Chapter 8: Frostbloom and the Nether Beast
"Dude has something to discuss, why bother to do it, right! In this vast desert, it is a kind of fate to be able to meet, although it is ...... I rode you, but, not doing that kind of thing. It's a beautiful misunderstanding, I'm just trying to catch the Hidden Sandmon. Li Qiang said as he argued and stepped back.
"Hehe, I was about to catch the Hidden Sand Beast, but you came to make trouble." The man sneered.
Li Qiang licked his lips and said; "Why don't you kick me and we'll be evened?" Looking at the other party, he was sure in his heart that this thing was definitely not a person with strength and ability.
"Hehehe, a crystal nucleus that can be made up by kicking you?" The man sneered again in response.
"It seems that this fight is not going to be fought." Li Qiang said helplessly.
"My name is Shuanghua, report your name, I don't fight nobodies." The man named Frost Hua snorted coldly.
Li Qiang smiled and said; "What a coincidence, how do you know my name is Nameless, it seems that you don't need to beat me." After speaking, he smiled and looked really like a thing.
"Fart!"
Shuanghua saw that Li Qiang was still teasing him now, and suddenly his face became even colder, and the index finger of his right hand was raised a little.
"Frozen Ray!"
Hmph, a frost ray rushed towards Li Qiang, the speed was so fast, like a straight cold snake suddenly attacking, Sen Sen's cold air kept coming out, and even the sand and dust in the air froze.
"It's an elemental powerhouse!" Li Qiang exclaimed.
There are only a few people out of a thousand people, and he really met him.
It's time to buy a welfare lottery ticket.
"It's not good, they're the ones who are capable of fighting." The man in the lead exclaimed, his face changed.
"Everyone, get out of the way."
Immediately, the gold diggers immediately retreated more than ten meters, for fear of being affected by the battle between the two.
"Frost Hua, let's have something to discuss." Li Qiang's body was short, avoiding the freezing rays, and then quickly approached the frost flower.
He's a melee ability, and if it's too far, he'll be killed by a mage, ah no, it's an elemental ability.
"The cold is wanton!"
Whew, a stream of cold air spread from under Shuanghua's feet, and in an instant, a thin layer of ice began to form on the ground. However, as soon as he finished it, his complexion changed, and he didn't feel good.
"Rub it, I forgot that this is a desert, and it's useless to let it out. The Bichi on the opposite side looks like a person with strength and ability, and he will be crushed with one kick. Moreover, in the desert, my energy consumption is several times that of normal times. Shuanghua said with hatred in her heart.
"Oh no, it's ice."
Li Qiang's complexion changed suddenly, but because the speed was too fast, his body was leaning forward, so when the center was unstable, both feet had already stepped on it, and he felt that he was going to be tragic. But...... As soon as he stepped down, Li Qiang felt that his worries were superfluous, this ice was only the thickness of the sole of his shoe, and as soon as he stepped on it, it shattered directly.
"I'm blinded, the desert is not water, no matter how much it freezes, it is still fragile." Li Qiang's heart was overjoyed, and his self-confidence suddenly came up, his energy burst from his heart, his right hand was suddenly raised, and immediately, he slapped it towards the ground, and there was a bang, and the ice surface with frost was suddenly all shattered into powder.
Then, he took a few big strides, and came to the front of Shuanghua, pressed his left hand, and the one-handed axe was pulled out in an instant, and immediately, the cold light flashed, and it was directly placed on the other party's neck, if it was closer, then it would inevitably bleed. However, if you look closely, you will know that Li Qiang's left hand holding the axe is trembling, and he is instinctively resisting.
"You lose, accept it or not!" Li Qiang gritted his teeth and said.
Shuanghua looked at Li Qiang and smiled coldly and said; "I ...... Serve!"
Ah......
This made the crowd almost kneeling on the ground.
That's it?
I thought it was so earth-shattering, who knows, it only took more than a minute for the two to finish fighting. This makes everyone regret it, but they can't help but have a trace of fanaticism and admiration for the capable.
"Ahem... Both of them are capable people, so let's stop arguing with each other, let's see...... It's not good to hurt anyone. The leader coughed and smacked his lips, and the melon seeds ran down the saliva into his throat.
"Let's go, the ruins of the second station are almost here." The leader clapped his hands and called back everyone's gaze and said loudly.
After the battle just now, the two were more wary of it, so they walked side by side.
While walking, Li Qiang felt thirsty, so he opened the kettle and drank a sip of cyan liquid, then pondered for a while, stretched out his hand, handed the kettle to Shuanghua, and said with a smile; "I'm sorry, it's actually my fault, I see you're very thirsty, drink some water."
Shuanghua looked at Li Qiang coldly, and then swallowed his saliva.
However, the moisture in the kettle made him lick his lips again. In the end, he really didn't resist the temptation, glared at Li Qiang, and then took the kettle and took a sip gently.
"It's rubbing, it's still the thigh juice of a big grasshopper, it's so bitter." After taking a sip, Shuanghua couldn't help but vomit, but he did consume some energy in his body just now, so he held back, and then swallowed it with difficulty.
"Drink it slowly, it's so bitter, it's not as good as the juice squeezed from herbs." He took a deep breath and said disdainfully.
Li Qiang took it back without care, took another sip, and chuckled; "It's not as rare and rare as you, elemental powerhouse. Presumably, the family must be wealthy. It's like me, the poor people even got their gas masks from the military. After saying that, he smiled again as if self-deprecating.
"It's a rub, what's wrong with the big road, my dad is not the same and has not inherited the family's bloodline, he is a person of strength and ability!" Shuanghua was stunned, and then patted Li Qiang's shoulder and comforted.
"You mean, the one with the power is your father?" Li Qiang showed a wicked smile.
Shuanghua was stunned for a moment and nodded; "Yes...... Huh?"
That is to say...... I'm you... Ahem. Li Qiang sneered.
"A rub, you big blue pool, I'll be your uncle." Shuanghua suddenly became angry, and raised his foot and kicked Li Qiang.
But Li Qiang didn't care, but laughed.
Shuanghua glanced at Li Qiang, and couldn't help laughing.
In this way, the relationship between the two was eased. Then, following behind the leader, the team finally came to the ruins of the second station.
As for why it's called the second station?
That's because the name of this place is Second Station......
When the team arrives here, it's basically going to break up. Everyone is also you look at me, I look at you, and finally sighed helplessly, and then walked towards the ruined city. A few of them stood there and wept. As soon as Li Qiang inquired, he learned that the person killed by the Hidden Sand Beast in the wind just now was their cousin.
"Alas...... It's a long way to live!" Li Qiang sighed, and then walked towards the storage place.
Who knew that before he had taken two steps, there was a sound of footsteps behind him, and when he looked back, it turned out to be Shuanghua.
"What are you doing with me! Don't have a place to go?" Li Qiang asked.
Shuanghua looked at Li Qiangdao through the gas mask; "Just by the way, don't think too much, let's go."
Li Qiang nodded.
The ruins of World War II belong to the edge of the desert ruins, which are basically surrounded by major powers. For example, the Academy, and the Martial Arts Hall, as well as the Gold Digger Alliance, and the Adventurer Organization.
A wanderer like Li Qiang can only avoid their sphere of influence.
"Attention, there's a Nether Beast there." Shuanghua stretched out his hand to stop Li Qiang.
Nethermon!
Li Qiang recalled it and suddenly understood. In this ruin, there are many mutated demon beasts, the most common and threatening of which is this demon beast called Nether Beast. They can change their color to be exactly like their surroundings, in fact, they are the evolution of a chameleon. Because it kills people invisibly from time to time, it is called a demon beast that can enter the netherworld.
"How do you know where it is?" Li Qiang asked suspiciously.
You know, Nether Beasts are demon beasts that won't appear as long as they don't move. Until now, Li Qiang had only learned about the location of the Nether Beast through the guidance of Frost Hua. However, he could find out without knowing it, which really stunned Li Qiang.
"Hmph, I'm an elemental powerhouser." Shuanghua glared at Li Qiang with her chin high, and then raised her right hand.
Li Qiang took a closer look, and it turned out to be the fingertips of his five fingers, and wisps of cold air kept coming out, like a big net, distributed out, and then shrunk back. As a result, it is possible to find out where the Netherbeast is. No wonder he could have caught the Hidden Sandmon.
"Awesome." Li Qiang gave him a thumbs up.
"You flank him from the left, I'll set up the skate on his right side to make him show his form, and then you kill it." Shuanghua said softly, and immediately, his body was short, and he walked towards a collapsed gate not far away.
"Sister, the ADC is amazing!" Li Qiang took a deep breath, took out his hand axe, bent his waist, and followed Shuanghua towards the gate.
"The Web of Ice."
After approaching, Shuanghua immediately snorted softly, raised his right hand and leaned towards the upper left corner of the door, five fingers kept shaking, and in an instant, the crystal clear cold air net immediately rose into the air and covered it.
"Whew."
Something seems to be frightened.
A vague shadow immediately flashed in Li Qiang's eyes, jumping in his direction at an extremely fast speed.
"Ice skating."
As if she had known it for a long time, as soon as she stepped on the ground with her left foot, the cold air spread out, covering a five-meter-long skate on the ground.
"Tsk."
A panicked voice sounded, and immediately a gray thing appeared on the skate.
Li Qiang saw the opportunity, jumped up suddenly, and slashed down at the Nether Beast with his hand axe. And due to the excessive strength, the axe blade flashed with blood, and it was directly chopped on the ground, and with a click, even the ground was cut out of an axe mark.
Immediately, the true body of the Nether Beast was revealed.
Li Qiang observed carefully, this Nether Beast was about half the size of a human, covered in brown skin, and hairless, extremely smooth. But if you look at the subtleties, you can see that there are many tiny particles in the skin. Its head is indistinguishable from that of a chameleon.
"It's a good fit, but I found the Nether Beast, so the crystal nucleus is mine." Frost Hua nodded and said with satisfaction.
"I ...... You're an adc, you're awesome. Li Qiang sighed helplessly.
