Chapter Forty-Eight: The Monster of Low Intelligence
In the midst of the verdant, clammy woods, five teenagers dressed as adventurers were leading three languid earth dragons out of the woods.
"Let's hurry up and walk through this woods, and we'll see the crack in the howling wind!"
Maggie shouted as she looked at the map.
"The map says that this forest can have a toxic fog, and we try not to linger too long."
"It's not going to be fast, the Earth Dragons are in a bad state, we can only move forward at this speed."
An Ling yawned and said.
"Damn it!"
The red-haired girl scolded angrily and kicked the earth dragon beside her in hatred.
"What did these beasts eat yesterday? Why do you pull so hard in the morning? ”
"Is there a problem with the feed for the earth dragon?"
This morning, the Iris Adventure Party, which had just set off, encountered a very embarrassing incident. The three earth dragons that were originally used for leg power suddenly became scarce. After pulling, he is so weak that he can't talk about doing foot strength, even if he walks slowly, he looks aggrieved.
Amy raised her hand and said:
"It's the feed I bought, but I don't think it's because of the feed problem, the feed Dilong has been eating for several days, and there is no reason why something happened now."
"Maybe it's for some other reason."
"It's annoying!"
Talia scratched at her hair with some irritation.
The air in this cold and wet forest was not fresh, and there was such an indescribable stench that she smelled so disgusting that she didn't want to stay in the woods at all.
Hina looked around, took out a kettle from her space prop, and handed it to An Ling.
"An Ling, drink some water, you seem to be a little unenergetic."
"Oh, no, I'm fine."
An Ling softly rejected Sheena's kindness.
Sheena hesitated and put away the kettle.
looked at the listless good-looking boy in front of him, and couldn't bear to care:
"Are you really okay, Anling? Do you want me to help you with magic? ”
"No, Sheena, not really."
An Ling barely pulled a smile on his face.
"Sheena, I kept vigil last night, and I will definitely be a little unenergetic today, it's not a big deal, you don't have to think too much."
The vast majority of An Ling's soul is now dealing with and digesting the soul of the despicable king that he sucked last night, so he looks a little sluggish, which is helpless.
Originally, they were all demon beings in the abyss, even if they were demon kings, if they devoured each other, they would devour each other, and there would be no problem with instantaneous absorption.
But An Ling's situation is a bit special, his soul is no longer a pure demon soul, so the soul of the Despicable King needs to be carefully digested little by little, and he can't let the chaos and filth in the soul of the Despicable King pollute his precious human nature.
In addition, he was still thinking about the last message that the Despicable King spat out, the Demon God Batorya's soul split into eight immortal monsters.
Hina glanced at An Ling worriedly, and then admonished:
"An Ling, if you have any problems, you must tell me, don't hold on."
"Okay, okay."
An Ling said casually.
At this moment, there was a sudden scream from the front of the team.
"Ah!!!h
An Ling looked forward and saw that Maggie seemed to have stepped on some trap, and the whole person was hung upside down by a rope, looking very funny and embarrassed.
"Maggie, calm down! I shoot the rope! Talia, you go catch her! ”
Amy shouted, raising the rifle in her hand to aim at the rope that bound Maggie.
Talia trotted under Maggie and spread her hands.
"Here, Maggie, don't be afraid, I will definitely be able to pick you up."
Bang!
Amy fired, and Maggie fell straight inside, where she was caught by Talia.
"Why are there traps in this forest? Or is it this kind of non-lethal trap? ”
Maggie rolled over and stood up, looking embarrassed and confused.
As a magician with many years of adventure experience, she was carelessly caught by a small trap! Who would have thought that in this deserted wilderness forest, there is still a trap buried?
It would be nice if there was a more ferocious trap, so that the magic items on her body would be triggered directly, and she wouldn't be so embarrassed at all.
Amy's eyes froze, and she said, holding her rifle:
"Maggie, there seems to be only one explanation for this situation."
Hearing this, Taria's eyes lit up and she said:
"There's only one possibility, right?"
"What are you talking about?"
An Ling blinked, puzzled by their riddle.
However, although most of his energy at the moment was digesting the soul of the Despicable King, he could clearly feel that there was a large group of extremely weak and inferior beings approaching.
It seems to be a group of things similar to the Abyssal Devils, but their souls are much weaker than the Devils.
Maggie coughed, and an ornate staff appeared in her hand.
"Everyone, pay attention, get ready for battle."
"There may be a community of low-intelligence monsters in this forest, and now we may have been targeted."
Hina looked around a little panicked, and asked:
"Mentally unintelligent monsters? Is that the ogre goblin minotaur stuff? ”
Maggie nodded and replied:
"Yes, but the only ones who can do forest traps are goblins, the least intelligent monsters with the lowest combat power but also the most difficult, they tend to be numerous, and they know how to use their brains to some extent. Don't take it lightly. ”
"Haha!"
Talia drew the long sword at her waist and said excitedly:
"Don't be afraid! Sheena, it's the most fun to kill the green-skinned imps, they're stupid and weak, I can do a whole bunch of them casually, you can rest assured. ”
An Ling raised his eyelids and asked Taria:
"Why are you so happy?"
"Because it's fun to kill!"
Talia danced a sword flower, revealing her glittering little tiger fangs.
"They are numerous and weak, and they are a great tool for cultivating killing skills with swordsmen, and every time I kill in the goblins, it feels so good!"
"An Ling, you won't ask knowingly, don't you, don't you have a similar experience? Haven't killed a goblin? ”
An Ling squinted and smiled, scratched his head and said:
"Haha~ I've rarely encountered goblins before."
The desire to kill in Talia made him a little surprised, even a little envious. An Ling used to have such a pure desire to kill, but he didn't know when he became a picky eater.
A life that is too weak, whose soul is too worthless, and whose soul is almost intellectual, is difficult to arouse An Ling's interest, let alone arouse his desire to kill.
For An Ling, there are only two existences that can make him feel the joy of killing now, one is the intelligent life that will be afraid, will despair, will be afraid, painful, and sad. The richer and more complex those life emotions are, the more they can make An Ling feel happy.
The second type is a life that is strong enough and has a fat and delicious soul. Because this kind of life can arouse An Ling's hunger and satisfy An Ling's desire to eat.
But Talia's desire to kill now is pure, she's only excited about the imminent killing, no matter what kind of boring life the object is.
In this regard, An Ling was really envious.
