Chapter 43 Harvest
The anger and pain from the sneak attack caused the Level 4 mutant goat to quickly break free from the ice rune, but it was tied to the body of another goat.
Its movements were restricted, and just as it was about to open its mouth to call its companions, the second arrow accurately pierced its throat.
However, Yun Xiang seized the opportunity in a moment and easily killed him.
Yun put the mutant goat directly into the storage ring and wanted to continue ambush on the spot. After the first wave of reconnaissance sheep, there would be a second wave.
Soon the second wave arrived, there were 3 of them, 2 level 4 and one level 3. They were successfully dealt with after some effort using an ice charm and a trap cage.
This ice talisman is indeed an excellent choice for sneak attacks.
The Ice Charm evolved from the Ice Breaking Charm and can trap prey for 3 to 5 seconds. The higher the level of the prey, the shorter the duration.
Judging from the current situation, it can trap level 4 prey for a full three seconds, which is quite effective. Ice talismans are easy to make and have a high success rate, so Yun Xiang has a lot of them.
She also made an upgraded version of this talisman, the freezing talisman, which can trap prey for 8 to 10 seconds. It is an intermediate talisman and is complicated to make.
The success rate is currently very low. She spent a lot of materials to make more than a dozen pieces. She gave half of them to Xie Yu and kept the rest for use at a critical moment.
After Yun Xiang finished the third wave of sneak attacks, Jin Jiaren successfully reunited with her. The two of them decided to continue Yun Xiang's previous method of sneak attacks.
There was no way. Jin Jiaren's ability was fire-related, and it was very easy to cause a fire on the grassland. According to records in books, the fire of people with fire-related abilities was very powerful.
After reaching the high-level maximum level (SSS level), it can melt everything. Although the truth of this cannot be verified, it is enough to show how powerful it is.
Jin Jiaren is a mid-level psychic. It is not difficult for him to refine metals on a daily basis, let alone herbs.
In order to prevent being exposed too early, you can only endure it for now. Otherwise, you will be exposed as soon as you take action, and you will not be able to gain any benefits. Later actions will also be greatly hindered.
With Jin Jiamin's joining, Yun Xiang didn't even need the ice talisman. Jin Jiamin first lured out the goats, controlling the number to 4 to 5 at a time, and Yun Xiang attacked from a distance.
Then Jin Jiaren came up to finish off the enemy, and the two of them cooperated very well, killing three waves in one breath.
Perhaps the leader of the mutant goats noticed that the number of mutant goats was decreasing, so he began to change his strategy and move in groups, with the smallest group having 10 to 12 goats.
This time, Yun Xiang didn't have to lure out the mutant goat, and his trap finally came in handy.
Although the mutant goats have developed intelligence, they are still far behind humans, just like now.
No matter how they changed, their general direction was towards Bai Mingyang's team. It was because they were more numerous and made more noise.
Yun thought that as long as he ambushed the two of them behind the trap, he could catch them all in one fell swoop.
Because time was tight, Yun Xiang only placed hard wooden spikes, hoping that these spikes would achieve the best effect.
The goat must be made to jump, so that when it lands, it will be stuck deeper and more defenseless.
Yun Xiang immediately cast a freezing talisman, and thick ice instantly formed on the ground, freezing the mutant grass along with it. The herd of mutant goats were forced to retreat again and again.
At this time, the leader of the goats hiding in the group bleated twice, and the goats in the front began to walk tentatively on the ice.
After walking a few steps, I found that there was no danger except slipping. After walking a few more steps, the slipping became really severe, so I tried jumping.
When they found that the method was effective, they immediately reported it to the leader, and the entire group of mutant goats began jumping on the ice.
"Mee--" The mutant goat in the front row felt a thorn in the sole of its foot. It subconsciously kicked its hoof and spun around in place, trying to shake off the thorn. It kept making sharp cries with its mouth.
Immediately afterwards, the second row of mutant goats also jumped over. Because the front row was blocking the road, they jumped farther, stepped harder, and were stabbed more severely.
Yun Xiang was secretly proud of herself. She not only put a row of them, but a whole piece. It was worthwhile to recycle the scraps.
Although the mutant goats are good at jumping, they are also limited in distance. There are many mutant goats in the third wave, and they are stuck between the first and second waves, blocking the way. The flock of goats became panicked for a while.
The mutant goat leader was so angry that he used his horns to butt the goats around him, forcing them to rush over.
Unfortunately, the road ahead is blocked, and it is too difficult to break out by running.
Yun Xiang and Jin Jiamin first dealt with the goats that were running around unconsciously and rushed out, and then harvested the ones in the trap.
There were some that slipped through the net, so I just threw a clamp and quickly caught them in the trap, and half of them were cleared out.
The mutant goats were ready to move, and Yun wanted to stop them with arrows, while deliberately leaving a gap to lure the mutant goat leader into the trap.
The mutant goat leader saw an opportunity and led the flock forward, shouting and rushing forward even if he stepped on thorns.
Just when victory was in sight, a wall of fire suddenly appeared in front of them. The goats that were closest to it had their hair burned and rolled on the ground.
The neat team was disrupted again, and the goats that were not burned became frightened and began to run back.
Yun wanted to replace the wooden spikes early and wait for them to be caught again. After a lot of trouble, all of them, including the mutant goat leader, were trapped.
To prevent the goat from escaping, Jin Jiaren set a circle of fire around it. He wasn't worried about being exposed at this point. After all, if Bai Mingyang found out and rushed here, he would just have to clean up the battlefield.
The level 5 mutant goat leader was actually a fighting loser. He probably only had brains but no strength. He lay dead unwillingly after less than two minutes.
In any case, Yun thought this trip was worth it, as there were nearly fifty level 4 mutant beasts.
There were hundreds of Level 3 monsters, and of course, there was also a Level 5 scum. After finishing them off, the two of them quickly joined up with the team ahead.
However, they didn't walk long before they were stopped by a strong stench.
"Damn, what's going on?" Jin Jiaren put on his mask and couldn't help but curse.
Yun Xiang kicked the wolfsbane flowers at his feet. The further southwest he went, the larger the area of wolfsbane flowers became, and other mutant grasses were almost invisible.
Before it mutated, wolfsbane was the ominous grass of the grassland, because its appearance meant that the grassland was severely degraded.
It seems that not much has changed since the mutation. They haven't found any traces of large mutant animals along the way. Instead...
Yun Xiang couldn't help but laugh. Bai Mingyang wisely chose a safe path, but safety also meant no gain.
"I don't want to go!" Jin Jiaren looked disgusted. If he worked in a smelly place for an entire afternoon, he would be laughed at by his brothers in the evening. He also had to save his face.
"No matter how embarrassing it is, it's not as embarrassing as Bai Mingyang. Let's go and watch the joke." Yun wanted to see that Jin Jiaren was unmoved.
He immediately pulled out his trump card, "You don't like Eight... Oh, collecting materials, such a good opportunity is missed.
I'm actually curious too, these guys are usually very docile, how did they get provoked?"
Jin Jiaren's curiosity was immediately piqued, "Let's go!"
The two of them walked slowly, trying to stay in the remote outskirts, just to hang out, because it was too smelly.
Soon, a black and white skunk about 20 cm long emerged from the soil.
Skunks have small eyes, short, round ears, and short limbs. They look cute, but their stench is enough to keep people away.
