Demon King: Hero, don’t run away!

Chapter 1180 - 1181: She's Here, Sis

The black claws touched the ground, and the stones that made up the road were instantly shattered by [Modesty]'s sharp claws, sending dirt and stone flying.

The Black Claw Clan form that [Modesty] transformed into had claws sharp enough to easily crush stones, but digging into soft sand was a completely different experience from digging into rocks.

Burrowing in this place undoubtedly would consume a lot of time.

"Here it comes, brother." Lang Yi exchanged places with [Modesty], as Lingshan was already prepared, "With your size, this move is more than fitting to deal with you. [Water Cage]!"

Piercing the ground with her long sword, Lingshan activated her skill.

A blue circle appeared beneath [Modesty]'s feet, countless splashes rose up quickly weaving together to form a water ball that enclosed [Modesty].

Before being engulfed by the water ball, [Modesty] took a deep breath and once again released magic power in an attempt to break the [Water Cage].

But the Water-dwelling Species have a natural affinity for water skills, and with this support, [Modesty] found it difficult to break free of this skill in a short time.

Accepting the realized fact that his position had been exchanged, [Modesty] quickly switched gears.

"Indeed, my earlier assessment was correct, the abilities of those present are too complex — absolutely not suited for prolonged combat."

[Modesty] knew he was outnumbered and further declined in willingness to fight.

He thought he could escape quickly, but ended up having his location switched; if his speed had been quicker when the sand first accumulated, would the result have been different?

No time for regret, captured by Lingshan's [Water Cage], Luo Hasta extended tentacles into the water ball, attacking him.

Crossing claws in front of his chest, [Modesty] defended against Luo Hasta's initial attack.

But this was only the beginning, countless tentacles sprouted from Luo Hasta, swiftly aiming at [Modesty].

With claws planted into the ground, [Modesty] unleashed the skill [Rock Formation Breakthrough].

Instantly, the ground beneath Lingshan and others trembled violently, countless stone pillars erupted from the earth.

Lingshan quickly cast a shield upon herself, but the relentless stone pillars easily shattered the shield.

Upon transforming forms, [Modesty] also rapidly changed attributes.

He lost the high defense of Gushan Kurala, but gained the high attack power and exclusive skills of the Black Claw Clan.

Interchanging shells swiftly, materializing magic power, Luo Luosi used a shell to protect the nearby [Island Drifting].

Seizing this rare opportunity, [Modesty]'s body underwent another transformation.

This Black Claw Clan did not master Gushan Kurala's [Quicksand] skill.

The Black Claw Clan subhumans specialize more in enhancing physical attributes, not particularly skilled in high-consumption magic.

Like the magical synergy before, only during transformations could it be utilized.

[Modesty] couldn't create deep pits or quicksand and found the escape speed by digging too slow.

Escaping blatantly would only get them filled with water, easily tracing the escape route.

Many people were bewildered by the sand pit, taken by surprise; this was the perfect moment to flee.

[Modesty] transformed while rushing towards Jiao Xi, who was providing buffs to those present.

[Modesty] considered taking hostages but recalled Kekarlos's words about Yang Yu being too cold-blooded, indifferent to the life and death of hostages; reconsidering, he dismissed the idea.

Threatening Yang Yu might yield no benefits and could give the mad Yang Yu an opportunity.

Yang Yu's resolute intent to keep him here was palpable.

Thus, [Modesty] decided not to expend effort capturing anyone alive.

Injuring or killing a few would ideally cause some tremble among others, easing the pressure to escape.

Launching sharp claws, Luo Luosi mobilized a shell to protect Jiao Xi at the last moment.

Lingshan swung her sword blade to cut through obstructive stone pillars, while most of Luo Hasta's body transformed into tentacles; his tentacles wrapped around stone pillars, his flexible body like that of a true octopus, swiftly navigating between the columns.

In an instant, Luo Hasta reached [Modesty], attempting another attack.

Unfortunately, [Modesty] transformed incredibly fast.

Pale purple hair fluttered in the wind, a black blindfold covered her face, delicately red lips were alluring, and a billowing purple-gold robe tightly enveloped the transformed woman's body, tracing the shape of the skin-tight leather suit underneath.

Now transformed into Pingru Kejie Wulais, the Deputy Leader of the S-Class adventure group [Sky-breaking Stone].

Raising her hand, scorching flames spewed forth from [Modesty]'s hand, colliding with Luo Hasta, inducing a series of explosions, blasting Luo Hasta several meters away.

"Luo Hasta!"

Though very worried, Lingshan kept wielding her sword, slashing towards [Modesty].

Raising her hand once more, [Modesty] pointed to mid-air, a scorching fire wall surged upwards, engulfing Lingshan.

Pingru Kejie Wulais was recognized as a fire magic prodigy; [Modesty] transformed into her could flexibly utilize every skill of Pingru, akin to having the actual Pingru here.

However, such powerful abilities weren't easily obtained.

After undergoing three full transformations, [Modesty] grasped and recorded Pingru's characteristic magic power completely, able to produce the magic to become Pingru.

[Modesty] had the skill to transform into much stronger individuals, yet not everyone wanted to sit and hear Song Yang's stories, allowing the collection of characteristic magic power.

Moreover, the stronger the individual, the harder it became for [Modesty] to self-produce the magic power, often failing multiple times before successfully transforming into someone else.

Due to frequent undercover tasks by the Curse Sect, requiring self-transformation into high-level battle prowess was rare; [Modesty] wasn't too concerned about obtaining stronger forms either.

Besides, during transformation cooldown, reason would be lost, unable to manipulate oneself to produce recorded characteristic magic power without relying on [Song Yang] to complete transformations, chosen primarily by [Song Yang].

Switching form combat like now was an exception among exceptions.

Typically, the current transformation library sufficed, yet now....

Surrounded by streams of water, Lingshan surged from the fire wall, a blue light emanating from the sword blade, slashing towards [Modesty].

Honestly wishing she had acquired some immensely powerful forms earlier.

Then she could single-handedly destroy everyone here, wrapping things up once and for all.

But she knew it was just dreaming.

There were so many desired abilities, yet how could she collect them all? Even if collected, when would she use them?

Rather than fretting over the forms not acquired, better to ponder on effectively using current powers to escape!
