Positive little sun, magical girl, I am awesome

Chapter 428: Sudden Ambush

No one had expected such a sudden change. The moment Lilith's elbow touched the black gravel on the ground, a huge force grabbed her shoulder armor and dragged her backwards, instantly pulling her away from her original position, where a tiny dagger flashing a strange green light was now stuck.

"Watch out for the rock wall!"

Ian pulled Lilith up and swung his sword to drive away another ray of cold light. Leila had already arrived in front of him at this time. The giant sword slashed forward with a tremendous force and shattered the third ray of cold light with one sword. The tremendous power frightened the enemy, and the encirclement instantly dispersed a lot, giving everyone time to respond.

It was not until then that everyone could finally see clearly that countless scale-like patterns had appeared on the gray-brown rock walls, and the enemy who had initially fought Lucas had now shed his gray-brown camouflage and slowly turned into a bright green.

Lucas could feel the pulse in his neck almost jumping out. He looked at the ambusher in front of him in shock. Compared with the inexplicable attack, the other party's appearance shocked him even more -

The creature in front of him had already peeled off the rock wall. He was nearly two meters tall, covered with dark green scales. His triangular head with a coral-like bone crown drooped down, staring at Lucas.

——This isn't a human! It's... a lizard!?

Lucas's sword was much longer than the opponent's scimitar, so he was not at a disadvantage for a while. After a few breaths of fighting, the huge green lizard jumped back, and its hands with translucent webbed membranes easily clung to the rock wall again, and suddenly opened its mouth -

"Has being with humans brought you any benefits?"

What Xinzi said while speaking was actually standard common language, but the tone was cold and sarcastic.

Lucas' pupils contracted instantly - Poseidon, he, he he he he he... this big lizard can speak human language!

"——It's the Lizardmen!" Leriel on the other side screamed. When did they approach? It was amazing!

Dozens of lizardmen took off their disguises, jumped off the rock wall and attacked the team without saying a word. The moment Lilith swept her sword, three more lizardmen emerged from the shadows. The swords cut through the spider silk ropes in their hands, and the smelly green juice splashed on the rocks with a sizzling sound. Lilith grabbed Leila's shoulders and pulled her back violently, and a poisoned dagger brushed past the latter's hair.

"Be careful, they can Shadow Escape! And they can use poison!" Lilith's face was extremely solemn. These lizardmen were well-trained and merciless. Every strike was directed at their vital points. It seemed that they were determined to fight to the death! Were they finally met someone who could intercept them?

A white light shone from Catherine's hand, gathering into a huge ball of light, illuminating the narrow gap in the mountain, leaving no shadows anywhere to hide. Then countless vines broke out of the ground beside Lilith and entangled the enemy!

"Hmph!" Lilith heard a sneer.

When the vines wrapped around the lizardman's body, the front end of the thorns suddenly froze, and then the gray-white petrified lines spread rapidly along the vines, extending straight to Lilith's hand.

"Lilith, let go!" Catherine hurriedly ordered Lilith to disconnect from the spell. She was shocked at the sight of these raiders' magical attainments being higher than they had imagined.

Lilith stopped singing immediately when Catherine spoke. The gray vines were petrified and condensed on the ground, like a new artistic stone sculpture, but at this moment they became an obstacle for the teammates, making it difficult for everyone to move, but the lizardmen were not affected at all and were still extremely flexible. Hannah's guardian was unfortunately attacked by a lizardman, and the wound was surprisingly green!

"Hannah, hurry, go..." The partner's face turned pale in a short while. He didn't dare to move, but still held the sword in front of Hannah.

"There! Their shaman is there—!"

Lariel drew his bow and drew his arrow. The elf's good eyesight allowed him to see the key to the battle first. There was a lizardman wearing a waist chain made of human finger bones, constantly flicking his tongue but never moving forward!

He drew his bow and the arrow flew straight there. The lizardman he pointed out heard the sound and looked towards Lariel.

"——Heh, what a fool."

Lilith and Ian, who had charged directly at the shaman after hearing Lariel's warning, heard these words at the same time, but now was not the time to think. The two of them dodged and covered each other, relying on swordsmanship and magic to fight their way out, vowing to take down the lizardman shaman first and gain an advantage for their teammates.

However, the shaman was not as weak as the human wizard. Lariel's arrow was crushed into powder by magic before it reached him. He was not at all panicked when he saw Lilith and Ian rushing towards him. He dodged the first sword swung by Ian, turned around, and lashed out with his huge and thick tail towards Lilith. There was a bone ring inlaid with crystals at the end of the tail, which made Lilith see stars and fly out.

"You also--" Lilith struggled to get up, looking at the sparkling tail covered with crystals, and spoke with difficulty.

The lizard shaman looked at him with indifference and disgust in his eyes.

"--It's too bitter." Lilith wiped the mixture of blood and saliva from the corner of her mouth.

These words obviously had a great impact on the lizardman shaman. Lilith saw the transparent nictitating membrane in his golden vertical pupils blinking again and again, and then he snorted coldly again.

"...What a disgusting... despicable human!" The lizard shaman suddenly cut his palm and smeared the blood on the dark crystal at the tip of his tail.

The sky seemed to darken in an instant.

Countless black air emanated from the crystal. The holy light spell summoned by Catherine was still in the air, but it could no longer dispel the sudden shadow. Lilith then discovered that the shadow core that they had been working so hard to find for Hannah was on the shaman's tail.

"boom!"

The hard rock and gravel ground suddenly collapsed into quicksand. Lilith was unsteady on her feet and quickly thrust her sword into the ground. Looking back, she saw that many people had slid into the large pit that suddenly formed. The rock and gravel were small and slippery, but the lizardmen were walking on it as if it were flat ground. Seeing this, she gave up fighting them in close combat and jumped out of the pit one after another.

As Lulu screamed, hexagonal stone pillars rose from all directions. Jaina's palms burst into a brilliant silver light, but suddenly dimmed when they touched the spells on the surface of the stone pillars.

"Shadow Resonance!"

Hannah looked at the crystal in her hand. The liquid energy inside the Shadow Core was boiling, producing strange resonance waves with the stone pillars. A strange totem began to condense above their heads. It was the Petrified Eye!

Seeing this, Leila passed Lilith and rushed towards the shaman again, but saw the lizardmen roaring in unison, the sound waves were sharper and more piercing than those emitted by the razor owl just now. Leila was closest to Lilith, and blood instantly flowed from her ears.

But Lela was still moving forward! She twisted her body, and the huge sword blade led her to the shaman hiding behind the other lizardmen, sweeping several people with terrifying might. The cold steel of Dragon Fang Castle was made of a special material, emitting a faint blue light, clearly reflecting the fear on the faces of the lizardmen, as if they didn't expect that there would still be people who dared to continue charging. After that, another figure came in and attacked the shaman again with a mysterious speed!

"Kara-!"

After Leila cleared the obstacles, Lilith slashed the shaman's tail with a sword, and the bone ring shattered!
