Hiding behind a tree, Layton looked at the shield in his hand with a solemn expression.
He admitted that his shield was not strong enough.
His shield can only protect one person at most.
If anything goes wrong, he can only protect the safety of one person.
He didn't want to make a choice; he wanted to protect everyone.
Therefore, he must use his abilities at the most appropriate time.
On the other hand, Lycorina was also not in a good mood.
Because she couldn't judge whether she could really kill King Slime in one blow.
What should you do if your attack misses, or if the Slime King breaks free from the taunt and dodges the attack?
Or what if your attack fails to break the core of the Slime King, allowing it to survive?
Will we still be able to rely on An Yi then?
All three looked preoccupied, except for An Yi, who remained calm and composed. IV. ∴II[
He also understood how the three of them felt.
Before entering the forest, they were completely ignorant and stood on the pinnacle of self-confidence, thinking they were incredibly awesome after killing a few slimes.
After a day of hard-fought battle, he fell into a valley of confusion and began to lose confidence in his own abilities.
Almost every new adventurer goes through this phase.
Having gone through the first two phases of the Slime King, they knew that without An'i, they would inevitably die at the hands of the Slime King.
If the means by which the opponent uses disguise are so powerful, then what is the strength of their true form?
Having experienced helplessness, one tends to overestimate the enemy.
Although An Yi wanted to say "just take him down," he still "didn't know" the Slime King's strength, let alone give others confidence.
You have to kill the Slime King once to realize that the enemy is not so scary.
"Prepare."
An Yi's voice interrupted the three of them from their thoughts.
The three nodded in unison, their eyes flashing with determination.
Now that things have come to this, there is no time for them to hesitate!
"on!"
As soon as she finished speaking, An Yi dashed ahead at incredible speed, charging towards the Slime King in the center of the open space—
The three people behind them stopped in their tracks.
Time seemed to slow down, and the air seemed to freeze.
In a mere instant, they watched as the land in front of An Yi suddenly opened up.
The land has been opened up!
Like a giant mouth, suddenly splitting in two!
An Yi, who was charging ahead, crashed headfirst into the ground, catching the three of them completely off guard.
Everything happened so suddenly!
Miluko hadn't even had time to accelerate, Layton hadn't even had time to protect, and Lycorina's attack hadn't even begun. _ ? _ ↓
An Yi then disappeared from their sight.
he died?
"You! How dare you!!"
Despicable and shameless!!!
Layton roared, his eyes bloodshot with rage, and charged forward, shield in hand.
Instantly, countless black tentacles rose from the ground, attacking Layton—
[Skill: Shield Slam!]
"boom!!"
The shield unleashed its ultimate power, and the violent impact shattered the overwhelming tentacles in front of it into pieces!
King Slime's toughness is only 10 points, making him as brittle as paper under Layton's high strength of 28 points.
Charging forward with his shield on, Layton was like a sturdy steel chariot, unstoppable! Unstoppable!
It smashed through the attacks of countless tentacles, broke free from the entanglement of countless tentacles, and crashed headlong into the Slime King deep within with the force of a tidal wave!
As if sensing a threat, King Slime immediately jumped backward.
"Don't! Try to! Run!! You shameless monster!!"
ridicule!!"
Om-!
King Slime suddenly paused, froze for a moment, and then immediately enveloped Layton.
The taunt has taken effect!
The next moment, golden light burst forth from the forest dozens of meters behind Layton, piercing through all the branches and trees, the light dazzling.
9. Skill: Beam!
Multiple releases! 100% magic power used!!!
8. [Skill: Beam]
Two-fold release: Ultimate Flash]
Lycorina floated slightly on the ground, her saintly robes and long golden hair moving without wind, her golden eyes radiating light.
Before her, a staff, radiating light, began to spin rapidly, eventually forming a gleaming golden disc.
Three: "Drink it!!!"
Zero Kirina thrust her hands out forcefully, and instantly, a dazzling beam of light, as wide as a person, shot out from the disc and hurtled towards the Slime King!
The air became hazy! The scenery became distorted! This beam of light seemed to twist all visible light, piercing through all obstacles and directly hitting the Slime King!
"boom--!!"
A thunderous roar seemed to echo through the forest, the enormous sound waves crashing against the trees and whipping up gusts of wind. The terrifying power even made the three of them feel that everything was about to end.
however……
But what they saw was that the Slime King changed shape, becoming like a bowl, and caught the beam of light from before!
The gel on King Slime's body trembled violently, creating ripples, but the powerful beam of light could not reach its core—
It held up!
While it can prevent attacks, that's not its primary purpose!
The next moment, the bowl-shaped Slime King suddenly bounced back, deflecting the beam of light that had been hitting him and pointing it directly at the exhausted Lycorina!
"Oh no!" Milu was shocked and was about to rush to the rescue.
[Special ability activated.]
In that instant, a shimmering white figure flashed in front of Lycorina at a speed too fast for the naked eye to follow—
"Absolute Defense!!"
"boom--!!"
The extremely powerful beam of light struck Layton, who had suddenly appeared!
Chapter 48 A Once-in-a-Lifetime Chance!
The Slime King can burrow underground.
Guess what treasure it swallowed and buried underground?
The Slime King is merely a higher-ranking demon among slimes; its main methods of killing, besides physical attacks, are drowning people with its slime.
As for its corrosive ability as a means of feeding, it is not particularly strong at the Slime King stage.
At least it's impossible for the clothes to be corroded by just a touch, thus providing a treat for the audience.
Only higher-level Corrosive Slimes or Venom Slimes possess truly powerful corrosive abilities.
After An Yi was swallowed, his stats might not have been enough to escape the Slime King's clutches.
After all, the Slime King is made of liquid and can absorb the power from all his movements.
However, precisely because it is a liquid, it has a very obvious weakness.
Low temperature.
So the instant An Yi was swallowed, he used an ice elemental skill that he had not yet shown to the other three.
Before it was completely encased, it froze and shattered the slime of the Slime King.
An Yi was just wondering where to get underground when the other party brought him in.
It's actually pretty good.
The opponent's true form is directly below the disguise, so as long as you follow the frozen slime forward, you will soon find its true form.
If it's just a simple trap and doesn't extend to the target's body, then it's easy to handle.
He took his sword and cleaved the earth in the direction of the main body!
As for the three people outside, An Yi did not tell them that she was still alive.
Anyway, it'll probably be shouting things like "bonds," "friendship," and "justice" before charging towards the Slime King.
Let them fight for a while; it'll give them some combat experience. Anyway, once I find the core of the Slime King, it'll all be over.
……
Just now, Annie fell into the enemy's trap, her fate unknown. And now, the Slime King has deflected Lycorina's magic, and Layton stands before her with his shield raised, putting up a fierce resistance—a scene that Miluco will never forget.
