Chapter 398 Hydra

"That thing is a crocodile, right?"

Barn sat on the side of the boat with a bored look on his face, looking at the dead tree trunks floating on the river.

"No, just a piece of wood."

Cui Xi said confidently: "Look at it floating with the current."

"What's the bet?" Barn asked: "If you win, today's -"

"Fireball!"

Before Barn finished speaking, a ball of flames had already hit the dead tree, and the entire water surface was reflected red. Barn's beard curled up in an instant. Because of the high temperature, a large amount of water vapor was generated, causing the surface of the river to Mist is rising.

A smell of meat came.

"Tch, it's really a crocodile." Cui Xi muttered in displeasure.

Only then did Barn react. His eyes widened and he jumped up.

"Don't use fireball on ordinary beasts!"

He yelled: "Are you just using your spell slots like this? Isn't one arcane missile enough! Moradin, I almost lost my beard forever!"

Cui Xi shrank her head and smiled coquettishly: "I'm used to it."

"Don't get used to this kind of thing!" Barnwood said indignantly. At this time, the water vapor dissipated, and the corpse of a crocodile with a burnt appearance was floating on the river.

"I'll have crocodile meat for dinner today. I hope there's still no burnt meat left."

The crew members were busy and seemed not to see what was happening here. After all, this kind of thing had happened too many times.

At this time, almost half a month had passed since everyone left Yatta. Because we were walking along the river, we couldn't even encounter common monsters such as goblins and ogres. If it weren't for the wetlands and wilderness on both sides, everyone would have almost disappeared. Think that you haven't gone deep into the eternal wasteland yet.

Obviously, such days are boring. Everyone has to find ways to kill the abundant time every day.

Tang Sen was lucky. He devoted all his efforts to the research of magic. Using the idealistic magic of the Harry Potter world as the background, it was not that easy to create a magic that could mobilize the magic of Faerûn. Although Tang Sen has been studying the ancient magic system in the Harry Potter world for several years, he still has some difficulties.

He had to constantly use dream divination to recall the various books he had read in the library of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, not only about ancient magic, but also the creation process of various modern magics.

Half a month later, Tang Sen's results can only be said to have just found the exact direction of research.

As for Naomi Hanney, she is too used to this kind of life.

When she was in Neverwinter, she would hardly go out. If this wanderer were to change the world, she would be worthy of the name of a dead house.

Of course, Tang Sen would see her escape into another world and not come back for several hours. He was a little curious about what the shadow world that high-level wanderers entered looked like, but it was a pity that Naomi did not share this information. interest of.

All in all, Tang Sen and Naomi both had a fulfilling life. Only Trish and Barn were the only two people in the team who had nothing to do all day long.

Coupled with Cui Xi's character, there were naturally a lot of jokes on the ship. At first, the crew was very curious about the behavior of the spell caster, but after more times, they became accustomed to it.

Barn was about to get off the boat to fish out the crocodile meat. Suddenly, there was an unusual movement in the ripples on the water.

This made the experienced Baan immediately stand firm and his face darkened: "There is something under the water."

Cui Xi curiously looked towards the river and saw a huge shadow swimming under the boat in the turbid water.

She couldn't help but touch the spell-casting material package.

The next moment, a huge head suddenly emerged from the water and swallowed the crocodile's body in one mouthful.

"snake?"

Baan quickly picked up his hammer, "It's a big guy! Be careful it attacks the ship!"

The crew members immediately became nervous and each picked up their own weapons.

Although the price offered by Tang Sen is several times higher than that of other ships, the crew members who dare to take this job are naturally not weak people. They may be close to dealing with ogres, but a few ordinary goblins are more than enough. .

"Fireball!"

Trish started casting the spell before Barn reminded her, and a scorching fireball flew towards the snake's head.

However, the giant snake was extremely responsive and dived into the water before the fireball hit it. Thick water vapor evaporated from the river surface again, reducing the surrounding visibility a lot.

"I told you not to use fireball from the beginning!"

Baan roared and stood directly on the side of the boat, observing the river carefully.

Soon, he looked serious: "It seems that you made this big guy angry and it came!"

A snake head burst out of the water and bit directly towards Barn.

"Eat my hammer! Filthy creature!"

The muscles on Baan's arms swelled, and all his strength was gathered, and he hit the snake's head hard with a hammer.

The giant snake roared in pain, and the snake's head was knocked slightly sideways. Cui Xi also happened to hit the eyeball of the giant snake with a scorching ray, and the lens was suddenly blackened and exploded.

"Yeah!" She made an excited voice: "Barn, don't let it get away! This is today's dinner!"

"You should first see clearly what we are facing before we speak." Barn's tone was very bad, even a little nervous.

I saw that the river was still turbulent, and then, another huge snake head broke out of the water.

Then the third, the fourth, the fifth.

These huge heads directly surrounded the originally small ship.

"So many giant snakes?" Cui Xi exclaimed, "Did we poke into the snake's nest?"

"No, if I'm not wrong -" Barn swallowed: "These heads should all belong to a monster."

Trish suddenly remembered the "Eternal Wasteland Monster Manual" that she and Tang Sen had read together before.

"Is this a hydra?"

"It seems we have hit the jackpot." Barn looked up at the snake heads that were ready to attack. "One attack from this big guy is enough to completely destroy the ship."

"Is it too late for me to apologize now?" Cui Xi stammered.

"It didn't look like it was willing to talk."

As soon as Barn finished speaking, the five snake heads opened their mouths, revealing their sharp fangs, and began to bite the people on the boat indiscriminately.

At this moment, an invisible wave suddenly flashed through the air.

Five snake heads rose into the sky at the same time.

Tang Sen walked out of the cabin slowly and sheathed the long sword in his hand.

"I asked you what are you arguing about."

A cheerful smile appeared on his face: "It turns out that the ingredients are delivered to your door."

It's the beginning of the month, so I'm asking for some monthly tickets.
