Chapter 223: Iron is not made of steel
The purple-haired girl attacked like a wave, slashing at the hard skin of the devil's millstone pumpkin, only causing debris to fly everywhere.
However, her own blood volume also dropped quickly. In addition to using the bite four-hit combo, Demon Pumpkin also released a curse on the Cerberus, which instantly reduced the purple-haired girl's defense by 10 points. .
Fortunately, the bird of paradise's immunity skill came quickly, helping the Cerberus to remove the curse effect, and then began to cast recovery spells to restore the purple-haired girl's blood.
Ma Lu on the side is not idle either. When he sees Cerberus encountering danger and his blood volume drops too fast, he will step forward to help her share some of the attacks.
But he had to back off after blocking a few times.
The armor provided by the church is very effective when facing low-star activated plants and will hardly break the defense. However, it is a bit unsatisfactory against 4-star or above activated plants.
Ma Lu only suffered 5 attacks before an alarm sounded in his ears, and the durability of his armor was almost gone, so he could only retreat to the auditorium.
As a result, the pressure on Cerberus could not help but increase, and the bloodline began to play a roller coaster. It was not until Ouroboros summoned the water element to share the damage with her that the situation stabilized again.
However, those water elements are not very easy to fight in front of the Demon Mopan Pumpkin. Under the condition of being restrained by attributes, the Demon Mopan Pumpkin basically can't resist it for two times and then disappears. Ouroboros has to keep on Replenish.
That is to say, her maximum sin value is twice that of an ordinary mage. Coupled with the bonus of the formation, she can withstand such consumption.
As time passes, Demonic Mill Pumpkin's HP has been reduced by more than half, and the passive Cerberus has become more brutal and bloodthirsty.
Less than half a minute later, the Demon Mopan Pumpkin's HP was reduced to its last 900 points, but at this moment it suddenly changed its attack method and stopped biting the purple-haired girl.
He then used the pumpkin head to hit the Cerberus directly, causing the latter to stumble.
The Demon Mopan Pumpkin then gave up on the purple-haired girl in front of him and rushed straight towards the Bird of Paradise behind him.
When the Bird of Paradise saw the demon Mopan Pumpkin rushing towards him with all its strength, there was a rare hint of nervousness in its usually emotionless eyes.
The collision between the Demon Mill Pumpkin and the Cerberus just now directly knocked away 52 HP points of the latter. This was still under the condition that the attributes were restrained. If it were replaced by someone else, such a collision would probably result in losses. Hundreds of blood points.
However, the demonic millstone pumpkin only took two steps towards her, and its speed slowed down visibly to the naked eye, becoming less than half of its original speed.
——Slowness Trap. This newly acquired prop by Ma Lu came into play at this time.
Facing the sudden drop in speed of the Demonic Pumpkin, even a magician like Bird of Paradise can easily dodge it.
Then the Cerberus, which had been knocked away before, also rushed over, activated its active skills again, and started a new round of output against the Demon Mill Pumpkin, quickly knocking off 500 HP points of it.
The Demonic Mill Pumpkin only has more than 300 health points left at this time.
The witches focused their fire together, and finally emptied the remaining health bar of the slow trap before its effect ended.
Win! ! !
Looking at the demon mill pumpkin lying in front of his feet, Skylark still couldn't believe his eyes.
Such a powerful activated plant was killed by their joint efforts.
Ma Lu looked at the huge reward of 1,200,000 holy silver coins and 13,000 atonement points estimated by the mission system, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
The battle just now was a bit thrilling. If any part of the process failed to cooperate well, I'm afraid the team will suffer attrition.
In fact, halfway through the battle, Malu regretted starting this challenge rashly.
Even if you have mastered the attributes and attack methods of this demonic millstone pumpkin before the battle, when you actually face it in actual combat, the sense of oppression as a 5-star ingredient is still very strong.
If he hadn't had hunting experience in the previous plane, Ma Lu would probably be in a hurry.
Fortunately, in terms of results, this battle was undoubtedly a great success.
In addition to the estimated mission reward, the demonic millstone pumpkin also allowed him to upgrade two levels in a row, and the knight level went from lv13 to lv15. Malu got another virtual prop and a new formation.
The name of the virtual prop is - backup power battery (7/7).
Its function is to repair the knight's armor and restore the durability of the knight's armor to 100 points.
Ma Lu looked at himself and saw that he only had 6 points of durability armor left on him, and no spare power battery was used.
This thing is different from the previous virtual props. It has a number of uses, one less time.
After the battle just now, the state of Malu and the witches under his command has almost reached its limit.
I have to go back to the city anyway. At this time, of course I should choose the free repair service provided by the free church instead of doing it myself.
After briefly tidying up, Malu returned to his horse and set off back to Temple City.
After landing, he first went to Levi to report.
When Li Wei heard that he had killed a demonic millstone pumpkin, he also had a look of surprise on his face.
This activated plant has a B-level threat level in the battle manual of the Holy Knights. It is a powerful enemy that even experienced veterans are unwilling to face.
As a newcomer to the Knights, Malu was able to defeat an opponent of this level.
Then Li Wei reviewed Ma Lu's previous record. He usually didn't pay much attention to low-level tasks like this, and only had a general impression.
I don’t know the result until I read it, but I was shocked when I read it.
Li Wei then discovered that Malu had unknowingly eliminated so many activated plants.
Although there are no powerful enemies at the level of Demon Mopan Pumpkin, there are also some very powerful beings.
And considering that the newcomers at the same level as Malu are still cautiously struggling to survive outside the city, this achievement is even more amazing.
In addition, Malu had just passed the church's test and proved his loyalty. Li Wei could not help but look at Malu with a hint of appreciation.
What this deputy leader of the Holy Knights likes most is people with real talents and hard work.
However, it is not easy to win his trust. Levi also plans to examine the young man in front of him again.
After thinking about it, he said to Ma Lu, "You did a good job. I have a special task for you next."
"Special task?"
"Yes, it's about hunting fallen witches." Li Wei said, "I just got the whereabouts of a fallen witch. Go and bring her back to me."
Ma Lu's face showed embarrassment when he heard this color.
"What, you don't want to go?" Levi raised his eyebrows.
"No, I am going to meditate mainly in the next two weeks." Ma Lu said, "I am afraid that it will delay your business, deputy leader."
"Why are you meditating again?"< br>
"I swore, I have completed the number of tasks I promised you this month."
Li Wei looked at Ma Lu, as if he hated iron, but in the end he could only say, "Okay. Well, I'll find someone else, please step back."
"Okay."
