Chapter 9 Lobster, the Pit of the Spirit Ruins



Upon returning to the beach, Jiang Hao discovered a sea turtle with two health bars near the sea.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a white-shelled sea turtle perched on the back of another sea turtle.

Wow, they're actually exercising?

Jiang Hao grinned and noticed that the sea turtle on top was much larger than the other sea turtles, about the size of two washbasins.

Could it be a boss? Jiang Hao used a detection spell.

Hiss~

Terrifying!

Although its attributes are much worse than that of the LSP standing at the crossroads, but!

It's absolutely not something Jiang Hao can handle right now.

Although Black Iron-level elites are guaranteed to drop Black Iron-level equipment, and the stat boosts are definitely much stronger than ordinary equipment, you still need to be alive to get it, right?

Let's not disturb their grand turtle-building project.

Jiang Hao patted the skeleton turtle's rear end and rode his mount to the left along the edge of the beach.

They hadn't run far when suddenly a half-meter-long lobster stood up from a hole in the beach ahead, waving its two large, red, pot-like claws. Jiang Hao was so frightened that he quickly dodged to the side. Fortunately, the lower half of the lobster's body remained inside the hole and didn't crawl out to attack.

Jiang Hao composed himself and saw that there was a large lobster every ten meters or so on the beach in front of him. It seemed that this was the lobster's territory.

【lobster】

Life: 980

Physical Attack: 168

Physical defense: 19.6

Speed: 28

Skill: Deadly Pliers - Uses pliers to clamp down hard on the opponent, dealing damage equal to 200% of attack power.

Although it is a level 7 monster, compared to a level 6 white-shelled turtle, it is only slightly stronger in attack power and speed, while its health and defense are much weaker. Jiang Hao has no doubt that if they fight head-on, the level 7 lobster will definitely lose to the level 6 white-shelled turtle.

There's another thing the detection technique missed: these lobsters are very timid. Even though Jiang Hao had already entered their warning range, they remained standing in their burrows, brandishing their two large pincers to intimidate him, showing no intention of crawling out to attack him.

Then don't blame me for being impolite.

Jiang Hao stood up and gave the skeleton turtle the battle order. The skeleton turtle moved its four short legs and charged towards the nearest lobster. It opened its mouth and bit down on the lobster.

-160.5

White damage numbers floated up, and the lobster fell into a coma. The skeleton turtle continued its attacks, biting down on it again.

-158

-5

A second later, before the lobster could even wake up, Jiang Hao's staff had already struck it on the head. Then it immediately ran away into the distance.

Taking advantage of the lobster's dizziness, the skeleton turtle bit it again.

-158

-158

In the third second, the skeleton bit the lobster again, and the lobster finally woke up from its dizziness, suddenly opened its pincers, clamped the skeleton turtle, and lifted it high.

-284

-284

Two pincers, each dealing 284 points of damage. The skeleton turtle's health dropped by a third instantly. Moreover, the lobster held the skeleton turtle aloft, showing no sign of letting go. The two pincers, as large as iron pots, squeezed the skeleton turtle again and again; Jiang Hao could even hear the cracking sound of bones grinding together. Terrified, he quickly had the skeleton turtle use its sturdy skill to heal.

-234

-234

+120

The "Sturdy" skill temporarily increases the Skeleton Turtle's armor by 50 points, while reducing the damage of each of the Lobster's claws by 50 points. However, in this state, the Skeleton Turtle cannot attack the Lobster and can only be held aloft by the Lobster, passively taking hits.

-234

-234

+120

The 120 HP regeneration per second was a drop in the ocean compared to the 468 damage per second. The Skeleton Turtle's HP was rapidly decreasing, with only 320 HP remaining. One more pinch from each of the lobster's claws and the Skeleton Turtle would be finished. Jiang Hao was sweating profusely with anxiety.

-234

After being pinched by the lobster's claws, the Skeleton Turtle was left with only 86 health points. The timer finally reached six seconds. Jiang Hao quickly ordered the Skeleton Turtle to forcibly stop its sturdy skill and then snapped its head into the lobster's large claw.

-160.5

White damage numbers floated above the lobster's head, and it simultaneously fell into a coma. Its large pincers loosened, and the skeleton turtle finally broke free, landing shell-side down on the beach. Jiang Hao quickly reached out and flipped its shell over, then sat down on it. Simultaneously, he swung his staff, striking the lobster on the head, and commanded the skeleton turtle to flee for its life.

The skeleton turtle frantically pawed at the ground with its four short legs, and soon it had run quite a distance. Jiang Hao looked back and saw that the lobster hadn't chased after it, so he stopped the skeleton turtle.

I breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if I had escaped death.

He misjudged this time; he didn't expect the lobster's damage to be so high, doubling the damage from the detection skill. He needs to be careful of these system traps next time.

Unable to defeat a level 7 lobster, I can only go back to bullying turtles now.

Jiang Hao glanced at the skeleton turtle beneath him, then climbed off and urged it to recover. After using "Sturdiness" twice, plus the 15.84 health regeneration per second, the skeleton turtle's health was finally full after 25 seconds. In terms of recovery alone, the skeleton turtle was quite commendable.

Riding the Skeleton Turtle, Jiang Hao returned to the beach where the level 6 turtles had been. He could see from afar that the white-shelled turtle boss was still continuing its turtle-building project. Not daring to disturb it, Jiang Hao walked forward a few dozen meters, selected the nearest white-shelled turtle, and then controlled the Skeleton Turtle to retreat until it was about 30 meters away. Jiang Hao then waved his staff.

The sea turtle, which had been basking contentedly in the sun, suddenly vanished from its spot. Under Jiang Hao's staff, which was tilted downwards, the turtle's head seemed to be held up by some mysterious force, preventing the staff from falling. Stars with a dizzying special effect began to dart merrily around the turtle's head, creating an indescribably eerie scene in conjunction with the turtle's blissful expression.

Jiang Hao grinned.

He quickly rode the skeleton turtle backwards. After running another 50 meters, Jiang Hao commanded the skeleton turtle to stop. Turning around, he saw that the turtle had already woken up. After chasing Jiang Hao for 20 meters, it gave up, slowly turned around, and crawled to where Jiang Hao had waved his staff. It was no longer sleeping, but held its head high, looking around warily.

After waiting a few seconds, the talent's duration returned to normal, and Jiang Hao swung his staff again. The sea turtle teleported once more, reappearing beneath the staff, its head bobbing back and forth warily, accompanied by the swirling stars above. The scene was comical, making Jiang Hao want to laugh.

What's even more encouraging is that it seems Jiang Hao can pull the monsters towards him no matter how far away they are. The talent's 100% hit rate effect seems to have no distance limit.

There seems to be a lot of room for maneuver!

Jiang Hao stroked his chin, a sinister smile spreading across his face.
