Chapter 488: Fighting the Seven-Headed Snake(1/2)
Chapter 488 Battle against the Seven-Headed Snake
…
The body was descending rapidly, the sharp air whistling like a knife mixed with the goose feather snow passing by like bullets, making it difficult to open one's eyes.
The bottomless abyss below is like a giant mouth of a monster, baring its fangs towards us, cheering and roaring, waiting for prey to come.
This situation is so familiar. Wasn't it the same situation when we killed Gamorro? It's just that the little ghost was there at that time, but now, the environment is even worse than that then.
Hoho!! Why do I keep encountering things like this?! As the protagonist, shouldn’t all major events triggered be romantic encounters?
I put on an ugly smile that made me laugh and cry. As soon as I opened my mouth, a big mouthful of cold wind rushed in. My mouth was instantly numb from the cold, and I quickly closed it again.
There is no other way. Although the current plan has only been conceived in my mind, I still have to give it a try, otherwise my life will be in danger.
The next moment, blazing fireworks burned instantly, covering the whole body, looking like a giant fireball falling from the sky. The fire on this "fireball" seemed to be spiritual, constantly changing and changing.
Especially on the back, it seemed that it was driven by some powerful will. The actual flame of the abyss bulged up bit by bit, and finally with a "pop" sound, it condensed into a pair of blazing, beautiful wings of fire.
When the pair of flame wings were first formed, they seemed to be unstable. The flames on them flickered on and off, as if they were about to turn into thousands of flames and disperse at any time.
But as seconds passed, the flames gradually calmed down, and finally formed into flame feathers, which were firmly attached to the wings, making the entire fire wings lifelike, and every hair on the feathers seemed to be identifiable. When it comes out, it looks like straight wings.
Ah~~, who said that otakus have no strengths? It is impossible to build such exquisite wings without a clear imagination in mind. Except for acg otakus, no one else can do it...
Okay, okay, I admit that ornithologists can also do it, will I die if I am proud of it? Also, let me explain in advance, I have never heard of things like Shakugan's Sina, imitating the U2 type I haven’t even thought about fighter jets or anything like that…
Try to flap your wings. Well, it's quite laborious. After all, the wings are not really flesh and blood growing on your back. If you want to be able to control the wings as freely as a bird, you still need a lot of training. However, to cope with the current situation, you should be able to do it. about there.
Controlling the flames on my wings, I flapped and flapped. I felt subtly that the speed seemed to have slowed down. I couldn't help but feel motivated and flapped harder. Fortunately, the cliff was high enough, giving me enough time to adapt.
After a while, I felt that the descent speed really slowed down, and I breathed a sigh of relief. It was fast enough, and even if it fell to the ground, with the thick skin of the blood bear, it probably wouldn't die, assuming there were no sharp things underneath...
"It turns out that fire can still be used in this way."
The speed slowed down and she was finally able to open her mouth. The little fox couldn't wait to look at the beautiful wings that were six or seven meters long from behind me and covered the entire sky above her head. There was a look of obsession in her eyes. .
"But why are we still descending? Let me fly, you idiot."
Later, I felt that after the falling speed slowed down to a certain level, it could no longer slow down. The S attribute of this little fox couldn't help but act out again, urging me to flap my wings faster.
"You think I don't want to." I sighed deeply, moved my eyes to the corners of my eyes, avoiding the doubtful gaze of the little fox, and muttered in a low voice.
"It's natural that I can't fly, because my current weight is hundreds of times that of Sha Na..."
"What? Sha Na...who is it?" The little fox's plush ears perked up and he asked warily.
No, I spilled the beans. Ahem, look at my full screen to erase the memory!!
"Be careful, we're about to land." Fortunately, at this time, the ground was clearly visible, so I immediately changed the subject and became careful. Fortunately, there was a large snowy slope below.
The so-called speed that is slow enough to prevent death is relative to my current state. Otherwise, a blood-cow adventurer would generally not be able to withstand such a falling speed. Therefore, the speed is actually very fast.
In the eyes of ordinary people, there is nothing wrong with saying that it is as fast as a shooting star.
"boom--"
Before the little fox could react, his body suddenly fell to the snow. The snow, which no one had ever set foot on, seemed to be buried with several kilograms of bombs and suddenly detonated. As the explosion sounded, a high line rose from the center of the impact point.
The tall snow pillars reached a height of 100 meters before blooming in full bloom.
Before the dozens of tons of snow that rushed into the sky had time to fall to the ground, another accident happened below. A huge snowman rolled out from the place where it fell, and then rolled down the landslide.
It rolled bigger and bigger like a snowball, and finally, it rolled into a big snowball with a diameter of tens of meters, making a rumbling sound and rolling down with great momentum.
Suddenly, this seemingly extremely hard giant rolling snowball cracked with cracks on the outside. From these cracks, a large amount of flames spurted out, melting the entire snowball in an instant, revealing a layer of snow from the center of the snowball.
The giant flaming bear rolled to the ground with a grunt, and rolled a long way down the landslide before coming to a stop.
"Damn it... I'm going to kill that bastard."
I finally stopped and lay down on the snow in a large shape with all my strength. The blood-red magatama pupils that once exuded violence and destruction turned into two sheets of mosquito repellent. I said some cruel words without any momentum at all.
Then there was a burst of retching.
"I...I can't spare it."
The little fox was not much better than me. It turned dizzy on the snow several times, and finally fell down.
"Speaking of which, what on earth is that monster?" After feeling better for a while, we started discussing it on the spot.
"Could it be the guardian spirit suppressed by the guardian tribe under the temple and guarding the entire temple? It must have been awakened by the battle between you and Niracek." The little fox said alarmingly, wagging its tail.
"You must have read too many chivalry novels."
I looked at her speechlessly. What good would it do to the Guardian Tribe to seal that dangerous thing under an important temple?
"It should be that Niracek mutated after absorbing the crystal. Although I don't know why he can absorb such a huge power...could it be related to the burst of blood-red light..."
I hesitated and gave the answer that was closest to the truth in my mind.
At this moment, on the high cliff ahead, in the biting cold wind, there were suddenly several slight screams of monsters. Although the sound was small, it was creepy.
"Now is not the time to discuss this. What do you think that monster is most likely to do now?" The little fox and I looked at each other and said in unison.
"Go blow up the Worldstone Temple!!"
If he wants to destroy the World Stone Temple, he must pass through the World Stone in Harrogath. In other words, he is very likely to go to Harrogath now.
"Oops, we have to stop it quickly."
I glanced at the high cliff in front of me, then turned back and asked the little fox: "Harrogas, which direction are you in now?"
I saw this little fox, with its big fluffy tail that felt great, turning around a few times, and then the tip of the brown fox tail pointed in one direction.
"It's over there." The little fox pointed confidently with his finger in the same direction as his tail.
I asked, does Tianhu’s tail also have a compass function?
The direction the little fox pointed was exactly the side of the cliff where we fell. When I looked at the top of the cliff, which was so high that I couldn't see the sky, I burst into tears.
"Say, little fox, can you show me a more convenient way to climb over this cliff?" She said, looking at her "multifunctional" fox tail swaying back and forth.
"No! No!! My tail doesn't have such a function!!!" the little fox shouted angrily, hiding its tail tightly behind its back.
Does this mean that having a compass function is a real thing?!!
"She doesn't have ears either, just climb up there." Seeing my eyes falling on her ears again, the little fox became angry, rolled up snowballs with its tail, and threw them at me.
"Okay, then I'll go now. By the way, you should be able to go back to the city here. Go back quickly and tell Grandma Mala to get her ready. If I fail to stop the monster, there will be one by then.
A precaution."
After the fuss, I straightened my face, patted my butt, and strode up the landslide.
"Do you really want to climb such a high cliff?" The little fox was stunned, as if he thought I was joking just now.
"Otherwise, what else can we do? This is the only way to catch that monster." I sighed and couldn't help but grin when I saw the worried expression on the little fox's face.
"Don't worry, it's no problem, don't forget I have this." As he said that, a blazing flame burst out from behind, and the beautiful flame wings, which were blood red with a hint of black decadence, were formed again.
Although I can't fly yet, I can still jump higher by using my strength.
"Bad guy, remember you promised me you wouldn't die." In the distance, the little fox's voice came from behind the howling snow, and then with a flash of light, he unrolled the scroll to return to the city and returned.
Sighing, I set my eyes again on the tall cliff in front of me. I just took a quick look and found that the cliff wall was not smooth and flat. There were many places to step on, and there were also protruding hard icicles to step on.
Use your strength, otherwise I wouldn't have the confidence to climb up.
Just think of it as a warm-up exercise for your newly acquired wings. Your eyes scanned around on the cliff, and you found the landing point. Then you exerted your strength with your legs, and your body instantly flew hundreds of meters into the air, and then you used the force to flap your wings.
He stopped lightly at the landing point, took a deep breath, and turned into a black shadow again...
If someone looks from a distance, they will find a black shadow with fiery red wings on its back, scurrying back and forth on the cliff that is 10,000 meters high, just like a ninja in the animation. Although the speed is indeed very fast,
…
This cliff is too high. It took us more than a minute to fall from the platform in the middle of the cliff.
But, having said that, can that weird monster with seven snake heads climb up the cliff?
Always, let’s go up there first. I gritted my teeth again, jumped hard, and jumped back and forth between the protruding rocks and icicles on the cliff.
I don’t know how long it took, but a huge protruding platform blocked the sky above. I felt happy, could it be...
With some help, I finally jumped onto the platform. As expected, it was the platform of the tribal temple we just fell off. It was a pity that such a great hidden place was suddenly killed by the seven-headed snake monster.
A small part of it was blown off, including the location of the teleportation point. It will probably be even more difficult to come here in the future.
Looking towards the direction of the temple, the top of the Nilasek Temple on the platform has completely collapsed. It looks like a long-abandoned open-top temple, and there is an extra winding path on the cliff next to the temple.
Traces of destruction spread to the top of the cliff.
That seven-headed snake did a pretty vigorous job, but as the old saying goes, people planted trees while others took advantage of the shade. This uneven trail of damage also gave me a place to stay, saving me a lot of effort.
After taking a short rest, I continued to follow this trail and quickly approached the top of the cliff one by one.
It is estimated that the height from the top of the cliff to the platform is only about one or two thousand meters at most, so after dozens of ups and downs, I have jumped to the top of the cliff.
What appeared in front of me was a snowfield that I had never seen before. The traces of the seven-headed snake spreading from the cliff to the top were not covered by the wind and snow, but they were like the clear traces left by a hundred-foot-tall giant beast.
Huge drag marks spread all the way into the depths of the white snow.
I did not rush to chase, but before the wind and snow covered it up, I observed the huge drag mark under my feet for a while. The druid career for many years was not in vain. I judged some traces.
To be continued...
