Chapter 145 Chapter 142: Energy Flow Explodes

"Yuna, tell Captain Ryan to come quickly for support." Nolen looked down at the battle between the Gaia worm and the Alto City troops in the sky.

"I think we had a great time."

"Copy that." Yuna reconnected with the new flight component in the air, turned around and flew towards the pass.

At this time, under the command of Ogoang, the Alto City army quickly formed an array.

The knights picked up their bows and arrows, the mages chanted spells, and the rest of the soldiers set up crossbows.

Then, a rain of arrows mixed with various colorful spells, and a massive volley rushed towards the Gaia Worm.

"Woo-"

The Gaia worm's body slapped the ground, and with a "rumbling" sound, the rock walls rose up like rock waves.

The rock wall blocks most ranged attacks, but some high-level spells and crossbow bolts break through the defenses, blasting clouds of dust behind the rock wall.

"This is..." Ogang's expression changed.

But this time the knight's sword blade collided with the silver-gray scales, and the resistance coming from it was much greater than before. The tip of the sword barely penetrated an inch and a half before it was difficult to penetrate further.

Even Nolen in the sky noticed something strange. For an extraordinary person who could sense magic, this kind of movement was too obvious.

Under the influence of the eighth-level power, the silver-gray scales under his feet were lifted up by him, including flesh and blood!
The gray rotting aura seeped into the wound through the sword blade, causing the Gaia worm to struggle violently in pain.

Under its effect, the silver-gray scales that were hit began to become necrotic and could no longer freely transform into the thorn form.

As he swung his sword, a circle of gray shadow rippled along the trajectory of his sword swing, cutting off all the thorns around him that were stabbing him.

It is indeed a special spell! Nolen's eyes were filled with brilliance.

At the same time, the earth shook violently, and its intensity was much more powerful than the earthquake Levi had just caused.

When the smoke dissipated, only a deep pit remained on the ground, and the Gaia worm was nowhere to be seen.

Effect: Fully activate the magic core, form a magic amplification field, increase the level of magic output, and all spells and combat skills cast using magic within the duration will be strengthened.

Then, its huge body fell to the ground, and it just fluttered its hundred-meter-long torso, sweeping back and forth from left to right.

Ogeang felt the violent vibrations from far to near coming from the ground, and his expression changed: "Quickly spread out, the attack is coming!"

"Ah-"

The next moment, the Gaia worm burst out from under the feet of the Alto City troops.

"boom!"

As a high-level monster, similar to Xia Huilong, Gaia Worm also has its own unique tricks.

It opened its abyssal maw, just like a whale vacating the water to prey on seabirds, and stuffed humans on the ground into its mouth along with rocks and soil.

In the center of the earthquake, everyone in the Alto City troops was lying on the ground, and it was difficult to even maintain balance.

"Shoot-"

Materials needed:
1. The core of the Gaia worm.

Screams came one after another. Faced with the absolute size gap, these Alto City soldiers had no ability to resist and were thrown away and crushed by the Gaia worm.

And while the soldiers were fleeing in panic, Ogang finally took action.

A "crunching" sound sounded on the surface of the body. The silver-gray scales around it began to shrink even more closely, and the body length also quickly shrank from the original approximately one hundred meters to about forty meters.

But there were thousands of Alto City troops gathered together, how could they disperse so quickly?
"咚咚-"

"咚咚-"

"Escaped?"

However, Ogang reacted faster. He pulled out his knight sword and used the combat skill "Ember Slash".

Knowledge points +260.

Not only that, just listen to the angry roar of the Gaia worm, and the originally silver-gray scales actually began to show a translucent bright red!

The Gaia worm sensed the danger, and it repeated its old trick. The silver-white scales on its body suddenly stood up with spikes.

After actively reducing its size, its defense has been considerably strengthened.

He could feel the magic reaction of the worms under his feet getting stronger quickly!
That bright red color is none other than the concrete manifestation of magic power compressed to the extreme!
"The concentration of magic power in the Gaia worm is increasing!"

It was as if a blazing stove had been set up in the cold room, and the flames burning inside were so strong that they were about to jump out of the stove and ignite the entire room!
At the same time, the book of omniscience began to turn the pages:
"The eighth-level special spell "Energy Burst" has been recorded.

This move actually caused damage to the Gaia worm. Ogang felt confident. He held the knight's sword backwards and stabbed it at his feet, then pulled hard.

Ogang wanted to repeat his old trick and continue to pry open the scales to aggravate its injuries.

The defensive formation of the Alto City troops was easily broken through.

2. Gaia worm’s energy conduction wire. "

Ember Slash is his famous stunt, which can cause wounds caused by attacks to lose their ability to heal and control themselves.

He first hid in the crowd, then grabbed the Gaia worm's blind spot and jumped up onto its back.

After reaching the eighth level of extraordinary level, if there is no comparable strength to compete with it, the human sea tactic is a joke.

Then, the thorns affected by the gray shadow began to turn gray and dim from the cut surface, and quickly spread to the entire scales.

It has been active underground all year round, feeding on the abundant energy of the earth's veins. Over time, the magic power accumulated in its body is larger and more pure than ordinary eighth-level magic beasts.

And "Energy Flow Burst" can increase its magic output again, bursting out with more powerful power than before!
"What the hell is this..." Ogoang lay on the Gaia worm to prevent himself from being thrown out.

Although he didn't know what happened to the Gaia Worm, he knew that he must not give up the advantage he had just gained at this time.

Because he can't outrun the Gaia worm that can escape from the ground, if he wants to survive, he must cause enough damage to it and fight it off.

The injuries caused by the "Ember Slash" just now are still not healed. This may be his only breakthrough in defeating the Gaia Worm.

"Om-"

The next moment, even the surface of the earth appeared hazy red, and under the spell cast by the Gaia worm, a sudden gravity wave enveloped Ogeon.

Ogang felt as if the mountain was pressing down on him, and his whole body suddenly became extremely heavy.

He knelt down on one knee, gritted his teeth and unleashed his coercion to counter it.

The coercion of the eighth-level knight is the prototype of the "domain". After the coercion is developed, it can not only reduce or even exempt the influence of the surrounding environment on itself, but also cause dual mental and physical pressure on the enemy.

Both are eighth-level extraordinary, so it stands to reason that the pressure he exerts should be enough to offset the negative impact of the same-level restrictive spells on him.

However, with the increase of "Energy Explosion", every spell cast by the Gaia Worm at this time has reached a super-level power, which cannot be easily offset by the pressure of the eighth-level knight.

Then, countless glowing red stones floated into the sky and shot towards Ogang.

Due to the constraints of the gravity waves, he was fixed on the back of the Gaia worm and was unable to maneuver. He could only watch the overwhelming rocks coming towards him.

"How could I die here? I almost succeeded!" Ogang's blood was aroused, and he simply gave up dodging. The corrupted gray shadow was wrapped around the sword again, and he aimed at the wound on the Gaia worm's back. Another stab.

"Pfft-"

The sword blade sank into the wound, and at the same time, he was buried in the overwhelming rocks.

"boom!"

A violent wave of magic power came from Ogeang, shaking all the rocks away.

His eyes were bloodshot, his armor was dented in many places, his expression was as ferocious as a ghost, and he continued to stab the wound on the worm's back with one sword after another.

At this point in the fight, both sides have been trading injuries for injuries.

But obviously, the huge Gaia worm has even greater vitality.

Another wave of airtight stone rain came, and at the same time, the originally downward gravity wave suddenly tilted sideways.

The two waves of stone rain amplified by the "Energy Explosion" shot holes in Ogoang's armor. He could no longer keep his center of gravity and flew backwards from the Gaia Worm.

The next moment, sharp thorns pierced the ground beneath his feet.

Ogang barely raised his sword to resist, but with the increase in "energy flow burst", the hardness of these glowing red thorns increased again, and they could no longer be easily cut off by him.

"Soon-"

"Soon-"

"Soon-"

More ground thorns swarmed out from the ground and stabbed directly at Ogeang in mid-air.

Unable to borrow any help, this was already a dead end. Ogang's eyes widened and he stabbed through the broken armor several times, stabbing him to the core.

"Woo-"

The situation of Gaia Worm is actually not easy. After being stabbed continuously by "Ember Slash", the rotten aura has spread to half of its back, and orange-red blood like magma gushes out from the wound.

But a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. A monster of this size can withstand such damage, but a human eighth-level transcendent is not so resistant to beatings.

It jumped up, opened its bloody mouth, and bit Ogoang who was skewered in mid-air by ground thorns and was already on the verge of death.

Suddenly, a faint fire lit up in the sky.

Just when the duel between man and beast was about to decide the winner, Nolen, who had been watching coldly from the horizon, took action.

Ogeang's soul body is constantly weakening, and he is only one step away from death, so he sets his target on the Gaia worm.

He was also afraid of the Gaia worm that entered the "energy flow burst" state. If he didn't take this opportunity to weaken its combat effectiveness, it would be a lot more troublesome to deal with it later.

"boom!"

Gangnir's muzzle roared, and the steel nails came out, shooting directly at the wound on the Gaia Worm's back.

However, a hundred meters away from the Gaia worm, due to the influence of the gravity field, its flight trajectory shifted slightly, and it only hit the silver-gray scales next to the wound.

Fortunately, all the scales in this area were injured by "Ember Slash" and its defense was greatly reduced. The steel nails penetrated it smoothly and sank into the Gaia Worm's back.

Hit by the steel nail, the Gaia Worm's body visibly stiffened for a moment.

A pool of blood erupted from the wound where it was shot, and it flopped to the ground.

The red light on it also dissipated at this moment, and it forcibly exited the "energy flow burst" state.

"Woo-"

Gaia worms squirmed on the ground, raising their heads toward the sky and hissing menacingly.

"Can you still move after being hit by a steel nail?"

Nolen retreated invisibly, secretly surprised.

At first, even Xia Huilong couldn't withstand Gangnir's sniper attack, but Gaia Worm was able to withstand several attacks from the eighth-level knight and then eat another steel nail. Its vitality was extremely tenacious.

However, as long as it can definitely cause damage, sooner or later it will be exhausted.

After being hit by the steel nail, the Gaia Worm was also severely injured and its movements were much slower.

At the same time, it suddenly sensed that another powerful aura was approaching it. It no longer hesitated and squirmed into the ground.

"Captain Ryan's support has arrived." On the other side, Yuna came with reinforcements.

Because the road was blocked by destruction, Ryan and the elite knights could only abandon their horses halfway and walk on foot, and they arrived later in the evening.

"The timing is just right."

Nolen nodded. After being ravaged by Gaia worms, the large army in Alto City died and fled, almost losing their ability to resist.

"Ask them to clean up the battlefield. I'll go check on the situation of Flamel's convoy."

"Well, I'm with you."

Nolen and Yuna fell in the direction of Flamel's motorcade. Ryan looked at their backs, then looked at the messy battlefield in front of him, and sighed:

"The battle is over. It seems we are one step late."

With that said, he walked forward and came to Ogang:
"It's really ironic. Instead of being killed by a monster after using such a despicable method, it would be more honorable to die in an upright duel with me."

Ogang was wounded all over. He was stabbed in the chest by the ground. Knowing that he didn't have much time left, he coughed up a mouthful of black blood and said in a hoarse voice:
"Haha...it's just your luck this time.

"Alto City has no choice, maybe it can't escape the fate of defeat no matter what, so where to die is not death?
"Just struggle and see if good luck can always favor you. Maybe our today will be your tomorrow, hahaha..."

"I won't bother you anymore." Ryan cut off his head with a sword.

good luck? Maybe there is.

But Linfeng City’s success today was not due to pure good luck.

If you have witnessed Nolen's alchemical invention with your own eyes and visited the military's alchemy factory, Ogeang will naturally understand that the current Linfeng City and Alto City are no longer the same level of power.

"Knights obey!"

He turned his head and shouted to the elite behind him, "Pursue the remaining Alto City troops. Anyone who refuses to surrender will be shot to death!"

"Yes!"

The general was dead, and the troops in Alto City left their baggage on the ground and fled.

Nolen quickly found the captured Flamel convoy and landed with Yuna.

Opening the carriage on the side, Flamel's researchers were all tied together. Although they looked horrified, they seemed to be fine.

"Sorry for frightening everyone."

Nolen untied their shackles and said, "You are in Linfeng City, and we will ensure your personal safety."
