Chapter 7: The Scorpion

If she met her target this time at another time and place, Vivien would definitely be ecstatic, but this level 7 monster would appear when she was at her weakest, and Vivien had almost no ability to protect herself at this time, and the only thing she could do was to set her sights on Ryan, a magician who had only joined her team for a few days.

In Vivien's memory, mages were a bunch of crazy guys because there was no target they couldn't destroy, but mages were also a fragile bunch because even if they could destroy a city, their bodies wouldn't be able to get a dagger in the back. Now the situation is very simple, only Ryan and Owen can participate in the battle, there are no warriors who have reached the front line, so where does the magician get the casting time? The magician who can't release magic is better than a novice warrior who has just learned to take up arms.

As soon as she thought of this, Vivien regretted it immensely, she shouldn't have secretly run to the creek to bathe during her vigil, if she had stayed in the camp honestly, maybe she wouldn't have encountered this poisonous scorpion lion, then Barrett wouldn't have died, and she wouldn't have been in such an embarrassing situation.

Ryan didn't know the anxiety and remorse in Vivien's heart at the moment, his whole mind had already been placed on the monster in front of him after hearing the words "poisonous scorpion lion beast", he carefully looked at this monster that did look like a lion, and soon found the difference between it and the lion.

The level 6 Demonic Beast Golden Lion that Vivian and they killed during the day today is one of the lions, and the hair of this Demonic Beast is all golden yellow, which is very beautiful, but the poisonous scorpion lion beast in front of him is reddish-brown. Moreover, the fur is very short, barely clinging to the surface of the body, and the tail behind the venomite lion is also different from that of ordinary lions, its tail really resembles the back tail of a huge scorpion, with a long and long outer shell to protect it.

In the initial battle with the poisonous scorpion lion beast, maybe this monster didn't take Ryan too seriously, so he was careless and took a fireball from Ryan, but looking at its appearance, it was just a little painful, and it didn't seem to be hit hard, which would make this scorpion lion more ferocious.

After the scorpion-like tail of the scorpion lion was pulled out of Barrett's body, it kept shaking behind the scorpionmon, not knowing whether it was demonstrating or doing something to Ryan, and after shaking it more than a dozen times in a row, the scorpion-like lion retracted its tail and hid it under its body.

At this time, if it is just from the appearance, I am afraid that many people's first impression will think that this is just an ordinary lion, but the color of the fur is a little worse, and they will never think that this is a terrifying high-level magical beast. Ryan witnessed the manticoremon hide its tail under its body, and then crawl its entire body on the ground, and realized that the scorpionmon had done this to paralyze its prey and deliver a fatal blow.

"I can't imagine that even Warcraft will have its unique place, no wonder Mr. Galib once said that the more advanced the Warcraft, the more intelligent it is close to human. Ryan said silently in his heart: "When I was a child, my teacher Galib could kill a level 8 earth bear with one punch, I don't know how many magic I used to kill this level 7 poisonous scorpion lion beast?"

"Be careful, it's coming!" Vivien's exclamation came from her ears, Ryan raised her head with a smile, looked at the poisonous scorpion lion beast that pounced on him at high speed, but a thought appeared in her heart inexplicably: "This running posture is similar to that of an ordinary lion, oh, by the way, I remember that there was a thief named Maher who once slaughtered one independently, I don't know how he dodged the poisonous needle behind the guy." ”

"Ahh

"No!" Vivien, who was standing behind Ryan, had a completely immersive feeling, she saw with her own eyes that Ryan and the ferocious poisonous scorpion lion beast were about to have the most intimate contact just two steps away from her, and she screamed again, this female warrior who had always behaved quite heartily and strong in front of outsiders, but at this moment she turned into a little woman who could only scream.

"Smack!" Ryan's body was torn into two pieces by the manticoremon without any suspense, but it was very strange that not even a drop of blood appeared, and Vivien's screams stopped abruptly at the same moment, and her body was also knocked away by the scorpionmon, this impact made Vivian's body turn into pieces in an instant, and these fragments gradually disappeared in the sky.

"Stay here. Vivien's voice rang in Lane's ears: "Hold on here, you won't fall." ”

Vivian shook her head, only to find that she didn't know when, she was actually taken to a big tree by Ryan, Vivian subconsciously obeyed Ryan's instructions, hugged a branch of the tree tightly with both arms, and let her body sit firmly on the arm-thick branch of the big tree.

Ryan smiled at Vivian, and then jumped lightly, from where Vivian was to the ground, it was four or five meters high, to say the least, but Ryan's body was completely powerless like a feather, and he staggered to the ground. Ryan recited the magic spell softly as he got his feet on the ground, and his target was the manticore, which had not yet figured out what was going on, about thirty meters away.

It's not that this poisonous scorpion lion has not hunted its prey, and usually if it hits such a powerful blow completely, it will inevitably knock the prey away, and it can take the opportunity to tear open the body of the prey with its teeth and claws, or use the poisonous needle of its tail to kill the prey, but tonight it hit two prey in a row, but it was soft and did not use any force at all, and the bodies of the two prey were also knocked by itself and disappeared.

As a level 7 demonic beast, the poisonous scorpion lion beast certainly has a certain amount of wisdom, but unfortunately it can't understand what magic is, so it just keeps shaking its head and looking around with blue eyes, until it sees a ball of fire flying towards it, and then instinctively dodges.

With a loud bang, Ryan's fireball exploded, and the wild flames expanded much faster than the scorpionmon that was dodging, so the flames caught up with the scorpionmon that was running away and devoured its body. The flames from the explosion of the fireball came quickly, but also quickly, but in a second or two, the flames blew like a whirlwind, and the body of the scorpion lion was revealed from the flames again.

"Whew!" Several light blue flames ignited on the body of the poisonous scorpion lion beast, which was the high temperature generated by Ryan's fireball technique that caused its fur to be ignited in an instant, and the pain of this skin being burned even a level 7 demonic beast could not withstand it, the poisonous scorpion lion beast suddenly fell to the ground, and let out a howl of pain.

This sound, similar to the mournful cry of a beast before death, made Vivi, who was sitting on a tree branch, feel a strange feeling, and she suddenly felt a little sympathy for this manticore, if she hadn't been fighting since she was a child, maybe there would have been a day when she would have struggled like this scorpion, but she was powerless to escape her miserable fate.

The screams of the manticoremon also frightened Owen to the ground, his longbow slipping weakly, and the feathered arrow in his hand was thrown somewhere. Owen wasn't afraid of the manticore, but of the people who cornered it. Level 6 Warcraft and Level 7 Warcraft are fundamentally different, Owen asked himself if he met this poisonous scorpion lion beast alone, most of the time there is only the possibility of escaping from the wilderness, and there is a chance that ** will not be able to escape, but the magician easily forced this monster to death, if this magician is very vindictive, his fate will definitely not be stronger than that monster, anyway, he has already died a Barrett, and if he kills himself, then who knows about the private relationship between Vivian and this magician?

The manticoremon howled in pain and then struggled to roll over, ignoring the flames that were still burning on its body, and crawled its body to the ground again, only this time, the manticoremon raised its tail high and aimed the poison at the end of its tail at Ryan's constant shaking.

Ryan couldn't help but smile when he saw the scorpion lion beast's posture of preparing to fight desperately, it seemed that this was still a guy whose strength was at the bottom of level 7, and he didn't understand what magic meant at all. Ryan admits that with the melee combat ability of this poisonous scorpion lion, it can be used against most enemies, but unfortunately, even if the poisonous needle can kill an adult red dragon, it must be able to pierce into it.

Ryan smiled, but his vigilance against this poisonous scorpion lion beast had not been lost, the fireball technique he had just released in the way that Victor compressed mana had an amazing effect, a level 3 magic could actually severely damage a level 7 magic beast, and usually this would only be able to do at least level 6 magic, and now Ryan was ready to try another skill he had learned in the past three years, he stretched out his hands and began to draw a magic circle on his chest.

Ryan's hand seemed to move very slowly, and the pattern drawn by his hands in the air was also very clear, but as long as the onlooker blinked his eyes slightly, he would find that the magic array on Ryan's chest suddenly had a lot of content, and Ryan's hand became blurry, one moment Ryan's left hand was still drawing a straight line from right to left, but in the next moment, this straight line had not only been drawn, but also more than a dozen criss-crossing lines near it, and Ryan's left hand had already appeared in another position, but when the onlooker was full of sight to see clearly, only to find that Ryan's left hand had actually gone to another position, and in its original area, a magic array that was definitely not simple had been completed.
