Skill extraction from Dragon Clan

Chapter 246 Giving Up and Windfall

Bang!
It was another heavy punch with magic power, and Zheng Shu waved his glowing arms and sent the lion flying again.

Taking a short breath, seeing the unscathed lion getting up from the ground again, Zheng Shu felt a toothache for a long time.

Facing this kind of defensive power that is famous in the entire ancient Greek mythology, Zheng Shu had to admit that he really felt a little helpless now.

At the beginning of the battle, Zheng Shu also tried to break the lion's defense with his own attack.

He once tried to use [-]% of his physical strength to release Yanling, and he also concentrated all the energy of Yanling on the mace, gathering the terrifying energy in the light cannon that could have been released hundreds of meters long and destroyed a forest At this point, try to rely on this extremely concentrated power to break through the opponent's defense.

But the result surprised Zheng Shu. Theoretically speaking, the mace, which can cut off any material, only caused a small part of the lion's hair to appear a little scorched and curly. Let alone hurt the other party, he It didn't even break through the lion's outermost fur defense.

And within a few minutes, even the scorched hair had completely healed itself, returning to its original smooth and supple appearance.

As a result of this attack, Zheng Shu had no choice but to use a "resurrection" to recover his physical strength and injuries in the face of the lion, which was furious because of the damage to his hair.

In addition to this unbreakable defense, the sharpness of the lion's claws and teeth is beyond imagination.

The mace that Zheng Shu had just been repaired by Apollo, the sun god, was scratched with a deep paw print, and the hard dragon scales growing on his body felt soft in front of the opponent's teeth. Like biscuits, he has no defensive ability. In the end, the distressed Zheng Shu simply dropped the mace and only used his fists to fight the lion.

Unexpectedly, because all of Zheng Shu's attacks could not have any effect on the lion, after discarding the mace, due to the sharp increase in dexterity, Zheng Shu's injuries began to decrease.

Because no matter whether the lion was used or not, it was impossible to cause substantial damage to the lion. In addition, after discarding the weapon, the physical exertion was greatly reduced, and Zheng Shu's situation became better invisibly.

Afterwards, Zheng Shu also tried to deal with it by studying how Heracross defeated it in the myths and legends, but in the actual operation, Zheng Shu found helplessly that at least he couldn't do it now.

The most critical reason is—his strength is too small.

Before that, what Zheng Shu was most proud of was his violent power. Even before he learned how to release his magic power, his power had already reached an astonishing level. It can be swung and used in combat with ease.

And after learning the technique of releasing magic power from Vera, Zheng Shuneng's instant burst of power has risen several notches.

He originally thought that in this world, apart from some top behemoths and gods, there should be no creature stronger than him, but now this lion let Zheng Shu know that he was thinking too much, and the water in the Age of Gods was stronger than he imagined. Much deeper.

——The strength of this lion is actually about the same as Zheng Shu's normal strength!

And because of the difference in size and weight, Zheng Shu was at a disadvantage in the strength test with the lion from the very beginning.If he hadn't learned how to release magic power, he could greatly improve his strength in a short period of time. Zheng Shu even doubted that he would be beaten by this lion all the time.

This fact even made Zheng Shu doubt his life.

You know, when he was on the nameless island, Zheng Shu also asked the three Gorgon sisters, and learned from them that in terms of pure physical strength, he was at the top level even compared to dragons of the same age.

As a result, after coming out of the island, first the beetle was in charge, and now it was the lion, each of which was not weaker than himself.

Zheng Shu fell into great confusion. Could it be that in the Age of Gods, dragon species was just a unit of measurement?

All in all, because of the small difference in strength, Zheng Shu's plan to hang his head failed.

Even if he used his magic power to press down on the lion and strangle it's neck in a short time, Zheng Shu couldn't keep strangling the lion's throat to make it unable to breathe while the lion was struggling violently.

As for saying that the hand was stretched from the mouth to the throat and the throat was severed to cause death, that is even more nonsense.

Not to mention that the lion's visceral defenses are also quite good, whether Zheng Shu's hand can hurt his throat is still a question.The teeth in the lion's mouth are not much more blunt than its claws. If Zheng Shu dares to put his hand in, he dares to bite down. At that time, he will just give him an arm as food for nothing.

However, Zheng Shu was not the only one who was disgusted in this battle, this lion also felt very disgusted.

Unlike the prey that could be easily captured in the past, the strength of this prey was actually comparable to his own, and it was even better in terms of speed.

In addition to these two points, the recovery ability and physical strength of this prey are also so strong that the lion is unbelievable. It has obviously caused damage, but the wound will be completely healed in the blink of an eye.

Moreover, the strength of the opponent will occasionally increase explosively. Although he will not be injured, the pain will not decay.

At the beginning, the lion really wanted to capture Zheng Shu as its own food because of Zheng Shu’s offense, but as time passed, the two sides were exhausted from torturing each other, and the lion’s inner thoughts gradually changed. Now it just wants to Let this troublesome fellow leave his territory.

It's a pity that at this point, it's Zheng Shu who doesn't want the other party to leave.

As the overlord of this jungle, the lion naturally does not allow himself to show fear in front of other creatures, so facing Zheng Shu's luck, he can only bite the bullet and continue fighting.

……

……

Bang!
Another muffled sound of physical blows came from the jungle, but this time the sound was much smaller than the previous roar.

Zheng Shu felt helpless looking at the lion being kicked away by him. His strength had obviously weakened a lot this time. The lion just slid on the ground for a few meters and then stopped. It didn't even break a big tree.

Panting heavily, a large amount of magic power from the air continuously gathers into the body relying on breathing, and penetrates into Zheng Shu's various muscles to restore his state.

But no matter how these magical powers are replenished, Zheng Shu's body is like a bottomless pit that cannot be filled, which shows that Zheng Shu's body and physical strength have indeed reached the limit state.

But compared to Zheng Shu, the lion's condition is even worse.

Ten minutes ago, the originally lazy and proud lion had already curled up completely, in a state where it only took beatings and did not fight back.

As a creature, no matter how strong a lion's defense is, its own energy reserves are limited.

Up to now, Zheng Shu has even clearly felt that the lion has lost a lot of weight.

The energy substances stored in the body are almost exhausted, and even the magic power is in short supply. The originally lustrous and soft hair has become dry, because the subcutaneous fat in the body has been consumed a lot, and the outer skin seems to be a little loose. This lion now It looks completely malnourished.

Of course, Zheng Shu's own condition is not much better.

But in this state now, Zheng Shu's advantage as a dragon species has finally emerged. Every time he breathes, his body will generate a lot of magic power out of thin air. Coupled with the supplement of magic power absorbed from the outside world, Zheng Shu's endurance far exceeds that of a lion. .

Glancing at the motionless lion lying on the ground, Zheng Shu gasped for breath several times, finally let out a long sigh, and sat down on the ground.

The other party has been beaten by him for more than ten minutes without fighting back, but even in his heyday he was unable to break through the lion's defense. Of course, he would not cause too much damage under such severe fatigue, so Zheng Shu simply gave up and continued to attack.

After all, it was quite a test of willpower for him to maintain such a high-intensity battle under extreme fatigue.

"Hmm..." Realizing that Zheng Shu didn't continue to attack him, the lion lying on the ground in the distance whimpered.After quietly looking up, confirming that Zheng Shu was indeed sitting on the ground and did not continue to attack...

Swish!
The lion jumped up suddenly at a speed that was completely out of proportion to its own size, and disappeared from Zheng Shu's sight after jumping a few times in a row... It actually escaped.

Zheng Shu stared dumbfounded at the back of the lion fleeing. Although he still seemed a little staggered when running, it seemed that he hadn't fully recovered his strength, but the lion did try his best to escape.

The expression on his face struggled a few times, Zheng Shu finally gave up his plan to catch up, and at this point, he already felt disgusted by this kind of endless battle without any result.

"If you run away, just run away, anyway, my goal has been achieved, I will come to settle accounts with you after I have strengthened the template." Zheng Shu thought fiercely in his heart.

He felt that his eyelids were becoming heavier and heavier. After all, he hadn't slept for several days, and he had been in the middle of a high-intensity battle. After losing the support of his will, the accumulated fatigue immediately surged up.

Zheng Shuqiang climbed up the tree, found a suitable branch to lie down on, and closed his eyes.

……

……

"!!!"

Zheng Shu, who had fallen into a deep sleep, woke up suddenly, because his perception told him that a creature that was extremely threatening to him suddenly came around.

Looking up, it was almost dusk, and the biological clock told Zheng Shu that he had been sleeping here for a whole day.

Feeling the state of the body, after a whole day of dormancy, the physical fatigue has disappeared. Although it has not fully recovered the state of victory, it is enough to support the next battle.

Zheng Shu opened his eyes wide and searched around to avoid being attacked from the dark. He felt that it was very likely that the lion came to take revenge after resting.

Boom boom boom!
"Hello, little brother, I want to ask you a question."

The big tree that Zheng Shu was in suddenly vibrated, and when he looked down, a strong man who was several heads taller than him was looking up at him under the tree.The vibration just now was caused by him knocking on the tree in a way similar to knocking on the door. The seemingly light knock caused the big tree hugged by the two to vibrate violently.

"Ah! Sorry, isn't it my little brother?" Hercules saw Zheng Shu's face clearly after he lowered his head, and immediately scratched his head in embarrassment.

"No, you're right, I'm a man." Zheng Shu turned over and jumped down, feeling the constant sense of crisis coming from his perception, Zheng Shu instantly knew the identity of the strong man in front of him.

"Brother, you are really good-looking." Hercules smiled honestly, and waved at Zheng Shu, "That's right, I have something to ask."

"Well, of course there is no problem, my name is Zheng Shu, how about you?" Zheng Shu nodded gently, and stretched out his hand by the way.

Hercules stared blankly at Zheng Shu's outstretched hand, but quickly understood what the other party meant, and imitated Zheng Shu's way and held out his hand together with him: "My name is Hercules, come here It's to hunt down a mighty lion, I wonder if you have any clues, little brother?"

[The user has come into contact with a carrier containing an unknown factor and has started to test the sample]

【checking……】

[The test is completed, and a strengthening template has been set up based on the carrier sample]

Looking at the information on the panel, the smile on Zheng Shu's face became brighter: "You don't have to be so polite, I also encountered that lion a few days ago, and I was beaten badly by it. I would be grateful if you can kill it. Endless."

"I see." Hercules nodded clearly, with a serious face on the surface, "So the clothes on your body were damaged in the battle, right? I thought you liked this style."

"Oh?" Zheng Shu's face froze.

He lowered his head and glanced, he was actually naked now... This is also a matter of course, the lion's claws are so sharp, and the clothes on Zheng Shu's body are not as hard as his scales. Impossible to save.

At the very beginning, Zheng Shu might feel a little ashamed when his clothes were broken, but because this is the forest and no one else saw him, Zheng Shu simply let go and didn't care about the clothes anymore.

And at the back, because he had been fighting for five days and five nights, Zheng Shu had already gotten used to the feeling of not having any clothes on his body.In addition, the defense of his skin is strong enough, even if he lies directly on the tree trunk, he will not feel any discomfort, so that Zheng Shu unconsciously went into a streaking (harmonious) state.

(PS: Comments seem to have resumed, and this time the speed is much faster than before.)
