Chapter 923 Savage Growth
This kind of dark green vine is called the twining vine, and it can be seen everywhere in the wood elf forest.
The characteristic is that during the growth process, the winding vine will continue to wrap around objects and even living things.
It’s just that under normal circumstances, their growth rate is not that exaggerated, so there is no situation where creatures cannot break free from being entangled by them. They are basically entangled in static objects such as big trees and rocks. on objects.
However, under the catalysis of the mantra spell "Savage Growth", the wildly expanding vines have undoubtedly fully demonstrated their threat to living creatures at this moment!
And while wrapping around the target, it continues to tighten. The force generated during the process is even enough to strangle some fragile targets to death on the spot!
In the dark rat tide, the wildly spreading entangled vines not only directly restrained the rat troll's actions, but also opened up a world in the rat tide.
However, compared with the exaggerated number of rats, it was still not enough.
This is most intuitively felt by the wood elf mages in the air.
Seeing this scene in his eyes, Locke frowned slightly and spoke quickly...
"John, you all use 'Energy Drain', and leave the rest to me!"
After saying that, Locke didn't care about anything else, he just raised the staff in his hand and started chanting.
【Savage growth! 】
In an instant, powerful life energy continued to surge. What was originally just a fast-growing twining vine, at this moment, seemed to transform into a ferocious beast, writhing crazily.
The thickest vine swelled to the thickness of an arm in a short period of time.
In just a few blinks of an eye, an area of almost one kilometer in diameter was covered! And they are still maintaining a certain speed, constantly expanding outwards, as if they want to directly turn this place into their home court!
During this period, the characteristic of the twining vines that likes to wrap around and tighten their targets during the growth process was also fully demonstrated under Locke's "savage growth". There were a large number of rat slave soldiers in the area, and even the rat people's All the regular soldiers were hanged!
Seeing this scene, the wood elf mages, including John, were all stunned.
As for their clan leader's spell cultivation, the wood elves only had a rough idea that it seemed to be very strong, but no one had ever really seen it.
After all, I never had this opportunity before.
It wasn't until this moment that their eyes were completely opened.
“Good guy, is the patriarch so strong?!”
Locke, who almost collapsed with all his strength, felt as if he was injected with blood the moment he heard these words. It was like a shot in the arm, and I felt energetic all of a sudden, even raising my chin a little.
【Are you making trouble with me? Do you know the value of being an extraordinary mage? ! 】
There is a huge difference in strength between extraordinary mages and ordinary mages.
It is no exaggeration to say that even if John and the twenty-nine wood elf mages were all tied together, they would not be able to compete with Locke, an extraordinary mage.
"What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you take action quickly?!"
Hearing the patriarch's call, John did not doubt that he was there and quickly gave the order.
“Cast ‘Energy Drain’!”
With their staffs in hand, the wood elf mages chanted quickly.
During this period, emerald green life energy emerged on the surface of the twining vine.
While the light was shining, the Rat Troll, which was struggling desperately just a moment ago, seemed to have been drained of its strength by something, and its entire state began to become sluggish.
However, the winding vines wrapped around them were the opposite. The winding vines that gained nutrients by absorbing energy began to grow faster and became stronger!
Locke's 'Savage Growth' has already used entangled vines to clear out a large number of enemy forces in the area. Now combined with John's 'Energy Draining', the lethality has undoubtedly become stronger.
The rat troll, which was able to fight against the entangled vines with its strong physical fitness, lost the ability to resist after its body energy was absorbed. At the same time, on the wall of the southern fortress, let alone Thoros, even Bai Tu, who had brought them here, looked stunned.
Baitu, who took over the mission at that time, had tentatively confirmed John's abilities on the training ground.
To put it simply, regardless of the subsequent slow spread, only the short-term outbreak, John and the others worked together to cast a spell, allowing the entangled vines to cover an area of approximately four to five hundred meters in diameter at most.
But Locke doubled the coverage area as soon as he took action.
The wildly growing winding vines are constantly grabbing the ratmen on the battlefield, and the moment they capture the target, the 'energy absorption' used by John and the others will take effect again, allowing the winding vines to directly absorb the target. Energy is converted into its own nutrients, thereby promoting further growth.
Theoretically, this set of combos can be repeated indefinitely.
But unfortunately, theories are just theories after all.
Excluding the extremely powerful rat trolls, those rat slave soldiers don’t have much energy at all. The reason why the entangled vines can continue to expand their area now is because of the mantra power of the wood elf mages. Powering it.
However, the power of mantras in the wood elf mages is also limited.
Locke was unsure at the time and didn’t know what he could do, so he simply used all his strength from the very beginning.
There is no doubt about its effect, but on the other hand, once it is used, it also makes oneself stop eating.
Under this premise, John and the others have limited strength, and naturally they cannot last long.
As soon as they stopped here, the entangled vines that were still spreading on the battlefield instantly lost their growth power.
After taking root on the battlefield, the twining vine will actually continue to grow naturally.
However, compared to the growth efficiency catalyzed by mantra spells, its natural growth rate basically poses no threat to living biological units.
But even so, the value of the wood elf mages has been thoroughly demonstrated.
The offensive of the rat tide was stopped by them at this moment.
In fact, let alone the rat tide, the entire battlefield environment has changed at this moment.
The remaining rat slave soldiers were surrounded by a sea of fire in front of them and countless vines behind them, and they could only survive through cracks.
At the same time, in the rear position of the ratmen, the ratman commander who confirmed the latest news was furious.
Facing this completely unexpected method, the Ratman Commander's entire mentality exploded.
Including yesterday, in less than two days, due to the Blood Explosion Technique, he had almost defeated all his troops in the past two months.
The ratmen had a lot of troops, but they couldn't bear this style of play. The bad situation made the ratman commander uncontrollably want to retreat.
However, as soon as this intention to retreat arose, it was suppressed by an inexplicable will.
At this moment, the Ratman Commander felt as if there was a voice echoing in his mind...
【attack! Keep attacking! Kill all the lizardmen! ! I want to see rivers of blood! ! ! 】
Invisibly, the eyes of the rat-man commander became scarleter, and his expression became ferociously distorted.
"Attack. Attack! Kill all the lizardmen!!!"
