Duran's solution is simple, which is to take advantage of the poisonous anemone's slow movement speed to grind it to death. Generally speaking, melee classes will have a headache when encountering poisonous anemones, and although Duran is an assassin, he also has some ranged weapons.

Thinking of this, he quickly took out the Assassin's Crossbow from the little demon's tail, this weapon Duran used very little, but the basic skills of training in the Tower of Shadows were still there, he tried to adjust it a few times, and it felt not bad.

The Assassin's Crossbow uses standard crossbow arrows, each of which is expensive to build - because the Fernand Continent has nothing to buy, and Duran has to spend amethyst to buy it in the Evil Shop, which is one of the reasons why he uses this weapon less often. After all, Duran, who is extremely sensitive to numbers, has an instinctive resistance to inefficient and costly consumables, but now, he has to use this long-range strike weapon.

The Assassin's Crossbow has a good range and accurate arc, and to be fair, the Supreme Council is a bit of a black heart, but the quality of the goods it provides is nothing to say. While Kate was unconscious, Duran opened the evil contract and bought a small dozen standard crossbow arrows, and shot a few from afar, and found that the effect was quite good.

These thick tentacles were extremely agile compared to their size, but they were so large that Duran barely needed to aim, and he raised his hand to pour out the crossbow arrows. After a short time, half of the crossbow bolts were fired, and the tentacle that Duran had used for the experiment fell limply to the ground, appearing to have lost all its vitality.

The cautious Duran also used a scout just in case, and found that the tentacle health of the poisonous anemone was calculated separately, and the scouting results showed that the tentacle had less than ten health points left, but it was slowly recovering.

Of course, Duran won't give it a chance to recover, so he went up and simply made up for it, completely ending the life of this tentacle.

The rest of the process was lackluster, a war of attrition with little skill that caused Duran's amethyst to dwindle rapidly, and the only thing that could ease his pain was that each of the poisonous anemone's tentacles contributed good experience, and it seemed that these tentacles were separate from the anemone's parent in terms of health and experience calculations. Even though he has now reached level 27, his experience is still growing rapidly, and Duran can only comfort himself that he is spending money to increase his experience.

Soon, a full seven sets of crossbow arrows were consumed, and a total of eighteen tentacles were all tortured and killed by Duran from afar - this is the embarrassment of the poisonous anemone, if you can't kill the enemy in the ambush, it is easy for the opponent to use long-range weapons or magic to kill you. Of course, the reason why Duran was able to achieve his goal so smoothly was to a certain extent because he took advantage of the weapon, and even if the average adventurer encounters a poisonous anemone, he may not be able to counter it even if he can get out, the reason is that the bow and arrow in their hands may not be able to break the extremely high defense of the sea anemone's tentacles. The Assassin's Crossbow attack was already high, not to mention that the professional crossbow arrows provided by the Supreme Council had various penetrating and killing enchantment effects, which weakened the defense of the sea anemone's tentacles to a considerable extent, which allowed Duran to finally torture this enemy alive.

Eighteen tentacles fell to the ground on their stomachs, but Duran looked like he sighed - he was already short of amethyst because he was in debt, and now he was even more nervous. I don't know how many poisonous anemones I will encounter along the way, and if I push it all the way in this way, I can't tell if Sean hasn't been saved, and he will go bankrupt first.

The only good news is that in the process, the demon warlock is slowly waking up. After all, she was only slightly restrained by a tentacle, and the amount of neurotoxin ingested was not much, and the paralysis was lifted in about fifteen minutes, and she basically returned to normal.

"Duran? These、You did it all alone? Kate struggled to get up from where she was, looked at the tentacle corpses on the ground, and asked in some surprise.

Duran turned around and asked, "Do you think there are still people to help me in this kind of ghost place?" ”

Kate shook her head, and she walked over quickly, "I just don't think it's believing. ”

"Is it completely dead?" It can be seen that the silver-haired warlock is still quite afraid of the poisonous anemone, after all, he has just been in close contact with that tentacle and was put down by the neurotoxin released by it, and he is afraid that he will have palpitations if he changes to any other person. So she didn't get too close, but asked cautiously on tiptoe.

Duran shook his head and said, "Not yet, these are just its minions." We've got to find the Mother Body that's buried in the ground. Ah, found it! ”

As he was walking, he suddenly leaned down, and the scimitar in his hand stabbed hard at the stone beside him. The Scout skill is displayed in the nearby area, and this is the most likely place where the mother anemone is hidden, as it is the center of the eighteen tentacles as a whole.

Sure enough, with Duran's fatal sword, the stone suddenly became soft. The vampire scimitar sank in, and in the blink of an eye, thick dirty blood flowed down the hilt like the most vicious abscess, emitting a dizzying stench.

Duran held his breath, and the contract assistance system prompted:

[Toxic Anemone Mother, Health: 546/657, Continuously Damaged]

Duran mercilessly drew his scimitar and slashed down one after the other, beckoning Kate to support her with the fire of Infernal Fire.

Under the fierce attack of the two, the mother poisoned anemone that lost all its ability to resist lost its health and finally ended its sinful life after three minutes.

Looking at the 6,000 experience points displayed in the contract assistance system, Duran finally breathed a sigh of relief, the poisonous anemone is a useless thing except experience points - its neurotoxin will lose its effect once it leaves the body for two hours, and the rest of the parts are not popular with humans, if the experience is lower, Duran is simply making a loss.

With all this done, the two of them took a short break before moving on.

With the precedent of being attacked by poisonous anemones before, Duran became more careful, not only guarding against the team of Orser pathogens that could appear at any time, but also guarding against the poisonous anemones that might be lurking under his feet.

The path leading to the temple complex is winding and rugged, and it may not seem far, but it is actually very winding, and the two men have been making a circuitous progress.

After about an hour and a half, during which time Duran had taken out a small troop of Orser pathogens and two lurking poisonous anemones - both times with the help of Kate's Infernal Fire had saved a lot of crossbow arrows and had little physical exertion - and they had followed the strange trail across a natural rock pile, and the massive complex finally opened its arms to Duran and Kate, albeit only a corner, but it was also terrifying enough.

Beneath the stone pile is a dense stone wall, with palaces and temples lining it, a few old iron gates half-hidden, and climbing vines growing in the dark covering most of the walls silently. Several stone statues collapsed to the side, and their horizontal heads were gouged out of their eyes, which made people look a little chilled. A layer of dark blue sky covered the sky above the complex, and a terrifying scream was faintly heard from the distant clouds, and suddenly a strong wind blew, blowing on the faces of Duran and Kate, and a solemn atmosphere arose.

"How do we get in? It's like a labyrinth, and I'm afraid that there is a possibility of encountering monsters from the Othur plane at any time. We don't know where Sean was caught, or what they're going to do to him......" Kate's brow furrowed, her hands clasped to her chest, looking worried.

Duran still tapped his right index finger on his temple: "You're right, if you use ordinary methods, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find your ex-boyfriend before Orsher's monsters do it to him." ”

"We've got to find someone to lead the way."

……

In the depths of the temple, in a wide stone room, the purple-clothed priest straightened his clothes and said calmly: "So, the invaders mentioned by the gods before have killed nearly a quarter of our men?" ”

On the floor in front of him was a tall man half-kneeling, whose body was covered with thick sarcomas and terrifying blood vessels, and countless Orser larvae wriggled in his veins, and even his heart was filled with the white maggots.

The man nodded and said, "Yes, and according to the report from my men, they have already killed in front of the east gate of the temple. ”

"Oh? So fast? The purple-clothed priest Erden snorted: "How many of them are there?" ”

The man replied awkwardly, "Two ......"

Elden glared angrily: "Two men killed a quarter of our manpower? Could it be that he is a master of the golden rank? Is he the leader of the black? ”

The man shook his head and said, "It seems to be a boy who doesn't know where he came from, and there is another woman." ”

"A boy, a woman?" Elden pondered for a while, and he waved his hand dissatisfiedly: "You know, I am now fully preparing to test a new generation of Othur virus, that kid who just came back is in good physique, and is a good carrier for testing new viruses, I have to prepare a lot of things for him, and I don't have time to care about these two small characters." ”

"In this case, I'll give you two squads of Osser's pathogens, and you can personally lead people to kill the two of them - of course, it would be better if you could capture them alive, after all, the new generation of viruses is still very unstable, and more test samples are needed."

"Yes, sir!"

"Wait!" The purple-clothed priest suddenly said, "It suddenly occurred to me that those two people may have come because we had just caught this kid. ”

The man on the ground raised his head: "It is very likely that we have occupied this place for so long, and there has never been any intruder. Looks like he's supposed to be their buddy. ”

Erden suddenly sneered: "In this case, it is also a good thing to get their friends together. I've changed my mind, I don't need you to kill them directly, but ......"

After listening to this, the big man on the ground asked a few more detailed questions, and then respectfully withdrew from the stone chamber. (To be continued.) )
