Chapter 56: The Manic Serpent

"Snake!"

"Black snake!"

The sound of scales rubbing against leaves can be heard in the forest.

Even though the Awakened spotted the enemy, they began to loudly alert their companions.

Those who can fight stepped forward one after another, fan-shaped, protecting those who are powerless to fight behind them.

Only a few seconds passed.

The shadows of the forest twitched, and the snakes approached from them.

But the darkness of the night makes it difficult to tell their status.

It seems to be a few dozen, but when you look at the dark trees, you think that number may be too small.

The only thing people can be sure of.

It's just slender figures swimming around, they surround the camp, and they could attack at any moment!

"Attention everyone!"

"Stay within range of the campfire, don't go out to fight!"

Razor the Explorer shouted, knowing the dangers of the darkness, so he first determined that the strategy of this battle was mainly defensive.

Splatter!

Razor's shout seemed to anger the demonic beasts in the forest.

The speed of the snakes suddenly increased, and the dangerous air sank between the campfire and the light and shadow of the forest.

"Hiss-"

Several slender black shadows suddenly moved forward.

Generally speaking.

Pythons are accustomed to suffocating their prey by winding and squeezing, and do not rely on venom to paralyze and kill their prey.

But Warcraft can't be explained by this common sense.

In addition to the stout pythons with extremely strong flesh, those smaller individuals also have the ability to carry poison!

They have black scales with silver rings.

When the snake's head was raised, it opened its mouth and spewed venom forward, a yellow-green liquid that rapidly expanded as soon as it touched the air, then turned into a cloud of green mist that almost enveloped the entire camp in its course.

"It's ...... Toxic mist? ”

Lindsay immediately glanced behind her.

In addition to toxins, this green mist obviously also contains essentia, which belongs to the innate skills of Warcraft.

The only good news is that the speed of this fog is not fast, and the awakened can cope with it by relying on their physique.

But the ordinary people behind ......

Lindsay's brows furrowed, and her mind quickly thought about how to protect the ordinary people behind her.

But not waiting for him to act.

Someone in the expedition had already stepped forward.

A man in a cloak came to the front, he didn't make too drastic movements, he just opened his hands, and the fluctuations of essentia spread outward, covering the poisonous mist that ushered in.

Brush –

There was no wind, no rain, and no gravity anomalies around the camp.

But the poisonous mist that was still attacking the camp a second ago immediately reversed the direction of its fluttering, and it actually surged towards those poisonous snakes!

“……”

"Don't worry, this poisonous fog will never pass!"

The man manipulating the poisonous fog shouted.

Lindsay looked at each other.

He had known this man yesterday.

The other party's name is Shi Ke, and he is a branch master.

The Awakened of this class is very unique, and after progressing, it can have an impact on everything in the world. Compared to the Elemental School, which simply controls the elements, the ability is more comprehensive and powerful!

Attacked in turn by a poisonous mist.

The snakes in the gloomy forest also began to panic and even retreat.

This poisonous mist itself is corrosive, and even demonic beasts are reluctant to touch it with their bodies.

Under the commotion, it even showed a feeling of wanting to retreat!

"Get out of the way!"

At this moment, Lindsay suddenly moved.

He took a step forward with his left foot, and the whole person was volleyed into the air.

The force made him move as fast as lightning, and in the next second, he was on the verge of a campfire.

Right next to an Awoken.

The dagger in Lindsay's hand went vertically downward, and the whole person stabbed to the ground like a flutter!

"Mr. Drake?"

Click!

The others didn't have time to be surprised or confused.

Because in the next second, Lindsay's dagger slashed to the ground.

The seemingly empty ground suddenly heard the sound of flesh and blood splitting!

"Hiss-"

At this time, an emerald green snake shadow appeared from the ground.

It had been completely hidden in the air, barely making a sound, as if a top assassin was preparing to act.

"Stealth?"

"These snakes are still invisible!"

The Awakened One, who had doubts on his face just now, now had only gratitude on his face.

If it weren't for Lindsay, he wouldn't have noticed the demonic beasts crawling on the ground, and he would inevitably get into trouble if he was not careful.

Lindsay, on the other hand, remained calm, only shook her head faintly.

He continued to reconnoiter the map to confirm the movements of other monsters.

The others saw this thrilling scene in their eyes, and they were not without reaction, and the team leader Razor immediately spoke:

"The people in the back, bring the fire extinguishing powder, be careful of their stealth!"

The explorer calls the shots.

The ordinary people who had organic spirits in the back dragged two sacks up.

They poked the bag open and swung it forward, sprinkling a layer of white powder around the camp.

Several stealth vipers that had just poked out of the forest also showed traces.

Whoosh –

The arrows flew out, and sure enough, they nailed two poisonous snakes to the ground.

"Be careful!"

"They're coming!"

It was as if a silent charge horn sounded.

Snakes began to emerge and launch a general assault on the human camp.

But the strongest of them were only third- and fourth-order demonic beasts.

Although there are a large number of monsters, the traces can be discovered by Lindsay in advance, and they lose the advantage of sneak attack. In addition, the Awakened cooperate with each other and rely on the defensive advantages of the camp to hold on, and the battle process is thrilling.

The whole battle came and went as fast as it came.

Less than half an hour later, there were no more poisonous snakes in the field of vision that dared to attack humans, and the trajectory of the extinguishing powder on the ground was chaotic.

"Whew-"

In the crowd, Razor, as the leader, breathed a sigh of relief.

He narrowed his eyes and used his skills to make sure, and then turned to look at Lindsay:

"Mr. Drake, are there any enemies around?"

Lindsay looked at the map before answering:

"In my scouting range, at least not anymore."

Razor then looked at the other companions:

"Everyone's worked hard."

"It's not early, let's rest first, and I'll arrange for tonight's night watch!"

“……”

After being attacked by a monster, people naturally did not have the intention of continuing the bonfire party.

When Razor arranged for everyone to rest, Lindsay also looked for him:

"Razor, let me dispose of these corpses, there is something still valuable on them."

Razor, of course, will not refuse:

"Then I'm bothering you."

"After packing up, Drake you can go and rest immediately, I don't think there will be a second wave of attacks anytime soon. But it may not be safe in the second half of the night, and I hope you will join the vigil then. ”

"Absolutely." Lindsey nodded.

He activated his material gathering skills and crossed the campfire to collect the harvest of tonight's encounter.

[Material: snake gall bladder]

Three materials.

While collecting materials, Lindsay also identified the snake's carcass.

On the introduction of the corpses of these snake monsters, there is a message that appears frequently.

- [The wrath of the forest is affecting its people, and life is becoming frenzied.] 】
