God Slime

Chapter 68 Moths to the flame
Hunting is a science.

Legendary hunter Ning Shennong recorded his life in "Hunter's Handbook", which is still used as a teaching material.

He once wrote in the second line of page [-] of "Hunter's Notes": "What is most needed for night hunting is a pair of eyes that can see through the darkness."

This famous saying that is often made fun of by students in class is nonsense, but now it has become a problem that plagues every student.

Especially those first-year students, they probably haven't thought that one day they would go out hunting in the dark, right?

Unfortunately, Rowan is one of them.

The darkest places of his hunting experience so far were the sewers...

And Wang Yan, Ye Ruyu, and Song Ping were not much better than him. Although Song Ping was eloquent when talking about hunting, he was only talking on paper at best, and his hunting experience was even less than that of Luo Wen.

Naturally, they did not immediately realize how foolish it was to travel at night with torches.

According to the original plan, they had to bypass [Man-Eating Hill], and then stop at the edge of a rather wide grassland, which was the nest of [Ghost Fire Rabbit].

[Ghost Fire Rabbit] belongs to the stronger type of first-order monsters. It lives in groups, but the number is not large, which can be used to test the team's combat coordination.

After a certain degree of running-in, they will continue to move forward, and the ultimate goal is the [Fire Bug] in [Hot Wind Canyon].

[Fire Bugs] are still only Tier [-] monsters, but they are numerous and pose no threat to [Blaze Slime]. As long as the strategy is used properly and the cooperation is tacit enough, they can be used to score points.

This hunting, after all, is for the purpose of assessment, and it is inevitably utilitarian.

Although the score calculation is based on the race value of the monster, the stronger the monster can be hunted, the more points you can get, but it is still irrational to choose a powerful monster for hunting.

Even regardless of the danger, the time, energy and stamina required to hunt powerful monsters are much higher than those of low-level monsters.

To put it bluntly, the price/performance ratio is not high enough.

Although the low-level monsters have fewer points, they can completely make up for it with their numbers!
Of course, too many low-level monsters are sometimes more dangerous than high-level monsters.

But Luo Wen was carrying the [Wand of Beasts]!
……

However, as good as the plan is, reality often doesn't go according to plan.

The four of Rowan and the others had just approached [Man-Eating Hill], but a group of uninvited guests had already surrounded them. That was [Fire Moth]!
Fluorescent dust flutters in the wind, and palm-sized moths gather in groups, as dazzling as large fireflies, but what they represent is not the romance of the night, but the pain that burns the skin!
Moths fly into flames, an idiom based on the light-oriented properties of moths. Its suffix is ​​"suicide"!
But now, it is not moths that are killing themselves, but humans.

When Rowan noticed it, this group of [fire moths] that had started spiraling around the fire source hundreds of meters away had entered the field of vision. Their phosphorous powder is the best combustion accelerant, and just a ray of flame can completely destroy the fire. ignite.

Several forest fires occur each year, usually to their credit.

"The fire moth is a first-order monster, its attribute is fire, its race value is 16, and its good skill is flame body, which is the same skill as the flame worm I demonstrated."

Rowan quickly reported the information of [Firefly Moth], and then summoned [Balrog Slime] immediately.

Wang Yan pulled out the [Crystal Nucleus Gun] at the same time. She is a gunner, and the pet she owns is a third-order pet [Bright Butterfly] whose main attribute is wisdom.

But after pulling out the [Crystal Nucleus Gun], she still dared not shoot, because the light bullet she fired would burst out with a more powerful light, which was especially dazzling at night, and would definitely attract more [fire guns] moth】!
Looking at the densely packed [fire moths], Song Ping couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and said: "The fire moths are nocturnal creatures, they will be attracted by the fire, and come in groups. The best way to deal with them is to immediately put out the torches, live For a period of time, they can't see the fire, and they will leave naturally."

What he meant was obviously that he wanted everyone to put out the torches and wait for [Fire Moth] to leave before continuing on their way.

But Luo Wen didn't think so, he said in a deep voice: "The plan has changed, let's warm up with this fire moth!"

"Warm up? Use fire moths?" Song Ping was stunned, "Isn't this too much?"

"Don't worry, as long as we cooperate well, this number of fire moths is nothing to worry about."

Rowan glanced at him and began to direct the three of them to act.

The team's combat mode had been discussed during the day, and the occupations of the four people were surprisingly evenly distributed.

Luo Wen and Song Ping are fighters, Wang Yan is a gunner, and Ye Ruyu is a warlock.

In team battles, Rowan acts as the vanguard, mainly responsible for storming and attracting monsters.

Song Ping responded in the middle, merged with melee attacks and protected the two girls behind.

Ye Ruyu cooperated with her pet [Green Shadow Tree Man] to build a defensive force field.

She is not qualified enough to create a crystal wall shield with her own ability, but she can easily do it with [Green Shadow Treant].

Finally, there is Wang Yan. All she needs to do is hide behind the crystal wall and use the [Crystal Core Gun] to continuously shoot the enemies.

In general, each performs his own duties.

"Ye Ruyu doesn't need to create a crystal wall shield. He only needs to use the field to blow away the phosphorus powder sprinkled by the fire moths. Don't let the flammable dust contaminate us. And Wang Yan can just shoot with the gun! Don't be afraid of the light bullets. Attract more fire moths. I will kill as many as they come!"

After giving simple instructions, Rowan commanded [Balrog Slime] to rush out!
[Hotmoth] can fly, and it's not too low. It is too difficult for humans to fight with it, so Rowan himself did not rush out with the pet, but chose to concentrate on manipulating [Balrog Slime]!
As soon as it rushed out, [Balrog Slime]'s body was already covered with flammable phosphorous powder, but it was not afraid at all, and took the initiative to ignite the phosphorous powder. commotion.

Compared with the torches in the hands of Rowan and others, the flames made by [Balrog Slime] are obviously more attractive to the fire moths. It rolls in the flames, and when it comes out, it already has a feeling of [flame body] , The whole body burst into a strong flame instantly!

Gradually, the flying center of [Fire Moth] began to shift to [Balrog Slime]!
Spin, fly, approach, pounce!
[Hotmoth] followed this single pattern, one by one swooped down towards [Balrog Slime], and then was ignited by the fire of the Balrog, fell to the ground after a few hops, until it was burnt into coke !

“This is the real moth flying into the flame!”

Wang Yan was amazed as she shot the [Fire Moth] that slipped through the net.

Song Ping stood there awkwardly, his pet was really not suitable to take action in this situation.
