Suldak, Charlie and Luke were hiding behind a stalagmite. Among the rocks a hundred meters away from the three of them, two eight-meter-long salamanders were lying on the volcanic ash to bask in the sun.
Many of the stalagmites were chewed to pieces by the two salamanders, and almost all of the sulfur ore contained in them was swallowed by the two adult salamanders.
Their fat bodies carry a strong aura of the fire element, and their mottled backs look like flames burning. A salamander is seen lazily crawling on the volcanic ash. Wherever it passes, its giant tail leaves behind it.
The next deep ravine.
Charlie retracted his head and sat down on the soft volcanic ash with his back against the stalagmites. He whispered to Suldak beside him: "They have been here for almost ten days. They eat almost every day and then bask in the sun."
, they will return to the lava river on the hillside to lurk at night. These big guys can actually hide their bodies in the lava. You said that we roasted and ate this big lizard on the way back. Now think about it.
It still feels a bit incredible when I wake up. It can take a bath in a magma pool. How could this salamander meat be cooked at that time..."
Surdak looked at the two salamanders, their bellies rounded out. He guessed that they had eaten a lot of sulfur ore in the rocky area in the past few days, so he smiled and said: "Kill these two salamanders and leave some meat for you."
, the best way is to eat grilled salamander meat again, I guess it will make you think of it again.”
Charlie's face was full of helplessness, and he said to Suldak: "Forget it, a piece of salamander meat as big as your fist can be exchanged for a bag of fine wheat flour, let's take it to Hellanza City and sell it! I can
I can't eat such expensive ingredients. If the old man knew about this, he would definitely scold me. Besides, why don't we leave so many meaty bones for us? It would be the same if stewed without them, or even better.
"
Turning around and scanning around, he found that there were piles of rocks here, which were not suitable for hunting salamanders. Suldak said to Charlie: "This is not suitable for a battlefield. Let's go over there and have a look."
The three of them ducked back from the hidden stalagmite and looked around the rocky area for a suitable place to hunt salamanders.
Although Surdak left Wall Village in a hurry this time, he came prepared.
After hunting the first salamander, Surdak thought about such a large volcanic area. Since salamanders appeared, it was inevitable that there would be a second and third salamander. For this reason, Surdak
When I was in Halanza City, I specifically asked someone for advice on how to hunt salamanders.
Although this second-level monster has primary intelligence, its intelligence is at most that of a six- or seven-year-old child. To deal with monsters of this level of intelligence, some traps can still be caught by them as long as they are not reused. An adult fire monster
The size of a lizard is at least seven or eight meters, and larger ones can even grow to about ten meters. Although the movements of such a huge body are still very fast, they are not that flexible when turning around.
Experienced hunters have designed barbed armor-piercing needles specifically for these large lizards and pythons. In order to allow these needles to easily penetrate the tough leather, the tips of the needles are polished extremely sharp.
This kind of stinging needles are specially arranged on the crawling routes of large lizards and pythons. They are arranged at an angle of 30 degrees along the crawling direction, and there are definitely not only one or two of these stinging needles, usually at least a hundred.
There are about ten needles. Once the lizards and pythons climb up, there will be nothing strange at first, but they cannot go back the same way, otherwise they will be penetrated by countless armor-piercing needles.
However, the disadvantages of using this kind of armor-piercing needle to set up traps are also very obvious. If the prey cannot be eliminated in time and is allowed to struggle wantonly, the worst result will be that it is difficult to save the high-grade leather, and it is likely to be pricked thousands of times by the needle.
It is full of holes. You must know that the leather on a monster is usually the most precious thing, and no experienced hunter will hunt in this way.
"Knight Suldak, come here and take a look..." Charlie's shout came from afar.
Surdak heard the sound and ran over. After just one glance, he made a decision. The place to hunt the salamander was found.
What appeared in front of me were two volcanic rocks close together. This big rock seemed to have been cut off with a sword. There was a long and narrow passage in the middle. The entrance was relatively loose, about two meters wide, but in addition
The exit at one end is relatively narrow, shaped like a trumpet, and the side walls of the boulder are high and steep. It would be difficult for the salamander to get in from the loose side, and it would be difficult to get out from the other side.
After looking at the solidity of this volcanic rock, I felt that it would be difficult to find a better hunting spot than this one. Suldak took out bundles of black iron needles from his magic waist bag. What's going on here in the sulfur mine?
There was a shortage of all, but there was no shortage of masons. Charlie casually called a few young masons. Following the instructions of Knight Suldak, everyone worked hard to dig countless sloping holes into the two big rocks, and then
Surdak then inserted these needles into these sockets.
The color of the pitch-black rocks is almost the same as that of the needles, and the crack between the rocks is in shadow. It is difficult to see clearly the needles lying on the rock wall without getting up close.
Just in front of these two rocks, there is a large flat area of soft volcanic ash ground, surrounded by messy rocks, and there is no river of lava for the salamanders to escape.
Suldak inserted these stinging needles into the stone wall and said to Charlie beside him: "We have to find a way to lure the two big guys out. It is best to separate them. If the two salamanders get together,
, the difficulty of hunting will be.”
"Leave it to me. I'll lure a salamander away on horseback. I'll take it in circles around the rocky area. When you take care of the first one, send me a signal. Then I'll lure it here.
Come on over." Luke patted the alloy bow in his hand and said first.
He has the best riding skills among these young people, and he is also an experienced young hunter. After hearing that he took the initiative to take on this dangerous task, Surdak patted him on the shoulder and said, "Then be careful.
.”
"Val, follow Luke. If Luke is in danger, lead the salamander away." Charlie thought for a moment and shouted to Val behind him.
"Oh, okay!" Val agreed without hesitation.
It was almost noon when everything was arranged here, and finally everyone raised the volcanic ash on the ground to eliminate the footprints on the ground.
Surdak took the lead in riding the ancient Bolai horse, and young people such as Charlie, Luke, and Val mounted the horses respectively. These young people had hunted the first salamander with Surdak before, although they were not the same.
Don't have much hunting experience, but better than others.
And the facts have also verified that these young people are very brave. When fighting the salamanders, no one gave up even if they encountered some dangers.
The horses were wearing thick masks, making it difficult to breathe and unable to run at full speed.
But even at a canter, the horse's speed is faster than the salamander running at full speed.
There are always people staring at the two salamanders, and it’s okay not to keep an eye on them. There are more than thirty craftsmen scattered in the rocky area collecting sulfur ore, and it is impossible for everyone to always observe the movements of the salamanders.
Someone is responsible for keeping an eye on the salamanders. No matter where they wander, they will notify the masons collecting rocks in that area in advance and ask them to retreat in advance.
Although a lot of sulfur ore will be lost in this way, it can ensure everyone's safety to the greatest extent.
…
After the traps here were set up, Surdak led a few young people to find the two salamanders again in the rocky area. He saw them opening their bloody mouths, which were filled with fine and sharp teeth.
Biting on a stalagmite with sulfur ore, the huge head broke the stalagmite with just a flick of the head. Then, just like chewing a crispy radish, the giant mouth chewed a few times and swallowed the stalagmite together with the sulfur ore.
Go down.
Every time he swallowed some sulfur ore, a new flame would ignite on the salamander's back. The two salamanders seemed to enjoy this process.
Looking from a distance, the two salamanders looked lazy, and any movement was slow. Surdak and Charlie looked at each other. This time, Surdak drove his horse closer to the salamanders. He was in the distance.
The salamander stopped sixty meters away and took out an alloy bow from his arms. Under the vigilant eyes of the two salamanders, he blatantly aimed at one of them.
‘Whoosh’
An arrow came out of the string and turned into a white light directly into the eye socket of one of the salamanders. The salamander that was eating the sulfur mine did not expect that the damn human dared to shoot, as if its dignity had been provoked.
, the two salamanders let out a low roar at the same moment, and the two adult salamanders turned around and moved their six short legs towards Surdak.
Surdak calmly shot another arrow at the salamander that was hit by the arrow earlier. The accuracy of this arrow was pretty good, and it directly hit the forehead of the salamander running in front. This kind of ordinary feather arrow
If it can be shot onto the salamander without falling off immediately, it means it is sharp enough.
Seeing the salamander rushing out more than 20 meters away, Suldak steadily put away the alloy bow and swung the whip in his hand to hit the horse's buttocks. The ancient Bolai horse neighed and spread its hooves.
Run towards the selected trap.
When the two salamanders passed by a rock, another arrow flew out from the slope and shot into the body of the other salamander.
This arrow did not nail the salamander like Surdak's two arrows did. The arrow failed to penetrate the tough skin of the salamander and fell halfway with a "clack". There was a sound from the distance.
Val yelled angrily: 'Fuck..., this salamander skin is really thick!'
The salamander ignored Val at all and continued to chase in the direction of Surdak.
Then another arrow flew out, and the arrow shot by Luke accurately hit the eyelid of the salamander. This completely angered the salamander, and it suddenly turned around like a train.
It let out a heavy roar and rushed towards Luke.
Luke was far less calm than Suldak. When he saw the Salamander chasing him, he turned around and fled without hesitation, running far away to the outskirts of the rocky area.
The round bellies and tails of the two salamanders left a deep groove in the volcanic ash. When they ran on the volcanic ash, the volcanic ash flew into the sky.
Surdak quickly led one of the salamanders to the location where the trap was set. He stopped in front of the stone crevice and fired an arrow at the salamander with his fully loaded alloy bow. The salamander also spurted out not to be outdone.
A fire bomb hit Surdak. At this time, Surdak was well prepared and slipped into the stone crevice. The salamander saw that the entrance to the stone crevice was about two meters wide, so it followed suit.
Surdak dove in.
The salamander only felt that the further it went, the narrower the passage ahead. When it realized that it could not get out of the road ahead, its huge body was completely stuck in the cracks in the rocks.
Surdak, who was riding out on horseback, had already stopped. He jumped off his horse and jumped directly onto the black rock.
The salamander immediately sensed the danger. It gathered the fire element in its belly without hesitation and sprayed out a stream of flames towards Surdak. The flames brushed across Surdak's back, and Surdak was in danger.
And narrowly avoided the flames.
At this time, the salamander had realized that it was in danger. It watched Suldak fly up to the volcanic rocks above its head, and wanted to get out of the cracks in the rocks. Unfortunately, its round body was stuck in the cracks and could not get out at all.
After going out, the helpless salamander thought about going back along the original path. Its six short legs kicked hard on the rock walls on both sides at the same time. The body of the salamander only moved back less than a foot, and the sharp weapon stabbed
The sound of the tough leather being torn was heard constantly.
I don’t know how many stingers pierced the body of the salamander. The next second, the salamander let out a shrill roar. Its body trembled violently in the cracks of the stone, almost shaking the two huge rocks. Surda
Katsuya didn't want to give the salamander any chance to escape.
He stood on the top of a rock more than seven meters high, holding the Roman sword with many gaps in his hand. The Roman sword glowed with a faint golden light. Surdak jumped directly into the crack from above.
In the middle, he stepped firmly on the flaming back of the salamander, and the Roman sword in his hand was inserted into the spinal joint of the back of the salamander's head.
Then, under the huge shock of the salamander's body, the Roman sword was like a saw, cutting off the head of the salamander.
This salamander had its mouth open for a while, and the flames spurting out of its mouth were not extinguished for a long time. Its meaty tail hit the rock wall, and in just a few blows, the rock wall was blown into pieces. Now, now
The body of the decapitated salamander was just twitching violently in the crevices of the rocks, and bright red blood flowed all over the ground. However, the ground was covered with volcanic ash, and the blood was quickly absorbed by the dry volcanic ash, forming a large layer of blood on the ground.
