After removing the minotaur's tongue, El exclaimed that he had really struck gold this time.
This minotaur seems to be even bigger than the last one.
"A bigger one means more meat, which means I can eat more."
Thank you to the Tauren for the food supply; I will record your contribution in my recipes.
(Minotaur: Isn't that a bit unnecessary?)
Having made a good haul, El was about to send the minotaur back when he sensed some movement.
"call……"
Something is approaching, quite fast, and it sounds like it's flapping its wings.
"Vampires? That can't be right. Judging from their voices, there seems to be more than one, and they hardly pose any threat to me..."
Was it because his beating of the minotaur was too loud that some other monster noticed him?
While blurring his presence with water mist, El prepared to unleash his strongest power.
Although a sneak attack is not honorable, it works, and that's enough. As long as he becomes the one who wins in the end, nothing else matters.
"call……"
Approaching, passing through the woods, El finally saw the true faces of these guys.
"A gray exterior, an overly angular body, sharp teeth, wings on its back..."
"That thing is a gargoyle, a vampire's follower monster. It's said that when resting or hunting, it can transform into a flawless stone statue."
The benefits of reading more books were once again demonstrated. El immediately recognized the visitor's identity: a monster, a gargoyle.
In the hierarchy of monsters, she holds a similar position to the minotaurs, but each has its own advantages.
Putting everything else aside, the pair of wings on its back give it the ability to fly, allowing the gargoyle to kill the minotaur through attrition warfare and skillful movement.
There's no way around it; just like a certain precipice-like sword, most monsters can't fly.
“This is not a problem for me. Magic can lift me into the air, and my simple jumping is enough to reach them.”
Then, a new question popped into his mind.
Gargoyles, as the name suggests, are made entirely of stone-like material. Are there any parts of this thing that are edible, and how do you make them?
"Tauren...death...torture...enemies..."
Three gargoyles are gathered near the minotaur's corpse, searching for any potential enemies.
Their master, the vampire in that castle, is still on the resurrection process; rising from the coffin now is not in the best condition.
The job of gargoyles is to act as protectors and eliminate potential threats.
They had already figured it out; the minotaur appeared to have died from some kind of powerful blunt weapon strike, suggesting that there might be a skilled human here.
Maintaining flight mode, the three gargoyles did not scatter, but instead gathered together to observe their surroundings.
"They're smart enough to know that splitting up at this point could mean being picked off one by one."
However, it's pointless. All your efforts are in vain; I don't need to defeat you one by one.
With a strong affinity for water elements, El easily gathered multiple water blades and launched an attack on the gargoyle in front of him.
"Whoosh..."
"Hmm? Something's not right?"
Because of its speed and the element of surprise, the Water Blade hit its target just like before, but the effect it produced was not quite what El had expected.
The gargoyles were only repelled by the water blades, which affected their flight paths, leaving only faint white marks on their bodies.
He's injured, but not seriously.
"The magic was interfered with. Is this what they call magic resistance?"
