Chapter 60: Mutant Tar Beast
Unaware that Grand Duke Elana Salam had been to the Freeport of Bangala, he was now observing the cliff in front of him, which was halfway up in the geological subsidence, and was surrounded by mud, like islands rising from the sludge, but the black sludge was not bubbling with steam, and it seemed that the mud was shallow.
At the bottom of the cliff are scattered a number of cylindrical metal vaults, rusted breaches everywhere, some of which have simply rusted into a few pieces of iron slag half-buried in the sludge.
There are a number of openings around the vault that lead to the interior of the cliff.
"This is it, human, we don't want to go there. The Sludge Patriarch said with some fear, and as soon as he finished speaking, a long beast howl came from the top of the cliff, and this howl caused the sludge giants to take a step back
A sturdy canine-like creature emerged from the top of the cliff, Heras's quantum brain immediately locked onto the figure through the mist, it was about four meters long, several times larger than the average tar beast, its mottled fur had lost most of it like a dead rat scalded in boiling water, and the bare skin was like a rough nodule like a slag pile, covered with necrotic scabs, and a sharp canine tooth was broken.
Heras vigilantly analyzed the beast's physical stats according to its appearance, and the muscles of the creature in his limbs and back twitched at a fairly high frequency, full of a sense of strength.
"****Preliminary judgment is roughly the strength and speed of a seventh-level knight, but there is no bloodline ability, the vitality is unknown, and the comprehensive combat power is about the most powerful of the sixth-level creatures. Heras quickly came to the conclusion that this kind of radiation-mutated creature was really a bit of a problem, and if each of them had this kind of combat power, he would have to think about it, after all, the special demonized gold warhead could only be loaded with six at a time, and with his current ability, he couldn't make a space magazine.
"I know this guy was the last time we surrounded it, and its teeth were broken by me," the Sludge Patriarch waved his hand, motioning for the people to slowly step back.
"Patriarch, how many of these creatures there are, have you counted them?" Herras didn't move, and as the sludge giants kept retreating, he soon became standing alone in front of him.
"In addition to their leaders! there are at least four of these adult beasts! and that's not counting the minors," said the Sludge Patriarch in a low voice, "I warn you, humans, you can't imagine their claws and teeth before they go! Even if they are underage, their speed and strength are terrifying!"
But Heras took a step forward, and he wanted to test it first, if it didn't work, it was still time to escape.
As he took a step forward, two more howls came from under the cliff, and then two similar mutated tar beasts crawled out of the hole around the vault, their heads were about the same size as the one at the top of the cliff, and there were many beasts between the warehouses, and I don't know how many underage mutant beasts lurked among them.
But they only let out a low roar full of threat, and scraped the sludge in front of them, but they didn't pounce. This made the Sludge Patriarch quite puzzling, and bluffing was not what these beasts were doing. Heras also felt a little strange, the tar beast did not have the surname Xi that threatened the enemy, could it be that the surname of the creature also changed after the mutation?
"Perhaps?" Heras had just come to his mind, and a howl of pain came through the mist, more terrible than all the howls before, and the loud whine with a trilling sound made the sludge ripple slightly. "That mutated Tar Beastmaster should be in labor, there must be a male beast guarding it. ”
"Is their leader male or female?" Heras asked solemnly, his last expression.
"Mother, these things were born to it. The Sludge Patriarch replied uneasily, the loud howl of pain that frightened him, and he continued to step back for a while before he continued, "It is the most violent when it gives birth, and if you think you can take advantage of it, you are wrong, human, not only will it not be weak after childbirth, but it will also be extremely manic."
Hearing this, Heras stopped talking, he clutched his staff tightly, and walked forward again, and the mutated tar beasts roared wildly, one beast after another, causing the sludge giants behind them to run.
"Crazy, this human must be crazy. He thought he was a high-level?" The Sludge Clan Leader was the fastest, originally he thought that human must have some special way to destroy these terrifying beasts, it turned out that he was just going to go over and die like this!?
Of course, Heras is not sent to death, if these mutant tar beasts swarm up, he will definitely run faster than those sludge giants, but since their leader is in labor, he will definitely not appear at the first time, he is ready to fight for this time difference to load the warhead and in order to prevent accidents, he did not use flying skills, first of all, there is no place in the air to borrow strength, if he only relies on the air flow to dodge, the flexible surname is definitely not as good as the ground, and he does not want to put the wind elemental faction into a buffer at this critical moment.
Seeing that the invaders not only did not retreat, but instead walked faster and faster towards their territory, those mutant tar beasts finally couldn't help but burst out of the beast's instinct, and the adult mutant tar beast on the top of the cliff suddenly jumped up first, and pounced on Heras from afar!
The speed of this kind of pounce is already comparable to Algernon's short flight spurt relying on the power of the bloodline!Even though these adult mutant beasts can't fly, the height of their upward attack is already beyond the normal attack range of a sixth-level mage, and it is not safe for a mage to attack them while flying.
As the first adult mutant tarmon leaped high, the other two adult mutant tarmons also lunged at Heras, and the underage mutants followed closely and ran towards him.
Heras's quantum brain instantly calculated the landing point of these three adult beasts, and this jumping ability made him a little frightened, just by jumping! They could cross a long distance in the air and land directly in front of him!
Now that it was too late to run, Heras no longer hesitated, relying on the calculation of the quantum brain to lock on to the three adult mutant beasts that had turned into afterimages, raised his hand and pointed the tip of the staff to the nearest and highest jumper, and immediately used his spiritual power to get involved in the magic circle engraved on the magic gold material of the staff.
The electric light of the staff flashed twice, and the mist was instantly discharged, and the tip of the staff pulled out two straight lines like a vacuum at an unimaginable high speed, and the high-speed rotating special demonized gold warhead stirred all the fog in the path into a tornado of mist rotating around the central axis of the straight ballistic path, and at this time, two almost overlapping sharp whistling sounds echoed through the heavy mist in the twilight oil swamp!
The sludge patriarch was so startled by the roar that he subconsciously glanced back, and immediately stared at him in horror, and his legs running in the sludge couldn't help but stagger, and he almost fell into the mire.
He didn't see exactly what was happening, only two long, straight tornadoes of mist, and the terrifying creature that jumped up from the cliff had been hit through its head and heart by something, and thick black blood splattered from one eye socket and under the heart!
With a 'poof', the horrible beast fell into the mire and never moved again.
"What is this?" Before the Sludge Patriarch could shake off his shock, the blonde-haired, white-robed human leaped onto the terrifying beast's unmoving body, and then he pointed his staff at the back of the beast's body, and the lightning flashed four times, followed by four sharp whistling sounds.
The reason why Heras needs two to deal with an adult mutant beast is because the quantum brain can judge the agility and strength of the target through the appearance of muscle twitching, but it cannot directly judge the vitality of the target, many powerful beasts can still rely on instinct to fight for a short period of time after their brains are destroyed or their hearts burst, and many professionals die in this situation because of negligence.
To be on the safe side, he had to destroy both the heart and the brain at the same time.
Two more 'poofs' were heard, accompanied by the clatter of oil sludge rolling, and the other two adult mutant tar beasts were also declared dead.
The sludge giants all stared blankly at the scene in front of them, and the huge mace in the patriarch's hand slowly slipped into the mire, and the splashed oil sludge made him suddenly wake up What kind of magic is this?! That human mental fluctuation did not form a rank suppression for them, which proved that he definitely did not reach the high level! And killing three powerful sixth-level creatures was as easy as a leisurely stroll?
"Humans are really the most terrifying creatures," Ulukan muttered to himself, whether it was the two humans some time ago or the one in front of him, they left an indelible terrifying impression on him
But Heras did not let his guard down, he knew that the most dangerous time had come!
A loud sonic boom broke through the sound barrier from a cavern behind the vault, and came through the cliff through the land, but there was no roar of a beast, because the creature that had leaped out had surpassed the speed of sound!
"The speed of the ninth-level bloodline knight, the strength and vitality of the eighth-level bloodline knight are unknown, there is no bloodline ability, and the comprehensive combat power is roughly equivalent to those that are very powerful among the seventh-level creatures!" Heras's quantum brain made an accurate judgment in an instant, and his quantum brain even noticed that some flesh and blood were spewed out from the back of the creature that jumped out, it seemed that this mutant tar beastmaster had not finished the process of childbirth, so he jumped out in a rage, and the powerful muscle contraction force squeezed its unborn cub into meat scraps
