Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no popup, free to read!
Here is a small-type cave 120 meters from underground.
An opening at each end of the cave leads to different areas of Underground World.
The stone walls on both sides reflect the faint cold light under the reflection of dazzling light moss. Water drops are constantly dripping from the top of the cave, and a monotonous pop sound is hit on the cold ground.
Although the sound is constant, in this dark and deep Underground World, it is still quiet and dead!
It is the only way to survive in this dark world, keep quiet, and avoid the leakage of body temperature. But this is clearly broken today!
A horn sheep that has only appeared on the ground is fixed on the rock in the center of the cave by an iron chain. The dark and cold environment makes it snoring in fear, and the huge wound on the hind leg is still slowly There was blood flowing.
The thick, pungent blood has filled the passage.
咩 ...
The trembling cry of the horn sheep spread far and wide in this dead world.
The horn sheep screamed anxiously, and couldn't stop banging its own stone pillar with the skull top horn, until it noticed the movement behind it, then looked back in horror.
In the dark, a terrifying figure creeping on the ground is slowly moving closer to it!
This is Basilisk.
The huge body with a length of 5 meters at the head and tail makes Basilisk the undisputed big man in this area, and the large guillotine-like fangs make it difficult for them to survive the creature they bite. Coupled with the Petrifaction Beam with a range of only 3 meters, Basilisk has become Underground World's well-deserved "underground scavenger"!
Looking at a pair of flashing earthy yellow eyes in the darkness, the horn sheep couldn't hold themselves in shock, and they desperately kicked jump. But this does not help at all, but it will make the **** body radiate more quickly and widely.
Basilisk was just close to the rock where the horn sheep was. It was immediately blocked by the strange rune array emerging from underground. I bite a few bites and slammed it several times. I couldn't help this rune array. Basilisk was in the middle of Monet. Suddenly, it half-raised its body, and sniffed the slowly flowing air in the cave.
With the unique acuity of underground creature, it smells a familiar and terrible smell from the thick **** gas.
Without hesitation, Basilisk turned around and crawled into the darkness in the distance, and soon disappeared.
And not long after Basilisk disappeared, a howling wind suddenly blew up in the cave, and then a strong black figure emerged from the passage and coiled between the hanging stone stalactites at the top of the cave. .
Finally, the dark shadow fell on a protruding platform on the rock wall, and the majestic silently looked down at everything in the cave below.
Stunned by the weird atmosphere, the horn sheep has been paralyzed, and there is an unpleasant urinary gas coming from under him.
Although there is darkness and no light in the cave, the huge black shadow has been able to bring every corner of this space into sight with the help of low-light vision.
Icy floor, dim stone wall, flowing underground river channel ... everything is under its control.
Hei Ying is quietly in the darkness, with a hint of earthy yellow pupil in the green, full of doubts and anxieties.
But as a minor manticore, it is obviously not mature enough.
All the breath emanating from the horn sheep is incorporated into the nose wing by its nakedness, and the blood flesh that is unique to the bottom surface creature stimulates its blood veins to open, and the saliva in its mouth cannot drip. Holes were etched in the rock platform below.
How does the scene in front look like an ugly trap, but the enemy who arranged the trap?
Little manticore resisted the urge to dive down quickly, and opened his eyes to look around at possible enemies. But even when it scanned every corner of the cave, it did not find any breath or trace of outsiders.
Finally, the little manticore can no longer hold back the hunger for creature flesh in his nature, swooping down with a whistle, and threw it onto the horn sheep fiercely.
A moment later, a strange sound of a small manticore madly biting and eating horn sheep's flesh was heard in the cave.
As a ferocious underground creature, the little manticore never cares about any table manners. The scene of crazy eating is unbearable. The blood on the whole rock is like a small-type slaughterhouse.
While the little manticore was in the midst of eating fever, the water in the shallow pond at the corner of the cave was rippling, and three black figures slowly emerged.
"Invert ... invert ... invert ..."
Gargamel couldn't help murmuring through the thick darkness.
As he murmured, the little manticore was shaking suddenly, and the wide bat wings had just opened and hadn't waited for the flight, Nuoda's body fell strangely.
"Hurry up ..." Grim whispered: "There is a little manticore near here, we don't have that much time!"
"Understand!" Gargamel smirked with a grin: "It doesn't take much time to extract a little of its scorpion tail's toxin, and I promise it will not be noticed afterwards!"
In spite of it, he took advantage of the darkness and quietly touched the little manticore who was sleeping.
…………
Two hours before dawn, the adult manticore scattered to the nearby mountains and forests also returned to the cave entrance one after another.
It can be seen that they have swollen belly and have eaten their food thoroughly.
While their stout hind limbs caught attached **** prey, they rested on the stone pillars and whistled into the cave again. And until they completely disappeared in the underground channel, those nocturnal bats dared to flap their wings and returned to the nest.
Grim watched the whole process from the side. When the sky brightened again, they returned to camp with satisfaction.
For the first time to explore the nest of underground, they did not kill any creature at all, and did not take away the small manticore of fall into trap, but only secretly extracted some flesh and toxins from its body. When the effect of the anesthesia potion was over, the small manticore woke up from a deep sleep, and all abnormalities around it had been completely erased by Grim and others.
After all, the small manticore is not so perfect. Under the pressure of drugs, it also forgot about the previous events, and only returned suspiciously.
With the Gargamel Potion Master, and the toxin extracted from the small manticore body, it is possible to make some anti-paralysis potion. Although it is impossible to completely resist the paralytic attack of adult manticore, it is better than using physical resistance.
For several days, Grim and Gargamel appeared day and night, almost every night was spent in the winding underground channel.
Close-up observation of these manticore's morphological behaviors and living habits, and even sneaked into the manticore lair to find out the topography and terrain there, laying a solid foundation for later cleaning tasks.
After careful planning and careful consideration of Grim's, a perfect obliteration plan was finally determined, and the execution time of the plan was set on the seventh day of their arrival at Plague Forest.
According to Grim's observations, this day should also be a day of large-scale hunting for adult and young manticore family from the manticore family, which is suitable for the start and execution of the obliteration plan.
The plan is executed by all members of the adventure team!
At the temptation of Grim 300 Magic Crystal's reward, Love and others finally yielded.
…………
It's another beautiful night with a few stars.
As soon as the sky was blackened, the massive bats inhabiting the caves came out again in the air, gathered into clouds on the night sky around Plague Forest, circled around and scattered into the nearby forest.
And the nine heads of manticore also appeared again, just a little division of work and went their separate ways!
When they have all gone far, Grim and a group of eight people show their figures nearby, and then go straight to the depths of the cave.
Let Sablina take the rest with you, Grim and Gargamel rushed into the underground channel and went straight to the manticore lair.
Time is very precious. You must race against the clock every second. Before the manticores notice that the nest has an accident, set a trap in advance, otherwise they will be easily blocked in the nest by the returning manticores.
In order to trick the manticore group into Ecuador, they must first control the two small manticores left behind in the nest. Therefore, Grim and Gargamel are only one step ahead. With the help of Witchcraft, they continue to accelerate and quickly advance to the manticore nest.
Unlike the last sneaky, this time they rushed into the underground channel with a gong and drums.
While walking down the channel, Grim kept throwing out Witchcraft fireball, exploding small-type underground creature hidden in the dark into sky fragments.
The huge fireball roar quickly spread and spread in the underground channel. They did not need to look for it at all. The two little manticores hiding in the shadows rushed out in pursuit of the blast.
The small manticore only has the strength of Pseudo-Adept level. Although their combat power is not worth mentioning in the eyes of Grim, it still takes some thought to capture them completely.
When Grim first rushed into a small-type cave, there are four or five underground channels leading to different regions, which can also be regarded as a small-type hub of this underground maze.
Grim just rushed in here, the bad wind on the head was not good, the huge black shadows of the two small mountain-like swooped down from the top of the cave, the huge white tusks opened their mouths, and bite the Grim head and shoulders fiercely.
As for the ambush of two small manticores, Grim has already understood clearly through the latest 'multi-dimensional scene construction'. Therefore, the Grim figure is just a slight pause, and it has successfully used Flame Leap jump to another area. And in his original position, a huge Lava Fireball that stayed there in advance just burst!
If Grim wants to kill the two small manticores, it only needs a solid Lava Fireball to make them dead and peel off. But now, in order to catch the job, fireball can only be detonated in advance.
So, in an earth-shattering flame burst and shock wave, the two small manticores were blown out and dizzy. They were scarred and could only scream out of the fire.
While welcoming them, Growler's casserole-like large iron fist ...
咚咚 Two muffled sounds, and the two small manticore are stunningly stunning!
