Luo Xinglan watched everything in shock. The small sand dune slowly rose up, like a plant breaking through the soil, and a huge scorpion with a black sheen slowly emerged.
Sand mixed with tiny scorpions slid off its hard shell, making a rustling sound.
Once the giant scorpion's entire body emerged from the sand, its message appeared.
Desert Giant Scorpion: Leader-level Monster
Health: ? ?
strength:???
agile:???
Skill:???
weakness:? ? ? 】
Luo Xinglan's expression hardened. Sure enough, this was the giant desert scorpion she was looking for!
I never expected the desert giant scorpion to be so big!
The place she was standing on wasn't a sand dune at all; it was on the back of a giant desert scorpion!
The scorpion, the size of a small mountain, truly opened her eyes.
She quickly drew her bow and fired an arrow at the giant desert scorpion! She wanted to check the scorpion's health first.
The arrow, carrying the force of wind and killing intent, broke in two upon contact with the giant desert scorpion's carapace.
The giant desert scorpion, however, remained unharmed.
Luo Xinglan frowned. What a tough body!
The arrow she shot with all her might couldn't even pierce its shell.
This is getting a bit tricky.
Before she could think it through, the giant desert scorpion's stinger bent slightly and stabbed straight at her face!
The tail spike was as thick as a tree trunk and pierced her with overwhelming force. She dodged to the side, but she was still a fraction too slow and was cut by the sharp tail spike!
Fortunately, the Golden Bell Shield protected her, but even so, Luo Xinglan was still numb all over from the force.
That giant scorpion's strength is terrifying!
He could easily defeat her with sheer strength alone!
Her mind raced as she tried to think of a way to defeat the giant desert scorpion, but unfortunately, she couldn't see any information about it and had no idea where its weaknesses lay.
Moreover, the desert giant scorpion's shell was impervious to blades and spears, leaving her with no way to attack and only able to dodge in a sorry state.
After a stalemate of more than ten minutes, Luo Xinglan was starting to run out of energy and her movements slowed down. Before she knew it, she was stung by the stinger of the desert giant scorpion again!
She suddenly felt a tingling sensation all over her body.
The Golden Bell Shield will last for less than three minutes!
No, we have to defeat it before the Golden Bell Shield loses its effect!
While dodging the tail spikes that attacked again, Luo Xinglan observed carefully.
She discovered that every time the desert giant scorpion swung its stinger, its tail would sink deep into the sand, taking about two seconds to pull it out.
To attack the desert giant scorpion, you must make use of these two short seconds!
She spotted the stinger and dodged it with a nimble movement when it attacked again. As she expected, the stinger was deeply embedded in the mud and sand!
Luo Xinglan immediately pulled out her meteor hammer and smashed it hard into the stinger of the desert giant scorpion!
The two were vastly different in size, and she dared not get too close to the desert giant scorpion, so she could only crash into its tail.
The moment the meteor hammer struck the tail spike, it produced a piercing sound, sparks flew out, but the tail spike remained intact.
Critical hit damage! -100!
Luo Xinglan quickly dodged, slightly out of breath.
This attack, even with a critical hit, only dealt 100 damage!
The carapace of this giant scorpion is truly terrifying!
Although the meteor hammer's critical hit damage increases with the number of critical hits, the base damage is ridiculously low, and it's not guaranteed to crit every time.
We still need to use the poison from the crossbow bolts to slowly whittle down his health.
But what if the crossbow bolts can't even scratch the desert giant scorpion?
Luo Xinglan dodged the stinger of the desert giant scorpion once again, and for the first time felt it was a tough situation.
Of course, she didn't just sit and wait to die. She seized every opportunity to hit the desert giant scorpion a few times. Although the damage wasn't great, it was better than nothing.
With only one minute left on the Golden Bell Shield's defense time, she grew anxious and asked the little divine bird, "Little divine bird, can you find a way to tear a crack in the Desert Giant Scorpion's shell?"
After asking the question, she realized she had been too hasty and confused.
The little divine bird is only a few days old! It's not even level 10 yet, and this is its first battle. It's facing a giant scorpion, and even though birds are the nemesis of scorpions, the little divine bird probably won't be able to do anything about it.
If she gets hurt again, she will truly regret it.
Thinking of this, she immediately said, "Never mind, it was me just now..."
Before she could finish speaking, the little divine bird had already rushed out, leaving behind the words, "Master, leave it to me!"
Luo Xinglan was startled and tried to call out to the little divine bird, but it had already flown far away.
Luo Xinglan could only watch anxiously as its tiny figure flew higher and higher, smaller and smaller, until it turned into a black dot and landed beside the desert giant scorpion.
Luo Xinglan's heart clenched tightly.
The next moment, the little divine bird entered a "ready to go" state, its attributes increased by two times, and it rushed towards the side of the giant scorpion like lightning. At the junction of its legs and body, its sharp claws actually tore through the soft shell of the giant scorpion!
Luo Xinglan's eyes lit up! She immediately aimed an arrow at the tear!
-500! Poisoning triggered! -200!
It's done!
It seems that although the Desert Giant Scorpion has high defense, it doesn't have much health, only 20,000.
The giant desert scorpion was in pain after being shot in a soft spot, and temporarily forgot to use its stinger to attack Luo Xinglan.
This allowed her to seize the opportunity and shoot three more arrows at the tear!
After many battles, her archery accuracy has improved significantly compared to before, hitting the target two out of three times.
-500! Poisoning triggered! -200! -200!
-500! Poisoning triggered! -200! -200! -200!
A series of damage numbers appeared one after another, and this time the damage was quite considerable.
Luo Xinglan regained her confidence and, while dodging the attacks of the desert giant scorpion, aimed arrows at its wounds.
Soon, the Desert Giant Scorpion's health bar was reduced to less than one-fifth, and the Golden Bell Shield completely failed.
Luo Xinglan became more cautious in her movements. Now that the Golden Bell Shield was gone, even a slight brush against the tail spike would be enough to cause her serious trouble.
Fortunately for her, she no longer had to worry about the little scorpions. When the giant desert scorpion emerged from the sand, the little scorpions had already retreated to the side.
The giant desert scorpion seemed to have grasped the current situation and knew it couldn't harm the human.
So, when its tail spike stabbed at Luo Xinglan again, the prepared Luo Xinglan quickly dodged. But the tail spike suddenly changed direction and shot out a ball of dark green venom towards Luo Xinglan!
The venom carried an unusually strong odor and came straight at Luo Xinglan!
