Chapter 147: Carpet Search
The area with a radius of more than 10 kilometers is not big. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
If you want to find a large magical beast, it is relatively easy. If it goes well, it may not take a few hours to find it.
But if it is replaced by a sapling that is currently only the size of a palm, it will be much more difficult.
A slight blind spot that you don't pay attention to may be where it grows.
In particular, when there are at least three spatial cracks of different sizes in this area, and there are a large number of dangerous magical beasts, the difficulty of searching will increase by 10 times!
Fang Jin, who knew this well, first drove the storm griffin to hover at a low altitude, and made a preliminary search through the cracks in the trees and sparsely vegetated places.
At the same time, it is also hoped to use the coercion of the storm griffin to temporarily drive away the demonic beasts entrenched in this woodland as much as possible. Even if it only scares a part, it may be of great help.
This plan is undoubtedly feasible, but it is ......
A noon time passed in a linear search.
Under Fang Jin's control, the huge griffon, flapping its wings, swept over the dense trees and cast a terrifying shadow on the ground in the sunlight. The turbulent air currents blew through the canopy of branches, making a rattling sound, alarming the demonic beasts in the forest.
In the field of vision, several valuable twilight plane plants have appeared.
Some of them obviously have only grown long and have no value for picking, but Fang Jin is not for nothing after all.
For example, a lily flower that resembles a dandelion!
This magical plant has a short growth cycle and a bitter taste, but it has a strong stimulating effect on the spirit. After the appearance of the sub-class, the pharmacist often uses it in the recipe when refining some low-level mana potions.
Just one plant is enough to refine a whole dozen potions, which is worth a lot of money.
After ordering the Storm Griffin to fall, Fang Jin carefully finished picking and put it into the magic prop [Mystic Flower Field] that looked like a flower pot.
If it was before, there was no deputy position and no special means of preservation, he would definitely not have adopted it. Because it won't be long before the magic of the lily flowers picked will fade over time. But this time, in order to transplant the saplings of the golden apple tree, Fang Jin specially got a mysterious flower field from the black-robed merchant that was specially used for the cultivation and transfer of magic plants, so he naturally had no such concerns.
After the lily flower, Fang Jin found another moonlight grass that could be ripe.
But these harvests can only be regarded as a small windfall for Fang Jin, and their value is less than one percent of the golden apple tree.
A little unwilling, he searched at low altitude until night was about to fall, flew back and forth twice, and finally had to give up.
For the time being, we retreated to a cave on a cliff more than ten kilometers away, where I spent a long night.
Finally waiting for the dawn of the next day, Fang Jin realized that it was almost impossible to find the sapling of the golden apple tree by searching in the air and the most trouble-free way.
You can only search in person!
As soon as he thought of the demonic beast he saw during the day yesterday, he couldn't help but feel a little numb on his scalp.
However, in order to get the [Instantaneous Step] skill book and the great value of the Golden Apple Tree itself, he could only make a horizontal heart and start a ground search from east to west from the corner of this crescent-shaped forest belt!
As for the summoned Storm Griffin, it was impossible to follow him due to the limitations of the dense woods. But Fang Jin didn't want to break away from its protection, so he left the Storm Griffin to hover over him alone.
Although this can't completely eliminate the attack of the demonic beasts, it can still at least scare some of the demonic beasts.
In case of irresistible danger, he only needs to break through to a relatively open area, and he can immediately let the griffon land and fly away on it.
With such preparations, Fang Jin felt a lot more at ease.
Stepping on the fluffy dead branches and leaves, he carefully began to search.
Some magic plants also have special characteristics in their juvenile years, but the Golden Apple Tree does not. Before it grows to its first fruit, it is not much different from a normal apple tree, but at best it is stronger.
Thanks to this, the golden apple tree in the previous life was able to grow smoothly.
But it was precisely this reason that greatly increased the difficulty for Fang Jin to discover it. Moreover, he could clearly feel that there was more than one malicious gaze in the forest secretly watching him.
Thanks to the swagger of the whole day yesterday, and the storm griffin that was still hovering above him, those monsters couldn't figure out the details of him, and they didn't dare to make a rash move.
But after all, not all monsters are afraid of the storm griffon that chirps from time to time in the air.
Like, the Shadow Viper!
This is a LV14 monster, the lowest level is also a strengthened level, and it has an excellent ability to collect breath from nature. In dimly lit places, it's easy to blend in with your surroundings, create a stealth-like effect, and then launch a ferocious sneak attack on enemies that are inadvertently close.
And that's where the name Shadow Pit Viper comes from.
If you change to most of the other professions, you may not be able to escape the fate of being attacked in the face of the shadow pit viper that has entered the latent state.
But the Holy Swordsman is undoubtedly an exception.
The special passive [Holy Light Affinity] obtained when he took office gave Fang Jin a very keen perception of evil and shadows.
Coupled with the fact that he himself maintained an extremely high level of vigilance, the moment he approached the Shadow Pit Viper within five meters, his instinct and intuition were immediately touched and he began to give a silent warning.
The next moment, the shadow viper's body twisted, and the burst popped out, taking the initiative to attack him!
This sneak attack, which is still accumulated, can be called a rabbit's fall, from the current to the bite next to Fang Jin's neck, it only takes half a second before and after.
Even if other professionals can sense something bad in advance, they won't have time to do anything about it.
It's a pity that this shadow pit viper is facing Fang Jin!
As soon as the refraction opened, the outermost invisible shield directly blocked the pit viper's sneak attack, and by the way, 35% of the damage was returned!
You know, this stealth sneak attack has a full 150 Shadow damage bonus.
Counting the Shadow Viper's own attack power and toxin, as well as the level coefficient difference that is 3 levels higher than Fang Jin, this blow is enough to knock out more than 300 of his HP!
The invisible shield that suddenly appeared made the pit viper a little dazed, and he didn't understand why his sneak attack didn't succeed, but he was greatly hurt.
In this moment, Fang Jin had already taken the opportunity to launch a counterattack.
The Bloody Blade slashed a cross in the air and flew towards the Shadow Viper. At the same time, the holy power was infused into the blade, causing the sword body of the battle blade to glow with a golden light.
With the blessing of the blade of light, this cross slash was accurate and fierce on the seven inches of the shadow viper.
Although it was 3 levels worse, Fang Jin's attack still hit this poisonous snake hard.
Fang Jin took this opportunity to take a step back, raised his hand to baptize himself, and waited for him.
The characteristics of the Shadow Pit Viper dictate that it is not a wise decision to actively attack it. On the contrary, it is the safest way to fight back when it is exposed!
