Chapter 161: Crystal-tailed Beast
All hands are armed with weapons in their hands, ready to fight. The pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info warrior walked in the front with a knife to open the way, the mage's body was the most vulnerable, in the middle, the healer team was surrounded by everyone in the center, and behind the hall was Wren and several archers.
This eight-person squad covers four professions: combat, law, herding, and archery, and Lyle holds a shield in his left hand and is a meat shield warrior.
Lyle glanced back at the team and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if only the three of Ren were also part of this team. What his squad lacks most at the moment is powerful attacks, and it is clear that Wren can perfectly compensate for their shortcomings.
With such a team, coupled with Lyle's years of experience, he is confident that he can come and go freely in this Warcraft Forest!
It was much darker, and the huge trunks of trees obscured the sky, and the snow covered it, and sometimes Wren mistook it for late night. In this regard, Lyle is worthy of being an old bird, and took out a few pieces of fluorescent stone and sent them to everyone.
After about a dozen miles, Lyle made a 'shhhh Wren quietly walked to the front and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"Look here." Lyle crouched down and pointed to a snowy field, frowning and thinking about something.
In the Warcraft Forest, even if there is a canopy to cover it, the snow layer on the ground is five centimeters thick, and there will be a deep imprint when you step on it, and Wren saw the huge footprints on the ground, and instinctively smelled a trace of danger.
There is such a saying about Warcraft, that a large body is not necessarily the strongest, but it must be strong. The huge paw print on the snow is half the size of a washbasin, and it goes straight through the snow, which shows how heavy the weight of the body is.
"What kind of monster footprints are these?" Wren and the others don't know anything about this, and can only count on the experienced Lyle.
"It should be... Storm Bear, right? Lyle didn't seem to be sure, and said with a deep groan.
"No, yes, it's a crystal-tailed beast."
A weak voice came, and everyone turned their heads to look at Wu who was making a sound, and the latter's face was flushed, and he quickly put on a hat behind his clothes, covering his face and not daring to look at everyone.
Several other mercenaries also came up to observe, and Lyle looked at it carefully for a while before patting his head and smiling: "Good guy, I preconceived that it was a common tyrannical bear, and this footprint is indeed a crystal-tailed beast!" The paw prints of the two are very similar, but the claws of the crystal-tailed beast are triangular, which is still different from that of the Storm-armored bear. ”
Xiaomei sighed twice and patted Wu's back hard, "Good job!" An ordinary word of praise made Wu's face even more embarrassed. Wren caught a glimpse of Xiaomei's movements, and said in his heart where was Xiaomei, who was lying on his shoulder and the little bird was human? Sure enough, this is her nature.
"Lyle, what is this crystal-tailed beast? It's amazing to see you guys. Wren asked.
The answer is an archer, he is well-mannered, but not like a mercenary, according to Lyle, he is an encyclopedia in the squad, and he is especially fond of studying Warcraft.
"Speaking of crystal-tailed beasts, they are demons in the eyes of ordinary mercenary teams. This guy is a big crystal scorpion on the outside, with a violent temperament, likes to attack other creatures, and has a very strong sense of territory, with a level of twenty in his childhood and thirty in adulthood. Looking at the size of the footprints, it is estimated that this crystal-tailed beast has reached the maturity for a while, and its strength is not comparable to ordinary level 30. ”
The archer continued to gush: "The crystal-tailed beast is a very rare kind of magical beast, I have been a mercenary for more than ten years and it is the first time I have seen its footprints, there is a crystal in the tail of this thing, it is a precious material, even if it is eaten raw, it can increase some of its defense!" The crystal core of a crystal-tailed beast on the market will cost 20,000 gold coins, to say the least! ”
Twenty thousand! Wren was shocked when he heard this, the reward for a lesson of dragon fruit was only one thousand, and this crystal-tailed beast was worth twenty thousand? Wren's heart is itching, he's just a novice mercenary, and he doesn't plan to do this for a long time, the task is given up to discredit the resume Wren doesn't care, if he can kill this crystal-tailed beast...
Lyle coughed twice, and looking at Wren's absent-minded appearance, he knew that this terrifying young man was fighting the idea of the Crystal-tailed Beast.
"There is nothing we can do about this crystal-tailed beast, judging from the footprints, this is still a 'master' monster."
"What do you mean by that?" Wren humbly asked, in his eyes there were eight of them, with distinct professions, and it would not be much of a problem to kill a level 30 demonic beast in battle.
Lyle shook his head in his heart, young people are young people, and no matter how strong they are, they will inevitably be arrogant. "The Crystal Tailed Beast is not an ordinary level 30, this kind of monster is naturally strong, and two human level 30 can't deal with him! Even if we are lucky enough to deal with it, we will have at least more than half of the casualties, and with this number of people, we don't know if we can get out of the Warcraft Forest alive! On the periphery of the Warcraft Forest, there are some black hands who specialize in robbery, if you are not strong enough, you can't even save your life! ”
These words completely extinguished the flame in Wren's heart, and it made sense that Lyle was able to spend more than ten years in the crisis-ridden Warcraft Forest. What he thought was too superficial, maybe Wren didn't admit that half of the casualties could solve the crystal-tailed beast, but the black hand was really not easy to pass.
When chatting with his guild mates in Thousand Snow City, he mentions the hated black hand. The Black Hand are some bastards with a little strength and laziness, hiding on the outskirts of the Warcraft Forest, specializing in robbing those mercenaries who have returned from a good harvest but are wounded. The city lord of Thousand Snow City also announced that the black hand's practice still triggered the city rules, and he sent the city guards to clean it up, but it didn't take long for the black hand to spring up like mushrooms after a rain, and he couldn't finish cleaning it.
There are even rampant black hands forming an organization to collect deposits from mercenaries to ensure that they can come out of the Warcraft Forest safely.
Obviously, Lyle's team is very disgusted with black hands and has never paid a deposit.
Wren acquiesced to Lyle's statement, "However, what do you mean that this monster has a master?" ”
"Hehe, you don't understand. It takes a lot of experience and knowledge to see the trick. The encyclopedic archer took Wren a few steps forward, pointed to another huge footprint, and said, "Look at the gap between the two footprints." ”
The distance is about a meter, but what's the matter? Wren couldn't see the slightest. In fact, the archers did not expect Wren to say a reason, on the contrary, he would be surprised if Wren could say something.
"Its steps are very fast, its footprints are very deep, not only through the snow, but also on the ground, which indicates that it is being chased." The encyclopedia is usually silent, and when it comes to the knowledge of Warcraft, it opens the conversation.
Wren turned his head to check the footprints, and found that as the encyclopedia says, Yellow Fang and Xiaomei both secretly looked at this guy, people can't look good, and sometimes, a smart mind is also a kind of power in the Warcraft Forest.
But Wren is also smart, and asks inferentially, "How do you know it's not chasing prey?" "yes, maybe this thing is in a hurry to run for its life?
The encyclopedia smiled mysteriously and said, "Intuition." (To be continued.) )
