Chapter 40: The King of Scorpions
It may be that Lingmei's new regulations have worked, and then Ling Jue also began to join the battle of several people, and not only second-level monsters, but even first-level young scorpions often see him fighting hard, with him joining, the pressure of several people facing a nest of monsters gradually disappeared. Needless to say, the value of the second-level beast core, even the accumulation of the first-level beast core is a lot of wealth, and Ling Jue is reluctant to let all this wealth flow into the hands of others.
In this way, under the push of several people all the way, it only took half a day to completely sweep away this scorpion lair, and at this time, there was only one monster left in the entire lair, that is, the lord sleeping in the deepest depths, the king of the scorpion.
"I'm about to face the King of Earth Scorpions, do you have any questions about the previous tactics?" Ling Mei asked one last time as she looked at the few people in front of her. At this time, several people have come to enter the only hole in the center, as long as they pass through this last dark tunnel, they will have to face the most powerful Earth Scorpion King. This was already the last chance for several people to prepare.
"Got it. Zhao Changfeng and the others replied softly, Lingmei nodded, and the group began to carefully dive into the deepest depths.
"Something doesn't feel right. Just as a few people were walking in the dark cave, Zhao Changfeng frowned, compared to the rest of the lair, the air here was unusually dignified.
"That's true. Hu Liang and the others said thoughtfully, although the one who was sleeping here was the most powerful monster Earth Scorpion King, but this pressure was beyond the scope of everyone knowing, and it had already made several people faintly feel suffocated.
"It's here. In front of a corner, Lingmei suddenly stretched out her hand to stop a few people. She motioned for a few people to wait where they were, and then she carefully stuck her head out of the corner and looked inside.
"This ...... This is!" Lingmei immediately let out a soft cry as soon as she looked inside, and Zhao Changfeng in the distance couldn't help frowning at this time, because he found that Lingmei's pupils were locked at this time, as if she had seen something terrifying, and then she reacted in the next second, and hurriedly covered her mouth with her hands.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Changfeng said lightly, and then rushed to Lingmei, poked his head out with a few people, and looked inside.
"Shhhh
At the end of the dark cave, there was a huge clearing, and on it, there was a ground scorpion sleeping, and this ground scorpion was different from everything that the previous people had encountered. Its body is very huge, a pair of black iron-like big scorpions are two meters in size, the huge body of the second-level ground scorpion that Zhao Changfeng encountered before is simply small compared to it, this big cao can easily cut it in half.
And what is even more peculiar is that at this time, there is a special pattern on the body of this scorpion king, covering its entire back, forming a unique symbol, and as it breathes, it is still flashing with a scarlet shimmer. In the flicker of this blood-colored symbol, a suffocating aura continued to emanate from it.
"What's wrong with everyone?" Zhao Changfeng turned around and asked suspiciously after discovering the abnormalities of several people.
"This is the king's blood!" Ling Jue's eyes showed a solemn expression, and he also forgot the contradiction with Zhao Changfeng at this time.
"What is the king's blood?" Zhao Changfeng just wanted to ask, but was interrupted by Lingmei on the side.
"Silence!" her expression was fierce, and then she said to Zhao Changfeng: "I'll tell you these things later, you just need to know that the monster with that kind of blood-colored texture is not something we can deal with." ”
"I advocate retreating, what do you think?" Lingmei glanced inside with reluctant eyes, and then turned to a few people and said.
"Retreat. Hu Liang and Su Yang nodded without thinking, and Ling Jue on the side also gritted his teeth, and then said helplessly: "Retreat." ”
Several people reached a consensus, and then cast all their eyes on Zhao Changfeng, who did not say a word.
"It's too late. Zhao Changfeng squatted motionless on the ground, staring at the deepest part of the cave with a pair of eyes, and after a long time, he slowly shook his head and said solemnly.
At this time, in Zhao Changfeng's eyes, the king of the earth scorpion who had been sleeping had already woken up, but he deliberately did not show it, and his scarlet eyes stared at a few people, full of strong banter.
"Run!" Lingmei also knew something when she saw Zhao Changfeng's appearance, and at this time she didn't look inside, but shouted, and several people couldn't care about hiding their actions at this time, and they each used all their strength to run out. As long as they escape from this not too long tunnel, a few people can enter the outside of the scorpion nest in all directions, and then a few people can scatter and escape, at least to increase the chances of survival.
"Tss Then I saw its six giant feet slam on the ground, which made the entire nest tremble, and then it was like a huge phantom quickly rushing out, easily overtaking several people, blocking the only way out.
"It's too late, go to war!" Lingmei's pupils shrank, and then she drank without the slightest hesitation.
"Go to war, fight with this brute. Hu Liang yelled, since he had lost the opportunity to escape, he could only fight hard.
"We can't beat it. Ling Jue was full of remorse, and at this time, he seemed to be frightened when he saw the behemoth in front of him, and kept muttering to himself.
"I dragged it with mental power. Lingmei drank, and then in her pupils, a yellow light suddenly lit up, and then she saw a transparent ripple in the space quickly drill towards the head of the king of earth scorpions.
"Roar!"
There was a hint of sarcasm in the eyes of the king of the earth scorpion, and he roared at this time, there was a unique power from it, even if Zhao Changfeng and the others had been prepared, his head was still faintly painful by its brain shock.
"Oh no! It's too high-level, and my mental power can't affect it. Lingmei's face turned pale, and a trace of blood slowly flowed from the corner of her mouth.
"Ling Jue, quickly use the Qingyang Sword Light to cover its vision. Lingmei drank to Ling Jue.
"Damn, this brute isn't something we can deal with. Ling Jue gritted his teeth, and then a ruthless color rose in his eyes, only to hear the sound of "Huh!", a silver-white long sword was pulled out by him.
"Qingyang is in the air!"
Ling Jue shouted angrily, then jumped up and flew towards the King of Earth Scorpions, at this time, a dazzling white light appeared on the silver-white long sword, and in just an instant, a white ball of light the size of a skull appeared on the tip of the sword, and then suddenly exploded in the pitch-black space.
"Roar!" This trick really worked, and the king of the earth scorpion was illuminated by this strong light, and couldn't help but let out a painful roar, blocking all the two big crows in front of him at this time, and he lost any resistance in an instant.
"Good opportunity!" Hu Liang and Su Yang's eyes lit up, and then the two of them went into battle together, Su Yang first smashed a hammer on its hind leg, and then Hu Liang dodged, and a long serrated knife unfolded like a white light, slashing at the hind leg again. This move seemed to have been practiced countless times, and the two attacks fell into one place without any difference.
In fact, these two people have been working together for a long time, these two moves have a big blow, a sharp blow, and the monsters that are hit by these two moves are often either dead or disabled, and the two have killed a lot of powerful monsters with this move. At this time, this invincible move hit the most vulnerable hind leg of the Scorpion King, but there were only two muffled sounds, and only some white marks appeared on the scorpion feet, which had always seemed fragile, and other than that, it was basically unharmed.
"Damn, Ling Jue, this bastard actually ran away. Just when the two of them looked frightened, Hu Liang turned his eyes, and saw Ling Jue, who was still fighting the same enemy a moment ago, jumped high at this time, and was about to cross over the ground scorpion. At this time, I realized that Ling Jue's previous action was just a false shot, and his real purpose was to leave everyone and run away alone.
"Stupid, do you really think we can deal with this monster? I'll go first, and you can ask for your own blessings. Ling Jue knew that everyone had discovered their purpose, so he simply stopped hiding it and opened his mouth to drink.
"Roar!"
An angry roar came, and it turned out that the king of the earth scorpion, who had been affected by the strong light before, recovered, and only then did he realize that he had fallen into the scheme of several people, and he couldn't help but be angry. Two huge big claws smashed down on Hu Liang and the others, and the thick scorpion tail was thrown out quickly, sweeping towards Ling Jue in mid-air.
"Boom!" Hu Liang and Su Yang kicked the ground violently, and finally dodged the fatal blow in a thrilling way, while Ling Jue, who was in the air, did not dodge because he had no force, and was swept by the scorpion tail. Half of Ling Jue's body collapsed suddenly, and then he heard a sound like popping beans, and the blow almost shattered all the bones on half of his body.
"Poof!" Ling Jue spurted out a mouthful of blood, and after being so seriously injured, he didn't fall down on the spot, but instead flew towards the entrance of the cave faster with this force, and it only took a breath to disappear from the sight of several people.
"You deserve it, it's good to be dead!" Lingmei's silver teeth clenched, and at this time, she cursed after seeing Ling Jue seriously injured.
Zhao Changfeng, who was looking at her on the side, showed a strange look in his eyes, "Women are really a group of strange creatures, and now their lives are difficult to protect, and they still have the heart to curse others." Zhao Changfeng couldn't help but think in his heart.
"Lingmei, you will inject all your spiritual power into me in a moment. Zhao Changfeng opened his mouth and drank to Lingmei.
"You don't have mental energy, so your brain will be damaged. Lingmei said anxiously.
"You don't care, just give it all to me. Zhao Changfeng interrupted Lingmei's words with a light snort, and then looked right at Hu Liang and the others, "The two of you are ready now, and you will hide in a safe place directly with Lingmei later." ”
Zhao Changfeng, who had arranged all this, finally let out a sigh of relief, and then raised his head and looked at the King of Earth Scorpions who was roaring madly.
"Okay, the next step is the battle between us, are you ready to face life and death?" Zhao Changfeng muttered, and then a hand slowly stretched out behind his back, and at this time, the long knife behind him was finally firmly held in his hand.
