Hollow Knight: Hallownest

Chapter 93 Elder Badr

After Johnny's injury was relieved, Mo Rong laid him flat on the ground aside and turned to look behind Kui Ruo.

"Quirro, watch your back!"

The strong wind blew towards him. Without any hesitation, Kui Ruo lifted up the bone nail in front of him, and his legs suddenly exerted force and somersaulted backwards.

His life was hanging by a thread. The bone nail actually brushed against Kui Ruo's back. If it had been even half an inch higher, it would have penetrated his body.

"Ahem! This... why is there still one?!"

Kui Ruo took two breaths and looked at the two bone nails flying in the air with a puzzled expression. Mo Rong came to him and unfolded his shield, shouting into the darkness ahead:

"What kind of rat are you! Hiding your head and showing your tail to hurt people with hidden nails?!"

Before the sound could reach far, a red figure appeared in front of the two of them in the darkness, and his words were as sharp as bone nails.

"Hmph! You are so arrogant even though you have some strength! Die!"

The two bone nails twisted his body again and struck Mo Kui again with the momentum of a swimming dragon.

"As expected, it's you, Ze Ruo!"

When the first bone nail appeared out of thin air to attack Quiruo, he had already roughly guessed the person who was coming. When the two bone nails appeared at the same time and the man's figure was exposed in the shadows, he was sure of the person coming. It's Zeruo.

After dodging to avoid it, Mo Rong gathered his momentum and attacked with a lunge. He sprinted and slashed before reaching Ze Ruo in just a moment.

The cloak behind him was seen dancing, and the next moment he was in the air to avoid Mo Rong's attack.

"Have you ever heard of my name?"

When Mo Rong saw that there was something similar to a moth-wing cloak behind him, and it could also help him fly, he felt bad for a moment and retreated to Kui Ruo's side.

"Why did you kill innocent people indiscriminately?"

Mo Rong frowned and pointed at Ze Ruo in the air as he split open the bone nail that was struck from the side.

"There has never been an innocent soul under my bone nails! If you dare to protect heretics, you two will be buried here today!"

Seeing that the two bone nails still couldn't do anything to the two of them, Zeruo exuded more momentum and took out the third bone nail and threw it at them.

A new bone nail came, and Mo Rong secretly thought it was not good, and quickly said to Kui Ruo beside him:

"Quirro! You carry Johnny and evacuate downwards! We can't fight him here!"

After hearing this, Quiro didn't hesitate at all. He put aside the bone nails in front of him and ran towards Johnny. He kept using whirlwind slashes behind him to cover his evacuation.

"Is this guy so outrageous?"

Mo Rong's expression was solemn. Zeruo's current attack was very different from that in the game. The three bone nails would not attack one by one, but in a combined attack, killing him until he was too tired to deal with it. More importantly, he guessed that If it works well, this is not his full strength. Zeruo should have a fourth bone nail!

They were located on the border of Whistling Cliffs, with a wide view, but it also caused a lot of trouble for him in the battle. It was still the same problem that had not changed for a long time, flying.

Zeruo, like Marcos before him, has extremely excellent long-range attacks, and can also use his flying advantage to distance himself, so what he has to do now is to reduce his advantage.

"Want to escape in front of me?"

Two of the three bone nails were separated and stabbed towards Kui Ruo's running figure. Mo Rong quickly dodged and struck, neutralizing Ze Ruo's bone nail attack.

"Quirro, jump down!"

After saying that, Mo Rong rushed towards Kui Ruo and jumped towards the bottom of the cliff.

Quiruo was caught off guard by this, but he still held Johnny tightly in his arms and fell downwards with his eyes closed.

who cares? Just believe him, Brother Mo Rong!

Mo Rong used a whirlwind chop in the air and adjusted his position directly below Kui Ruo. Seeing that the ground was getting closer, he quickly put on his strange elytra and started gliding.

The bodies of the three people suddenly stopped, and their speed finally slowed down, but it was not known whether it was because Mo Rong was carrying the two of them, so they landed much faster than before.

"puff!"

The moment he landed, Kui Ruo felt that he was about to be shaken to pieces, but he couldn't help but take more rest. The crystal heart in Mo Rong's body had already lit up, and the pink debris of the ore was scattered in the air together with the white matter on the ground, as if It rained cherry blossoms.

The next moment the group of people disappeared from the spot, three bone nails were pierced into the ground, and they trembled for a while before being pulled out.

"Hmph! Dare the Rats is how you introduced yourself, but if you think there is a way out by running away, you are naive!"

"That just changes your burial place!"

Zeruo's cloak puffed up behind him, and he jumped from the air without losing momentum, chasing after Mo Rong and others.

"Cough cough!"

Johnny in Quiruo's arms was awakened by the movement just now. He slowly opened his eyes, only to see the rapidly retreating stone wall.

"This? We escaped?"

She turned her head and looked at Kui Ruo, who was holding her, and Mo Rong, who was behind him. Only then did she realize what happened, and she couldn't help but said angrily to Mo Rong:

"You, why did you take away my life seed just now?"

Mo Rong didn't have time to deal with Qiao Ni at the moment. He put on the Flower of Ruins and rushed forward while looking back at the darkness behind him, for fear that the bone nails would fly out from it.

Kui Ruo was not angry at all when he saw Johnny like this. He was still nagging after being rescued. He was upset when he heard that. He lowered his brows and shouted:

"Shut your stinky mouth! If it weren't for my eldest brother, you would have died a long time ago! You were rescued and you are still chattering here. Believe it or not, I will throw you down!"

Until now, Mo Rong had never seen Kui Ruo angry. He was usually a very amiable guy, but it was really effective when he got angry. Anyway, after Johnny was scolded by him, he stopped talking and just lowered his head and muttered something alone.

"We're here! Quello, put down Johnny and come help me!"

The pink light behind Mo Rong disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by a powerful chop on the gravel on the ground. With this blow, the gravel produced a stronger shock than elsewhere.

"This is?!"

Seeing this situation, Kui Ruo also understood what Mo Rong meant, and quickly pulled out the bone nail and chopped it down with him. As the power of the two of them was transmitted to the ground at the same time, the gravel collapsed, revealing a large hole as wide as one person.

"go!"

Before Johnny could react, he was dragged down by Mo Rong and fell into the cave. Kui Ruo followed closely behind him and inserted bone nails into the stone wall to slow down his fall.

As soon as the group of people stepped onto the ground, two spherical black shadows hit them.

Mo Rong's eyes lit up, he was in the right place!

The reason why he rushed here was because of the two huge bugs in front of him.

Elder Badr.

Time was tight and the task was heavy. He had to collect souls quickly. If Ze Ruo really chased him, he would be able to handle it.

"Quirro! Help me clean up these little bugs!"

After the words fell, Mo Rong ran towards the elder Bader on the side. After hearing this, Kui Ruo didn't realize what Mo Rong meant, but after seeing those spherical black shadows turned into insects after falling to the ground, he did Understand what Mo Rong means.

"give it to me!"

Elder Bader has a characteristic that Mo Rong likes very much, that is, once an enemy approaches, it will curl up and use its hard shell to resist external attacks.

But only on the physical level.

Mo Rong kept summoning the Dream Nail to strike at Elder Bader, his soul constantly filling himself, and soon he could no longer feel the changes in his body.

"Whoo~"

Mo Rong stepped back and stared closely at the hole above. It would have been better if Ze had not come. The two Badr elders in front of them did not pose a threat to them. They were afraid of being attacked during the process.

After a while, just when Mo Rong turned around and thought that Ze Ruo really wasn't chasing after him, three bone nails suddenly jumped out of the darkness and struck towards them.

"What the hell? Timing Man?!"
