Chapter Ninety-One: The Attack of the Retreating Beasts
A blue-purple carapace-like body, purple strong tendons, a fierce and brutal head, two thick forelimbs, two pairs of small hind limbs, a segmented body, an exaggerated dorsal fin on the back, and a slightly upturned tail. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It was the recluse beast that had scrept from underground, its front body reaching above the surface, its body gliding half-submerging and half-floating on the sand, and suddenly, he smelled something in front of him, and the creature that had never passed by it before could leave alive, and as if a little annoyed, it slid past, it was a shard of metal, although it did not have the eyes of the native Valoran creatures, but its sensory organs told it that.
The Deserters inherited the abilities of their leader, or mother, he could feel the ground tremble slightly, so as to judge the prey in the distance, its senses found the prey connected to the north, they should be the owners of this metal fragment, the unique vocal organs of the Retreat beast outward, to his kind of people called out, and soon, dozens of Retreat beasts slid over the sand, and in the direction of the first to find these 'traps' that could be placed, these guys, sneaked over.
… But who will be the prey and who will be the hunter...
"What do you say? No one knows where that guy is? Darius yelled at a man in front of him.
"Yes, yes," said the creature, who looked very small in front of Darius's tall figure, in a trembling voice, "because it has only recently appeared, most people don't know that guy exists, only a few people know that his city is in the middle of the desert, but the center of the desert is too big, and there is a large area that is often not passed by humans, so I, I can't be sure where he is." ”
Darius angrily pushed him aside, "Hmph, then in that case, it would be nice if you couldn't take a moment to find it," and he was about to give the order, when the front, the front of the army, suddenly became chaotic.
"What's going on?" Darius shouted, and in the distance a warrior on a fast horse galloped over, jumped off his horse and said to Darius, "My lord, there are some monsters going up from the ground ahead. ”
"Monsters?" Darius was not familiar with the area of Shurima, and an adjutant sitting on horseback next to him said to him, "It should be a local beast, but it is on the strong side, and the Shurimar people should not dare to approach them," the lieutenant followed Darius to the battle, and he was also unfamiliar with Shurima, but he had seen the appearance of the recluse beast in the intelligence before, and some superficial introductions on it.
It led Darius to think that this kind of thing should be the same beast as their wild wolf and lion, but it would be a little more ferocious.
This erroneous view prevented Darius from making timely adjustments to his army, believing that as long as the hoplites at the front of the army pressed over, a few of the more powerful beasts would be trampled on.
On the contrary, after a while, Darius noticed that the screams of the soldiers in front of him were not stopping, but were increasing, and it was only then that he realized the seriousness of the situation and sent the senior fighters in the middle of the team to 'put out the fire'.
It was only after climbing a small sand dune that Darius saw the 'beasts' for the first time.
Their massive bodies and tough carapaces allowed them to rampage between the ordinary hoplites, whose weapons did little harm, but none of the soldiers who were touched by the Desert could stand up again.
"Die, monster," one of the elite warriors that Darius sent out later made his way to the Desert Beast's side with great speed, holding the twin blades that glowed with a strange light and were poisoned at a glance, and his body jumped instantly, anticipating where the Desert was about to collide, and he stabbed his blades into the back of the Deserter.
However, the strength of the carapace of the land-go-beast was much higher than he had imagined, only one of the two stabbing blades was slightly pierced into the shallow layer of the carapace of the land-goat, and the other was directly bounced off by the carapace, and the elite warrior did not stand firm on the back of the land-gotten beast, and almost fell off.
In the distance, Darius's heart was also hanging, after all, elite warriors are not boiled water, they are not easy to cultivate, and they should not die under the claws of this 'beast'.
The elite warrior flipped up, his whole body rolled in the sky, and the blades slashed at the back of the Desert Beast again, this time he didn't have the strength he had just done, but sliced with all his strength towards the gap between the carapaces.
The Desert Beast let out a wail, its body shook frantically twice, and the elite warrior was turned around, and behind, an ordinary hoplite was hit by the body of the Desertion Beast, and flew out directly, smashing on the corpse of another soldier, and the whole chest bulged out.
The elite warrior's body fell to the ground, and there was a pain in his back, and he couldn't stand up for the first time, and was hit by the two strong forelimbs of the Escape Beast, and was smashed into meat filling.
