Chapter 149 Encounter with Earth Elementals



"Waaa, it's time for us to head back!"

Joey called out to Digger, who was still digging in the distance, and told him to follow him back to Ashfurnace.

It's been almost a month since I last went out, and my shooting skills have improved dramatically. I should go back for a visit.

Although I have always adhered to the principle of recycling the arrows I use, the damage rate is relatively high, and more than half of the arrows are completely unusable.

However, he hadn't used the explosive arrows and frost arrows himself; he was still somewhat reluctant to use these relatively expensive arrows as props for daily practice.

"Dig! Dig!"

When Wawa heard Joey call him, he looked up at him, replied to Joey, and then continued digging the hole.

WaWa's persistence sometimes made Joey admire him. He put away the shark bow in his hand and slowly walked towards WaWa, intending to continue urging him to leave as soon as possible.

"Boom!"

The once quiet ground suddenly began to shake, and at the same time, a loud noise came from where the digger was standing.

"Wawa, come back quickly!"

Joey sensed danger and, after regaining his balance, hurriedly shouted to Dig Dig.

WaWa seemed to realize the danger was approaching at this moment. As soon as Joey spoke, he immediately stopped what he was doing, jumped out of the pit, and prepared to run over.

But at that moment, a strange thing happened. A huge arm covered in soil and rocks stretched out from the pit and grabbed at the digger who had just jumped out of the pit.

"Dig! Dig!"

Wawa was a step too slow, and his body was immediately grabbed by the giant hand, causing him to shout desperately at Joey, probably pleading for help.

"Dig, dig, don't move!"

Joey stopped in his tracks, standing still, watching nervously as the body beneath the giant hand slowly crawled out of the pit.

"Boom boom boom..."

Not long after, a huge stone statue, six or seven meters tall, crawled out of the pit.

There was a crystal resembling a mineral on its head, which is probably why the digger came looking for it.

"Is this an earth elemental or a monster?"

Although Joey had read many books about this world and seen illustrations of some monsters, this was the first time he had seen one in person, so he was still a little unsure.

However, no one can answer his questions now, and he can only rely on himself to save Wawa.

No, although it's me, I'm not fighting alone right now.

"Come out, Pigsy!"

Joey suddenly shouted, and a flash of white light appeared beside him; Zhu Bajie had indeed appeared next to him.

"Didn't you say there was no work today? Weren't you going back to Ashfurnace City? I'm still sleeping!"

Zhu Ganglie looked sleepy, as if he had just woken up.

"We were out of work before, but a big job came up unexpectedly, so I had to ask you to come out and help out!"

Joey said to Zhu Ganglie, but Zhu Ganglie always acted like this whenever he came out, as if he wasn't his master but just an ordinary friend, speaking without any respect for elders.

"Big job?"

Only then did Zhu Ganglie open his eyes, his gaze rising from low to high as he looked at the earth elemental in front of him.

"Sorry, I can't handle this. Good luck!"

As soon as Zhu Ganglie finished speaking, he turned into a beam of white light and disappeared.

"Grass! (a type of plant)"

Joey suddenly felt that he had been a hunter for nothing. Thinking about how Reeb's pet charged into battle, he felt a huge sense of inadequacy.

"It must be the pet's fault, not my problem!"

Joey could only console herself with this thought. After all, she had already chosen her career and couldn't change it for the rest of her life. She had no choice but to grit her teeth and keep going.

"Um... Lord Earth Elemental, could you please release my friend!"

Joey's plan was to first try diplomacy before resorting to force, avoiding escalation of conflict if possible, since he was a pacifist, at least when facing this earth elemental.

"roar!"

It's unclear whether the earth elemental was enraged by Joey's words or by the fact that Dig Dig had disturbed it, but it suddenly roared in fury.

At the same time, it suddenly grabbed a piece of gravel from the ground with its other hand and threw it at Joey, startling Joey into quickly dodging it.

"If you disagree, fine, but why did you have to resort to violence?"

"You started this, so don't cry later!"

Joey is the kind of person who seeks revenge for every wrong done to him, and he'll retaliate immediately without holding back overnight.

He muttered something, dodged the attack, and immediately took the longbow from his back. He then pinched an ordinary arrow from the quiver with two fingers, nocked it, and aimed at the earth elemental's enormous head.

"Whoosh!"

The arrow flew from the bowstring and struck the large head precisely, producing a metallic clang.

The arrow failed to penetrate the enemy's armor and fell directly to the ground, while the earth elemental's gaze towards Joey grew even angrier.

It grabbed another piece of gravel nearby and threw it, but Joey nimbly dodged it.

Then Dig was thrown directly at Joey, it seems this earth elemental is a low-IQ person with a screw loose.

Although his defense is very high, Joey already has a plan.
