The dry wind howling in the desert blew Reed's cloak. He stretched out his hand to hold down his slightly raised hat and shook the yellow sand and gravel accumulated on it.
Looking at the exposed dorsal fins of several Axais wandering in the sand in front of him, Reed knew that there were no Rexais inside, they were just a few ordinary Axais.
In fact, the individual differences among void creations like Exei are still very large. There are terrifying behemoths like Rek'Sai, and there are ordinary Exais as big as jackals and hounds.
As for the Axels in front of us, we can tell by the size of their dorsal fins that they are obviously not very big and are just ordinary individuals among the Axels.
Of course, for the petite yordles, this size of Axel is actually big enough.
However, for an ordinary armed caravan, as long as the guards have some courage, only three or four people can kill such an Axel. Of course, they may have to pay one or two people as the price of killing it.
In fact, the best way is to use the camel as bait first, and then let the guards kill it. The Rai people who serve as guides generally suggest this, but in Shurima now, human life is much cheaper than camels.

"Monster! Die!"
Yuumi did not panic, she shook her tail, and a magic missile was thrown out by her, hitting an Axel that broke out of the sand and jumped out of the ground.
The missile swayed with a flaming tail, like a small yellow fish. Although it looked cute, its power was not small at all. The missile hit the head of the Axel and directly hit the Axel.
flew out.
"Wow! I love magic!"
Looking at the results of her "fishing missile", Yumi was obviously a little proud, but her attack did not cause much damage to the Axel, and the Axel was shaken by the blow.
His head quickly rushed towards Yumi and the "Door Magic Book".
This caused this strange pair to immediately stage a scene of "flying separately when disaster strikes". Yes, Yumi herself can actually fly, but this cat is too lazy, and usually lets the "Door Magic Book" carry it with her.
She flew together.
But there's nothing you can do about it. How can you expect a cat to be diligent? Even if the cat is a magical cat.
"Qiang!"
There was a sound of a sharp blade being unsheathed, and when the Axel that rushed towards Yumi and the "Door Magic Book" landed on the ground, it was already split in half by the sharp blade in Reed's hand.
The Axel fell to the ground. Although it had just been killed, its flesh had already begun to leak disgusting pus and foam, and the rate of decay was very abnormal.
"As expected, this creature is not edible."
Reed shook the sharp blade in his hand. The shimmering sharp blade was not stained with any blood or dirt. It was obvious at a glance that it was a good magic weapon.
However, what he said made Yumi feel a little dazed. She almost lost her balance and fell from the air to the ground.
"No matter how you look at this thing, it doesn't look like it's edible, right?"
Looking at the strange and terrifying creature in front of her, Yumi had never made any connection between Exe and food.
Void creatures like Axe have a very special appearance. They have no eyes, and only one mouth on their entire face. The mouth is full of huge teeth, and a long tongue stretches out from time to time to smell the scent of prey in the wind.
The powerful forelimbs arch from left to right, together with the leech-like tail trailing behind them, to support their bodies. There are also dorsal fins on their backs, which are exposed when they dive into the yellow sand.
They track their prey with the same ability as "geohearing", but they can only hear the sound of movement. If the prey is stationary, they cannot detect it.
This is actually the reason why the Rai people practice the "Quiet Step". A true "Quiet Step" master can even escape from the hands of the "Void Escape Beast" Reksai, and can even deceive the queen.
Perception.
"roar!"
One of its companions was killed, which made the remaining Axels feel threatened. One of them immediately began to retreat, and it was unclear whether he was fleeing the battle or going to fetch reinforcements.
But the several Axels roared almost at the same time, which made Reid certain that they wanted to call the furious Queen Rexel over.
The wind spirit lingered around Reed, and his figure became blurred, and the cold light flickered continuously. When the wind spirit completely stopped, Reed also sheathed the blade again.
The Axels stopped roaring, and their bodies broke in the middle almost at the same time. The disgusting pus and foam began to flow out, and the corpses began to decay rapidly.
"Wow! Reed, you are so awesome!"
Seeing this scene, Yuumi acted very competently as a brag team next to her, as if she always hit the 666 pendant immediately after her teammates showed off their skills.
"Don't do six basic things."
Reed waved his hand casually. These are just peanuts that are not even appetizers. Killing them would be a waste of time for Reed. Even if there are more of these Axels, they will not be able to force him to pull out the second one.
Two swords.
However, Rek'Sai, the queen of these Axels, may give Reed the opportunity to draw his second sword and fight.
"Should we continue to find Rek'Sai?"
Yuumi, who felt that they could definitely defeat the monster, became more and more eager to take Reed to find Rek'Sai.
"Just wait, that guy should be here soon, if his hearing isn't that bad."
But Reed felt that there was no need for them to look for each other anymore. The roars of Axel just now should have attracted it. Even if it was too far away to hear it, Reed deliberately let one go.
Give it a message.
Yuumi did not object to Reed's statement, so they began to wait for the arrival of the "Void Escape Beast" Rek'Sai. In order to prevent the guy from losing his target, Reed was very considerate and kept spinning around to make noise.
And the monster did not disappoint their expectations. It didn't take long before it rushed here.
It was really a huge creature. Just looking at its purple dorsal fin exposed on the sand, it was already several times the size of those little Axel's dorsal fins. It was just like a big shark wandering in the desert.
"Here comes the monster!"
Yuumi also spotted Reksai who was approaching quickly. She immediately approached Reed and blew out a large magic shield bubble around them, wrapping her, Reed, and the "Dome Grimoire" together.
