Legend has it that the unicorn is a pure and noble creature, and as long as you touch it, it will bring good luck to people.
It's a pity that the black-faced Li Xiao has no such luck.
He was very depressed and confused——
We are all players, so why should we treat them differently? Even if we don’t touch them, we won’t let them touch them.
I am very unhappy, and I urgently need an elite creature with blind eyes to vent my anger...
As luck would have it, in the jungle on the other side of the river, a tall raptor suddenly jumped out. When it saw the two players on the other side, the raptor's eyes lit up, and with a roar, it was about to cross the river to attack.
Two people.
Li Xiao's eyes also lit up - Good guy, this is specifically aimed at the muzzle of the gun!
Although the elite creatures in the Arkworld are not as conspicuous as in the game as they are covered in red light and can be seen from a distance, they can still be distinguished from ordinary creatures at a glance.
First of all, elite creatures are slightly larger than ordinary creatures of the same species.
Secondly, elite creatures usually have more colorful body colors and more fierce personalities, and are usually the leaders of the community.
The lone raptor in front of me looks like an elite creature with obvious stature.
Li Xiao has killed several elite-level raptors. Don't expect any rewards for the first kill, but after all, they are elite-level creatures. It is more than enough to get some experience points.
While he was talking, Li Xiao had already taken out his legendary long-barreled rifle and shot at the elite raptor coming across the water!
The powerful kinetic energy of the bullet instantly tore the velociraptor's flesh and blood into pieces, blasting a big hole in its chest!
The Velociraptor's body was suddenly overturned in the water. Amidst the painful screams, the Velociraptor could not maintain its swimming state and gradually sank into the water!
It struggled desperately, trying to get its choked head out of the water, but the next second, another bullet flew towards it!
The velociraptor's head exploded and its screams stopped abruptly!
The corpse slowly sank into the water, and the blood slowly dyed the surrounding river red. At this time, the elite raptor had not even crossed half of the river.
The river was turbulent, and it looked like the piranhas in the water were eating their flesh and blood...
Putting away his weapon, Li Xiao didn't even look into the river -
I thought that an elite raptor could make his life worse than death, but now the situation has changed, and he is no longer that weak player!
After spending another half day hunting around, plus the experience points gained from making a motorcycle raft, Li Xiao successfully reached level 62 and unlocked the much-needed tranquilizer dart.
Also unlocked at the same time is the saddle of the Argentine giant eagle - I have to say that this saddle was unlocked a bit late. Not to mention the red-haired giant eagle, even the "little red-haired" who was originally an egg is about to reach adulthood.
However, Li Xiao can finally "ride" the eagle!
Put the made saddle on the red-haired giant eagle. This giant eagle has always been a combat pet, and from now on it can also be used as a working pet.
The giant eagle has a very high load-bearing capacity, and can capture creatures such as Ankylosaurus and Star-Tailed Beasts and fly long distances. From now on, Li Xiao no longer has to make a big show of leading a large group of load-bearing creatures up the mountain to mine.
Let the giant eagle fly back and forth several times, and the efficiency will increase by more than ten times!
In the future, you can tame a few more giant eagles to form an air transport team. In that case, you no longer have to worry about resource issues.
Putting the matter of taming the giant eagle aside for now, Li Xiao's plan now is to tame a few giant ground sloths.
After making enough tranquilizer darts and wearing thick fur suits, Li Xiao and Zhou Qing rode the ancient gods and headed straight for the northwest ice field.
…
Flying over the river in the west of the volcanic crater, the two quickly entered the ice sheet area.
The Northwest Icefield is freezing cold and frozen for thousands of miles!
The first thing that catches the eye is the tall ice-toothed peaks - tall peaks that cover the sky and reach into the sky, blocking all the cold wind blowing from the northwest.
Fortunately, there is this mountain peak blocking it, otherwise the volcanic crater in the north would have looked like an ice sheet.
Although the eastern slope of Bingtooth Mountain is covered with frost and snow, it can only be regarded as the edge area of the ice sheet, and the temperature is not as cold as the depth of the ice sheet. Li Xiao, Zhou Qing, and others flew slowly and slowly at low altitude, looking for traces of the giant ground sloth in this area.
Before going out, Li Xiao prepared two travel plans:
One is to ride the Dudu Tyrannosaurus Rex Alarm Clock, take the combat creatures on land, cross the river and enter the ice field.
The second is that he and Zhou Qing rode the ancient god pterosaur together and walked lightly in the air.
After thinking for a while, Li Xiao quickly ruled out the idea of going on land. After all, the place he was going to was a dangerous ice field. There were dangerous creatures everywhere there, and there were even guys like Yutyrannosaurus with more power than an alarm clock. It was just too unsafe.
Already.
It is still flying lightly and has high maneuverability.
Li Xiao was already prepared for a protracted war—the giant ground sloth was rare in number and was a solitary creature, so it was definitely not common.
However, the vegetation in the ice field area is sparse. Looking down from mid-air, you can see all the creatures on the surface at a glance, which actually reduces the player's time.
After searching for a whole morning, I walked around the plain area under Bingya Mountain——
A lot of creatures were found, direwolves, ferrets, etc. were all over the place, mammoths, woolly rhinos, etc. were also very common, and even two Tyrannosaurus rex were found.
Unfortunately, there is no trace of the giant ground sloth.
The two of them turned their attention to Bingtooth Mountain - there are not many kinds of creatures on Bingtooth Mountain, because the entire mountain peak, from the mountainside to the top of the mountain, is shrouded in twos and threes of giant eagles!
On Icetooth Mountain, there are several huge colonies of Argentine giant eagles!
It is no exaggeration to call it "Giant Eagle Mountain"!
Now Li Xiao has two choices -
Look for giant ground sloths at the base of Icetooth Mountain;
Or you can bypass the Bingtooth Mountain and go directly into the ice field to look for giant ground sloths.
The two options have different risks. In terms of risk, there is a giant eagle on Bingtooth Mountain, which is more dangerous.
But the danger is controllable. The ancient god pterosaur flies much faster than the giant eagle. Even if it is discovered by the giant eagle, they cannot catch up.
But if you go around the mountain and go deep into the ice field, you can definitely find the giant ground sloth, but it will take a lot of time...
"How to choose?"
In their small team, Li Xiao has always made the decision, but this time he asked Zhou Qing first.
"Then... let's go around the mountain. At least it's safer."
"Okay, then let's go deep into the ice field." After making the decision, the two of them immediately increased their altitude.
Without the protection of the mountain peaks, the wind in the sky was extremely strong, and the biting cold wind was like an ice knife, cutting hard on their exposed faces!
Even the ancient god pterosaur's movements at this moment were a bit stiff due to the cold.
The cold temperatures in the Northwest Icefield are not suitable for riding and flying...
The higher the altitude, the lower the temperature and the stronger the wind. Don't even think about flying directly over the top of the mountain. At that altitude, the two people and the Ancient God Pterodactyl froze to death before they could fly over.
Just fold it and fly over from the mountainside.
Li Xiao, who was moving forward against the cold wind and constantly pulling on the reins, suddenly saw Zhou Qing pointing downwards——
Looking in the direction he was pointing, Li Xiao's face, which was pale from the cold, suddenly turned black!
At the entrance of a cave halfway up the mountain, a giant ground sloth was raising its head, looking curiously at the two people and one dragon who were struggling to move forward against the wind...
