Chapter 492: Black Forest (41)
PS: Thank you for the monthly pass!
Sapa withdrew his spear and said, "It's a bit slow, it's much better if there's a blunt object." ”
The barbarian's words reminded Leon that most of the creatures with their large size and super protective power like the giant scorpion would have a strong resistance to slashing, slashing, piercing, and other types of damage from sharp weapons. However, large blunt weapons such as clubs, hammer weapons, axes, and chain flails are not only quite heavy in themselves, but also have more power bonuses, and even if a blow does not break the shell of this creature, it will cause damage to the parts inside.
Especially young people are known for their strength, and if they had a large war hammer in their hands, it is estimated that the battle would not be the situation in front of them. However, if you want to get a large blunt object as a backup, it will have to be a matter of later, and the most important thing now is to deal with the giant scorpion in front of you first.
This creature is quite difficult, not only is it a weapon, but it is also inherently extremely protected, but fortunately, the five pairs of appendages except for the scorpion claw are not very developed, otherwise it would be even more troublesome to move faster.
Leon said, "Sapa and in a moment it will come from behind the tree, and you will take advantage of the scorpion claw on its left, and I will take care of the right, and then we will pull it to the sides and expose its head!"
The barbarian's eyes lit up and he applauded.
The giant scorpion's hard shell can resist damage from the outside world, but its one pair of middle eyes and three pairs of side eyes cannot be covered by the hard shell, so whenever a dangerous attack comes, it will first block these eight vulnerable eyes.
Although most of the scorpion's perception actually depends on the tentacles on its abdomen, it can also be severely damaged if its eyes are damaged.
And if they can control the giant scorpion's double claws. Then it is equivalent to restraining the opponent's most powerful weapon, as for the stinging needle behind the tail...... Leon figured how he and Sapa could support the stabbing attack for a while, enough for the Ranger's attack to pierce the eight eyes.
By this time, the giant scorpion had already turned its body. Wielding a huge scorpion claw, it rushed towards them, and the sound of wood chips flying along the way was incessant.
Sapa rushed over immediately, first using the shock wave to attract the attention of the huge creature, and then when the other party used the scorpion to protect his eyes again, he immediately rushed up from one side.
With both hands, he grabbed the junction between the end of the giant scorpion claw and the arthropod, and pulled it outwards with all his might. The strength was so great that even the body of this huge creature shook visibly. At the same time, Leon also launched a charge to the side, with the efforts of the two of them. The two scorpion claws were parted little by little, revealing the head of the giant scorpion, as well as the two eyes in the middle.
Leon clutched the arthropod underneath the scorpion's claw, although there was a fine layer of burrs on it. But for him, it was only a slight tingling. He immediately shouted, "Dan!
The giant scorpion obviously didn't expect them to make such a move, as its head was exposed in front of humans, its consciousness was alarmed, and the two scorpion claws immediately swung vigorously to get rid of the restraints, and the tail was also raised high, and the next moment it would attack.
There was a powerful force from the knuckles in Leon's hands, and his body shook a little, but the strength of the giant scorpion's resistance was limited to that. It was not enough to resist the great strength of the young man, and he was still slowly pulling outward. Even the intersecting parts of the limbs made a subtle "click" and friction sound.
Although the barbarian's strength is not as strong as Leon's, it is not a big problem to deal with a giant scorpion, but the speed will be slower.
The two elven rangers vaguely guessed their intentions after seeing Leon and Sapa's actions, so they had already taken their bows and arrows in their hands, and Leon had just said half of his order when they began to attack at the same time.
In fact, the eight eyes of this creature protruding slightly were not without any protection, but each was covered by a transparent soft shell, and the elven rangers had long noticed this, and they launched all their combat skills, and twenty long arrows came out of the string in a very short time, focusing on the middle pair of eyes on the top of the giant scorpion's head.
Sure enough, the long arrow that hit the transparent soft shell first was bounced out, but the elven rangers were the best at long-range attackers after all, although they could not do anything against the hard shell of the giant scorpion, but the transparent soft shell that protected the eyes gradually dented under the attack of one long arrow after another, and produced obvious cracks.
At this time, the tail spur that the giant scorpion had already stabbed at Li Ang suddenly stopped, and then gave up the attack, and quickly stretched out to the head, protecting the head, and blocking the follow-up dozen long arrows.
The Elven Ranger opened his bow again and prepared to launch a second wave of attacks, only to see the giant scorpion's tail cocked and aimed its tail thorn in their direction.
Caterina appeared at the front of the team for the first time, holding a brand new shield to protect her companions behind her, judging by her agile movements, the poison on the giant scorpion stinger should be fine.
Come to think of it, the strength of this behemoth is already quite amazing, and it would be a bit too terrifying if the stinging needle it shot also carried a toxin that could be deadly.
Leon looked up at the round shield in the girl's hand, and immediately said to Sapa, "Let's turn its head to the other side!"
It's not that he doesn't believe in Caterina's strength, but from the giant scorpion's continuous "shots" just now, he can see that its tail is quite flexible, and the speed of fire of the stinger is very fast, if one of them misses and shoots other companions, their protection is not comparable to Leon or Caterina.
The young man's original purpose was to test the strength of the giant scorpion, so he had always had reservations, but now he had a preliminary judgment that he could not cause damage to the team, so he had already wanted to find an opportunity to launch a roar of awe. Sonic attacks are not the same as elemental attacks, and even if its hard shell can withstand fire and cold, the pervasive sound waves will pass through the small gaps in the thick skin.
If even the Roar of Awe doesn't work, he'll get everyone out of the way, and then join Sapa with his strong physique to attack them with all his might.
Then Leon and Sapa worked together, and just as they were about to try to pull the giant scorpion's body to turn around, a tall figure suddenly appeared from the canopy above their heads, and then jumped down.
Leon knew it was an ape, and knew that it had climbed to the top of the tree, moving back and forth in the nearby canopy, but he didn't expect it to jump off at this time.
The ape's heavy body fell to the ground, causing a shock that almost made Leon unsteady on his feet, and before the young man could speak, Lulu hugged the tail of the giant scorpion.
"Huh?"
There were several emotions in Leon's voice, he hadn't thought of this method, but unfortunately only Sapa and himself were the ones who had the ability to do this now, although Boris could barely count one, but the relatively weak defense made the young man a little worried, Fiona of course could, but if she was allowed to make a move, it would lose the meaning of testing the strength of the giant scorpion.
As for Lulu...... Its strength and protection are actually second only to Leon and Fiona, but unfortunately language can't communicate, and time can't allow gestures to explain it in detail, so it's not in the consideration of young people at all.
Unexpectedly, after seeing Leon and Sapa's actions, Lulu actually jumped down by himself and restrained the giant scorpion's high-cocked tail in one fell swoop. (To be continued......)
