The Left Bow Was Saving the Little Knight

"Clap clap clap clap—"

A series of rapid, high-speed arrow-drawing sounds suddenly erupted in the underground space!

Before today, no one could have associated such speed with an arrow that requires drawing a bow to shoot!

Putting aside whether a human hand could withstand such high-speed, Continuous Shooting, could the bow itself withstand it?

Da Er saw was a black torrent rushing down like a flood bursting its banks, instantly engulfing the Insect King.

"Bang bang bang—"

A large number of arrows collided violently with the insect king's exoskeleton. The arrows, formed from condensed magic, shattered instantly, and the entire underground space was filled with a popping sound like popcorn.

A single arrow may not be very powerful, but when there are many of them, the impact alone is enough to shatter the armor!

Right now, the Insect King was being rammed head-on by the huge "Black Dragon" formed from the arrow, and its tough body was stuck in an unavoidable stiffness.

A clear look of astonishment appeared on its face. This was probably the biggest emotional fluctuation it had ever experienced since its birth, as if it had been slapped in the face by Tsutogi.

Where did that arrow come from?!

"Ah!" It let out a piercing roar. The cracked exoskeleton on its body was rapidly repairing itself at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even piling up more and more. Was it going to withstand the impact of a large number of arrows and launch a counterattack? And it seemed that it could actually move its feet!

But just then, a valiant female elf suddenly shouted:

"Everyone, lend me your magic!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the torrent of magical arrows suddenly increased in size by more than double!

The sudden increase in impact force caused the unsuspecting Insect King to fall to the ground, even being pressed flat on its back, its beautiful face inherited from You Fei displaying a large "confused" expression.

At this moment, its mental state must be:

What the hell is that? It's so powerful!

The broken arrows scattered in all directions, and naturally some fragments also landed in front of Da Er. The arrow fragments turned into dust and gradually dissipated in front of him. After all, they were generated by magic, and they would disappear on the spot immediately after being damaged, which was really environmentally friendly.

Seeing the unique, slightly greenish magic, Da Er immediately realized who it was, and a smile suddenly appeared on his lips as he turned to look at where the arrow had come from.

As he turned his head, a large blob of sticky, green plant extract splashed onto his face with a "plop," instantly giving him a rich green glow, making him look as if he had been dyed by Sain.

The plant extract was far more effective than diluted Healing Potion. Da Er immediately felt his strength return and his back and legs were no longer sore. He regained his high spirits.

But when he saw clearly who the people who came to help were, his high spirits gradually became arrogant and unrestrained.

Si Telan, from the Elven Forest, appears to be rescuing the Farron Guard

"I can't do it anymore, you guys need to step in!"

Si Telan rode on the back of a giant wolf, which leaped nimbly back and forth between the steep rock walls.

She kept drawing her bow and arrows, shooting them out in a continuous stream, like a mythical wolf rider, looking heroic and dashing.

After not seeing her for many days, her eyes seemed to have gained a bit of wisdom from knowledge, and lost some of the wildness of an adventurer. I wonder if it's because she's been following Wei En Ma around and being trained every day. But after all, she's an elf, so she looks good no matter what.

Unfortunately, she looked miserable, as if she had just eaten a sour lemon, her face contorted in pain, and she let out a loud shout, oblivious to her composure.

As soon as she finished speaking, the longbow in her hand suddenly exploded, turning into scattered fragments. Her arm also withered rapidly from the excessive force, and she swayed so much that she almost lost her grip on the giant wolf. Several connections that were transmitting magic power to her were instantly severed.

Her magic was completely depleted, and she didn't know whether she should drink Healing Potion or a magic potion first. In a brief moment of hesitation, she spat out a mouthful of blood, which also had a grassy and woody scent.

While others pursue instantaneous killing power, she deliberately prolonged Zuo Gong's attack by several seconds in order to suppress the Insect King, thus exceeding her own limit.

Fortunately, the longbow in the Left Bow Set can be changed at will. If the Left Bow Set were ruined because of this, she would have nowhere to cry.

Suddenly, a rock wall burst open and a large number of vines grew rapidly, abruptly snatching the swaying Si Telan from the wolf's back. The giant wolf offered no resistance, as if the vines actually represented an ally.

Da Er seemed to know someone who played with plants, and looked up.

Sure enough, standing on the vines Aleya, Gold-Rank Adventurer from Hasawi Squad and a renowned botanist.

If she's here, it means the rest of Hasawi Squad is here too, right?

Matilda's Hell March is perfect for the current situation. If you give it to Fan En or another hunter, they might be able to create a monkey version of the chaos that Hero Elsa made back then!

However, Da Er didn't see Fingel or Matilda. Instead, in the blink of an eye, Malu from the Strategy Team suddenly rushed up to him and flicked him on the head, while also shoving a half-full Element Bottle into his hand.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and come help our boss, meow!"

Malu's boss, then that can only be—

A wisp of fire suddenly flashed in the underground space. Although it was only for a brief moment, the warmth that suddenly appeared in the dark underground was enough to give people goosebumps.

That was no ordinary flame; fireballs and the like couldn't compare to it at all.

That was the nightmare of all invaders in the Zane Dungeon. If the Sun Warrior could use fire, it would already be enough to make the invaders wary.

But if the Sun Warrior learn to imbue their straight swords with flames, then the invaders will need more than just vigilance.

Their top priority is to quickly choose a suitable urn for their ashes!

"Bang bang bang!"

The Insect King, which had just recovered from being smeared in the left bow, hadn't even had time to stand up when a flaming straight sword slashed down on its waist!

It may seem like there's only one sword strike, but in reality, it has already unleashed an unimaginable number of strikes in that instant!

The thick exoskeleton shattered instantly, leaving conspicuous burn marks in the scorching flames. The exoskeleton, which could previously regenerate quickly, could no longer grow!

Once burned by embers, recovery is not so easy.

"Ah!" The Insect King let out a miserable cry, enough to satisfy some people with special XP.

Not only was the exoskeleton unable to recover quickly, but it also once again experienced the humiliating stiffness and immobility of its body!

What the hell is this Weapon Skill? How come so many people they've parasitized have no knowledge of it?

Something from the Warrior Country?

It's one of the classic sights in the Zane Dungeon: a flaming straight sword!

His master was not wearing the famous legendary Thief Hood at this moment; his dazzling blond hair was wildly displayed, indicating that he was in high spirits.

"Leon!" As if seeing a good brother, Da Er immediately called out and rushed over.

Leon had just raised a thumb, and before he could even point it at himself in the classic Demi-Human prince gesture, he suddenly sensed an extremely dangerous aura emanating from the side.

"Rub!"

The Ringed Knight Straight Sword and the Farron Greatsword crossed and overlapped, blocking the Insect King's claws at the same time!

The two combined are just enough to block the attack; neither can be missing!

Da Er and Leon exchanged a glance, both pleased by their perfect teamwork. They then joined forces, using their combined strength to try and repel the Insect King.

However, with a loud rumble, a giant tree resembling a wooden dragon suddenly rushed from the other side and knocked the Insect King away. Using the word "knocked away" might be an inaccuracy, because the thing suddenly split into several pieces and swallowed it, crashing into the rock wall on the other side, where explosive fruits had somehow grown.

"Boom!"

A towering flame erupted here, and the entire underground space shook again. The remaining little bit of the Royal Palace of Red collapsed completely. The building, which was not particularly majestic or grand to begin with, was now reduced to ashes.

Thankfully, Ur King couldn't see it, or he would be heartbroken.

"How did you get here so quickly?"

Although he knew that such an explosion wouldn't kill the Insect King and that a fierce battle was yet to come, it couldn't hide Da Er's inner elation. It was rare to see him so happy.

"I met Klan in Lake Liurnia and he hurriedly dragged me over."

Leon tossed several amplification potions that Da Er other side frequently used, and also cast an Oath of Sunlight and Flame Grant Me Strength on the people around him, seizing every opportunity to replenish their strength—a habit they had developed over their long adventures in the dungeon.

Klan also popped his head out, proudly boasting, "I'm pretty amazing, right, Brother Da Er! And everyone's really loyal. I just told them you were in trouble and they rushed over without even asking what happened!"

When he entered the Zane Dungeon, he found the portal back to the Arnor Kingdom in the Hunter's Dream, without encountering any detours or riddles.

Due to the time constraints, there was no time to leave the dungeon and run into the city to find people. He went directly to Lake Liurnia and quickly circled around, "catching" all the familiar people he encountered. As a result, some people who usually travel in groups arrived before they had even formed a team.

The group consisted of Leon and Malu from the Strategy Team, Aleya from the Hasawi Squad, Si Telan from the Morning Wind Squad, and several elves who had helped her distribute flyers for the Wei En Ma Magic Class, as well as a group of Farron Guard who were training in Lake Liurnia. However, they did not come down; instead, they joined the others on the ground and were now eliminating the parasites.

"Me too!" With a spirited voice, a Curse Frog poked its head out from the crowd.

Luo Jieer was also riding on the back of the Curse Frog.

"Hehe, I've never seen a parasitic monster before, I absolutely can't let this go." He chuckled and wiped away the drool that had involuntarily seeped out.

It seems that Fingel and the Skyrim Strategy Team are still missing from the list of old acquaintances. In fact, Klan did encounter Lu Lu Wo, but after hearing that the Zane Dungeon had extended its reach to Red and that the monsters Da Er encountered were parasitic monsters that were rampaging in Red, Luluvo turned around and ran away.

She didn't run away in a panic; she left a sentence behind before turning and running.

"Elsa seems to still be lingering near the Leyndell and hasn't gone far. I'll try to shake her back!"

Hopefully, she can successfully bring the Brave back, and then the Insect King might be able to enjoy the same treatment as Aldrich.

"Da Er, our target is that guy, right?" Leon watched as the Insect King slowly rose from the smoke and dust of the explosion, his face full of displeasure. He switched his weapon to the Caria Straight Sword, wanting to test how much magic could damage the opponent.

"Should we stall them here until more people arrive before making any plans?" Si Telan's injuries had healed, and she even seemed more excited than before; that was the true value of Aleya.

Da Er looked at the Insect King and said:

"No, we'll crush it here in one fell swoop!"

The confidence that Leon and his men gave Da Er was just as great as, or even greater than, the confidence that the Farron Guard brought in to provide support.

Sensing the fighting spirit in his tone, Leon smiled, mustered his courage, and adopted the same fighting spirit he had shown when beating up his father.

"You deserve to die!"

The Insect King's body made a crackling sound as its size suddenly shrank considerably, giving it a more restrained yet powerful aura.

These newly appeared people all possessed considerable strength, but it showed no worry whatsoever; on the contrary, it became excited because of their increased numbers.

Battle is imminent.

Aleya's Giant Plant were the first to disrupt the scene, sending stones and dust flying everywhere.

Malu's figure flashed through the dust like a ghost, and in the blink of an eye, several clearly visible slash marks appeared on the insect king's exoskeleton. That's how sharp Mercenary Twinblades is; it's a pity it didn't cut into the flesh.

No matter how much damage was done to the Insect King, it was insignificant. It suddenly locked onto Malu and thrust out its spear like a dragon!

With a "bang," it pierced Malu, but her body suddenly exploded into a wooden stake. It was an illusion. The elven mage who had successfully cast the illusion grinned slyly.

Before the Insect King could get angry, the wooden stake suddenly flashed and transformed into a cute, big-eyed Curse Frog, who then exhaled a thick cloud of Curse of Death smoke.

"What is that?!"

For some reason, the Insect King, sensing the intense threat of death emanating from the smoke, even became more articulate and instantly retreated, not wanting to be touched by the Curse of Death smoke at all.

This action played right into people's hands. Having already anticipated its location, Si Telan unleashed Arrow Rain of arrows upon it. Although the barrage of arrows did not cause it any harm, the simultaneous release of arrows with various effects left people disoriented.

The Great Carian soared into the sky, seemingly gathering its strength.

You Fei's combat experience told the Insect King that he had to interrupt the opponent at this time, but the wolf howl sounded, and when he turned around again, Da Er attacked with Wolf Leap.

The Insect King snorted disdainfully and raised its hand to block. It had already figured out the power of the Wolf Leap and knew that it only needed to exert a little force to break through.

"Sizzle—"

Like a sharp blade slicing through fabric, the Farron Greatsword cleaved most of his arm in two!

"Varied!"

The Great Carian, having fully charged up, landed at that moment, its massive sword instantly crushing him, and a dazzling blue magical light illuminated the entire arena!

"Cough cough," Da Er coughed up a mouthful of blood after landing a successful blow. He was not injured, but blood was flowing from all seven orifices. It was obvious that this was the result of him giving himself a lot of buffs, or what we would call "monkey tricks." The last time he did this was when he fought Artorias.

Although my body aches a little, it feels great!

"Did you kill them?"

He searched around for the Insect King's figure, Great Carian left a deep sword wound, but the enemy was nowhere to be seen.

Just then, he suddenly sensed something standing behind him. Without turning around to look, he leaped forward.

But the thing had already appeared in the direction he jumped—it was the Insect King, whose exoskeleton was mostly shattered!

Despite the blood flowing from it, it didn't become dejected; instead, it opened its mouth wide and roared at Da Er:

"Give me!"

An eerie light erupted from its mouth and struck Da Er squarely!

In that instant, he felt his body was losing control, as if it was about to be taken away by the other party!

"Da Er!" People rushed over, but it was too late.

A strange thing appeared in Da Er's eyes; the Insect King's consciousness had successfully entered his body!

This is another of its tricks: invading other people's bodies!

Everyone's inner world is different. After successfully entering Da Er's mind, the Insect King felt as if he saw an unnamed grave. The tombstone was ancient and desolate, and there was nothing around it except an empty square under the moonlight.

Next, it only needs to find what Da Er is most sensitive and hates, shake his heart, and then it can take over his body!

After taking over Da Er's body, it goes on to steal other people's bodies. In the end, it becomes the strongest, which is why it feels that the more people it fights, the better.

But just then, a deep roar came from behind.

That's strange. I don't think I've had a chance to do anything yet, so why is Da Er's Spiritual World reacting on its own?

The Insect King turned around.

It saw the moon and the grave.

And a Gray Wolf, carrying a Greatsword, standing atop the grave!

It's not the Old Wolf of Farron, but that being from an even more ancient time!

"Roar!"

A majestic wolf howl exploded in the Insect King's mind the moment the Gray Wolf appeared.
