Chapter 73 Dinner is Rabbit
Chapter 73 Dinner is Rabbit
Tessa no longer had time to reinforce the seal.
Just as the skeleton was about to touch Tessa, Otto cast Purifying Fire once again.
Otto's large hand passed through the skull formed from miasma, and the once warm and comforting light now became a torch for exorcising evil spirits!
With the roar of the skeleton, the last wisp of miasma completely dissipated.
At this moment, Otto also obtained some fragments of the skeleton's memories.
This appears to be the soul of a goblin.
The goblin settlement lost out to the kobold settlement in their struggle for territory, and even the goblin itself became a sacrifice to the kobolds.
At this moment, Otto finally understood that sometimes, monsters could be enemies.
While digesting the knowledge he had just gained, Otto and Goren killed the remaining four immobile kobolds and looted the cabin.
Unfortunately, apart from the kobolds, there was nothing else worth taking away from here.
"It seems that this broken blade is all we've got."
Goren examined the broken blade closely, as if he had noticed something.
"I can feel the magic still swirling around it. I'll take it back to Master Micah and see if he can make something out of this material."
Goren breathed a sigh of relief. Although he hadn't gained much from the trip, he had at least obtained a unique material, so it wasn't a complete loss.
"Alright, we need to hurry and get to the area where the Moonflower grows."
"We might even meet some colleagues there."
Goren shouldered his luggage again and urged his companions to hurry up and set off; their adventure wasn't over until they got home.
……
As night deepened, the three adventurers walked through the forest, their steps heavy, closely following Sabrina who was leading the way.
This team is none other than the Rabbit Foot Squad.
Captain Frederick walked behind Sabrina.
His gaze kept drifting to Sabrina's body, which was wrapped in a cloak.
The two people standing to the side were even more impatient.
They've been following Sabrina all day, when will they finally arrive?
"Sabrina, how much further?"
Seeing the unrest among the people, Frederick immediately asked in a deep voice.
Yesterday, Sabrina found them and showed them several huge clumps of vines, saying that she knew where the carnivorous vines gathered and that they could harvest them at will if they found the right spot.
She asked the three men to help her with the hunt, promising to split the spoils together.
But the condition is that Joel can't go with them.
Sabrina's explanation was that Joel was a burden and would hinder her hunting.
Frederick was short of money recently, so after receiving information from Sabrina, he quickly agreed to her terms.
Anyway, we can deal with her after we get back.
Frederick didn't take him seriously at all; he was just a novice.
After all, he was a superhuman professional. Although he couldn't beat a madman like Goren, he could hold his own against the big guys around him. Why would he worry about a novice scout?
But Sabrina seemed to have led them for too long; not only were the big guy and his companions tired, but even Frederick himself was getting a little weary.
But seeing that the girl didn't reply, a hint of greed and lust flashed in Frederick's eyes.
Although he hadn't originally planned to play around with Sabrina before the hunt to avoid her using the task of leading the way to blackmail him, he was now very tired, and this girl had to take responsibility for her actions!
For some reason, even though Sabrina's appearance was far inferior to those beauties in the brothels, Frederick's desire was aroused by her ever since he saw her at the camp, as were the other two. Perhaps this was the natural charm of a young girl.
Despite his less-than-ideal appearance, Frederick simply saw it as an adventure!
Thinking of this, Frederick strode toward Sabrina, but at that moment, Sabrina pointed to the cave in front of them.
"We've arrived, in that cave."
With a large amount of material right in front of him, Frederick could no longer suppress his lust.
"That's enough. Now that we've arrived, you're no longer of any use."
Let's get some rest tonight and go hunting again tomorrow!
A seasoned adventurer would never be so reckless, but Frederick had long since lost all his pride as an adventurer, dedicating his entire soul to desire.
At that moment, Frederick revealed his true colors and immediately tried to grab Sabrina.
Although Sabrina's appearance is somewhat unsightly, it doesn't matter, it's all the same when it's dark!
But at that moment, something unexpected happened.
Countless dark green vines suddenly burst forth from the ground, from the tree trunks, and even from the canopy above everyone's heads!
They pounced on the group like hungry, venomous snakes!
The vines were covered with sharp barbs that gleamed coldly in the dim light.
"Be careful!"
Frederick's teammate yelled and immediately raised his fist to smash the vine.
One of the vines was thrown off course by the big guy, slowing its attack, but this was just the beginning.
More and more vines surged in from all directions, dense and endless!
At this moment, the forest's malice was on full display, as if the whole world had abandoned them!
Frederick cursed his bad luck under his breath, then drew his sword and chopped down the vines that were lunging at him.
As a strongman, although he didn't gain any decent professional traits, Frederick's strength was indeed enhanced, and he felt that dealing with these monsters wouldn't be a problem.
But then, Frederick's expression changed.
The cut vines immediately secreted a yellowish-green liquid from their bases.
These liquids, just dripping onto the ground, corroded small holes in the decaying leaves!
Another member, sensing something was wrong, immediately used all his strength, unleashing the full power of his punch.
Fists rained down like a storm, but even if every punch landed precisely on the roots of the vines, it was to no avail.
The flesh-eating vine is incredibly resilient.
The vines that had lost their roots actually took hold of their companions, were reborn, and continued to rush towards the group.
"Damn it, the carnivorous vine's properties don't match the report!"
He didn't recall the report mentioning that carnivorous vines contained corrosive substances!
Frederick roared and slashed at the vine that was wrapped around his ankle, but immediately new vines wrapped around his arm.
The barbs pierced his leather armor and dug deep into his flesh; the parasitism had begun!
The intense pain made him grimace and scream.
Seeing this, the other two immediately tried to abandon Frederick and Sabrina and run away.
But then, countless vines formed an impenetrable green wall behind them.
At this moment, Frederick and his two companions had no way out.
They could only desperately fight against the creeping vines.
This battle lasted for a full hour.
Frederick had run out of all the supplements he carried, and he had even gone through three swords; he had no more in stock!
At this moment, the yellowish-green toxin is spreading along their blood vessels, numbing their arms and gradually robbing them of their ability to move.
The two boxers didn't even have the strength to clench their fists anymore, and their breathing was so rapid it was like bellows!
Just in this tense and desperate moment, they suddenly discovered something strange.
After confirming that the three had exhausted their strength, the large net woven by the carnivorous vines slowly dispersed from the wall.
Sabrina, whom they had assumed had long since perished under the onslaught of the carnivorous vines, now stood there, quietly watching them struggle!
