The Red Scorpion King still wanted to break through this barrier, but then the surroundings shook, and after a dizzying spin, it actually took flight.
Red Scorpion King: Mom, it can fly!
Red Scorpion King: No, it's in danger!
The Red Scorpion King took flight, and I watched it drift further and further away from the ground.
The seriousness of the situation was finally realized.
Until Shen Jue appeared.
Red Scorpion King: I was careless. This player suddenly attacked me, which caught me off guard and I didn't react in time.
In the operation to capture the Red Scorpion King, Shen Jue's mental power played a very important role, instantly capturing the exact location of the Red Scorpion King the moment it broke out of the ground.
I decisively placed the bottle opening above the red scorpion king, waited for it to come out and take a few steps, and then covered it with the glass jar.
Because the glass jar was in her hand, and it was also invisible, the Red Scorpion King couldn't see it.
Shen Jue waited patiently for the scorpion to come to him and captured the Red Scorpion King.
It takes absolutely no effort.
Now, she needs to find a safe place.
Let's refine the toxins inside the Red Scorpion King.
She knew that the venom of the Red Scorpion King was extremely valuable; if it could be extracted, it could be used for various purposes in the future, and could also be used to make many toxic medicines.
After searching for a while, Shen Jue finally found an open space.
After surveying the area, it was determined that this place was neither a habitat for strange beasts nor a location where the boss could easily hide.
There were no other creatures around, making it an excellent place to extract toxins.
Shen Jue decided to carry out the refining work here to ensure that the refining process would not be disturbed. During the refining process, Shen Jue carefully used a tube to gently lift the glass cover, revealing a gap.
Take out a spray bottle and spray it a few times along the opened seam inside the glass cover; it's a spray bottle for fogging.
Any creature that smells this fogging agent will immediately faint within three seconds, and the fainting period will last for one day.
Even if faced with life-or-death danger, they will not wake up; it's like a super-powerful anesthetic. This fogging agent is an upgraded version of rosemary medicine.
Fearing the dosage wasn't enough, Shen Jue sprayed a few more times. Then she quickly sealed the glass lid and waited for the Red Scorpion King to faint.
This way, she could do whatever she wanted, and extracting toxins would be a piece of cake for her.
After a while, the red scorpion king in the jar suddenly felt sleepy.
Oh no, this player is trying to harm it. It can't sleep, it absolutely can't sleep.
However, no matter how much the Red Scorpion King resisted, it eventually closed its eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
The effects of the rosemary spray last for 24 hours, so even if the Red Scorpion King is powerful, he'll have to lie still for six or seven hours.
Then, Shen Jue poured the Red Scorpion King out of the glass jar.
She took out her tools and materials for extracting toxins.
During the refining process, Shen Jue maintained a high level of focus to ensure the purity and quality of the toxins.
After a period of refining, the Red Scorpion King's venom was finally successfully extracted. The concentrated venom filled an entire vial of medicine, enough to last for a long time.
After completing the refining process, Shen Jue swiftly and decisively killed the Red Scorpion King.
After the Red Scorpion King died, it dropped some materials and a regular treasure chest reward.
Shen Jue was already quite content, after all, the Red Scorpion King wasn't born a leader or boss.
Instead, it levels up step by step through mutation, so it's normal that killing it yields less reward.
Now, she has to explore each of the ruins' markers one by one...
On the other side of the ruins, without the Red Scorpion King suppressing the scorpion swarm, the previous red scorpion was restless, wanting to become the Red Scorpion King.
Then, this red scorpion beat up all the remaining red scorpions, and finally succeeded in becoming the red scorpion king, becoming the new leader of the scorpion swarm.
However, what it didn't know was that the Red Scorpion King could be resurrected, and the day the Red Scorpion King returned after his resurrection would be the day the newly appointed Red Scorpion King would die.
Due to the unique mechanics of the battlefield, anyone who reaches the leader level can be resurrected indefinitely.
The newly appointed Red Scorpion King did not reach the level of a boss leader.
If it dies, it cannot be brought back to life.
Here, Shen Jue accelerated at full speed and arrived at the new ruins marker.
The ruins were very quiet and seemed to be untouched. As for whether there were any creatures inside, Shen Jue had not yet investigated.
Just then, a commotion arose in the distance.
"Lin Xiaoxiao, what do you mean?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, why did you save that person just now? We're already in great danger on this battlefield, and now you're carrying a wounded person. Monsters and bosses can appear at any time on this battlefield. Carrying an unconscious person like that is just asking for death! Just because you're lucky doesn't mean we're lucky. What you're doing will kill everyone!" The girl added angrily after saying that.
"I'll just ask you one question: are you going to throw him away or not?"
Faced with her teammates' doubts, Lin Xiaoxiao was a little sad, but then her eyes filled with determination.
“I won’t abandon him!” Lin Xiaoxiao replied.
"You're incredibly naive. Do you think we're here to play a game? This is a killing field where we could die at any moment, and you're carrying an unconscious wounded soldier. Our chances of survival are skyrocketing!"
"Then what do you think we should do?" Lin Xiaoxiao countered. "He was injured while saving us. Are we just going to leave him here to die without helping him?"
The girl who was talking to Lin Xiaoxiao was silent for a moment, then said, "I don't care, I'm not going to agree to take him with me. I advise you to leave him behind too, otherwise we'll just leave on our own."
Lin Xiaoxiao looked at her teammates, feeling somewhat disappointed.
Knowing perfectly well what kind of person she is, why do you still harbor illusions?
The battlefield is dangerous, but even in danger, death is the only outcome.
Everyone has their own way of surviving. Just because she is not afraid of death doesn't mean that others aren't.
The situation is dangerous, and she respects other people's choices. However, she has her own principles.
She will not give up on life easily.
"Alright then!" Lin Xiaoxiao sighed.
"Since we disagree, let's go our separate ways." With that, Lin Xiaoxiao turned and walked towards the unconscious wounded man.
This person was injured while saving them. Although they were complete strangers, she was responsible for their injury.
Protect him at least until he is fully conscious.
Fortunately, she was very lucky.
Without any deliberate effort to improve his strength, he ranks in the middle among all players.
With good luck and decent skills, they were able to save this injured player.
The current situation is one she chose herself. Lin Xiaoxiao felt a pang of sadness as she watched Lin Na turn and walk away.
After all, we've been together for so long and fought so many battles, so we've developed a strong bond of camaraderie. Parting now is bound to be painful.
Lin Xiaoxiao knew clearly that this decision would put her in an even more dangerous situation, but she did not regret it.
In this battlefield of carnage, some principles cannot be abandoned.
As human beings, we should still have some humanity. Otherwise, if we stay immersed in the atmosphere of becoming stronger for a long time, we will lose our humanity.
How is that any different from those monsters that relentlessly hunt down players?
Lin Xiaoxiao cast a protective barrier on herself and the injured person.
This barrier can last for 72 hours, and three days is enough time for the unconscious person to wake up.
Shen Jue watched this scene with cold eyes.
You can't call Lin Xiaoxiao a hypocrite; you can only say that she has principles in her conduct and actions.
A false saint is someone who takes advantage of others' misfortunes to gain fame for themselves. But Lin Xiaoxiao didn't do that. She simply offered her opinion, disagreed with her teammates, and didn't drag them down.
They went their separate ways afterward, but someone like Lin Xiaoxiao wouldn't go far on the battlefield of killing.
If she survives this ordeal, Shen Jue can't guarantee 100% that her personality will change, but there's a 98% chance it will drastically.
The human heart is the most unpredictable thing, and it cannot withstand the test.
By then, Lin Xiaoxiao will understand that the law of the jungle is the rule of this world, and she should shatter the peaceful world she has imagined.
I'm currently invisible, and Lin Xiaoxiao and the wounded soldier won't be leaving anytime soon. Why not use them to probe the true nature of these ruins?
Based on her current information, each ruin sign indicates the presence of a horde of strange beasts, and a boss may emerge from among these beasts.
Moreover, these hidden beasts are extremely sensitive to the presence of players; they will definitely come out to attack as soon as a player arrives.
Lin Xiaoxiao, currently in the center of the ruins, is unaware that a crisis is quietly approaching.
Sure enough, not long after, a group of mutated lizards appeared at the entrance to the ruins.
Because of the commotion, Lin Xiaoxiao turned around and saw a group of mutated lizards rushing towards her.
This time, the mutated lizard looked quite strange, very much in line with the characteristics of a strange beast.
Their teeth and claws are very sharp, but their appearance is terrifying.
His rough skin looked as if it had been drenched in lava.
It perfectly matches the characteristics described in the encyclopedia of mythical creatures.
The mutated lizards that rushed towards them clearly spotted Lin Xiaoxiao and her companion in the center of the ruins. Their usual good luck suddenly failed them. The mutated lizards frantically lunged at the barrier, causing the light protecting it to weaken more and more.
Lin Xiaoxiao watched all of this with trepidation. Although she was confident she could escape with the wounded, she had never encountered such a large-scale attack by so many strange beasts before.
Could it be that the location she randomly chose for protection was the lair of these strange beasts?
Lin Xiaoxiao quickly checked her feet and found that the ground was loose.
Lin Xiaoxiao made a quick decision, taking out a petrification card and petrifying the ground within a ten-meter radius centered on her, preventing the mutated lizard from breaking through the ground into the barrier.
However, she didn't have many petrification cards, so she could only use them for a short time.
If these mutated beasts haven't left by the time the petrification card's effect ends, they'll be in danger.
We can't just sit here and wait to die; we have to think of a way to break through.
Lin Xiaoxiao tossed out cards one by one, and she actually killed quite a few mutated lizards.
The card Lin Xiaoxiao used was one that Shen Jue was familiar with; wasn't it the small-scale explosion card she sold in the mall?
Lin Xiaoxiao has so many cards; it seems she was given a lot of gold coins before.
Should she lend a hand to her?
Shen Jue thought about it and finally decided not to help.
If Lin Xiaoxiao can't even get past this hurdle, then she will only face greater dangers. She will continue to watch the show and reap the benefits.
