Chapter 715 Techniques for Overcoming the Strong with the Weak
Appearance?
what is that?
The Lion could not understand what the Sword-wielding Taoist was saying. He only felt dizzy and weak. He could not control his body and was also experiencing a bone-chilling pain.
A sense of crisis welled up in his heart. As he watched the sword-wielding Taoist slowly get up from the ground, the Lion felt more and more uneasy.
What... what on earth is going on?!
Jie Jie Jie!
Just as the lion was at a loss, the swordsman in the distance suddenly laughed sinisterly.
Surprised?
"My body is out of control? My whole body feels like it's being bitten by insects?"
"You thought you were safe and sound? But look at you now."
"Look around you! You idiot!!!"
The moment he finished speaking, the Lion King noticed his surroundings distorting. The entire world seemed to transform into a giant vortex. For a moment, he couldn't comprehend his surroundings; a wave of dizziness washed over him. Gradually, he closed his eyes, seemingly falling into a deep sleep...
"no!!!!!"
Almost the next second after he closed his eyes, the lion suddenly roared and then abruptly opened his eyes.
Hoo-ha-hoo-ha-hoo-hoo
Even though less than a second had passed, he began to gasp for breath as if he had been holding his breath for a long time. His pupils bulged outward uncontrollably, and his heart was pounding as if he had been stimulated by something.
However, he didn't care about any of that right now. The first thing he did when he opened his eyes was to look at his surroundings. In his mind, the environment had just undergone a huge change.
But upon closer inspection, he was somewhat disappointed, because the surrounding environment had not changed at all compared to before; there was no distortion, no vortex, and it was exactly the same as before.
Looking at the sword-wielding Taoist again, his state hadn't changed much. He was standing not far away, looking at him with a sinister smile outlined on his mask.
The environment hasn't changed, and neither has the sword-wielding Taoist. So what has changed?
and many more! ! !
The Lion King was trying to figure out what had just happened, and it was during this process that he suddenly realized his mind was working perfectly.
During the battle, his mind was like a gear that hadn't been oiled for a long time, making his thinking choppy and hindering his combat performance.
But now, he suddenly felt his mind was much clearer, and his thinking became quite fast. It wasn't that he had become smarter, but rather that he had returned to normal from his previous dull state.
On the surface, regaining one's lost mind is certainly a good thing, but now that the Lion's mind has returned to normal, he feels a vague unease about it.
If, as he suspects, the other side can manipulate his thoughts, then that would be truly terrifying.
As a silver-tier combat class, his magic resistance isn't exceptionally high, but it's certainly not to the point where he can be easily manipulated.
To achieve this, it would require at least a Gold-tier being, or multiple mages simultaneously using mind control.
However, judging from the current situation, they only have one mage, and he's not even a Gold-rank mage. How could they possibly achieve this?
The lion was a little confused. Just then, he subconsciously moved his body, and to his surprise, he suddenly discovered that he could move again!
"Me!!! Ah!!!!"
The joy lasted for less than half a second, because the instant he realized he could move, a pain that seemed a thousand times greater than the previous one struck him.
Despite the pain, the lion looked down and discovered that his body was covered with all sorts of insects. Some of these insects were crawling on his skin, while others had even penetrated deep into his flesh.
They devoured the flesh and blood of the tyrannical lion, drinking its blood as if they were hosting a grand feast inside its body, with the tyrannical lion itself being the delicacy of that feast.
The pain was indescribable; even the Lion King, with his exceptional pain tolerance, couldn't help but scream in agony, just as he had said before, he had never been so wretched.
"You!!! What have you done to me?!"
The Lion was no stranger to these insects, as he had seen them not long ago inside the bodies of his teammates and enemies.
He knew that these insects were spread to them by their enemies using special means.
However, he should have tried his best to avoid them during the battle. He dodged every poison burst and usually avoided attacks with poison mist. Under these circumstances, even if he unfortunately came into contact with some insects, it would not have been more than ten.
But judging from his current physical condition, there were not just a dozen or so, but thousands of insects, as if he had fallen into an insect nest.
Why did this happen? He was so careful in everything he did! Why?!
The Lion couldn't understand, so even though he was in great pain, he still stared intently at the sword-wielding Taoist in the distance, wanting to get an answer from him.
Seeing this, the sword-wielding Taoist chuckled mockingly, then said with a smile:
"Haha! You can't understand, can you? That's why I said you're too attached to appearances!"
The Sword Master wasn't surprised by the Lion's confusion, because figuring out the whole story from the start of the battle and discovering all the key moments wasn't as easy as it seemed.
Let's start from the beginning. In fact, even before the Sword-wielding Taoist appeared, he, or rather they, had already begun to make their plans.
The strength of the Lion Kings is undeniable. With their powerful physique and overwhelming offensive capabilities, if they were to land a blow, none of them could withstand a second strike.
This extreme attack power gives him a huge advantage, which is fatal to the three of them, since they are just three ordinary demons, not leaders or demon kings.
Therefore, based on the positive data, none of the three of them can beat the other.
However, battles are not just about data. Environment, status, equipment, items, teamwork, and so on can all determine the course of a battle.
There are many who can defeat the strong with the weak in this world, and naturally, some skills are needed to achieve this.
The three sword-wielding Taoists understood this, so when they were preparing to surround and kill the violent lion, they began to use some clever tricks.
So what is this clever trick?
That is.....
Formation!
