Keep attacking girls and try not to be killed by them

So, if the Great Armored King Lizard just used a skill, then it can be explained.

——(I risked my life to get this piece of information... a fifth-level monster... Tsk!)

While feeling emotional, Viviana once again added the skill "Lightness Protection" on her combat boots. It was thanks to this skill that could increase her agility by 200 points that she was qualified to deal with the Great Forest Armor King Lizard.

Now Viviana has no time to think about why a fifth-level monster like the Great Armored King Lizard suddenly appeared in the suburbs of Yanji City, nor does she have the energy to consider whether there is any connection between the Green Lizard Family and this.

Even the figure who seemed to have had half of his body bitten off by the Great Forest Armored King Lizard, Viviana was unable to confirm the other party's life or death.

All she could do now was to try to find out more information about the Great Armored King Lizard in the remaining time and try to cause some damage to the other party.

Otherwise, she would not be able to say "This is my battle" in front of Benning in the future.

·

——(There's only about a minute left... Let's take a gamble and see if we can damage its eyes...!)

Viviana sensed her remaining magic power and stamina and felt that she should be able to do it.

When Viviana thought that Banning would replace her in a minute, a sense of security arose in her heart.

Viviana should have felt ashamed of this sense of security, but since the source of this sense of security was Banning, she didn't feel so disgusted.

Without Banning's support, she would not have the capital to make the next bold move.

——(Floating Crimson Silver Sword!)

——(Sword Energy Protection!)

After dodging another round of bite attacks from the Great Forest Armored King Lizard, Viviana seized the opportunity to release all the scarlet silver rapiers and added sword energy protection to them to increase their power.

Three scarlet silver rapiers split up and attacked the Great Forest Armored King Lizard's head, while the other three remained with Viviana for other uses.

The Great Armored King Lizard seemed to have sensed that it was being watched, and it controlled the vines on its back to sweep back and forth in front of its eyes, giving no chance for the flying rapiers to invade.

But just when its attention was focused on dealing with those rapiers, its real enemy, Viviana, had quietly completed her preparations.

Viviana held her usual scarlet-silver longsword in one hand and pointed it straight at the head of the Great Armored King Lizard.

The three remaining scarlet silver rapiers formed a parallel circular formation around the scarlet silver long sword, assisting Viviana in gathering a large amount of magic power into this circular sword formation.

——(Scarlet Silver Sword Formation: Annihilation Style…)

—(Fifty percent power…fire!)

As Viviana's thoughts came out, the scarlet silver rapiers in the circular formation all emitted dazzling white light. These white lights gathered one by one on the scarlet silver long sword in the center, and then shot out from the tip of the sword. A dazzling laser energy stream shot out straight, aiming directly at the head of the Great Forest Armored King Lizard!

The Great Armored King Lizard was a little late to notice the real attack. It hurriedly controlled the vines on its back to stretch out and block its head. But before its vine defense wall was completed, the dazzling and surging energy flow had already hit its head!

There was no loud explosion, no violent vibration. Viviana's "Crimson Silver Sword Formation: Annihilation Style" was a pure energy stream bombardment. After the energy stream was released, it all depended on whether the Great Forest Armored King Lizard's head was still there...

·

——(Tsk… 50% of its power, is this all it can do…)

After the release of "Crimson Silver Sword Formation: Annihilation Style", there was no smoke or dust, only the silhouette of the Great Forest Armored King Lizard still standing in the moonlight.

Viviana could clearly see that although her attack penetrated the vine defenses of the Great Armored King Lizard, it failed to penetrate the opponent's head and only burned one of the monster's eyes.

Considering the huge amount of magic power she had invested, her attack just now could be said to have been a failure.

But unlike her usual solo fights, it didn't matter if she failed this time, because...

"It's time, Viviana."

Benning had unknowingly reached Viviana's side. He patted her shoulder encouragingly and continued, "Did you hold back on that attack just now? If you had used all your strength, this guy would have been killed."

Viviana didn't know whether Banning really believed what he said or was just trying to comfort himself. In her opinion, even if she had been able to use the "Crimson Silver Sword Formation: Annihilation Style" at full power, she might not be able to penetrate the Great Forest Armored King Lizard's head.

Just as she retained her strength, the Great Forest Lizard did not use its full strength in defense.

However, none of this matters now, because Banning will verify for Viviana how durable this monster is.

"Leave the rest of the finishing work to me."

Banning said this and walked straight towards the Great Forest Lizard, but for some reason, he had no weapons in his hands.

9.107 - Flowing

Jiang Ran knew he had to hurry up.

This was because the Great Armored King Lizard in front of them had less than two minutes left before exploding, and also because the troops in Yanji City should be on the way.

If the Feiqi family's troops saw his strength, Jiang Ran would be in trouble - most of his abilities had to be kept secret in order to play their greatest role.

As for Viviana who was already present, Jiang Ran didn't mind too much, because Jiang Ran had already let her see his fighting style in Shadou Canyon and the "Maze·Green Ghost Lair". What's more, Viviana was now half his own, so being seen by her was basically acceptable to Jiang Ran.

After some thought, the only question left for Jiang Ran was, after he killed the Great Mori Armored King Lizard, would the "curse state" that caused the self-destruction that he saw in the identification information become invalid?

Jiang Ran was not sure about this.

If the self-destruct curse continues to take effect after the death of the Great Forest Lizard, then the situation will be a bit troublesome.

·

Want to take a gamble?

·

Jiang Ran hesitated this time.

(No... unless it's absolutely necessary, you must never rely on luck. If you bet wrong, you're doomed.)

Due to the limited information available, Jiang Ran was unable to speculate how this curse called "Illusory Mirage" would develop under special circumstances.

However, he couldn't just take Viviana away because the monster was about to self-destruct.

If he did so, firstly, it would be difficult to explain to Viviana why he could "predict the future", and secondly... a fifth-level experience pack would be wasted in vain, which was really a "waste of resources".

Therefore, what Jiang Ran had to do next was to kill this Great Armored King Lizard in the shortest possible time, collect the experience points, and then find an excuse to take Viviana away from the center of the explosion.

Hmm? If he could find an excuse, then Jiang Ran wouldn't have to kill the Great Armored King Lizard before leaving, right?

Well, Jiang Ran came clean. He just couldn’t bear to give up the experience points of the Great Armored King Lizard.

In the Kingdom of West, if you don't encounter a special event, you will never have the chance to see such a large experience pack.

However, Jiang Ran is not a fool who would risk his life for experience points. Since he chose this dangerous path, it is naturally because he has completed all the necessary arrangements.

(Well, try to end the battle within ten seconds.)

Watching Banning walking away, Viviana couldn't help but feel nervous.

It is no exaggeration to say that she was not as nervous as she is now when she was fighting alone just now.

Viviana now has only one thought in her mind, that is, how can Banning, with his bare hands, defeat this giant armored king lizard with thick skin and swift attacks?

What Viviana didn't expect was that her worry lasted less than ten seconds, and all that was left was endless confusion.

Under the bright moonlight, the huge Great Forest Lizard exudes an oppressive feeling like a mountain, and the young man walking towards it is as small as an ant.

However, in the blink of an eye, the young man's figure blurred for a moment, and then he appeared on the head of the Great Mori Armored King Lizard as quickly as teleportation. His speed was so fast and his movements were so sudden that the Great Mori Armored King Lizard did not even realize that the enemy was standing on its head.

The next moment, a huge black sphere appeared out of thin air on the head of the Great Forest Armored King Lizard, swallowing its head and the boy together.

Viviana didn't know what this huge black sphere was, but she could clearly see that the Great Forest Armored King Lizard was lying on the ground and twitching because of severe pain.

The vines growing on the Great Armored King Lizard's back all rushed towards the black sphere like crazy, but the black sphere was not something that could be touched...

Not only was the black sphere not shattered by the thick vines, but it swallowed up the vines as well!

While the Great Armored King Lizard was suffering severe head injuries, two black figures quietly appeared around it.

The leading black figure swung a long sword burning with blue flames, easily igniting the exposed abdomen of the Great Forest Armored King Lizard after it fell to the ground.

Then, another black figure carrying a giant beast-horn sword on his shoulder followed up the attack closely. While the abdomen of the Great Armored King Lizard had been burned and damaged, he ruthlessly cut open its belly with the giant beast-horn sword.

At this point, the belly of the Great Forest Armored King Lizard was wide open, and a blue flame flying dragon that appeared out of nowhere swooped down from the night sky. A breath of dragon flame burned into the belly of the Great Forest Armored King Lizard unstoppably, bringing the life of this monster to the brink of withering like a dead leaf in the wind.

Looking at the fierce yet well-organized battle before her, Viviana could no longer figure out whether Banning was defeating the monsters alone, or whether he was being assisted by a team of well-trained, high-level combat professionals.

By the time Viviana came to her senses, the Great Armored King Lizard's head had turned into a pool of rotten meat, and its body had been burned black and was in a terrible state.

A large amount of energy poured into Viviana's body at this time. She could clearly feel it. This was the feeling of gaining experience points after defeating a monster.

This means that Banning has killed the Great Armored King Lizard, and Viviana, as a teammate who participated in the battle, has also successfully gained some experience.

Along with the experience points, Banning also flew towards Viviana.

For some reason, Banning no longer had the composure he had just now, and kept telling Viviana to run.

"This guy has a self-destruct crystal inside his body! Viviana, run!"

——(Self-destruction...crystal...?)

The unknown concept and the sudden change made Viviana stunned for several seconds. However, due to her absolute trust in Banning, Viviana did not waste precious time questioning and confirming. Instead, she directly followed the advice and ran with all her strength.

However, what Viviana didn't expect was that even though she had run with all her strength, Banning still easily caught up with her, and without saying a word, he picked her up and carried her sideways, and continued to run with her in his arms.

At this moment, as a warrior, Viviana's first feeling was not that she had given herself away as a princess for the first time since she grew up, but that Banning could actually run faster than her while holding her in his arms!

——(This is unbelievable... No wonder the elders always say that after reaching the third level, one should not judge a person's strength by appearance.)

If she hadn't experienced it herself, Viviana would never have imagined that such powerful strength was hidden in Banning's not-so-strong body.

Then, before Viviana could finish her sigh, she saw a dazzling flash of light piercing the darkness, followed by a deafening bang. The shock wave of the explosion swept over from where the Great Forest Lizard had just been, almost blowing Viviana and Banning over.

——(It actually exploded... and the power... isn't it too astonishing?!)

Even though Viviana had seen many big explosions on the battlefield, the self-destruction of the Great Forest Lizard still shocked her.

Such a loud noise immediately alarmed the nearby Yanji City.

As the red beams of light on the four main sentry towers of Yanji City lit up one by one, Yanji City entered the highest state of alert for combat readiness.

Viviana knew exactly what this meant.

"Oh, oh no, Bam Bam Bam, put me down!"

This was the first time Viviana had reacted so panic-stricken in all the time she had known Banning.

9.108 - Postwar Anecdotes

Time goes back to a few minutes ago.

In Yanji City, in the two luxurious mansions of the Feiqi family estate, Elder Rodrigo of the Prison Red and Elder Augusto of the Dark Black were preparing to go to bed.

[Note: Don’t get it wrong, it’s not the same bed.]

However, just as they sat down on the bed, a sharp roar from a distance made them stand up again immediately.

The two elders concluded that the roar came from at least a fourth-level monster, and it was very likely on the outskirts of Yanji City.

For these two elders who are still strong, fourth-level monsters or even fifth-level monsters are not a big problem. However, when monsters of this level suddenly appear near Yanji City, it becomes a problem.

"What are the patrols usually doing...? They let a high-level monster get close to a place like this!"

The Hell Red Elder Rodrigo cursed as he put on his battle uniform and left home in a hurry.

His family had long been accustomed to this kind of situation where he could leave at any time, and continued to sleep peacefully.

To Rodrigo's family, he is the pillar of support that they never have to worry about and that will never fall.

On the other side, Elder Minghei Augusto also set off silently. Unlike Elder Yuhong who was always in a hurry, Elder Minghei would always inform his family before leaving. If his family members were already asleep, he would leave a note on the table to reduce their unnecessary worries.

·

After leaving the house, Elder Minghei could sense Elder Yuhong's presence from afar. When the two old men met, they smiled at each other in tacit understanding.

"Augusto, don't push yourself too hard."

"Haha, I'll return these words to you exactly as they are, Rodrigo."

The two old men who were seriously injured and had not yet recovered, even though they knew they could not give their full strength, still tried their best.

Since the monsters have already run to the doorstep, there is no reason for them not to go out and take a look.

But just when they were in high spirits, a deafening explosion made the atmosphere suddenly become heavy.
