Chapter 37: Killing and Calculation
After hearing the words of the white-haired old man, the faces of the people present all became better, and some people even had a happy look on their faces.
Although dealing with a third-level monster is risky, the rewards are also huge. Not only will the reward be doubled, but there are also third-level monster materials to be obtained. You must know that a third-level monster is full of treasures, and the materials on its body can even be used to refine top-level spiritual tools. When I have a top-level spiritual tool in my hand, who dares to mess with me? Some people have already imagined it.
After hearing this, Li Yi's heart was moved, and then he said: "I don't want the reward, but I need some purple Ganoderma lucidum. I don't know if Manager Wang can agree. As long as Manager Wang agrees, I agree to help you deal with the third-level monster centipede."
"Okay, okay, brother Li Hao, you are so brave, I agree, I just happen to have three purple Ganoderma lucidum here, I can give you one of them first, and the remaining two, as long as they can kill the third-level monster, I will immediately offer them." After speaking, the old man took out a wooden box, opened it, and there was a purple Ganoderma lucidum inside, and then threw it to Li Yi.
After Li Yi got the wooden box, he was delighted and put it into his storage bag. Purple Ganoderma is the main material for refining Zhiyuan Dan. As long as he finds the other two auxiliary materials, he can refine Zhiyuan Dan.
Others also bargained, but as long as the conditions were not too excessive, the old men in white agreed. However, two of them were unwilling and insisted on leaving without compensation. Although the white-haired old man and the young man surnamed Zhou were not good-looking, it was not easy to keep them.
"Okay, since everyone agrees, let's do it!" After saying that, the young man surnamed Zhou took out a red rope, and there was a trace of heat emanating from it.
"The spiritual weapon in my hand is the top-level spiritual weapon, the Demon Binding Rope, which is a fire spiritual weapon that can specifically restrain ice-attributed monsters. I will use the Demon Binding Rope to entangle this monster in a while, and everyone just needs to attack it together." The young man surnamed Zhou said.
After saying that, the young man surnamed Zhou no longer hesitated and directly controlled the Demon Binding Rope to attack the monster centipede.
Seeing the sudden attack, the third-level monster Frost Centipede was immediately enraged. He dragged his heavy body, spewing cold air from his mouth, and mixed with ice cones, and attacked Li Yi and others fiercely.
The red demon-binding rope and the centipede kept colliding in the air, but the demon-binding rope did not have the upper hand. In the cold air of the blue centipede, the demon-binding rope became a little slow.
While controlling the spiritual weapon to attack the spiritual weapon, Li Yi was secretly surprised that his upper-level spiritual weapon attacked the hard shell on the back of the centipede, but there was no trace at all. The armor on the back of the centipede was shining blue, as clear as ice crystals, and its defense was extremely strong.
"Don't attack the centipede's back armor. That layer of armor is not easy to break without a top-level spiritual weapon. Attack his mouth and abdomen, which are his weaknesses. While he has finished spitting out the poisonous mist, we will take the opportunity to attack its mouth!" said the white-haired old man.
After that, everyone recalled the flying swords, and the blue centipede spit out cold mist again. More than a dozen spiritual weapons attacked the centipede's mouth. Among them, there was a flying needle spiritual weapon that took the opportunity to pierce the centipede's mouth, and then the centipede let out a shrill roar and rolled on the ground.
When the young man surnamed Zhou saw this scene, he was also happy. Taking this opportunity, he used the red demon-binding rope in his hand to entangle the blue centipede on the ground.
"Good opportunity, everyone hurry up and attack." The young man surnamed Zhou said excitedly with a happy face.
Li Yi and others also seized the opportunity. The spiritual weapons in their hands attacked the blue frost centipede. The frost centipede also felt the danger at this time, and struggled wildly on the ground. The cold mist in its mouth sprayed out wildly as if it didn't cost money. Several monks who were close to the frost centipede were accidentally covered by the cold mist and then frozen.
Then, the serrated tentacles on the centipede's abdomen turned the ice sculpture and the monk into several pieces of flesh and blood.
"No, everyone, retreat quickly. This centipede has started to counterattack. I can't trap it anymore. Be careful!" The young man surnamed Zhou shouted angrily.
The blue centipede rushed out of the red demon-binding rope and pounced on the monks. Two more people had no time to dodge and were bitten into two by the centipede.
Seeing this scene, Li Yi was extremely frightened. After listening to the young man's words, he was almost angry to death. This guy promised to trap it at the beginning, but now he let the ice centipede run out, causing great danger to them.
At this time, Li Yi did not dare to have any reservations. There was a red cloak behind him. With a flash of red light, he disappeared from the spot, and then appeared not far away. There was a small green fan in one hand, and the golden flying sword on his head had been put away by him at this moment. He retreated far away, with an angry face, and his face was so cold that a layer of frost could be hung. Because just now where he was, he was swept fiercely by the sharp feet under the centipede. If he hadn't dodged quickly, he might have been beheaded.
At this time, there were only five or six people alive, and the rest had all died in the battle. At this moment, everyone looked at the white-haired old man and the young man surnamed Zhou with gloomy faces.
One of the red-faced men shouted in a low voice: "Two Taoist friends, don't you need to explain why you released the monster centipede in the end? Otherwise, so many of our Taoist friends would not have died."
After hearing this, the young man surnamed Zhou snorted coldly, and then sneered: "Explain, what do we need to explain? My strength is not good enough, and I can't perfectly control this top-level spiritual weapon. The centipede broke free and ran out. What can I do? Killing a third-level monster is inherently risky. Since everyone is taking risks for the sake of profit, they must be prepared to sacrifice."
"If they die, they can only blame their own lack of strength. Each of you can get a little more of the materials of this monster centipede. What's there to be unhappy about?" Looking at the centipede on the ground that was seriously injured and dying after being attacked by everyone, the young man sneered.
But at this time, the young man surnamed Zhou looked at Li Yi with some surprise, looking at the fan in Li Yi's hand and the cloak behind him, and didn't know what he was thinking.
"You," the red-faced man looked at the young man, with an angry face, but couldn't say anything. Because the middle-aged man's friend had just died here, they were full of anger at the old man in white and the young man.
"Haha, fellow Taoists, the dead cannot be resurrected, so please accept my condolences! I think we should divide the materials of the monster! Let's go pick the herbs, and then leave here quickly. You know, Tianyun Mountain is not a good place." The old man in white also stood up at this time and said to smooth things over.
