Things turned out to be as Howard said, and on the way after that, there were constantly demonic beasts attacking, and the speed of the team slowed down because of this.

Howard's father and son went one after the other, carefully guarding against the attack of the monster. Suddenly, a red figure appeared in the ground on the right, and then, shooting at Andrew at a rapid pace. Before Andrew could make a move, Howard slammed him to death with a giant shield.

"This is a first-level demonic beast fire-breathing poisonous scorpion, which is one of the most common demonic beasts on the grassland, capable of spewing poisonous fire from a meter away. It's not very toxic, but if it's accidentally pricked, it's enough for people to drink a pot. The best weapon for it is the Great Shield. ”

After shooting the fire-breathing scorpion to death, Howard introduces Andrew to him.

Andrew listened attentively, these were extremely valuable experiences, if it weren't for father and son, who would have the patience to tell him this.

Soon, another fire-breathing scorpion appeared, and Howard did not move this time, obviously depending on Andrew's performance.

Andrew was not stunned, the long knife flashed, and a meter away, the half-foot-long fiery red scorpion split into two and fell to the ground. This knife is fast and steady, showing Andrew's deep foundation. When Howard saw this, his eyes lit up and he was very appreciative, but he didn't say anything in his mouth.

The fire-breathing scorpion is a low-level magical beast that is numerous, but the threat is not great. Within five miles, Andrew had killed more than thirty of them. It's a pity that its level is too low, it doesn't form a magic core, and it doesn't have any magic materials on it that can be used.

"Be careful, this is a second-level demonic beast devouring earth snake!"

Andrew relaxed slightly, and was detoured behind him by an earthy yellow figure, and then, Howard's voice came, and he hurriedly dodged.

Howard raised his shield and smashed it down, causing a large crater to appear in the ground next to him. In the pit, an earthy yellow snake more than a meter long was writhing wildly, burrowing into the ground, and in the blink of an eye, half of its body had already sunk into the earth.

Andrew was angry in his heart, he was actually attacked by a second-level demonic beast, it was too much of a failure. He took two steps forward, and with a wave of his sword, the earth-devouring snake was cut in two without resistance, and it seemed that it could not survive.

Howard didn't say anything, and with a shovel of the giant shield, the other half of the snake's body was dug out. With a slight effort, the giant shield smashed the snake's head, revealing a yellow crystal the size of a bean. Andrew hurriedly picked it up and took a closer look.

"Is this the Core?" He asked, this was the first time he had seen the Core.

Howard nodded: "It's just the lowest grade magic core, it's not worth much, it's only worth a few gold coins." ”

Andrew is not surprised that the magic core of the second-level demonic beast can be valuable, he just looks fresh.

However, this incident left a deep impression on him, and from then on, he did not dare to be careless.

The team was attacked by demonic beasts, stopped and stopped, and in the afternoon of the same day, they finally arrived at the final destination - the Cree tribe.

The Cree tribe is composed of barbarians living on the edge of the steppes of the Far East, and it is not large, and the entire tribe is no more than 200 people. Barbarians and humans are very similar in appearance, they are naturally strong and physically strong, and with a little training, they can become intermediate warriors. However, their talent for fighting spirit and magic is not as good as that of humans.

The things to trade are also very simple, and the team is full of daily necessities, broken promises, cloth, magic paraphernalia, and so on. The barbarians took out the demon core, the corpses of some monsters. Both sides took what they needed and completed the transaction happily.

Andrew was bored watching from the sidelines, said a word to Howard, and left, wandering somewhere else. He mainly wanted to learn a long time and hone himself by the way.

Although the barbarian tribe is small in number, its strength is not low. According to Andrew's observation, the adult males here are at least fourth-level warriors, and there are also many fifth- and sixth-level warriors. Even those children, many of them have strength above level three.

"Boy, are you a weak human?" Andrew was wandering around when three barbarian children stopped him.

Andrew stopped and said with a smile: "Yes, I am a human being, but I am not necessarily weaker than you. ”

When the three of them heard this, they became furious, and one of the barbarians, with four cyan ripples painted on his face, walked out, pointed his hand at Andrew's chest, and said provocatively: "Human beings are all weak things, do you dare to compare with me?" ”

Andrew knew very well that this person had four blue marks drawn, which meant that he was a fourth-level warrior. At the same level, the barbarians are stronger than the humans. However, Andrew is not afraid of him either. He took off his long knife and said aloud, "Okay, then let's compare." However, how are you going to compare? ”

The barbarian boy was stunned: "How can you compare?" ”

Andrew explained: "There are many kinds of competitions, comparing strength, martial arts, and weapons, which one do you choose?" ”

The barbarian boy laughed twice, patted his chest, and made a thumping sound.

"What strength do humans have, I'm a good man of the Cree tribe, how can I bully you. It's not interesting to compete in martial arts, so let's compare weapons. ”

Andrew looked at him and said secretly, this man looks silly, but in fact he is very shrewd. If he competes with strength, even if he wins, he has nothing to be proud of. If you compete in martial arts, how can a barbarian with a tendon compare to a human. Only by comparing weapons can he show his strength.

"Okay, if you say it's a weapon, it's a weapon."

The two of them made such a fuss, and soon attracted the attention of others. Soon, people from Maple Grove and the Cree tribe gathered around, and they were also interested in the competition. In this world where martial arts are prevalent, competitions are also common.

Howard stood in the middle of the crowd and looked at Andrew with a blank expression. It's impossible to say not to worry. But at this time, the competition has begun, and he can't let his son come down, in that case, his son will probably be looked down upon for the rest of his life.

Andrew took off the broadsword, and the barbarian boy took a black iron rod more than two meters long, which seemed to be quite heavy.

"Human, what's your name?" Before the battle began, the barbarian boy asked.

"Andrew Lance, what about you?"

"Be careful, Baru Kerry, I won't show mercy." Young Balu said loudly.

Andrew is not afraid: "You are the same. ”

……

Not far away, four knights in iron armor and three old men were also paying attention to this competition.

"Great Elder, this Balu is the young patriarch of the Cree tribe." A knight smiled and said to the old man next to him, he was more than two meters tall, holding a knight's spear more than three meters long, and his aura was extremely powerful.

The old man next to him was full of silver hair, and his forehead was also full of wrinkles, and he smiled and said, "Not bad." Captain Clyde, do you think either of them will win? ”

This Captain Clyde is the Knight Captain of the Frey Family, a battle-hardened Rank 7 warrior. He looked at it and said, "In my opinion, that young man probably has a better chance of winning." ”

The Great Elder smiled again: "I think Balu should win, why don't we make a bet." ”

Bet? Clyde was also interested: "What does the Great Elder want to bet on?" ”

The Great Elder said: "This time the Frey family wants the cub of the one-horned clouded leopard, and my Cree tribe has no opinion, after all, although this seventh-level demonic beast is rare, but to cultivate it, the resources consumed are not a few, and the Cree tribe can't afford it." However, the price you offer is a bit too low. If the human boy wins, we will accept the offer of the Frey family, and if Balu wins, you need to raise the price by two percent, what do you think? ”

Clyde also smiled: "Great Elder, this is a bit unfair, if we lose, we will reduce the price, and if we win, we will pay the original price, no matter how you say, you will not lose." ”

The Great Elder thought for a moment and said, "That's it, if you win, the original price will be reduced by one percent, what do you think?" ”

Clyde did not hesitate, and immediately agreed: "Okay, just do what the Great Elder said!" The two high-fived and made a bet.

Next to Clyde, a slightly shorter knight whispered, "Captain, are you sure, the young patriarch of the Cree tribe is a fourth-level warrior." ”

Clyde whispered, "Don't underestimate that human boy, in my opinion, he is at least a fourth-level peak strength now. ”

The knight added, "Even so, he won't necessarily win." In case of losing, it is not easy for the head of the family to explain. ”

Clyde said: "I will definitely win, is that still a bet?" Just watch from the sidelines, the head of the house has me. ”

……

On the field, Andrew and Baloo were also ready.

Balu let out a loud shout, picked up the iron rod and struck it, this stick was quite fast and powerful, and brought a great wind sound.

Unhurried, Andrew raised his long knife and held the iron rod. The people next to him saw it, shook their heads, and discussed: "This young man uses brute force to fight against the barbarians, and he has no chance of winning at all!" "Especially the barbarians of the Cree tribe, some of them are ready to cheer.

Howard also frowned secretly on the side, he often dealt with barbarians, knew that the strength of barbarians was far from being comparable to that of humans, and he was not satisfied with Andrew's response.

On the field, the only ones who could see the way out were the Great Elder and Captain Clyde, both of whom were seventh-level warriors, and it was clear at a glance that Andrew seemed to be fighting hard, but in fact he used ingenuity.

And so it is!

How could Andrew, who knew the strength of the barbarians, fight hard? His knife seems to be direct, but it uses the Tai Chi principle of his previous life, unloading, guiding, and dialing thousands of catties in four or two, and easily dissolves Balu's full blow.

When the long knife was attached to the iron rod, Balu only felt that he could no longer control the direction of the iron rod, and then the iron rod smashed to the ground, half a meter away from Andrew. This result made him a little confused.

When Andrew saw it, he picked up the long knife, and the knife light swept towards Balu's arm, and Balu immediately came to his senses, and the iron rod was horizontal, against the long knife. Andrew was not discouraged, and immediately changed his moves and slashed past, but Balu couldn't dodge it, so he could only give up the iron rod. Andrew stepped forward quickly and kicked the iron rod away.

"Wonderful!" There were voices all around, and everyone was startled by the sudden change.
