Not being able to save the lizardman really made Sofia angry.

It wasn’t because she couldn’t save the life of the lizardman, but because she was upset that she could only help Otto a little bit.

If she couldn’t do it and had to let Otto take action, what was the point of her being here?

Like a small magical turret, a series of Wind Blades crazily swept toward the Six-headed Serpent Lizard.

However, this Six-headed Serpent Lizard was much more powerful than the previous two Three-headed Serpent Lizards. It wasn’t just because it had grown three more heads, but also because its scale armor was much thicker, making it harder to break.

Wind Blades, which had been unstoppable before, were not very effective now. A single Wind Blade could only slightly pierce through the monster’s scales.

To cut off its head, at least three Wind Blades needed to hit the same spot simultaneously.

But that was not easy, even though Sofia’s magic talent was strong.

With great effort, Sofia had managed to cut off one head, but before she could cut off another, a new head had already grown back in the original position, making her efforts rather useless.

Saru observed the performance of the half-elf girl and felt a bit concerned. He knew the direction of his future mentoring.

He had already taught Sofia magic skills and experience, but staying in control of her emotions at any time was also crucial.

Contrary to Sofia and Saru’s thoughts, Otto, upon seeing the aggressive regeneration of the powerful multi-headed giant, began to wonder if the creature could be artificially bred.

One head regrew immediately after being cut off – it would be hard to beat such meat production efficiency with ordinary livestock.

Sofia’s magic attacks were ineffective, so she tried to cut off the monster’s head while casting a Fireball skill to block its regeneration, but the results were still not great.

The burns caused by the Fireball could only slightly delay the Six-headed Serpent Lizard’s regrowth. After all, it was only a low-level spell, and this outcome was already at its limit.

In the end, Sofia’s attacks not only failed to achieve effective damage but also angered the Six-headed Serpent Lizard.

It roared and charged at Sofia, while the surrounding lizardmen, busy dealing with other multi-headed corpses, didn’t dare to intervene.

“If…if only I could learn more advanced spells…” Sofia sighed.

She looked at the formidable beast with regret, thinking of ways to counter it.

As her teacher, Saru didn’t use any spells to help at this moment because his intervention wouldn’t make much of a difference.

After all, Sofia’s mastery of spells had long surpassed her teacher, who only knew some low-level spells.

The situation was irreversible with Sofia alone. Otto gently nuzzled the sad little girl for comfort – it was time for him to step in.

The Six-headed Serpent Lizard had always relied on its colossal size to rampage through the swamp, but this time it had chosen the wrong opponent.

After a scream, the Serpent Lizard was toppled by Otto, its neck pierced by his sharp dragon horn. The intense pain made its other five heads encircle and bite Otto’s neck in retaliation.

But their fangs could barely penetrate Otto’s Stone-Iron Coating, let alone his thick scales.

Chuckling menacingly, Otto pinned the multi-headed monster’s crocodile-like body under his hind legs, preventing it from moving. He stretched out his claw, brutally tearing off one head, and then opened his mouth and scorched the wound with flames.

His breath had much more power than Sofia’s Fireball skill, making it impossible for the monster to regrow a new head within a short time.

At this point, the Six-headed Serpent Lizard only had four heads left to attack, but no matter how hard it tried, it could not cause any effective damage to Otto.

Furthermore, since its body was pinned down by Otto, escape was impossible. The Six-headed Serpent Lizard helplessly watched as Otto tore off its remaining heads one by one, until it breathed its last.

The lizardmen took over the corpse of the Six-headed Serpent Lizard. Because its scale armor was thicker, it took more time to separate the meat.

Saru had to call for reinforcements from the clan, but this was already the limit – there were no more available lizardmen in the clan.

For a time, the periphery of the swamp had become lively.

Sofia looked somewhat dispirited, while Saru, slightly worried, suggested to Otto, “Your Majesty, why don’t we put our operation on hold for now…”

Otto laughed, “Don’t worry, Saru. Sofia is not as fragile as you think.”

Despite Otto’s constant care, Sofia had never been a pampered child. The experiences she had endured were probably more than what many people would face in their lifetime.

Walking over to Sofia, Otto gently nuzzled her cheek and whispered, “It’s up to you now…”

In the distance, a Three-headed Serpent Lizard, guided by the lizardmen’s bait, ran towards them.

What Sofia needed was not consolation, but affirmation. She didn’t want to stay under Otto’s protection forever; she wanted to be able to help him as well.

Wiping away the tears at the corner of her eyes, the little girl raised her ragged magic wand high, quickly gathering the magic elements in front of her. Then, a series of Wind Blades rushed toward the Three-headed Serpent Lizard that had just entered the range of attack.

The operation went smoothly, and soon nine multi-headed giant lizards were dealt with, including six with three heads.

Five of them were eliminated by Sofia, while the remaining one was taken care of by Saru, who felt rather itch-handed.

The old lizardman was inferior to Sofia in both magical power and casting speed, so it took a lot of time for him to kill the monster, relying on his excellent combat experience.

The other four were vicious creatures with six heads, dealt with by Otto himself. No new multi-headed Serpent Lizards were lured into the area, seemingly indicating that the swamp had been cleaned up.

However, Saru detected something wrong. Several lizardmen from the bait guiding team hadn’t come back, and the two lizardmen sent later to search for them were also missing.

Just when Saru was considering whether to go search personally, one lizardman finally returned.

Upon recognizing the returnee as one of the two lizardmen he had sent out, Saru knew that he was back, but his condition was not good.

His mouth was foaming, and his body was weak. His yellow-orange crest had turned even greener than the scales on his body, all signs pointing to the fact that he had been poisoned.
