Chapter 6: Obtaining the Beast Core

The Walking Corpse and the Licker are not the opponents of the Eater at all, but this can't be blamed on them, after all, they are only the lowest level of the virus ecology, and as for the stronger tyrant, with Roman's current strength, he can't control it at all.

Despite this, the Walking Corpse and the Lickers still inflict damage on the Eater, desperately biting off pieces of meat from the Eater and chewing greedily as if they had encountered a supreme delicacy that could only be eaten once in years.

They succeeded in trapping the Pole Eater in the pit, and the life essence flowing from the Mana Flower continued to evaporate, and the Pole Eater was eager to absorb it, but the walking corpses and lickers continued to harass and attack.

As a result, the unintelligent head of the Polar Eater went berserk, frantically tearing at the walking corpses and lickers on its body, hoping to defeat them as soon as possible so that it could absorb the life essence of the Mana Flower with peace of mind.

Seeing that the Extreme Devourer couldn't get out for a while, Roman had a successful smile on his face, and he climbed to a commanding height, tearing off the canvas, which was the Dragon Hunting Bed Crossbow.

The Dragon's Bed Crossbow has two firing modes, one is the Easy Mode, in which the Knight can be shoulder-fired, which is flexible and simple, but sacrifices power; The other is the thump mode, which requires you to set up a tripod on the ground and put on more bowstrings.

Easy mode cannot penetrate the thick skin of the Eater of Extremes, and must be used in Heavy Attack mode.

Roman stimulates the knight's power and laboriously turns the winch of the bed crossbow, and in order to achieve maximum penetration, Roman has more than a dozen crossbow strings, causing the force to be wound to increase exponentially, and even if the knight's power is stimulated, it needs to be combined with a force-saving pulley set.

A tedious winding of the arrows accumulated enough kinetic energy for the arm-thick steel crossbow, and the arrows rushed straight out, piercing the Eater of Poles in one fell swoop, and the other end of the arrow pierced deep into the ground.

But this still can't cause fatal damage to it, in fact, the Extreme Eater has no vital damage, no matter how many injuries it takes, it will be restored by the life essence stored in the beast core in its body.

Roman didn't expect to kill it like this, everything he did was to prepare for the final blow, and immediately after the first blow, he prepared the second crossbow arrow.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Polar Eater tried to escape, but the lickers and walking corpses swarmed up and dragged it down.

The dragon hunting crossbow fired three crossbow arrows in a row, nailing the Eater of Poles to death in the deep pit, unable to leave, and the walking corpse and licker chopped off large pieces, quickly tearing off several thick pieces of skin.

At this time, Roman moved, holding a long sword in his hand, his fighting spirit exploded, and he rushed to the deep pit with an arrow step, and with lightning speed, he "clicked" a few times and slashed at the licker who was eating happily.

After a fierce battle with the Eater Beast, the Licker was already at the end of the crossbow, and the Roman Knights exploded in battle, and immediately killed them on their backs, and then the corpse exorcism powder was scattered, and the walking corpses scattered in all directions.

When everything fell silent, only Roman and the Eater Beast nailed to the bottom of the pit were left on the scene, and one man and one beast looked at each other silently for a few seconds.

The next moment, both sides moved.

Roman pulled out his scalpel and leaped forward, riding on the back of the Eater of Poles, aiming at the wound torn open by the licker, stabbing it in, digging hard, aiming at the core.

Unable to show weakness, the Eater shook its body as best it could, throwing Roman off, but three spear-like arrows pinned it to the ground and unable to move, so he resorted to his killer weapon against humans - "essentia absorption".

Bursts of blue mist sucked out of Roman and entered the body of the Extreme Eater, and Roman immediately felt a wave of weakness, and his hands and feet did not obey the call, as if they were filled with lead, and they were extremely heavy.

"Didi! Loss of vital essence, 1.9... 1.8… 1.7…”

The essence of life declined, Roman directly fell to the knight rank and retreated to mortals, and mortals simply could not leave the Manna Eco alive, from this moment on, he had no way out, if he could not be promoted to wizard, he would die here.

"Damn! Give me the beast core! I don't want to die here!! ”

The weakness made Roman feel sleepy, and he kept cheering himself up to keep his spirits up, and at the same time seized the time to swing his knife vigorously, digging out the beast core as much as possible before he passed out again. The Pole Eater also felt the danger of death, and sped up the rate at which it absorbed the essence of life.

In this way, a man and a beast began a race against death.

Thanks to the licker's attack, Roman avoided the thick skin, dug deep into the soft muscles, and reached out to pick it, easily removing the core.

The core of the beast is the size of a palm, and it is a round ball all over the pit, and the pit is shining with blue light, and you don't need to guess to know that it is wrapped in a rich life essence.

The Eater on the side lost its core and turned into grains of sand and went away with the wind, and Roman cleaned up a little and left the scene.

Although this is a battlefield site, there are not many Pole Eaters, but just a little bit of movement, it may attract other Pole Eaters, so Roman will accept it when he sees it, and he will slip away, preparing to find a place to hide and digest the beast core.

But at this moment, the chip came with another prompt: "Didi! Didi! Acoustic signals show that there is biological proximity, odor analysis... Mankind! ”

"Damn!" Roman remembered the explosion earlier and scolded: "It must be here to pick peaches!" ”

How could he do what the other party wanted, but now that most of his life essence has been lost and his strength has degenerated into a mortal, it is really not appropriate to have a conflict, so he immediately made a decision and chose a direction to escape.

Not long after Roman left, a figure "swished" to the place where the Eater of Poles had died, a slender young man with a gloomy face, his face was gloomy, looking at the corpse in the pit, his face was full of displeasure.

"Damn, someone has robbed me of my prey! You'd better not let me find it, or I'll have you torn you to pieces!" ”

The young man gritted his teeth and said, and then he noticed the dragon hunting crossbow arrows on the ground, as well as the crossbow machine in the distance, and quickly deduced Roman's approach, and couldn't help but be even more angry.

The young man also came to promote the wizard, and his approach was similar to Roman's, which was to set traps, lure devouring beasts, create favorable conditions, and kill them in one fell swoop.

The difference is that he is richer than Roman, and he doesn't need to make any walking corpse lickers and fight with crossbow arrows, but relies on rune stones.

This is a sorcerer's creation, which allows mortals to use witchcraft, but the price of mortal use is to fall into weakness for a long time, and that explosion is the result of the runestone.

When he lured the Eater into the trap and prepared to use the Rune Stone, the Eater suddenly turned around and ran in the direction of Roman when he fell into the Rim Kick at a distance, causing the power of the explosive rune to be greatly weakened.

The young man, on the other hand, was in a weakened state and could not pursue until Roman succeeded in killing the Eater of Extremes and taking out the beast core, and he was too late, at which point Roman had already slipped away.

Now, the young man decided to recoup this loss, he took out a palm-sized rune stone, and said in a cold voice: "Backtrack! ”

The magic circle on the magic stone was activated, and the image of a few minutes ago appeared in front of the young man's eyes, and after the playback, he gritted his teeth and said, "Hmph! The black-haired purple eyes are the scum of the Finks family! Even if you don't rob me of my prey, I'll kill you! ”

After that, he smiled coldly: "Looking at your body just now, your strength has dropped below the knight, and I just took advantage of your illness to kill you!" ”

After that, he chased straight in the direction of Roman's run.
