Volume 5: Taming the Beast Chapter 11: Giant Whirlpool Crocodile (Part 1)
This is a battle that really makes me feel ashamed.
In the fight with the Red Mountain Penetrator and the servant demon Hakhtu, Yan Zhen and Xian Ge Yayi cooperated well and took turns to attack, not even giving them a chance for close combat. They knocked the two unlucky guys to the ground in just a few moves, causing me to concentrate on the defensive posture for a long time, which was a complete waste of my emotions.
On the other side, Feiyin won the magic exchange battle with the Red Mountain Summoner with an absolutely overwhelming advantage - she also kept complaining that I didn't help her, causing her to waste so much magic power - for this, I had to compensate her with a "Blue Diamond Star" ring that increases the effect of ice magic.
Finally, the three of them stood under the arrow tower and fired two rounds of volleys, easily eliminating the Red Mountain sniper standing on the arrow tower.
From the beginning to the end, I had nothing to do with the entire battle. I could barely be considered an enthusiastic and redundant spectator, always trying to help, but in the end I was of no help at all - I neither attacked the enemy nor was I attacked by the enemy, and I got through the battle in an extremely awkward way.
If I must say that I helped in some way: after the three of them shot and killed the sniper on the arrow tower, I climbed to the top of the tower, turned over his body, found thirty-six silver coins and a grass mushroom, and then gave them to Feiyin - that's all I did in this battle.
The subsequent battles were equally easy and boring. Our opponents were all dark elves four or five levels lower than us, and they always appeared in twos and threes, and their numbers were also smaller than ours. In fact, this was originally supposed to be a task that Yan Zhen had to complete alone, and in my opinion, she was fully capable of completing it.
Such a boring battle really did not arouse any interest. Soon, we fought our way into the Red Mountain Cave where the dark elves were entrenched. In an underground river deep in the cave, we found our target: the whirlpool crocodile A. Stan.
When I saw this huge aquatic monster, I couldn't help but gasp.
I had never . Its flat mouth was almost as wide as my waist, and it was as long as three wooden boats connected from head to tail. I thought that if its appetite was good enough, it could swallow me whole in one gulp without worrying about my shoulder getting stuck in its throat.
In fact, I have not seen the full picture of the whirlpool crocodile until now. This monster, which feels a bit like a sub-dragon, is always lingering under the water, casting its huge shadow in the sparkling waves, and only pokes its big head out of the water when it takes a breath, or occasionally raises its thick tail to playfully knock on the water, making a scary "bang bang" sound and splashing water.
"Ah, what a cute little crocodile!" Yan Zhen shouted in surprise when he saw the giant crocodile A. Stan for the first time. If we hadn't grabbed her in time, she would have plunged into the underground river and become the giant crocodile's midnight snack. In the eyes of the unprincipled animal protectionist elf female ranger, the animals in this world seem to be divided into two types: cute little animals, and even cuter and smaller animals.
"This 'little crocodile' is bigger than a four-wheeled carriage." I suppressed my anger and teased in the same coquettish tone as Yan Zhen.
"Then it's also a little crocodile!" The long-haired elf girl raised her head towards me shamelessly and said with a specious argument.
I was speechless.
"By the way, Yan Zhen, how can you tame it?" Finally, Xian Ge Yayi still maintained a clear mind and asked Yan Zhen.
"The animal tamer trainer gave me a whistle. As long as I can blow it at the animal for twenty seconds within a distance of five steps, I can tame it again." Yan Zhen took out an emerald green stone whistle and showed it to us.
Twenty seconds? This is enough time for this level 38 "Rage" monster to make a delicious river dish with you and other fish and shrimps, chew you slowly and swallow it into its stomach, and even have time to use your bones to pick out the meat scraps from the teeth - I thought so realistically, but wisely did not say my true thoughts in front of the geese.
"But it's underwater now, and it's not easy to get close to it. Moreover, its level is so high, and we are not as flexible underwater as on land, so it is difficult for us to subdue it." Fei Yin frowned slightly and said worriedly.
Yan Zhen obviously didn't come up with any good ideas. She blinked and said innocently, "Actually, I can just go into the water by myself. It doesn't have to be so troublesome." Her opinion was automatically ignored by us.
Seeing the geese eager to try, Xian Ge Yayi stared at the water in front of him for a long time. Suddenly, he turned around, looked at his fellow male with enthusiasm, and said resolutely: "If it doesn't work, I'll go into the water and try to lure it up."
"You're crazy, that's a level 38 violent monster!" God knows what kind of ghost thing blocked the elven archer's rational vision and made him come up with such a risky idea. I couldn't help but scream and dissuade him loudly.
"What else can we do? We can't let a little girl take risks alone." Xiange Yayi tried her best to sound heroic, but couldn't hide the fact that her voice was trembling.
"Xiao Xianzi..." At this time, Feiyin came forward, patted Xiange Yayi on the shoulder and said to him, "...In my impression, this is the most manly you have behaved since we met..."
Fei Yin's words made Xiange Yayi raise his head more handsomely, "You don't have to persuade me..." he said, "...Since we are helping Yan Zhen, we must help to the end." As he said that, he glanced secretly in the direction of Yan Zhen with his eyes slanted. The elf girl with long hair was looking at him at this time. When her eyes met his, she immediately lowered her head in embarrassment.
"I'm not trying to persuade you." Fei Yin said earnestly, "I just want to tell you to take off all your equipment before going into the water. It doesn't matter if you are bitten to death by a crocodile , but if your equipment is damaged, you will have to spend money to repair it..."
" Well……"
This was the saddest farewell I have ever seen.
