Chapter 1187 Carnivore

Just when Joan was lost in thought, the hearty laughter of the young poet came to his ears.

"Isn't it just to lure the scavengers out of the cave? It's easy, even if it's on me."

Holden opened the storage bag and took out a flute.

"You want to play the flute for the scavengers?" Medea looked at Holden suspiciously, "The hearing of scavengers is indeed very sensitive, and they can sense the wind and grass from a mile away, but I don't think these intelligence The humble bug knows how to appreciate your performance."

"Ms. Gauguin, you are wrong."

Holden caressed the flute with a confident smile on his lips.

"Appreciating music does not depend on intelligence. No matter human beings or other creatures, as long as they have rich and delicate sensibility, they can get resonance from my performance."

"Well, if I understand correctly, you mean that the perception of music is determined by the attributes of perception rather than intelligence?" Medea asked.

"That's right." Holden nodded.

"In this case, the carrion insects with keen perception may really be lured out by your flute."

Joan agrees with Medea. In fact, what Holden plays is not an ordinary tune, but a "ecstasy" infused with spiritual magic-the housekeeping skill of the extraordinary profession of bard.

Ordinary "Ecstasy" will only make the audience fall into a state of obsession, and stand in place to listen in a daze, and it will not be able to induce the scavengers to leave their nests and approach the performer.

Fortunately, Holden, as a level 7 bard, has also mastered a high-end performance technique that strengthens the "Ecstasy", and can incorporate an effect similar to the 3-ring "Suggestion" into the "Ecstasy".

The scavengers who heard the sound of the flute were hypnotized unconsciously, and could not help but have the urge to approach the player, as if the sound of the flute was a courtship signal from the opposite sex.

Joan stood beside Holden, the melodious sound of the flute echoed in his ears, but he didn't care to appreciate it, his eyes were fixed on the entrance of the cave, with tension and expectation intertwined in his eyes.

After waiting for about five or six minutes, there was a rustling sound from the depths of the deep cave, followed by a foul smell.

"It stinks!" Hailar covered his nose with both hands, his little face crumpled in discomfort.

"Be careful everyone! The carrion bugs are about to rush out!"

While issuing a warning, Medea hastily opened the spell-casting material package, and took out a thumb-sized glass bottle, which contained a pinch of phosphorous powder.

Joan also highlighted the "Iron Maiden" and launched the "Shield Wall" mode. With him at the center, Holden, who was concentrating on playing the flute on the left, and the Gorgon, who was preparing to cast spells on the right, were all blocked by the thick barrier. Behind the crystal steel plate, a solid bunker was provided for the relatively fragile professional spellcasters in the team.

At this time, the first scavenging insect had crawled out of the cave, and it was completely presented in front of everyone.

This worm-shaped monster was nine feet long from head to tail, with a pair of slightly trembling tentacles growing on its head, and a pair of vise-like strong jaws.

Surrounding the scavenging insect's jaw, eight slender and slippery tentacles extend out, each two or three feet long, the ends of the tentacles swell into a willow-like shape, and the side curled inward is covered with dense barbs.

Compared with the illustrations in the monster illustrated book, Joan found that the real scavenger was far weirder than the image presented on the drawing paper. It looked like a weird patchwork of huge green worms and cephalopods such as squid. No wonder this Guys are classified as "strange monsters", rather than being included in the ranks of magical beasts like diggers and blood mosses.

To be honest, compared with scavengers, diggers and blood mosses can be called "delicate and lovely"!

The scavengers are not only ugly and strange-looking, but what is even more unbearable is that this guy exudes a suffocating stench!

When the three bloated scavengers crawled out of the cave in vicious shapes, the stench emitted from their bodies merged, and the concentration increased three times. The horrible smell was so eye-catching!

Joan and the others just smelled it from a distance, and they couldn't help retching, and almost vomited their breakfast!

Suppressing the feeling of nausea, Qiao An hurriedly put on the gas mask, and by the way, activated "Advanced Internal Vision" to detect the big stinky bug on the opposite side.

...

Scouting Target: Adult scavengers (aberrations, insectoid subspecies)

Attributes: Strength 16, Dexterity 15, Constitution 16, Intelligence 1, Wisdom 15, Charisma 6

...

The strength, agility, physique, and perception attributes of the scavengers are all excellent, but their intelligence is only 1 point, and their brains are not as good as a dog's.

What surprised Joan the most was the charisma of the scavengers.

He looks so ugly and smells so bad, but he still has 6 points of charm?

Joan felt that this was a bit unscientific.

If it is barely explained, it is probably that the supernatural blood of the scavengers is better.

It's a pity that its inherent advantages are all covered up by its ugly and smelly appearance.

Even Joan, who is more curious than a cat, can't muster up the courage to approach the scavengers, which shows how terrible the appearance and temperament of these guys are.

"úré!"

While Joan was still observing the scavenging insects, Medea had already chanted the incantation, and using the small bottle of phosphorous powder in her hand as a material, she pulled out a circle of fire walls on the flat ground, surrounding all three scavenging insects.

The ring-shaped flames generated by the 4-ring "Fire Wall" divide the battlefield into two spaces.

Qiao An and others on the outside of the fire wall could hardly feel the temperature change, while the three scavengers on the inside of the fire wall were surrounded by steaming heat waves.

Every few seconds, under the urging of magic power, the wall of fire will violently erupt flames toward the inner side of the ring wall.

The mucus on the surface of the scavenging insects that were roasted by the flames dries up quickly, making beeping and cracking sounds, and the tissue fluid in the body flows out from the dry and cracked wounds, and is dried by the flames in a blink of an eye.

The scavengers, who are used to living in dark and humid areas, cannot stand the high temperature, and let out piercing wailing one after another.

Medea heard the call of the scavenger-eating insects, while maintaining her focus on spellcasting, she activated the "Wall of Fire" technique to accumulate magic power, and then spewed flames inwardly. At the same time, she did not forget to solemnly remind her young traveling companions beside her.

"Scavenging insects are quite strong, and they are not so easy to be burned to death. They may rush out of the fire wall at any time, everyone be careful!"

Hearing what he said, Hailar and Audrey immediately put away their attitude of watching the show, and each took out a bottle of "antiviral potion" that Joan gave them before departure this morning, pulled out the cork and drank it dry in one go.

The potion brewed by "Tears of God" may not be able to relieve the paralysis effect caused by the tentacles of the scavengers, but it will definitely increase the user's resistance to the paralysis toxin and prevent paralysis. Gain a great advantage in the fight against scavengers.
