The sneak attack that almost succeeded just now, and the person who took his life was actually such a little thing?
And the opponent's speed was so fast!
Lu Yuan looked at the bloody centipede as small as a finger, a trace of cold sweat fell from his forehead, and he was filled with fear.
If he had been less alert and slower to react just now, he might have been bitten by the centipede.
With the terrifying appearance of this centipede, if it were to be bitten by the opponent, there was no need to think too much about what would happen. It would definitely be either death or disability.
"Something weird."
Looking at the centipede, Lu Yuan's thoughts were flying in his mind, and he instantly noticed something was wrong.
He has seen a lot of centipedes in this mountain in the past few days.
Some of them are indeed very poisonous. One bite can knock down a big wild bear.
But those poisonous centipedes are not that fast. Not to mention it's so fast, I haven't seen anyone who can only fly.
But the speed of the blood-red centipede in front of him made even Lu Yuan tremble with fear.
"The bloodline alien species, or was it domesticated by someone?"
Staring at the blood-red centipede, Lu Yuan was a little confused for a moment.
At this moment, he thought of those monsters and alien species, as well as the Miao people's poisonous techniques that he had heard from Gu Songyun before.
It is said that the Miao people are good at raising and breeding poisonous insects. Centipedes also seem to be insects. When encountering such a powerful centipede in such a place, it is difficult not to think of poisonous insects.
And when I think of Gu insects, all kinds of terrible legends can't help but come to mind.
Lu Yuan's face twitched, and his body that had been steady suddenly retreated slowly.
Although what appeared in front of me was just a centipede. But anything risky is not worth taking.
There was just a wild bear in the cave.
I don’t want it anymore, can’t I?
He screamed in his heart that he was unlucky, and he quickly retreated and fled into the distance.
However, he wanted to leave, but something didn't want him to leave.
When the blood shadow centipede saw Lu Yuan running away, it screamed immediately, then crawled with countless limbs and legs, and its body seemed to be flying, chasing him at an incredible speed.
"This damn beast is actually targeting me."
Lu Yuan glanced back and saw the red blood shadow chasing after him. His eyelids twitched slightly and he suddenly became angry.
He had given up his prey, but the beast still refused to let go. It seemed as if he regarded himself as prey and wanted to hunt.
The majestic Lantau Island Archery God has always hunted others by himself, but this time he was actually hunted by someone... no, by an insect.
Lu Yuandun felt extremely ashamed and humiliated.
A surge of anger arose in his heart, and his original thoughts of taking refuge and hiding from trouble dissipated in an instant.
The bug obviously didn't want to let him go. In this case, if he continued to escape, he would just be passively beaten.
He still understands the principle that if you guard for a long time, you will lose.
If you want to solve the trouble, you still have to take the initiative and deal with the people who caused the trouble.
Lu Yuan glanced at the blood shadow centipede that was chasing behind him. A fierce look flashed in his eyes. Lu Yuan drew his bow and arrow, and shot out an arrow.
However, the centipede is very fast and reacts quickly.
The arrow was aimed at him blindly, but the centipede just twisted its body and avoided it.
Not only did the arrow miss it, but it actually angered the beast. It screamed even more fiercely, and its already extremely fast speed actually increased by a few points, and it suddenly closed the distance between it and Lu Yuan.
Looking at its ferocious appearance, how could Lu Yuan possibly spoil it?
Whoosh whoosh!
Three-ring arrows flew out and instantly locked onto the centipede from three different directions, completely blocking its retreat.
However, this centipede was so dexterous that even though its body was almost half-suspended in the air, its joints were still twisting like a phantom, and it avoided two arrows.
The remaining one couldn't dodge, and it wasn't afraid. It hit the arrow with its back, making a muffled sound, and the sharp arrow scratched on the shell, causing a burst of sparks.
The centipede's shell is so hard that not even a badou bow can penetrate it.
Lu Yuan's eyelids twitched when he saw it. He didn't expect that this beast not only had great speed, but also had such abilities.
Fortunately, although the arrow was blocked, the centipede was knocked dizzy by the strong impact. It fell to the ground and its toes squirmed, and it couldn't recover for a while.
How could Lu Yuan let go of such a good opportunity?
Swish, swish, and several more arrows were fired.
This time the centipede had no time to dodge. Three arrows missed and hit it, making a tinkling sound, and two more were bounced away.
Fortunately, one shot was shot along the gap between its joints, immediately penetrated the inside of the body, came out from the abdomen, and nailed it to the ground.
"hiss--"
The huge pain made the beast howl and scream, and its body twisted and squirmed in pain, but its body was nailed to the ground by the arrow and could not move at all. It could only tremble and neigh.
Seeing that he had restrained the beast, Lu Yuan still did not dare to step forward with confidence. Instead, he took out another jade bottle from his arms, tied the bottle to the arrow, aimed at the centipede, and shot it again with a whooshing arrow. .
With a snap, the bottle hit the centipede on the head and shattered immediately. The powder contained inside splashed out, and a lot of it immediately flew into the centipede's open mouth.
The carefully prepared seven-step incense took effect quickly.
In the blink of an eye, the centipede, which had gone crazy after being injured, turned into a dead insect and fell to the ground without moving.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that his scent would not work on this poisonous insect.
Now it seems that this ten taels of silver medicine was not wasted.
However, to be cautious, he did not get close. Instead, he set up the last arrow in his quiver and shot another arrow at the centipede's head.
The arrow missed the sky and arrived in an instant.
After a "ding" sound, as expected, the arrow was bounced away by the pair of sharp teeth in front of the centipede's head, leaving only a shallow scar.
Lu Yuan's eyelids twitched when he saw this scene again.
Fortunately, after this test, the centipede still didn't move, which confirmed that the other party was really stunned.
He was completely relieved, and then quickly walked forward and came to the centipede.
Looking carefully, he realized that the vicious insect chasing him was actually crystal clear, like a ruby, but it had the shape of a centipede, like a work of art.
This appearance immediately made Lu Yuan more certain that this was definitely a strange species.
I just don’t know if it’s natural or cultivated by others.
"But no matter which way it is, if you fall into my hands today, you, the beast, will be unlucky."
Thinking of the thrilling experience of nearly losing his life just now, Lu Yuan stared at the stunned Centipede and gritted his teeth.
Without hesitation, he directly pulled out the long sword from his waist, and then pointed the tip of the sword at the centipede's head. The internal force in his body agitated, gathered in his palms, and then stabbed it hard.
There was a pop.
This time the centipede's hard shell failed to protect its brain.
The tip of the sword broke through the defense and directly split the beast's head into two halves. Some red juice flowed out, and it actually gave off a strange fragrance.
Sure enough, it is a strange species, even if it is dead, it is so magical.
