Chapter 475 Old Man's Ginseng Essence
Click, click, click! ! !
Driven by energy, numerous small holes appeared on the robotic arm, spewing out high-temperature steam, poised to unleash its attack, just a second before it was about to launch...
boom! ! ! ! ! !
A giant pendulum formed from roots slammed into him. Before the mechanical captain could react, the massive root hammer had already struck him.
The powerful force unleashed a devastating attack, blasting the mechanical captain dozens of meters away and snapping the trees in its path.
The move he was about to execute was abruptly interrupted by this sudden attack.
Click... Sizzle... Click... Sizzle...
The mechanical captain was quite robust, so the attack didn't kill him outright. However, due to the lack of timely defense, his body was badly damaged, and his right hand was even bent, requiring considerable effort to straighten.
This was actually due to the mechanical captain's carelessness. In a normal battle, it would have been impossible for him not to notice the danger behind him. After all, he was able to handle the previous ground-based root attack, so how could he not notice such a large attack?
But here's the problem: because the roots couldn't do much damage to him, the mechanical captain, who was in a charging state, didn't pay much attention to what was behind him, and even when his warning system sounded an alarm, he ignored it.
However, what he didn't expect was that his actions gave the opponent an opportunity to take advantage of him, resulting in him being seriously injured.
The mechanical captain didn't regret it, because it wouldn't change anything. Rather than regretting his decision, he should focus on dealing with the enemy in front of him.
Aside from the crazed little ginseng spirits, the most eye-catching thing on the scene was that enormous figure.
Gululu~
"Cough cough! You survived one of my attacks, young man..."
The speaker was a giant ginseng spirit. Unlike the other smaller ginseng spirits, he was much larger and more human-shaped, but correspondingly, he looked much older.
He is called the Old Ginseng Spirit. Unlike the other little ginseng spirits, he is a leader-level monster. The roots that broke through the soil and the little ginseng spirits that crawled out of the ground were all his doing.
At this moment, his right hand was still in the form of the root hammer, which made the mechanical captain quickly realize that he was the enemy who had just ambushed him from behind.
Without hesitation, the mechanical captain used his own surveillance system to investigate the guy's strength.
"Danger! Danger! The enemy's life energy is unusually strong."
A strong life energy basically means that this guy is extremely powerful, and judging from the system's prompts, given the current state of the mechanical captain, his chances of winning against this guy are undoubtedly extremely low.
Therefore, the mechanical captain must make a decision immediately.
There's no reason to hesitate. In this situation, the obvious choice is to escape. If we fight, we'll probably die here. If we escape, we can at least send the information back.
Where there is life, there is hope.
Although the mechanical captain didn't know the saying, he understood the principle. So after analyzing the battle situation, he took action without hesitation.
Boom!
As several small canisters landed, a very peculiar plume of smoke began to envelop the mechanical captain. This smoke possessed the ability to shield against psionic perception; as long as...
Whoosh! ! ! !
Several tendrils suddenly pierced through the smoke and attacked the mechanical captain directly, causing the mechanical captain to malfunction briefly.
However, his reaction was quite quick. Although he didn't know how the other side sensed him through the smoke, the mechanical captain reacted quickly when the tendril wrapped around him.
Phew! ! !
Steam billowed out, and the mechanical captain's body was propelled backward at high speed by a recoil force.
This also meant that the vines that could have wrapped around his whole body only wrapped around one of his arms.
Zizzi! !
The entangled arm emitted high-temperature steam, but this time the vines were clearly much stronger, and it would be impossible to burn them off in a short time.
Time waits for no one. As the steam bursts forth, the other end of the vine is also exerting its strength. At this rate, before he can burn the vine, the other party will pull him over.
To engage that giant in close combat is tantamount to suicide.
So, the mechanical captain made a quick decision, twisting his arm so hard that it broke, and then fled backward at top speed.
There's nothing to hesitate about. A broken arm can be transplanted, but a life is truly gone.
After escaping the control of the vines, the mechanical captain dared not linger. Taking advantage of the opportunity, he quickly ran away, using all his skills to create a large distance in an instant.
call! ! ! !
Just then, the old ginseng spirit broke through the smoke barrier and saw the mechanical captain who was trying to escape. As the distance between the two sides grew further and further, the old ginseng spirit did not seem to be in any hurry.
Because he knew that the other party could not escape this forest.
Gululu~
With a commotion, the old ginseng spirit's body slowly merged into the earth.
..........
click!
boom! ! ! !
Suddenly, a white hand covered in roots emerged from the soil. The hand slammed into the ground, pulling out a radish along with the mud. That's how the ginseng spirit emerged from the soil.
The first thing he did after appearing was to look ahead. As his target, the mechanical captain was already lying on the ground, with one foot on his head, and the mechanical pupils had lost their light.
"Old man, you're too slow..."
The mocking voice of the Green Hat Martial Artist rang out, clearly indicating that he had killed the Mechanical Captain before the Old Man Ginseng Spirit could.
"Ahem! As I get older, my body isn't as robust as it used to be..."
The old ginseng spirit seemed unsurprised, after all, he had long known that the mechanical captain could not escape this forest, which was why he was so unhurried.
"You old man..."
Cui Li, the martial artist, originally intended to tease his opponent, given his consistently wicked personality. After being summoned by Lin Tian, he had been the subject of many sarcastic remarks from his own faction of monsters.
However, this move was ineffective against the old ginseng spirit. Perhaps it was because of his advanced age that the old ginseng spirit possessed a calm and composed temperament, which meant that he would not be broken down by the sharp tongue of the Green Hat Martial Artist.
Faced with such a person, the Martial Arts Master Cui Li was at a loss for words and could only give up in frustration.
"Forget it, there's no point in talking to someone like you who's in a vegetative state. Let's get down to business. How did you end up here? Did the King send you?"
Cui Li, the martial artist, was acting alone this time, so he was very puzzled by the arrival of the old ginseng spirit. There was only one possibility for this situation: the king had given him new instructions.
