Hollow Knight: Hallownest

Chapter 279 Battle Cry

The numerous mushroom caps on the Mushroom King's head all turned into lively eyeballs in Mo Rong's mind at this moment, and each of them stared straight at him. No matter where he wanted to go or what strategy he used, it seemed that they would all be broken and vanish under their gaze.

Mo Rong's brain was working rapidly at this moment, digging out the memory of the battle in the guard selection competition long ago.

At that time, he was using the rolling force of the mushrooms to chop down continuously. Even if they were telepathically connected, they would not be able to resist this tactic. But if he used that tactic in this place, the effect would probably be far less than in the selection competition, and it might even have the opposite effect.

After all, there are more than ten pairs of eyes staring at him now.

"It's really difficult..."

The thoughts that had arisen in Morron's mind regarding Quirrel's skills during his earlier battle with Umu were now heightened.

How could I have forgotten about this in the first place!

Since Quirrel's skills can easily split the outer membrane of Umu, the effect against the pink mushroom will probably be no less, so there is no need to worry so much now.

He shifted his gaze away from the Mushroom King and began to focus on the large number of Mushroom Warriors and Mushroom Giants.

If the big problem cannot be solved for the time being, start with the small one first!

The bone nails cannot cause effective damage to the Mushroom King but that does not mean that the spells are useless. Even if the thoughts are connected, the Mushroom King cannot get rid of the heaviness of his body. For the spells that are almost impossible to defend against and extremely fast, it can only take it head-on.

Mo Rong nodded secretly. The correctness of his idea was beyond doubt. The difficulty now shifted from how to cause damage to the Mushroom King to how to avoid the organized attack of a large group of mushrooms.

During this period of thinking, even though he was thinking about many things, his steps did not stop at all.

The Mushroom Warrior's rolling and the Mushroom Monster's spitting work together, and even if you relax for a moment, you will get hurt.

After thinking for a moment, he decided to use the attack method he used in the trials.

If you master one method, you will master all methods. Although we are outnumbered by the enemy, the essence of the attack has not changed much. Different paths lead to the same destination. Maybe we can find a new way out by constantly attacking.

Seeing another group of mushroom warriors rolling over, Mo Rong prepared himself, picked up the bone nails and jumped up, hitting them one by one with great excitement.

“Woo-hoo—”

The groans of pain from being hit continued to sound from under him, interweaving beside different mushroom warriors.

Seeing this, the other mushroom warriors all showed a trace of pain in their eyes and organized the next wave of attack.

Perhaps due to his increased combat experience, Mo Rong's downward strike was now extremely handy. Just as he had expected, he found a breathing space in the battle.

In the next wave of attack, he did the same thing, and most of the pressure that the Mushroom King had just put on him was relieved, causing him to smile slightly.

In just a short while, he also discovered why the pressure suddenly decreased.

The point is not that he used the mushroom warriors' attacks to rest, but that the mushroom monsters' attack frequency was much lower.

The venom that was sprayed like a volley of cannonballs before was now just a wave of two or three dots coming towards him, and the size of the venom had shrunk a lot.

Obviously, because of the sharing of spirit, the mushroom giant also felt the pain of the mushroom warriors. Because it was always moving above them, the venom attack was likely to further increase the damage to the mushroom warriors, causing them to be timid.

Why do I feel like I'm emitting a despicable aura?

Mo Rong shook off the strange thoughts that arose in his mind and once again fixed his gaze on the Mushroom King in the distance.

The attack just now had accumulated enough spiritual power in his body to enable him to cast a spell.

Without hesitation, a Shadow Soul rushed straight towards the Mushroom King.

The latter sensed a powerful breath coming towards him, and immediately repeated the same trick, shrinking his body back under the mushroom umbrella. The color of the mushroom in the corresponding position also turned light pink.

This was not the end yet. The mushroom giants seemed to want to protect their leader, or as if they had received some instructions, they took clumsy steps and walked to the front of the Mushroom King. This scene made Mo Rong quite happy.

It's comfortable and kills two birds with one stone.

You have to know that the power of the Shadow Soul will not be reduced due to the number of times it passes through. This one pass can save you a lot of effort in subsequent battles.

Bang bang bang——!

Several consecutive muffled sounds came from not far away. At this time, the already painful expressions of the mushroom warriors looked even more hideous, and they wailed loudly.

The Shadow Soul hit the pink mushroom cap and passed through it as if it were nothing. After entering the Mushroom King's body, it flew away from behind it and disappeared into the distance.

It won't keep flying in the God's Residence... Mo Rong looked at the slowly rising mushroom umbrella and clearly felt a surge of anger on the face of the Mushroom King below it.

“Luluwu——!”

A powerful and heavy war cry spread from its mouth across the battlefield and spread to every member of the mushroom tribe.

The wailing of the mushroom warriors came to an abrupt end, and the painful expressions on the faces of the mushroom monsters also disappeared in an instant. They opened their mouths and responded in unison:

“Luluwu——!”

The loud sound of the body colliding with the floor continued to be heard. Mo Rong's face darkened slightly and he jumped up again.

Although he didn't know what the war cry just now meant, he could more or less sense the change in the situation.

Be careful.

He chopped down again and hit the many mushroom warriors rolling under him. Mo Rong looked down carefully, afraid that one of them would suddenly jump up and hit him.

In the game, the Mushroom Warrior has two ways of attack. In addition to this ground rolling, there is also a jumping roll. Although it can only jump at the beginning, it is hard to say whether the current situation will change.

Hei Chong was always ready. He stared at the ground below. He swung the bone nail nearly ten times without any change, which made him confused for a moment.

Could it be that the Mushroom King’s battle cry just now was just an act?

Or maybe the wailing sound is more special...

Just as he had this thought, a strong wind suddenly came towards him from above his head. With his keen perception and constant vigilance, it was not difficult for him to dodge this sudden attack.

“Woohoo!”

The wailing sounded again, and this time, the first fallen mushroom warrior finally appeared on the battlefield.

It was killed by the venom that just tried to attack Mo Rong, even though it had already been seriously injured by the latter.

At the moment when the mushroom warrior died, the other mushroom warriors in the same group seemed to sense something and made loud tearing sounds.

“Woohoo!”

Mo Rong's expression froze, and a chill ran down his back. He quickly turned around and looked up into the air, his pupils suddenly contracting.

Balls of golden venom scattered in the air and came towards him like a rainstorm!
