The violent explosion resounded in all directions from the moment the final hall of the temple shattered on the high tower, but Artoris and the other two were not destroyed here together with them.
At the moment when the falling temple was about to collide with the tower, Baron let go of the hand clinging to the dragon's eye, and escaped from the temple with Atoris.
Feeling the air waves caused by the explosion sweeping above her as she fell, Artolis grabbed the hilt of the spirit sword that was recalled to her side without hesitation, and immediately thrust the sword blade into the outer wall of the tower. .
However, even though the sword was fixed to the wall, it was still difficult to stop the two men from falling at high speed.
The sharp edge of the sword is not a pickaxe, and it cannot bear the weight of two people!
When she raised her head, Artolis realized that a sharp weapon like the Spirit Sword could not have a buffering effect at all after she saw the Spirit Sword tearing apart the outer wall in an instant, leaving an ever-extending scar.
And if it still hits the ground at this speed, even a fifth-level cultivator will not be able to escape severe damage.
But thankfully, at this time, Barong did not choose to sit still and wait for death. Manipulating the ice to condense a three-foot nail pick, he found the right moment and suddenly dug in. The moment the sharp ice pick hooked the bulge on the outer wall, the two people's falling positions were suddenly reversed. After forcibly transferring the force that Artoris endured to himself who was holding her left hand tightly, the double buffering successfully relieved the force of the fall, allowing the two of them to hang firmly in mid-air.
"Huh~ It's so dangerous!" Looking at her left hand held tightly by Baron and the opponent's other arm holding the ice ax firmly above her, Atoris realized that they were out of danger. He breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's too early to say we're out of danger."
As soon as Balong finished speaking, a huge tentacle struck from above with lightning speed, and was about to smash the two people hanging here into pieces.
However, seeing this, Barong did not show the slightest panic. He loosened his grip on the ice ax and entered a state of free fall again. In this way, the two of them perfectly avoided the monster's pursuit.
Compared with falling from a height of thousands of feet, the height from the middle to the bottom of the tower is not dangerous at all.
Seeing that the water below was condensed by the ice controlled by Baron, Artolis immediately broke away from the opponent's hand, then stepped into the void, and after a thunder flash, she stood firmly on the ice.
Looking up the tower, under the old skylight of the Balinoa ruins, Artolis was able to see the full picture of the tentacle monster.
It looks like a horo creature that is common in the sea, but in fact it is not like that. The monster that you look at is a hundred feet tall, with a dark green body and hundreds of thick tentacles. It clearly has a huge eye like a squid. Hitomi's head is exactly the same as an octopus's, so there's nothing wrong with saying it's weird.
What's more concerning is that the monster's form seems to have changed significantly compared to before. A thick slime-like liquid is secreted from the corners of the monster's eyes and quickly wraps around the whole body. The disgusting feeling caused by the unknown mucus that soaked all the wrists and suction cups made Artolis's hair stand on end just by looking at it.
"Level 162 Baishen Ho Luo Mo, no wonder the previous offensive did not have much effect." Artoris, who was surprised by the monster's appearance, landed immediately after her, and Barong also saw the monster's true form. After muttering and nodding thoughtfully, he turned his attention to Artoris.
"Can you do magic of the same magnitude just now?"
"No, it's just a one-off. In the final analysis, the origin of that magic has nothing to do with me. Even if I have the same amount of magic power, it is impossible to recreate that level of magic again."
"That's it, then there's nothing we can do." Looking at the stones falling from the tower, Barong said and stuck his spear on the ice.
"It seems that the magic wedge has been swallowed into the body by that guy. Although I have a way to take out the magic wedge without killing the opponent, I am afraid that if I really try to implement it, I will break the promise I made earlier."
"It must be Kloster." After hearing this, Artolis nodded: "I can understand that the monster has a violent temper. If he avoids it and refuses to fight, it will destroy this ruins. Even if you really have Barong, I wouldn’t agree to that method in my heart.”
Artoris would not accept being reduced to a deserter after getting what she wanted. She is not a cowering thief lurking in the shadows, but a knight who looks up to the sky and bathes in the moonlight without shame. What reason does she have to cower like that!
"In that case..." After hearing this, Barong smiled happily.
"Then let's fight!"
The moment the girl's scream fell, endless tentacles descended from the sky, and a dragnet spread out like a cage for trapped animals, trapping the two of them.
But the next second, a shrill sword light burst out from the inside out. The tentacles used to block the two people's retreat were unable to withstand the domineering power of the Shenghui Sword Intention. However, the moment they came into contact with it, they were struck by that The unparalleled sword light tore apart.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the two of them quickly broke out of the tentacles. The regeneration ability of the tentacles coated with the unknown mucus has been significantly improved, and the severed tentacles can grow and recover in the blink of an eye.
It is not known whether this horrifyingly large horo creature can feel pain. If it is a counterattack based on instinctive reaction, it would be too exaggerated in Artolis's opinion.
It was like venting their anger on the two of them, and they continued to regenerate and cooperate with more tentacles joining the battlefield to launch an almost endless offensive, making Artolis feel physically and mentally exhausted.
In a place where "Moon Step", "Dance of the Sky" and "Wings of the Golden Crow" are not allowed to be used, if she just relies on the extremely consuming magic power "Thousands of Ting Marks" to avoid attacks, I am afraid that after a few rounds, she will be able to deal with it. Liz was at the end of her tether.
Fortunately, she was not the only one fighting the monster. In Atoris's field of vision, Baron's figure that was as strong as Thunder blocked most of the attacks for her.
The spear made of ice has long since melted in Barong's hands, and has re-condensed into a weapon more suitable for current combat. , compared to Atoris who can only escape blindly, he has mastered eighteen kinds of martial arts, and possesses the [Blessing of Weapons' Hundred Solutions], he is like a weapons master, able to flexibly switch weapons on the battlefield. While resisting the attack of powerful enemies, you can still have enough power to launch a counterattack.
However, Artolis did not feel ashamed because she was not as good as Baron. Although the gap between them was obvious, it did not mean that she was useless.
They all understand that Artoris, who possesses super powerful magic power and an absolute point-piercing attack that can kill in one blow, is actually the key to winning this battle.
So there is no need to blame herself. What Atoris should really do now is seize the short opportunity that exists in the time gap that Baron tried hard to fight for her.
