Chapter 115 The Flame of Obscurity【X Edition】
A centipede with a length of nearly three meters can scare normal people out of their minds in the real world. However, in the game, this translucent giant centipede with the unique white mist of spirit beasts is not scary, at least for women like pudding cats. When the elders are in a good mood, they will reach out and touch the big centipede's flat head twice, regardless of whether the ghostly big centipede is happy or not.
Soul centipedes rarely have the opportunity to join in the fun in small-scale battles and hunting in the forest. This does not mean that it is not strong.On the contrary, the soul centipede, as a green-grade perfect soul beast, has excellent attack and defense capabilities, and its ability to attack flesh and blood and soul makes it perform extremely well in fighting wild beasts.
There is only one reason why it has less chances to play, that is, its owner Luhua and his partners hide in the grass every time and sneak attack, with quick shots, ruthless strikes, and timely retreat.In this case, the Soul Centipede, who also used sneak attacks as the starting combat method, had a hard time getting a chance to use his means, and spent most of the time playing soy sauce in the name of "vigilance".
Mu Ning and Hong Yun used magic to attack the target first, Liu Zhefa threw a gun, and Pudding Cat and Luhua were not so easy. Every time they fought, they had to bring their soul centipede and howled like a mad dog. The panicked prey then screamed and knocked the prey to the ground with the force of its impact.
To be honest, at the beginning, when Mu Ning asked Pudding Cat to yell while charging, she actually refused, because I am a girl, and I can’t just yell if you say so. After yelling, I will look like a crazy woman without special effects... But Later, Pudding Cat discovered that the sudden roar often made the prey more flustered when injured and panicked, and some prey even ran into the nearby trees in a panic.Since it is effective, and both the big bad wolf and the little brother Luhua are shouting like crazy, she herself is not so repulsed by loud roars. Except for occasionally worrying about attracting other wild animals, she is still very happy to knock her prey to the ground with a grim face of.
Most of the low-level beasts of the fifth and sixth levels in the forest are deer, wild boars, wolves, foxes, and various large-sized rabbits, mice, and birds. Among these animals, only wolves and wild boars form small groups. Action, the others tend to act alone, or in groups of two or three.
Weasels and cats are generally high-level, so beasts like lynx and leopards are not in the hunting range of Mu Ning and the others. The lowest level of bears and tigers and leopards are all above level [-], and the five of them are far away from each other. stay away.It's not that Mu Ning doesn't have the confidence to leapfrog and kill monsters. Even if he encounters a level [-] brown-spotted tiger, with the cooperation of five people and the soul centipede, it's more than enough to deal with it. However, it is difficult to kill in one blow when the level is suppressed. , and it is not even possible to end the battle quickly in a short period of time. Once the sound of the battle attracts other predators, the danger factor will soar.
The soul centipede can't lie down leisurely and watch the excitement and eat peanuts all the time, especially when the owner's team is about to attack the small pack of wolves.
Wild wolves are usually in groups of five to ten. When actively hunting, they will divide their teammates to the left and right to outflank, and the hunting success rate is extremely high.It is much more difficult to attack a small group of alert wild wolves than herbivorous creatures such as wild sheep and antelope, because wild wolves hardly think of fleeing and retreating after being attacked by opponents of the same level, but will call their companions to besiege without hesitation.
If ten wild wolves besieged the five of Mu Ning at the same time, they would easily be in danger.
The soul centipede has the opportunity to play its unique role in this scene. For the extremely alert little pack of wild wolves, Mu Ning and Hong Yun simply don't have the capital to hide outside the battlefield and fight Taiping fist, because the three fighters preemptively attract When the wolves get their attention, the guerrilla wolves on the outside will find Mu Ning and Hong Yun, and then separate a group of wild wolves to pounce. At this time, Mu Ning and Hong Yun have almost no chance to calm down and cast the second spell. Spells and close combat with the weapon in hand are the basis for life-saving in Hungry Wolf Pounce.
The five humans couldn't escape the wolves' keen pursuit, but the soul centipede, which could be completely nihilized, had no such worries. At this time, it hid in the periphery and used its ambush skills to the maximum, looking for opportunities to pounce on the wild animals wandering outside. The back of the wolf and pierced the neck of the wild wolf with a terrifying sharp needle!
Wild wolves usually don't even have a chance to scream, they will be tightly grabbed by the three-meter-long centipede with jaws and densely packed legs and feet, and dragged out of the battle circle. It only takes more than ten seconds, and a large amount of toxins that corrode the soul It will spread quickly in the wolf's body, and the severe pain from the soul makes the wolf froth and twitch frantically, while the emerald soul centipede, whose body was solidified during the fight, has quietly returned to its hard-to-find translucent state again , fluttering and swam to the next target with a centipede...
Under normal circumstances, the soul centipede only needs to sneak attack three or four times, and the five people inside can easily deal with the remaining wild wolves through cooperation.
Mu Ning was very satisfied with the effect of the soul centipede participating in the battle. Soul engineering is difficult to manufacture, but it is indeed expensive and convincing.
At this stage, it is extremely difficult for players to get a green-grade pet. However, after a green-grade soul egg is hatched, it can 100% become a pet of a player with an attendant. The special ability of soul communication, the combat power is advancing by leaps and bounds, even after death, it will not disappear, even if you think about it with your knees, you can know how terrifying the value contained in a soul egg is.
"Luhua, if you can rub out the double-flicker soul beast earlier, can we also lead a group of younger brothers to push it like Liz and the others went into the burrow?" Liu Zhe's eyes glowed, this thing is so easy to use, he himself I want one too!To be honest, if there are horses in the soul beast, Liu Zhe really wants old man Vachado to pinch one for him.
Luhua smirked shyly and shook his head in embarrassment. He has never even made a primary white perfect soul beast. The works in the intermediate soul engineering can only double flash green perfect soul beasts with white-grade soul crystals. far.
"Take your time, the forest is so big, there will always be white grades." Mu Ning said so, but he also knows that white beasts before the tenth level are extremely rare, and even if there are, most of them are small bosses or small leaders However, it is still a question whether the five of us can handle the big centipede that doesn't even have a name.
The soaring difficulty of hunting in the wild made Mu Ning and his team extremely careful in searching for trophies. As long as the situation allowed, they would definitely beat the prey to a dying state to extract the soul, and then peeled and crumpled the flesh and bones, and took everything that could be taken.
The bones and internal organs are temporarily unusable and can only be buried on the spot, while leather and meat are considered good harvests.
Leather armor can be made after Liu Zhe's simple kneading. Even without cutting and sewing, laying it on the ground for everyone to rest is much more comfortable than sitting directly on the mud full of moisture and moss.Beast meat can be used to set up traps to lure carnivorous animals besides keeping it in your pocket for cooking. If you attract high-level beasts, the meat is considered cheap, but if you attract low-level beasts... Hehehe, throw a gun Serving with the sword!
"Let's save enough leather to build a tent." Liu Zhe has checked a lot of information on leather tents in his spare time. As long as he learns how to build a skeleton, the remaining leather stitching skills are not complicated. It is absolutely necessary to have a tent in the wild. It can make the night much better. The most important thing is that you can build a small bonfire in the tent, and everyone can eat hot food.
You can’t remember how many roads you walked in a day today. When you open the map, you have already gone around a lot. You have already reached an area in the town where players have never been before. There are no signs around. Only Mu Ning himself left on the map. A neat little icon.The information he records on the map is different from the players in the town. The players in the town tend to record the beasts and water sources they meet, while Mu Ning pays more attention to the traces left by the beasts and the characteristics of the vegetation.
Players in the town can only know that a certain kind of beast has appeared in a certain place, but Mu Ning is different. His records can roughly predict the type and level of beasts that are active within a certain range. Although the records are very brief, they can The analyzed information is very rich, which is the biggest difference between an experienced "pioneer" and an ordinary novice player.
The light is getting weaker and weaker, and it is no longer far from the sun setting on the ground. It may be due to Mu Ning's leadership, and his teammates are very cautious in their actions today. Several consecutive daring hunts are not too thrilling, and everyone has no interest in the forest. I got rid of the initial fear and relaxed a lot in action.
"Anyway, today is Friday, and I don't have class tomorrow. Shall we stay and spend the night in the game?" Pudding Cat hasn't logged into the game in broad daylight yet, so he really wants to see what the forest looks like at night in the game.
Of course, the premise is that the daddy and the big bad wolf are willing to stay in the game together, otherwise she will be squatting alone in the forest alone...she will definitely not do it.
"We originally agreed to go shopping on weekends, but we can also go out on Sundays." Liu Zhe was also very interested in hearing that Pudding Cat wanted to explore the forest overnight: "Ning Ning, how about we just spend the night in the forest?"
The area where Mu Ning and the others are located is close to the Andalusian Empire. The day and night are the same as Whistler, which is just reversed from reality. Spending the night in the game at night is equivalent to lying in the game cabin during the day on Saturday.
Eating enough in the game does not mean that you are not hungry in reality. In reality, you can’t avoid eating and drinking. Mu Ning doesn’t want Liu Zhe and Pudding Cat to stay in the game day and night like he did in his previous life. The increasingly extravagant "reality" was completely barren, but it didn't hurt to play games all day once in a while, and he didn't want to overdo it himself.
"Hey, that's great!" After getting Mu Ning's consent, Liu Zhe was very happy, his eyes rolled quickly: "This... men and women are different, let's set up two tents!"
"Huh? Why?" Pudding Cat was puzzled.
"Ningning and I are men after all... Pudding cat, are you a girl, it's better to be in a spacious and comfortable tent with Hongyun and Luhua..." Liu Zhe was very enthusiastic.
"Big Bad Wolf..." Pudding Cat squinted at Liu Zhe: "Do you want to do strange things to Dad while the three of us are away?"
After Pudding Cat finished speaking, Mu Ning also squinted his eyes to see Liu Zhe's reaction, heh, everyone knows Sima Zhao's heart, right?
"Where... where! I have a good heart, don't judge a gentleman with a villain's heart!" Liu Zhe looked at the smiling Mu Ning, swallowed his saliva with a red face, and bent slightly in embarrassment...
"Oh? Really?" Pudding Cat bit its lower lip and looked down three ways: "Big Bad Wolf, this is the first time I've seen someone who can put up a tent wearing steel leggings, you shameless!"
Mu Ning also smiled at Liu Zhe behind the pudding cat's eyes, and said, "Smelly shameless!" Zhezi is also really capable. The steel leg armor protects the key parts with a limited range of action. They can stand up together, and the things they think must be very unsuitable for children.
"We two are 'free love', why do you care about this, a woman!?" Liu Zhe blushed so angry that his neck was thick: "It's only difficult to raise a villain and a woman!" He frowned and showed his teeth to the pudding cat 'I didn't spoil your good deeds, why do you keep getting on with me? '
Pudding Cat also laughed badly: "I'm worried that the forest is too dangerous, there will be 'strange noises' at night, I'd rather be 'relaxed' by protecting you!"
Liu Zhe looked at Mu Ning angrily, but Mu Ning whistled and didn't even look at him, making Liu Zhe so angry!The great opportunity was ruined by this Sanba!
"Let me tell you first that Ningning and I are used to taking off our clothes when we sleep at night. Don't say that we are playing hooligans and bullying women!" Liu Zhe was desperate.
"Don't worry, take it off! The three of us don't mind watching at all, right Grandma Hongyun?" Pudding Cat happily embraced Hongyun.
"Don't take it off, it's cold in the forest at night." The old lady Hongyun gave a more pertinent suggestion.
"White-eyed wolf girl, Bai is good to you," Liu Zhe said with hatred, "Don't get caught!" These words almost came out from between his teeth, and there was a crying voice, traitor pudding cat!
The pudding cat hugged the old lady's arm and bent over laughingly. The big bad wolf boy is so cute!Hahaha!
In the cold and humid weather, there are strange bird calls from time to time in the forest. The hazy fog on the top of the canopy makes the originally dark forest even more dull. Branches as thick as arms are fixed in the soil and surrounded into cones. The skin covered the conical skeleton, and soon a hollow cone with a diameter of five meters and a height of four meters was formed.Mu Ning's technique in building the tent frame was very good, and there was a round hole left at the top of the tent, the function of which was unknown, but Liu Zhe quickly thought of its purpose.
Sure enough, as soon as he sewed all the animal skins covering the tent together, Mu Ning and Lu Hua picked up relatively dry branches and dead leaves and started a fire in the middle of the tent.With an elemental mage present, no skill is needed to make a fire. Hongyun simply attaches a flame element to the dagger, randomly pokes the dry branches and leaves twice, and the bright yellow flames spread with a puff, peeling and peeling. The branches also started to burn with green smoke.It is difficult to find dry branches in a wet forest, but as long as the campfire has been raised, other wet wood can be placed next to the fire, and after a period of baking, the smoke will be greatly reduced when added to the campfire.
During the barbecue, no matter how much Pudding Cat flattered him, Liu Zhe refused to give Pudding Cat a piece of meat: "You duplicitous traitor!"
Pudding cat smells the delicious steak and tears, I am not for you?You are underage, I am all thinking about the "flowers" of the motherland!
"Daddy..." The pudding cat watched eagerly as Mu Ning sandwiched the freshly roasted and juicy meat steak with wild vegetable leaves into the bread to make a sandwich, and then looked at the black meat pierced by the tip of his sword, drooling I fell on the ground, daddy save me!
"Wow!" Mu Ning took a big bite and smiled happily: "It's delicious!"
"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo of meat on me, you two-faced traitor!" I don't care if the wolf pounces on you in front of me! "Brother Wolf... let's go!"
"...You know you're wrong, don't you?" Liu Zhe bitterly thought that you, too, have today!
"I was wrong, I'm going to help you knock daddy down now!" Pudding cat felt that he was really on the wrong team, why did he have a hard time with himself?Especially Daddy, a heartless traitor, deserves to be punished by the big bad wolf&*%¥#!
"Hey...not now, next time!" Liu Zhe felt that he could forgive this duplicitous female traitor first.
"That... Pudding cat, I was wrong too..." Mu Ning felt that this situation was not right, as if he had lost the 'popularity' just now.
"Huh!" Pudding Cat squinted his eyes while biting the hot and delicious sandwich: "It's late! Daddy, you double-faced traitor!"
"Oh! You were bribed for a piece of meat, you really are a double-faced traitor!" Mu Ning said that I was so kind to you for nothing!
As night fell, Pudding Cat first went offline to wash and eat to solve physical problems. After she went online and handed over shifts, Mu Ning and Liu Zhe went offline to wash and eat with peace of mind. Anyway, Ning Ning might be unhappy, but in the game... even if she gets injured in the game, Ning Ning can handle it with a healing light, how convenient and safe...
"No wonder the pudding cat says you are stinky and shameless, you can brush your teeth like this." Mu Ning squinted at Liu Zhe, who was only wearing shorts, blushing and raising the national flag while brushing his teeth. Zhezi is really good at it!
"Bah! I have a morning erection!" It's normal for a young man like me to be agitated in the morning. Do you understand science?
Besides, Ning Ning's back is really pretty... Liu Zhe couldn't help swallowing again, swallowed a big mouthful of toothpaste foam, and coughed chokingly.
The two happily ate some simple food and entered the game cabin happily. When they entered the game, Pudding Cat was poking his head out of the tent to watch.
"Daddy, big bad wolf, look!" Pudding cat greeted the two happily: "There are so many fireflies outside, it's so beautiful!"
"Fireflies?" Mu Ning was very curious. The nearby terrain does not look like there are fireflies inhabiting, and it is not the season for fireflies...
Mu Ning and Liu Zhe opened the low animal skin curtain and walked out. Thousands of dark green stars slowly danced in the night sky in the pitch-black forest, like countless bright lights.
"Day! How come there are so many will-o'-the-wisps!?" Liu Zhe could tell what these small green sparks were at a glance. They were exactly the same as the will-o'-the-wisps that were produced after the death of a large number of Gerud in the mine back then!
"Strange, how could there be such a thick corpse?" Mu Ning also frowned, because a layer of gray-white mist slowly rose from the ground, almost drowning everyone's ankles. This thing is obviously in the cemetery and the free wind post. The terrain is only available, why is it generated in the forest?
"It said something was crawling out from under the ground..." Luhua pointed to the soul centipede who stood upright and raised his head to attract dark green light spots in the sky.
Mu Ning's face changed drastically: "Oops!"
