Chapter 19 The Scorpion of Bone Sand
Tonight is the sixth night before the end of the month. The monster of the blood moon finally overshadows the purity of the frost moon, and irrigates the earth like a flowing blood.
And under such a mysterious moonlight, the Qi-powered carriage galloping in the wilderness was like a young man who was fearless, moving forward against the sticky darkness.
As time passes by, the staggered beasts that are faintly in the shadows have become more and more blatant.
Even some mercenaries who did not know the truth also noticed the appearance of these wild beasts.
And at this time, Su Mu also noticed more clearly:
These puppet beasts following the side are now more than several times as before. It seems that more and more crawling groundworms can no longer resist their inner hunger and have found their hosts ready to go.
At this time, even Han Jun, who was extremely difficult to talk about, finally realized in deep despair... If this continues, not only will everyone not be able to get rid of the crawling worms, but the mercenaries will even suck their strength to resist.
So in the face of great difficulty, Han Jun finally made up his mind to be honest.
...
As Han Jun stretched out his right hand dejectedly, he made a stop gesture.
The mercenaries who were moving quickly stopped as if they were granted amnesty.
Even after stopping, everyone subconsciously gathered under the light of the qi light in front of the carriage, waiting for Han Jun to give a reasonable explanation.
But at this time, Han Jun could only look depressed and ready to speak out the real threat at the moment.
However, just before Han Jun was about to speak, the sound of a crisp object breaking echoed in everyone's ears.
Everyone immediately looked for the sound, but then they found that some mercenary had broken a dead bone on the ground.
And it was also because of this accident that when everyone's attention gathered on the ground under their feet, everyone was shocked to find:
In this barren soil all over the ground, countless dead bones were buried densely.
Even the number of these dead bones has reached a daunting level.
And as the dry bones on the ground were prominent, Su Mu, who had been huddling behind the crowd, suddenly remembered in surprise a description he had seen in the Beast Picture Book:
"The scorpion of bone sand is a seventh-level monster with a small character. He is cruel and likes to eat bone marrow. His main attack and defense abilities are ordinary, but they are highly toxic. He can use toxins to kill prey in an instant, and is an extremely dangerous scorpion. Near its nest, there will inevitably be a large number of dead bones that will be abandoned. This is the biggest feature of this scorpion."
...
It was a long time to say it, and then it was fast. When this message flashed through Su Mu's mind quickly and Su Mu was about to warn him.
A thick scorpion tail that broke through the ground had pierced through the chest of a low-level mercenary.
Although the Bone Sand Scorpion is not known for its strength, it is a small-character seldom beast after all. It is still such a breeze to easily penetrate a low-level warrior.
And with the sudden attack of the scorpion tail, two huge scorpion clamps also broke out of the ground, directly locking the body of the person being penetrated.
Then, as blood splattered, the bone sand scorpion tore the man into two pieces.
All this in front of me happened in an instant.
When the mercenaries finally came to their senses and pulled out their weapons one after another, the bone sand scorpion had already dragged the half of the corpse and sneaked into the ground again.
The mercenary who just died tragically was a member of the team of two brothers.
At this moment, facing the tragic death of his comrades under his command, the two brothers were filled with qi and steel hammers, quickly moving away from the angle of the bone sand scorpion, and used fighting skills to shake off a large area of soil.
But even so, when the soil in the sky fell to the ground again, the figure of the bone sand scorpion was still gone. Only even more timid horror was shrouded on the heads of every mercenary, making no one dared to move easily.
What's even worse is that when everyone was highly alert because of the unpredictable bone sand scorpion and was completely unable to escape from this place.
The dark and silent beast shadows also tore the disguise of the night at the same time, and with that dull expression and agile body, they were pushing towards everyone bit by bit.
"Don't worry about the scorpion-shaped beast just now, just protect the carriage and break out, so that the two beasts can get entangled."
Although Han Jun was obviously a little helpless when the Bone Sand Scorpion appeared.
However, after a moment of confusion, Han Jun immediately made the best choice.
And at this moment, even if Han Jun specifically emphasized evacuation, everyone had long felt the approaching crisis, and no one dared to continue fighting.
Therefore, when Han Jun's words fell, the mercenaries who formed the vanguard of the five-man team quickly chose the direction with the least amount of puppet beasts, and directly tore open a passage and rush out without looking back.
Seeing this, Su Mu certainly did not dare to hesitate and moved directly to the vicinity of the carriage.
While slightly blocking the puppet beast, it also moved out along with the carriage.
At this time, as the only person who can enter and exit the fifth-level lie beast, Han Jun certainly consciously assumed the role of the palace behind him.
Not only did Han Jun not follow the carriage, but instead quickly attracted the attention of many puppet beasts.
Then, with its own control, which is obviously better than the puppet beasts, quickly leads them to the bone field of the bone sand scorpion.
...
Sure enough, when Han Jun successfully guided the beasts parasitic to the scorpion of the scorpion of the bone sand.
After sucking the bone sand scorpion of the mercenary bone marrow, he immediately attacked the puppet beasts.
Moreover, as the Bone Sand Scorpion of the Universe, it was not as cunning as a creeping ground worm as a demon. Now it is completely as Han Jun expected, constantly tearing the rest of the puppet beasts.
Seeing this, Han Jun naturally no longer tried to go deeper. Instead, he immediately with the help of his body fighting skills, he quickly withdrew from the area where the two fought.
Because of Han Jun's temptation, most of the puppet beasts were involved in the bone sand scorpion.
As for a few people who were still chasing the carriage, they were blocked from the team by the twin brothers, Su Mu and others, and could not pose a direct threat.
And the biggest advantage of human warriors is that they have higher intelligence and can cause greater damage through cooperation with each other.
Therefore, even the puppet beasts controlled by the crawling groundworms are indeed more powerful than the mercenaries of the guards.
But as long as the mercenaries provide support to each other, even if they cannot kill the crawling groundworms hidden in the beasts, they can at least make the parasitic beasts lose their combat power.
Even if the attack of the crawling worm is too rash, those who can achieve continuous explosions such as Su Mu can also directly tear them apart with the magic apprentice's spell.
