Chapter 144: Chapter 138 Crocodile Dragon Monster
Su Han's expression grew serious, and his Black Armor covered his entire body. At this moment, the Scorpion Spider Demon was already standing in front of him, flanked by two protector beasts, the Alien Thorn Worms and the Bonestead Rat Demon.
The three monsters guarded him closely, their gaze firmly fixed on the creature in the lake.
The waves in the lake became more turbulent, rushing rapidly toward the shore, where some of the Armored Crocodiles and Giant Crocodile Monsters had already begun to come ashore.
Their movements were very synchronized but also very restrained. They didn't attack Su Han but instead moved toward the direction of the water waves, bowing their heads.
Su Han watched in surprise, even more certain that the creature approaching must be strong and likely a higher rank within its species.
"Roar"
With a terrifying roar, a massive figure appeared beneath the surface of the water.
The beast's pupils were orange-yellow, and its pitch-black pupils emitted a cold hue, captivating.
This was a terrifying Alien Giant Crocodile, with most of its body submerged in the water, but just the head that was exposed was several meters in size, possessing fierce backward-pointing horns, with red tips, and the exposed part of the head was covered with black scale armor, looking ferocious and emitting a terrifying aura.
There were also two Second Order Giant Crocodile Monsters in the water, each of their bodies bigger than the average Giant Crocodile Monster, with more pronounced scale armor and muscles.
"Roar"
The Crocodile Dragon Monster poked its head out, its breath firmly locked on the Scorpion Spider Demon.
If the Armored Crocodiles and the ordinary Giant Crocodile Monsters gathered here because of the scent of blood, the Crocodile Dragon Monster before them was entirely because a monster of the same level had appeared within its territorial range.
Su Han's eyes flickered slightly, instantly understanding the situation.
Since it felt threatened, that made things easier.
At the thought, the Scorpion Spider Demon stepped forward, its Wolf Fang Club enveloped in a red glow, and swept directly across the Armored Crocodiles and Giant Crocodile Monsters in front of him.
The terrifying attack suddenly fell, and those monsters didn't have a chance to evade, instantly smashed into meat pancakes.
This sudden action undoubtedly posed the greatest threat and provocation.
The Crocodile Dragon Monster in the water roared, and then all the Armored Crocodiles and Giant Crocodile Monsters immediately charged towards Su Han and his monsters.
Su Han smiled and then commanded the Alien Thorn Worms, the Bonestead Rat Demon, and the Scorpion Spider Demon to start slaughtering these Armored Crocodiles.
There were many Armored Crocodiles and Giant Crocodile Monsters, the former not less than four or five hundred and the latter also having dozens, charging mightily from the water in a formidable array.
But it was useless.
The gap in strength was too vast to be bridged by their numbers.
Even though several of the Giant Crocodile Monsters were of First Order Upper Grade strength, they were no match for the Bonestead Rat Demon and were easily dealt with a single punch.
The disparity in strength was glaring, especially on the side of the Scorpion Spider Demon. As the Wolf Fang Club swung, no monster could withstand its blows.
The deaths and injuries undoubtedly enraged the Crocodile Dragon Monster, and it suddenly opened its massive maw, a black current condensing within.
The Scorpion Spider Demon sensed the danger, and immediately part of its Floating Pagoda Black Armor flew up, forming a massive black shield in front of it.
No sooner had this been done than the black shockwave slammed into it.
Boom
A massive sound erupted, and the black shield was shattered by a third, the pieces fractured, not scattered.
To recover, it would need to rely on its Regenerative Ability.
'Such a powerful attack.'
Su Han's eyes gleamed, the stronger the Crocodile Dragon Monster's attack, the more excited he became because with the right handling, it could be his.
Retreat.
He first had the Scorpion Spider Demon gather the Coagulation Cannon and fired back at the Crocodile Dragon Monster, the blood ball impacting against it.
The Crocodile Dragon Monster submerged most of its body into the water, the blood ball exploded on the surface of the water, splashing waves several meters high, but the force was reduced, and it failed to harm the Crocodile Dragon Monster.
After just one strike, Su Han rapidly retreated with the Scorpion Spider Demon.
The Crocodile Dragon Monster, having seen its kin injured and also being attacked, was not about to let this group go.
Its massive body churned through the water, then swiftly charged onto the shore.
Its huge claws shattered the bank, leaving deep footprints, allowing Su Han to finally witness the full appearance of the Crocodile Dragon Monster.
The Crocodile Dragon had backward-pointing horns, a slightly short neck, but its body was exceptionally large, about ten meters tall and more than thirty meters long, even bigger than the Rat Queen from the other day.
Its body was covered with uneven black armor, thorns positioned at its joints, especially its four robust limbs that were even more sturdy and shaped like beastly feet with sharp claws, unlike a crocodile's.
As soon as it appeared, it immediately chased after the Scorpion Spider Demon, with icy beastly pupils full of rage. Beside it, the two Second Order Giant Crocodile Monsters also followed swiftly after Su Han.
The lower-ranked crocodile groups couldn't keep up, and after the heavy casualties just now, the Crocodile Dragon Monster knew these kin couldn't match the Scorpion Spider Demon.
So it resolved to tear these intruders to pieces itself.
In a chase and retreat, they had already moved hundreds of meters away from Nanwang Lake, arriving at one end of Nanwang Bridge on the street.
Su Han stopped, and the Scorpion Spider Demon turned around to confront the Crocodile Dragon Monster.
Although it was only a distance of a few hundred meters, the tremendous creature's speed was evidently not slow.
"Roar"
The Crocodile Dragon Monster didn't know that Su Han had only come here to lure it out of the water, interpreting the Scorpion Spider Demon's turning around as a challenge.
Thus, it charged ferociously, its massive claws swinging toward the Scorpion Spider Demon, black liquid flowing over them, forming sharp edges.
At that moment, the Scorpion Spider Demon's Regenerative Ability had quickly restored the Floating Pagoda Black Armor, covering its body in the black armor.
Enhanced by Vital Energy, red energy also swirled around its body and the Wolf Fang Club in its hand.
Without retreating, the Scorpion Spider Demon burst forth, slamming the huge Wolf Fang Club onto the Crocodile Dragon Monster's black claw.
It roared like thunder striking down a city street.
The immense strength of the two Third Order Monsters caused destruction far beyond that of ordinary bombs with just simple movements.
The impact was a stalemate.
Immediately following, the two colossal creatures began close-quarters combat, their large motions were terrifying.
Being the predominant aggressor, the Crocodile Dragon Monster attacked with Claw Strikes, charges, and bites, leveraging its horrific body to unleash especially terrifying power, outmatching the Scorpion Spider Demon by a margin.
The Scorpion Spider Demon, half-human, half-spider with four arms, mainly used strikes from the Wolf Fang Club, defense with the Floating Pagoda Black Armor, arm pounding, and Claw Strikes, its movements more agile.
Beneath the brawl of the two monsters, the entire street became a mess from the repercussions, the concrete pavement shattered, and nearby shops and buildings collapsed in heaps.
Both were wounded, but the Scorpion Spider Demon's Regenerative Ability gave it an edge in combat.
Two Second Order Low Grade Giant Crocodile Monsters arrived to assist, but an Alien Thorn Worm and a Bonestead Rat Demon caught them, one on each side.
The two guardian beasts clashed with the monsters. The Giant Crocodile Monsters, true to their crocodilian nature, boasted strong defenses and immense strength.
One completely overpowered the Alien Thorn Worm, trying constantly to engage in close combat. However, the Thorn Worm was quicker and continually stabbed at it, hitting the Giant Crocodile Monster's body.
On the other side, the clash of strength between the Giant Crocodile Monster and the Bonestead Rat Demon was entirely different.
The Bonestead Rat Demon's strength and defense far surpassed that of the Giant Crocodile Monster. Just at their first engagement, a fist armed with bone spurs smashed into the Giant Crocodile Monster's body, shattering bones.
The Bonestead Rat Demon then grabbed the Giant Crocodile Monster's head, gripping the upper and lower jaws before tearing it apart, splitting the head in two.
"Roar"
Seeing its subordinate killed, the Crocodile Dragon Monster roared angrily, its huge maw opening as black water gathered within, preparing to strike at the Bonestead Rat Demon.
Crimson Demon Eye!
The Scorpion Spider Demon wouldn't let the Crocodile Dragon Monster attack its guardian beast at such a time. The Crimson Demon Eye moved into its palm, the palms aiming at the Crocodile Dragon Monster, firing a red light.
Under the Mental Shock, the Crocodile Dragon Monster contorted in agony as a powerful blast of black water hit the buildings beside the street.
The blast roared, dust rising, and the two-story building was directly reduced to rubble.
The Scorpion Spider Demon charged forward, smashing the Wolf Fang Club onto the Crocodile Dragon Monster's head.
Wrapped in Blood Qi Energy, the attack was potent and heavy, shattering many of the Crocodile Dragon Monster's fierce horns.
The Crocodile Dragon Monster fiercely turned and slammed into the Scorpion Spider Demon, but the next moment, it was blocked by the Scorpion Spider Demon's two large hands holding its upper and lower jaws.
"Plunk"
Meanwhile, the other Second Order Giant Crocodile Monster had been caught by the Alien Thorn Worm.
Sharp stabs pierced directly through the eyes and into the brain, killing the Giant Crocodile Monster.
Suddenly, the Crocodile Dragon Monster thought about retreating.
The Scorpion Spider Demon was stronger by a margin, and if it dragged on, it might be the one to die.
It charged at the Scorpion Spider Demon, then abruptly turned and rushed toward Nanwang Lake; once it entered the lake, no one could bother it.
"Think you can run?"
Upon seeing this, Su Han laughed, and suddenly the surrounding fog violently dispersed, countless vines burst out of the ground, surging like waves.
On the vines, numerous Sound Wave Tree Fruits condensed and were thrown at the Crocodile Dragon Monster, numbering over a hundred.
The Crocodile Dragon Monster realized the danger and tried to hasten back to Nanwang Lake, but as it just lifted its foot, it found itself entangled by the vines.
Breaking free would take time, but the hundreds of red fruits had already landed around it.
Boom, boom, boom
The explosions nearly merged into a single loud burst, strong shockwaves sweeping across the street.
Luckily the Crocodile Dragon Monster had run fast, now two to three hundred meters from Su Han and the others; this shrill noise was slightly lessened.
But the Crocodile Dragon Monster at the center of the explosion suffered greatly, its scale armor shattered, its head as if crushed by something heavy, in agonizing pain, blood stained everywhere on its body.
The Scorpion Spider Demon leaped onto the Crocodile Dragon Monster, Blood Qi Energy enveloping the Wolf Fang Club, which under Metal Control had morphed into a large sword.
"Plunk"
A satisfyingly crisp sound as the sword pierced through the broken shell into the Crocodile Dragon Monster's head, and the Scorpion Spider Demon, gripping the sword, stirred it, mashing its brain thoroughly and killing it outright.
