Chapter 108: Fighting the Brain-Eating Monster
Richard took out several bottles of Fire Dance Stars, and then took out several steel arrows, and then tied the Fire Dance Stars firmly to the arrows. In this way, when the arrows hit the objects, the Fire Dance Stars would naturally shatter and cause a violent explosion.
The various stilt houses of the fishman tribe here are all built with wood and a kind of thatch, which are very flammable.
Richard chose the nine o'clock direction with the current hall as the center as his breakthrough point.
Because according to his observation, one is because the number of patrol teams here is small, and the other is that Richard vaguely saw a trail leading to the outside of the fishman tribe.
In an unfamiliar environment, running around in the dark is obviously very unwise. If there is a trail, it can at least prove that this is a passage, which is definitely safer than the unknown wilderness.
Therefore, if you want to find a place to hide temporarily, it would be a better choice to find a hidden place near the trail.
When everything was ready, Richard began to tiptoe out of the back door of the hall.
His figure flashed and he flashed into the shadow of a stilt house in front.
At this time, a team of five fishmen patrolling team was passing by the shadow more than ten meters ahead.
A few seconds later, two arrows with red bindings suddenly shot from the shadow to the sky at six o'clock and twelve o'clock.
Many fishmen warriors on patrol were still surprised at how the sharp sound of breaking through the air could be heard.
Then, two violent explosions sounded!
In an instant, two stilt houses at twelve o'clock and six o'clock were on fire.
Accompanied by the screams and shouts of the fishmen, the whole fishman village was boiling as if hot water was poured into boiling oil!
The fastest reaction was of course the fishmen patrols!
For a moment, almost all the fishmen patrols ran quickly towards the place where the fire broke out, and kept shouting "Guji Guji" in the fishman language.
Without having to guess, Richard knew that it must mean to shout "enemy attack" or "fire fighting".
Richard took advantage of the chaos in the fish tribe and immediately drank the magic potion of wind elegance. Two groups of light blue airflows suddenly surrounded his legs, and the whole person shot straight to the nine o'clock direction like an arrow from a bow.
At the nine o'clock direction, the fish people in the stilt houses were just awakened by the noise. They opened the door and saw a gust of wind blowing through. The dust raised blinded their eyes. They wiped it and looked again. They saw nothing. They only saw two flames not far away in the tribe. They hurriedly called their family to put out the fire.
At this time, Richard had already crossed a short distance of more than 100 meters and arrived at the heavily guarded gate.
Even though the sudden fire caused many fish warriors to go to put out the fire, the number was reduced a lot, but at a glance, there were still four or five fish warriors, plus two double-blade warriors still guarding here.
Obviously, fighting head-on is not a good idea, and Richard would not choose to run out of the gate, which would cause the fishman tribe to send people to chase or search along the trail, which would be detrimental to his subsequent concealment.
Richard hid in the shadows, cast the Summon Skeleton, summoned a Sword and Shield Skeleton, and immediately cast the secret technique to possess the skeleton.
Suddenly, the Sword and Shield Skeleton strode directly to the gate, attracting all the fishmen's attention here. The fence that Richard wanted to climb over
Seeing that all the guards had been transferred away, Richard calmly climbed over the wall at the gate and left. Before leaving, he did not forget to send the besieged Sword and Shield Skeleton back to the undead world.
The fishman guards were left behind, looking at the position of the Sword and Shield Skeleton that suddenly disappeared, and they were dumbfounded.
After walking along the trail for a while, Richard summoned the Sword and Shield Skeleton again and arranged it to open the way in front.
Looking at the chaotic fishman tribe camp, Richard smiled lightly and continued to walk forward along the trail without looking back.
As he walked, Richard observed the surroundings. The path was surrounded by rolling hills and dense ferns, which were very easy to avoid.
After a while, Richard vaguely saw several caves. Due to the continuous battles and unfamiliar areas, he still wanted to find a place to rest and sort out his ideas for the next step.
Suddenly, he felt the Soul Devouring Demon Spider eggs in his arms jump, which was a sign that the Soul Devouring Demon Spider was about to hatch.
This made Richard a little anxious. It seemed that he had to find a place quickly, because as soon as the Soul Devouring Demon Spider hatched, Richard had to hurry up to sign the blood contract, so he had to find a relatively safe place to do it.
He quickly compared the several caves he had just discovered and found a cave that was just big enough to accommodate one person.
Richard quickly possessed the skeleton and broke in directly. After killing an unknown beast, he took over the nest.
At the same time, Richard did not forget to order the sword and shield skeleton to throw the beast's body far away. When the skeleton came back, he arranged it to guard the entrance of the cave, and he took a rest.
At this time, there was a sound of shell breaking in his arms, and an eight-legged spider the size of a white jade fist crawled out of the broken egg.
Richard was overjoyed immediately. After waiting for so long, the Soul Devouring Demon Spider finally hatched.
The Soul Devouring Demon Spider that just came out seemed a little dazed, and then it followed the familiar breath and crawled from Richard's palm along his forearm to his body.
Richard carefully took it off and placed it in the middle of his palm. At the same time, he bit open his index finger, squeezed out three drops of blood, and began to recite the incantation of the blood oath contract.
Following the low spell, three drops of blood were suspended in the air, forming an equilateral triangle shape. Suddenly, a blood-colored vertical pupil suddenly appeared in the middle of the triangle.
The moment his vertical pupils opened, a strange coercion descended upon him, and like a living creature, he looked back and forth between Richard and the young Soul-eating Demonic Spider. For a moment, Richard felt that he and the Soul-eating Demon Spider There is an extra blood connection between the Soul Demon Spiders.
The next second, the bloody vertical pupils disappeared in an instant!
At this point, the blood oath contract is basically completed. In the future, as long as Richard feeds a drop of his blood essence to the Soul-Eating Demon Spider every ten days and a half, he can always control this monster, even if the Soul-Eating Spider Even if the demon spider dies, there will be no backlash.
But before Richard could carefully observe the soul-eating spider in its infancy, enjoying the joy of being its first contracted creature, suddenly, the sword-and-shield skeleton guarding the entrance of the cave issued a rapid warning, as if something was heading towards the cave. Move over at high speed.
The next second, the sounds of fighting between sword and shield skeletons and unknown creatures were heard.
What a speed! Richard knew that the warning range of the Sword and Shield Skeleton was at least tens of meters, but it only took about two seconds from the time he heard the warning to the sound of the fight, which showed how fast the opponent was!
correct! It should be because of the blood essence when he signed the blood contract with the Soul-Eating Demonic Spider just now!
This unknown creature is most likely attracted by its own essence and blood.
Richard quickly grabbed the infant Soul-Eating Demon Spider, stuffed it into his arms, and walked towards the entrance of the cave to explore the enemy's situation.
What caught the eye was an extremely ugly monster, resembling a dog, with no head, no neck, no skin, and exposed blood-red muscle tissue. The roots were intertwined. The part that should have been the neck was now replaced by a naked brain with grooves and ravines. The brain folds are clearly visible.
"Oops! Brain-eating monster! It's such a monster!" Richard was shocked.
Since the last time he met the Man-Faced Demon Spider, Richard has learned a lot. He consciously checked some books related to the Underdark in the library, such as "Introduction to Species of the Underdark" and so on. So he recognized at a glance that the monster in front of him was a brain-eating monster.
The brain-eating monster likes to eat the brains of intelligent creatures. The smarter the intelligent creatures, the more it likes them. Therefore, the brains of human wizard apprentices are a rare delicacy for them.
The most terrible thing is that the brain-eating monster's witchcraft resistance is abnormally high, higher than that of the iron-jawed lizard, and it moves very quickly, so it is extremely difficult for wizard apprentices to deal with. Generally, witchcraft attacks on the brain-eating monster. It can be said to be ineffective.
If he were an ordinary second-level wizard apprentice now, and if he chose to chant a spell directly and carry out a witchcraft attack when encountering a brain-eating monster, he would definitely be defeated!
But Richard immediately formulated a strategy. He used the master-level zero-level witchcraft to summon skeletons, and combined it with the high-level witchcraft tool Bone Summoning Staff. Within one second, he completed the spell.
In an instant, a skeleton warrior and two skeleton soldiers quickly climbed out of the summoning circle!
At this time, the soul fire of the sword and shield skeleton at the entrance of the cave suddenly went out.
It turned out that a brain-eating monster attracted the attention of the sword and shield skeleton from the front, and another brain-eating monster suddenly attacked from the side and rear, causing the sword and shield skeleton guarding the door to die instantly!
Two brain-eating monsters! This set off alarm bells in Richard's heart.
Fortunately, the death of the summoned object will not cause mental backlash like some contracted creatures.
The two brain-eating monsters thought that after killing the skeleton at the entrance of the cave, they could go in and enjoy their "delicious food". However, when they were about to rush into the cave, they were attacked and repelled by three fully armed skeletons. out.
Considering that the number of brain-eating monsters is unknown, staying in the cave would be a dead end for him, which is quite unfavorable.
After Richard quickly equipped himself with the dark element shield and bone armor technique, he placed the skeleton warrior in front and the two sword and shield skeletons at the back. Such a triangular formation firmly protected him in the middle, slowly Out of the cave.
Richard also thought very clearly that in the face of monsters with extremely high witchcraft resistance such as brain-eating monsters, general witchcraft is basically ineffective. Using witchcraft is a waste of mental energy. It is better to use physical attacks to be more effective. , so at this moment, the giant bow is already in hand.
Multi-shooting is on!
Richard shot three more arrows in a row. He expected that even if he couldn't kill the opponent, he would at least be able to severely damage the opponent. But surprisingly, they were all quickly dodged by the two brain-eating monsters.
It seems that this is the first time that my master-level bow skills have failed!
Richard finally understood the true meaning of the words "very fast" when describing the brain-eating monster in the book.
This is like in a previous life, one person asked how fast Bolt could run, and the other person replied, very fast!
Vague descriptions are harmful!
