Chapter 4: The Red Lizard
The mountain was cold at night, and everyone shivered from the cold, even though everyone was wearing coats.
The cool evening breeze rustled the leaves like a baby's cry, and the surrounding trees looked like pale claws that could reach out and attack them at any moment, as the surrounding trees were shrouded in darkness and the reflection of the moonlight.
In this case, several people stopped at eleven o'clock and found a bush that was not very lush.
There is no need to worry about too many mosquitoes when you rest here at night, and the only drawback is that it is easy to expose yourself and attract wild animals.
Xiao Yue fulfilled his promise that he would not let everyone stay on the streets during the day, and found a few fan blades about the size of banana leaves and spread them on the ground and said:
"Don't underestimate these leaves, it can isolate the cold air under the ground, although it is uncomfortable to sleep, but it can keep you from catching a cold when you wake up tomorrow morning."
Chen Mo found that Su Xia was a very smart and observant girl, her brows were obviously furrowed after seeing the leaves on the ground, and surprisingly she didn't shout that she wouldn't sleep on it.
After a brief inner struggle, Su Xia was the first to sit down.
In fact, she is indeed a very clean girl, but the exhaustion of the day has made her clearly realize that if she wants not to sleep on the ground that may be crawled by insects at any time, it is not to make a noise, but to find a way to leave as soon as possible.
Xiao Yue is right-if you want to leave, you must survive!
The rest of the people also knew this, and they all lay down one after another. The task of taking turns keeping vigil was given to the three older boys, who changed shifts at two and a half hours.
Chen Mo was arranged to the end, and when he was sleeping in a daze, he was woken up by Xiao Yue, and Xiao Yue reminded him - it is best not to light a fire to keep warm, it is easy to attract beasts. He lay down and slept.
At this time, the time was almost four o'clock, and the sky was no longer black, but gray, and the surrounding scene could barely be seen, but it gave people an extremely eerie feeling.
Chen Mo warned Xiao Yue's words, did not light a fire to keep warm, and let the "whoosh" cold wind invade the thin body.
It was really cold in the mountains at night, Chen Mo just stood for a while and couldn't stand the cold, he felt that the temperature should have been as low as more than ten degrees, he didn't know what Xiao Yue relied on not to light a fire to keep warm, but he couldn't stand it himself.
"It's so late, I guess the beast is asleep too, right?"
To comfort himself, Chen Mo picked up some dry grass that was not damp around and lit it with a lighter (the one he brought with him when he came here).
A flame that was not too big immediately dispelled the clammy cold in his body, and the light of the fire made his face redden, and he began to think of the past.
Chen Mo is a high school student in his third year of high school, nineteen years old this year, he loves to play online games because of his academic tension, he is an otaku who is immersed in games all day, and he usually doesn't even want to go to the door, but that day after receiving that strange text message, he actually sent a ghost to that place, and took the train to get here.
"Alas——!" Chen Mo began to regret why he went out at that time, and he thought that everyone else would do the same. If it weren't for that, then he must be staying up late playing games!
......Suddenly, he heard a strange noise, like something moving in the grass. After looking at it, I was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat.
I saw two red lights appear in the black grass, the red light was very dazzling, and it was still moving, and soon, something crawled out of the grass - a giant lizard.
The lizard was five or six meters long, and its whole body was red, and the two red lights were its eyes, and the two of them were the size of a basketball combined.
"What's going on?" Everyone who was asleep was awakened by the appearance of this monster, and Xiao Yue was the one who ran over. They were all taken aback by this behemoth.
"I don't know, you may be attracted by the firelight, you all be careful."
Chen Mo took a picture of the lizard with his mobile phone, and information about the lizard appeared on the screen of his mobile phone:
[Name: Red lizard.]
Category: Monsters
Attribute: Fire
Grade: Level 2
Place of belonging: Guandao South, Guandao North
Characteristics: The whole body is red, has strong defense, can breathe fire, and drops the monster fragment "Lizard Tail" after killing. 】
"Everyone, be careful, it's a second-level demon beast fiery red lizard." Chen Mo reminded.
Everyone was frightened by this demon beast at first, but now after learning that this is the demon beast in this heaven and earth continent, in addition to fear, they are also a little excited, after all, they will take this official road south, and part of it is because the level of the demon beast here is low, and they can take the demon beast fragments to buy money after killing.
"Don't panic, go according to the original plan."
Xiao Yue was the first to run over, and he was very fast in terms of speed when he strengthened both strengthening points, and after a few cold rays, several claw marks appeared on the red skin of the scarlet lizard.
The soul beast he chose was a unicorn, and its attribute was fire, and his move was the same as Chen Mo's dragon claw, called a unicorn claw.
When they were in the Holy Soul Village last night, they had already made a plan on how to divide and cooperate in the face of battle. With Xiao Yue taking the initiative, Chen Mo and Lin Jie assisted left and right, as for Su Xia and Liu Xiaopang, they stood behind them and watched, and helped if necessary.
Chen Mo and Lin Jie did not slack off at all, they rushed forward one left and one right, and there were a few cold rays of light, and a few more claw marks appeared on the red lizard's body.
"Ah——!h It roared in pain, startling the insects and birds around it to scatter, opening its huge mouth and spewing out a ball of flames.
The flames covered a wide area, and the temperature was terrifyingly high, making everyone's faces sweat hot in this cold night.
On the left and right sides of the scarlet lizard, Chen Mo and Lin Jie were fine, after all, they didn't confront it head-on, and they jumped back and dodged it.
Xiao Yue was not lucky, although at this time, a red beast soul power rose from under his feet to defend and kept retreating, but the flames still quickly burned his beast soul power.
"Dangerous." Chen Mo and Lin Jie shouted at the same time, they both saw that Xiao Yue's arms had been burned by the fire, and they were afraid that if they continued like this, their whole bodies would be burned to ashes.
At this time, Su Xia, who was watching from the side, made a move, only to see that her whole body was covered with a layer of light blue beast soul power, and a dark cloud pressed down from the sky, stopping in mid-air, and the "booming" rain grew from small to large, completely extinguishing the flames.
Xiao Yue, whose arms were red and swollen from being burned, looked at her gratefully.
Su Xia's chosen beast soul is Vermilion Bird, and the attribute is water, and the move just now is the rain in the three skills.
Seeing that the momentum was not right, the scarlet lizard was about to turn around and run—it seems that the demon beast still has a certain spirituality!
"Don't let it run." Xiao Yue couldn't care about the pain in his arms at this time, and took the lead in chasing after him. Chen Mo and Lin Jie also followed closely behind.
"Fireball."
"Thunder and lightning."
"Wind Blade."
A fireball, a bolt of lightning, and several wind blades hit the scarlet lizard that was about to flee at the same time, only to hear a miserable scream, and under the black smoke, the scarlet lizard died, dropping the monster fragment "Lizard Tail." ”
