Chapter 164 Recovery
Hearing this, the Moon Worshiper was stunned for a moment, then he shouted with a dark face: "How dare you play tricks on me?!"
Zhang Xu chuckled: "Oh, you really believe it. Why would I give up the opportunity to be the director of the academy and go to your place to be a little cultist?"
"You are looking for death!" After saying that, the Moon Worshiper controlled the Phantom Dragon to dive down quickly, and the huge dragon head opened its mouth and bit towards Zhang Xu's position.
Zhang Xu raised his staff calmly, and then a green halo spread in all directions. The surrounding grass and trees were summoned and instantly grew up, heading towards the carnivorous plant lying on the ground.
Then Zhang Xu waved his staff and moved away from his original place, avoiding the huge dragon's mouth.
As it missed its bite, it swung its tail towards where she was standing, and the huge dragon tail smashed down on her head with the force of breaking the wind. Unfortunately, Zhang Xu cast a displacement magic again and avoided this powerful blow.
This displacement magic is an instant magic sealed in the staff in Zhang Xu's hand. It is a spell called "Flash". It can make the caster disappear from the original place instantly and then reappear at the location locked by the spell.
Although its casting speed and response speed are extremely fast, its disadvantage is that the distance is too short, and it can only be used as a spell to dodge attacks. If you want to travel long distances, this spell cannot be used.
At this time, she has 7 uses of the "Flash" skill in her staff left, which means she can use it to dodge 7 critical hits.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xu turned his head to look at the Piranha Plant not far away. At this time, under the repair of the plants, the hole on its belly had slowly healed, and the vines on its body were slowly recovering.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Xu calmed down and thought: All I have to do next is to hold him back.
The Moon Worshiper on the dragon's head frowned slightly under the mask. The Phantom Dragon's attack was very powerful both in strength and destructiveness. He did not expect that the opponent could dodge the Phantom Dragon's attacks twice in a row.
But when he saw the opponent's displacement spell without chanting, the Moon Priest understood that it was an instant spell. Generally speaking, instant spells would not be used many times.
“Let’s see how many times you can dodge?” After saying that, he controlled the Phantom Dragon to attack again. Although the Moon Worshiper standing on the dragon’s head also wanted to launch a spell attack, due to the twisting attack of the Phantom Dragon, his body standing on the dragon’s head also shook up and down.
If he had not held on to the two dragon horns tightly, he would have been thrown off. After all, the dragon under his feet was not a real dragon, but a phantom dragon made from a dragon corpse. It did not care about the life or death of its master and would only blindly obey the control.
As for why he didn't get down from the dragon's head and let the Phantom Dragon fight alone, the reason was very simple. He was afraid that he would be attacked by surprise while controlling the Phantom Dragon and would not be able to dodge in time.
After all, he was not a fool. He had already seen Zhang Xu's little tricks. He also noticed the unusual movements of the Piranha Plant on the other side. In order to prevent this from being a trap set for him, he decided not to separate from the Phantom Dragon and use the huge dragon body to protect himself.
At the same time, such a fast and fierce attack was also intended to kill Zhang Xu as soon as possible. As long as Zhang Xu was dead, any conspiracy would be ineffective. However, the opponent was like a slippery loach and could always dodge at the critical moment.
For a moment, the dragon's roar shook the sky and the earth cracked. As the giant dragon attacked, bit, dived, and crashed one after another, the entire battlefield was riddled with holes. Zhang Xu also dodged quickly. If he couldn't dodge, he used "flash" to avoid it.
Seeing Zhang Xu turning his head to look at the Piranha Plant on the other side from time to time, the Moon Worshiper smiled mockingly: "Oh, you are waiting for your Piranha Plant to revive, right? You don't really think that even if it is alive, it can fight against my Phantom Dragon."
"Besides, how could I give you this opportunity?" After saying that, he looked down at Zhang Xu, turned the dragon head, and prepared to attack the carnivorous plant lying on the ground.
Zhang Xu saw this and said quietly: "If I were you, I wouldn't attack it."
Hearing this, the Moon Worshiper paused, but did not stop his actions. He just slowed down his sprint slightly.
"If you attack it, you will definitely regret it." Zhang Xu continued.
"Playing tricks." The Moon Worshiper shouted fiercely, but a trace of doubt rose in his heart: Is it really a trick? Maybe it is the same mechanism as his own clone, once attacked, it will summon a summon like the Phantom Dragon? Or once attacked, it will explode?
With such concerns in mind, the Moon Worshiper suddenly felt restrained and for a moment he couldn't make up his mind whether to attack or not.
"Of course, you can also try it. Come on, fight. If you beat him, I can end the fight." Zhang Xu spread his hands, squinted his eyes and smiled, but his eyes unconsciously swept to the huge carnivorous plant that was still lying not far away.
The Moon Worshiper looked at her expression and was confused: "Is she lying to me? Is she saying this on purpose just to buy time?"
The Moon-Worshipping Priest watched the carnivorous plant slowly revive and knew that he could not delay any longer to avoid any more trouble, so he decided to launch an attack directly.
Of course, he also secretly kept an eye out. He did not let the Phantom Dragon attack directly as before. Instead, he adjusted the angle of the dragon's head, loosened his clenched dragon horns with both hands, and raised them high into the sky.
The golden magic circle from a moment ago reappeared. As his hands fell, bolts of lightning mixed with countless ice spikes and flames smashed towards the carnivorous plant.
As long as it is a long-range attack, even if the carnivorous plant is an exploding trap, it should not be able to hurt him from such a long distance. This is the idea of the Moon Worshiper.
At the same time, he looked towards Zhang Xu below. Sure enough, after Zhang Xu attacked the carnivorous plant, he directly raised his staff and condensed one emerald green spear after another, stabbing towards the Moon Worshiper who was standing at the dragon head and casting a spell.
Seeing this, the Moon Worshiper felt a little relieved, because as long as he stopped her when she attacked the Piranha Plant, it would prove that her previous behavior was just bluffing.
For this reason, the Moon Worshiper did not stop the attack, but only ordered the Phantom Dragon to raise its body slightly to avoid the spears from piercing the dragon's head and himself.
Under his control, the Phantom Dragon quickly raised its body, and those wooden spears only pierced the dragon's body and were blocked by the hard cuticle and skeleton, only causing the Phantom Dragon to tremble a few times, without causing any actual damage.
Seeing this, the Moon Worshiper showed an expression as if he saw through everything: "Bluffing!" Then he increased the power of the spells in his hands.
Under the continuous bombardment of spells, Zhang Xu's spells, which were originally attacking, suddenly stopped, and then he revealed a strange smile.
The Moon Worshiper's heart skipped a beat when he saw this. Just as he was about to say something, he felt a powerful wave suddenly coming from below.
Immediately afterwards, huge vines shot out from the smoke one after another, and in almost an instant, they tightly wrapped around the Phantom Dragon's body.
The Moon Worshiper was caught off guard by this sudden attack, and the Phantom Dragon under his feet was stimulated and began to struggle hard. Suddenly, the Moon Worshiper lost his balance and was thrown out from the dragon's head.
Just when he wanted to control the phantom dragon to break free, he found that the entire dragon was entangled in vines and could not move at all, let alone catch him in mid-air.
He frowned, steadied his body in the air, then raised his hands and began to cast a spell. Soon the golden magic circle appeared behind him again, and he stood in mid-air as if he was standing on flat ground.
As more and more vines stretched out from below, the body of the Piranha Plant shrouded in smoke was exposed. As the smoke dissipated, a Piranha Plant that was even bigger than before was seen shaking with its fangs and claws bared.
The originally pink petals have all fallen off, revealing a huge mouth like a pair of pliers and full of sharp teeth. At the same time, from its three-petal mouth, a large number of pink tentacle-like tiny vines spread out.
These vines are more flexible and faster than ordinary vines. From a distance, they look like a miniature version of Flower of the Century.
