Chapter 133 Strange Monster Beast
Chapter 133 The strange monster beast
But unexpectedly, except for a large charred ball with the right eye as the center, the "Demon Crocodile" did not suffer any damage at all. Instead, taking advantage of the moment when I was stunned, another python condensed from the pool water rushed towards me.
I quickly dodged and started moving again. However, this time I didn't dare to use the "Star Dragon Arrow" to greet this guy, just using the "alloy arrow". But obviously, a simple physical attack has no effect on this python composed entirely of water. After the "alloy arrow" passes through its body, the surrounding pool water will naturally be replenished. According to the other party's slight losses, it will probably take several hours to solve this guy.
As a last resort, I drew out a "Fire Dragon Arrow", but this time it was just a yellow-level one. The "Fire Dragon Arrow" injected with "fire mana" collided fiercely with the aquarium and offset each other. This was the result of me inputting almost half of the "Fire Mana". It is really hard to imagine that such a python composed of pool water and water mana that looks inconspicuous is so difficult to deal with. If this continues, will my "Fire Dragon Arrow" not be consumed?
Thinking of this, I accelerated the attack speed and could not allow this hateful "demon crocodile" to issue spells again. As I continued to run, countless "alloy arrows" flew towards the "demon crocodile", but it did not have any effect except for the pleasant sound of Ding Dangdang.
I was so angry that there was no such powerful monster to defend against? The previous "Bul Demon King" was also injured under the "Fire Dragon Arrow", but this guy was fine, nothing happened at all. Listening to the sound of Ding Dingdang, I had to doubt whether this guy was from the water or gold? Or did this guy have two attributes?
When I thought of this possibility, my mind lit up. Maybe this possibility is really great. All the monsters I encountered have been single-attributed, except for the previous "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf". Even the "Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf" showed their attributes clearly and people could tell at a glance. But now the "Demon Crocodile" is simply a powerful defensive fortress.
However, I also noticed a word "demon" in the name of "demon crocodile". What is the concept of "demon"? In my understanding, it is the kind of more powerful and special skills, and the current "demon crocodile" just confirms this. But understanding this does not bring any benefits to my battle.
The "Demon Crocodile" who was attacked one after another began to become impatient. After seeing that the long-term attack was ineffective against it, the "Demon Crocodile" roared on the ground of fire. Just when I thought the opportunity could come, I was shocked to find that a fiery red sphere spit out from the mouth of the "Demon Crocodile". Just looking at the color, I knew that this should be fire attributed.
Fire attribute? My head became bigger again. With the previous water system and the suspected gold system, now this "demon crocodile" has three attributes. I really don't know what surprise this guy will bring to me in the next time.
I gathered my mind and stared at the fiery red sphere that I judged as the inner alchemy, but found that there was a green core inside the fiery red sphere. I was very familiar with that green because it was the inner alchemy color of the "Wood Demon King" I had taken before. Could it be that the core similar to the inner alchemy of the wood-type system gave birth to powerful fire-type energy, making the inner alchemy that was originally a wood-type system appear in a fire-type state?
I was completely confused about this. But what I know is that the power of the fire energy generated by the inner alchemy of the wood is definitely not something I can resist now. Perhaps even wearing the "Fire Dragon Armor" would be useless. I shot a fierce arrow at the mouth of the crocodile that was still growing in the "Demon Crocodile", but the result was torn and shattered by the fiery red sphere as I expected.
Seeing this situation, I immediately started to retreat. At the same time, the fiery red sphere seemed to have absorbed enough energy. After wandering around for a few rounds, it turned around and chased me towards the direction I ran away. Fortunately, the speed was absolutely impossible to compare with the previous aquarium python. So after I ran out of the round platform, the fiery red sphere had to be taken back. At the same time, the "Demon Crocodile" lazily lay on the edge of the pool after gnawing some "dustless grass" around the pool, and fell asleep, which made me feel very depressed when I quietly turned back to see this situation.
I really didn't expect that I would have been so disappointed. What's even more annoying is that the reason for the defeat is not the opponent's powerful combat power, but the opponent's strange attributes. As far as we know now are all the five elements attributes except the earth system. Perhaps, next time, this guy may show his earth system mana.
I slowly retreated back to the edge of the round platform and began to think about how to solve the problem of the "Demon Crocodile". In fact, the "Dragon Cluster" is definitely a feasible method. Although the "** array" does not work for this guy, the "Dragon Cluster" that can even be trapped by "Asian Qinglong" can also trap this "Demon Crocodile".
However, I don’t want to use the formation just like this, because I don’t understand one problem, that is, the feeling of vomiting before the appearance of the “Demon Crocodile”. Of course, I already know that I was not poisoned at that time, so where does this uncomfortable feeling come from? The first thing that can be ruled out is the “Demon Crocodile” itself. Because this guy didn’t get out of the pool at that time, it was impossible to add this feeling to me.
Since that's the case, it's certain that there are other monsters or herbs that are causing trouble. In terms of herbs, after my thoughts, it can be ruled out because although there are many Chinese medicinal materials close to "Dirty-free Grass", those medicinal materials are of ordinary types and will not cause the above situation at all.
In this way, the only thing left is other monsters. Other monsters? I had to turn my eyes on the fat and cute monster "Beta" who looks like a trek bear. I just mentioned that although the monster "Beta" is of high level, it has no great aggression. It can only make a "sound" similar to bat ultrasound, which can stimulate human ears to make it temporarily unable to hear the sound.
When thinking about the characteristics of ultrasound, it seems that one of them is dizzy; perhaps it was the sound of this monster that made me vomit, or perhaps it was the "sound" of this monster that reminded the arrival of the "Demon Crocodile" enemy, which made the smooth collection of "Dust Grass" process that had to be interrupted.
Looking at the cute "Beta", this idea is getting stronger and stronger, and at the same time, I have retold memories from high school. I remember that in a biology class in high school, the teacher talked about the example of mutual cooperation between creatures, whether it is "symbiosis" or something. Anyway, the two creatures provide their own needs to survive better in nature, and there is one reminder of the arrival of the partners and the enemy.
Perhaps, this "Beta" is the collaborator of "Demon Crocodile". "Beta" provides enemy information for "Demon Crocodile", so what does "Demon Crocodile" provide for "Beta"? I think the most important thing is safety. Although "Beta" can make people deaf, it is still very simple for ordinary players to deal with "Beta" that has no attack power. Then, "Demon Crocodile" is particularly important at this time.
However, compared to dealing with the "Demon Crocodile" that cannot enter the oil and salt, it is much easier to deal with the "Beta". I looked at the "Beta" on the trees. There were eight people on the entire round platform, located in the southeast, northwest and opposite directions, completely protecting the pool in the middle. No matter which direction the player enters the round platform, they cannot escape the sight of these "Betas", giving them enough time to awaken the sleeping "Demon Crocodile" and let him protect himself or remind him to prevent the enemy from stealing "Cold-free Grass" or against the "Demon Crocodile" itself.
At this point, I have figured out the general idea. However, I still need to check whether this is correct. The simplest thing is to clean those eight "betas". Anyway, it doesn't matter much.
I drew out an "alloy arrow" and put it on the "Sun Shooting Bow", slowly pulled a full moon. With Beta's defenselessness, I shot it down the tree with one arrow. Because it passed directly from Beta's throat, the death of this Beta did not alarm any other "Beta", let alone the "Demon Crocodile" far away a hundred meters away. After shooting five "Beta" in a deliberate manner, my assassination was finally discovered by the other two "Betas".
Since this is the case, I don’t have to hide anymore. I simply walked out of the hidden place. The "alloy arrow" in my hand was ready to go and shot one of the "beta". Although it was very alert, it still couldn’t escape my "alloy arrow" and was nailed to the branch by the "alloy arrow" that penetrated the body.
Just when I successfully shot this "Beta", a nausea suddenly rose from my stomach, which was even more intense than the previous one. However, although I was sad, I was extremely happy in my heart, because I was sure that this feeling did come from the ultrasound of "Beta", because the sudden awakening of the "Demon Crocodile" proved this very well for me.
I saw the "Demon Crocodile" who was getting up, and I smiled slightly in my heart. Another "alloy arrow" gave the only "beta". While the "alloy arrow" shot the "beta", the uncomfortable feeling suddenly disappeared. At this time, the "Demon Crocodile" who was looking for the enemy also saw me on the edge of the round platform, but I didn't wait for it to react, and ran away immediately, and disappeared from the "Demon Crocodile"'s sight in an instant.
I came back again, and it was half an hour later. During this period, I walked around and collected some medium-grade medicinal materials. I looked quietly at the edge of the pool, but I didn't find any trace of the "Demon Crocodile". I was worried that I searched the entire round platform carefully, and there was no trace of the "Demon Crocodile". It seemed that the "Demon Crocodile" had returned to the pool. So, is it that I can collect "Dirty Grass" openly?
Now my feeling is that I successfully solved the obstacles to leveling and finally got the power to collect "Dirty-free Grass". This is very similar to the puzzle-free level game in the past, but this level is more hidden, and if a player who does not understand the "scouting technique" at all comes, the chance of success will be greatly reduced. After all, if you don't know the ultrasound, it is difficult to connect the cute "beta" with it, and you can't imagine the mutual cooperation relationship between the two. Now I have to admire my foresight. When I first learned the "scouting technique", although it is still only advanced now, it still plays a great role.
I approached the pool carefully without any reaction; I took out the medicine hoe and the medicine basket to collect the "Cold-Wu Chen Grass", but still no response. I was overjoyed and knew that the "Demon Crocodile" really couldn't come out, so I collected it with confidence. The "Collection Technique" that is already a master-level "Collection Technique" was that I quickly lit the "Cold-Wu Chen Grass" around the pool, which made me feel a little unsatisfied. There are still too few "Cold-Wu Chen Grass". It seems that I can only pick it again next time. I hope they can grow out soon.
On the way back, I encountered trouble because the elk that was originally tied to the mountainside was missing. And it was not the type that was attacked by monsters, otherwise at least the rope that tied the elk should have been left behind, but now even the rope is gone, which is very strange. Could it be that other players "hold the sheep"?
I am not sure about this situation, because the elk was "submitted" by me. It is said that it is impossible for others to ride without my authorization. So, what happened before? Looking at the surrounding ground, the ground that had been refreshed had no trace left, so I could not get any information. As a last resort, I had to walk back to "Pangu City".
However, before returning to "Pangu City", it is also a good choice to go to a nearby valley to take a look. About a thousand meters away, there is a valley where there are no special monsters or herbs, and there are not even ordinary flowers, plants and trees. However, there are two different natural environments, one is the "fire cave" and the other is the "ice cave".
As the name suggests, the "Flame Cave" is full of heat, and the more you go in, the more it becomes hotter. The bottom of the "Flame Cave" is a deep crypt with magma rolling. According to the introduction of "Shan Hai Jing", it is actually an "active volcano". In the "Flame Cave", the fire-type magic or the internal force of fire attributes will enter faster than outside. Therefore, it was an excellent place for those masters to choose in ancient times. What attracted me the most was that there was a hot spring made by geothermal heat in the middle of the "Flame Cave". The spring water inside was moderate, soaking in it can eliminate fatigue and quickly restore the "Fire Mana". Anyway, the "Fire Cave" has excellent benefits for the "Fire Taoist"!
As for the "ice cave" opposite to the "fire cave", it is the world of cold winter. Similarly, it is an excellent place for "ice Taoist priests". At the same time, there is also an "ice spring" in the middle of the "ice cave". The water inside is always zero degrees, which is excellent for the recovery of the "ice magic power" and the treatment of wounds. At the bottom of the "ice cave", there is a huge piece of ice that is blocked by an unknown monster.
According to "Shan Hai Jing", it is precisely because of the existence of the huge thousand-year-old ice that the "active volcano" cannot erupt smoothly, and a relatively stable situation is present between the two. I am interested in this valley purely because of the hot spring. Although I have taken a hot bath in the game, the feeling is very dull. In fact, the so-called bathing will automatically recover as long as the player dips into the bathtub and soaks it. Even the hair will help you choose the hairstyle and design it according to your prior design. It has no big meaning.
But washing hot springs is different. Just looking at the bubbles that keep rising in the hot springs is already a comfortable enjoyment. Besides, in reality, there is no chance to wash hot springs. Although there are many famous hot spring tourist attractions in the world now, most of them are crowded. Everyone is trying to taste the novelty. It is simply a scene of crowds. Who can bear that kind of sin? That is not enjoyment at all!
So although I yearn for hot springs, I have never taken it once. But now it is different. I can wash the hot springs in the game. Moreover, according to the introduction of "Shan Hai Jing", the valley is very secretive and difficult for ordinary people to discover, so for a long time, it will belong to me alone. Hehe, I will laugh even if I think about it.
A distance of one thousand meters came in a flash. I followed the method in the "Shan Hai Jing" and searched the dense bushes, found the entrance to the valley, and entered it. After walking through a short cave, the valley appeared in front of me was a small valley with two caves at the end of the valley. Looking at their image, the cave with a thin mist outside should be an "icing cave", and the cave with strange redness around the land is the "fire cave".
I chose the latter without hesitation. Of course, in order to prevent accidents, I took "Jiuyou" in my hand. After all, even "Shan Hai Jing" did not tell whether there were monsters in these two caves. But according to my own experience, there are usually monsters in this strange environment, but I don't know the level of monsters. I hope it's not the level of monsters above that kind of monster. After all, I was scared by the previous "demon crocodile" and actually had such powerful attributes. If all monsters were like it, I wouldn't have to mess around.
The more I entered the "Flame Cave", the more I felt the strong heat. After about a distance of about 100 meters, I saw the destination of this trip - the hot spring. No, it should not be called a hot spring, but a "hot spring area". I saw dozens of hot springs densely distributed in a large cave with a diameter of about 100 meters, and the temperature of each hot spring was different. After I carefully observed it, I found that there were no monsters here at all; and although the hot spring water was a little turbid, under my power, I could still see that there were no monsters below, only powders of various minerals.
Seeing this, I cheered, took off all my equipment, placed "Jiuyou" in a place where I could reach my hand, and buried my whole body in the hot spring. After a full minute, I burst out of the water and exhaled heavily. How could this feeling be described as "satisfaction"!
The water in this hot spring is very shallow, less than one meter, and the edges are very smooth, which makes me lying in the hot spring unknowingly fall asleep, and this sleep lasts for two hours.
When I woke up, I was very surprised by this. Because I have never had sleep in the game for a long time, or I don’t need to sleep at all. There is a "fatigue" in the character attributes, but it only takes a rest or lie in an inn and other places to recover quickly. At that time, it is usually the time to go offline. Therefore, there is no saying that sleep is at all.
But the facts now show that I did fall asleep just now, and I slept for two full hours. At that time, I had no thoughts at all. This was something that had never happened before. The only one who had similar situations in my previous experience was coma.
I shook my head, unable to understand the deep meaning. I wiped my body, put on my clothes and equipment, and headed towards the depths of the "fire hole", because I intuitively thought that there must be high-level monsters in the fire system, otherwise I would have really wasted such a great treasure land.
However, when I was marching, I found that the "fire-type mana" of 729 points had become the current 765 points, which surprised me inexplicably. Although I knew from "Shan Hai Jing" that this hot spring is good for players, I didn't expect that the effect was so significant. Maybe it was just for this I would always bubble in the future. After all, unlike my "ice-type mana", the training methods provided by the skill book can gradually increase. My "fire-type mana" and "wind-type mana" can be said to come from the outside world entirely, so they will slowly improve only when I use these two frequently.
Now, this hot spring has such effects. So is it said that the "ice spring" in the "ice cave" also has similar miraculous effects? Thinking of this possibility, I was excited again. Maybe this time I really found a good place.
Various thoughts were turning in my mind, and I came to a world full of fire without knowing it. If the "fire magic power" in my body itself had the effect of resisting fire energy, I would have been really unbearable. Looking at the crypt full of fiery magma not far away, I swallowed my saliva secretly. Although I had seen the "active volcano" in the northeast of "Suque City", it was just riding on Xiaobai and feeling the burning heat from afar. But now, although the burning heat here is not as powerful as the active volcano before, it may be because of the suppression of the ten thousand-year-old ice in the "ice cave", the scene I saw was much stronger than the last time I felt the burning heat.
The magma in my eyes was full of fiery red magma, and I could feel the strong heat there. I looked around and saw that there was nothing unnecessary. I had to take out an ordinary steel arrow from the "Qiankun Ring" and throw it into the magma pool. The steel arrow that touched the magma was instantly dissolved into iron, then extended to the top, and finally disappeared without a trace.
I didn't know that it was because of my small experiment that caused me a lot of trouble. Just as I was about to leave, a tremor from the heart attacked my nerves, and at the same time, I felt that the magma pool behind me was heating up and down quickly. In a blink of an eye, the magma pool that was originally constantly bubbling with hot bubbles was now like water entering the oil pan, reacting violently; and the fiery red rocks that were originally floating up and down with the bubbles were thrown into all directions under this drastic change.
Seeing this scene, I reflexively spread my feet and ran out of the cave. The "Demon Crocodile" before left me with such a deep impression. The powerful attribute of the "Demon Crocodile" still makes me still feel scared. I can't beat it at all, and the only thing left is to escape. Now it is not a small pool, but a huge magma pool. Just judging from the environment, it can be confirmed that if there is a monster inside, it must be a monster that is many times stronger than the "Demon Crocodile". Maybe it is a spirit beast? Or even a divine beast?
I don't want to confirm this result, because it may take my own life as a price! Just as I ran to the hot spring area, a roar like a "cow moo" suddenly came from behind me. The intensity of the sound waves and the relationship between its own "fire hole", so I almost fell down without any precautions. After finally stabilizing my body, I saw the little redness behind me, which was pure fire energy, and was rushing towards me quickly.
I ran again. But the short distance of 100 meters seemed to be infinitely stretched. Although the strong fire energy was not close yet, its scorching aura had already made me sweat like a spring with a good "fire magic power". My body, which was originally full of power, seemed to suddenly lose all its power.
About five or six seconds later, I finally rushed out of the "fire cave". Standing at the mouth of the "ice cave" that was only more than ten meters away from the "fire cave", feeling the chill coming from the "ice cave". I looked at the valley that was hit by the powerful fire energy that rushed out of the "fire cave" with lingering fear, and looked dull.
There was only one thought left in my mind. What happened today? Is it my bad luck day? Otherwise, why do you always encounter such a powerful thing? It seems that after you go back, you must find a "Photo Master" to divine a divination.
Chapter completed!
