Struggle in the Steam Age

Facing the kobold leader who was waving his paws indiscriminately, Lawrence took a decisive step forward and turned around to face the kobold's back. Then, while pulling out another pistol, he cast magic with his right hand, bowed left and right, and shot the bullets and the magic missiles formed by [Missile Storm] towards the kobold's popliteal socket behind his left knee.

This part of the kobold leader has only a layer of tough skin for easy movement, and there are no scales as hard as steel on other parts of the body. So in Lawrence's continuous attacks, the magic and bullets easily tore away this layer of tough skin like leather armor, and then further cut the muscles and shattered the bones.

With a scream, the kobold leader immediately lost his balance and fell to the ground. Lawrence saw that its left leg had been nearly broken, leaving only a bit of skin on the knee where it joined the thigh and calf. The bloody wound and the white stubble made Lawrence feel pain even looking at it.

The kobold leader seemed to have completely collapsed, just rolling all over the ground with his claws holding the wound, while screaming incessantly.

Although he didn't understand why this menacing-looking kobold leader lost his size in one fell swoop, Lawrence also knew that now was not the time to think about these issues. Taking advantage of the fact that the opponent seemed to have lost all counterattack power, he released [Missile Storm] again to hit the kobold leader's exposed face.

In an instant, the kobold's face was punched with five or six bloody cuts of different sizes, but because the kobold leader closed his eyes and turned his head slightly when he found Lawrence raised his fingertips, the previous The magic missile only knocked off some of the kobold's teeth and scales, and did not cause any fatal damage to it, which had strong defense capabilities.

The kobold leader was in a state of confusion due to continuous blows in just a few seconds. Seeing this, Lawrence picked up a lever rifle that had been thrown on the ground by someone before and started shooting at the kobold's face. stand up.

Although these ordinary bullets cannot penetrate the kobold's scales, these bullets can force it to keep its eyelids closed to protect its eyes. At the same time, the bullets constantly hitting the face successfully distracted the kobold, making it impossible to release any spells under such interference.

Under high-intensity shooting, the nine bullets in the magazine were consumed in just a few seconds. Seeing this, Lawrence immediately threw the gun aside to pick up another gun.

But as soon as Lawrence bent down, he saw the kobold leader from his side kicking the ground to make the same movement as before, while slightly raising his right paw to point at Lawrence.

Seeing this scene, Lawrence felt the hairs all over his body stand on end, and he jumped to the side without hesitation. Just as he left his original position, a cone of flames flew out of the kobold leader's claws, scraped Lawrence's body and flew into the air. The flame was so close to it that he could faintly smell the burnt smell of his hair.

At this time, Lawrence couldn't care about his hair and possibly burned skin. He seized the opportunity to raise the revolver he picked up just now and pulled the trigger, directly smashing the open left eye of the kobold leader. A bloody hole.

"I want to treat you as breakfast, breakfast for the whole week." After finding out that the well-prepared sneak attack missed one hit and caused him to lose an eye, the kobold leader immediately roared loudly. At the same time, he propped up his body with one arm and released [Fireball] at Lawrence, forcing Lawrence to dodge around in embarrassment.

"Run, run—" Seeing Lawrence dodging in embarrassment, the kobold leader barked and laughed, as if releasing all the depression accumulated in his heart just now.

It had always believed that no one could resist its soul impact after it gained power from a great existence, and its performance in a series of battles that unified all the kobolds also proved this. But what I didn't expect was that today's attack actually ran into a human being who was not afraid of the impact of his own soul.

This exception so disrupted the kobold leader's rhythm that it lost a leg and an eye in the brief and unexpected battle. So when it regained the advantage, it couldn't help but mocked Lawrence, in order to vent the fear and anxiety in its heart when it was at a disadvantage.

But it only saw Lawrence wandering around, rolling on the ground from time to time, looking extremely embarrassed. But he didn't notice that Lawrence was leading the battlefield to the open space in front of the parapet.

"Do you think you can't do anything if you escape?" Seeing Lawrence crossing the parapet and using the parapet to block his vision, the kobold leader laughed instead of anger. It directly used its tail to turn itself over and lay on the ground, and then used its intact three limbs to cooperate with the tail to crawl like a wild beast, like the place Lawrence left just now.

"It's now." When the kobold leader leaped over the parapet with both arms and rushed towards him, Lawrence reminded himself in his heart, and then bent slightly to stare at the kobold leader roaring all the way.

Looking at Lawrence, who was looking at him with a bayonet in his hand, the kobold leader who had just climbed over the parapet was still slightly twitching the corners of his mouth that kept bleeding, showing a cruel smile.

"Human, I'm going to eat you little by little." The kobold leader roared when he was charging. From the fight just now, he could tell that Lawrence was a spellcaster like himself. The gun shoots. So now the way Lawrence is standing on the flat ground and holding the dagger makes him think that Lawrence has lost the ability to cast spells and cannot escape, so he just tried to fight for his life.

However, the damage the kobold leader received before still greatly affected its ability to move, although it relied on the kobold's unique recovery ability and magic power to seal the wound so that the wound would no longer bleed. But before its own magic backlash caused soul trauma and the scars left by Lawrence on him all erupted, it still slowed down a lot compared to before.

Facing the ferocious-looking kobold leader rushing forward, Lawrence flashed to the right as the opponent approached. Almost at the same time, a fireball flew out from the kobold leader's fingertips and hit the position where he was just now. A pit the size of a washbasin was blasted on the ground.

The kobold leader relaxed his tail immediately after realizing that he missed a hit, and swung his left paw violently to grab Lawrence from top to bottom with the momentum of his whole body falling to the right, trying to open him up.

But this blow full of anger was completely missed, and Lawrence disappeared directly from its sight. Just when it was in a daze, it suddenly felt as if someone was approaching from the left.

The kobold leader immediately roared and twisted his neck, trying to find the trace of Lawrence with his good right eye, but he didn't expect an iron bump the size of a fist to fly into its wide-open mouth. With a roar, it fell into darkness forever.

At the moment when the kobold leader swung his paw suddenly, Lawrence took a small step forward to hide his figure through the blind spot after the loss of his left eye, and then caught the kobold turning his head to find his own opportunity to escape by running away. Posture cover The enchanted grenade he took from Zhu Yan's belt was thrown into its big mouth, and then he took a step forward and fell down.

With a bang explosion, the head of the kobold leader was blown up with a lot of soil and stones, and then fell down crackling under the action of gravity. After everything subsided, Lawrence patted the dust off his body and stood up. What appeared in his eyes was a headless giant kobold corpse lying on the ground.
