Chapter 2420 Traps

There was a rustling sound in the forest, and under everyone's gaze, a black hound came out. It turned out to be Mr. Pinkerton's lost animal companion—the hound Carl!

Karl also seemed to recognize Joan and his party, growled at them repeatedly, turned around and ran a few steps towards the woods, then stopped and turned back to growl.

"Karl seems to be urging us to follow it." Hyrule stared at the hound and guessed.

"Maybe Karl knows where Mr. Holden and Pinkerton are being held, and is asking us to rescue its owner." The hound's eagerness prompted Audrey to associate it.

Joan felt the same way, so he followed his companions to catch up with Karl and entered the sparse woodland opposite.

At this time, the "Branch of Elminsur" trembled in his hand, emitting a warning light.

Joan quickly focused on the investigation, and found that Karl was leading the crowd towards the location of the "primordial magic flower". In this sparse bush, a large group of supernatural plants were lurking, and they were quickly outflanking them.

What surprised Joan even more was that the "Branch of Ilminsur" even detected some kind of evil supernatural fungus attached to Carl's body!

All signs indicate that this hound is very abnormal, and seems to be deliberately leading everyone into a well-arranged trap!

The more Joan thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, so he quickly stopped his companions and reminded everyone to beware of ambushes.

Carl, the hunting dog who was leading the way, noticed that the footsteps behind him had stopped. He stopped and turned around. He growled at Joan and the others, urging them to follow quickly.

Hailar, Audrey, Angel, and Ryan looked at Joan and the hound, showing varying degrees of confusion and hesitation.

"Listen to the mage! Listen to the mage!"

Dolly stood on Joan's shoulder and emphasized loudly.

Joan held back a smile and patted the parrot's dull hair. At the critical moment, Dolly was still awake.

Seeing that Joan and the others ignored his urging, the hound became more and more anxious. He raised his head to the sky and howled like a wolf howling.

As if receiving a signal, there was a scalp-numbing rustling sound from the undulating bushes around, as if swarms of reptiles were shuttling through the bushes, and quickly surrounded everyone.

Swish!

Suddenly, a giant snake-like monster rises from behind the low bushes, with dark green scales all over its body, its shaking head is colorful, and the petals blooming in the center of its face are like scimitars, sometimes expanding and sometimes shrinking, like a seven-fold magnified a hundred times. The gill eel's mouth is like a "natural guillotine" specially designed for efficient beheading.

"Be careful! There are many viper vines ambushing all around!" Audrey drew out her sword and raised her shield.

Joan stared at the "Viper Vine" that shook his head and hissed and sprayed misty pollen on the opposite side, and activated "Advanced Internal Vision" to check this strangely shaped supernatural plant.

...

...

The strength attribute of "Viper Vine" is slightly inferior to that of "Man-eating Grass", but its agility attribute is much stronger. Compared with most supernatural plants that can only rely on their roots to grab the ground and move slowly, the most prominent advantage of viper vine is that it is good at imitating the crawling method of a python, which is very suitable for sneaking, shuttling and moving quickly in areas where weeds regenerate.

In such a blink of an eye, no less than 20 vicious viper vines have emerged from the surrounding bushes, and there are still many hidden in the depths of the bushes.

This group of bloodthirsty monsters launched a siege together, but Qiao An was not afraid, and his companions might not be able to resist it.

At this time, Angor also realized that the ground was too dangerous, and suggested that they cast their spells and fly into the air to avoid the viper vines that did not have the ability to fly.

"Don't fly! Didn't you see? A large group of leaf rays are hovering above our heads, obviously cooperating with the viper vine! Once we are forced into the air, those crazy leaf rays will join the siege! Ryan eagerly reminded his companions.

Angel, Audrey, and Hailar looked up at the sky at the same time. Through the dense tree canopy, they vaguely saw a green cloud hovering in the sky, and their faces changed.

Joan twitched the corners of her mouth, wanted to laugh but held back.

This was his negligence, he forgot to tell his companions that he had captured a group of leaf rays when he entered the "Wonderland of Oz", the ones circling in the air at this moment.

But having said that, Ryan's concerns are not unreasonable.

The leaf ray living nearby are not limited to those under the control of Qiao An. If everyone flies into the sky, it is likely to attract a large group of leaf ray to besiege. It is safer to stay on the surface.

Joan's gaze turned again to the viper vines that surrounded them under the cover of bushes. They are born with a protective color suitable for lurking in the woodland. Fighting in such an environment, their own side will suffer too much, and they will be attacked if they are not careful.

It's a pity that Viper vines are not evil plants. Joan couldn't directly kill them with the "Branch of Irminsur", so he first used a "Repelling Technique" to build a safety belt to prevent Viper vines from approaching. .

The 6-ring "repulsion technique" expands around the caster itself, and the radiation range is quite wide.

With Joan's current casting level, the repelling barrier can be extended up to 260 feet away. In fact, he didn't need such a large field, so he compressed the radius of the repelling barrier to 100 feet, and the extra mana was used to extend the duration of the barrier.

At this time, many viper vines had already invaded within a hundred feet, and they were forcibly repelled by the magic barrier spreading from Joan's body, and they were pushed out a hundred feet away.

The viper vines noticed an invisible barrier erected in front of them, and they couldn't break through it with all their strength, so they shook their heads and sprayed poisonous pollen into the repelling barrier, trying to hypnotize their prey and make them walk out of the barrier on their own.

Everyone has taken the potion soaked in "Tears of God", immune toxins, and inhaled the pollen sprayed by Viper Vine, and at most they were choked and coughed twice.

Angor waved his hand and cast the "Wind Wall Technique" to disperse the pollen in the air and clear his vision along the way.

"Viper vines are afraid of fire, so it's best to use fire spells to deal with them!"

At the same time as Audrey reminded her companions, she also blessed her holy sword "Pale Justice" with a 3-ring magical "Elemental Weapon".

Hyrule used the professional ability of "magic warrior", enchanted the legendary giant sword "Tyrfing" with the "flame" attribute, and then activated the three spells that came with the giant sword - "power of the bull", "heroic spirit" and " Righteousness is like a rainbow", and the size and combat power have increased simultaneously.
