Chapter 445: Prisoners
"Damn it!" Duke Dracula quickly retreated with a burn mark on his arm that was raised to block the attack. Although Illidan was not holding a familiar war blade, he could play the flame whip very well with the consciousness of a demon hunter.
Although the dozen or so lava monsters summoned looked precarious, they finally lived up to Illidan's expectations and barely entangled the hellfire. Facing Illidan alone, Duke Dracula seemed a little restrained.
Illidan's body made of magma made it impossible for Duke Dracula to fight in close combat, so he used his talent of absorbing blood; the hypnotic skill that was always effective was inexplicably ineffective on Illidan, and Duke Dracula really had no idea where to start with Illidan.
Although the stinking bee swarm had good lethality and could hit Illidan because of its wide coverage, this energy wave attack could be neutralized by the lava arrows that Illidan continuously fired.
The most important thing is that Duke Dracula's trump card, Hellfire, did not bring him the effect he imagined.
The strength of the dozen lava monsters is far inferior to that of Hellfire, but because of the number, they are more annoying than Hellfire. Some of them directly surrounded Hellfire, twisted their softened lava bodies to tightly wrap around Hellfire's legs; others pulled away and spit hot saliva at Hellfire fiercely - that is, lava.
Although these methods could not cause any damage to Hellfire, whose body was made entirely of strange rocks that could not be burned by the sacrificial flame, this method of hugging thighs and the impact of the lava monster's "saliva" made it difficult for Hellfire to move easily, let alone attack Illidan.
Duke Dracula did not fail to order Hellfire to use heavy hands to get rid of those lava monsters as soon as possible, but it had little effect. In addition to the burning sacrificial flame on his body, Hellfire's attack ability is only direct physical attack.
However, as lava monsters split from the fire demon, the sacrificial flames did some damage to them, but it was not serious. And physical attacks could not bring any threat to these lava monsters whose bodies were all liquid.
Of course, because of the difference in rank, if Hellfire used all its strength to hit a lava monster, it would not be difficult to kill it. However, more than a dozen lava monsters hugged their legs, pulled their arms, and the lava monsters with long-range attacks came forward from time to time to replace the part that entangled Hellfire. In this way, Hellfire could not concentrate on attacking a lava monster.
Although the last battle between the dozen lava monsters and Hellfire would definitely be won by Hellfire, it would also take some time. During this period of time, if Duke Dracula could not burst out other powerful means, then Illidan could deal with this guy.
The flame whip in his hand kept dancing, and Duke Dracula could only jump up and down like a monkey in front of Illidan, no longer the noble demeanor before.
Compared to the fact that Duke Dracula's attack methods could not bring any threat to Illidan, Illidan's attack could cause him considerable damage. As long as he was whipped by the flame whip, Duke Dracula would have a long burn mark on his body.
Fortunately, Duke Dracula had just sucked the blood of a legendary sickle demon, and now the blood stored in his body was sufficient to allow him to recover quickly. Otherwise, Duke Dracula, who had to constantly cast the stinking bee swarm to offset the lava arrow while dodging Illidan's flame whip, would have been defeated long ago.
Raising his hand again, Duke Dracula directly released a skill on Illidan. A ball of green smoke suddenly appeared on Illidan's body, and a negative status appeared on his attribute panel.
Parasitism: The unit is parasitized and gains the plague state, losing five health points per second for three minutes. If the unit dies during the duration of the parasitic effect, it will be transformed into a zombie that is slightly weaker than before. The zombie has a duration limit.
It seems that Duke Dracula has run out of tricks. Although the effect of the parasitic skill is good, the actual lethality is not strong, especially for elemental demons such as the Balrog, the damage of the plague state is reduced to three points per second, which is insignificant.
In this case, let's take down this bat! Illidan's eyes condensed, and finally made a ruthless move. Before, he was still guarding against the possible trump card of Duke Dracula, but now it seems that he overestimated this guy. Duke Dracula has no powerful means except Hellfire.
In fact, it can't be blamed on Duke Dracula for being too weak. It's really that he can't use all the means restricted by Illidan's Balrog body.
When facing flesh and blood demons, Duke Dracula likes to exchange injuries for injuries the most, because he has a blood-sucking aura that can quickly restore vitality; hypnosis is a powerful skill that is hard to defend against. But these reliances are completely useless against Illidan's energy body of the Balrog.
With two flaming claws pressed on the ground, Illidan did not continue to send out lava arrows or swing the flaming whip, but stared at Duke Dracula. Duke Dracula did not relax during this rare time when no attack came, but became more alert.
But after a few seconds, Illidan still kept his claws pressed on the ground, motionless and without any intention of launching an attack. What was going on? Duke Dracula felt a little uneasy, but he didn't understand where the uneasiness came from.
Suddenly, Duke Dracula, who was standing in the same place and confronting Illidan, felt that the ground under his feet began to shake slightly. Not good! Duke Dracula's heart was alarmed, the attack of the fire demon came from underground!
However, Illidan's attack this time was somewhat similar to the Hellfire Descent, and it was almost too late when you found it. Just when Duke Dracula transformed into a blood-colored bat and was ready to fly away quickly, the ground where he was suddenly cracked.
"Puff--" A sound like a flat tire sounded, and a large amount of fiery red magma spurted out from the cracks in the ground, directly wrapping Duke Dracula in it.
This is an ability called lava impact that the fire demon transformed by Illidan has, which can communicate with the underground magma to cover the enemy, and it is quite lethal. It is said that at a higher level, some powerful fire demons can even use this ability to raise a volcano on the ground to attack the enemy. But at that time, this ability was not called lava impact, but volcanic descend.
A heart-wrenching scream came from the lava column, and a charred figure rushed out of the lava eruption range like lightning, falling to the ground with the smell of cooked meat.
Duke Dracula should never have turned into a bat to try to escape the range of the lava impact in advance. In bat form, his defense is greatly reduced; when facing the underground lava, the damage he suffers is much greater than that in demon form.
If it weren't for the blood of the sickle demon in his stomach, Duke Dracula might not even have the chance to fight against the lava to regenerate his flesh, and would be directly reduced to ashes.
However, although Duke Dracula temporarily escaped with the blood in his stomach, he lost his fighting power. Looking at his charred body and unconscious appearance, I'm afraid that a gold-level demon or monster can easily kill him at this time.
Illidan naturally would not choose to kill Duke Dracula, this experience is meaningless to him. The reason why he chased out of the small town and spent so much effort to catch this guy was not to get some information from him. If he just killed it like this, it would be a waste of effort.
After Duke Dracula lost his fighting power, the hellfire was much easier to deal with. Illidan had a free hand, and it didn't take much effort to deal with a hellfire. Moreover, after Duke Dracula, the summoner, lost consciousness, the hellfire became only fighting on instinct.
Under the entanglement of the lava monster, Illidan solved it before the hellfire's summoning time limit came, turning it into a pile of black gravel. At this time, Duke Dracula, who had become a captive, still couldn't wake up.
