Chapter 289: Throat Locker
Although a little caught off guard, there are still quite a few ways to deal with these little guys who just look a little infiltrating, although they can't be forced, but everyone still has quite a lot of ways to solve them.
A lockthroat monster that locked the head of the team member suddenly screamed, and its whole body shriveled down at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in a few seconds it turned into a thin gray skin, which was grabbed by the assassin with the [Vampire Dagger].
The Northland warrior was also unlucky, but he slammed into the tunnel a few times without carelessness, and the lockthroat monster that had locked him turned into a bloody mass of minced flesh.
Sou!
"[Ice Spear] deals 18 cold damage to the target (Lockthroat)."
"Target is dead."
"Extract the target's soul energy, and increase the soul energy by 50 points."
It is worthy of being a beginner-level creature, even if one of the 50 soul energy is all killed by Morey, it is estimated that there will not be 1000 points!
A lockthroat monster that was visibly larger than the others screamed, spread its slender limbs with barbed ends, and lunged at Morey's head.
If he is slammed into his throat, Morey, as a mage, will not only have to take at least 4 points per round of damage over time, but he will also not be able to cast spells that require words.
It seemed as if everyone around them was doing their own thing and didn't have time to take care of themselves, and this medium-sized lockthroat monster actually killed it like that.
"Humph!"
Morey snorted coldly, as if he was very disdainful of these guys' tentative movements, but he did not hesitate to condense an ice spear in his hand and threw it out.
Sou!
The pale blue ice spear stabbed the chokehold, which had nowhere to dodge in the air, like an arrow, but just as the ice spear was about to hit its body, the chokeholder actually jumped up again against common sense, dodging the rapidly spinning ice spear.
"The Throatlocker has unleashed the [Acceleration] ability, giving it an extra chance to move."
"[Ice Spear] was perfectly dodged by the target (Lockthroat Monster) and missed."
The Lockthroat Dodges the Ice Spear Technique, which is determined to win, and looks a little proud, and its wicked smile like a duck reverberates wantonly in the tunnel, but it rushes straight to Morey like a gray lightning.
Morey was a little depressed, if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't release the [Fireball Technique] in this small space, Morey would have blown up the gray-skinned monster to death with a fireball, and he was still waiting for it to perform?
Closer, closer, the Lockthroat Monster's excited mouth couldn't help but secrete a large amount of fishy saliva.
It could feel the powerful blood fluctuations in the mage in front of it, and if it ate him this time, it would definitely allow itself to break through the middle level and become a high-level throat locker, which was already the most powerful existence in their race.
Eat him! I'm going to have to eat him!!
With the belief of a foodie, the Lockthroat seemed to feel the blessing of a mysterious power from the East, it could feel the wind shivering on its skin, and it could feel the trembling of every muscle fiber in its body. With this special blessing, its speed was like a howling wind, and it swooped down on Morey's neck at great speed, but just as it was about to taste this supreme delicacy, it seemed to crash into an invisible wall, and flew back upside down at an even faster speed.
"The [Magic Missile] has been released."
"The magic missile deals 12 stance damage to the target (Lockthroat)."
"The Magic Missile deals 10 stance damage to the target (Throatlocker)."
"The magic missile deals 9 stance damage to the target (Lockthroat)."
“......”
"Target is dead."
"Extract the target's soul energy, and increase the soul energy by 100 points."
Looking at the chokehold monster that was smashed by the [Magic Missile] and collapsed, Morey said lightly:
"How? How am I doing? ”
Although Morey uses low-level spells such as the dwarf [Ice Spear] and [Magic Missile], Garrett will not underestimate the other party because of this, but Morey's precise spell strikes and unchaotic extreme spell casting completely dispelled his concerns.
"Hehe, mage, you're too worried! We were negligent just now, and we won't be next time! ”
Naturally, Morey wouldn't believe Garrett's defense, but since then, the team has truly regarded him as a mage and protected him, intentionally or unintentionally.
Several poisonous arrows and short stabbing traps were suddenly triggered, and there was no need for Morey to use shield spells himself, and they were spontaneously blocked by the assassins and warriors around him.
Fortunately, there are still a few cases where it is suddenly triggered, and most of the traps along the way have been dismantled by the wanderers.
Although there were no casualties along the way, the mood of everyone was getting more and more nervous, and the tunnel that could only be barely passed by one person was getting wider and wider, and now everyone seemed to be in a huge karst cave, although there were no sharp and thick stalagmites hanging upside down overhead, and there was no sound of dripping water, but this wide newly excavated huge cave made everyone have a bad guess.
This is definitely a tailor-made room for a certain "big guy"!
"Hey, mage, what's your name?"
A halfling suddenly walked up to Morey's side and asked in a low voice.
Due to their weight, many triggered traps are ineffective for the halfling, so they are very popular with dungeon squads.
Therefore, Garrett also hired him as a team member, and he lived up to expectations, giving full play to his abilities in the previous trap area, dismantling most of the traps before they were triggered, and even dismantling a triggered [Flame Bursting Hell] spell scroll alone.
If this level 8 spell scroll is triggered, they who are not prepared, except for Morey, who may survive, the rest of them will all have to turn into ashes.
Morey glanced at the short man and didn't say much.
It's not that Morey has any ill feelings for this halfling, halflings are the most popular race with their own charm +1 among many intelligent creatures, but he is now playing a shadow mage who believes in the goddess of darkness, and he is neutral and evil, and he does not directly speak ill of him, even if he refrains.
"My name is Barney, happy Barney, can I talk to you about something?"
The halfling wanderer, however, did not seem to be struck by Morey's indifference, and was still enthusiastically approaching.
"Oh, little man, what's the matter with you?"
Morey expressed his curiosity "at the right time".
"Hehe, can you please wait and protect me!"
Barney said as he smiled and stuffed a quaint scroll, which was the previous level 8 spell scroll [Flame Explosion Hell].
"Why don't you go and beg that teammate of yours, he's also a mage!"
Barney didn't join the party alone, but was introduced to the expedition by another mage in the team.
According to the relationship between relatives and relatives, even if this halfling wanderer is afraid, he should first ask his teammate for help!
"I said I ran into him temporarily, can you believe me?"
