Chapter 549: Cloudhorn Rhinoceros
Lin Yun calmly took over the task of holding back the monster. After this small disturbance, the team that had been stagnant for a while moved forward again...
It seems that because the team is closer to the center of the primeval forest, the frequency of ancient monsters appearing is getting higher and higher. In the past, one or two wandering monsters would only be encountered in a day or two, but now, they often encounter several times a day.
Especially in the past few days, the ancient monsters encountered by the team are no longer frequent enough to be described, and can almost be called dense...
Not long after the team left, there was another deafening roar in the depths of the densely-covered forest.
Hearing such a roar often means that the ancient monsters entrenched in the forest have discovered this group of unexpected guests who have intruded into their habitat, and what follows is an inevitable encounter.
And this is already the fourth group of monsters I encountered today...
At the beginning, Falton and others also thought about whether they could use the roar of the monsters to bypass the location of the ancient monsters and continue to advance. For a titled mage, it is not an easy task.
Especially after hard battles, they often have to face the embarrassing situation of no benefit, which is completely unattractive to mages who pay attention to efficiency.
The proposal to take a detour to avoid the battle was unanimously approved by the three parties...
It's just that this seemingly beautiful proposal was only implemented once.
These ancient monsters entrenched in the depths of the forest are obsessed with the uninvited guests who broke into their habitats, beyond the imagination of the mages.
When the mages accidentally broke into the territory of an ancient magic-eyed octopus in order to avoid a group of ancient crypt thorns, they were almost surrounded by the following crypt thorns and the magic-eyed 8-handed monster After that, the only proposal that was approved by the three parties declared bankruptcy...
Therefore, when the mages heard the roar of the monsters that were close at hand, they all quickly got ready to fight...
Sure enough, almost at the same time that the roar stopped. There was a strong shaking from the ground where everyone was, and it was not difficult to imagine that not far ahead, a group of astonishingly huge ancient monsters were rushing towards where everyone was.
It didn't make the mages wait long...
Soon, with a strong vibration like a mountain shaking, behind a huge tree in front.
A monster rushed through the tree, revealing a huge and ferocious body, and following behind it, there was a group of equally huge figures...
Damn it, it's the ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros...
Seeing this group of behemoths running wildly, even Lin Yun couldn't help but cursed in his heart.
Ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros. But it is really not something easy to deal with. In the books collected in the decaying library tens of thousands of years later, Lin Yun has seen records about it more than once. Among them is an incident related to the ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros , especially impressed Lin Yun...
That was an event that happened in the early days of the Third Dynasty that caused great shock...
In that era, there used to be two mage forces that had a very tense relationship with each other, in terms of strength. Perhaps even the Black Tower and the Cloud Tower are slightly inferior. In order to compete for resources, these two mage forces have accumulated a deep hatred over the years.
Finally, one day, during the process of exploring a certain relic of the ancient gods and demons, the teams of the two sides met unexpectedly. Naturally, in order to compete for this relic. An unprecedented battle broke out between the two mage forces.
Hundreds of mid-level titled wizards fought extremely fiercely around the remains of the ancient gods and demons. There is no doubt that this is a peak duel that is destined to be recorded in history.
Still, there's a reason this battle went down in history. There are some small discrepancies with people's original ideas...
The strength of the two mage forces is very close, even the two teams sent to explore the ancient ruins are on par, this battle between mages. From the very beginning, it was in a stalemate.
The situation was even at a stalemate. Even though both sides used the joint force of a group of mages to use the forbidden spells of the level of more titled mages, they still couldn't inflict heavy damage on the other side.
The strengths of the two sides are so close that no matter what method they use, the other side can always use the same level of spells to fight against. Body, neither side can gain the upper hand...
If the situation continues like this, the final result will be nothing more than the exhausted two sides, after losing some personnel to each other, reluctantly give up and make peace, and each retreats to rest.
However, to everyone's surprise, at this time, a group of ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros with an astonishing number suddenly broke into the battle between the two mage forces.
Perhaps it was the powerful forbidden spell cast by the mages that alarmed the huge group of ancient monsters, or maybe these monsters happened to pass by and were accidentally attracted by the movement of the mages casting spells...
But these are not important anymore...
For these titled mages who have almost exhausted their mana, what they will face next will be an unprecedented painful experience...
Just a charge.
This group of astonishing ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros trampled over the mages in an irresistible posture, causing nearly one-third of the casualties on the spot.
This is simply unimaginable...
You know, in the previous battle, even if both sides used the forbidden spell, they did not cause such a large number of casualties. However, under the impact of the ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros, they lost one-third of their hands in just one encounter. , this is a total of more than forty titled wizards...
What does more than forty titled wizards mean?
If they join hands to cast spells, they can easily destroy a city. It is conceivable that this should be a terrifyingly powerful force. The horned rhinoceros easily trampled to death...
In the middle of this, of course, there are factors that the mages are exhausted from fighting for a long time, and there is little magic power left, and mages with similar strengths are fighting among the mages. It was indeed a headache for all mages, and the sudden intrusion of the ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros also caught the mages who had been fighting for a long time by surprise.
However, the terrifying strength of the ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros itself should not be underestimated.
After all, even a titled magician who has almost exhausted his magic power is not a weak person who is at the mercy of being slaughtered. The case of more than forty titled wizards being trampled to death in one fell swoop is only one case in the records of the entire Northrend world.
The ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros, this kind of monster with rough skin and flesh, was able to win in the world of Northrend by virtue of this battle. Left a strong stroke of ink and color...
Afterwards, people also seriously studied this kind of monster. In fact, the strength of the ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros is not outstanding among monsters of the same level, although its skin is unusually tough, and it has the ability to directly offset part of the magic damage. traits, but a single ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros cannot be called powerful.
A titled mage under normal circumstances, even a head-on confrontation. It can also be easily wiped off.
However, when the ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros appeared in groups, the situation began to be a little different.
In the book that Lin Yun had read, the only reminder for latecomers was that if you were facing the charge of a group of angry ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros, it might be a good choice to turn around and run away...
But now, it appeared in front of Lin Yun and others. It's just a group of ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros rushing over in anger.
The only good news is that the number of this group of rhinos is much smaller than the one recorded in the books...
"Merlin Sorcerer, now, it's time for your people to perform their duties." As a ghostly figure appeared to the side, Su Weier's sinister voice rang in Lin Yun's ear.
"As you wish..." Lin Yun glanced at Su Weier. So he ignored him, and his gaze swept across the Frost Dragon and the Heavenly Puppet behind him in turn, and finally fell on the dragon blood orc Shudu who was trying to shrink his body as small as possible to avoid Lin Yun's gaze.
"My lord. These are a group of ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros..." With a mournful face, Xiu Duan glanced at the herd of rhinoceros rushing forward in front of him, and his face turned pale.
"So?" Lin Yun frowned slightly, and looked at the dragon blood orc calmly.
"Okay, my lord, off duty will go right away." The off duty, who knew his master very well, was taken aback, and immediately agreed, damn it, the calmer your lord's surface is, the more shocking it is that there is a storm underneath. The lord's anger, Hugh would rather face a group of berserk ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros.
It has to be said that this tired highland orc's level of judging the situation far exceeds his combat effectiveness. When he was off duty, he mentioned slaughter, and his body was full of fighting spirit in an instant, roaring and rushing towards the ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros.
In the air, there was a curse like "Damn rhinoceros beast, you dare to let the off-duty uncle do it himself, let's see how the off-duty uncle smashes your brainless beast heads"...
"Your Excellency Su Weier, my people have already gone out to hold back the monster. Next, it's time for you to contribute." Lin Yun said lightly.
"Naturally." Su Weier smiled sinisterly, turned around and returned to the team of the Black Tower.
In the time of a few words of conversation, the ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros rushing madly had already rushed to a distance of nearly 100 meters, and the dragon blood orcs off duty also went up to meet them with slaughter in their hands.
Compared with the huge body of the ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros, the off-duty body is simply pitifully small.
Just when the two sides were about to collide, Xiuban lifted the massacre weighing a thousand catties, and hit the ground heavily before the ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros hit him.
"Boom..."
With a loud bang, the violent impact caused by the hammer hitting the ground caused the ground near Shudu to shake suddenly, and even the seemingly unstoppable charge of the rhinoceros couldn't help but stagnate for a while.
It was just such a moment, and then, the ancient cloud-horned rhinoceros, which found itself being provoked by a little orc, was suddenly furious, and immediately stared at Shudu, and rushed towards him.
