Chapter 62: Shapeshifter

Before this sentence was finished, hundreds of large fireballs suddenly descended from the sky, smashing onto the land where the two were standing.

These fireballs were still tinged with white in the golden red, showing that the temperature had reached a terrifying level, and they were wrapped in black obsidian meteorites with a diameter of more than one zhang. The impact force was great, and the sound was intense, as if they were going to pierce the surface of the earth.

Every collision was concentrated within a radius of ten zhang, and even the soil surface was melted into a glazed state by the high temperature.

And can those two still be alive? He Lingchuan, not far away, tightly blocked his ears, fearing that his eardrums would be shattered.

The more powerful the supernatural power, the longer the preparation time. This black flood dragon could summon meteorites to fall by flicking its tail, which looked easy and simple. Besides the fact that this world was its home field, I'm afraid that chatting with the two people earlier was also to cover up the secret operation of supernatural powers.

More difficult to deal with than the artifact spirit of a divine artifact is that this artifact spirit is as cunning as a human.

The black flood dragon probably knew the situation below like the back of its hand, and with a low groan, one figure after another emerged from the black smoke filling the ground.

The magic apes climbed up again, and because of the replenishment of the heavenly fire, they looked bigger, stronger, and faster. Magma even flowed down from them, and every drop made a "sizzle" sound on the ground.

As soon as they formed, they rushed toward another direction.

That was a pile of ruins, and the large amount of earth and stone dropped by the Nancheng Wall earlier was the best cover.

Unfortunately, this move was useless against the black flood dragon. It didn't need eyesight to accurately judge the position of the two enemies.

They were not at the position of the meteorite bombardment at all. Sun Fuping probably used an escape technique to drag the two to twenty zhang away in the blink of an eye.

But the two had just emerged when the ten pieces of military equipment on the city wall suddenly turned their heads and aimed at this place. The black flood dragon looked leisurely: "You bombed my house just now, was it very cool?"

Crossbow arrows, fire stones, and nail bombs fired together, all greeting the two.

Nian Songyu was surprised by the nail bombs earlier, but now he was embarrassed. The turtle shield was covered with tiny nail dregs, and even his legs were hit by two.

He was covered in a faint green light, having already hard-carried two rounds of flying crossbows and one round of throwing fire stones. Unfortunately, Sun Fuping was not wrong at all. Not only was the effect of the Social Order greatly reduced here, but the true power consumed by his battle was calculated in multiples.

Fortunately, he still won a little time for Sun Fuping, and the earth escape technique was used again, moving the two ten zhang away.

The black flood dragon rubbed its head on the city gate tower: "Don't worry, this is just a warm-up, there are more fun things."

As soon as the words fell, one bat after another flew out of the air holes on the city wall, circling the Nancheng Wall in a scale that covered the sky and the sun.

There must be tens of thousands of them.

Immediately, half of the bats dived to the ground and turned into five vigorous sand leopards; the rest divided into groups in the air and turned into strange birds with sharp beaks and bat wings.

The magic apes were powerful but slow, giving Nian Songyu a chance to swim; the black flood dragon saw this, so it summoned agile sand leopards to make up for the offensive shortcomings, and there were also demon birds launching air strikes. With such an integrated strike from top to bottom, it wanted to see if these two could still turn the sky over.

However, at this time, it could also be seen that Nian Songyu indeed had two brushes. After the sand leopards joined the battle, it was not very convenient for him to hold a shield in one hand, so he simply put away the turtle shield and took another long knife. He Lingchuan stood in the distance, only seeing two green lights flying up and down, as agile as a swimming dragon, fast, accurate, and ruthless, and neither the sand leopards nor the magic apes could get close.

But in the world of the black flood dragon, how could he not pay a price? In just this short while, there were at least a dozen large and small external injuries on Nian Songyu's body, and the blood flowing out soaked his clothes. The heaviest one was caused by the demon bird that swooped down. Although he also cut the demon bird in two, the opponent's sharp beak also broke his face, and the wound from the corner of his forehead to his chin almost pecked his eyeball.

Seeing this scene, He Lingchuan muttered: "Nonsense, can demon beasts change like this?"

Although the original body read few books, it still knew an iron law of this world: whether it is a human or a demon beast, it cannot completely become other creatures, unless it originally has the ability of mimicry and transformation.

Simply put, humans cannot become monsters, and monsters cannot become humans; bats are bats and cannot become leopards or birds, but toad demons can still grow from tadpoles into frogs, because this is their original law.

Humans can make themselves partially alienated through certain supernatural powers or means, but it is not long-lasting, and the consumption and side effects brought are also great.

The so-called iron law is the law that applies everywhere. Is it too unreasonable for these bats to be able to transform at will?

Mao Tao smiled bitterly: "In this place, any strange thing happening can't be counted as strange, right?"

He Lingchuan suddenly heard the sound of breaking through the air from above, and hurriedly made a silent gesture to him, but it was too late.

A demon bird landed on the ruins, less than a zhang away, and the two sides stared at each other.

Landing, it showed how big this thing was. The height of standing upright was almost catching up with He Lingchuan's height.

This thing has wings like a bat, the wings are thin and have membranes, the chest bone protrudes like a dragon bone, and when the wings are folded, there are claws at the front, and the black sharp armor is longer than human fingers.

The beak is sickle-shaped, long and sharp, and one peck can chisel the prey's skull.

Mao Tao was so scared that he drew his waist knife, and He Lingchuan's fingers swayed slightly, his voice as thin as a mosquito: "Don't move!"

Stared at by those earthy yellow eyes, he also felt his scalp tingling. This thing itself is an aggregate of monsters. Besides sand leopards and demon birds, who knows what else it can become? Besides, these things can't be killed, so it's useless for him to work hard.

While He Lingchuan was thinking of countermeasures, the demon bird also tilted its head, as if it was also thinking.

About a few breaths later, the demon bird lost interest in the two, turned its back, flapped its wings, and flew away.

Mao Tao was covered in sweat, and couldn't help but take a long breath: "If I can get out of here, I will definitely offer a few more high incense, and tell the wife to offer a few more meat dishes. It's really the ancestors' blessing!"

That was a monster that even the State Preceptor and Commandant Nian couldn't handle.

"It has nothing to do with your ancestors; it has no hostility toward us, why?" He Lingchuan looked at the black flood dragon on the city gate. These monsters were all summoned by the black flood dragon, both eyes and ears and thugs, and their actions were controlled by the black flood dragon. This demon bird saw He Lingchuan but didn't react, which only shows that the black flood dragon had no desire to attack.

They and Nian Songyu were also setting fires everywhere in the illusion, why was the black flood dragon willing to let them go?
