I dreamed of returning to ancient times, and I became a beast tamer
Chapter 16: Human-Headed Mantis
Previously, a group of evil spirits witnessed the power of the Nian beast and fled into the underworld.
Lu Yuan can stop fast forwarding at any time, thinking that they might call for reinforcements. In order to prevent them from launching a surprise attack, he is always ready to call on Dabai to launch a counterattack.
Unexpectedly, they came to Lu Yuan only after Dabai finished his training.
The evil spirits' efficiency of action is simply too slow.
Uncle Jiang also stood up quickly and took the initiative to approach Dabai.
From being afraid of the Nian beast to relying on it, no one knows what Jiang Bo went through in his heart. Now the only one he can rely on is the Nian beast, hoping that its ability to suppress evil is powerful enough.
"Hoohohoho——"
"How dare you, a human beastmaster who hasn't even fully grown his hair, kill my son? Do you know what your grandfather ate to grow up? How dare you!"
The shrill laughter pierced through the forest. The vibrant forest suddenly became dead silent. The insects stopped chirping and the leaves stopped swaying.
Lu Yuan saw a strange burly man wearing a black martial arts suit. He looked like a human from the head, but not from the lower body.
It has a man's head, long hair tied back, and the limbs sticking out from its clothes are like green mantis blades.
Each of the long green legs was wearing a pair of coarse cloth trousers, with clear lines of strong muscles and pointed toes nailed to the ground, making it look powerful yet light.
The torso of the human-headed mantis is upright, and the first two rows of blades have sharp serrations that are folded on the chest, rubbing against each other and making loud sounds.
The four lower legs are standing separately, with the two legs leaning forward and the two back legs stretched wide apart, clearly showing signs of preparing for an attack and accumulating strength.
"How could it be!"
When Jiang Bo saw the human-headed mantis walking upright, he took a deep breath and felt a chill all the way to the top of his head and his entire body.
The appearance of the human head is said to be the head of a beastmaster in Xuxi Village a hundred years ago.
Eighty years ago, the human-headed mantis began to eat people in the village. Nearly 30% of the elderly people in the village have been eaten by it.
The key is that it can speak human language and is very good at cutting leeks. It deliberately does not eat middle-aged people and children, leaving them to have children.
After the annual disaster, the Nian beast groups retreated, and the human-headed mantis led hundreds of ghosts out to collect offerings at the village gate.
If you don't pay tribute, it will start killing people.
None of the ancestors in their village was stronger than it, so they could do nothing to it.
The people in the village once tried to ask the masters in Qianshan City to tame it.
Unfortunately, after that master went to the underworld, he never appeared again. I don’t know if he died there.
As this incident went on, the people in the village had no choice but to submit to the evil spirit.
Fortunately, the annual payment required by the other party is not much, and our ancestors wish everyone to have more children, otherwise there would be no life in this village.
For example, Uncle Jiang's family draws lots every year and offers sacrifices to several people. Now there are only him and Jiang Xue left. If he hadn't helped his granddaughter find a boy who is willing to marry into the family, he would have been a sacrifice next year at his age.
At this time, the surrounding woods were filled with ghosts, and all the one-star and two-star evil spirits showed up.
They opened their mouths and let out a "hehe" laugh, their eyes curved into crescent shapes with crazy expressions, as if they wanted to see rivers of blood and expressions of fear on human faces.
Look, the old man with slightly gray hair has become frightened. He stays close to the white-haired Nian beast and even retracts his firecracker beast, for fear that he will be killed by the "human-headed mantis".
However, when the evil spirits looked at Lu Yuan, they found that Lu Yuan was still calm and did not show the frightened expression that everyone wanted to see.
"Ok?"
"Are not you afraid?"
The human-headed mantis said dissatisfiedly, what's wrong with this guy, doesn't he know who he is?
In this dark ghost realm, the human-headed mantis is one of the two most powerful generals of the "Human King". Everyone dies when it sees it, and ghosts are afraid of it. Wherever it goes, others are afraid of it.
"Uncle Jiang, is this a whirlwind mantis?" Lu Yuan asked.
Uncle Jiang felt Lu Yuan's calmness, and the fear in his heart subsided a little. He shook his head, then nodded hesitantly.
The mantis body is indeed a tornado mantis, but the human head on the mantis is obviously not an authentic tornado mantis, but a mutant that has been contaminated and turned into an evil one.
"It's a mutant, with the body of a whirlwind mantis. It can do whirlwind slash and use two swords, but the swords are poisonous, making it more difficult to deal with than the ordinary whirlwind mantis." Uncle Jiang said with a bitter face.
The Whirlwind Mantis is a wind-attributed pet, and its attacks cause wind damage. After mutating into an evil spirit, it also causes venom, becoming a dual-attribute attack that is extremely terrifying.
When dual-attribute damage is injected into the pet's body, the two forces will become a mess inside the body, further weakening the pet's power.
Ordinary three-star beasts have basically no chance of survival when facing it.
Only four-star pets can fight.
I hope the Nian beast Dabai can hold on.
"Is that so? It would be a shame to just kill him then."
Instead of being afraid, Lu Yuan became even happier.
Seeing this, Jiang Bo didn't know what to say.
Others are so scared that their legs go weak, but you are so happy.
When the human-headed mantis saw Lu Yuan's calm appearance, it narrowed its eyes and revealed a fierce look.
Sonorous.
The sharp mantis blades collided with each other, making a sound of metal and stone.
"Dabai, use the light to suppress evil to clear the area, and then fight with it to test its strength." Lu Yuan said.
The Whirlwind Mantis’s heritage is three stars, and the upper limit is three stars.
Dabai is a pet bred scientifically to make up for its physical defects. It may not be able to defeat a three-star beast of the same level of training, but in an ancient environment, that may not be the case.
“Ah!”
The black horn suddenly burst into a dazzling light, and the one-star evil spirit that came to watch was directly melted into the shape of black mist, and the remaining two-star spectators were all on fire and let out terrible screams.
Further away, the one-star evil spirits shrank their necks, fortunately they did not follow.
This time, the ghosts' trip was led by the human-headed mantis, who brought along many unsuspecting little evil spirits.
The little evil spirits who knew about it did not come near to watch, while the evil spirits who were unaware of the situation turned into black mist when they were nearby, and were all taken into the mouth of the terrible white-haired Nian beast when it opened its mouth.
At this moment, the situation immediately reversed. The audience dispersed and fled for their lives, not daring to look back.
The human-headed mantis was hit directly by the evil-suppressing light and screamed in pain.
But it was not seriously injured, only left with black burn marks on its skin.
The human-headed mantis is not a pure spirit, it is an evil spirit with flesh and blood. It has lived for decades and has received guidance from the "Human King". It has vaguely touched the boundary of four stars. Naturally, it will not be seriously injured by a long-range illumination.
Lu Yuan also knew that this evil spirit was very ferocious and it was impossible to defeat it with just one attack.
The authentic use of the Light to Suppress Evil is to inject the talisman into the enemy's body, causing it to explode from the inside out and suppress the evil.
Long-range illumination can only disgust enemies at the same level.
His mind moved, and he directed Dabaidao:
"Open the stealth mode, rush over from the left and go around the back, with the light hidden!"
“Ah!”
receive!
Dabai has three star skills.
One is hiding.
The second is the Rain Spirit Needle.
The third is the light that suppresses evil.
The core skill is the Light to Suppress Evil. This skill can be half-activated, with the light restrained and enchanted onto one's own hair.
At this time, activate the two-star skill Rain of Spirit Needles, so that each needle has the effect of suppressing evil, which is very effective against evil spirits in the flesh and blood.
If the Beastmaster knows about acupuncture points and acupuncture, as long as he finds out the weak points on the enemy's body, and combines them with the effects of Torrential Spirit Needles and Evil-Suppressing Light, he can unleash an amazing combination of effects.
In this battle, Lu Yuan was not at a disadvantage from the beginning.
