·
It’s not about intelligence, because it accidentally sensed prey approaching while dormant under the sand waiting to cool down. This giant scorpion, which is about two meters long, is willing to kill any unlucky guy who accidentally approaches. Although it has no hearing, the giant scorpion is very sensitive to vibrations.
It is sensitive and can accurately grasp the position of "Sorrowful Hoof", but it is also very sensitive to light. If it is suddenly exposed to strong light at this time, it will definitely flee in panic.
No holy light appeared.
Without warning, the man and horse walking in second pulled the cart smoothly, but the horse's legs were clamped by a pair of huge front pincers! Almost at the same time, a poisonous sting was inserted into the side of the horse's body!
Before the horse's legs were cut off, the men and horses waved their guns and pushed away the attacker. Although they said they pushed him away, in fact, they only caused the eight-legged creature to stumble half a meter to the side in a messy manner.
The burning pain, the deadly poison.
The front legs of the man and horse weakened and he fell to the ground, but his body was hung by the shackles. The other three men and horses immediately untied their shackles and rushed over with their guns in hand.
The giant scorpion is very powerful and attacks frequently, and its carapace has a defense equivalent to +3 armor, which is very hard. Fortunately, this giant scorpion acts alone and does not have any special ability to be immune to physical attacks. It lasts for three or four rounds.
Later, they were shot to death by the centaurs. Fortunately, the centaurs were strong enough, and the scorpion poison did not kill them. However, the injured centaurs were delirious and had a fever. They lay in the car, next to the strange long knife that was hot under the noon sun.
beside.
The unbearable heat, injured companions, deep uneasiness about the gravel underfoot, and being treated like a cart animal all demoralized "Wrathful Hooves."
"Wrathful Bravehoof" who grew up in the Fairy Wilderness is completely unfamiliar with this desert. Speaking of it, this is just the edge of a huge desert. Not far away is the sea. Occasionally, there are sparse undernourished dwarfs growing in the sand.
Grass has nothing to do with the cruelty of nature.
The men and horses walking at the front suddenly felt that their hoofs had stepped on something strange, soft, sticky, and very dense!
"Enemy attack! Danger!" He exclaimed and immediately raised his front hooves, quickly unhooked the glove, swung the gun and thrust it into his feet! No matter what it was, it was right to attack first!
...This well-made spear could not be pulled out of the quicksand until the end...it was inserted too deep.
When Hathaway ordered: "Don't panic, it's okay." The horse's four hooves had already sunk into the quicksand to knee height.
It doesn't matter, there are ghosts. This is a variant of the bottomless swamp in the Fairy Wilderness. You will die. The words of the helpless little girl are unbelievable! - The men and horses panicked.
In panic, the men and horses treated the quicksand as a swamp, at least keeping their bodies still and not struggling wildly.
The other two horses and men hurriedly took out the ropes from their backpacks and threw them to their companions from a distance. They were determined to pull their companions up, but they were caught tightly by the quicksand on the other side. It felt like all their hooves would break if they were pulled like this!
Can't pull it out?
Why can't it be pulled out? It's just sand. If it was a swamp, it would have been pulled out long ago!
The men and horses are very aware of the terrifying power of nature. No matter what the quicksand is, their companions are about to die anyway!
"...Can you calm down..." Hathaway held her forehead.
"We are very calm! He didn't struggle at all. The question is why he can't be pulled out! Look and look! Half of his horse's body is already sunk in!" The two horses were so anxious that they paced repeatedly on the edge of the quicksand.
With a sigh, Hathaway took off her headscarf, jumped out of the car, and walked straight to the quicksand.
——Danger! Why do you want to walk into nature’s trap?
——Because it’s not dangerous, at least not as dangerous as you think.
Hathaway stood on the quicksand, slowly pulled up her sinking feet, and began to rise bit by bit. A miraculous scene: she kept small steps, stepping on the surface of the quicksand without sinking at all.
"Calm down and listen to me. There are two types of quicksand in the Kingdom of Sand. Inland, there are many empty rooms with majestic underground ruins that are repeatedly loosely covered by wind and sand. If pressure is applied, people will quickly sink in. The locals call it "dry quicksand"
". There is space underneath. If you fall in, you won't die immediately, and you can still be saved. Although you may not be able to climb up on your own and you will die of thirst and starvation. On the seaside, groundwater reverses infiltration, and the ratio of sand to water is extremely coincidental.
Mortar, like very dense mud, is called "wet quicksand." It's the kind you see in front of you, and it's very difficult to kill people."
"But! But!"
"Because the formation condition is underground water, most wet quicksand is not too deep, only more than one meter, and objects with a density smaller than it cannot sink - your horses' hooves can easily sink in, but they will stop when they sink halfway into the body.
It's a matter of density." Hathaway leaned back and continued, "Every child in the sand country will be taught how to escape from the quicksand. As long as they don't struggle to death, they can be rescued. Lean back.
, move your legs, feet and body slowly bit by bit, letting the quicksand enter the squeezed gap. Now you are trapped, it is difficult to pull out by force. As long as you have patience, bit by bit, slowly..."
Swish,
A mysterious holy light flashed, and a miracle occurred. The man and horse climbed a few times and came out of the quicksand!
"Huh?" Hathaway froze in a backward posture.
"Thank you! Thank you, Miss Secretary!" The soldiers threw the confused Hathaway into the air repeatedly and cheered. It seemed that all the words she just said were in vain.
Thinking about it afterwards, the Holy Light is actually your subconscious use of the divine power in the two fields of "protection" and "adventure". Thinking about it afterwards, it was because of these cheers that the robbers in the distance noticed it in advance and lurked in the horse's belly.
The five robbers observed from a distance and saw that the three horses and horses were strong and well-armed. It seemed difficult to win in a head-on fight, so they decisively killed the horses, took out all the entrails, and hid one person inside while the other four crawled under the sand.
.
There are no decent roads in the desert. In order to ensure that the 39-meter-long sword accurately passes through the ambush point, the horse must be killed. Anyway, there is only one horse left, which will not be of much use, but robbing these people and horses of their equipment can make a lot of money.
Already.
Horse slaughter is very effective.
There is nothing in the desert, but a horse corpse lying next to a few cacti is enough to attract "Sorrowful Brave Hooves" to stop by and take a look.
The horse had just been killed and its internal organs had been taken out. Who would do such a cruel thing?
A man and horse approached and touched the horse's corpse with a spear.
He looked suspicious.
Hathaway held her chin up and said, "You three should be able to defeat ordinary gangsters, right?"
"……ah?"
"But it's hard to tell if the other party has a poisonous crossbow."
As soon as Hathaway finished speaking, a figure suddenly jumped out of the horse's belly! Almost as soon as he emerged from the horse, he shot a poisonous arrow at the people and horses in front of him. The venom is easy to collect around here, just catch a small scorpion.
He subconsciously tilted his head, and the armor bounced off the crossbow bolt!
"Enemy attack! Kill them all!" The men and horses raised their hooves, crushing the heads of the bloody robbers who rushed towards them. They waved their guns to fight the other robbers who jumped up from the surrounding sand and appeared, and were surrounded.
After the man and horse were slashed twice, his companions charged over and quickly killed the enemy at the tip of their spears, crushing them with their strength.
Fortunately, the blades were non-toxic and the robbers were not very strong. Otherwise, they would not be so poor with only one horse and five people.
I don't have much money to clean the battlefield.
The centaur captain suddenly asked: "How did Miss Secretary find out that there was an ambush? Do you have the rogue level?"
"Still using "discovery"? Just speculate on the conspiracy theory and you will know. If you insist, I have the protection of the witch." Hathaway covered her scarf, climbed back into the car, and reminded "Sorrowful Hoof" to remember
Cut off the head in exchange for a bounty.
How to transport the super long sword into the town became a new problem. It couldn't even turn at the intersection. In the end, Scowood sent a large number of soldiers to work together to erect the sword. Even the military craftsmen responsible for building and maintaining siege equipment were strangled.
The brain - was finally lifted upright by a large number of wooden machines, looking a bit like a siege tower.
When the great lord saw the knife he ordered, his thick eyebrows almost reached his nostrils.
He realized that there was something wrong with his order a while ago. Coincidentally, the old blacksmith was also capable and actually built it as the last challenge in his life.
There is pain that cannot be expressed,
But it is impossible to admit that I made a mistake. The lord feels very uncomfortable now.
Hathaway respectfully presented a short sword carved with gold and jade and inlaid with jewels. The lord smiled and found the steps in an instant.
"Adventurers from neighboring countries, you did a great job! I like the gifts you prepared very much. It was a pleasure to "exchange gifts" this time."
The thirty-nine-meter sword was transformed into a gift prepared in advance for the envoys from neighboring countries, and Hathaway also prepared a short knife in advance that the big fat man could use. This event evolved into an official and grand gift exchange ceremony.
The commission is completed.
The envoy mission is also completed.
This exaggerated sword has the same exaggerated publicity effect. I am afraid that half of the kingdom and the kingdom will soon hear about the exchange of gifts, full of goodwill.
Where did Hathaway's gemstone dagger come from? - Of course it was given to him in advance by little Kyle. With little Kyle's nature, he always seizes every business opportunity and knows the details. He has long heard about the famous blacksmith here.
He is trying his best to set a world record. You can guess what is going on.
The mission of "Wrathful Bravehoof" has been successfully completed. The poisoned person recovered after receiving treatment, and the two stab wounds were cast by the town's priest without even leaving a scar.
Now for Hathaway,
The real problem is,
How to transport such a long sword back to the maze town, and where to put it.
·
The private group of adventurers is currently heading towards a small village that doesn't even bother to mark its name according to the map.
There are two members of Helaran who have taken refuge: the old mage and the prophecy mage who was hired to monitor you. Most of the members of Helaran keep their hiding places secret from each other, because there is no need to tell each other, and there is a lot of research information in the base.
and spellcasting materials, these are huge intangible assets. "Under the Blood Flag" followed the clues provided by the old mage, and was told that this member had a grudge against Langton's stupidity and the killing of Antonio Xin.
To be continued...
