While Luna spoke, she bent her bow and nocked an arrow. After the fine steel crossbow was drawn to the full moon, an arrow with a cold glow shot away. The carrion crows on the treetops immediately spread their wings to dodge.
Phew!
The arrow penetrated the carrion crow's neck, and it suddenly let out a sharp scream and fell to the ground from mid-air.
Luna hit the target with an arrow, a smile appeared on her lips, she hung the crossbow on her back with her backhand, and quickly came to the ancient tree, intending to collect the corpse of the carrion crow as a voucher for the mission.
However, at this moment.
"Wow!" A piercing scream suddenly came, and in the canopy not far away, two more carrion crows flew into the air, rushing towards Luna like hawks, opening their beaks, and spitting out a stream of gray acid.
.
"Be careful." Isaac frowned slightly and threw out a bolt of lightning.
Luna quickly took the opportunity to retreat, and the gray acid sprayed on the tree trunk, making a sizzling sound, and the gray-white mist also rose, forming a large trace of corrosion.
"Chip, scan!" Enzo looked at the carrion crow in mid-air.
"Target: Scavenger Crow Power: 1.5 Physique: 1.5 Spirit: 1.2 Information introduction: Social corvid monsters mostly live in dark and humid forest areas. Because they like to eat carrion, a fluid sac is formed in their bodies, which can be encountered when encountering
Dangerously ejecting highly corrosive acid."
As the chip is scanned, the information about the carrion crow appears in front of you.
This is a low-level monster from the corvid family with average combat power, comparable to that of an ordinary knight. Its only means of attack is to eject corrosive acid from its liquid sac.
"Water Archery!"
Tiffany whispered a spell, and a ball of water appeared out of thin air in front of her. Then it condensed into the shape of three arrows and shot towards the carrion crow flapping its wings in mid-air.
Phew! Phew!!
The carrion crows hit by the water arrows fell from the air one after another.
Sean immediately stepped forward, pulled out the cross sword from his waist, and quickly nailed the two carrion crows to the ground, and then cut off their wings as proof of the mission.
"Well done!"
As soon as he entered the dark forest, he killed three carrion crows. Isaac looked very satisfied and nodded: "Carrion crows are social creatures. Since three are found here, there must be their nest nearby."
"Continue patrolling. At this rate, we can complete the mission in ten days!"
After successfully dealing with the three carrion crows, everyone moved on.
Six days later, somewhere in the dark forest.
In the crown of a thick ancient tree, several gray-feathered carrion crows stood on top, with scarlet eyes open, and from time to time they used their beaks to comb their companions' feathers.
Suddenly, a lightning flashed.
A carrion crow raised its head warily, but saw a flash of lightning coming. It screamed strangely, opened its beak, sprayed out a stream of corrosive acid, and immediately flapped its wings and flew into the sky.
At the same time, other carrion crows also spread their wings.
"The Web of Darkness!"
A low groan came from the bushes next to the ancient tree, and the mist in the sky condensed, forming a black net that shrouded a group of carrion crows that had just taken flight.
Snapped!
The black net was entangled with a dark aura, immediately trapping seven or eight carrion crows.
"Dance of Thunder and Light!" Isaac opened his hands, and lightning-like energy surged into the black net. The two magic powers merged and instantly formed a powerful destructive force, killing a group of carrion crows.
Stab!
The black net turned into mist and dispersed, leaving only seven or eight corpses of carrion crows on the ground.
"Haha, another crow's nest has been solved!"
There was a commotion in the bushes, and Isaac walked out first. He first glanced at the crow carcass on the ground, and then looked at the ancient trees not far away. There was a carrion crow's nest hidden among the lush canopy.
.
Of course, the nest has now been emptied, and all the carrion crows inside have been killed.
"Sean, you cooperated well just now." Then, Isaac praised again.
"There, I'm just acting as a distraction. What really kills these carrion crows is your lightning witchcraft!" Sean waved his hand humbly and chuckled.
Luna quickly walked out of the bushes and cut off the wings of the carrion crow corpses lying on the ground.
"Including the eight carrion crows we killed this time, two-thirds of our mission has been completed!" Luna untied the backpack behind her, counted the harvested carrion crow wings, and said.
"That is to say, the mission target is still thirty pieces short."
Isaac nodded slightly and chuckled, ": Speed up, we will try to complete the task within two days!"
"If you want to complete the mission as soon as possible, it's better to go deeper into the dark forest." Sean suddenly suggested, pointing his finger into the depths of the forest and said, "We have almost cleaned up the carrion crow's nests in this area, so why not go over there and take a look?
What do you think?"
"You mean...deep in Mirkwood?"
On the side, Tiffany frowned slightly and said hesitantly, "It is indeed easier to find carrion crow nests there, but the level of danger is probably higher."
"What are you afraid of? Just be careful." Sean shook his head and said, "We are just looking for the carrion crow's nest, and we will not step into the dangerous core area of the dark forest."
"But..." Tiffany still looked hesitant.
"Our mission is just to clean up the carrion crows. There is no need to step into the depths of the dark forest." Isaac said at this time, shaking his head and said, "Besides, there are often fallen wizards in that area, and the danger is too high!"
Sean's eyes flashed, but his face remained calm.
He shrugged nonchalantly and said casually, "I'm just making a suggestion. Since everyone thinks there is danger, forget it. You can also find carrion crows on the outskirts of the dark forest anyway. It just takes a little more time."
Afterwards, the team continued patrolling the outskirts of the forest.
After a six-day mission, everyone has destroyed seven carrion crow nests, and is still thirty years short of the mission target. As long as they find three more carrion crow nests, they can complete the mission and return to Thunder City.
However, after destroying the previous nest, everyone patrolled for an entire afternoon and found nothing new.
"What's going on? Have all the carrion crows in this area been cleared away?" After several hours of patrolling and finding nothing, Isaac couldn't help but frown.
"Probably not." Enzo shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Now is the breeding season for carrion crows. Although this area is only on the outskirts of the dark forest, there cannot be only these few carrion crow nests."
Scavenging crows like to live in dark, moist environments, so the deeper you go into the forest, the easier it is to find their nests.
"Continue patrolling, maybe it's just our bad luck." Isaac shook his head and led everyone to continue patrolling. They searched the area ahead again, but still did not find the carrion crow's nest.
