Ma Tao cast another spell, consuming 3 magic points, and summoned a dire rat to continue investigating the remaining caves.
It was summoned four times in this way until it entered the eighth - the last - cave. The dire rat finally smelled the breath of a living creature and tentatively crawled forward. Within two steps, it was entrenched deep in the underground cave.
The huge creature opened its mouth and swallowed it in one gulp. It reached its stomach in one step before it even screamed.
Ma Tao felt that his summoned creature was being devoured. He rubbed his stinging temples, took a deep breath, turned around to face his curious teammates, and told the investigation results.
"Brother Daqing guessed it right, there is indeed a shark-lizard beast hidden deep in the cave!"
"The good news is that there is only one." Gao Fei smiled happily, "Brother Tao, have you collected any data on the shark lizard? Share it on the team page."
Ma Tao nodded and shared the information gained from sacrificing the summoned creatures with his teammates.
The Shark Lizard Beast is a "super large magical beast" with no clear orientation of good or evil. Like a wild beast, it relies on instinct to eat the weak and the strong. Its attributes are:
Seeing this, Gao Fei couldn't help but scratch his head.
The Shark Lizard's strength attribute is as high as 27, which is already higher than its own red dragon form. Now it is a match.
The shark lizard beast is extremely strong and has its own "Strong" specialty. Its health points are as high as 121, and it comes with level 12 natural armor. Taking into account other modifications, its comprehensive defense level is as high as 22.
Gao Fei did a simple mental calculation and found that even if he transformed into a red dragon form, the probability of physical attacks breaking the Shark Lizard Beast's defense would only be 50%. He would need to use dragon breath more later. The supernatural flames would obviously be more effective in killing the Shark Lizard Beast.
Higher than physical attack.
Compared to its defense, the Shark Lizard's attack power is ridiculously strong!
This huge monster can use its two front claws and its mouth full of fangs to launch "multiple attacks". It hits three times in one round, with a basic damage die of 3d6. In addition to the super high strength modification, the lethality is even more lethal than the high-flying red dragon.
Better than that!
The shark lizard beast is also good at a variety of combat skills, including "Weapon Specialization (Tianwu)", "Mastery Jump" and the most brutal "Deadly Pounce" - similar to the red dragon's "Dive Crush", but with a running jump instead.
Flying and swooping.
In addition, the shark lizard beast also has auxiliary specialties such as "dark vision", "sensitive smell", "tremor perception", "alertness" and "survival expert". It is very alert and almost impossible to use sneak attacks or traps.
Get it done easily.
The most troublesome thing is that this guy not only runs fast and jumps high, he is also good at digging holes. If he can't beat him, he will burrow into the hole. Who can stop him?
Who dares to crawl into the underground cave to hunt down the shark lizard beast?
When thinking about these problems, not only did Gao Fei have a headache, but his teammates around him also frowned.
"Otherwise... let's just take a detour." Li Jiajia said timidly, "Anyway, no one requires us to kill the shark lizard beast, so just pretend we haven't met it..."
Jiang Feng glanced at her with condemnation in his eyes.
"We can pretend to be confused and retreat without a fight, but the shark-lizard beast is here. There will always be other people who unfortunately encounter this ferocious monster and suffer its murderous hands... It's not that we should be responsible for this or have any intentions.
I feel guilty or something, but I don’t even dare to try to challenge this monster, so I can’t lie to myself and say I’ve tried my best, right?”
"I'm sorry, Sister Feng...I blame me for being too timid and selfish." Li Jiajia lowered her head in shame.
Jiang Feng held her hand gently, sighed, turned around and asked Gao Fei: "You are the backbone of our team. To be honest, how confident are you against the Shark Lizard Beast? If you are not sure, we can only
Like Jiajia said, retreat first, and then ask the company commander for help after returning to the station."
"If I were to challenge a Shark-Lizard in a duel..." Gao Fei groaned and said carefully, "Give me 10 minutes to upgrade and wash points first. Under the premise of being fully prepared, I conservatively estimate... a seven-point chance of winning.
Bar!"
"Brother Fei is always cautious in doing things. He said that there is a seven-to-one chance of winning, but we can treat it as a nine-to-one chance." Ma Tao added with a smile.
"That's enough!" Qi Tian clapped his hands, "Of course Fei is not alone! My owlbear has thick skin and thick flesh, and Sister Feng's sandworm can also push up to the front row to help Fei share the pressure.
The others can just hide far away and provide support."
Jiang Feng's expression softened, and he patted Gao Fei on the shoulder and said, "I'm counting on you today, come on!"
"Emotional encouragement doesn't work, you have to give me something practical." Gao Fei took the opportunity to ask for a price and pointed at his cheek, "Here, give me a kiss here to inject courage into me!"
"Hey! It's shameless to say such things in front of everyone!"
The onlookers who had their mouths full of dog food booed in unison, and Jiang Nuxia's face turned red with embarrassment.
The kiss on the cheek was just for thinking about Taozi, and she was more than happy to kick Minato in the ass.
In fact, there were some truths that hurt people's self-esteem, and Gao Fei was embarrassed to tell them in person.
He was single-handedly challenging the Shark-Lizard Beast, and he was 100% sure of being invincible.
The reason is actually very simple.
After all, the shark lizard beast can't fly. Even if you can't win the fight with Goofy, at least you can fly to avoid being attacked. Once the dragon's breath has cooled down, go down and spray it once. If you use this hit and run routine repeatedly, it's hard to lose.
.
However, the shark lizard beast also has a special skill of digging holes. If it cannot defeat the red dragon, it will burrow into the soil. Gao Fei can't do anything with it either.
If teammates also intervene in this conflict, things will become more difficult.
The shark lizard beast can't hit the red dragon flying in the sky, so it can always vent its anger on Gao Fei's teammates who can't fly. Gao Fei can't just sit back and do nothing, so he can only be forced to land and hold the shark lizard beast. In the end, the chance of winning is not as good as a one-on-one fight.
height of.
Considering the mentality and safety of his teammates, as well as the practical need to eliminate evil, Gao Fei decided to reluctantly part with the spare 2,200 experience points and spend a huge sum of money... 300 points to upgrade the sub-professional "Dragon Warrior" to level 2.
Get the "Taunt" skill.
With "taunt", when the shark lizard tries to escape through a hole or attack others, Goofy can forcefully draw a wave of hatred, forcing the monster to attack him instead.
In addition, Gao Fei also cleaned up a bit and added two free attributes to strength and charm respectively.
In this way, Gao Fei's strength attribute in red dragon form can be raised to 26, which is on par with Shark Lizard Beast.
Upgrading the charm attribute to 16 points can enhance the will DC of the "taunt" skill to ensure that the hatred is drawn more steadily.
As for the three free specialties, Gao Fei chose Endurance, Powerful Attack and Mastery Collision, the standard "violent flow" configuration.
