Who said this card is outrageous?

Finally, it was Zhang Che's turn to fight. After noticing that the battles on the other battlefields had already been decided, he silently gave up the idea of ​​using the [Demon Chain] and prepared to wait for his teammates to come and support him.

Chapter 252 Working Together

Bang!

A powerful punch from the fifth-tier lizardman slammed into the water armor shield. Zhang Che felt a tremendous force strike him, but he still managed to hold on and not retreat an inch. At the same time, he threw a punch back.

The power of water gathered in the armored fist, which caused the lizardmen a lot of trouble.

The characteristics of the Black Rhino Armor dictated that he could only engage in hand-to-hand combat. Fortunately, as a dragonborn, the lizardman clearly also followed the path of physical combat rather than magic.

Furthermore, the Harpy in the sky would occasionally launch a sneak attack, giving him a chance to counterattack, and for a time the two sides were evenly matched.

However, Zhang Che's Black Rhinoceros Armor was not the genuine article and required a continuous investment of mental energy to maintain its existence.

Moreover, the difference between the fourth and fifth tiers is stark, and this time, without the help of [Rainfall], coupled with the extremely high concentration of fire attribute in the surrounding environment, he doesn't even dare to use [Waterfall] now, for fear that the ice will melt away shortly after he freezes the lizardmen.

All I can say is that a counterfeit is a counterfeit. If the armor I was wearing were genuine, I wouldn't have been forced into this situation.

Fortunately, my teammates were strong enough this time. In no time, the other battlefields had already been decided, and they won all of them.

It wasn't for nothing that I've been dragging this troublesome guy along.

If everyone unites their forces, the chances of winning are very high!

The fifth-tier lizardman clearly realized this as well. Its reason told it that the best option now was to get away as soon as possible. With its speed and familiarity with the surrounding environment, it would not be difficult to escape.

If those humans dared to catch up, it might even kill a few of them.

Unfortunately, the bloodline inherited from their ancestors prevents the lizardmen from running away out of fear!

If you are facing an enemy whose strength far surpasses your own, it is not shameful to run away, but a necessary measure to preserve your strength.

But each of these humans was weaker than itself, and even if they possessed some fancy special skills, it was not a reason for it to retreat!

Thinking of this, a fierce look appeared on the lizardman's face. Then, his blood surged, and his whole body immediately seemed to boil, releasing visible steam.

Zhang Che, who was closest, immediately noticed the abnormality of the other party. The thought that "this lizard is going to fight desperately" immediately flashed through his mind. So he could no longer hold back and prepared to use the [Demon Chain] to end the battle.

What he didn't expect was that the lizardman had become much stronger after activating his bloodline. Before Zhang Che could even make a move, the lizardman had already thrown a punch at him.

bang——

Boom!

A force several times stronger than before slammed into the chest of the Black Rhino Armor, and Zhang Che immediately felt his blood rush to his head, almost spitting out his own blood.

Although Zhang Che ultimately suppressed it with all his might, the churning blood and qi within him made him realize that the opponent's punch had approached the Black Rhino Armor's limit.

If he were any stronger, he might even be forced out of his combined form!

Zhang Che's expression turned solemn. He retreated instantly, intending to regroup with his teammates before considering how to deal with the lizardman.

But how could the lizardmen possibly give him that chance? They immediately stomped their feet and vanished from the spot.

When it reappeared, it was already to Zhang Che's right, a fist condensed with dense blood-red energy, which slammed down heavily towards Zhang Che.

-

At the critical moment, the harpy descended from the sky, using the potential energy of gravity to knock the lizardman more than a meter away, causing its attack to miss and saving Zhang Che.

However, the harpy girl was then forced to suffer the opponent's revenge, as the lizardman pierced her chest and turned into a stream of light, returning to the card's original form.

After dealing with the troublesome guy, the lizardman wanted to continue attacking Zhang Che, but thanks to the time bought by the harpy woman, the others finally arrived at the battlefield.

"You are not allowed to harm Lord Zhang Che!"

A giant foot descended from the sky, its shadow enveloping the lizardman entirely.

It dared not be overconfident and had to give up attacking Zhang Che and instead dodge, thus avoiding being crushed into a pulp by the Tyrannosaurus Beast.

However, it was still grazed by the white beam of light that followed, and blood instantly flowed from one of its thighs.

That was only because his body instinctively dodged after sensing the danger; otherwise, if he had been hit head-on, he would have at least had a leg broken, even if he didn't die.

Ignoring Fu Xing's frustrated expression after his attack went astray, the lizardman had just dodged the Tyrannosaurus Beast's stomp when he heard two rapid whooshing sounds. But it was too late to dodge, and he could only instinctively raise his arm to defend himself.

puff!

puff!

No actual attack was seen, but two bloody wounds appeared on the lizardman's arm and back at the same time, with bright red blood gushing out.

The lizardman reacted quickly, unleashing a surge of fire energy from his body to stop the bleeding from both wounds.

Only then did it have time to look at the source of the attack and discover that it was a flying dragon with an entirely orange body.

Just then, the wind whistled again. Having already learned his lesson, the lizardman dared not take the blow head-on and quickly dodged it.

Swipe!

It's still the same invisible blade, or perhaps it should be called the "Air Blade".

But what the lizardman didn't expect was that because of his subconscious reaction, Zhang Che, who had been watching him for a long time, finally seized the opportunity.

[Chain of the Demon Race] Activated!

Dark green chains appeared from all directions, tightly binding the lizardman who was still in mid-air.

The lizardman instinctively tried to break free of its restraints, but it was horrified to find that not only was it unable to exert any strength, but even the surging bloodline power and extraordinary power within its body had all subsided, and no matter how it tried to mobilize them, it received no response.

how can that be!

The lizardman raised his head, wanting to question Zhang Che about what he had done to him, but all he saw was a heavily armored man in black who had already lowered his head, assumed a fighting stance, and was charging towards him.

【The Peak of the Explosive Waterfall】!

Having lost the support of supernatural power and bloodline power, the lizardman's already severely injured body could not withstand this attack and was directly hit through the heart by Zhang Che.

To be on the safe side, Zhang Che also plunged his hand into the lizardman's chest and yanked out a still-beating heart.

Now the lizardman was finally powerless to turn the tide, and his scarlet eyes completely lost their color.

Won!

Zhang Che casually put away the still-beating heart, and just as he was about to put away the [Demon Chain], an aura even more powerful than the lizardman from before suddenly entered his perception range.

The opponent was very fast; almost in the blink of an eye, they had already appeared at the edge of the battlefield.

Chapter 253 Flame Dragon Armor, Combined!

"There are still enemies! Everyone be careful!"

As soon as the words were spoken, a lizardman even larger than the fifth-tier lizardman from before appeared in front of everyone.

However, it did not attack Zhang Che and the others immediately, but only looked at the lizardman who had already been killed.

Seeing this, Zhang Che and the others dared not be careless. They quickly sent Fu Xing back to Pan Tingting and the others, and were ready to escape at any time.

If everyone wasn't worn down by the battle just now, Zhang Che wouldn't mind if they stayed to help; at worst, they could treat it as a life-or-death experience.

But now Pan Tingting has completely lost her ability to fight. Fu Xing still has some good stuff, but after the exertion just now, he himself is not able to hold on.

We can only hold back for now and wait for the right opportunity to make a move.

The newly appeared lizardman was clearly much stronger than the previous one; its height of nearly three and a half meters alone spoke volumes.

With a height difference of nearly twice that of his opponent, Zhang Che saw him as no different from a giant.

Zhang Che could only curse inwardly that Zhou Jingyao hadn't lied about this; there really was more than one lizardman with the strength of the fifth rank. He had originally thought that the other party was just deliberately fooling him.

To be honest, Zhang Che desperately wanted the other party to be lying to him, but it was too late.

"Sister Ruolan, I'll go first. You and Charizard will cover for me and try to hold them off as much as possible," Zhang Che whispered to Song Ruolan.

Having caused such a commotion, Zhang Che could only hope to attract the attention of other teams. If there was really no support, he would have to use his last trump card.

This is also why he wanted Fu Xing and the others to leave as soon as possible, so as to avoid harming innocent people.

……

With three outstanding members of their race killed in one fell swoop, there was naturally no possibility of reconciliation between the newly arrived lizardmen and Zhang Che and his group, so the battle quickly resumed.

However, compared to the evenly matched battle just now, Zhang Che immediately fell into a disadvantageous position after exchanging blows with his opponent this time.

Despite the fact that he had just fought a major battle and his condition had declined, there was no doubt about the strength of his opponent.

Fortunately, he was not fighting alone this time either. Song Ruolan, who was carried into the sky by the fire-breathing dragon, made full use of her advantages and used all kinds of arcane spells with ease.

First, several protective arcane spells added an extra layer of protection to the Black Rhino Armor. Combined with the armor's inherent stats, this finally allowed Zhang Che to withstand the opponent's attacks, no longer having to retreat a step after each punch as before.

In addition, Song Ruolan would occasionally use some transformation-type arcane magic to interfere with the lizardman, preventing it from concentrating on launching an attack on Zhang Che. For a time, the battle between the two sides entered a strange balance.

However, both Zhang Che and Song Ruolan remained on edge, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

If the weaker fifth-tier lizardman could use a technique similar to a bloodline burst, then this stronger one might be able to as well.

As expected, when he saw how difficult it was to deal with the two humans in front of him who were far weaker than himself, the lizardman knew that he had to make a decision.

Following almost the exact same process, the lizardman, whose bloodline power had been activated, shattered all of Zhang Che's protective arcane spells with a single punch, and the second punch that followed almost disintegrated Zhang Che's armor.

In the end, he had to take more than a dozen steps back to dissipate nearly half of the force of his punch before he could barely maintain the combined state.

This guy's strength has definitely reached the sixth rank!

The lizardman that just attacked was only at the peak of the fifth rank after the outburst, so Zhang Che could barely handle it by relying on his armor and the strength of his companions.

But now, he's starting to feel uncertain about this one.

On the other side, before Song Ruolan could even worry, the lizardman had already condensed a crimson energy ball in his hand and quickly and accurately threw it at the fire-breathing dragon.

The fire-breathing dragon quickly opened its mouth and spewed out a blazing flame, joining forces with its master's Arcane Torrent to fight the enemy.

boom!

After a violent explosion, smoke and dust filled the air. The fire-breathing dragon quickly led Song Ruolan away from their original position, and then a crimson energy ball exactly the same as the one from before appeared in that spot and exploded.

What's happening now is a fierce chase. The lizardman is shooting out energy balls one after another, while the fire-breathing dragon is dodging while using [Dragon Dance] to increase its speed and strength. For the time being, there's no need to worry about any problems arising.

Seeing this, Zhang Che wanted to step forward to help, but remembering the powerful punch that had almost disintegrated him, he had to temporarily abandon the idea.

After all, without the protection of this armor, a gust of wind in the battle could cost him his life. In that case, he would not only be unable to help, but would also cause trouble for Song Ruolan.

"Tsk, I never thought I'd become a burden one day." Zhang Che chuckled self-deprecatingly, but that didn't mean he was giving up; rather, he was preparing to try a new battle plan.
