Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Evil Scorpion Snake
He Ming also lifted his sword, raised his spirit, and was on guard. It's just that the grass is shallow this way, and the vision is also very clear, and there is no danger, and the common scorpion snakes and ordinary bats, and the black maggots are not very active in attacking them now, so He Ming is a little unclear about what he needs to watch out for.
And as they slowed down, and not long before they advanced, suddenly there was a large area of unusually tall bushes in front of them, much taller than a man, and very dense. It just so happened that there was another obstacle that could only pass through two people, and it was simply impossible to pass.
After a little discussion, He Ming decided to use the advantage of his weapon to clear the bushes that obstructed the entrance, and then pass carefully, because everyone present felt that there was something nearby and did not dare to rush in.
And in the life of the Viper Valley, he is still very good at chopping wood and grass, so he is not pretentious, leaning down and slashing with a very steady sword, a piece of shrub fern was cut off by Qi Root, just when he was about to take a step forward to clean up the remaining plants in the obstruction.
There was an unpleasant hissing and squeaking sound reaching their ears.
He Mingxin suddenly raised his throat, held his sword in both hands, took a few steps back, and gathered all his strength to guard against possible enemies.
The upper body of the strip stood upright, taller than a human, with six scorpion legs and two scorpion pincers, and the evil scorpion snake covered in black swooped out from there. While hissing sound, his teeth, pincers, tail, and feet all attacked at different parts of He Ming at the same time.
This must be what the Guardian said caused the ecological anomaly here, unlike the things he saw along the way, this evil viper is full of an oppressive dark aura, and it is a dark monster that can suppress the light emitted by the divine beast!
Not only does it look sinister and abnormal, but its actions are also as fast as the wind, not to mention that this body is a deadly weapon, He Ming roared and swung up obliquely, and after touching its scorpion pincers, he used all his strength to retreat backwards, but the retreat was fast, the evil scorpion snake was faster, and a scorpion tail was already about to touch He Ming's door.
Seeing that something bad was about to happen, a rune paper and a fireball hit the evil scorpion snake at the same time, maybe the evil scorpion snake could also see that the opponent was not weak, and he actually slipped to the side to stop the attack, dodging these two spells flying at high speed.
Just as the rune paper was about to fly over it, the guard shouted, and the rune paper immediately exploded, burning with golden flames, covering it in golden light, and Ye Zilan and the guard immediately rushed over to prepare to pursue.
But he heard the evil scorpion snake let out a scream, and then from its body has been diffusing endless darkness, directly covering the golden flame that originally covered it, and lost its trace in the darkness.
The three followed, and the assailant could no longer be found. But the bush environment ahead can no longer be guarded against and cannot move forward.
The interrogator said: "This monster may have absorbed dark energy here for many years, and already has a strong ability to control the darkness, but I am afraid that the road ahead of us will not be easy to walk." ”
Ye Zilan said: "I clearly felt its existence just now, but I couldn't see it in my field of vision, it is obvious that it can control the light around it, just like your stealth technique, it will become extremely dangerous for it to sneak attack us." ”
Then they looked at He Ming, who had just escaped, although he was almost planted under this attack, but He Ming's face did not look frightened at all, but a strange excitement appeared on his face.
"I've been staring, the bushes over there aren't swinging, it's still near us, and it's not escaping into the bushes!" He Ming said with a trembling voice.
As soon as these words came out, both Xian Gu and Ye Zilan couldn't help but look at him a little, and then carefully felt their passage without plants. They found that there was obviously a certain change in light and shadow, and there were fluctuations in more than one place, and if they were not careful, they would not be able to find the hidden target at all.
With a sudden wave of his hand, seven or eight pieces of rune paper shining with golden light flew out towards several corners of this passage, and then exploded in an instant, and the dazzling golden flames instantly covered the entire passage, and Ye Zilan raised his hand, leaving a wall of fire on the side of the obstacle, blocking the way for the evil scorpion to escape into the bushes.
Just not far from Ye Zilan, the evil scorpion snake was illuminated, and sure enough, the first target of these creatures that had been assimilated by darkness was an attacking mage! The evil scorpion snake that was illuminated did not stop doing anything, hissed, and attacked Ye Zilan at the same time with teeth, pincers, feet and tail.
Ye Zilan didn't dodge or dodge, he raised the Soul Lust Staff to face it, and a ring-shaped lightning nova spread out from the staff, enveloping Ye Zilan in its entirety.
The evil scorpion snake that originally pounced on it actually twisted strangely, swam around the electric circle, and then pounced on Ye Zilan from behind.
As the electric ring expanded larger and larger, the current caused was no longer so strong, and the evil scorpion snake that was strong against this electric shock still pounced on Ye Zilan, and its tail and pincers hit her.
"Ye Zilan!" In a hurry, He Ming instantly looked like a shadow, leaving a blue afterimage, and a sharp sword light slashed over, but the evil scorpion snake failed to hit Ye Zilan hard:
When it struck, Ye Zilan's magic shield had already unfolded at some point, and a golden magic barrier almost completely blocked the attack, and the remaining electricity shook it back instantly, allowing it to use its strength to avoid He Ming's sword that was so fast that it couldn't be seen clearly.
At this time, the divine beast was already shining red, and the shiny bag came over, so that the evil scorpion snake could not release the dark aura for a while, and the inquisitor threw out the holy amulet in several directions, ready to burst out of light to restrain its darkness.
The evil scorpion snake immediately realized that it had lost its advantage in the shadows, and it hissed, but instead twisted to attack He Ming, who was closest to him.
Although He Ming was as fast as the wind at this time, moving without a shadow and invisible, he could not completely suppress the evil scorpion snake in terms of speed, and they fought together, which somewhat made Ye Zilan and the Guardian a little jealous. This monster has endured the electric ring emitted by the Soul Lust Staff, and it can still give birth to dragons and tigers, which is enough to see that its magic resistance has also reached a certain level.
Finally, He Ming interspersed repeatedly, flew many times, found an attack block for the evil scorpion snake, and then slashed at its back with a sword with full strength, only hearing a ding, but leaving only a shallow mark.
It's not that this monster is so hard that it can't cut it, it's just that it's so slippery and fast, and it can actually use its strength to unload most of the thunderbolt's power in the first place.
Neither of these targets is easy to mess with, and the Inquisitor has always been able to restrain its advantages, the evil scorpion snake once again made an attack on He Ming, and when He Ming was preparing to parry, it suddenly turned around, and a black shadow slid towards the Inquisition!
As soon as it moved, the Guardian performed the Divine Warframe Technique, the golden transparent armor was wrapped around his body, full of might, and then the Guardian Dragon Pattern Sword was in his hand, and a sword light slashed towards the abdomen of the evil scorpion snake, and in a confrontation, the Divine Warframe was broken, and the intersection of the belly of the evil scorpion was accurately cut a wound.
"Gah! Hiss! With a flick of its tail and forcing the Inquisitor back a few steps, the evil scorpion unleashed the boundless darkness again, and fled into the darkness again:
The Guardian left runes in several corners where it might have escaped, but he was unprepared by his side, and in an instant it found a place to escape into the darkness under the light, only to hear the sound of a screeching noise, and it was obvious that the monster had slipped away from the darkness.
Seeing this, the interrogator made a decision, and with a loud shout, the sacred amulets everywhere exploded at the same time, and at the point near the obstacle, the black figure of the evil scorpion snake was once again illuminated, and this time it was obviously quite knowledgeable and ready to flee into the bushes.
He Ming once again entered the realm of selflessness, rushed over with all his might, and slashed out with a sword.
The body of the evil scorpion snake that only cared about escaping suddenly twisted unscientifically to the left, so that He Ming's sword could not be righted, but the two scorpion feet were cut off from the middle and fell, and then it actually forced its way through the wall of fire and burrowed into the unfathomable bush.
Ye Zilan and the interrogator came to He Ming, who was still panting.
He Ming gritted his teeth fiercely and said: "Damn it, let it escape into the bushes, now it's in the dark, we are in the light, and the road ahead will be troublesome." ”
The interrogator asked Ye Zilan: "What's wrong?" ”
Ye Zilan said: "I don't know where it went, but if it dares to appear again this time, it won't be able to run away." ”
The interrogator said: "This problem is not big, it has gathered most of the dark energy in this layer, it is not caught off guard, and it will not suffer such a big loss, if it dares to come out and provoke us, it will definitely not run away, hehe." ”
Ye Zilan said: "Yes, but it can't sneak attack us anymore, we can't wait, let's keep going, it's best if we don't come to harass again." ”
So they moved on, and the interrogator noticed that He Ming looked strange, his breathing was a little short, and he held his sword tightly, and there was a feeling that he hadn't been able to fight enough.
What a crazy guy, it's not a bad thing to be so belligerent, but it's not necessarily a good thing, the judge sighed lightly, pressed his hand on the back of He Ming's heart, and used the Tranquility Technique to make He Ming slowly calm down that state.
He Ming, who came out of the nervous state, said to the interrogator with some embarrassment: "Senior, I'm really sorry, I'm a little forgetful." ”
The interrogator pulled the corners of his mouth and said:
"You look exactly like me once was, and I feel lucky to be alive until now. I'll have to exercise a little restraint in the future. Also, don't keep calling me senior, you and Ye Zilan are in pairs, calling me senior every day, making me feel too old. ”
He Ming hurriedly said: "Don't talk about this, I really regard you all as respected seniors." If I shout old, I just don't shout like this in the future, but I don't feel quite right. ”
