Chapter Seventy-Two: Sure enough, he is as timid as a mouse

Looking at the second-level wood brown rat jumping on the tree, Li Ji was still undecided, taking the initiative to provoke a second-level magic beast was not a wise choice for him now, but if he didn't take the initiative to attack, he couldn't detect the attack method of the wood brown rat, and it was difficult to judge the way and power of its magic attack based on the verbal introduction of the young beast. It's just a matter of doing things that lack heart and eyes, and if you do death one after another, you don't know when you'll hang up.

The second-level wood brown rat was still walking on the tree as if no one was around, and when it stepped out of the trunk of the tree that was its background, Li Ji really saw its detailed appearance. A pair of thieves' slippery dark blue eyes kept turning, the thief's head and thief's brain looked around, revealing a thief's weak heart, there were eight or nine black tentacles on each side of the back edge of the nose, and it continued to tremble as it moved, and the two furry ears were erected high, as if to probe the surrounding movements, and the two short forefeet under the body fell on the tree one after another, slightly smart, if there was no round belly, it would look more clever.

Li Ji didn't know if the wood brown rat had found out, maybe he had found out, but he automatically chose to ignore him. Li Ji, who had already been ignored many times, had already adapted to this "humiliation", and even used it as an incentive and some kind of advantage, so that he could be unprepared for the demonic beasts that despised him. Surprise attacks are often easier to succeed if they are unprepared, at least Li Ji himself has suffered a lot of losses without defense, and he knows this very well.

After hesitating, Li Ji still decided to try the reaction of this second-level wood brown rat, even if he is not injured now, he can't start the battle lightly, but unlike the previous times, this time there is a young beast by his side, if the second-level wood brown rat really fights back, then he will push the young beast out to block the gun, anyway, the young beast also said that it doesn't care about the magic attack of the wood brown rat.

Li Ji easily found a small stone under his feet, measured the feeling with his hand, and then raised his hand to charge his strength and threw it towards the second-level wood brown rat.

"Whoosh"

Even if Li Ji didn't start the blood rage, and he was injured and couldn't do his best, his physical strength had improved a lot since he had cultivated to this point, and it was still okay to throw a stone.

The flying stone failed to hit the wood brown rat as Li Ji wanted, but grazed the two positions on the right side of the wood brown rat, and I don't know if the poor throwing accuracy was because Li Ji was injured or he couldn't do it in the first place, anyway, Li Ji, who saw the result, blamed the blame on his injury.

The thrown stone failed to hit the wood brown rat, but the sound of the stone disturbed it.

I saw that when the stone flew over the side of the second-level wood brown rat, it was still very quiet and stood up in shock, and its two eyes widened and froze for a moment in an instant, looking shocked. Then, as if to react, he suddenly screamed, and fled in the opposite direction from which the stone shot without looking back.

The second-level wood brown rat dragged a round belly, climbed and jumped flexibly on the tree, and its tail nearly half a meter long behind it was tightly clamped, like a discovered thief, regardless of the life-threatening rush, he escaped from Li Ji's sight in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this unexpected scene, Li Ji was directly dumbfounded, the young beast did say that the wood brown rat was timid, and he was mentally prepared for it, but this result still shocked him, this is the most timid demonic beast he has encountered since he came to this world, and it is also a second-level wood-attribute demonic beast that he may not be able to beat.

"Is this the legendary cowardly mouse?" asked Li Ji in surprise.

After being stunned for a while, Li Ji still couldn't accept this fact, how could a second-level demonic beast be scared away by a stone so undignified? This made Li Ji's worldview that he had established after coming to this strange world have some signs of collapse, which made it difficult for him to accept. Li Ji didn't think that with his own strength, he could scare a second-level demonic beast into collapse without a fight, and flee from the wind, he hadn't been narcissistic to this extent. However, after looking at the young beast with an unmoved face, Li Ji shifted the object of suspicion to it.

"Did you confiscate your breath and scare it away?" asked Li Ji, looking at the young beast.

"No, I've always had a restrained breath, and I didn't let it find me, it was its own cowardice, and it was scared away by you. ”

"Really? Is it so daring?"

Li Ji still didn't believe it, but the young beast was convincing, and it had never lied, so he had to believe it. However, in this way, Li Ji came to the conclusion that the guts of the second-level wood brown rat were indeed too small to be guts. It simply refreshed his outlook on life.

I wanted to test the attack method of the second-level wood brown rat, but I didn't expect to scare it away, and Li Ji's plan also failed.

The road ahead was still overgrown with weeds and vines, and the time was not early, Li Ji glanced at the direction of the departure of the wood brown rat that had long since disappeared, sighed, and said to the young beast under his feet: "Let's go!"

The young beast didn't know why Li Ji sighed, in the eyes of it, which laughed when it was happy and cried when it was sad, sighing was too complicated for it to understand. Therefore, it was not so sentimental and obediently ran to the front to lead the way. And Li Ji began a difficult journey to open the way.

After walking for a while, the silent Li Ji's brows suddenly furrowed, he thought of what the young beast had said just now about the hidden aura, which made him a little inexplicably uneasy, and he felt as if he was always being watched by the beasts, and he couldn't calm down until he clarified the doubts in his heart.

"Wait, you just said that the second-level wood brown rat can hide its aura, does that mean that all demonic beasts can hide their aura?especially those high-level demonic beasts?" In the end, Li Ji still couldn't bear it, and raised the question that bothered him in his heart.

The young beast leading the way in front of him stopped when he heard this, and replied, "Yes!"

Hearing the young beast's affirmative answer, Li Ji suddenly became nervous, and his eyes couldn't stop looking around, just like the second-level wood brown mouse just now, looking extremely uncalm.

"In other words, if a demonic beast hides its aura and approaches us, you won't be able to find out, right?" Li Ji asked in a hurried tone as he stared at the young beast.

"Yes and no. ”

"What do you mean? yes or no? You name it. The young beast's ambiguous answer made the uneasy Li Ji almost go berserk.

"Even if a demonic beast with a lower level than me or the same level as me hides its aura, as long as it moves, I can still find a little bit of it, unless it is a demonic beast that is particularly good at hiding or the corresponding attribute elements are strong, it is difficult for me to find their traces. For example, the second-level wood brown rat just now, it was because of the strong wood attribute elements on the tree that I couldn't find it, if it was in a cave, no matter how it hid its breath, I could find it. ”

Listening to what the young beast said, although Li Ji's doubts were partially dissolved, the part he was most concerned about had not yet been resolved.

"Then if there is a wind wolf or a higher-level demonic beast with a constricting aura than you hiding nearby, can you spot it?"

"I don't know about this, maybe it can or maybe it can't, it depends on the situation. If it's a level 4 or lower wind wolf, I can spot it, and if it's a level 5 wind wolf and a demonic beast, and they move carefully or slowly, then I probably won't be able to spot it. The young beast said quite matter-of-factly, not thinking about what kind of psychological blow it would cause to Li Ji after hearing this.

"Then aren't we in danger now? I don't even know when we're going to be the prey?" Hearing this news that couldn't be more bad, Li Ji suddenly became calm. Until then, he had always thought that the young beast would always be the first to spot the enemy, and that he would always be in an active position, and that he would have time to think about dealing with danger. I never thought that now the young beast gave a negative answer, it turned out that I had been playing with the young beast before.

"Not necessarily, no demonic beast will always hide its breath, that will consume spiritual power, although the loss is very small, but no demonic beast will continue to do this, generally speaking, it will hide its breath when it perceives danger or finds prey, and their breath has not been hidden before this. And after hiding the breath, if the action is too big, it will still leak a little. My current sensing range is no worse than that of an ordinary fourth-level demonic beast, and it is very difficult for the enemy to approach us within this range without leaking his breath, at least ordinary demonic beasts do not have that patience. Besides, I have a Holy Rank Demon Core here, so I don't have to be afraid of demonic beasts below level six at all. ”

Li Ji had just been nervously tensed by the young beast, as if he was already under siege, and now when he heard it explain, he relaxed in an instant. He already had a certain understanding of the level of Warcraft, and he still knew the rarity of the Saint-rank Warcraft, and he didn't believe that his luck would be so bad that he would encounter an ambush by the Saint-level Warcraft. However, just now, the young beast only seemed to have said that it could deal with demonic beasts below level six, and it didn't seem to include sixth-level demonic beasts.

"Then what if it's a sixth-level demonic beast?"

"Sixth-level demonic beasts generally don't look down on third-level prey like me, they usually only hunt fourth- or fifth-level demonic beasts, of course, some will also attack the same level. Although I can't deal with the sixth-level demonic beast now, as long as I am promoted to the fourth-level, with the Holy Rank Demon Core, I can barely save my life under the sixth-level Demonic Beast, of course, the premise is that it is not a sixth-level fire attribute demonic beast, otherwise it will be desperate to grab the Holy Rank Demon Core. ”

When the young beast was talking about the sixth-level demonic beast, it naturally ignored Li Ji, thinking about it, it also knew that the sixth-level demonic beasts of others did not look down on his two taels of meat, but this was not Li Ji's current focus, he was concerned about why only the sixth-level fire attribute demonic beasts would desperately snatch the holy rank demon core.

"Then the sixth-level demonic beasts of other attributes won't rob your Saint-rank Demon Core?"

"Other sixth-level demonic beasts will also grab them, but if they can't grab them, they will give up, unlike the sixth-level demonic beasts of the fire attribute who are as desperate. ”

"Why? Do they know that eating this Saint-Order Demon Core will explode and die?"

"Of course, the sixth-level demonic beasts are the closest to the holy level of the demonic beasts, of course they have some understanding of the promotion to the holy level, although the demonic beasts below the holy level have no inheritance memory, but after reaching the sixth level, they will know that the holy level is different from the existence of the first to the sixth level, and the magic power contained in the holy rank demon core is more refined and larger, and they know that if they swallow the holy order demon core that is different from their own attributes, they will explode and die."

The doubts were lifted, but Li Ji still didn't dare to be careless, and now it was approaching dusk, Li Ji hurriedly urged the young beast to lead the way, and strive to rush back to the cave as soon as possible.

Half an hour later, Li Ji and the young beast both returned to the cave safely, and there was no danger on the way that he feared. Moreover, the shortcut found by the young beast was indeed much faster than the original one, which saved him a lot of time.
