Facing this sudden scene, Zhang Xiaoman couldn't help but feel his hair rising. In his eyes, the opponent's speed was too fast, like a flying tiger, unstoppable.
But since he is here, of course he cannot be without support.
The next moment, a cold light flashed beside Zhang Xiaoman, and a spear suddenly stabbed out from the side, instantly inserting into the body of the monster that was still in mid-air.
It's the sand soldiers taking action!
Then, the other sand soldier heading towards the bridge suddenly turned back, rushed to the monster's side in a few steps, and launched a follow-up attack.
The monster was suddenly stabbed, and immediately let out a scream, and then was pressed to the ground under the impact of the sand soldier's spear. Its body twisted wildly, trying to break free from control.
Immediately afterwards, there was another sound of a sharp weapon being penetrated into flesh. The second sand soldier arrived and plunged his spear into the monster's head. He pulled it with one stroke and stirred it for a while. The monster gradually stopped moving.
Zhang Xiaoman saw it stop struggling, and commanded the soldiers to launch a few last-ditch attacks on it. After seeing that the opponent was completely dead, he stopped attacking.
Without enough time to observe the monster, Zhang Xiaoman immediately ordered the sand soldiers to enter the bridge hole. After killing the human-faced monster inside with one shot, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"I didn't expect that the ghostly scream of this thing would attract other monsters nearby... But fortunately, this guy seems to be the only one around, so I'm pretty lucky."
Zhang Xiaoman relaxed slightly after being on full alert for a while.
Looking at the corpses of the two monsters, Zhang Xiaoman couldn't help but feel a little excited. He didn't expect to kill two monsters in just a short while. The points were gained quickly by killing monsters.
Ordering two sand soldiers to stand guard, Zhang Xiaoman slowly walked towards the monster's body.
The monster in front of him was the one that had just attacked him. It had a long and slender body, extremely developed hind legs, and a dark yellow color all over its body. It was difficult to spot when it was camouflaged in the mud.
"This thing looks a bit like a crocodile with pus on its back..."
Zhang Xiaoman looked at the opponent's huge mouth full of sharp teeth and felt a little scared. If someone accidentally took a bite of this thing, the consequences would be disastrous.
He slowly knelt down and stretched out his right hand to explore the monster's body.
"Ding, absorb the essence of the Toad Crocodile, and your points will increase by 4 points."
The system beep sounded, and Zhang Xiaoman looked at his palm with some disappointment. Unexpectedly, this monster looked so menacing, but it only added 4 points to himself.
With this thought in mind, he headed to the bridge cave again and came to the face-changing monster.
This monster had been stabbed to death by his yellow sand soldiers at this moment, and its appearance had returned to its original appearance of a heart. However, because of the surrounding blood vessel patterns, it was firmly hung on the wall and never fell off.
After looking at the other party's appearance and combining it with what happened just now, Zhang Xiaoman guessed its ability in his mind.
"It will make a scream. This should be a spiritual attack, but the intensity does not seem to be high. It may be similar to a parasitic spirit... As for the ability to change faces, last time I heard Mr. Liu said that he encountered It only turned into the appearance of the owner of the villa. Then this method may be a way for it to disguise or confuse its opponents. From this point of view, this thing's combat effectiveness is indeed not strong, and it should not give many points... …”
Zhang Xiaoman stretched out his palm and slowly approached the heart on the wall.
"Ding, absorb the essence of the fog heart, and your points will increase by 2 points."
"Sure enough, it only has 2 points. It seems that this thing is not a combat unit."
Although Zhang Xiaoman had expected it, he was still a little disappointed. Looking at the current points balance, there were 8 points left. He originally planned to kill these two monsters to collect 10 points and upgrade again, but this time it seemed that there was no chance.
"In the system prompt just now, this thing is called the fog heart, so it seems that the fog is indeed released by it." Zhang Xiaoman looked at the surrounding walls that had returned to normal and analyzed in his mind, "It can create fog. The fog can interfere with electronic equipment, and may have other functions that I don't know about. In short, this so-called fog core can actually change the environment and become the home field of monsters, thus creating an advantage. This seems very strong. It seems that we must prioritize killing them in the future.”
When Zhang Xiaoman thought of this, he suddenly thought of two games he had played before. There were two things in them that had similar abilities - the Zerg carpet and the desolate land of the undead.
"These things are different from the demons and spirits I encountered before. They look more like strange creatures. Is it possible that they are not part of the same system?"
Zhang Xiaoman was filled with doubts.
Unable to get an answer for the time being, he could only put it aside for now. Then he led two sand soldiers and continued to use the previous method to explore the fog to see if he could find other monsters.
This time, Zhang Xiaoman not only searched on the roadside, but also turned around in the ditch. He commanded his sand soldiers to use their spears to stir up the water along the way, hoping to stab out more toad crocodiles. However, to his disappointment, he did not find a single toad crocodile, but he shot out a lot of crayfish.
After searching for more than an hour, Zhang Xiaoman regretfully called it a day. There is no way, my sand soldiers can only last for two hours in total, and with the previous time, it is about to expire.
After looking at the fog that seemed to be fading around him, Zhang Xiaoman picked up the hearth stone and went back.
…
At home, when Zhang Xiaoman returned, he saw Jinbao and Xiaohua fighting. One was on the ground shouting "Come down!" while the other was standing on the table shouting "Come up if you dare!"
Zhang Xiaoman looked at these two items helplessly, wondering whether he should go to the other two places in the information to check next.
He opened his attribute panel, looked at the energy value displayed inside: 2/30, and finally gave up the idea for the time being.
He can no longer summon sand soldiers, and he can't even use a small skill. Going out to face unknown monsters directly will undoubtedly greatly increase the danger.
Looking at the time, it was not yet 5 o'clock, so Zhang Xiaoman decided to go to the woods in the north of the city again. There, he could feel the last bit of energy left. He must have been able to absorb it all after passing by this time.
Sure enough, half an hour later, Zhang Xiaoman took the car back to the grove. After absorbing 11 points of energy from the previous space node position, he could no longer sense the energy fluctuations nearby. At this point, the resources in this small forest have finally been completely cleared.
