Steven exclaimed in surprise: "Oh my God! Kate! I can't believe it! This is so shocking! I'm so happy for you! Oh, congratulations! Kate, you have become the legendary Elemental Awakener
!Since the elemental tide was discovered and studied by scholars on the mainland, mysterious elemental awakeners and controllers have only appeared in legends! And just today! I witnessed one! This is simply worth celebrating.
.....”
Kate couldn't help but interrupt: "Okay, Steven! If you want to celebrate, you have to wait until you get back! Now you have to clean up the mess here! Do you want to continue to be happy standing in this smelly flesh and blood?"
Steven slowly calmed down, but he was obviously in a good mood. He looked at the broken body on the ground and the pool of blood below and said: "I'm afraid the flesh and blood of this monster is poisonous. The smell is too unpleasant. Even if it's not poisonous, I would
I don’t want to eat it! But first we have to see what the back of its body looks like!”
After speaking, Steven took a few steps back, then rushed towards the cliff. He stepped on the cliff with both feet and rushed upward. With the last push, he grabbed the branch outside the monster's hiding place with both hands, and then
He held his belly and jumped into the bushes where the monster was hiding.
At this time, he saw the back part of the monster's body. Behind the trees was a hole that was as tall as a person. There was a strange thing lying on the side wall of the hole: the body that rolled up Kate just now was not actually a monster.
It can only be said that it is a tentacle. The uncut part is connected to a flat mass of flesh, like a four-cornered starfish. The tentacle grows from the central top of the "starfish".
The four corners of the "starfish" are four stubby claws. They are firmly attached to the rock cave wall and did not fall down until they died. This "starfish" is very huge, and its body height is basically half the height of that person.
The openings are similar and the widths are almost the same.
At this time, Kate was arranging her clothes on the ground. He was wringing out the blood on his clothes in frustration. The clothes on his chest, front and back were pierced by the spikes of the monster's suction cups, but his body was not harmed in any way.
.
At this time, Steven poked his head out from the trees on the cliff and shouted: "Kate, come up and see this monster. I have never seen anything like this in any book!" After that, Steven stretched out a hand.
With one hand, Kate imitated the way Steven jumped up the cliff just now, rushed up to hold Steven's hand and used his strength to jump into the bushes. When he saw the monster's body, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in surprise.
They carefully observed the monster's body: its body surface was covered with scales like its tentacles, including the claws that clung to the rock.
Steven and Kate spent a lot of effort with hand axes and machetes to cut off the two claws and break open the flat body. The two claws on the other side were still firmly grasped on the rock, making the monster as wide and thick as a fan.
The door panel was turned by the two of them.
The bottom of the monster is brown with some dark purple star-shaped markings. In the center is a round mouthpart with smooth edges. There is a lot of mucus dripping from the mouthpart, exuding a fishy smell.
In the middle is a slightly protruding round tube-shaped thing that fits the edge. This tube-shaped thing should be the monster's mouth.
The inner wall of the tube is densely packed with tiny sharp teeth, which extend to an invisible place inside. It seems that the tube-shaped mouth can extend the mouthparts to a certain length to facilitate the monster to eat. This is just the monster that attacked Kate just now, and is bigger than the monster that first attacked the male.
The deer's one was smaller, and its tentacles were also smaller. Steven and Kate walked into the hole and reached the bottom after a few meters. It was filled with animal skins and bones, and there were no other valuable discoveries.
Then the two came to the big monster's lair. Steven pulled out the hand ax stuck in the monster's body. The hand ax had been deeply embedded in the monster's body, leaving only a short wooden handle exposed.
outside.
There was also a hole as high as a person next to the monster. The deer was thrown into the hole. There were dense holes on its body, and some black mucus was flowing out of it. After looking at it, the two gave up. The deer was obviously
He died of poisoning. The meat must not be eaten.
Kate said: "The meat of this monster cannot be eaten. We can only see if there are other harvests from it... I think the skin on its tentacles should be useful!" Steven replied: "This monster's tentacles
The scales and skin on it are very tough, Kate, we can peel it off and take it back to make two leather chest protectors, so that we can use it when we explore the ruins after the rainy season!"
"This is a good idea! Steven, let's peel off this big one." The two of them cut off the half-broken tentacle. After a lot of work, they carried a rolled-up piece of tentacle.
The long leather rolls walked out of the canyon one after another.
It was completely dark when they returned to the camp. After taking a shower, the two of them were busy making a hearty dinner.
Steven said happily while chewing roasted wild boar: "Dear Kate! If there is wine, I will definitely have a drink with you to celebrate... Please forgive me for not paying attention to table manners today.
...Now I have to regard this cup of tea as wine! Can you tell me what happened at that time? You were in a very critical situation at that time. What inspired you? You suddenly became an elemental awakener.
?”
Kate and Steven clinked their teacups, took a sip and said, "I don't know very well, Steven. When I was just wrapped by that monster, I suddenly felt very hot all over my body. When it wrapped me
When I was in the air, I felt like I was going to die from the heat! At that time, I didn't care about the monster's tentacles and suction cups, and then suddenly there seemed to be something in my mind... like
The bottle filled with ice water was broken! A very refreshing feeling came from the head to the feet. How did the monster stop and be chopped off by you? I didn't notice it at all at the time. I was just immersed in that feeling.
I didn't wake up until it fell to the ground."
Steven said happily: "I have to congratulate you again, Kate! It seems that you have awakened the ability of the ice element, so when the monster rolled you up in the air, you activated the ice element ability and pushed it
It's frozen! If it hadn't been like this, I wouldn't have been able to cut off its tentacles!"
Kate said: "Yes, I should indeed awaken the power of the ice element. Since the discovery of elemental tides more than 60 years ago, the scholars on the mainland have been studying non-stop, but they have not come up with any breakthroughs so far.
The result! So until now, colleges on the mainland have not been able to offer this course."
Steven continued: "It's normal that those scholars can't come up with any major results. The elemental tides, elemental awakeners, and elemental controllers have always been the most mysterious things in the world. What's more, they appeared very late. Scholars
It hasn’t been that long to study it carefully! Although the Church of Radiance has always claimed that the elemental tide is the Holy Lord’s gift to the world, I feel that as time goes by and the research deepens, there will definitely be an objective result!”
