087 Tentacles in the Lake
The fire continued to burn, and Girard could smell the air with a foul smell that almost knocked him out with his keen sense of smell. After a round www.biquge.info of waiting and confirming that no other snakes had survived, Li Xinghai finally landed from the air, but he still maintained the medium package in case of accidents.
After another period of time, Li Xinghai finally relaxed his vigilance for the time being, and turned to walk in front of the werewolf who was still in a daze. The other party didn't seem to have reacted yet, still immersed in the battle with the snakes, and when he saw himself walking towards him, he still looked at him in a daze.
It wasn't until Li Xinghai gave him an order through the contract that the wolf reacted, couldn't help but gasp, and without waiting for Li Xinghai to give the second order, he immediately straightened his body, showing a very loyal look, and kept repeating some strange words in his mouth, and quickly led Li Xinghai and walked towards his lair.
Because Li Xinghai didn't know where his destination was, and he had never been to this forest, he didn't know where the other party would take him. Although there are restrictions on the slave contract, Li Xinghai can only let the other party take him to a certain destination, as for what route to choose halfway, this is not something that Li Xinghai can intervene in now, and he can't threaten the other party with words - the simple communication function provided by the contract is not yet able to achieve such a complex communication.
However, no matter what other plans this werewolf has in his heart, at least now he has been able to easily deal with those snakes, which means that the monsters on the periphery of this forest should theoretically still be within his ability, so Li Xinghai does not have to worry too much, he has come to a map that is not suitable for his current strength.
As time passed, Li Xinghai felt that he had followed the werewolf for a long time and walked a long distance, but in fact they had only advanced about 10 kilometers.
During this period, what surprised Li Xinghai was that there were no other monsters along the way to disturb him, and the surroundings were surprisingly quiet!
If the werewolf had the intention of putting himself to death, for example, the sudden attack of the snakes on him before was done by Girard in secret, in order to kill himself, then he should have more than one means.
But until now, he hadn't seen anything unusual in the vicinity. Li Xinghai not only felt happy, but also a little unhappy, because he felt that he had lost the opportunity to show his skills in front of Girard and move his muscles and bones by the way......
Most importantly, if he wants to know about the power of this forest, and then he hopes to settle here, he must first encounter some decent monsters. But the road was surprisingly calm, and there were no animal sounds except birds and insects.
Li Xinghai felt more and more that something was wrong, if it wasn't for the werewolf deliberately creating such a peaceful environment to let himself relax his vigilance, then another possibility that Li Xinghai would prefer to believe was that there was another boss-level existence here, so that no other creature nearby dared to move here!
Thinking of this, Li Xinghai immediately became excited. It doesn't matter if there are no monsters for him to practice now, as long as he can have a battle next, Li Xinghai is already very satisfied. When Girard saw Li Xinghai's suddenly excited expression, he was puzzled at first, and then he suddenly thought of something, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.
In fact, Girard does have his own plan, a plan to deal with an opponent who is stronger than him, to kill people with a knife through the equally powerful monsters that originally lived in the forest.
And the backup part of this plan is to bring Li Xinghai to this place - near a wetland. The ground in this area has become so wet that it is even beginning to be flooded. And further on, there is a lake that does not look good.
This unknown lake, although small in size, hides a small secret - many monsters who came here in search of food eventually disappeared into this lake for no apparent reason!
However, Girard knew what was going on, and he had almost lost his life near the lake. He was almost on the verge of death, but perhaps his life was not to be extinguished, and just as he was about to enter the lake to look for prey, he saw some mysterious monster appear in the lake, and pulled a rhinoceros-like creature near the water's edge into the water, and then there was no follow-up!
Only then did he realize the secret hidden in this lake - beneath the surface of the lake, there was probably a monster that was so large that even a creature as strong as a rhinoceros could pull it into the water and quickly deal with it!
So Girard used this lake and the monsters in it as his last resort to get rid of the powerful enemy. As for the snakes before, in fact, Li Xinghai wronged Girard a little, he has no deep relationship with these snakes, it's just the same reason, when he first wandered here, he discovered this secret, so he had the means to carry a snake scent with him, and then bring a strong enemy to this vicinity, and borrow a knife to kill people.
But he never thought that Li Xinghai would effortlessly break one of his life-saving methods, which made him feel very uneasy. If Li Xinghai discovers that monster next and defeats it easily in battle, then there is no doubt that he will become the object of suspicion!
Anyway, although he was asked to take the other party to his lair, he encountered so many monsters along the way, and it would feel very unreasonable to think about it, as if he had deliberately brought the other party to such a dangerous path.
Although he can't know Girard's inner thoughts, Li Xinghai can also see through the werewolf's nervous look that he is likely to encounter another battle next, and he may not even be able to fully control the other party, or he is worried that his Li Xinghai's victory rate is too high, for fear that he will find trouble with him afterwards.
When he saw the werewolf take himself to a lake, based on his previous experience and some books he had read in the virtual community, he already had a vague premonition that there was a very good possibility that something was hidden in this seemingly peaceful lake, so that Girard had the confidence to take the risk of being discovered by himself to bring himself to such a place.
Sure enough, although the change in the water surface was not very obvious at the beginning, Li Xinghai could still feel that the water surface of the lake began to make waves constantly, as if something was about to come out of it!
Sure enough, in the next moment, a white tentacle as thick as the snakes just now suddenly poked out from under the surface of the lake!
What made Gilard despair was not the first time he had seen the tentacle monster, in fact, he had already known the kind of creature in the water when he saw the rhinoceros being dragged into the water.
What really dashed his hopes was that Li Xinghai did not show the slightest shock after seeing such a scene, but reacted quickly, with a sneer on his face that made Girard shudder!
Seeing the opponent who suddenly appeared in front of him, Li Xinghai immediately understood the identity of his opponent. It's a tentacle monster that is somewhat similar to slimes in terms of physical characteristics, but it's much bigger than that small and fluffy monster, and it has a very strong resistance to physical attacks, so it's hard to escape the control of his tentacles with just physical struggle.
He'd heard of some players encountering monsters like this before, and the other party would quickly wrap their tentacles around the creatures on the shore and then pull them into the water to kill them!
Fortunately, this is only the world of the game, and those who are unfortunate enough to be pulled into the water will soon be resurrected and returned to human society, but the other monsters captured by the tentacle monsters are not so lucky. Most of them did not reach the level of the boss, which means that they have no chance of resurrection, and once they are pulled into the water, they are really dead!
So of course, Li Xinghai couldn't risk his life to try the power of the opponent's tentacles, and if the other party was stronger than he expected, it would be a big joke to capsize in the gutter.
Anyway, Li Xinghai now has a better choice to try these tentacles. He decides to make the scheming werewolf Gilard next to him pay for his two attempts to frame him!
Before the other party could react, he actually ordered Gilard to walk into the water by himself through a slave contract!
When he received this order from Li Xinghai, the werewolf was stunned. He didn't expect that the other party would do such a vicious thing, so that he would not be left with the slightest way back!
Although he had to admit that even a moment ago, after seeing Li Xinghai easily crack his own means, he still wanted to kill the other party through his other means. But even if he is framed by himself, Li Xinghai can at least have the ability to resist, so that he will not be forced to perish step by step like he is now!
