Legend of the Elven Investigator

Chapter 454 Old and Immortal



In this densely forested environment, the countless criss-crossing shadows are Geng Gui's best cover.

A shadow that perfectly blends with the environment shuttles back and forth, using the complex environment to cover up the slight changes in oneself.

Hiding in the shadows, Geng Gui silently attacked the Giant Pincer Mantis blocking the way.

With Geng Gui's stealth ability, even a super-sensing elf with a strong sense of power can hardly perceive the subtle malice.

Shuttle through the shadows, Geng Gui aimed at the weakness of this powerful enemy, planning to launch an attack from behind the giant pincer mantis.

No matter how strong the elves are, they will always panic for a while when faced with an attack from behind.

It's just that Geng Gui didn't expect that the sharp perception of this giant pincer mantis is almost abnormal. Whenever it completes its displacement and reaches the shadow behind it, the giant pincer mantis immediately vibrates its wings and adjusts its position.

Immediately afterwards, its red giant pincers swayed countless meteor-like vigor and light, and the bullet punches that were difficult to catch with the naked eye struck like a storm, forcing Geng Gui back.

It seems that it has a complete insight into Geng Gui's position and can reverse the disadvantage before the attack occurs.

How can this be?

It's not just Geng Gui who feels incredible, you must know that in this vast and incredible virgin forest, the complexity of the environment is beyond human power.

Every fallen dead tree, every shadow of a leaf that blocks the light, even the shadows of the Giant Pincer Mantis and the Flying Mantis themselves may hide Geng Gui.

Such a range is more than tens of thousands. How did it do it if it wanted to gain insight and find Geng Gui in these obstacles in almost an instant?
"This giant pincer mantis should be an old giant pincer mantis. You can see that its pincers are much bigger than ordinary giant pincer mantises."

Shinpei is also using keen eyesight to gain insight into the information of this giant pincer mantis that is not easy to mess with.

The giant pincer mantis family, their bodies will continue to grow with the passage of time.Even before they die, they are still developing.

Coupled with the dark red armor color of this giant pincer mantis, Shinpei concluded that this is an elderly giant pincer mantis.

"This is very strange. The Flying Mantis and Giant Pincer Mantis clans have an almost pathological challenge system. The young Flying Mantis will tirelessly challenge the strong in the clan. The winner can replace the loser. On the contrary, if they fail, they will be expelled from the clan to live alone."

For example, in the original book, the old flying mantis acting alone that Xiaozhi and others met in the Orange Islands was the loser who was defeated by the challenger and wandered outside.

"Unless... this giant pincer mantis, even though it is old, is still the strongest in the group, defeating all challengers, and firmly occupying the leader's throne!"

This is very unusual, insect elves are the fastest growing type of elves, even if the flying mantis is a type with a long lifespan, their lifespan is at most 20 years.

Aging is an unavoidable thing for any person or elf. In most cases, aging means the decline of strength.

After aging, the muscle strength decreases, the shell hardness decreases, the reaction speed is slow, and even the recovery and endurance will become worse and worse.

Even the energy level will gradually decline with aging.

"Geng Gui, don't hide. This old guy's perception of malice is stronger than expected. As long as you have a trace of malice in your heart and a desire to attack, it is impossible to avoid its perception!"

"Use ghost fire!"

Under the telepathic voice transmission, Geng Gui immediately changed his hiding posture and escaped from the shadow on the ground.

At the same time, two will-o'-the-wisps with faint rays of light emerged above its hands.

Against pure object attackers like the Giant Pincer Mantis, weakening with will-o'-the-wisps is naturally the most advantageous way to start.

Facing the ghostly will-o'-the-wisp, the Giant Pincer Mantis naturally realized the danger. Once this highly corrosive flame falls on itself, it may cause terrible damage.

Its steel armor can always show excellent defense in the face of physical blows, but only fire is the attack that the Giant Pincer Mantis fears the most.

However, the giant pincer mantis has been able to occupy the position of leader for so many years, so it naturally has its sophistication.

The wings on the back of the giant pincer mantis vibrated, and a cool wind suddenly blew up. Its dark red body quickly blended into it. Under the blowing of this air flow, the speed of the giant pincer mantis skyrocketed, and it easily avoided the two dangerous sparks.

Under the blowing of the wind, the Giant Pincer Mantis showed even more flexibility than the Flying Mantis. Its bulky carapace fluttered in the air, giving Shinpei an illusion of lightness.

"This giant pincer mantis is clearly a technician, but why is its body unexpectedly light?"

The unique move previously used by the giant pincer mantis was the steel-type advanced technique Bullet Fist, which was blasted out with a speed comparable to that of a bullet. With the blessing of the technician characteristic, the power of the bullet punch will also increase significantly.

It can be said that Bullet Fist is the most suitable trick for Giant Pincer Mantis, and only Giant Pincer Mantis who can use Bullet Punch is worthy of the name of Red Lightning.

Under the blowing of this downwind, the giant pincer mantis' dodging steps and movements became more agile, as if carrying some kind of artistic beauty, which made Geng Gui completely confused.

Faced with the Giant Pincer Mantis who sees and unleashes every move, Shinpei also feels more and more difficult.This old elf is really too steady.

He understood that the Giant Pincer Mantis was waiting for his Geng Gui to make a mistake first, and then launch a thunderous blow after discovering its weakness.

"Did you take such a cautious approach because of the decline in function due to aging? Then if that's the case, come on!"

After a long time, he couldn't help the giant pincer mantis, so Geng Gui took advantage of the situation and returned behind Zhenping, returning to the shadow to continue lurking.

It was originally an assassin-type elf who was good at raids and ambushes. Facing heavy armored fighters like the giant pincer mantis, it should have the upper hand, but it suffered a dark loss in the face of its experienced combat experience.

"Go ahead and blame...huh?"

Zhen Ping just planned to use the strange force to play, and the best way to break the impenetrable defense and dodge of the giant pincer mantis is to use the most powerful and violent attack to smash it!
Among the elves of Zhenping, the existence with the strongest offensive ability is undoubtedly the strange power.

What's more, the flame fist it is good at is the biggest nemesis of the giant pincer mantis.

However, the Gyarados shook its pokeball at a critical moment.

He felt the Gyarados' intentions. After gaining the power of super evolution, it was not reconciled to its position as a bench for thousands of years. Facing such a powerful enemy as the giant pincer mantis, it also became competitive.

We can't let all the scenery be taken away by the strange force. It was the first elf that Shinpei conquered through combat, but because of environmental problems, he rarely got the chance to fight.

In the heart of the Gyarados, he has been silently accumulating energy, wanting to compete with the monster for the position of the boss.

Now with the help of Mega Evolution, it's mission, it's time!
A smile appeared on the corner of Shinpei's mouth, and naturally he would not directly ignore the Gyarados' desire to challenge.

"Alright, let me see what the super-evolved power looks like!" Shinpei grabbed Gyarados' Poké Ball and threw it out in an instant.

"Go Gyarados!"
