Needle and purple stems weave through the dense jungle.
The leaves above me became thicker and thicker, almost obscuring the entire sky.
The air was extremely hot and humid.
Tree vines are entangled, and if you are not careful, you will trip.
When I stepped on the ground, I felt soft because the ground accumulated a lot of rotten leaves over time.
Zi Di's footsteps paused slightly: "It's around here."
Needle Jin's eyes were slightly fixed, he knew what the girl meant - this was the place where she separated from the others and escaped alone.
According to Zi Di's account, the evil wolf was chasing at that time, and in order to delay time, the last three guards stayed here, trying their best to hold back the evil wolf and fight for a glimmer of life for Zi Di and the unconscious needle.
Continuing to walk dozens of steps, around a thick tree, the two saw the dead body.
In the bushes, the two corpses were more than ten steps apart, emitting a strong smell of blood.
Their eyes widened, and fear and anger still lingered on their faces.
Zidi couldn't help but hold her breath and stopped in place, while Needle Jin took a few steps and leaned over to investigate.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a thick black and red line resembled an arrow shot from a crossbow and crossbow, shooting from under the corpse, aiming at the face of the gold.
The needle hair exploded, and his pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a needle tip, and he reached out to probe.
Hold the "black and red thick line" all at once!
"Sizzle!"
The thick black and red thread was stuck in the head by the fingers of the gold, and it was immediately seen - it was a very strange poisonous snake!
The viper's scales are black, and the snake's head is bright red. It extends from the head of the snake to the back of the snake and all the way to the tail of the snake, forming a distinct crimson line.
On both sides of the poisonous snake's body, there were actually black legs like centipedes with hundreds of them.
"This is a bronze-level magical beast!" Needle felt the life breath of the centipede snake, and immediately showed a struggling expression.
"Ah, be careful!" Everything happened so fast that Zidi reacted and exclaimed.
"This is a bloodline centipede, which contains highly poisonous. The poison is violent, and it will kill you in a few breaths!" Zidi hurriedly introduced, "And its centipede feet, which can pierce the leather armor."
As soon as the words fell, the bloodline centipede's counterattack had arrived.
Its body twisted and wrapped around the needle arm, and almost all of its centipede feet were stuck in the boy's arm, and it was pierced deeper and deeper.
Blood gushed out, and the pain hit Needle Jin's heart.
At the same time, Needle Jin felt his arm being squeezed by a huge entanglement force, the flesh and blood seemed to be squeezed into mud, and the arm bones were also groaning.
He quickly used his fingers hard, trying to strangle the bloodline centipede, but the snake bones were very hard and the snake scales were also very tough and slippery.
Needle shouted lowly, pressed the snake's head to the ground, and quickly pulled out the dagger with his other hand, raised it high, and stabbed it hard.
The dagger seemed to have pierced a hard stone, nailing the snake's head deep into the ground.
The poisonous snake fought back before it died, and the centipede suddenly penetrated an inch, making the golden arm even more bloody.
However, after a few breaths, the viper's body completely softened.
Although there was no winding power, the hard centipede feet were still stuck in the flesh and skin of the boy.
Needle Jin gritted his teeth, first took back the dagger, and quickly retreated, away from the corpse, and then pulled out the centipede feet one by one.
Zidi hurriedly took out the medicinal powder from his waist bag, sprinkled a layer on the wound on the needle arm, then took out the white bandage, and quickly bandaged the boy.
The wound was relatively deep, but the physique of the needle was great, and the effect of the wound medicine was good, and the bleeding stopped quickly.
And a cool and even slightly sour feeling, mixed with faint pain, was constantly transmitted from the wound to Needle's heart.
"What kind of potion is this? So effective? Doesn't it mean that magic and fighting spirit are prohibited on this island?" Needle was curious about the immediate effect of the potion.
"This is an herb that originates from the barbarian tribes of the Frost Land. This is not a magic potion, but simply uses the nature of herbs." Zidi explained.
Magic potion is the pharmacist's use of magical materials, successfully mixing the materials and magic in them, and forming a certain state of balance and stability. Because this potion itself contains magic, it often takes effect quickly and has excellent results.
Zidi looked at the needle wound, her eyes were a little red, and she said with shame and guilt: "Fortunately, the centipede is not poisonous! I'm sorry for hurting you, my lord. I should have told you this information earlier."
Seeing the girl like this, Needle couldn't help but feel pity, shook his head, and quickly relieved: "It's not your fault."
After crossing the river, they rushed through the jungle and were very wary of their surroundings. Even if there is communication, it is very limited, so try to avoid distraction.
This bloodline centipede came out of the corpse too fast, beyond the gold's expectations.
"Even a snake on this island is so weird and sinister." The needle returned to the previous place, used the front part of the dagger to pick open the snake's head, and then cut its body open.
"If I can stimulate the fighting spirit, I won't be hurt by it." Needle sighed secretly.
Regardless of whether he was a silver-level vindictive qi or a black iron level, as long as he activated the fighting qi defense at that time, it would be difficult for the centipede to pierce his arm.
The needle looked inside the body of the venomous snake, and the snake's belly contained a large amount of undigested food.
The young knight's eyes flashed with brilliance: "It seems that this kind of centipede likes to devour the organs of its prey and is bloodthirsty for a living, no wonder it comes out of the corpse."
"Strange." After searching twice, Needle felt puzzled, "Where is the crystal core in this magical beast?"
Warcraft can absorb natural elements and brew its own magic. As this kind of magic accumulates over time, it will form a crystallization of magic - it is the magical beast crystal core!
The newly born magical beast has no crystal nucleus in its body. The crystal nuclei in the bodies of juvenile magical beasts are very small, and adult magical beasts have crystal nuclei.
This bloodline centipede is not a juvenile at all, it is a mature body, but it does not have a crystal nucleus. This confuses the wire.
Zi Di explained at the right time: "There are many strange and strange magical beasts on this island, they have a strong breath of life, but there are no magic crystals in their bodies. The search and rescue team had killed some magical beasts before, but none of them found magic crystals in their bodies. But maybe it's also for this reason that none of these magical beasts have shown any spell-like spells."
"So that's how it is." Only then did the needle understand.
Although the value of the magical beast crystal core is not small, if it is because of the lack of magic crystals, these magical beasts cannot use spell-like spells, then it will definitely outweigh the disadvantages for Needle and Purple Stem.
The needle thought of the battle between the green vine and the giant turtle he had witnessed before.
"The lava gushing out of the giant turtle does not have the fluctuation of spells, it is not a spell-like technique that mobilizes the magic power in its body. It's a biological instinct."
This is not surprising.
The mouths of some dragon beasts have special structures such as poisonous gland bags and sulfur bags, which can spit out the venom and sulfur in the bag while spewing airflow, forming venom spitting or flame spitting out.
This is not a spell-like spell, but the ability of the creature itself.
After solving the bloodline centipede, Needle went to check the body again.
The two guards on the ground were already dead.
A person's fatal wound was in his throat, and almost his entire neck was bitten off, leaving only a trace of flesh and skin on the back of his neck. The other person was even more miserable - his whole head was violently deformed, and his brain was mixed with blood flowing all over the place.
These are all fatal wounds.
And both of their stomachs were rotten, and this part of the injury was obviously caused by a poisonous snake.
Needle's expression became a little more solemn, he stood up and looked around.
He carefully found that the surrounding bushes were seriously trampled and broken.
In the eyes of ordinary people, this scene is chaotic. But Needle found that he could effortlessly distinguish which were human and which were traces caused by the wolf.
Even, based on these traces, a virtual route was drawn in front of his eyes.
The young man's eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes followed the route that appeared in his mind, gradually looking away.
But soon, bushes and dense forests obscured the view.
Needle took a step, took more than a dozen steps, passed through the bushes, and turned around a big tree.
At this time, a rare clearing in the forest was revealed in front of his eyes.
Zidi followed the needle to this open space.
Needle looked down at his feet and found that there were still footprints left in the open space.
This is because almost all the ground in the dense forest is piled up with a lot of rotten leaves. The rainfall is also heavy, resulting in a lot of moisture in the rotten leaves.
Therefore, the heavier the person, the deeper the footprints formed on the ground, and often some water stains ooze.
The footprints in the open space are very far apart from each other, which indicates that the owners of the footprints, that is, the guards, are in a Mercedes-Benz state.
Needle Jin pondered and secretly speculated: "These two guards have taken a fancy to this open space, there is no cover, the view is very good, it is a superior battlefield to deal with evil wolves."
It was like a replay of the scene in his mind.
"But when they were holding here, they suddenly found the evil wolf running in the bushes, as if they were going to bypass these guards to chase Zi Di."
"So these two guards were in a hurry and had to give up the location and venture into the bushes in an attempt to pursue and thwart the evil wolf."
"In the bushes, the two guards were one in front and one behind, and the evil wolf was extremely fast, suddenly turned around and counterattacked, jumped up, and directly bit through the head of one of the guards."
"Then, it rushed to the guards behind and bit off his throat!"
The needle synthesized the corpse and various traces and made a series of guesses.
A chill couldn't help but spread from the bottom of my heart throughout my body.
The blue-haired wolf has a brutal and ferocious temperament, but it is still so cunning. It seems to be able to see people's hearts, adopts compound tactics of seducing and counterattacking, and the tactics are executed very crisply and neatly, and quickly successfully hunted down the two guards.
During the whole process, it also took advantage of the location and the mentality of the two guards.
Even if it turns around and attacks, when it delivers a fatal blow, it is very strategic -
If it doesn't have a helmet, it will directly bite the head with its fangs.
The one with the helmet bit off his throat.
The strength of the two guards did not reach the black iron, but they both had a bronze level. It was not an opponent of the silver demonic beast, but at least it should cause some injuries to the evil wolf.
However, when the guards finally sacrificed, they did not make the evil wolf pay any price.
Needle Jin sighed at Zi Di behind him: "This blue-haired wolf must have silver strength!"
The battle traces are the best proof, and the bite and jumping power shown by the evil wolf are obviously of the silver level.
Needle Jin sighed: "The most terrifying thing is that it has an appalling intelligence, completely surpassing ordinary magical beasts, especially in tactics, it is almost comparable to humans!"
"Generally speaking, wolves hunt in packs and use pack tactics. The lone wolves are all defeated by the wolves who have been expelled by the pack, or the old, weak, sick and disabled."
"The tiger will hide and lurk, slowly approach the prey, and then suddenly exert force to fight for a one-hit kill."
"The wolf who chased us before was obviously very unusual. The tactics it uses are more insidious and ruthless than those of the Tigers."
"It's a fluke that we were able to solve it before!"
Zi Di nodded in agreement, her face couldn't help but turn a little whiter: "I even suspected that that evil wolf had a human soul! The first time we came into contact with the wolf was when the members at the end of the team were attacked by it."
"It obviously has the ability to kill, but it only dragged the guard away, making us rush to the rescue."
"Our formation was chaotic and gave it a loophole."
"In the first contact battle, although we injured it very badly, it killed three guards."
"The loss is serious, and we are of course very angry. But the evil wolf was a silver-level magical beast after all, and it had long since disappeared. After we discussed, we decided to continue searching for you, my lord, and temporarily give up taking revenge on the evil wolf."
"Many of us believe that this badly injured wolf will be devoured by other beasts in the jungle. Even if he is still alive, he should be beaten and hurt by us, and he will not dare to provoke us again."
"But the facts after that told us that we were all wrong."
"Big mistake!"
"The second time the wolf appeared was six days later. Most of its injuries have healed, and it rushed directly to our camp in the evening."
"It brought a beehive, threw it into the camp, and immediately retreated."
"Subsequently, a swarm of fire poison bees attacked the entire camp. Those poisonous bees are not even afraid of fireworks, they have fierce fire poison. We finally repelled these poisonous bees, but four guards were stung, the most seriously injured, and they all fell into a coma."
"They are hot all over, and I have tried every method I can think of, but I can't cool them down. Late that night, they all died."
"Since then, our team has been attacked by the wolf again and again, and it has become our deadly god of death, our lingering nightmare......"
Zidi said this, holding her arms, her body trembling slightly, and there were still quite a few lingering fears in her heart.
Needle looked at his fiancée who was about to cry, ah, she was so helpless.
The young knight couldn't help but take a few steps, stretched out his arms, and took the initiative to take Zidi into his arms.
The girl's delicate body trembled, like a frightened rabbit returning to the warm nest. Soon, her emotions stabilized in Gil's arms.
The needle gently patted the girl's back, and when he looked down, he saw that the girl's face gradually showed shyness.
"I can understand how you feel." Needle said gently, "Now, I'm with you. Unless it falls, I will always protect you and stop any magical beasts that harm you."
"Lord Wire!" Zi Di's eyes showed tenderness.
The two continued to clean the battlefield.
Two dead guards, one in leather armor but in tattered form. One was wearing a helmet and chain mail.
The needle first took the iron arm armor and replaced it with his own body - the leather arm armor on his original body had just been pierced by the centipede foot of the poisonous snake.
He then took away the iron chain mail and helmet and put them on his body.
A sense of security suddenly arose.
Equipment can make up for the gap in the life level to a certain extent.
For example, the blue-haired wolf is unwilling to use its teeth to compete with the helmet.
As for the iron boots, they were abandoned by the metal because they did not fit the young man's feet.
In addition to protective gear, there are also weapons.
Two guards, one using a long sword and the other using a scimitar.
One side of the long sword was broken, but the scimitar was in good condition.
The needle first held the scimitar in his hand, and after swinging it, his brows furrowed slightly.
He put down his scimitar and took up his long sword again.
Just as he was about to dance, suddenly another memory was triggered and appeared in the boy's mind.
(The new official group was blocked yesterday, so please don't join the group for the time being.) The old guys know that reports and criticism have always been with us, and this was the case six or seven years ago. It doesn't matter, there will never be no shortage of thorns and hardships on the way forward. Without resistance, how can it be called a journey? Tonight I will discuss this matter with the management, and I will also bubble up in the original group. I'm sorry, but I can't reply to private chats one by one. One person's energy is too limited. But I can see everyone's encouragement and comfort, and I remember it in my heart. Thank you!! ）
