Chapter 54: Scarecrow (Ask for Recommendation Votes!)
Two hours later.
The sun is high, and it is the hottest time of the day on Luoxia Island, but in the dense forest, which is shaded by the canopy of tall trees, it only feels cool and dim.
It's already some distance from the "transit camp", it's a lesser-traveled area, and there are fewer and fewer adventurers from other groups.
"It's supposed to be this area, but there don't seem to be many monsters..."
Lin Quan, the captain of the contractor, held a valuable "assassin" military heavy crossbow in his hand, and said with some confusion as he walked through the team.
Judging from the map, there should be a lot of monsters in this area, could it be that he was deceived by the map seller with a fake again?
Or is it that the monster ecosystem on this island has been completely destroyed, and the monsters are hard to find?
For some very small other worlds, such as the "Kobold Mine Cave", the monsters in it must be one less than one dead, and there is no way to replenish them, but for an island like Luoxia Island, monsters will reappear when they are hunted and killed, just like wild beasts will multiply.
But in the same way, monsters in the other world will also be "extinct" like beasts to a certain extent, for example, because there are too many adventurers in the other world, and at the same time, the hunting intensity is too large...
Thinking of this, Lin Quan became a little flustered.
For this adventure, he invested all the funds in hand, if he was deceived, it would be fine, it was a big deal to change places and continue to look for monsters, but if the monster ecological chain on this island was completely broken, and a large number of monsters were extinct, then he really had no way at all.
Although for some adventurers who don't like to fight, it's a good thing that there are no monsters in the other world, and you can mine all kinds of resources with more confidence.
But for Lin Quan, it's fucked up, he's not here to be a miner or a medicine picker or something, although the income from mining resources is stable and relatively safe, but it's also difficult to "get rich overnight", and no monster means no drops, and no "experience", he also wants to upgrade and become a more powerful "evolutionary"!
However, as if to comfort Lin Dabao, Ding Zhaohui, who was walking at the front of the team, suddenly stopped, and shouted in a low voice: "Stop!"
Monsters approaching?
On the side, Cai Xukun "Xu Ping'an", who was wearing a white suspender, black shirt, and gray trousers, also quickly understood why Ding Zhaohui stopped, he seemed to hear an unusual "rustling" sound coming from in front of him, and it was getting closer and closer.
As a melee professional in the physics department, it's normal for your hearing to be sharper than the average person.
Rustle···
The sound was getting closer and closer, and soon, even the ordinary people at the back of the line could hear it, and they raised their weapons one after another.
Rustle···
I saw that behind a large banyan tree in front of me, which required several people to surround it, two dark yellow, dirty figures appeared hobbly.
The two figures were about the same height as adults, tall and thin, with distinct heads, limbs, and bodies, and the only thing that was a little strange was that they did not have any facial features on their faces, and their whole bodies were made up of straw and wooden sticks—
It's a scarecrow!
Xu Ping'an saw the appearance of these two uninvited guests, and quickly recognized what these three humanoid monsters were.
This is probably the best monster to identify, they are no different from the scarecrows placed in the fields in the rural areas of the Blue Star to drive away birds, it is nothing more than a small difference in appearance caused by the artistic vision of the creator.
However, according to the knowledge of dangerous creatures in another world that Xu Ping'an has learned, this is a kind of otherworld monster with a very low threat to humans, even lower than kobolds, although they are bloodthirsty and not afraid of pain, but they move slowly, and their bodies composed of straw and wooden sticks are not very strong, and their biggest weakness is extreme fear of fire.
"It's a scarecrow!"
Lin Quan, the captain of the contract foreman, also recognized it at a glance, shouted excitedly, and the assassin's cross crossbow in his hand was directly activated, and a cold light flashed in the dense forest, shooting towards the scarecrow in front.
There was a soft "poof", and the scarecrow's head was pierced by a cross-edged arrow, which pierced through the back of its head.
However, the scarecrow did not fall, only paused slightly, and continued to walk with his companions, dragging stiff steps, making a "rustling" sound on the grass, towards the Blood Banner Adventurer team.
Yes, although the scarecrow is not as strong as the kobold in terms of threat to human adventurers, and it is considered a very weak monster from another world, but due to the different characteristics of the innate monsters, the scarecrow can sometimes face a lot of fatal injuries but can not care.
After all, whether it is a brain or a stomach, a scarecrow with only a belly of straw will not care about being pierced by an arrow at all, and the story of the straw boat borrowing cheap should be heard by everyone, to kill a scarecrow, or break it up, or set it on fire.
Ya wants to rob me of my experience!
This was the only thought in Xu Ping'an's mind.
Although the experience of killing monsters seems to be far less than the transformation of free enhancement points, no matter how thin the mosquito's legs are, they are still meat.
"Charge!"
After Xu Ping'an shot an arrow in Linquan, he also shouted as soon as possible, took off the lead stick from his back, and rushed over with lightning speed.
However, Xu Ping'an's target was the scarecrow walking behind, not the scarecrow who was shot by Lin Quan at the front, because the one in front had already been beaten, so it stands to reason that the experience points gained would be less?
"Slam!"
Xu Ping'an raised his lead stick and launched the skill "Slam" again, just consuming the 20 points of anger obtained by the charge, and smashed his hand into the head of the scarecrow with a sweep.
Boom!
The lead-wrapped stick, which increased its attack power by 120%, slammed into the scarecrow's head, sending the entire scarecrow flying more than a meter and falling to the ground.
"Didn't you even knock your head off?"
Xu Ping'an frowned, the scarecrow's blow felt like a sandbag, quite strong, and a blunt instrument seemed to be not easy to hurt it.
Click, click,
The scarecrow walking in front also turned around slowly at this time, and a pair of grassy palms stiffly grabbed Xu Ping'an.
Thanks to the slow movement of the scarecrow, Xu Ping'an jumped back, dodging the other party's palm, and at the same time, Xu Ping'an's other hand was put on his waist, and the dog-legged machete hanging on his leg was pulled out at once, and he slashed at the scarecrow.
Burst!
The dogleg machete slashed hard into the scarecrow's neck, and was stuck in it—the straw on the scarecrow was so resilient that an ordinary, barely sharp dogleg machete couldn't cut it off.
