Chapter 136: Simple
"No, I can't. What if you fail......" Franco shook his head and said to Rondelo, "Captain, or I'll try it with Lacios." I can sneak in, and as long as Racios can immobilize the unicorn python with a petrified ray, I can kill it. ”
Before Londello could speak, Roy shook his head and said, "Mr. Franco, you can't sneak in." Those man-eating vines have a keen sense, and they will come out at the slightest movement. Besides, as far as I know, Mr. Racios's rays are only twenty meters away at most, right?"
"How do you know?" Racios' eyes widened.
The gnome's petrified rays are triggered by a gemstone called the Eye of Medusa, and the biggest problem with the energy of this gem is that it can't go far. Twenty meters is already the maximum distance. Beyond this range, the effect of the rays is greatly attenuated.
If not, the dwarf will be able to go all over the world with this trick. Just meet someone from afar and give him a while.
Not many people know about this defect of petrified rays. Even within the gnomes, they will not know until they are promoted to a mid-level warlock.
Krasios didn't expect that this kid would actually break it in one bite.
And the question of Lacios also confirmed Roy's correctness from the side. For a moment, everyone looked at Roy's gaze, full of surprise.
If this was said from the mouth of an erudite and experienced mercenary, no one would be surprised. It can be said from the mouth of this rookie, and it has to be surprising.
Not to mention where he knew about such secrecy, the mere fact that he was able to point out the flaws in Franco's plan shows that he has thought carefully about how to deal with the unicorn python.
Maybe......
"What help do you want, who do you want to go with you?"
"No, I'll do it alone. Soon, you wait. Roy shook his head. I don't want to explain anything more. A little under his feet, the figure shot out like an arrow.
"Wait......" Rondelo's cry came abruptly.
I saw Roy's figure flickering, and in the blink of an eye, he had disappeared into the dense forest.
What a speed!
Everyone looked at each other in horror and chased after each other.
Unicorn pythons are yin-loving by nature, and their nests are located in the hollows behind a small hill.
Chased Roy up the hill. Everyone stopped and looked down.
I saw that under the hillside, Roy had reached the edge of the unicorn python's lair. In front of him, there were dense poisonous thorns, and in the cave dozens of meters away, a one-horned python with a length of ten meters could be faintly seen, lying there motionlessly, and I don't know if it was asleep.
"You say," Racios asked. "How will he get there?"
Everyone shook their heads.
There were many ways in the past, but no one could think of a way not to alarm the unicorn python.
In his sight, Roy did not enter the range of the thorns, but carefully walked around an arc to an ordinary-looking tree at the edge of the thorns, and then, he drew a dagger and touched the trunk. The location was determined, and a knife was stabbed into it.
When he drew his dagger. From the wound of the tree, a pale blue sap flowed.
Roy filled a small bottle with the juice, then took out a few herbs from the spatial ring, crumpled them and squeezed them into juice, and put them in the vial to mix well.
Immediately, Roy took the juice. smeared on his body, and walked towards the thorns.
Everyone held their breath nervously - what is this kid doing? Is he going crazy to go into the poisonous thorns so straight?
What is surprising is that when Roy stepped into the thorn bush, the dense thorns with teeth and claws seemed to be drunk. Automatically separate to both sides. Where Roy walked, the thorns fell in a patch.
And at this moment, everyone saw that the hideous man-eating vines in the thorn bushes came out of the ground and pounced on Roy. But just when everyone's exclamations had reached their throats, they found that those man-eating vines with ugly and terrifying mouths instead of attacking Roy, they were obediently rubbing Roy's body. That intoxicated appearance is like a puppy tickled by its owner.
The crowd was stunned, and their jaws fell to the ground.
They just stared blankly as Roy made his way through the thorn bushes to the unicorn python.
Just as Roy approached the unicorn python's lair, the motionless unicorn python finally felt something, and his eyes opened and shone brightly. The long letter spat out, and its thick body rolled up violently, and its upper body stood tall like a huge pillar.
This is the standard move before the unicorn python attacks. In an instant, it spews venom that covers the entire area in front of it, and as its opponent struggles in a torrential rain of venom, its body, covered in scales stronger than steel, slams down like a large stick.
And the single horn on its head is also a deadly weapon, strong and sharp, which can easily pierce through the armor of knights.
However, the unicorn python moves fast, and Roy moves faster.
At the moment when the unicorn python stood up, a longbow suddenly appeared in Roy's hand, the string was like a thunderbolt, swishing, and three feathered arrows swept through the void like lightning.
The first two arrows went straight to the unicorn python's eyes.
Feeling the extreme danger, the unicorn python almost subconsciously closed its eyes and tilted its head back. At this moment, the last arrow, as if the unicorn python's reaction had already been calculated, happened to sink through a white spot on its jaw and passed directly through the back of the head.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment.
The unicorn python's body shook in the air, like a tree that had been cut down, and fell to the ground with a bang, smashing into the dirt everywhere.
And with the death of the unicorn python, a large area of poisonous thorns also withered and turned into flying ashes. The man-eating vines twisted and struggled, and a black flame erupted from their bodies, which were finally burned into sinuous black marks on the ground. A moment later, the area that had been full of danger was leveled.
The whole process only takes two or three minutes.
"Is it that simple?" said Racios, grimacing.
He tilted his head, looked left and right.
From the faces of his companions, who were twice as tall as himself, he could see the same shock and sluggishness as himself.
"Is this guy a killer of unicorn pythons?" muttered Lake.
"What did he wipe on his body, how could he walk in like he was going back to his own home?" Afu turned her head to look at Tu Su in surprise, her big eyes full of disbelief.
Tu Su shook his head.
Although among the many races, the barbarians are one of the most adept at dealing with demonic beasts. However, even Tu Su had never seen this method of hunting a unicorn python.
And before everyone had time to come to their senses, Roy below had already begun to dissect the unicorn python.
He first dug out the unicorn python's horn and fangs, and then skillfully took out the inner tank and magic crystal, collected the venom, and by the time the team walked down the hill, he had already peeled off a complete python skin.
"It's a good thing to make leather armor. Roy said with a smile.
Looking at this thin young man, and then looking at the bloody seventh-order demonic beast skin in his hand, the expressions on everyone's faces were wonderful.
A few minutes ago, their perception of the new companion was still stuck in a burden that dragged its feet, a rookie who had no self-knowledge and was sticking his face to try to make some money.
Unexpectedly, the problems that were difficult for these fifth- and sixth-level senior mercenaries to solve were easily solved by a mere third-level mercenary.
This makes everyone a little embarrassed when they look at each other.
"Let's go. We need to hurry. Rondello gave Roy a deep look and said to everyone. As he spoke, he led the way towards the entrance of the abyss.
With Rondelo's order, the squad moved. As they passed Roy's side, although the muscles on his face were a little stiff due to embarrassment, everyone tried to squeeze out a smile, and Lake also patted Roy on the shoulder and complimented him with a "good job".
Soon, the team approached the entrance to the abyss.
As Londello expected, because of the black gas churning at the entrance of the abyss, no one wanted to stay here. Moreover, the entire entrance is three kilometers wide, and it is almost a small basin between the mountains. Under the thick fog, seven or eight people walked in and couldn't attract attention at all.
Roy followed Roundelo, carefully stowage through a pile of rubble and into the entrance to the abyss.
It's okay to look at it from a distance. Walking inside, Roy found that the layer of black gas that shrouded the entrance of the abyss was as thick as ink. The closer you get, the more pungent and nauseous you feel. And in the black qi, it is like imprisoning countless ghosts or unjust souls.
They rolled and tore in the black air, and they took on strange shapes. Let out a heart-wrenching howl.
"Leave it alone, follow along. Rondello reminded everyone.
When he entered the black qi, he took out a torch made of thunder striking wooden zuò, and after lighting it, the black qi that had originally permeated his side and could not see his five fingers separated a little, forming an open space with a diameter of five meters.
Eight people formed a circular defensive formation and slowly walked forward. After walking a hundred meters, everyone only felt that their eyes were bright, and they had already penetrated the black fog and entered the abyss.
It's a world of black and red.
There are still skies, earths, forests, and rivers in the abyss. However, there was no sun in the sky, only red stars like eyes, looming in the mist that flowed like rivers, and looked very eerie.
And the earth is black and vast. From the sky, the forest looks like a demon with fangs and claws, and the river is as red as blood. The ground was full of bottomless fissures with red magma. There were black rocks everywhere, and there was no grass in many places.
This is the abyss, the world of demons
