Chapter Seventy-Seven: Fighting Separately
The dead demon beast was quickly disposed of, and no demon cores were found in the body, only some rudimentary materials were collected.
This is also expected by everyone, the demon core is the energy crystallization formed by the condensation of the demon beast's physical energy, the more high-level the demon beast, the greater the chance of the demon core appearing, like this first-order demon beast, there may not be one in a hundred who has a demon core.
In this hunt, An Xu and their goal was to obtain at least one second-order demon core in order to be considered complete, but the hunt had just begun, and everyone knew that the real battle was still to come.
Even the outer areas of the Moon Forest are divided into inside and outside, and as you continue to go deeper into the inner area, the traces of demon beasts along the way begin to become more frequent.
It didn't take long for An Xu and the others to find traces of two demon beasts passing by in the same place.
One trail went straight to the east, the footprints were very deep, it seemed that this demon beast was relatively large, and the other was all the way to the north, the traces were more messy, and there might be more than one.
An Xu looked at Lao Wang and asked, "Can you identify what level of demon beast this is?" ”
Lao Wang shook his head and said: "I don't know, but the demon beasts above the fourth order will have their own fixed territory, and they will not allow other demon beasts to step in at will. ”
Lao Wang doesn't know much about demon beasts, and for an ordinary hunter like him, there is no difference between a first-order demon beast and a ninth-order demon beast for him, and they are all incomparable existences.
An Xu hesitated for a few seconds, and then said, "Let's go north." ”
Since it is determined that it is not a demon beast above the fourth order, then it is natural to pick more first! The higher the difficulty and the more rewards, which is more in line with the purpose of their hunt.
As the captain, when performing the task, An Xu has the right and responsibility to make decisions, and as soon as he opened his mouth, everyone stopped grinding and chased towards the north.
This time the pursuit lasted for a long time, and it was not until it was almost evening that An Xu and the others found the prey they were pursuing.
On the edge of a quiet waterhole, three demon beasts were playing and playing, An Xu didn't know many demon beasts, and the three in front of him were exactly within the scope of his cognition, they were the wind demon wolves he had fought many times.
The Wind Demon Wolf is very fast and very aggressive, and it will be supplemented by simple wind spells in battle, which can be regarded as a relatively difficult opponent, but most of the strength of this demon beast is second-order to third-order, and An Xu is not very afraid.
Just as they were about to plan a battle plan, the three Wind Demon Wolves suddenly bowed down and made a state of alertness in An Xu's direction, their dark green pupils emitting a cold light, making people shudder.
"Oops, they found us!" Lin Qingqing said nervously.
"Don't panic, Fanny, you deal with the one on the far right, I'll drag the two on the left, Doudou responds remotely, Qingqing, you stay in place, in case a demon beast rushes over, pay attention to protect the safety of Doudou Wang." An Xu didn't expect these three demon beasts to be so alert, and quickly issued a battle plan.
"Good...... Good! Lin Qingqing clenched the round shield in her hand, her strength was the lowest in the team, and she didn't have much experience in combat, and the tense atmosphere made her slightly uneasy.
An Xu cast an encouraging look, and on the other side, Fanny couldn't wait to charge forward.
The heavy blow of the giant sword was like the routine she had used before, but the Wind Demon Wolf in front of her was obviously more cunning than the previous demon beast, and she dodged it with a leap of her body, and then tangled with Fanny.
Another Wind Demon Wolf wanted to sneak up on Fanny from behind, and suddenly, the beast's instinctive nature made it pause and dodge, but it was still a step slower, only to see a transparent arc blade shoot out, directly hitting its hind legs, leaving a trail of blood.
An Xu caught the attention of his opponent with an invisible blade, and then he didn't stop at his feet, and he charged, raising his shield and colliding with it.
However, in the blink of an eye, this Wind Demon Wolf was knocked out, and An Xu also figured out its strength, which was probably around the middle of the second order.
Before the third Wind Demon Wolf could move, it was hit by Doudou's long-range attack, but its reaction was also agile, and its body was low enough to avoid the arrows that were fired, and then its eyes were fierce and rushed in the direction of Doudou.
An Xu's afterglow has been paying attention to this Wind Demon Wolf, of course, it is impossible to let it leave easily, so he directly picked up the shield and flew over, knocking the Wind Demon Wolf to the side, and then pulled his hand and pulled the chain to take the shield back.
After a period of practice, An Xu has been able to master the use of the Divine Machine Shield, and now he can play a lot of the role of the Divine Machine Shield.
At this moment, there was a sound of breaking the air behind him, An Xu hurriedly set up the shield and turned around, and a wind blade slammed into the hard shield, turning into a little fluorescent and dissipating into the air.
The Wind Demon Wolf, who had been knocked into the air by An Xu before, had already recovered from his senses, and after sending out a wind blade, he opened his sharp mouth and pounced on An Xu.
Although this is only a second-order demon beast, An Xu also does not dare to be careless, he has a lot of experience in fighting, he knows the difficulty of this kind of demon beast, their sharp teeth and sharp claws, even the steel armor on his body may not be able to defend against it.
However, the Wind Demon Wolf pounced straight like this, but it was right in the arms of An Xu, as a shield warrior, the last thing An Xu feared was to fight the enemy head-on.
How could a second-order demon beast collide with An Xu, whose strength was close to the peak of the three-star range? In the face of this swoop, An Xu lowered his body slightly, and then raised his shield upward, knocking the heavy body of the Wind Demon Wolf up.
Stepping forward, An Xu clinged to the Wind Demon Wolf in a floating state, and directly swept with a move, cutting a hideous wound on its abdomen.
"Whew-" The Wind Demon Wolf let out a terrible roar and staggered back several steps.
At this time, the strong physique of the demon beast was reflected, this wind demon wolf was seriously injured in the abdomen and legs, and it was still able to move, if it was a human, I am afraid that it would have already lost its combat effectiveness.
It seemed that he also knew that the heavily armored warrior in front of him was not easy to mess with, and the Wind Demon Wolf shifted his target, bypassing An Xu and wanting to attack Doudou and the others who were hiding behind.
The other Wind Demon Wolf, who was smashed by the shield, also got up at this time and continued to rush towards the rear.
An Xu had a little headache, the two Wind Demon Wolves were one left and one right, it was too difficult to stop them all, he glanced at the battle situation on the other side with his spare eyes, Fanny was at ease, the opponent in front of her was already scarred, and it was estimated that it would not take long to be solved by Fanny.
"Qingqing, drag it off, I'll get this one right away!" An Xu shouted, deciding to completely kill the Wind Demon Wolf who was already injured a lot.
Shouting, An Xu had already made a move, and with a wave of the short sword in his hand, another transparent air blade flew out, taking advantage of the wind demon wolf's dodging skills, he charged again, and at the same time used his shield to charge.
The continuous attacks made this Wind Demon Wolf have no time to dodge all of them, and could only watch as he was hit by An Xu, falling to the ground and rolling several times, seeing that he couldn't get up.
An Xu chased after it, aimed it at its neck, and ended its life with a sword.
Solving a wind demon wolf, An Xu only had the leisure to observe the entire battle situation, this look made him feel a sudden in his heart, only to see that the wind demon wolf that rushed towards Doudou suddenly burst out, the speed became several points faster, turned into an afterimage, and slapped Lin Qingqing back one after another with one claw.
I didn't notice just now that the speed of this demon beast had actually reached the third order.
Lin Qingqing was only at the level of a one-star mid-stage, and he definitely couldn't resist the attack of a third-order demon beast, An Xu saw that there was danger in the rear, so he hurriedly charged back to rescue.
Under Lin Qingqing's gritted teeth, An Xu finally rushed to their side and stopped in front of the Wind Demon Wolf, and at this time, Fanny also solved her opponent and waved the giant sword to wrap it up.
Seeing that his companion was dead, the third-order Wind Demon Wolf was furious, and raised its head and let out a deafening scream.
Lao Wang hid behind Doudou, saw the scene of his eyes, and hurriedly reminded loudly: "Be careful, this wolf is a social creature, it is calling for helpers!" ”
"Speed up and don't give it time." An Xu's face changed, and he swung his short sword and rushed towards the Wind Demon Wolf.
