The biggest feature of the "Cracking Earth" game is the simulation of creatures. No matter how high the level difference is, even a giant dragon - if you have the opportunity to attack the vital point and the attack strength is enough, it can cause considerable or even huge damage. . So... after the tenth poisoned arrow pierced the Scorpion King's eye socket and splashed a handful of blood, the huge Scorpion King was silent again.
The Scorpion King died, but Roddy didn't feel relieved at all.
He bypassed the scorpion king with a huge carapace, and ran towards Sally—the fluorescent poisonous scorpions in the distance had already dispersed because of the death of the scorpion king. Fortunately, otherwise, what Rody saw must be Sally being killed. The scene of countless scorpions drowning.
But the situation at this time is not optimistic at all. Sally has been stung by poisonous scorpions countless times, and her life is in danger at any time. If it was when playing a dungeon before, these scorpion poisons are not surprising at all, because players will definitely carry Antidote potions, but let alone antidote potions now, even alchemists are scarce resources that cannot be found in the territory with lanterns. Where can I find antidote materials
"damn it!"
When Rody saw Sally's appearance, he still felt that he seemed to be late. He picked up the girl who had fallen into a coma, got up to confirm the position, ignored the dead scorpion king at all, carried her and ran towards the creek of Stalo like crazy—to deal with scorpion venom, except to use Potion, another method developed by the players is to immerse the whole body in water, so that the poisoned person can wake up from the illusion, and as for the toxin damage...
Rody can only hope that Sally's blood volume can survive this level.
Because it took a lot of time to prepare the trap, the day after killing the Scorpion King has already seen the light. Rody found the source of Sterow's Creek without much effort - a small pool with a slightly higher terrain, and then jumped into the icy water with Sally in his arms without saying a word.
The temperature of the cool spring water was extremely low, which made him startled uncontrollably, but he continued to walk towards the deep water area without stopping, and in the end, only the face of Sally in his arms was exposed out of the water. Roddy, who was frozen and stiff, wrapped his arms around the weak body of the girl in his arms, tried his best to support her body to float in the water, and anxiously waited for her to recover from the illusion.
If she couldn't recover, it only meant one possibility—the damage from the toxin exceeded what she could bear, and she died immediately after all the blood was drained.
This is the place where the later scorpion king "Therix" polluted the water source, and Rody knew the terrain very well. The final task given to the player by the wood elf village is to kill Serix, and use the poison gland in his tail needle to give to the village chief in exchange for a reward. But all of this happened two years later. Two years ago today, do the wood elves still need the player's help to kill the Scorpion King at the water source
Rody is considering whether to go to the wood elf village for help. He understands wood elf language, but those conservative elves probably cannot easily accept the appearance of humans. Even after two years, the wood elf village gradually opened due to the influx of players. However, there are still many wood elves who treat humans with a ignorant or even hostile attitude.
But at this time, the materials that can be used to make antidote potions are estimated to be only available to those wood elves.
Thinking of this, Rody was very anxious. He lowered his head to check Sally's injury, but unexpectedly, what he saw was a pair of bright and round eyes.
Sally didn't know how she woke up, she only knew that she was running helplessly in a dreamlike illusion, until the world suddenly collapsed in the bone-piercing cold, and then Luo Di frowning appeared in front of her eyes An anxious face.
At this moment, Sally felt confused—she seemed to have forgotten what she had just experienced, and even who was the man holding her in front of her, but when memories flooded in, her gaze From confusion to uncontrollable panic, and after Rody's face became clear in her eyes, Sally finally came back to her senses, but then she made a movement that she couldn't even imagine.
She stretched out her arms and hugged Roddy tightly almost instinctively.
Sally didn't know why she was so excited after confirming that Rody was still alive. Although Sally had learned the most words "be calm" since she was a child, she obviously didn't control her emotions well at this time.
The two young people who had met for less than a week hugged each other quietly in the icy pool, seeming to have forgotten the dangerous jungle environment around them, and even more ignored the thrilling experience that they killed the Scorpion King together.
Roddy felt that Sally wanted to squeeze out all the air in his chest, and it seemed that what was strangling him was not a human being but an octopus—but obviously these were not the reasons why he was still standing there.
Speaking of which, at this time Rody was far more shocked than Sally.
In his impression, an ordinary 8 player couldn't resist more than four attacks from the poisonous scorpion, let alone a petite and frail girl like Sally. What's more, besides creating illusions, the poisonous scorpion's toxin also has a strong paralyzing effect. For human beings, unless an antidote is used, even a level 10 player will be paralyzed for half a day.
But now, not only did Sally not become paralyzed and unconscious, but her mind was clear, her eyes were clear, and her hands tightly held Rody, as if she had never been injured.
After ten seconds of silence, Rody finally came back to his senses, hurriedly carried Sally out of the stream trembling, and sat down on the dry grass by the pool with his whole body soaked. After a few sneezes, , didn't even have time to take off his coat, so he leaned in front of Sally's legs and carefully observed the wound.
He couldn't care about etiquette at all at this time, because the mysterious "invalidation" of the scorpion toxin at the moment really made it impossible for him to understand...
Sally's calf is slender and weak. Because it was unprotected when walking through the forest before, there were many scratches and puncture wounds on it, but the most conspicuous thing on it at the moment was the red and swollen marks from the poisonous scorpion bite. Rody counted them and felt a "thump" in his heart. "A sound - because there are 12 bite wounds on it.
Roddy swallowed, he knew very well that according to common sense, Sally should be dead at this time and could not die any more.
"Character information."
Not caring so much, Rody said such an unbelievable sentence in front of Sally, and then he looked at the data displayed above Sally's head, and frowned even more - because it showed that her blood volume was still six There are so many successes.
"Could it be toxin purification? Or...toxin immunity? No..."
Roddy sat there depressed, with undisguised surprise in his tone—but when he raised his eyes and wanted to say something to Sally, the words stuck in his throat.
Because the clothes were completely soaked, the linen gauze skirt was completely attached to Sally's body at this moment, completely showing the outline of her body in front of Rody. Although Luo Di is an otaku who has experienced painful feelings, it does not mean that he does not understand the beauty of the female body. At this moment, a lively young and beautiful girl is sitting in front of him in a wet posture. Luo Di said that no reaction is a lie human.
Embarrassed, overwhelmed.
Sally also noticed this, but she walked out of the embarrassing situation faster than Rody at this time, and said, "I...I feel like I don't have any serious problems. Can I light a fire and roast my clothes now?"
Rody looked away, not daring to stay on Sally anymore. He stood up tremblingly, lowered his head and replied, "Wait...here, I'll go pick up firewood right away."
Turning around and taking a few steps, he stopped suddenly, turned his back to Sally and said, "It's best to take off your clothes. If you keep wearing them, you'll... get sick."
Sally's face turned red in an instant. She originally wanted to ignore Rody's opinion, but after a cold wind blew in the forest in the morning, Sally sneezed unavoidably. Sally stretched out her hand tremblingly.
Rody, who walked a hundred meters away, was not worried about any monsters attacking Sally, because according to the procedure, this was already a safe area after the dungeon was completely cleared. Far. Trotted back to pick up all the equipment, cut off the tail of the huge scorpion king, carefully put away the poisonous glands, picked up the animal skins and food that had been thrown away before, he finally dragged a lot of things Back to Sally.
Sally was almost naked at this time, and she just put her skirt on her body as a shawl. Rody tilted his head and put the leopard skin in front of her in embarrassment, and then turned his head to light a fire silently. Now, after going through several life-and-death situations, Sally's attitude towards Rody has changed too much. She blushed and wrapped her body in animal skins, but she felt that when she faced Rody like this, she still didn't have much in her heart. Resisting and shy, the chaotic emotions caused by the battle just now gradually subsided. After a moment of silence, she said: "I never thought that I would have such a day. I used to read that there are residents living in the jungle. Now I... Are we similar to them?"
"This...that's far from it." Rody lit the bonfire, blew the smoke, propped up Sally's linen skirt with a tree branch and roasted it by the fire, and tried to reply in a steady tone: "Life is in the In the jungle... how should I put it, those guys are not as primitive as you imagined, such as the wood elves, and in some respects, their lives are actually better than those of Nolan Village. Well, their brewing technology is something we will never be able to match of."
Luo Di didn't have any concept of "reservedness" in his head. He just knew that if he didn't dry his clothes, he might be blown to the heart immediately, so he also took off his coat tremblingly, and dried them in front of the campfire. .
The habit of a lone traveler is hard to get rid of. Although there is an extra opposite sex by his side, Roddy will not let himself catch a cold and sneeze for a week because of some "face" issues.
Just like that, Rody, who was only wearing underwear, and Sally, who was naked but wrapped in leopard skin, sat side by side, staring straight at the bonfire in front of them, and began to chat in a strange atmosphere.
