The group quickly retreated, their eyes filled with a heavy expression.
Although they had anticipated that they would be no match for the Profound Crystal Griffin, the fact that Captain Wang was knocked away in one move still made their hearts sink again.
After all, Captain Wang is arguably the inspector with the strongest ability to withstand direct attacks in the Plateau Erosion Zone right now!
But even this person was sent flying with a single blow!
Running away now is useless, but is fighting really effective?... This thought was hard to suppress in everyone's minds.
Before they could think any further, a panting voice rang out in the team channel.
"Quickly, attack! It's not completely hopeless yet. The Profound Crystal Griffin's attacks have weakened considerably. Zhou Xuan's attack just now, although it didn't kill it, inflicted more serious injuries. We have a chance!"
Everyone was slightly taken aback, and their gazes turned to the back of the approaching Profound Crystal Griffin.
Suddenly, a huge figure burst out of the dust and smoke, heading straight for them!
Can we fight?... No one was sure, but now it seemed that fighting was the only option.
Jiang Yue gritted his teeth, raised his hand, and a gust of wind gathered around him.
" Wind Howl - Wind Blade: Consecutive Slashes!"
Dozens of wind blades shot straight towards the flying Profound Crystal Griffin.
The beast's eyes narrowed slightly. Without slowing down, the Profound Crystal Griffin spread its wings and circled around itself, then crashed directly into it.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!..."
A dense clanging of metal filled the air.
The wind blades struck the wings that enveloped the Profound Crystal Griffin, sending sparks flying, but none of them were able to break through the Profound Crystal Griffin's defenses.
"It's injured, but its physical abilities are still intact. Normal attacks won't work; we need to increase the intensity of our attacks!" Cao Yiyi shouted as he swept backward.
"Damn it!" Jiang Yue cursed through gritted teeth, but his hand didn't stop moving; he raised it again.
Wind blades formed again, but there were only a few, not as many as before.
However, each of these wind blades was much larger than the previous ones.
The wind howled, and several wind blades flew out once again.
Following closely behind was a cloud of pale green smoke.
" Corrosion and acid mist!"
Han Ling leaned back, her gaze fixed on the distance.
Several much larger wind blades attacked, aiming at the wounds on the Profound Crystal Griffin.
This time, the Profound Crystal Griffin finally stopped using its wings to shield itself and charge forward headfirst.
It looked at the wind blades and opened its mouth.
"Whoosh--"
An icy blue breath was exhaled.
The two collided, and the wind blade dissipated immediately, along with the pale green smoke that followed it.
"No, is there really still a chance?" Zhou Xuan murmured to himself, looking at the scene in the distance.
No one replied, and no one had time to reply.
The attack just now caused the Profound Crystal Griffin a little trouble, but only a little.
The Profound Crystal Griffin's gaze was fixed on the two people who had just attacked it. Its massive figure blurred and transformed into a black streak, flying straight away.
"Bang!"
Yao Guanyu was sent flying.
Jiang Yue, slow down! The moment he realized his attack was ineffective, he manipulated the whirlwind to carry him backward, but...
Jiang Yue raised his gaze and looked at the enormous figure that had appeared in front of him; his pupils contracted slightly.
The beast's claws rose, then fell...
"Boom--"
A huge explosion resounded on the talons of the Profound Crystal Griffin, followed by the Profound Crystal Griffin's painful roar.
Jiang Yue's eyes lit up, and he raised his hand.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!..."
One clanging sound after another rang out from the Profound Crystal Griffin.
The Profound Crystal Griffin's breathing suddenly became heavier, and the suppressed pain could be clearly felt.
But there was no joy on Jiang Yue's face.
The wind blades that suddenly condensed could only produce this level of effect. Even the increased breathing of the Profound Crystal Griffin was caused by the wind blades striking its wounds.
Most importantly...
He looked up, gazing into the same pair of eyes that were also looking at him.
"Bang!"
A humanoid figure flew out after a two-second delay.
In the distance, Han Ling's gaze darkened once more.
She watched the figure flying towards her, and without hesitation, raised her gun.
"Bang--"
The Marrow-Exploding Bullet was fired from the barrel, streaking forward in a fiery white trail.
"Whoosh--"
The Profound Crystal Griffin flapped its wings, dodging the attack, and then flew towards the figure ahead with little reduction in speed.
"Bang! Bang!"
Two more shots.
One shot was dodged, while the other exploded on the body of the Profound Crystal Griffin.
An angry roar rang out.
The explosion did cause some damage to the Profound Crystal Griffin, but only a little.
In the time it took to fire those two shots, the Profound Crystal Griffin had already arrived in front of Han Ling!
The claws rose, then swung down.
Han Ling had no time to dodge, so she could only raise the sniper rifle and hold it against her chest.
"Clang--"
The beast's claws pressed down on the gun barrel, falling onto Han Ling's Fluid Battle Armor.
The next instant, Han Ling's figure flew straight out.
The Profound Crystal Griffin flapped its wings to adjust its balance, and was just about to fly over to eliminate the human who could harm it when a roar suddenly came from behind.
" Fivefold Force - Tear the Sky!"
"Clang--"
A gigantic figure flashed across the battlefield.
From the side, attack after attack flew toward the Profound Crystal Griffin.
However, compared to the damage they could cause, what was far more significant were the countless figures that flew out of the water.
Once, twice, three times...
The group was knocked away time and time again, but they got back up each time.
However, compared to their injuries, the damage suffered by the Profound Crystal Griffin seemed rather minor.
The Profound Crystal Griffin will focus on attacks, using its still-mobile parts to defend itself against attacks that could injure it.
Wings, intact forepaws, tail, even the head...
The Profound Crystal Griffin Profound Crystal Griffin severely injured, but its Sixth Tier body was still intact. Unless the attack was specifically aimed at the injured area, other attacks would hardly have much effect on it.
It's the same even if it uses its head to push against it!
"Bang!"
Once again, Han Ling was sent flying.
She lay on the ground, breathing slightly, then with a forced effort, managed to stand up again.
During this process, my gaze unconsciously drifted towards the spear in my hand.
The sniper rifle had several claw marks and tiny cracks in many places.
This was because after she broke through to the Fifth Tier, she specially went to the Martial World Easy Exchange to have a weapon made of Fifth Tier Calamity Beast materials re-customized.
Otherwise, the sniper rifle would probably be broken by now!
