Chapter 40: Operation Takeover
Until the next morning, neither of them left the campfire.
They weren't the two teams they had met before, and they didn't have any interest in "persuasion", and catching a few steel-clawed moles and the mutated black-clawed mole was the ultimate goal.
"According to your information, there should be no special resources on the island, how can there be a wizard team landing? And to be able to fight like this with a group of wizards, the strength of the other group of people is definitely not weak, last night's momentum ...... You have to be careful today. ”
Donald thought about the ring he had found from under the corpse's hand last night, and the letter Abbott had left behind that said that it was a token of the Wizarding Sect.
Is it possible that these wizards are here to find this person who died here?
"I don't know, although there are many people who know the information that there are steel-clawed moles on Moss Island, but if this strange beast does not cooperate with a specific recipe, even if it is caught and eaten, the effect is extremely average, at most, it is to increase the willfulness of some palm skin and a small increase in strength, basically the person who wants to catch does not have this ability, and the person who has the ability to capture does not care about this little improvement, so there are not many people who have come here in the past, and this time it is an emergency. ”
It's normal for someone to rob, and Anthony called Donald as a helper because he was worried that someone would rob him, but this group of wizards came to rob it, and it was a little too much to say.
"It's going to rain, Finger, stay in your backpack for a while, don't come out, understand?"
Stepping on the campfire and turning off the whale oil lamp, Donald looked at his pocket watch, 7 o'clock in the morning, it was the end of August, and the sky should be bright at this point in time, but through the gap in the forest, all he could see was a large gray cloud.
"Return immediately after finding the black-clawed mole, the steel-clawed mole has this one already completed the goal, we don't know what happened on this island, it is better to leave as soon as possible, just look for one day, whether the black-clawed mole is found tomorrow morning or not, we must leave. ”
Anthony took out the waterproof cloak from his backpack and put it on, it was not a good idea to get drenched in the rain on such an island.
Donald also had it in his backpack.
Traveling deeper into the forest according to the map he had obtained, Donald would turn on his vision almost every 2 to 3 minutes to check the situation around him and prevent an ambush or sneak attack.
In the center of Moss Island, the terrain has changed, and it stands to reason that the denser the woods become denser and denser in the middle, and the large stacked stones become the main tone here, and there is even a stone forest in the deepest part, with stone pillars several meters high standing everywhere.
"This is where the stone forest is, where the black-clawed mole nest is. ”
Putting away the drawings, Anthony pulled the rain cloak on his head out, and when he reached out, he could already see some rain hanging from the sky.
It's raining, it's not raining, it can only be considered ordinary.
The two of them split up, looking for the hole of the black-clawed mole, the stone forest is not large, but there are too few hidden places, carpet search, it took more than an hour to find a hole in the grass under a stone pillar.
"Look at the blood here, it's down there. ”
Fingers twisted up a few blades of grass, which were still stained with blood.
A new question arises, how to catch the black-clawed mole.
"I don't think it's feasible to deal with black-clawed moles in the same way. ”
They did manage to squat at a steel-clawed mole rat last night, but that was under the premise that it was defenseless, as a mutant entity, the black-clawed mole rat was undoubtedly more intelligent than the steel-clawed mole, not to mention that it suffered at the hands of humans yesterday, so it must be more careful.
"As mentioned in the note, the black-clawed mole is extremely aggressive and can't tolerate something invading its territory, we can make a fuss about this, do you know water spells?"
The territory of the black-clawed mole rat is obviously this stone forest, but they have been here for a while without any attack, which means that the black-clawed mole may have shrunk its range and moved from the ground to the ground.
"You want to drown it out, but I don't know how to use water spells,"
Fill the hole with water, the black-clawed mole may be able to swim, but it can't hold its breath under the water, but the only elemental spells that Donald can currently use are fire and thunder.
"Then you have to find other ways to stimulate it, the mole hole is very deep underground, ordinary gunshots, explosions should not work, even if you know how to use water spells, it will take a lot of time to pour the black-clawed mole out of it, well......"
Anthony crouched on the edge of the cave and fell into deep thought.
"Fill the whole hole...... I think I've got a way, whether it's water or anything, it's not as efficient as me, get up. ”
What's the fastest thing to fill a space, light?
What if it's an underground space with many barriers and bends?
It's up to you, Sonic Toad!
When the runes flickered and a large dark green toad appeared on the edge of the stone pillar, Anthony's eyes widened for a long time.
"It's yours...... Pets?"
Anthony took a step back, he wasn't used to being stared at by a monster about his height.
"The back is my pet, this is my thug, remember the last time I got the meat, it was from it, this strange thing can collect all kinds of souls, so that they can become my subordinates, so if nothing else, this black-clawed mole will become my second thug. ”
When Anthony came back last night, Donald had already put away the sonic toad, and now even if it was a supplementary introduction, there was nothing to hide, just like yesterday Anthony told Donald the secret of his two short knives.
The relationship between the two is no longer a simple cooperation, but can exchange some more intimate information.
"Do these souls have the consciousness of autonomy, can they grow on their own?"
"You have a lot of vision, this strange thing is in the hands of others, it is an ordinary object, the soul has no independent consciousness, and it is impossible to achieve self-growth, but in my hands, these two things can be done!"
Anthony's eyesight was unquestionable, and after only a short observation, he noticed the defect of the bone spirit disk, and it made sense that this strange object could fall into the hands of Rastolle and not be used by him.
The souls it absorbs and summons are all unconscious, which means that once the number increases, not to mention whether they can completely control these souls, in fact, whether the person who holds the bone spirit disk can use these souls well has to be said separately.
In the heat of battle, where is there so much thought to command these unconscious souls who need to be remotely controlled throughout the whole process?
Moreover, these souls have actually been greatly weakened after they are collected, just like when the sonic toad is summoned out of this reminder, it is directly reduced by nearly half, and its strength is greatly reduced, if it weren't for Donald having a siphon bone ring to help it devour energy and demon activation so that it can digest energy independently, the sonic toad would not have grown at all.
To put it bluntly, this strange thing, only Donald's ability can fully stimulate its potential, in the hands of others this strange thing is the price of a few hundred gold pounds, but in Donald's hands, the price is thousands!
"Sonic toads, frogs. ”
The order was given, and Donald and Anthony took a few steps back and watched as the sonic toad lay down at the entrance of the cave.
Gollum~~
The Sonic Toad, who had devoured several souls, was now growing in strength, and the sound of the frog chirping penetrated through the eardrums, and it was nothing that Donald was avoided as its owner outside the range of influence of the frog song, and Anthony had to go around in a big circle to Donald's side, that is, behind the Sonic Toad.
"Does it work?"
"I'm going to have to wait a little longer, I don't feel anything appear at the moment, we both stand away, the sonic toad doesn't have any smell on it, maybe our smell makes the black-clawed mole rat dare not come out, is there any spray of the smell of plant rhizomes before?"
Donald kept his vision on, paying attention to the situation underground, and after a while, he turned to Anthony and said.
"Shall we two retreat and let it deal with the black-clawed mole later?"
Anthony took out the spray and handed a bottle, and the two of them stepped back as they sprayed.
"Don't worry, this guy is no weaker than the black-clawed mole when he is alive, doesn't it refuse to come out, I'll force it to come out, let's just watch from the side." ”
The person didn't step forward, but just stepped back while holding his palm at the sonic toad, and the dark green line of fire merged into its body, which was just a first-order enhancement that consumed 3 points of spiritual power, Donald pinched the time when the state enhancement was completed, and said,
"Sonic Toad, get rid of the black-clawed mole. ”
Gollum~
Compared to the previous sluggishness, the sonic toad turned around and nodded softly to indicate that it understood.
"Your abilities are incredible...... It seems that it is absolutely correct to ask you to cooperate this time. ”
Anthony thought that the dark green flame that appeared in Donald's hand that could give Sonic Toad greater strength and wisdom was his talent...... Actually, it's not much worse.
The strengthened sonic toad was once again heading towards the entrance of the cave, this time the frog's croaking was obviously a notch stronger than the previous one, and the blades of earth and grass at the entrance of the cave shook wildly at the same time as the sound wave was transmitted, and the tone of the voice became extremely sharp.
"It's coming!"
The black-clawed mole's aggressiveness finally prevailed over its desire to escape, and Donald saw the red light rushing upwards.
The sonic toad also noticed that the moment the black-clawed mole rushed out, it was greeted by the sonic toad's bloody mouth.
Biting the claw of the black-clawed mole, it flicked back and forth in mid-air, and when it reacted and raised its other paw, it spit out in time and threw it directly at a nearby stone pillar.
Whew!!
The black-clawed mole's front paws were truly extraordinary, and even this level of biting and shaking still failed to tear it apart, only gnawing out a few bloody holes.
This made Donna's soul even more intrigued.
What should I choose a name?
