Chapter 862: Chapter 862
The shrill and piercing screech echoed as Spiral Snipe, spinning at high speed, struck the head of the Iron-armored Lizard, but failed to kill it with one shot. The powerful attack of the arrow opened up a gash on the head of the Iron-armored Lizard.
Skin was torn, and some holes were drilled into the skull, but the innermost brain remained unharmed.
Although this is the hardest part of the Iron-armored Lizard’s body, it was quite surprising that it could block Lin Yucha’s Spiral Snipe. This attack was usually unbearable for an average fourth-tier.
"I can’t distinguish its level for now, but the Iron-armored Lizard’s defense is indeed very strong. If I don’t attack its head, my Spiral Snipe should be able to inflict a grievous wound," Lin Yucha said.
Enraged by Lin Yucha’s attack, the Iron-armored Lizard charged toward them. After all, it had only felt the attack and had not seen its own wound, and for the moment, it could not gauge the severity of its injury.
"Kill it quickly; don’t let it come over—everything about the Iron-armored Lizard is poisonous, and it will be troublesome if we get poisoned," Elsa said, apparently very wary of the Iron-armored Lizard’s poison, and couldn’t help but hide behind Du You.
"Let me test this guy’s magic resistance," Du You lifted his hand, and a surge of Magic Power roiled forth, instantly unleashing a vast array of arrows. The Dark Flame Arrow Array was now the most accessible magic Du You used for offense. The arrows struck the Iron-armored Lizard, exploding into clusters of black flames upon its body.
While they didn’t shatter the skin of the Iron-armored Lizard, the beast let out painful roars.
"It really fears magic attacks, such an obvious weakness—why has no one hunted them?" Du You wondered. His Dark Flame Arrow Array wasn’t exceptionally strong in single-target attacks, yet the effect was so pronounced.
If there were a powerful single-target magic attack, it should be relatively easy to kill an Iron-armored Lizard.
"This is the Barbarian Kingdom, you know; there are only a few shamans adept at attack here, and our magic attacks aren’t strong," Elsa explained, making Du You realize—this was not the human world.
Humans had many powerful mages, but the Beastmen did not. The Beastmen’s shamans were primarily for support.
"Not good, it’s trying to escape," Lin Yushi spoke up and then, without a second thought, released a lightning arrow. Boosted by Hell Blood Demon Thunder, the lightning arrow inflicted immense damage on the Iron-armored Lizard despite not breaking its defenses.
That kind of absolute damage that ignored defense was not something the Iron-armored Lizard could be immune to.
Considering the previous injuries, the Iron-armored Lizard suddenly lost its ability to move and could only lie on the ground howling in pain. Lin Yucha went ahead and used Spiral Snipe again, this time aiming for the back of the Iron-armored Lizard’s head.
The drill-like arrowhead pierced directly into the back of the skull, pulverizing the Iron-armored Lizard’s brain into pieces.
Elsa, meanwhile, was staring at them with wide, sparkling eyes—these people were simply too powerful. It was known that even if three fourth-tier Beastman Warriors were to face an Iron-armored Lizard, it wouldn’t be this easy. Moreover, when fighting an Iron-armored Lizard, it would often endure the attacks and make a beeline for the water.
Du You opened the orb, eyeing the loot that burst forth. "Lucky, it dropped some equipment."
"What? It dropped equipment? What is it, show me!" Lin Yushi said, her face filled with excitement. Chapters fırst released on 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢·𝔫𝔢𝔱
Elsa, not understanding, saw a silvery-white object resembling a metal-made vest appear in Du You’s hands. "This is it, the Iron Plate Vest."
Iron Plate Vest: Defense 34, magic resistance 29, can slowly heal one’s own injuries. (Yellow)
Du You shook his head, a pity that this thing wasn’t very effective for him. Its defense was decent and it could heal injuries while also replenishing physical strength with that ability. It would be most suitable for Warriors.
"Although it’s not very impressive, it’s passable. Having equipment at the fourth tier is already quite good." Du You didn’t have a choice; the higher the level, the harder it was for equipment to drop.
"Here, you two put this on." Du You handed over the vest to the two sisters since he didn’t need such an item.
"You should take it first. My fighting style doesn’t usually require it," said Lin Yucha to her younger sister. Lin Yushi thought for a bit and then took it to change into.
It was then that Elsa finally spoke, "Big brother, you actually have space equipment? I remember there isn’t much of that, and that equipment, why did you only take it out just now?"
"Alright, it doesn’t really matter if I tell you. Since you want to know, then Yucha, you explain to Elsa." Du You wasn’t planning on keeping secrets, considering Elsa now belonged entirely to his private property.
As she listened to Lin Yucha’s explanation, Elsa’s eyes grew wider, not realizing that beyond this world, there were countless other worlds and that Du You wasn’t someone from this world. These abilities came from their Home World and could be improved simply through hunting and completing quests, without the need for painstaking Cultivation—a great advantage indeed.
It was unfortunate that Du You already found it difficult to support two followers; he had not considered a third.
After Du You definitively refused, Elsa looked at him longingly, but there was nothing she could do about it for now.
"The master has a soft heart. If you work harder, you might succeed in the future," whispered Lin Yucha. Elsa’s eyes shone, as if a thought had occurred to her.
Du You paid no mind to what they were discussing, as he continued to search for his prey. The Iron-armored Lizards were the perfect target for him, vulnerable to his powers, abundant in number, and not low in level, suitable for his hunting.
Even though the Iron-armored Lizard’s skin was of no use to him, it didn’t take up much space and could be brought back for the people in his territory to use. Sadly, he had no interest in the other parts of the Iron-armored Lizard, not even the toxin.
"Big brother, you don’t want these? Can I have this Iron-armored Lizard’s gall?"
Du You glanced at it—the lizard gall didn’t have much use, only providing a temporary boost to strength but not by much. It wasn’t worth taking back, and certainly not worth getting certified. Taking it out would be a loss.
"It’s useless to me; if you want it, take it." Du You waved his hand.
Elsa then joyously took the lizard gall, gestured a bit, grimaced, and struggled to swallow it down. Her petite throat choked on such a large lizard gall, causing her to roll her eyes back.
After finally swallowing it, Elsa grimaced, adopted a special posture. Even the delicate and petite Elsa seemed to exude a very powerful vibe, likely some method of Cultivating physical strength.
