Chapter 27 The Glittering Pot and the Flying Mantis
"But our bodies are soaked again..." Zhao Chen paused and said helplessly.
The naughty panda thought for a moment, then turned around and communicated with the swamp kings with a pitiful expression.
The Swamp Kings nodded, turned around and swam out, and when they came back, each Swamp King had a bunch of branches and leaves in its mouth.
It's just... those branches are already soaked...
"Naughty..." The naughty panda showed a sad expression. Its fur was soaked with water and it made it feel very uncomfortable.
Zhao Chen put down his backpack and was thinking about kidnapping a fire elf to light a fire for them. On his way there just now, he saw a small fire monkey and a warm pig nearby.
But in the end he gave up the idea.
The group of swamp kings took the people to the place and left one after another. Suddenly, only Zhao Chen and the naughty panda were left in the water curtain cave.
After taking a short rest, he took the naughty panda and swam out of the river against the mountain wall. Next, he had to familiarize himself with the nearby conditions and types of elves to prepare for the next survival.
Perhaps because it is close to the water source, there are many fruit trees growing here, and most of the fruits they bear are peach and orange fruits.
Zhao Chen only picked a few as a precaution. Although the fruit is good, it cannot be used as food.
Just as the naughty panda climbed up the tree to pick fruits, a bunch of milky white nets shot out from the bushes and hit the naughty panda directly in the face, causing him to fall directly from the tree.
Fortunately, Zhao Chen reacted quickly enough to catch it.
"Stubborn!"
The naughty panda angrily pulled the net off his face and yelled twice at the tree.
Zhao Chen raised his head and saw a pink turtle-like elf with a red shell on its back poking its head out of the bushes.
That's...a kettle!
Sparkle Kettle!
Seeing Zhao Chen and the naughty panda staring at it, Huhu was startled and quickly retreated into the bushes, disappearing.
"Naughty!" The naughty panda scratched his head in confusion when he saw this.
Zhao Chen did not stay here any longer and turned around to head to the next area.
Although the little elf like Huhu is not very powerful in attack, it possesses abnormal physical defense and special defense abilities. After the attack and defense are converted, its output ability will far exceed that of ordinary elf.
Moreover, its shell can also brew tree juice that has the effect of restoring physical strength. For a new trainer who is "good at playing", Kehu is a quite good choice.
The elven ecosystem near this area is also quite rich. Zhao Chen also saw a Nidoran flirting with Nidoran, and in the grass by the river, there was also a silly little elf named Koda duck basking in the sun.
"Stubborn!"
The naughty panda barked twice and pointed forward. Zhao Chen looked in the direction it pointed and saw a tree with a green fruit.
That kind of tree fruit... is a relatively rare sand scale fruit!
As far as Zhao Chen knows, eating this kind of fruit will increase the speed of the elf.
As for whether the effect is true or false, you will only know after trying it.
Thinking about it, Zhao Chen was about to step forward and pick a few. However, before he reached the fruit tree, a green figure flashed past and blocked the sand scale fruit tree.
It was a flying mantis, with a cold light shining on its scythe, staring unkindly at Zhao Chen and the naughty panda.
A trumpet bud in the surrounding grass saw this scene and ran away in panic.
"I'll just pick one." Zhao Chen looked at the flying mantis and said, this kind of fruit is very rare, and he wanted to get one for the naughty panda.
The Flying Mantis looked at him coldly. It was obvious that it did not agree with Zhao Chen's request.
"Naughty Panda, get ready to fight!"
Zhao Chen didn't waste any time and immediately ordered: "Cut with bare hands!"
The naughty panda jumped up, a white light burst out of his hand, and struck directly at the flying mantis.
However, it was lightly dodged by the flying mantis. Its green figure flickered among the trees, leaving behind a trail of afterimages. Zhao Chen was dazzled by what he saw. It was... moving at high speed!
The naughty panda dare not be careless. The forest is home to the flying mantis. However, this flying mantis obviously lacks combat experience. Its carapace is bright green. It is obvious that it is a young flying mantis.
This was also the reason why Zhao Chen decided to fight it. If he encountered that kind of dark green flying mantis, he would just run away instead of staying here to bargain with it.
"Whoosh!"
The flying mantis suddenly rushed towards the naughty panda, and a burst of white light flashed on its scythe. That move was a combo!
"Jump up, Flame Fist!" Zhao Chen ordered calmly.
The naughty panda's prediction ability has become extraordinary after being trained with a big pendulum. The moment before the flying mantis rushed over, it jumped up high and then fell straight down. A sheet of flames burst out of its hands and hit the flying mantis with a bang.
on the wings.
The flying mantis let out a scream. Because its wings were damaged, it fell directly to the ground and could not fly.
The naughty panda jumped on it, and without saying a word, he punched and crushed it with a series of punches, knocking the flying mantis unconscious.
"Are you convinced?" Zhao Chen stepped forward and said solemnly: "Now, I'm going to pick six sand scale fruits!"
The flying mantis glanced at him unwillingly, then closed his eyes and lay on the ground in despair.
Zhao Chen ignored it and let the naughty panda climb up the tree and pick off five sand scale fruits. There were only ten in total on the tree. He decided to leave half of it for the flying mantis.
After packing the sand scale fruit, Zhao Chen walked to the Flying Mantis, took out the healing spray from his backpack and sprayed it on its wounds. Then he took out the berry fruit, crushed it, and applied the juice to the Flying Mantis's face.
On both wings, treat burns.
There was a strange look in the eyes of the flying mantis, and it tilted its head and looked at this human curiously.
I just beat myself up, and now I'm treating myself... Is this human being brain-damaged?
However, Zhao Chen thought very simply. He treated the flying mantis just because he did not want to see the flying mantis being attacked by other elves and then die because it was injured and unable to fly.
Then he will feel guilty inside.
After helping it take care of its wounds, Zhao Chen led the naughty panda towards the next area. The flying mantis stood up from the ground and looked at his leaving figure with confusion, not knowing what he was thinking.
…
After passing through a bush, Zhao Chen finally found the target of his trip, which was a young fireball rat.
Originally, he just wanted to find a small fire monkey or a warm pig to light a fire, but unexpectedly he met a more convenient fire ball rat.
"Hi!"
Zhao Chen stepped forward with a smile and showed his kindness to the fireball rat. The fireball rat raised its head and looked at the human with doubts in its eyes.
"Naughty..." The naughty panda took the initiative to communicate with it. However, at this moment, Zhao Chen suddenly felt a wave of heat coming towards his face, and he subconsciously performed a tactical roll.
A jet of flame passed between him and the naughty panda, knocking down a big tree behind him and causing a large wave.
