Chapter 42, The Ancient Battlefield
After dark, everyone sat on the rock walls on both sides of the valley with their backs to sleep, and they did not know if they had eaten the fruit that resisted the poisonous mist of the rotten flowers, and several people did not feel hungry or thirsty.
The next day, Lin Luxian and the others walked in the canyon for a few more hours, and the canyon in front of them began to widen, and the further they went, the more open they became. In the end, the width of the canyon ahead was fixed at about fifty or sixty meters. Not long after they walked in the wide canyon, they saw that the road ahead was blocked by rocks. These rocks of different sizes were piled up nearly ten meters high, like a small mountain range, blocking the road more than fifty meters wide, leaving no gaps.
"It's not going to bother us, we're ready to climb up the rocks, and we're going to climb over it. Zhu Xinyan said
After everyone had climbed to the top of the pile of rocks, a strong wind suddenly blew in front of them, and the sound of fighting and the clashing of various weapons could be faintly heard in the wind, and of course, all kinds of howls of pain.
After carefully climbing over the pile of rocks, everyone saw a huge brown thing lying not far away. Everyone tightened their grip on their weapons and approached the brown thing carefully. When they got closer, they saw that lying on the ground was a giant monster covered in brown hair, curled up on the ground with hands and feet. Although its head was blocked by its hands, it was observed that it had four curved horns on its head. The monster was nearly two meters tall when it was lying on the ground, and if it stood up, it would be at least ten meters tall. And around this monster, there are still a few corpses lying bones, and next to the bones, there are also some weapons scattered around. The strangest thing about these bones is that they are all wearing the same golden armor as the waterfall!
"Look, these corpses are wearing the same armor as me!" Norito shouted excitedly
"Nothing, be quiet, maybe this monster is still alive?" Zhu Xinyan dragged the waterfall
"These dead people should be the soldiers of the Zhongtian God Clan. Xiao said
"They won't all be killed by this monster, right?" Lin Luxian asked Xiao in a low voice
Xiao said, "If these Protoss soldiers are all killed by this monster, then this monster is too powerful! Whether it's dead or not, we'd better not disturb it, let's go around." ”
Everyone circled the monster, cautiously and slowly advanced from the edge of the cliff, but just as everyone had just bypassed the monster and was about to slip away, the monster suddenly woke up! It smelled the scent of people! The monster slowly stood up and let out a low gasp. Its full picture was finally seen by Lin Luxian and them. The monster had a lion-like face, which had many scars, and its right eye was blind, which was supposed to have been left by the bitter war. And it has a lion-like tail behind it. At this moment, it was staring at Lin Luxian and the others with murderous blood-colored pupils, and its nose kept moving, smelling the scent of Lin Luxian and the others.
When they saw the whole picture of the monster, everyone remembered it! It is recorded in the "Mystery of Things" that there is an ancient giant beast with a lion's head and four horns, and when it stands nearly ten meters high, it is a scimitar-horned lion! The scimitar-horned lion is extremely powerful, muscular, and covered with brown hair all over its body, and it is naturally ferocious. Since scimitar-horned lions often appear near the territory of the demons, the demons have controlled all the scimitar-horned lions and thrown them into the battlefield in the war with the Protoss. Due to the addition of a large number of scimitar-horned lions, in the war with the demons, although the Protoss narrowly won in the end, the Protoss themselves suffered heavy casualties, killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 themselves. And this war is more than a hundred years after Yun Tianxun disappeared after being slashed by the secret chaos, in order to avenge Yun Tianxun, the Protoss surrounded and suppressed the remnants of the demon clan hidden in a certain Grand Canyon.
Seeing the scimitar-horned lion wake up, Dianpu hurriedly shouted, "Everyone run!" and then everyone ran forward desperately to escape the scimitar-horned lion. Seeing a few people running forward, the scimitar-horned lion hurriedly chased after it with a big stride, it ran more than a dozen steps and then jumped forward, jumping out of more than 20 meters away! In front of Lin Luxian and the others, it turned around and forced Lin Luxian and the others to retreat again and again, until it retreated to the stone pile behind it.
Seeing that Lin Luxian and the others began to climb up the stone pile, the scimitar-horned lion stood firm on his feet, opened his big mouth, and let out a high-pitched and loud roar. The decibels of the roar were quite loud and deafening, and it spread for several kilometers in the vicinity! Some small stones on the cliff wall were also shocked by the roar and fell one after another. Lin Luxian and the others couldn't bear the high pitch, so they all covered their ears and rolled down from the stone pile. Lan Bingyun, who was flying in the air, also covered his ears and fell from the sky. Even Xiao, who was stealthy and wanted to get close to the scimitar-horned lion, appeared from his stealth state, kneeling on the ground and covering his ears vigorously, with a painful expression.
Seeing that everyone was covering their ears in pain and losing the ability to resist, the scimitar-horned lion stopped roaring, strode forward and picked up Zhu Xinyan, who was closest to it, and then opened his mouth wide, wanting to eat her!
Seeing the waterfall rushing towards him, the scimitar-horned lion kicked a lantern-sized stone at his feet at the waterfall. Dianpu quickly raised the long axe and smashed the big stones that flew over, and the axe of Dianwaterfall was also broken into two with a crisp sound! It seems that as I said before, the axe of Dianwaterfall was corroded by the water of the underground palace pond, and now, the life of this axe has come to an end!
Dian Pu looked at the half-iron rod in his hand and was stunned, the last thing he wanted to happen happened at such a critical juncture!
The scimitar-horned lion continued to bring the Zhu Xinyan in his hand close to his mouth, and just as it was about to bite Zhu Xinyan, its right foot felt a tingling pain, and it couldn't help but put down the Zhu Xinyan in its hand. It turned out that Ao Yi had quietly walked behind it and stabbed it in the right foot. The scimitar-horned lion quickly raised his right foot and kicked Ao Yi more than ten meters away. Ao Yi, who was kicked away, fell heavily to the ground, she only felt severe pain all over her body, and she couldn't move, as if the bones in her whole body were shattered.
Zhu Xinyan came to his senses and crawled hard at the feet of the scimitar-horned lion. The scimitar-horned lion lowered its head, picked up Zhu Xinyan again, and then opened its mouth to bite Zhu Xinyan, and at this moment, another stone the size of a goose egg was hit on its head. Not far away, Lin Luxian was on top of the stone pile, constantly throwing stones at the scimitar-horned lion. The scimitar-horned lion roared angrily, threw Zhu Xinyan aside in his hand, and then ran straight towards Lin Luxian! Dian Pu hurriedly took off the moire sword on his back, and then rushed towards the scimitar-horned lion with the big sword in both hands.
Seeing that the waterfall rushed over again, the scimitar-horned lion kicked the ground, kicking all the stones and sand on the ground towards the waterfall. Dianpu hurriedly blocked the sand with his big sword, but by the time he put it down, the scimitar-horned lion had already run in front of him. The scimitar-horned lion kicked again, and the waterfall was kicked back seven or eight meters away, and fell to the ground. At this time, Lan Bingyun also flew again, and she went around the back of the scimitar-horned lion, and aimed at the head of the scimitar-horned with a sword, which only scratched a little of the scimitar-horned lion's skin. The scimitar-horned lion turned around and reached out to grab Lan Bingyun, who hurriedly flew away to dodge. Seeing that there was another one that could fly, the scimitar-horned lion opened its mouth again, trying to roar Lan Bingyun down with a high pitch, but before it could make a sound, its left foot was stabbed by Xiao behind it again.
After the sneak attack succeeded, Xiao hurriedly ran away, and shouted, "It has already hit one of my spears, everyone is holding on for a while!
At this time, the scimitar-horned lion was already quite violent, and it kicked away the waterfall that had just risen in front of it again, and then rushed to the bottom of the stone pile in three or two steps, wanting to catch Lin Luxian on the top of the stone pile! Seeing this, Lin Luxian quickly turned around and rolled down from the top of the stone pile with a scream. The scimitar-horned lion leaped to the top of the pile. Looking at Lin Luxian who was fleeing, it lifted a large stone the size of a tricycle at its feet and threw it towards Lin Luxian!
Lan Bingyun reminded Lin Luxian in the air, "Lu Xian, lower your head!" Lin Luxian turned his head and saw a huge stone thrown towards him, he was so frightened that his legs weakened and he collapsed to the ground! As the big rock passed over his head and brushed past his hair, he was stunned, and his mind went blank for a moment.
Lan Bingyun hurriedly landed from the air, helped the stunned Lin Luxian up from the ground, and then flew into the air with him in his arms. Because of holding an individual, Lan Bingyun is not flexible in flying, and he can't fly high. And the scimitar-horned lion didn't plan to give up, he kept picking up the big stones at his feet and throwing them at Lan Bingyun and Lin Luxian in the air. Lan Bingyun also dodged left and right in the air, sometimes high and sometimes low, and it didn't take long for her to feel powerless and sweaty.
On the other side of the stone pile, Zhu Xinyan and Dian Waterfall had slowly climbed up from the ground, and Xiao also helped Ao Yi up from the ground.
Lan Bingyun hugged Lin Luxian, and had to dodge the big stone thrown by the scimitar-horned lion below, she couldn't hold Lin Luxian steady, and her heart was beating faster, and her whole body was sore... But she also felt that the stone thrown by the scimitar-horned lion was getting farther and farther away from her, and it seemed that at this time, the poison on the blade of the spear had begun to attack, and the scimitar-horned lion had been throwing stones to consume physical strength, which would accelerate the onset of the poison in its body.
Gradually, the scimitar-horned lion standing on the stone pile no longer threw stones into the air, but lay on the stone pile and gasped for breath.
"Good time!" quietly touched the scimitar-horned lion's back and stabbed it in the back again.
The scimitar-horned lion hurriedly stood up, turned around and smashed a swing fist at Xiao, who quickly lowered his head to dodge. Not only did the scimitar-horned lion's punch smash into the air, but due to the inertia of the punch, it failed to stand on its feet, leaned forward, and rolled off the rocks. The scimitar-horned lion that rolled to the ground shook its head, trying to get to its senses and get up from the ground. But Zhu Xinyan didn't give it this chance, and she used her pyromancy to scorch the scimitar-horned lion that wanted to get up. The scimitar-horned lion's whole body was ignited by the flames, and it rolled on the ground in pain, trying to extinguish the fire on its body. After a tumbling session, the flames on the scimitar-horned lion had been extinguished, and the blackened scimitar-horned lion was paralyzed from exhaustion, gasping for breath on its back and unable to move anymore.
"The toxicity in its body has set in, and it is going to die. Xiao said
"It should be painful to be poisoned, let me end its pain! It almost didn't kick me to death with those two feet just now!" Dian Waterfall stepped on the chest of the scimitar-horned lion, and thrust the big sword in his hand with both hands! A stream of green blood shot out and splashed him. Then, the scimitar-horned lion slowly closed its eyes as well.
Seeing that the scimitar-horned lion was dead, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground panting for breath.
Zhu Xinyan said to Lin Luxian, "Ao Yi's left arm seems to be broken, and it hurts when you touch it, go and take a look." ”
After Lin Luxian healed Ao Yi's arm, everyone was almost rested. Everyone began to move forward again.
Within a few minutes of walking, more and more bones appeared on the ground in front of them, as many as a thousand. Some of the bones were dressed in red and black armor, while others were dressed in gold armor. And on the ground, there are also a lot of weapons scattered around.
Dian Pu picked up a two-handed big sword on the ground, and flipped it in his hand, "This sword is so light! It's only less than half the weight of my sword, I don't know how to use it?" Then, he picked up the big sword and slashed it hard against the rock wall, and the big sword slashed into the rock wall, and it took a lot of effort for Dian Waterfall to pull out this big sword.
"So sharp, so light! Good sword!" Dian Pu looked at the big sword with dragon scales tattooed in his hand, and praised endlessly.
"This should be the dragon scale greatsword used by the Protoss soldiers. The weapons of the Protoss are made of the unique divine iron of the Protoss, which is lightweight, sharp, strong, and rust-proof, and is the best material in the entire Liaozhou Continent. Xiao said
"Great! I want this sword! This sword is much lighter than my original sword, and it can save a lot of physical strength when you use it. Hearing this, Dian Pu couldn't put down the dragon scale sword in his hand, and the big sword he was carrying was discarded aside.
"Then I'll find a suitable weapon, I can't always use Ao Yi's sister's weapon. Lan Bingyun said
After looking around, Lan Bingyun found a bow with a white peacock painted on it. The bow was made of wood, and it didn't feel much weight in your hand, like Zhu Xinyan's staff. Lan Bingyun didn't use much force to pull the bowstring, and when the bowstring was pulled to a certain angle, a golden arrow suddenly appeared on the bowstring! Arrows shot into the rock wall. When Lan Bingyun pulled the bowstring in his hand again, the arrow shot at the rock wall disappeared in an instant, and returned to the bowstring in Lan Bingyun's hand.
"This bow is amazing! An arrow can be used repeatedly without a quiver!" Zhu Xinyan said enviously
"Such a good white peacock bow should be equipped only by the commander of the Protoss soldiers. Xiao continued
Seeing Lan Bingyun pick up a big treasure, Lin Luxian was not far behind! He searched around and found a rectangular shield, the shield was about one meter long and about seventy centimeters wide, and there was a dragon head tattooed on the shield, and the weight was also very light, but two or three catties. Lin Luxian took the shield in front of Xiao and said, "Master, can you also give me this treasure to taste?"
Xiao took the shield in his hand and observed it for a while, and said, "This dragon pattern shield is not bad, it is also made of the divine iron of the god clan, it must be extremely strong and unbreakable." ”
Hearing Xiao say this, Lin Luxian said happily, "Okay, I'll use this shield in the future, other weapons are too difficult for me to master, or this shield is simple!"
Zhu Xinyan said to Ao Yi, "Sister Ao Yi, there are so many good weapons of the Protoss here, don't you pick some? If you miss this village, you won't have that store in the future!"
Ao Yi shook his head, "It's still not necessary, my pair of swords were left to me by my father, and they are memorable." Besides, my pair of sparkles is also made by the treasures of the Gathering Sea, which are no worse than the weapons of the Protoss!"
"It's good now, even Lin Luxian, who is powerless, has a shield, so our next road should be a lot easier. Dianpu said
"It's a good thing to have good weapons, but, do you feel that your stomachs are protesting?" After Lin Luxian finished speaking, except for Xiao, everyone felt hungry, and their stomachs kept screaming.
