When the Medusa's body slowly emerged from the swamp, Han Shuo finally discovered that the Medusa was even larger than he'd imagined. The Medusa's head was filled with little snakes that continuously extended and danced. Its snake-like lower limbs were as thick as water buckets, and its body was five or six meters long when fully extended.
"Everyone pay attention, I think the Medusa is planning on leaving the swamp to hunt." Through the observation of the original demons, Han Shuo clearly saw the Medusa's movements and immediately warned everyone.
"Bad guy, bad guy, big bad guy!" After Han Shuo's startled cry sounded, a shriek sounded from within his arms. The pure and beautiful female elf suddenly became violent and had a panicked expression on her face. Her little fists continuously pounded on Han Shuo's chest.
When he saw that the female elf had returned to normal, Han Shuo immediately let go of her and the Demonslayer Edge abruptly appeared in his hand. His eyes calmly scanned the surroundings, planning on finding a suitable place to deal with the Medusa.
"You, what are you doing?" The female elf was greatly startled and thought that Han Shuo wanted to silence her. She frantically retreated two steps and a magic staff suddenly appeared in her hand. She chanted an incantation and a sharp wind blade shot towards Han Shuo's head.
"Damnit, why are you attacking me?" Han Shuo immediately glared angrily at the elf after dodging the attack.
However, it looked like this female elf was even angrier than Han Shuo. She looked at Han Shuo with great enmity and snorted angrily, "What did you do to me just now?"
The hungry Medusa was obviously growing impatient when it saw that no prey had entered the swamp. Its enormous body quickly moved through the swamp and started approaching Han Shuo's group.
Han Shuo didn't have the time to tangle with this female elf at this moment. When he saw the female elf archer Nia walk over, Han Shuo abruptly beckoned her over and pointed at the female elf who didn't understand the situation. Han Shuo said, "You explain to her."
Han Shuo immediately left after he'd spoken and arrived next to Trunks, Aphrodite, and the others. He said urgently, "It looks like the Medusa can't endure its hunger and is trying to leave the swamp in search of prey. It's coming in this direction, everyone pay attention."
"You two mages leave quickly and stay on the large tree behind the trap. You two swordsmen split up and don't let the Medusa discover your tracks. Han, you and I will leave temporarily and we'll block off its path of retreat when the Medusa appears. The Medusa is very difficult to deal with in the swamp, but if it leaves the swamp, it may not be a match for my manticore in a one on one fight. Therefore, we have a great chance of killing it. The only thing we need to pay attention to is to not let it discover our tracks. Otherwise, it'll be very difficult for us to deal with it once it returns to the swamp. "Trunks suddenly called out loudly at this moment and quickly commanded everyone to get into position.
At such a critical moment, even the other adventurers who had originally harbored enmity towards Trunks didn't continue to say anything for the sake of the Medusa. They all nodded and began to move according to Trunks' instructions.
Han Shuo nodded towards Trunks and suddenly retreated, making a detour and leaving the path that the Medusa would definitely take. Through the observations of the original demons, Han Shuo's grasp of the overall situation was far greater than the others. The Medusa appeared to be quite cautious and didn't immediately leave the swamp after carefully coming ashore. Instead, it seemed to be thinking as it stayed by the side of the swamp.
The magical creatures that had just appeared had all been stripped of their valuables and their corpses thrown into the enormous trap that had been prepared beforehand. The Medusa's head spun a few times and her watery eyes appeared a bit confused. She didn't seem to understand why no one had approached after hearing the sound.
After a while, the Medusa finally left the swamp and walked towards the location where Aphrodite and the others were lying in ambush. Through the observations of the original demons, Han Shuo discovered that the elf, who'd been quite enraged just now, had finally calmed down after Nia's persuasion. He looked over with interest, and only retreated a bit unwillingly under Nia's repeated persuasions. However, he didn't want to stay too far away from them.
After leaving the swamp, the Medusa slowly advanced with a heart full of caution. Han Shuo and Trunks, who had just circled around, appeared at the edge of the swamp from another direction and completely blocked off the Medusa's path of retreat. Han Shuo and Trunks exchanged a knowing look and silently approached the Medusa from behind at the same time, ready to act at a moment's notice.
Finally, after the Medusa had left the swamp for a few dozen meters, its wriggling body suddenly neared the trap. The Medusa's body was long and slender, and when its upper body sensed the existence of the trap, it relied on the strength of its lower limbs to keep its slanted body from falling into the trap. Instead, it moved step by step towards the outside of the trap as its serpentine body twisted.
At this moment, water dragons and lightning suddenly appeared in the sky and crackled down towards the Medusa. Nia, who wasn't far in front, also drew her bow and fired. A few sharp arrows flew through the air, heading straight for the Medusa.
Gordon and the other two swordsmen on the side joined forces and chopped down a tree trunk that had been suspended high in the air. The thick tip of the tree trunk suddenly smashed towards the Medusa with a loud boom.
At this moment, the Medusa immediately realized that it had fallen into an ambush. Its lower limbs miraculously wrapped around a large tree next to it, and its body that had been about to fall into the trap suddenly leapt high into the air, landing back on flat ground with a bang.
The tree trunk that had been targeting the Medusa crashed down from where its neck had been resting in the air just as the Medusa had dodged. It crashed into the bottom of the trap with a loud boom.
Aphrodite's water dragon obviously didn't have the killing power it should have when it crashed into the Medusa's body. The Medusa shook its head and shook its tail, and the water dragon turned into a spray of water that filled the sky and scattered. It was the lightning strike that caused the Medusa to cry out mournfully in pain.
Only one of Nia's arrows had stuck into the Medusa's soft neck, but it had only sunk in a few inches and hadn't caused any fatal damage. The Medusa's body writhed violently, indicating that it hadn't been affected too much.
After the first wave of attacks had landed, the Medusa quickly turned around with a shake of its body. It didn't attempt to retaliate against those who had attacked it and crawled towards the swamp. It looked like it was planning on entering the swamp before making any further plans.
It was a pity that Han Shuo and Trunks had long since been prepared at this moment. Fierce milky white fighting aura and the deafening whistle of the Demonslayer Edge rang out, both targeting the Medusa. They suddenly appeared on the Medusa's neck and face.
The Medusa had been able to easily deal with the previous attacks, but Han Shuo and Trunks' attacks finally made the Medusa feel the threat of death. These two waves of attacks were ferocious and contained a domineering killing intent that caused the high level magical creature to burst forth with all of its energy.
Its enormous body suddenly became exceedingly nimble as the snake hair that filled the sky suddenly danced. Hundreds and thousands of little snakes danced wildly in the air, turning into a sky full of tentacles that obstructed Trunks and Han Shuo's attacks.
Trunks' milky white fighting aura and Han Shuo's Demonslayer Edge's attacks suddenly surged into the sky full of flying snakes. Bloody mist instantly scattered through the air, and chunks of blood from the little snakes were continuously thrown into the air, landing on the ground with a thud.
The two's attacks were blocked at the same time and were completely unable to approach the Medusa's vitals. The little snakes that had been chopped into pieces on the ground wriggled in Han Shuo and Trunks' direction, attempting to swallow Trunks and Han Shuo's bodies.
"Humph, you're courting death." Trunks snorted coldly as a longsword once again appeared in his hand. However, it wasn't the broadsword that had been chipped by the Demonslayer Edge the first time.
Trunks' entire body was wrapped in milky white light as sand and stones flew everywhere he passed. The little snakes that approached him all exploded as he swiftly rushed towards the Medusa. On the other side, a figure dashed out like lightning. The manticore that had long since been prepared rushed out and maintained the same speed as Trunks as he shot towards the Medusa.
Han Shuo remained where he was and didn't move. He instead closed his eyes and used all of his concentration to drive the Demonslayer Edge. The little snakes on the Medusa's head all screeched as they turned into a bloody dance that filled the sky. The indestructible Demonslayer Edge reaped the lives of the little snakes with its sharpness, instantly cutting off more than half of the Medusa's hair.
When the other adventurers in the distance saw that the Medusa's path of retreat had been blocked and that it was now heavily injured, they all surged out from the back. Even more attacks appeared after everyone's combined forces. Trunks and the manticore were even more ferocious as they stuck close to the Medusa. Trunks transformed into a ball of milky white light, sending the Medusa's flesh and blood flying with every twist and turn.
The manticore, which was also a high level magical beast, flew around the Medusa on the flat ground. Its claws were as sharp as knives and left deep wounds on the Medusa's body that were so deep that bones could be seen. When all of the little snakes on the Medusa's head had been chopped off by Han Shuo's Demonslayer Edge, the Medusa's resistance suddenly became quite powerless as its twisted body gradually became still.
