, who were walking behind, took action almost at the same time.
The demon leopard's body suddenly shrank and suddenly jumped to the left. While dodging two shuttle guns, it landed on a collapsed dead tree.
Its reaction was rapid, its dodge and jumping movements were calm and elegant, as if it had been practiced thousands of times.
Within a distance of only more than twenty meters, the demon leopard roared at Leon and others, and the pair of dark purple leopard eyes actually showed a provocative look.
Damn! Leon felt that he and others were mocked by a wild beast. He picked up the battle axe without saying a word, and rushed forward like an arrow from a string and rushed forward to the demon leopard.
If you have a genital, stay on it and don’t move!
What Leon didn't expect was that the demon leopard hadn't run away. It opened its mouth again and spewed out a light green wind blade!
call out!
The nearly-foot-long crescent wind blade cut through the air, making a trembling whistling sound, drawing a trajectory in the air that was almost impossible to capture by the naked eye, slashing Leon's chest!
Spell attack!
Leon, who was launching a charge, was shocked. In an emergency, he made a mistake and forced his side. The deadly wind blade brushed his chest and rushed over and hit a big tree behind him.
It actually cut off a wooden vine wrapped around the trunk. You must know that the vine is as thick as an arm!
Leon, who had escaped, felt a scorching pain in his chest. The wind blade's wings cut through his leather armor, leaving a scar on his chest.
If the movement was a little slower just now, it is very likely that the result would be that it was broken on the spot!
Leon only truly realized the strength of the demon leopard in front of him. It was able to emit long-range attack spells, which meant that it was at least a second-level monster, comparable to a primary beast soul warrior.
However, the opponent's strength did not make Leon feel afraid or timid. When injured, the courage in his bloodline was completely stimulated.
Leon threw out the battle axe with his hand!
call!
He used all his strength in his body in this throw, and the heavy battle axe flashed with a captivating light and flew to the demon leopard in an instant!
Leon's counterattack was also beyond the expectations of the Demon Leopard. It hurriedly jumped up to avoid the attack, but its reaction was still a little slower.
Puchi!
A gorgeous blood flower suddenly bloomed.
The spiraling battle axe passed through one of its hind limbs and almost cut off half of its calf. The demon leopard, under the severe pain, lost balance in the air and rolled over and fell on the woodland.
Huh! Huh!
How could Panard and others miss such a good opportunity? Two more shuttle guns were shot.
However, the injured demon leopard was still quick to react. It actually rushed up again with its three-legged legs. While dodging the shuttle gun, it tried to jump along the vine to the big tree!
However, at this time, Leon rushed over. He didn't have time to pull out the giant tiger sprite sword, spread his arms and jumped out, and actually grabbed the demon leopard in the air!
Bang!
One person and one leopard fell heavily to the ground. The demon leopard struggled desperately to break free, but Leon's arms clamped it like an iron hoop.
Only by fighting in close combat can the strongest ability that the demon leopard has completely blocked. No one knows what kind of magic attack ability this demon leopard has besides the wind blade.
"drink!"
Relying on his own brute force, Leon pressed the demon leopard tightly under his body, and used his right arm to force it to wrap its neck. With the force, the muscles on his arm were raised, and the blue veins that were twisted like earthworms under the membrane could be clearly seen.
The demon leopard's neck was clattered, and the suffocation pain made its eyes and tongue protrude, causing great pain.
Bang!
The unwilling demon leopard shook its tail and pulled back on Leon's body. The power made his body shaking.
But how could Leon, who took the initiative, give it a chance to escape, gritted his teeth and endured the blow.
The Demon Leopard has no chance because Leon is not fighting alone.
Panard and others quickly surrounded him, and they all used their swords and axes to kill him alive. They had no way to display their powerful spell casting ability.
"Huh!~"
Leon took a long breath and let go of the leopard corpse soaked in a pool of blood.
Although the situation just now was extremely dangerous, there was no doubt that he made the right choice, otherwise it would be difficult to take down this fierce demon leopard.
"Lei, are you okay?" Panard asked with concern.
He saw the scars scratched on Leon's chest, and blood oozed out from it.
"It's just a little injury, it's okay!" Lei An shook his head: "You guys deal with the corpse!"
No matter how small the legs of a mosquito is, it is still flesh. Although the dark place is dangerous, the monsters hunted in it have good quality magic crystals in it, and other animals such as animal skins, claws and teeth that can be sold for money.
The matter of peeling and removing the bones of the magic leopard was naturally completed by Leka and others. Leon sat down next to the tree and untied his leather armor to observe his injuries.
What he was concerned about was that the wind blade passed through his chest, and he didn't know if it had damaged the tiger's head tattoo.
But what surprised Leon was that the tiger-head tattoo on his chest was intact and there were no traces of scratches. Instead, there were still fresh scars half an inch long on both sides of the tattoo - the wounds were healed.
It's amazing! Leon smacked his lips, but he is now accustomed to the fact that there is anything special about the tiger-head tattoo on his body.
Chapter completed!
