Chapter 309 308. Yogorn
Seven steps away from the little man with gray hair, a long creature was approaching, and the weeds and lichens in its path made noise due to friction. Rustling sound.
The thing was dark brown in color and between four and five meters long. At first glance, it looked like a snake.
But Lan En's eyes narrowed slightly. He didn't think it was a snake, because he had dealt with something similar to this thing not long ago.
It still looks familiar now.
"That's a big centipede!"
Brain immediately knelt on the ground, pulled out two arrows from the quiver on his back, put one on the string, and bit the other horizontally in his mouth.
She said vaguely: "It's Yorgon!"
At this time, Geralt and Vesemir saw the monster in full view.
That thing has two rows of yellow legs with barbs, and its slender body is divided into segments by its carapace. It is much more dangerous than a snake!
The little man with mouse-grey hair retreated to the roots of a big tree, leaning against the roots and letting out a sad scream.
The bloodless and tearless arthropod kept making the sound of carapace friction, "whispering".
It raised its head from the grass, that was when it was using its own Unique organs detect temperature, humidity, and pheromones emitted by prey in the air.
"That boy! Don't move!"
Geralt shouted rudely, jumping up and down again, hoping to attract the monster's attention through the vibration of the ground. .
Vesemir's rosacea nose wrinkled, and he reached out to hold down Brain, who wanted to shoot the arrow directly.
In the incomprehensible eyes of the tree spirit, the old man shook his head: "Its chitinous carapace cannot resist steel, but the natural smoothness and curvature of the carapace are enough to deflect your arrow at this distance. Face to face. Liu Ya, that little man doesn’t have the carapace of an insect, nor the agility of a tree spirit!”
The giant centipede doesn’t want to care about the earth platform ten meters above. It is a cold and pragmatic monster. In their eyes, no matter how small the meat near the mouth is, it is more valuable than the meat ten meters away.
The two tentacles on its head were waving in the air to collect information. This action only took a moment to complete the positioning.
The little man was so panicked, his body temperature rose in panic, his breath was hot and moist, and there was 'fear' in his sweat. This was all too conspicuous.
The body of the insect monster, which the dryads called Yugorn, curled up into a ball, and the next moment it shot out like a fully charged spring!
The numerous bright yellow limbs reflect the light of the creature's carapace, swinging rhythmically like rows of oars.
Geralt stood on the edge of the high earth platform and looked down, feeling anxious like an ant on a hot pot.
This anxiety comes out of nowhere.
It’s just a dead person, even if it’s a little man, he’s just an unlucky little man who died in the monster’s mouth.
Geralt had seen so much that he was getting tired of it.
But today, he was inexplicably panicked, as if the little man underneath was very, very important to him.
“This is too high. There’s not even a buffer platform in the middle!”
Geralt retreated from the edge of the platform and immediately prepared to go further around to see if there was any other way. Let him jump down quickly.
A ten-meter-high platform! Even if he forced himself, [Quen] and [Alder] would break both of their legs even if they fired!
When the time comes, let alone saving that little man, he himself will die.
But before the panicked Geralt could turn around and run away, a big hand pushed him aside.
"Get out of the way."
It's Lan En.
The youngest demon hunter present was taking out the elegant long elf sword with a graceful arc and a gorgeous sword surface from his waist, making a pleasant sound of metal friction.
Walking straight towards the edge of the earth platform.
"Don't be stupid! There is a height difference of at least ten meters on this platform!"
Geralt, who was pushed away, didn't even have time to get angry. He loudly warned the young man not to be anxious. He lost his sense of control and started running, looking for a buffer platform to jump down to. Even though he was so anxious, he still didn't forget to remind Lan En to pay attention to his safety.
But in the next moment, the young demon hunter jumped off the ten-meter-high, unbuffered earth platform without any hesitation!
"Lan!"
"Child!"
Vesemir and Geralt screamed at the same time, and then ran to the edge of the platform to look down.
People like them, who wear armor all year round, know very well that a heavy armored soldier may lose his footing if he slips off a platform even more than one meter high!
Putting on the standard armor of the Bear School, he jumped straight down ten meters. Even a demon hunter's internal organs would be shattered!
When the two members of the Wolf School squeezed to the edge of the platform and looked down, Vesemir had even taken out a bottle of [Pure White Rafad] from his bag, ready to kill this impulsive young man first.
But when their vision was no longer blocked by the edge of the platform, they could see the scene underneath the platform.
“What the hell?!”
“The plague is above ! ”
The two experienced demon hunters once thought that they had never seen anything in their lives?
Today they discovered that they had never seen this scene before!
The lightness that Lan En showed during his fall was completely inconsistent with his body weight!
When he landed, it was not at all like what Vesemir and Geralt had expected, with a man in heavy armor hitting the ground hard and throwing up a puff of smoke.
On the contrary, when Lan En's feet touched the ground again, he just changed from an extremely stretched posture to a deep squat. This extremely simple unloading posture made the movement of his landing on the ground much louder than a pile of steel packages. The body is more like a hollow piece of wood.
This action completely subverted Geralt and Vesemir's cognition.
The two of them subconsciously held the wolf head pendant on their necks at the same time. But he was surprised to find that the equipment that could detect traces of magic looked like a fake.
Using [Light Body Technique], Lan En directly resisted the ten-meter fall. At this time, there was no time to worry about the surprise of the two demon hunters above.
That Yorgon's tentacles almost touched the little man's hair!
There was a "chang" sound, and the soles of the boots made a fierce but brief friction sound with the turf.
Lan En, who had just landed, started charging directly from a squatting position to relieve his force!
The unevenly grown grass on the ground was cut into a bevel by the Sword of the Lake Girl held diagonally at his side as he flew by.
Yugon couldn't ignore the movement except the meat around his mouth this time.
Because this movement does not mean that there are new pieces of meat in the distance, but that the threat is approaching!
It stupidly turned itself around and faced Lan En, who was rushing towards him.
This action undoubtedly increases its stress-bearing area.
"[Alder]!"
"Bang!"
An invisible shock wave, with evenly spreading force, just hit the big centipede away from the little man.
The chitin-carapace's body hit the trunk of a tree. The originally elastic carapace should have allowed Yogorn to rebound quickly after hitting the tree, reducing the time for imbalance.
But before the chitin carapace bounced two centimeters from the trunk.
"Pfft!"
Almost immediately following the impact, the twisted and sinuous body was nailed to the xylem by a clear sharp blade!
Without stopping, before Yugorn wanted to follow the blade and bite the attacker.
The sharp blade that pierced its body has begun to move upward without stopping!
The carapace, auxiliary limbs, and even the tree trunk behind were all neatly cut in half vertically with a 'stab' sound!
In the eyes of a small onlooker, the giant centipede's flesh and blood spurted out much more than normal for some unknown reason.
It almost turned into a regional ‘rain’.
