Chapter 31: The Salamander Behemoth
"I didn't expect there to be a salamander beast at the bottom of this lake!"
When Zhou Chen emerged from the lake again, he saw a tragic scene. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The salamander giant beast had already climbed ashore and was gnawing on the thunder-spotted tiger, and with the sound of "click", the thunder-spotted tiger's small size was being rapidly eaten.
The middle-aged man and the four-legged bird were no longer visible, but the half-fleshy human arm not far away made Zhou Chen understand what was going on.
As for the middle-aged man's snake scale worm, I'm afraid he fled. Because salamander behemoths don't eat bugs.
"Now, I need to get out of here!"
Zhou Chen swam to the shore of the lake on the other side, far away from the salamander behemoth, carefully trying not to attract its attention.
Crash!
It didn't take long for Zhou Chen to reach the shore and come out of the water with some splashes. He did not dare to stop, still keeping his hands and feet, but he left the small lake area with great speed.
After 20 minutes, Zhou Chen finally reassured, leaned against the trunk of a tree, and began to gasp for air.
"I'm afraid the salamander has already spotted me, but it's almost full enough to chase me. ”
Zhou Chen was a little afraid, although if he didn't gamble this time, it would be difficult for him to escape from the middle-aged man, and the end would probably be death. However, he never imagined that the small lake to the bottom of the lake would be a salamander beast.
Axolotl Behemoth: A giant monster of the scale beast class
Race Rarity Level: C
Race Qualification Levels: Flesh C, Element D, Soul E
Race Attributes: Water (Trait: Neutral), Earth (Trait: Heavy)
Race Talents: None
Monster Introduction: This is a very aggressive monster race, they usually live at the bottom of a lake or in a damp cave, and live on meat, their larvae are only about 10 centimeters in size, but over time, their body length will grow to more than 12 meters.
Zhou Chen deliberately called up the Demon Beast Illustrated Book, carefully examined the information of the salamander giant beast, and had some judgments in his heart.
"That salamander giant beast can easily kill a six-star or so Thunder-Spotted Tiger, which means that it is only a seven-star tiger. I'm afraid it's a powerful individual of its kind. ”
The salamander behemoth's physical qualification is grade C, which can only be considered medium. And with this kind of low qualification, wild individuals who can reach seven-star strength are definitely rare.
"Seven stars, almost a slap on me can seriously hurt me, but luckily I was well prepared. ”
After Zhou Chen jumped into the lake, he kept diving, relying on his underwater skills, as well as the air in the mineral water bottle that he drank most of the time in his backpack, he easily dived to the bottom of the water, and called on his soul power to investigate, and found the location of the salamander giant beast.
The salamander giant beast was sluggish in terms of soul power, but with its hunting instinct, it also spotted Zhou Chen for the first time, and then jumped directly towards Zhou Chen.
And at this time, many of the preparations Zhou Chen made in advance in order to enter the forest to subdue the demon beasts also showed their effect.
The "Intermediate Expulsion Pill" with a strong pungent smell used to repel wild monsters is worth 3,000 Alliance Coins.
There can be a "blood capsule" that emits a strong smell of blood and is used to lure carnivorous monsters, worth 200 alliance coins.
The "Intermediate Paralysis Ball" made from the paralysis powder on the body of medium-level insect monsters and used to block monsters is worth 4,200 alliance coins.
For such consumables, Zhou Chen spent nearly 20,000 alliance coins, almost all of his assets, to buy so many pieces.
In the face of the attack of the salamander giant beast, Zhou Chen threw out these consumables one by one, coupled with his keen soul perception and underwater skills, while maintaining a distance from the salamander giant beast, he led it all the way to swim up.
Finally, in vain of his adventure, the salamander giant beast was lured out of the lake by him, and the middle-aged man and his demon beast were discovered for the first time. Then it shifted its target, using the middle-aged man as food.
And Zhou Chen took this opportunity to escape.
"All the belongings I bought were gone. ”
The backpack behind Zhou Chen was completely deflated, and it was almost empty, and he didn't feel distressed, but felt very worthwhile.
When he was buying these things, especially those consumables that were divided into high, medium, and low-grade consumables, the clerk looked at him young and guessed that there were only low-level demon beasts in the area he entered, so he recommended cheap low-grade ones.
But he naturally won't listen to this opinion, he knows very well that this kind of life-saving thing, the more high-end the better. Even if he planned to operate on the outskirts of the forest, he had to guard against the threat of higher-level monsters.
"I've run out of life-saving things, and I'll have to go back tomorrow. ”
Zhou Chen plans to return tomorrow morning, first temporarily suspend the plan to find the demon pet, go back to earn some money, buy some consumables, and after having some protection, come back to the forest to find the demon beast.
As for today, it's late, so I'll have to find a place to spend the night.
After resting for a few minutes, Zhou Chen stood up and prepared to walk a little way back to the outer area of the forest. After all, he was chased by a middle-aged man, and by the time he reached the small lake, he had already penetrated deep into the middle of the forest.
Starting again, because there is no moon tonight, the road is very dark, Zhou Chen walked cautiously, but he had to take into account the speed of progress.
He still did not turn on the lighting function of the Contractor's watch, a function that was rarely used by the Contractor. This is common sense, turning on the light source of the watch in the wild, which is equivalent to exposing one's precise position, is a very dangerous suicidal behavior.
Therefore, contractors generally use monsters to assist in lighting. For example, Rhona's Light Pupil Bird. The lighting effect of the light pupil bird is many times better than the lighting function of the watch, and it also greatly reduces the danger.
At the very least, if there is an enemy or hostile monster, the first thing to pay attention to is the Light Pupil Bird, not the Contractor. In this way, the safety of the contractor himself is guaranteed.
In addition, if the demon pet owned by the contractor does not have this path-finding ability, then he can only rely on his own soul power to find the way.
Just like Zhou Chen now.
It's just that after contacting other contractors such as Lin Li, Rona, and the middle-aged man, Zhou Chen faintly noticed that something was wrong.
Especially the middle-aged man, he should be a three-star contractor, but when he pursued Zhou Chen, he did not show suppression of soul power. When he chased to Xiaohu and Zhou Chen lured the salamander beast out, he didn't catch the clues very keenly, so he didn't have time to escape with his life.
From this, Zhou Chen came to a conjecture. His current soul realm is the spirit level, and he is a one-star among contract masters, but his use of soul power is indeed far superior to that of other contract masters of the same level.
"Although that middle-aged man has a three-star level, his use of soul power is slightly inferior to mine, but the total amount of soul power is larger than mine. ”
While hurrying, Zhou Chen had a new understanding of his own strength: "It seems that although I am a one-star contractor, in terms of soul power use, I am also relatively strong among three-star people. This should be because, I have reached the realm of the Great Demon in "Hulu Immortal World", and I can even do it out of my body, and I am naturally stronger than these ordinary contractors in terms of the utilization rate and skills of soul power. ”
Having come to this conclusion, Zhou Chen was even more confident, and when facing most low-level contractors, he would not have to worry about anything.
After figuring this out, he stopped thinking and just quickened his pace.
He was already tired, exhausted from the series of escapes, fights, and the horror of facing the salamander behemoth, and he needed a good night's sleep.
After holding on to his body and driving for more than an hour, he estimated that he had reached the outskirts of the forest and that there would be no danger, so he found a big tree, climbed the taller and thicker branches, leaned his back against the trunk, and began to rest.
......
Bump! Bump! Bump!
I don't know how long he slept, and Zhou Chen's ears suddenly heard collision sounds again and again, making him open his eyes vigilantly.
"What sound?"
Zhou Chen looked down at the sound source on the ground, and immediately saw a scene.
It was a little bear cub with brown hair and less than half a meter tall, slamming into a tree in a daze.
Touch!
Touch!
Every time it hit it twice, it would raise its head and look into a large honeycomb in the tree, its two round black jewel-like eyes glinting with a desire for food. Zhou Chen even saw that the corners of its mouth seemed to be drooling.
"What kind of bear is this?"
Since there are many kinds of demon beast races of bears, and the one in front of him is obviously not an adult and does not show specific characteristics, so Zhou Chen can't identify it.
So he pointed the miniature camera of the watch at the little bear below. Its specifics are immediately apparent.
Steelclaw Bear: A large monster of the tooth beast class
Race Rarity Level: B
Race Qualification Levels: Flesh B, Element E, Soul D
Race Attribute: Earth (Trait: Heavy)
Racial Talent: Berserk
Monster Introduction: This is a more dangerous race of monsters, they usually live in the mountains and forests, omnivorous, their arms are well developed, their claws are as hard and sharp as steel, which can help them tear their prey or cut nuts, and when they are provoked, the racial talent will double their danger.
"It's a Steelclaw! I'm going to get it!"
Zhou Chen's eyes lit up, and the residual drowsiness that he had just woken up was swept away.
