My Maid Knight

2022-04-20/p> Chapter 121 Annihilation and stealth

In the giant tree forest, the split-bristled lizard beast threw down the gibbon, and its sharp teeth gnawed straight Broken its cervical vertebrae, then opened its bloody mouth wide open like a sacrificial bowl and swallowed it whole.

Bristles have two stomach pouches, the main pouch for digesting and storing food, and the secondary pouch for temporary storage.

After swallowing a whole gibbon, his abdomen suddenly swelled in a large circle, like a pregnant woman who was pregnant for ten months, and then it ignored the three Roy beside him and twisted. Moved and swayed away.

After eating, the aggression of the split-bristled lizards will be greatly reduced, and they will go back to the nest for dormancy, and will not go out to forage again until the food in their stomachs is digested.

“Do you want to do it?” Harvey gave Roy a wink.

“…No.”

Roy watched the back of the split-bristle lizard beast leave, pondered then said, “Don’t be in a hurry to beat the grass to scare the snake, we’ll follow It goes to the den to see.”

The den of the split-bristle lizards is built in a cave near a stream, which is the ideal living environment for them to live in a humid and shady place.

The split-bristled lizard beast got into the cave, and soon there was no movement inside.

“You guys help me keep the wind outside, and I’ll go in and investigate.”

Roy ordered, then entered the stealth state and tiptoed into the cave.

The inside of the cave is very damp, and the soft soil is covered with moss. Roy walks slowly and gradually into the cave without making a sound.

As expected, after preying on the gibbons, the split-bristled lizard beast leaned back into the hibernation state after returning to the nest, completely unaware of the abnormality in the cave.

Roy circumvented its bloated body, and sure enough, found the “collectible” of the split-maned lizard in the deepest part of the cave.

Glass bottles, glowing ore, rusted iron gear… these are the junk it normally swallows in the forest and spit it out after returning to its lair.

Over time, these “collections” piled up into a hill.

Roy rummaged through the garbage mountain for a while, but couldn’t find the client’s matching sword. Maybe this split-maned lizard beast was not the one that attacked the client before.

“It really didn’t go so well…”

Roy was about to leave when suddenly there was a faint hissing sound from outside the cave.

For humans, the hissing sound was very slight, but the split-maned lizard beast who was sleeping beside hu hu shivered and raised his head abruptly.

Immediately afterwards, it also made the same hissing sound and quickly rushed outside.

Roy followed it out of the cave, came to Arya and Harvey’s side to release the stealth state, and asked, “What happened?”

Harvey pointed to a nearby one Direction: “There seems to be a fight with the split-bristled lizards over there. The cry just now was that they were calling for their companions.”

“Maybe it was Qin Xiang and the others who were besieged by the split-bristled lizards. .” Arya asked, “Are we going to support?”

Roy shook the head, pondered then said: “With their strength, there is no problem in wanting to retreat, we rush over to rescue , they may not appreciate it.

“Most of the bristle lizards around here are now attracted to them, and the dens are empty, and we can take advantage of this time to search for companions. The whereabouts of the sword. ”

Most of the dens of the split-bristled lizard beasts are distributed near this stream. Along the stream, Roy followed the vines and came to the interior of each den to search.

Most of the The interior of the lair is the same as the previous inspection, and it is basically a hill of garbage piled up with glass bottles and rusted and broken equipment.

The only reward is that I found an azure the size of a fist. spiritual power crystal, although it is the lowest level spiritual power crystal, it is a pity to lose it, so he had to reluctantly take it away.

After searching several nests in succession, he found nothing, he couldn’t help but doubt, Was the missing matching sword really taken away by the split-maned lizard beast?

It has been a while, and I don’t know when the split-maned lizard beast will come back, Roy quickened his pace and continued down I rushed to a cave.

The situation in this cave was different. The split-bristled lizards inside did not respond to the calls from outside to support their fellow clan, but stayed in the cave and hibernated.

p>

It has a lot of scars on its body. These scars are new and some have not healed. It seems to have suffered a serious battle recently.

Roy bypassed the house and recuperated at home. The split-bristled lizard beast, looked behind it, and found the matching sword needed for the commission in the pile of garbage at a glance.

The diamond-shaped red gemstone on the matching sword is very conspicuous. , although there are some stains on the body of the sword, it can be seen that the whole body is still intact and there is no obvious damage.

It seems that it is the client who was attacked by this split-maned lizard beast, and its injuries may also be at that time.

Roy walked over and picked up the sword gently, without disturbing it.

Although with his strength, he could naturally break into the cave and kill the wounded one.

The lizard beast, and then swagger away.

But the sense of achievement of sneaking into success is not the same as opening Wushuang. As a Moonshadow, occasionally I have to do things that fit my identity.

The entrusted item has been received, and Roy is about to leave the cave. At this time, the roar of the split-bristled lizard beast is heard outside.

This roar is more rapid and sharp than the last time, The split-bristled lizard beast in the cave shook its body, opened its eyes reluctantly, and stood up.

However, after getting up, it did not immediately go to support, but turned its head. Glancing at the rubbish hill in the corner.

It seemed to be impressed by the ruby sword, and after seeing the sword missing, the split-bristled lizard beast It was obviously stunned for a moment, and then let out an angry neigh.

“Ey——”

It got excited, and its several-meter-long tail swept across the nest. Roy was unavoidable.

“It’s really troublesome!”

Roy emerged from the stealth, jumped high to avoid the sweep, and the black tri-style of his left hand turned into a spiritual power fist. The head of a split-bristled lizard beast.

The split-bristled lizard beast tilted its head, and with the spiritual power of “Destruction”, the fist cut a deep, bone-deep wound on its forehead.

At the same time it fought back, swiping its front paws at Roy with a thumping sound.

At this time, he could no longer dodge in the air, Roy was ready to take the blow, and next moment, a sharp arrow was shot from the entrance of the cave.

Arya and Harvey rushed to support when they heard the sound from inside the cave, and the piercing arrows hit the split-bristled lizard beast’s neck with precision, interrupting its attack.

Arya’s charge followed, she snorted softly, and the sacred armor covered with golden light slammed into the split-maned lizard beast like a shooting star, knocking it directly to the ground.

This split-bristled lizard beast had been injured before, and now it was attacked by Harvey and Arya’s sneak attack. Before they could make any effective resistance, they were killed by the three of Roy.

“Unfortunately… if you didn’t pay attention to this sword, you could have saved your life.”

Roy shrugged, then raised the ruby sword and said, “The entrusted item has been Now that we have it, we can withdraw.”

The three of them left the cave, at this time the cries of the split-bristled lizard beasts in the woods continued one after another.

Roy looked up at the direction where the roar came from, frowned: “There’s a fire over there.”

Not far from here, there is fire and smoke. Rising in the woods, it is particularly eye-catching at the time when the evening is about to fall.

He remembered that there was a Flame Summoner named Karen in Qin Xiang’s square, and it seemed that Qin Xiang’s team was really fighting against the bristle lizard there, and it seemed that their battle situation was not easy.

Contrary to the “Flame Summoner only arson” stereotype, the Flame Summoner, which can manipulate flames, can both start a fire and put it out.

As the class leader of the Flame Summoner class, Karen believes that with her strength and common sense, she should know that arson cannot be arbitrarily set in a forest environment, and the fire can spread to an uncontrollable level.

And now the fire over there is getting bigger and bigger. Does this mean that the battle situation over there is so urgent that she can’t keep her hands and can’t be distracted to control the spread of the fire?

“Let’s go over there.” Roy’s expression became serious, and the three moved towards that direction.

……

At this time, Qin Xiang squad was completely trapped in the encirclement of several bristle lizards, 100 meters away from here.

Three sword lights landed on the neck of the split-bristled lizard beast at the same time. The sharp edge of the Ten Breaks Sword cut through its thick mane and hard scales, giving this riddled with scars the score. The Bristle Lizard’s final blow.

Qin Xiang stood with his sword in hand, watching the devil beast in front of him fall down weakly, splashing dust.

But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, another split-bristled lizard beast had already pounced on him.

At the critical moment, Gaia raised his arm shield to block him in time, and continuously activated the Guardian Knight skill——

First Rank skill “Guardian Armor”: Cohesive Earth System Elemental shaping protective armor, especially able to protect against physical attacks.

Second Rank Skill “Black Tortoise Shield”: Expands the Black Tortoise array to strengthen the shield’s defense, and can deflect melee attacks.

The third rank skill “Earth Concentric”: When standing on the ground, the body is connected to the earth, enhancing its physical fitness and reducing damage.

Guardian Knight is the inheritance that focuses on defense. With the blessing of various skills, even the third rank Guardian Knight can directly resist the physical attack of the fourth rank devil beast.

The split-bristle lizard slammed into the Black Tortoise shield, but instead bounced itself away, it let out a roar, and continued to attack Gaia with a continuous attack and bite.

The pressure from the shield was heavy after another, Gaia felt as if he was resisting a hill, his whole body skeleton was creaking, his arms gradually went numb as if he was about to lose consciousness, loudly shouted: ” Anna!”

“I’m here!”

Anna on the side held the spiritual power crystal in her left hand, pointed her staff at Gaia with her right hand, and tried her best to activate the “healing technique”.

Gaia’s body warmed up, and the healing technique relieved his injury and pain. Karen behind him also launched Fireball again at this time. The scorching high temperature forced the split-bristled lizard beast to retreat.

On the surface, this team seems to cooperate very well, and it can still make an orderly response to the devil beast higher than the First Rank, but Gaia’s expression is still dignified.

Yes, their team can not only resist the attack of the sub-maned lizard, but also have enough strength to kill it.

But then what? There was more than one in front of them.

The battle has been going on for a while now and Anna and Karen’s spiritual power is nearly depleted, as is his stamina.

Even Qin Xiang, the most powerful player in the team, had to slow down his attack frequency at this time. The violent heaving of his chest showed that his situation was not as easy as his calm expression.

“I think we should retreat for the time being, Qin Xiang.”

Taking advantage of the gap between the split-maned lizard beast being forced back by the flames, Gaia retreated to Qin Xiang’s side and took a breath. Quickly said, “There are too many devil beasts around here, and it is unrealistic to wipe them all at once. Let’s go back and make some preparations first.

“According to my estimation, we will wipe them out three or four times in batches Left and right, you can completely empty the devil beast in this area, which is also the safest method.

“Hurry up and make a decision, if it’s too late, you may not be able to leave!”

Qin Xiang looked around all around with his sword, the nearby trees were burning and lying on the scorched earth Several corpses of split-bristled lizard beasts, but more standing.

His brown pupils reflected the beating fireworks, and he was a little hesitant.

Gaia’s suggestion is actually very pertinent. Even though he still has the strength to fight, his three teammates are all lower than him in the First Rank, and it is already unsupportable at this time.

That’s not to say they’re useless, after all their opponent is the fourth rank devil beast.

It would be better to say that they can kill devil beasts through the cooperation of each other, and their performance is already excellent.

But it would take too much time and energy to clean up the devil beasts in this area in three or four times. During this process, there is no guarantee that other teams will not catch the early bird catches the worm.

Roy’s silhouette came to mind, Qin Xiang was silent.

Limited to the team’s lineup, their sword cultivator, Flame Summoner, Cleric, and Guardian Knight teams are only suitable for frontal attack.

On the other hand, Roy can use Moonshadow’s characteristics to sneak in and explore, and good luck can even find the entrusted items without a fight and complete the task.

In other words, the Roy squad is actually more suitable for completing this type of quest.

It’s just that he doesn’t want to give up. After all, this is the first commission he received after he joined the ministry. He needs to complete it and make a good impression in front of the minister and a group of old members, so that he can be promoted to minister in the future. Good foundation.

As for Roy, Qin Xiang has always been hiding a trace of dissatisfaction with him in the heart.

He especially didn’t want to lose to Roy.

Not only because elder sister Qin Lu had attached importance to Roy’s mystery in the past, but also because when he invited Roy to join the team, Roy actually rejected him.

Before this, he never thought that someone would refuse his invitation. Is the signboard of the temple Aristocratic Family not loud enough or his innate talent is low?

It wouldn’t make sense to say that Roy turned to the more promising Arya, because when he rejected him, Arya hadn’t become an Arya…

” Qin Xiang! Captain! What are you going to do!”

Gaia’s scream was close to his ear, Qin Xiang came back to his senses from a trance.

The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, just after a few seconds of hesitation, several bristle lizards have re-encircled them.

Under the enemy’s belly and back, the four gathered together, back to each other, alerting the siege of the split-bristled lizard beast.

“I took the lead and led you to break through the encirclement, Karen released the “fire wall” in the back to break the back. “Qin Xiang commanded in a deep voice.

“Are you sure you want to do this? “

Karen looks pale, “Before retreating, I need to use the remaining spiritual power to cast “Fire Repellent” to extinguish the flames that are still burning nearby. If it is used to cast “Fire Wall”, it will take a short time I will not be able to quell the fire that is still spreading. ”

As the squad leader of the Flame Summoner squad, she knows better than anyone that Flame Summoner must be spared to do the aftermath after the battle, especially in this forest environment.

The forest fire will not only change the ecology of this area, but also trigger a devil beast riot, and they cannot bear the consequences of the chain reaction.

“Then let Gaia stop. “

Qin Xiang clenched his long sword and stepped forward, “Follow me and prepare to break through.” ”

Thank you, Apple, for your reward for being shot, Floating Life and Dreaming, and Dong Huang Tai Miao!
