Chapter 8: Magic Crocodile

The Magic Crocodile, with a body length of more than 10 meters and a weight of more than 3 tons, is a silver-level monster that inhabits the Lake of Magic, and is good at quietly approaching prey resting by the lake without them noticing.

Magic crocodiles only live in the Lake of Mana, which is something that every player knows, but because this monster has little experience and thick skin and high combat power, normal players will rarely come into contact with them unless they are doing tasks.

Locke has never encountered it once in the game era, after all, the Lake of Magic is only for novices, and when he first entered the game, he had friends with him, so he naturally didn't have to worry about energy supplies.

But now......

"Help!!"

The calm blue lake was rough at the moment, and the adventurers who had been swimming and playing in it were screaming and swimming desperately towards the shore.

Boom β€”β€”!!

The huge figure rushed out of the water again, and two more unlucky eggs became food.

"Get ashore! Hurry! ”

The two men, who had been talking under the Locke tree, hurriedly ran towards the shore, and then desperately pulled the person out of the water, and after a while, everyone successfully landed.

Seeing his subordinates trembling in white cloths, the mercenary captain sighed helplessly, and after the deputy next to him tapped the number of people and whispered in his ear, the team leader sighed even louder, and then looked up at the pale survivors in front of him and said: "The loss of 5 brothers this time is a lesson, and you must not be so hasty in the future!" ”

Locke looked at the group of people under the tree, looked up at the lake, and then shook his head with a smile, Are you safe now?? Not necessarily.

Boom β€”β€”!!

The huge crocodile was probably hungry and crazy, so it rushed directly to the shore from the water, rushed out nearly 10 meters away, and instantly flattened a person to the ground, and then grabbed the nearest guy and shook it twice and swallowed it directly.

Those who had just listened to the captain's lecture suddenly screamed and ran away, and their leader was also frightened and sat on the ground, and the crocodile quickly rushed towards the mercenary captain after swooping several guys in a row......

Locke watched quietly from the tree, he had no intention of making a move, after all, the silver-level magic crocodile was a wild little boss, and if he went directly to the hard steel, he would suffer a lot without supplies and teammates.

But then he made a new discovery.

"Huh......?"

Locke narrowed his eyes slightly, staring closely at the back of the crocodile, which was emitting a dazzling blue light, almost exactly like the one in the lake, and the entire giant monster more than 10 meters long looked like a large energy-saving lamp glowing with blue light from a distance.

β€œ...... Magic Crocodile ...... Magic Crocodile ...... That's how it ......" Locke looked ahead, muttered to himself for a while, and was suddenly ecstatic, "I see?!! ”

The castle is saved!

Magic crocodile, a crocodile that exudes magical energy, in fact, the fountain of magic power does not produce magical power, what really forms the sky-high energy is the crocodile itself, yes, as their name suggests, the food they eat is converted into magical energy, which is used to attract magical beasts or high-level humans to approach.

It's like pitcher plants, which have a sweet aroma and are used to attract insects to throw themselves into the net.

Locke looked at the lake, and there was still a blue light in the distance, which meant that there was not only one in the lake, no wonder this crocodile only grows in the Magic Spring, the truth is: it is precisely because of their existence that it can be called the Magic Spring.

"Can we put it in our underground water?" Locke casually asked the elf inside him, and then watched the crocodile on the ground slowly crawl towards the mercenary captain who was already paralyzed with fright in front.

"Uh...... If you're going to get it in, I don't know if there's going to be any other creatures in that place. ”

In the huge underground water area in the Demon King City, there used to be a variety of complex aquatic monsters, and basically all of them were demonic creatures, after all, the water area is a stronghold, which is used to defend against invaders.

However, in the last battle to destroy the city, the enemy poured holy water into the water, and as a result, all the demons in the water were vaporized in an instant, which means that there is nothing left in the underground area of the entire castle except water.

Another point to mention is that because the castle has been unmanaged for many years, the water in the water has been in a relationship of self-circulation and has never been renewed, and the effect of the holy water has survived until now, in other words, it is no longer possible to raise demons there.

The Magic Crocodile is not a demon, it is a serious amphibian reptile, and because of this, the holy water is not only useless to it, but can also have a healing effect.

If it can be successfully raised, it will be regarded as a big battle force for the future city defense.

Who can beat a large crocodile with rough skin and thick flesh that can be infinitely healed in the water?

As soon as he thought of this, Locke suddenly became passionate, looking at the behemoth below that was about to eat people, his eyes also became hot, no matter what, get it!

At this time, the hideous giant crocodile stared at the glowing lizard eyes and slowly approached the humans in front of them, and the mercenaries were shocked and unable to move.

"Captain!"

"Run, Captain!!"

The subordinates scattered around screamed loudly, they wanted to go over to help, but the arrows in their hands couldn't even break the skin of this monster, let alone melee combat.

Are you going to finish......

The mercenary captain looked at the blue light monster that was getting closer and closer, and he couldn't control his body, so he could only close his eyes in the end, praying that it wouldn't hurt so much when he was eaten.

Bangβ€”β€”!!

A streamer of light slammed straight into the crocodile's back in an arc, and the sudden blow instantly smashed the monster to the ground.

Roarβ€”β€”!!

The crocodile screamed and began to crawl around, while tilting its head high and opening its mouth to bite the thing off its head, but when it found that it was useless, it immediately shook its body and began to rush towards the lake.

Locke, who was on the crocodile's back, grabbed the hilt of the sword that was inserted into the crocodile's neck with one hand so that he would not be thrown off, this guy's defense was really too high, and a sword piercing its life gate actually had no effect on it!

Locke glanced up at the lake that was getting closer and closer in front of him, and immediately shouted, "Shadow erosion!" ”

In an instant, the sharp sword that had been inserted into its neck was enveloped in a dark shadow, and the entire crawling crocodile immediately stumbled and fell heavily to the ground, and then began to roll all over the ground with a loud roar.

The Black Knight's auxiliary skills: Lock the door, detect the weak points of creatures, increase the critical strike chance, and Shadow Erosion is a magic skill learned from the second-order magic guide book, the middle will produce weakness, curse, continuous blood loss, if it is a biological system, there will be increased pain, and paralysis and other effect bonuses.

Watching the behemoth in front of him move more and more slowly, the blue light on his body is getting darker and darker, and the whole head is gradually blackening - although it is of the same level, Locke paralyzed it with a single skill, which shows that the tricks of the demon system have an overwhelming advantage over the biological system, which is especially obvious in the world after reality......

The most important thing is that this world has not yet launched demonic spells! Locke was the first and only one to use!

Looking at the monster that kept panting in front of him, Locke knew that this 'energy engine' was in hand! (To be continued)
