Without saying a word, Marius pounced on her.
The Terrorclaw monster was significantly larger than Marius, and its attack range was far greater. Before the legendary warrior Casta could even get close, the massive claw swept out. However, Marius, whose body was encased in heavy armor, moved with the lightness of a falling leaf, easily dodging the claw.
At the same time, the Casta Legend Warrior's right-hand dagger transformed into a beam of light, deftly slipping out from behind his small round shield in his left hand and then retracting.
The blade of the Birth Blade struck the vulture's beak, sparks flying.
The Devilclaw's dodge reaction was a little slow.
Blood suddenly spurted from the vulture's head, revealing a deep wound that exposed bone.
Marius narrowed his lizard-like vertical pupils.
His strike had almost cleaved the bird-headed, beetle-bodied monster's head in two. But at the last second, it swung its neck, blocking the blade with its beak.
At the same time, the Deinonychus's huge claws swept across!
If it were an open deck or similar place, Marius could easily dodge, but here it was a narrow tunnel.
He could only raise his arm to meet the attack with his shield, while trying his best to extend the shield forward to block the opponent's line of sight and ensure that the opponent could not concentrate their force on the shield.
The moment the grappling hook collided with the shield, the Casta lizardman's eyes widened suddenly.
The shield shattered instantly, and the flying shards grazed Marius's cheek.
The legendary warrior's body flew uncontrollably, crashing heavily against the tunnel wall. He discovered that his left arm, which held the shield, had lost all feeling.
—Just how strong is this monster? Did I get rammed by a three-masted sailing ship?
Just as Marius was about to get up, he suddenly caught a glimpse of five eager-to-fight companions rushing past him, leaving him behind.
He cursed.
Before he could even finish swearing, he saw his companions flying backwards, at least twice as fast as when they rushed forward!
Raphael, the Terrorclaw Monster, taking advantage of his size and strength, swung his twin claws in a sweeping attack, sending the approaching Casta lizardman flying like a ball. The swirling wind in the tunnel seemed to transform into a strange howl.
Marius laughed heartily.
He casually stuck the Birth Blade into the ground, took the longbow from his back, and immediately fired a volley of arrows at the Devilclaw Monster.
Raphael, the dinosaur, held his claws in front of him; his beetle-like shell was as hard as heavy armor. Arrows clattered against his body, sending sparks flying, before bouncing off to who-knows-where.
However, an arrow somehow slipped through the gap between the two hooks and pierced straight into the Devilclaw's eye!
Raphael the Devilclaw casually pulled out the arrow, along with the eyeball.
It charged headlong toward Maris, and its talons swept out fiercely once more!
As soon as the Devil Claw monster advanced, Marius retreated.
As the legendary warrior Casta retreated, he pulled out a three-section staff-like weapon from his back. When he unfurled the weapon, it turned out to be a long spear!
Raphael was unable to advance any further.
In the blink of an eye, Marius fired four shots.
The first shot hit Raphael's chest squarely, and although blocked by its shell, it successfully stopped its charge.
The second and third shots struck the Deinonychus's left leg in quick succession. The two shots landed at the exact same point. Even with the Deinonychus's hard carapace, such an attack was too much for it, and a small, bloody hole immediately appeared at its left knee.
Although the wound was small, it went through the knee.
The Devilclaw silently knelt on one knee.
Despite his overwhelming advantage in strength and size, his chances of winning against a legendary warrior whose combat skills had reached perfection were virtually zero.
The final shot, like a venomous snake emerging from its hole, pierced straight through the Deinonychus's hollow eye socket and out of the back of its head!
Marius withdrew his blood-stained spear and sighed regretfully.
—In the end, he didn't die.
He thought sadly.
He stared at the motionless Raphael, then walked up to the silent Terrorclaw monster. After confirming that the monster was no longer breathing, he bent down and reached for the Birth Blade stuck in the ground.
Every Casta lizardman's birth knife, unless broken in battle, must be worn for life, until death.
He had barely touched the hilt of the knife when he instinctively sensed something was wrong.
An incredibly strong sixth sense was warning him, telling him to run away immediately!
Almost simultaneously, Raphael, the Terrorclaw Monster, suddenly raised his blood-stained vulture head, his face contorted in a ferocious grimace, and swung his claws at Marius with all his might!
The Deinonychus has a pitifully small brain.
Marius never dreamed that the shot he fired, which pierced the monster's skull through its eye socket, hadn't even touched its brain!
Marius immediately retreated with lightning speed.
He was confident that he would be able to escape the monster's attack range long before its two large claws closed in.
Just then, he heard a soft "coo-coo".
At the same time, I felt something gently and softly holding me back from my steps.
In that instant, Marius had a sudden realization about the future he was about to face.
He looked up with ecstatic joy.
The Raphael, the Terrorclaw Monster, rapidly magnified in his eyes, filling his entire field of vision in the blink of an eye.
“Fate…” Marius murmured.
The incredibly powerful claws pierced his armor with no more ease than piercing a piece of paper.
The sounds of bones breaking echoed like firecrackers.
The legendary warrior Casta's body was twisted and deformed under the grasp of the Terrorclaw monster, and was no longer human-shaped.
Chapter 110 Farming and Family
When she saw the battered and bruised Raphael and the others again, the six-armed serpent demon Ivy-Beate sighed in surprise.
Without hesitation, she used the "Regeneration" scroll to heal the Devilclaw's lost eyeballs and head injuries.
A short while later, the Devilclaw Monster, now full of energy again, rolled over and got up.
【Owner】
"Well done," Ivy Beatrice encouraged it.
Night had fallen, and flames raged everywhere, turning faces a deep red.
So even though the six-armed serpent demon's face was flushed red, almost as if blood was about to drip from it, no one around him noticed.
— He never kept his promise.
When dealing with the red dragon resurrected using Glendale's body, the Devilclaw monster, who had performed a great service, was seriously injured, and Ivy-Beate vowed to reward it.
The words were still ringing in her ears, but because she was so engrossed in her surgical experiments, she completely forgot about it…
—Ah, yes, I am the devil, betrayal is only natural, and I shouldn't waste my emotions on a mere matter of integrity…
She told herself this, but she still couldn't help blaming herself.
Ivy Beatrice took a deep breath and decided to attribute her psychological barrier to breaking her promise to the fact that she hadn't been reincarnated as a demon for long enough.
Ivy Beate surveyed the town, which had been submerged once by the "Blade Barrier" sea and then ravaged into a scorched wasteland by the lizardman Chasan; it was no longer habitable.
The "Detective Mortal" told her that there were still a few dozen people scattered on the mountain who had fled.
However, having completed her new magical feats and tactical drills, and having eliminated nearly a thousand lives, she no longer had much of a desire to kill.
In fact, if it weren't for the fact that this town was full of heinous pirates, she might not have been able to bring herself to do it.
So she unleashed her ultimate move.
[Mass-produced soldier test subject number one. Eliminate all those fleeing from the mountains.]
She telepathically sensed the lizard man, Chasan.
[By the way, approaching the stone tower is strictly prohibited. If any escapees come within two hundred feet of the stone tower, let them go.]
【Yes】
The six-armed serpent demon watched the lizardman Chasan depart with his superb dark vision. The lizardman, soaring high in the night sky, was like a black shadow, seemingly invisible against the dark, steel firmament. A moment later, streaks of fire lit up the mountain, followed by the visible sparks and the deafening roar of explosions.
This made Ivy Beatrice suddenly miss her past life.
—The “mass-produced warrior test subject No. 1” that we developed ourselves may be called the “stealth bomber” after it is mass-produced.
She turned her gaze to the mysterious, dilapidated stone tower.
The magic of that magic tower was still operating at a leisurely pace in her eyes.
—Perhaps once everything is settled, I should pay a visit to the "Black Sail Governor," the master of the magic tower.
The group returned to the dock from Black Sail Town along the same route they had come from.
The traces of battle are everywhere here as well. Dozens of pirate ships of varying sizes are burning on the water, all reduced to ashes. The Black Sails pirates are now a thing of the past.
Green Bubble was directing the sailors to clean up the battlefield and had also set up several huge tents at the dock, waiting for the Six-Armed Serpent Demon and his men to return.
The pirates were a disorganized bunch, each with their own ideas.
Not everyone was willing to attack Blue Bubble and her group to take hostages. Many others thought they could take advantage of the chaos and launched a pre-arranged attack on the three-masted sailing ship when fighting broke out in the town.
Thanks to the skillful organization of Qingpaopao, the enemy was repelled. The battle on the Lookout was still quite fierce, resulting in the loss of more than forty blind sailors.
When the lizardman Chasan arrived to provide support, the battle turned into a one-sided massacre.
The six-armed serpent demon ordered everyone to return to their tents to rest, except for Raphael the dinosaur, who followed her into the large tent.
You've done me a great favor again, Raphael.
The Devilclaw stood before her, somewhat bewildered.
She asked, "What do you want?"
But the Devilclaw monster knew nothing about it.
Now even Ivy Beatrice was scratching her head.
—Should we give the Devil Claw monster three or five major surgeries and turn it into a war machine? Because she needs such a bodyguard to protect her home.
Just then, she heard the Devilclaw monster's reply: [Still there, Master, beside me]
【...】
Ivy Beatrice paused for a few seconds.
She suddenly remembered that among the creatures that were now following her, only Raphael the Devilclaw and the two owl bear cubs had been with her since her reincarnation.
She had just been reincarnated then, and her mental state was in turmoil. She was like a person who went through intermittent bouts of madness, sometimes gloomy, sometimes furious, sometimes panicked. She viewed all living things with extremely awkward and strange attitudes. I remember she treated the Devilclaw Monster like a caged monster, and once, like feeding a dog, she threw the corpse on the ground and contemptuously let it eat it like a dog.
Over time, she has calmed down.
Especially when you're on the vast ocean, you no longer need to pretend. You feel calm and your personality even becomes more cheerful.
Ivy Beatrice knew she could never go back; she had become a demon, and her way of thinking and doing things had changed involuntarily, but she had become more open-minded about everything.
It's actually quite good to think things through on a whim.
She even felt a little ashamed towards Raphael. Even though he was a monster and ugly, he still had his own thoughts. And he was always loyal and never opposed her.
She asked casually, "Raphael, I've never asked you about your family."
The Devilclaw monster didn't understand.
What is family?
"It's just..." Ivy Beatrice suddenly found herself having a hard time explaining, "The people you live with, um, your parents, your...family."
The clear faces of her parents from her past life floated into her mind, and she unconsciously uttered, "You...you would live together, eat together. Every day you would...you would hope they were doing well; if they were happy, you would be happy; if they were sad or uncomfortable, you would be sad or uncomfortable too..."
So the Deinonychus shook the vulture's head, indicating that it understood.
[Master is family]
The six-armed serpent demon trembled slightly.
“Really?” she said blankly.
[The original owner] Raphael the Devilclaw said, "He locked me in a cage, electrocuted me, starved me. My owner was kind; he gave me a name. My owner was happy, Raphael was happy."
The idea of using a knife disappeared.
