Chapter 166 I conquered the Toad King... No, I went to the wrong set.
"Rotting corpses, disgusting mucus everywhere, and that smell."
Lann couldn't smell the smell because of Triss's herbal help. But his demon hunter senses could still "see" the stench - all he could see was a thick red fog.
"This is his lair."
Lann squatted down and used the tip of his sword to pick out some traces of the monster: "It's still very fresh. It just left and was nearby." Neither
of them had the intention to wait here obediently. After all, there is a second operation tonight, so we need to use methods to artificially lure the monster back.
According to Chapelle's information that "monsters like blood and wine", Lan looked around and quickly screened several relatively fresh corpses.
These are "blood".
"It can be regarded as revenge for you. Thank you for your contribution. Please rest in peace."
Lan put his right hand on his chest and prayed in a low voice under Triss's strange eyes.
After politely ending his respect for the dead, Lan took out several barrels of spirits that had been stored in the [Inventory] and poured them on the corpses.
"Wine" is also available.
The pungent smell of alcohol mixed with the disgusting smell of blood suddenly filled the entire space.
Still thinking that all this was not enough, Lan held his nose and walked to the middle, looked at the several passages connected to this transfer point, raised his hand and hit a few [Alder Signs], setting off a hurricane to disperse the smell as much as possible. to expand the scope of communication.
And Triss finally smiled when she saw Lann busy at work, and uttered a few syllables quickly and briefly, and soon the wind started to rise.
This wind was not as strong as Lann's [Alder's Seal], but it was endless, quickly sweeping the smell of blood and wine and spreading it to every corner of the underground passage.
Seeing the witcher turn around in surprise, Triss raised her eyebrows and said: "The warlock's method."
Lann smiled and said: "It seems that you will give me a few more lessons after you go back."
Time passes by. The ground passed, and the two did not wait long. Soon they heard the sound of a giant beating from the pipe in the southeast corner.
Immediately afterwards, a dense squeaking sound began one after another, and countless rats escaped from the pipe. At that moment, the swarm of rats almost blocked the pipe, and they panicked and chose their way out.
Looking at the rodents rushing towards him, Lan frowned slightly. With a regular [Igni Seal], the magic value jumped slightly by single digits.
The cone-shaped fire spurted out, causing the rats to scream even louder.
Before Lann could hit the rats with another [Igni Sign], a thunderous sound of frogs began to echo, drowning out the voices of the rats.
The stench that even Triss' herbs couldn't cover began to pour out.
Lann's lion eyes shrank, and he reflexively cast a [Quen's Seal] on himself. The next second, a ball of mucus spurted in his direction at a speed comparable to a trebuchet, and dispersed in an instant. The fire wave spewed out by his regular power [Igni Seal] hit him hard.
There was a "bang", and the [Explosive Shield] exploded. Lan was carried several meters away by the impact of the seal. He rolled on the ground a few times before standing up, looking at the ball of mucus with lingering fear. .
If he is hit, whether the damage will be serious or not is another matter, but the psychological impact will definitely be huge.
After changing his hand and swiping another [Quen's Seal] for himself, Lann watched a huge figure slowly walking in the darkness.
It staggered and moved slowly, but it was tall. Even when it was curled up, it was two heads taller than Lan.
Moreover, its whole body was covered with densely packed disgusting tumors, which continuously sprayed poisonous pus out.
The monster walking out of the darkness grinned, and its entire mouth opened into four petals like the mutated zombies Lan En saw in his previous life. Each petal was staggered with tiny sharp teeth.
Immediately afterwards, a long tongue with a speed comparable to an arrow shot out from the middle of the four-petal mouth, and the corpses stained with strong alcohol were rolled into the mouth at once. The huge body shook, as if the whole body was working together. Chewing.
Lann grinned: "It seems that you really like wine."
While the monster's thoughts were still in his mouth, Lann sprinted forward like a galloping horse to close the distance. When the other party looked up at him, he raised his hand. The hand glowed white.
[Yaxi Seal] + [Charm]!
A monster of this size is almost at the BOSS level, and may even be stronger than the horned devil he dealt with before. The mental confusion will not last long.
But Lann just needs a fleeting opportunity.
After quickly closing the distance, he immediately lowered himself and patted the ground, causing purple light to begin to flicker in the darkness.
[Yaden Seal]!
As soon as the Toad Prince reacted and wanted to attack Lan, the long tongue that stretched out turned purple, and the trajectory of its movement could be captured by the naked eye.
Lann kept stepping forward and dodging, like a piece of paper, following the swing of the Toad Prince's tongue. From time to time, he would use the Lake Lady's Sword to block and gain strength.
He was holding the enemy back at this moment in order to create opportunities for the sorceress behind him.
The warlock sitting firmly at the back, with enough time to recite the spell, has a killing power that no sword can match.
After the Toad Prince appeared, Triss found a dark corner away from the battlefield. She fully trusted the demon hunter in front of her, so the rhythm of chanting the incantation was particularly steady, and soon a torrent of flames with an astonishing temperature began to condense around her body.
"Lan, get out of the way!"
After hearing the sorceress's reminder, Lan immediately knew that the time had come. He made one last [Arden's Seal] against the ground, and then deliberately hit the toad's tongue.
The huge impact force immediately poured onto Lann's body. As the [Quen's Seal] shattered for the second time, Lann felt like he was hit by a giant with a soft hammer wrapped in a huge amount of sponge, and his whole body flew upside down. out.
The next second, the flames around Triss began to collide violently. Two torrents of flames thicker than a human rushed out, rushing towards the Toad Prince with an astonishing momentum, wrapping him tightly in in.
"Boom!" It was like a war drum falling from a high place, and the muffled sound with a shrill tearing feeling made Lann's eardrums hurt.
Looking up, the tumors on the giant toad were burned to pieces by the flames, and the originally moist skin was now cracked in large areas, like a piece of charred wood.
"Boom!" Violent vibrations came from the feet of the Toad Prince, and then a huge figure stood up like a cannonball!
In previous games, the Toad Prince's attack methods were very varied. In addition to the tongue whip attack that made people unable to react, there were also the slime and venom attacks that were difficult to prevent, as well as the rapid bouncing impact and Taishan pressure that stimulated the entire body.
Because it is a human being, the toad subconsciously does not adapt to four legs when walking, which leads to the initial staggering posture. But the power of those four limbs is no joke. Combined with the huge body, it can't even describe the momentum of its bouncing and impact.
But Lan was not panicking at the moment.
The threat to his life made the Toad Prince run around trying to break through the shackles of the flames, but he didn't know that the area where it was located was the place with the least flames. The entire clearing has long been covered with a torrent of flames, spinning rapidly around the toad, forming a tornado of flames.
This was all because Lan wanted to capture the Toad Prince alive, so Triss deliberately left the door alive.
At this moment, the Toad Prince jumped up on his own initiative, as if he had jumped into the sea of fire. From charcoal roasting to sizzling roasting, he was sucked into the fire tornado with a "squeak" sound.
The only sounds left in the entire clearing were the whistling wind and the roaring fire.
Seeing this, Triss was so anxious that she quickly dispersed the magic power controlling the flames in her hands. The flame tornado remained in place for ten seconds before suddenly dispersing, turning into billowing heat waves and spreading towards the surrounding areas.
The underground space that was originally filled with slime, corpses, garbage, and other colorful things has now turned into colorful black. Except for the big black thing in the shape of a toad in the middle, there is no life at all.
Lann gave himself another Quen with his backhand, then used [Alder's Seal] to break away from the oncoming fire wave, and cautiously approached the Toad Prince who looked like he had turned into a charred wood.
There was a "Woo", and a violent sound broke through the air. Lann's body reaction exceeded the speed of thinking, and he immediately put the Lake Lady's Sword on his chest.
He felt as if he was stabbed in the front with a spear by a charging cavalry, and he almost let go and let the sword fly out.
It's the Toad Prince's tongue.
There was enough mucus on the tongue, and Lann felt an irresistible pull in his hand the next second, and his whole body was pulled forward.
When he looked up again, he saw that his Lake Lady's Sword was stuck in the Toad Prince's mouth by the tongue.
Damn it!
With a "Puff" sound, the glowing sword tip emerged from the Toad Prince's lower lip. The huge body suddenly stiffened and became tense and motionless.
Lan quickly raised his hand and used the [Axi Sigil] to silence the Toad Prince completely and prevent it from continuing to chew the silver sword in its mouth desperately.
The magic power in the body continued to pour out to maintain the status quo. That is, the monster had been seriously injured by the flames, so that Lan could control it like this.
Having rehearsed the cooperation countless times in her mind, Triss trotted forward and opened her arms, and the skilled magic spell sounded. The giant toad's body began to tremble continuously, and then began to shrink and shrink in place contrary to common sense, until it became a A jade sculpture the size of a leather ball.
[Transformation Vessel Sealing Technique], successful.
This monster, which was equivalent to a mini-BOSS, was captured just like that. Not to mention, such a huge and ferocious monster still looks ugly after shrinking.
But Lann looked at the small pointed protrusion under the jade carving with a troubled face: "My sword..." "
It's okay, Lann." Triss was a little funny, but she forced the upward tilt. lips, "I can cancel the [Transformation Sealing Technique] and cast it again after you pull out the sword. The casting and lifting of this spell itself will cause intense pain to the person being cast, depriving them of their mobility. Don't worry about another fight breaking out."
Lann could only nod.
Under the moonlight from the skylight, a black shadow the size of a rubber ball suddenly swelled in the open space, and screams of "croak" sounded intermittently.
But with a "puff", the huge black shadow became quiet, and then the black shadow shrank again until it became a ball.
Lann grabbed the temporary cloak he had brought and wiped the dirt on the Sword of the Lake Lady with disgust. With a wave of his hand, he put Prince Toad's jade carving into the [Inventory].
This is the second benefit of [Transformation and Sealing Technique]. The jade carvings formed by the magic are considered "items" and can be stored in one's own personal space.
Triss stepped forward to check Lan En's body. She saw that Lan En had been knocked away several times before. She was worried because she still didn't understand the principle of [Explosive Shield].
After confirming that the witcher was not injured, the sorceress breathed a sigh of relief.
"Do you still have enough magic power? Do you want to meditate for a while?"
