Chapter 38 Tar

insect?

Corpse?

The parasites in the Mole King's body previously gathered in the river water, biting the hand of the dead river.

In addition, there are many low-level monsters with different shapes. Some of them have mutilated bodies. They were already dying in the dead river. At this moment, they seemed to be summoned by some kind and gathered around the spider demon like crazy.

Constantly attacking the Hands of the Dead River with their fangs and claws,

"Brand?" Horn saw the marks engraved on all the monsters who helped him, and suddenly thought of the ability he had acquired before [Dream Brand],

It turns out that this is what it means to be able to control branded creatures.

There is help,

This uncle is saved.

Horn ordered: "Help me!!"

A simple and unpretentious command, full of sincere emotions.

Some low-level monsters that had been imprisoned in the Dead River regained consciousness. They came from all directions in the river, lay on the back of the spider demon, and kept biting the hands of the Dead River.

Horn felt the confinement on his body getting lighter and easier, and it didn't take long before he successfully broke free and resurfaced.

"What are you looking at, skull!"

"I didn't expect this uncle to be able to do this. The offensive and defensive momentum is different. Go to hell."

The spider demon looked at the skeleton knight,

The Skeleton Knight looked at the Spider Demon in surprise,

Nine eyes facing each other,

Horn's thoughts prompted countless low-level monsters in the river to turn and rush towards the skeleton knight.

The black monsters surrounded the Skeleton Knight. They swarmed up and turned into smoke the moment they touched the Skeleton Knight.

"" Horn shouted excitedly: "Don't be afraid of strong enemies! Victory belongs to the weak! All the weak in the Dead River, unite and kill the skeleton knight! I am with you."

More low-level monsters rushed towards the skeleton.

The high-level monsters are still fused with the Dead River like puppets. Horn can't control them, probably because the level of [Dream Brand] is relatively low.

Endless monsters continue to charge,

Uncle Horn slipped away quietly,

No matter how many low-level monsters there were, the Skeleton Knight was not enough to kill him. He had to take advantage of this time to run away. He ran up the river bank and turned around to see the skeleton entangled in a sea of ​​monsters.

I thought it would be safe now,

Unexpectedly, a horse neighed,

The skeleton knight rode his war horse and rushed out of the monster pile. Wherever he went, all the monster areas he touched were turned into ashes.

"Calm down! Don't come over here. Communication is the key to solving problems,"

"Now, Floating Cannon!!"

Horn yelled while running, using his abilities to prevent the knight from approaching. The [Swift] effect was increased to the maximum. He did not expect these weird skeletons to be able to leave the Dead River. He thought there were site restrictions.

As a result, the other party did not, but his [Dream Brand] had a range of use.

If you are within a certain range away from the Dead River and lack the branded creatures, the Dream Brand will lose its effect, and the low-level monsters in the Dead River will return to their demented appearance and merge into the river water.

The little spider keeps running away,

Running all day long,

The skeleton knight behind him persisted. At first he would shoot the spider demon with a bow and arrow, but when he saw that the brand was ineffective, he drew his dagger and galloped on his horse. It looked like he was going to give the spider demon a sharp blow when he caught up.

Horn ran through the grassland of the underground maze with the Skeleton Knight. Wherever the horse's hooves passed, the flowers and grass turned black. Walking through the forest, the trees that felt the gray mist of the Skeleton Knight suddenly had leaves that withered and turned yellow. The trunks shriveled and withered, and the horse's hooves stepped across a small stream. , the running water turned pitch black, and a monster's face struggled to rush out of the water.

Run, run, run,

Arriving at a crack in the ground,

The crack opened hundreds of meters wide and was bottomless, extending to both sides.

Horn used the spider silk to jump over easily,

The skeleton knight behind him jumped into the air, and his horse hooves stepped on the void and flew over.

"Have you made a mistake? Can you keep up with this?"

Horn was about to vomit, so tired that he vomited.

The escape continued. When he continued to run, he found that everything on the other side of the cliff had become very strange. Although the underground maze was like a new world, the sight in front of him was still eye-opening to Horn.

It was all scorched black,

The ground is covered with black asphalt, which is sticky and extremely thick. Almost no other monsters can be seen, only strange trees growing on the black asphalt land.

These trees have no leaves, only branches, and the trunks secrete a petroleum-like substance.

Faced with such a "tar-scoured" land,

Horn had no choice but to step into the black world resolutely.

The asphalt on the ground is sticky,

As soon as the feet stepped on it, they were immediately stuck. The black asphalt material on the ground seemed to be activated and squirmed as if it was alive.

There is more and more black asphalt on my feet,

Horn felt regretful and wanted to exit the tar land but it was already too late. The eight bladed limbs were covered in thick tar and he could not move at all.

Cry,

Cry,

Cry,

The sound of horse hooves behind me is getting closer and closer,

The Skeleton Knight has crossed the Grand Canyon and walked behind the Spider Demon.

Horn used all the last remaining attribute reserves in his body. After recovering a little bit of his physical strength, he used all his strength to try to pull his feet out of the tar material.

As a result, it didn't move at all.

"hey-hey."

Horn looked at the skeleton knight holding a small dagger behind him, laughed awkwardly, and said, "Brother, can you help me? I'm stuck."

The Skeleton Knight said nothing;

Of course,

Horn couldn't understand what he said,

The rot worms crawled on the knight's face, and there were a few water plants hanging from the eye sockets. Anyway, his expression was unfriendly.

"I admit that we did have some misunderstandings before, but we can talk it out." Horn secretly exerted his strength, still trying to get out of the tar, while talking to himself frantically.

The skeleton knight stretched out his withered and shriveled palm, with a rotten black spot on the palm, and several small octopus tentacles wriggled in the black spot on the palm.

Not good,

The situation is quite bad,

Horn was brewing his last struggle, ready to use all the venom and corrosive liquid to melt his legs, and then use spider silk to hang and escape. Just when he was ready to "cut off his arm",

the hand stretched out by the skeleton knight suddenly retracted,

the tar on the ground nearby was wriggling and gathering, piling up higher and higher in front of Horn, and then wriggling and changing, a huge ball of tar turned into the appearance of seven or eight venomous snakes.

Hiss, hiss, hiss

The tar snake spit out its tongue and warned the skeleton knight.

"Ah!!" The skeleton knight roared angrily at the group of tar snakes, and sat on his warhorse and neighed, raising his front hooves high to confront the charred snakes.

The two strange creatures were in a stalemate, neither of them gave in.

The skeleton knight tried to reach out and grab the spider demon several times, but was stopped by the tar snakes. The two sides looked tense and the battle was about to break out, but they always maintained the greatest degree of restraint in their anger.

After a few minutes of stalemate,

it seemed that the skeleton knight was tired, or for some other reason, he put the dagger back to his waist, sat on his warhorse and whistled at the charred snakes, and the skeleton knight turned into a ball of water mist and disappeared.
