Chapter 465: Giant Marsh Crocodile
Ye Cang and the others crossed the mossy stone bridge and arrived at the cave on the other side. Inside, there were marsh shrubs everywhere. The tunnel gradually became more and more spacious. On the left, they saw a path going up along the wall, while in front, the tunnel continued to expand.
“Let’s go up on the left first. We can look down from there too. It’s too dangerous to just go straight in.” NalanPureSoul proposed.
Ye Cang brought everyone to the cliffside path. It lead to a steep precipice covered in shrubs.
Ye Cang saw a red bush ahead of them. Even its branches were a fiery red. It had fruits that looked like they were boiling inside. He identified it.
Flame Berries (Super Rare – Ingredient): An uncommon ingredient with extremely harsh growth conditions. Consume to gain a permanent +1 to all attributes, +10 fire resistance and a chance to learn a fire spell.
Ye Cang directly took the entire plant. Then he pushed aside some shrubs to have a look down the cliff. In the darkness, the first thing he noticed was a marshy pool. It was at least a hundred meters across. All around the pool were giant marsh crocodiles, but Ye Cang cared more about that pool of water. There was clearly something in there. He turned his head and saw Zhang ZhengXiong mining the exposed ores. Their luck was pretty good, getting a bunch of mithril.
Ye Cang reported the situation at the bottom in detail. Everyone pondered over it. If they were to disturb that sort of area, practically all the crocodiles would be roused. There would inevitably be a group battle, but this quantity would be troublesome. It would be alright if they could divide them. The crocodiles had thick and hard skin; they are still vulnerable to fire, but not as much as the toads.
Zhang ZhengXiong was indifferent about it. However, many came, they will all be killed. If worse comes to worst, they could just escape. He turned and saw Weak Sauce training his tadpole and the little phoenix to dance and cheer; it even had a serious look as it led its cheering squad.
“It would be better if I pull. First, we’ll block the path with molotovs. Once they get through the fire, follow up with acid and glue flasks. We should be able to deal with it ike that.” Ye Cang looked to Lin Le who nodded.
Little Ye Tian added, “Let’s go down. Although we have the height advantage here, if they manage to break through and the boss comes as well, we’ll have no room to retreat…”
NalanPureSoul also thought the same. He wanted to mention it, but heard Little Ye Tian say it first. As expected of the child prodigy who could counter MistyVeil. He followed everyone back to the tunnel.
Ye Cang made his way over. While walking, he didn’t forget to snatch the fruits and herbs from all the plants. Watching him made everyone feel ashamed. He kept an eye out for any activity with Eagle Eye and slowly approached. Instantly locking onto 20 targets, he activated Anya’s Berserk Shot. The hail of bullets attracted every crocodile in range. While they were still looking around curiously, his Explosive Shot hit right in the middle of the pool, creating a splash of water. After the splash, a nearly 16 meter long crocodile charged out.
Ye Cang broke out in cold sweat, then immediately shouted, “The crocodiles and the crocodile boss are all coming!! Everyone be careful!!”
NalanPureSoul’s chest tightened. Such a terrible pull, but it’s not unwinnable! These guys should have many trumps!
The moment Ye Cang returned, Lin Le threw molotovs to the ground, and after the sea of fire, he threw the speed reducing glue vials. He held the acid vials back, ready to use at any time.
