Green Monster Epic

#273 - Abyssal Thorns

With the contract demon settled, Bonecrusher had no more worries. At this moment, the oak staff began to wave in the air, and the lengthy incantation gradually sounded, finally giving Joey and the others, who were fighting with Allen, a great sigh of relief.

Joey and the others were already mentally prepared for Allen's strength, but no matter how well prepared they were, when they faced Allen head-on, the boundless pressure hit them, making them feel like they were fighting a powerful monster.

Each strike of Allen's Bonecleaver was so powerful and unmatched. Dwarves have always been known for their outstanding strength, but two level 12 shield warrior dwarves could only block Allen's fierce Bonecleaver attacks with all their strength, while leaving deep sword marks on the thick shields.

As for Joey, the main attacker, his combat skills have become more and more refined over the years. The scimitar in his hand was like a crescent moon in the sky, with streamers surging between the swings, and its power was not small. However, facing Allen's simple and unadorned basic sword skills, occasionally using one or two self-created sword skills, Joey's many moves were easily resolved, let alone posing a threat to Allen.

Until Bonecrusher's magic missiles shot out, guided by mental power to automatically fly towards Allen, although the power of the missiles was not very great, it was enough to bring a little pressure to Allen, giving Joey's attack a few more chances.

Fireball, Flame Impact, Scorch, Mage Hand... various spells took shape in Bonecrusher's hands one by one. Cooperating with Joey's and the others' attack movements, they gave Allen magical strikes, and soon gained something, burning black scars on Allen's body.

However, although Allen looked embarrassed, he actually protected his vital points very well. The magic resistance of the python scale armor on his body gave Allen great help, allowing him to handle Bonecrusher's powerful spells with ease.

"Ha!!"

Allen's ultimate move, the Triple Wave, was unleashed, and a sword struck Solin's shield in front of him. Under the burst of three layers of force, Solin could no longer hold on, and retreated several steps in a row, exposing a flaw in their solid formation.

Seeing this, Thorin quickly moved one step towards the middle, trying to block the gap left by Thorin's retreat, but he didn't expect that Allen had already followed the gap and plunged into their three-person formation, colliding fiercely with Joey's scimitar. The scimitar was blasted away by the remaining power of Allen's Bonecleaver, and Allen's Bonecleaver also swung back because it lost its momentum.

Thorin seized the opportunity and slammed a shield strike, hitting Allen's waist and abdomen with the shield, preparing to knock Allen back. Allen grunted, the heavy force of the shield made his solid muscles tremble for a while, but his legs were like nails on the ground, not retreating at all. At the same time, the echoing Bonecleaver also drew an arc, and a heavy slash directly smashed towards Thorin's head, who was only a shield away from him, directly trying to chop him in half.

"Thorin, dodge quickly!!"

His brother Thorin's eyes widened, and he roared, while his whole person flew up completely desperately, smashing down towards Allen from the sky. Joey, who was closer to Allen, immediately turned his head and slashed at Allen's left rib after taking back the flying scimitar, intending to besiege Wei to rescue Zhao and let Allen turn around to block his attack.

"Crack!!"

Allen's side-step, oblique slash, backward tilt, and big step back were all done in one go. Not only did he leave a heavy wound on Thorin's body with one sword, but he also dodged Thorin's shield strike from the sky. However, on Allen's body, Joey left a white mark on the python scale armor, and at the same time, there was a faint pain in the ribs on his left side, and it seemed that the bones were a little cracked.

However, his opponent Thorin directly had one arm chopped off by himself, which almost caused Thorin to lose his combat power on the spot, causing the balance of battle to gradually tilt towards Allen's side.

At this time, Bonecrusher's wind blade arrived late, and was directly split in the middle by Allen's Bonecleaver with a straight chop. After the magic model was destroyed, the strong wind stirred in the narrow space, and the environment that had just settled down was once again filled with flying dust, and several torches were blown loudly.

"Squeak squeak ~"

Just when Allen and the others were fighting fiercely, a subtle rubbing sound like a mouse passing through came from the depths of the underground passage, but it was directly ignored by the several people fighting on the scene. Only Karl, the contract demon who was enjoying the soul crystal in mid-air, and Bonecrusher, who had been listening intently, noticed it, and both of their eyes showed meaningful expressions.

The bloody smell became more and more intense. After losing his left arm, Thorin took the initiative to withdraw from the battle circle, holding a bottle of healing potion and pouring it into his mouth. The cheeks under his thick beard were a little flushed due to the severe pain.

Without the help of his companion, the cooperation between Joey and Thorin became more and more difficult. Although Allen retained a certain amount of strength to guard against the kobold assassin Night's sneak attack, after such a long battle, he deliberately revealed his flaws several times, but he did not see Night's assassination action, which made him gradually less worried, and his hands and feet gradually let go.

"Shua!!"

Just as Allen was about to slash the dwarf Thorin in front of him with a heavy sword, a sound of breaking through the air suddenly came from behind him, directly rolling towards Allen's back.

"Hmph!!"

Allen thought that the assassin Night hiding in the dark could not bear it any longer and made a move. He twisted his wrist, and the Bonecleaver suddenly changed direction, flicking backwards, while emptying his left palm and hitting Thorin's shield with one palm. The whole person took advantage of the force to take off and fly up, just dodging the sea of fire that suddenly appeared on the ground.

The Bonecleaver behind him hit something, but it was not the dagger or Night's flesh that Allen thought it was, but something like a rope or a whip.

The sharpness of a two-handed sword is naturally not as good as a one-handed sword or a scimitar, so the sluggishness and friction from the sword made Allen a little surprised. When he looked back to check, he realized that the thing that attacked him from behind was just a vine covered with sharp thorns.

At the same time, in the dark passage extending obliquely downwards, more vines and thorns waved wantonly, as if someone was driving them, swarming towards Allen.

!!

Allen retreated instead of advancing. At this time, a raging flame was burning in front of him, and a wall of fire blocked Allen's retreat, giving Joey and the others a chance to breathe. Of course, it also allowed Allen to temporarily not have to worry about Joey's and the others' counterattack from behind.

The Raging Tide Sword was swung out, and a heavy greatsword turned into a storm of sword blades, wrapping Allen's figure and plunging directly into the depths of the thorny vines. He wanted to see what was behind this thorn that was playing tricks.

"Puff puff puff!!"

"Squeak squeak squeak!!"

Although the Bonecleaver's blade is not sharp, the destructive power brought by Allen's powerful strength added to the sword is not worse than that of an ordinary long sword. When it is cut on these vines and thorns that wave like snakes, it is also unstoppable. However, what surprised Allen was that the cut of these vines actually flowed out a fishy and foul-smelling dark green liquid, and at the same time, there was a burst of screams from the depths of the darkness, as if the plant in front of Allen was just an animal that looked like a thorn.

"Ding!! Ding ding!!"

Allen's eyes flashed, and the Bonecleaver quickly blocked in front of him. Several sharp thorns containing great strength shot directly on the Bonecleaver's blade that was blocking in front of Allen, making a clanging sound. At the same time, several stings also came from various parts of Allen's body. After all, the Bonecleaver was not a professional blocking tool, and it still missed a lot of sharp thorns that fell on the python scale armor on his body, leaving faint marks.

A pistil the size of a kobold's head suddenly stretched out from the darkness, directly covering Allen's head. The pistil, which looked colorful and gorgeous, had rows of dense thorns forming fangs at the flower bud. A dozen pistils wriggled up and down like snake heads, and there were strands of viscous liquid thickening into threads between the pistils.

Although Allen was surprised by the magic of nature, his movements were not ambiguous. The Bonecleaver made a heavy slash, directly slashing towards the oncoming flower bud, but when it was approaching the flower bud, the flower bud twisted its vines like a python, dodging the Bonecleaver's heavy slash, and flew towards Allen again after making a bend.

Allen's Bonecleaver suddenly retracted halfway through the movement, as if there was no inertia. Under the control of the muscles wriggling all over Allen's body, it suddenly swept across in one breath. The Rage Slash, which consumed a lot of rage, suddenly burst out. Dozens of vines that were facing each other retreated as if they had been hit hard, and some of them even broke in the middle. The flower bud that pounced towards Allen felt the pain like a living thing. The pistils in the open flower bud rubbed against each other and made a squeaking sound, which was the movement that Allen had heard in his ears before.

The flower bud suddenly stopped moving, allowing Allen to seize the opportunity. The Bonecleaver, which had just used the Rage Slash and was a little exhausted, slapped it down, and the heavy force directly smashed on the flower bud. More than a dozen gorgeous petals fell on the ground on the spot, but at the same time, it completely angered the flower bud in front of him.

More vines stretched over, and then Allen finally saw what his opponent looked like: it was a thorn that was completely uncountable with how many vines and roots there were, and was formed into a ball that surged towards the stone steps; in addition to the flowers that Allen had slapped to pieces before, there were also 6-7 flowers on this thorn that looked like the previous flower buds, and at this time they also opened their petals to reveal the hideous and dense fangs inside, making a squeaking sound at Allen.

The wall of fire released by Bonecrusher gradually went out. Behind the wall of fire, Joey and the others, facing this suddenly appearing abyssal thorn, also had cautious and vigilant expressions on their faces, and the weapons and shields in their hands were tightly gripped.

"Don't be afraid, everyone. I left the blood of the Abyssal Spawn Worm on the greenskin before. Now it will only attack the greenskin. We just need to restrict the greenskin's movements from the side!!"

Bonecrusher himself had already lost confidence in killing Allen head-on. The reason why he chose this ruin as the main battlefield for killing Allen was that he and the 3 adventurers he brought were not real killers. Bonecrusher believed that what could really take Allen's life was the guardian of this ruin, the Abyssal Thorn that had almost killed all of their team of adventurers who were exploring the ruin back then.

This was an Abyssal Thorn that could powerfully strangle a high-level combat professional back then. Almost no one in Bonecrusher's group could break through the opponent's defense and cause damage to it, a powerful magical plant.

This was also the only powerful existence that Bonecrusher could think of that he could design and pose a life threat to Allen.
