Chapter 76: A Week of Harassment
Not long after, news came from Luna.
"According to observations, this leader of the Demon King's army should be the Headless Horseman. He occupies an abandoned castle in the forest to the west, and there seems to be a large army of undead." Luna said.
Li Dian nodded: "In this case, it will be simple."
"Easy? Just a hammer!" Kazuma Sato couldn't help shouting, "That's the Headless Horseman! He's the guy with the strongest melee combat ability and undead magic! How are you going to fight him?"
Darkness also said with some worry: "Even if Aqua and Megumin use explosion magic and purification magic to clear out all the miscellaneous soldiers, the biggest boss is still the Headless Horseman, the undead and so on, the Headless Horseman."
You can summon many, many more.”
"As long as you do this, it's enough. I'm not afraid of that guy in a one-on-one fight!" Li finally shook his neck.
"You are too confident..." Sato Kazuma rubbed his temples with a headache, "We haven't even left the Novice Village yet, how can we defeat the stage boss?"
Li finally patted Sato Kazuma on the shoulder and chuckled: "Don't worry, I have my own way."
"How do you plan to lure the Headless Horseman out?" Megumin asked, "It's also a problem to lure him to an open place, right?"
"This is also simple. It only takes a few days." Li Zhong said with a smile.
"ha?"
...
In the next few days, Li Zhong took Huihui to the forest to the west every day. When he saw the cliff in the distance, he used magic to carry out long-range bombing!
Li Zhong uses the siege spear, and Megumin uses explosive magic!
If Li Zhong did not throw the siege spear manually, the range of the siege spear would be very far, but the trajectory would be a straight line, so if the distance is too close, it would be very difficult to control.
But now facing the castle in the distance, Li Zhong didn't need to use his hands. The siege spear was like a missile, launched from Li Zhong's hand, and then hit the castle! The castle wall was not particularly strong to begin with.
, was immediately destroyed in half by Li Zhong's spear! Then came Megumin's explosion magic performance!
Although Megumin's explosive magic is not as effective as Li Zhong's siege spear in siege, in fact Megumin's explosive magic can still cause great damage to solid objects such as city walls, but Li Zhong's siege spear belongs to
It's just a special attack on the city, and its attack power against people is far inferior to the explosion magic.
Megumin's explosion magic can also destroy part of the castle, but it doesn't look as exaggerated as the siege spear from a distance.
After the two of them released their magic, Li Zhong immediately ran back to Axel City with Megumin before the Headless Horseman led his troops to chase him out.
And on the next day, the half-collapsed abandoned castle of the Headless Horseman was covered with a magical barrier! Li Zhong didn't notice it at first, until the impact of Li Zhong's siege spear and the barrier were in a stalemate for two days.
Seconds later, Li Zhong discovered that there was a magic barrier on the other side of the castle.
Under the protection of this barrier, the power of the siege spear was directly halved. After breaking through the barrier, there was not much power left. Only a small part of the wall was destroyed, and then Megumin's explosion magic made up for some damage.
, causing part of the Headless Horseman's castle to collapse again.
On the third day, the Headless Horseman put up two layers of barriers for his castle, but they were still broken open by Li Zhong's siege spear, and Megumin's explosive magic fell on the Headless Horseman's castle again.
The fourth day was the same, except that the Headless Horseman's castle did not continue to add barriers.
Maintaining two layers of barriers at the same time should be the limit of the Headless Horseman. The impact of the siege lance super doubles the power of the city wall. A barrier that can block half of the impact on the city wall must be of a very high level and consume a lot of magic power. Two
A layer of barrier should be his limit.
This kind of harassment lasted for a whole week! Megumin was cautious at first, after all, after releasing a blast of magic, she would be unable to move due to exhaustion of magic power.
But when this activity continued into the second day, Megumin let her mind go, and the feeling of using explosive magic with all her strength without restraint was like drinking happily after exercising in the summer.
A bottle of iced black tea at 10 degrees Celsius is as comfortable! It makes her completely unable to stop!
Until the seventh day, Megumin even started to use burst magic to beat time!
"The rhythm is okay. You can keep up with my rhythm. Let's count it as ninety points. Unfortunately, the explosion magic only has one attack. It would be more comfortable if there is follow-up damage. The rhythm is absolutely great!" Li Zhong pinched his chin and commented with satisfaction.
road.
Huihui lay on the ground and gave Li Zhong a thumbs up!
"Li Zhong, your siege spear is also great. The sound of the two layers of barriers breaking is simply the sound of nature!" Huihui said with a smile.
Feeling that the magic power in his body was almost exhausted, Li Dian nodded: "Okay, let's run away today and come back tomorrow. If the Headless Horseman can still hold back tomorrow, then he will almost start building a shed by himself.
"
That's right, in the past few days, the abandoned castle where the Headless Horseman is located has been completely destroyed. It originally covered a very large area, but now there is almost only one room left! As long as Li Zhong and Megumin come again tomorrow, that
The tall castle will disappear completely.
By then, if the Headless Horseman is not planning to take action, then Li Zhong can only admire the Headless Horseman's magnanimity.
But just as Li Zhong thought, the Headless Horseman finally couldn't hold back when there was only one room left in his castle. On the morning of the eighth day, before Li Zhong and Hui Hui had time to go to the west
When the forest destroyed the last room of the Headless Horseman, he arrived outside Axel City!
Li Zhong waited for a whole week and finally saw the Headless Horseman, a leader of the Demon King's army who was feared by countless people.
He holds a giant sword in his right hand, and holds a helmeted head in his left hand. His whole body is covered with heavy black armor! Under him is a horse of unknown breed, but it must be an undead horse. This horse has a
The Headless Horseman wears heavy black armor of the same color and is tall. The combination of the two brings a strong oppressive force to everyone.
Li Zhong and other adventurers were standing at the door of the west gate. When the Headless Horseman came, the Adventurer's Guild immediately sounded the city-wide alarm and summoned all the adventurers!
There are hundreds of adventurers, but almost all of them are novice adventurers, and only a handful of them have reached level 30!
Li Zhong, Hui Hui and others stood in the middle of the team, looking through the crowd at the Headless Horseman standing alone in the distance, and couldn't help but feel a little excited!
Chapter completed!
