Chapter 172: Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas

The water vapor around her gradually became heavier, and Liu Ying felt that her Lian was a little wet, and it seemed that there was a water source around. Although it is only spring, the temperature brought by the double day at noon is also very considerable, because the presence of moisture makes everyone's body a little slippery and sticky.

From dawn to noon, there were five demonic attacks, and today's casualties are even more than yesterday's. However, the dead were ordinary people, and several magicians did not suffer any damage, but there was a lot of loss of magic power.

Graham wiped the drops of water on his face with the back of his hand, and according to experience, the small waterfall in front of him was the most likely place for Arkachon to see clear water cattle. It was just the hottest time of the day, when the Clearwater Cow would leave its hiding place and come to the waterfall to replenish its waters. As the captain of the large team of adventurers who have been in Hawking Town for the longest time, he is well aware of the periphery of Arkachon, and this place was undoubtedly discovered during a mission, but at that time he did not have the strength to fight against the Clearwater Cow.

Today is quite smooth, last night Gram was still worried about whether he could arrive on time, and he didn't encounter any hard ideas on the way, especially if he didn't meet a second-order demonic beast, with the strength of a gray wolf, it was not only time-consuming to fight against a second-order demonic beast, but also a huge loss to his own strength.

Gram commanded the team towards the Cascade of Memory, which was a source of confidence that Gram had the confidence to complete the commission before the other teams. The departure of the three magicians who happened before entering Arkachon to join the other teams had a big impact on him, the team was bigger, his heart was not as good as before, and he needed to clean up the gray wolf when he had time.

After walking for a while, Willow Shadow began to hear the faint sound of water in the distance, and it was in the forest, allowing Willow Shadow to tell that there was a waterfall in front of him, and he knew that the battle was about to begin.

After walking for a while, the sound of the water became louder, and many people heard the sound and knew that there was a waterfall in front of them. After approaching the waterfall for some distance, Gram raised a gesture, and the speed of the team slowed down instantly, and everyone was light and did not dare to cause too much noise. Gram led the Gray Wolves to a hidden corner where part of the waterfall below could be seen. Grim half-crouched to see how the cascade was doing.

There are a few first-order demonic beasts in the waterhole formed by the impact of the waterfall below, and Liu Ying also saw the sharp-haired pig that tasted good last night, but there are cow demonic beasts found, and it seems that the Qingshui cow has not yet appeared.

Seeing that the water cow had not yet come, Gram was not too anxious, but looked up at the top of his head, and looked at the sky through the gap in the leaves, the hottest time of the day has not yet arrived, and he still needs to wait.

"Moo~"

Gram didn't speak, and everyone just squatted still. It didn't take long for a long cry to sound in one direction of the falls. The first-order demonic beasts that were originally drinking and resting in the waterhole all stood up, and after a commotion, the demonic beasts next to the waterhole walked more than halfway, freeing up a wide area. A four-meter-long, three-meter-tall black-haired cow appeared by the waterhole. In the outskirts of Arkachon, it is considered a hegemon, and there is not a single monster that threatens it nearby.

Qing Shui Niu ignored the first-order demonic beasts that were still left in the other locations of the waterhole, and walked directly into the waterhole, it seemed that there was only that one position where it did not allow other creatures to stay. The hooves of the cow fell into the water with a muffled sound, and the water splashed in all directions, wetting the dry skin of the water cow that had not yet entered the water. Following the entry of the Qingshui cow, the crystal clear water of the pool at the beginning was immediately turbid, and it soon came to the place where the water hit to enjoy this rare cold bath.

Looking at the clear water cow in the pool below that made a few more chirps because of the comfort, Gram made another gesture, and the entire gray wolf members approached the pool softly. The vigilance of the Clearwater Cow, which enjoyed the coolness brought by the waterfall, was now at its lowest level, and it would not have occurred to it that someone had already hit it with an idea.

When the more than 20 people in the vanguard of the gray wolf were only about twenty meters away from the waterhole, Qing Shui Niu discovered these uninvited guests with bad intentions. Qing Shui Niu immediately pointed the bull's head at the group of people of the gray wolf, his eyes were slightly red, and he shook the water droplets on his body violently, staring at this group of people and roaring in a low voice.

Since it had been discovered by the Qingshui Cow, the gray wolf's people did not hide it, and immediately shot it with bows and arrows. The people who can come to Arkachon to make a living, and who can be chosen by Gram, are all strong, holding well-made hard bows, bows and arrows are all made of steel, and they are also coated with the saliva of scaly lizards, and their combat effectiveness is extraordinary, which is also Gram's capital, and it is the foundation for the gray wolf to break into a reputation outside Arkachon.

When he encountered waves of first-order demonic beasts attacking on the road, Graham was reluctant to use these big killing weapons. In Gramm's plan, even if he encounters a second-order demonic beast, as long as it is not a huge threat, it will not show up, and what is shot out in Gramm's heart is no longer a simple bow and arrow, but a shining gold coin.

Such a sharp arrow is nothing in front of Qing Shui Niu's tough skin, and Qing Shui Niu's defense cannot be broken through even by the attacks of some weak demonic beasts that have just become a third order. However, the Shimizu Cow is not without flaws, there are a large number of folds in the stone-like skin, and the sharp arrows shot at its skin will be bounced away leaving only a shallow white mark, but those sharp arrows shot in the folds are really piercing the skin, and only shaking can shake these arrows down.

Pain is always the most powerful means of provoking demonic beasts, and the bloodshot in Qing Shui Niu's eyes is much more, rushing towards these humans who provoke it. Several magicians, including Willow Shadow and Assa, did not join the battle below, but chanted magic on the spot, and the four-colored magic attack landed on the body of the Qingshui Cow on the way to run, and the magic was not tickling even if it was bombarded on the skin, and it was more painful than a sharp arrow piercing its skin. At this time, Shimizu Niu knew that there was a magician, and it hated magicians!

The Shimizu Cow can't control the magicians who have been chanting magic in the distance, and it wants to solve the ordinary people in front of it, and let these people know the fate of angering them through death.

The gray wolf members of the more than twenty people in the archers held wooden shields, giving the bows and arrows in the rear time to move and space to output. The speed of the Qing Shui Cow was very fast, and he immediately came to the body of the shield adventurer, the wooden shield coated with hard agent was quite hard, not weaker than the general iron shield's defense, and under the impact of the Qing Shui Niu, only a groove appeared, and it was not broken. However, the three adventurers who were hit by the Qingshui Niu were not comfortable, and they were knocked away with blood spurting from their mouths, and the unlucky man in the middle happened to fall under the hooves of the Qingshui Niu and was trampled on. If you don't need to look at it, you definitely won't survive.

Fortunately, Gramm's judgment and command were correct, and in the case of taking the lead, under the bombardment of hard bows and wooden shields and magic, Qing Shui Niu was still knocked down, and Grim immediately gave Qing Shui Niu the potion given by the client, which was enough for it to sleep for a few days. After Grim watched Qing Shui Niu's blood-red eyes close, the big stone hanging in his heart finally fell. The others cheered, and victory in battle was the best morale boost in the world.

"You two are very good, very good!"

Grim sat on the body of the Qing Shui Niu, and the fact that this battle could be completed so quickly and smoothly was inseparable from the strength of the two of them, and these two young magic apprentices alone could withstand the four magicians in the gray wolf. At this time, Gram still had some complaints about Liu Ying's failure to make a move at the beginning, and now he only admires Liu Ying. Liu Ying's attack can even catch up with herself, and she doesn't look like a magic apprentice at all.

This time, the battle that made Gram think that it was smooth also killed thirteen people, all of whom died under the collision and heavy hooves of the Qingshui Ox, and the hundred-man squad of the entire gray wolf at the beginning is now only more than seventy people left, and the cruelty of life is once again in front of the adventurer. For Gramm, as long as the magician is not compromised, it is not much loss. The lives of people in Arka Male are not worth much in the first place, let alone the lives of ordinary adventurers.

Although there were no casualties among the mages, each mage used all their magic powers, and they continued to attack tirelessly after ordinary adventurers used their lives to pull out space for them. There is no way, the defense of the Qingshui Ox is still too high, if it is not for Gram's full preparation, the cost will only be even greater! For example, after Asa confirmed that the Qingshui Ox had fallen, he immediately sat on the ground and lay down like a dead pig.

"Everyone pack up, there is too much movement here, it may attract other second-order demonic beasts, let's leave this place to rest. When you return to Hawking Town, there will be no shortage of money and women, everyone work hard, don't lie on the ground like a dead pig!"

Hearing Gram's words, those who were sitting and lying on the ground stood up, and packed up the wooden shields and arrows that could still be used, and as for the worthless corpses, they would not even look at them if they were not related to them on weekdays. Asa also stood up a little embarrassed after Gram finished speaking, and stood with Willow Shadow. Although he was already tired, Gramm's words were very inspiring, and everyone was full of energy when they thought of the routine celebration feast. This time the list is so big, Gram will definitely not treat them badly.

Under the handling of the energetic adventurers, everyone soon finished cleaning up and was about to return to Hawking Town with the Qingshui Niu who had been tied up with five flowers.

"Gram is really still Gram, even the Qingshui Cow can solve it so quickly. My brothers have brought so many people here, why don't you have a share in it, Brother Graham, don't you think?"

The gray wolf group who was about to leave the small waterfall was stopped by this sudden voice, and a team appeared in the place where they had come, and it was also one of the big teams in Hawking Town - Red Fox. And the person who spoke was the captain of the Red Fox, Rory, who was also a trainee magician.
