Chapter 69: Abyss Predator
The dark brown skin gave people a feeling of being as hard as rock, the eyes were empty and lifeless, and there were long knife-like blades on the arms and below the kneecaps, which made people think of the steel knife held by the executioner.

Ma Yingjie and the withered redbud looked at each other, and saw a trace of helplessness in each other's eyes. Why is it a monster with such abnormal physical defense? In fact, the strength of this abyss predator is not too strong, but it just happens that its physical defense is high, and Ma Yingjie's puppet and the withered redbud are both physical attack types.
"Oh, how nice it would be to have a wizard." The withered Bauhinia flower looked around and sighed helplessly.
Isn’t this an insult?
"Am I not a mage?" Ma Yingjie couldn't help asking.
"But you are the most unlike-a-mage wizard."
"Damn it." Ma Yingjie was furious. What's the difference between this and saying that a man is not like a man? This is definitely the most serious insult, even more serious than insulting someone's physical ability.
Without having time to bother with the withered Bauhinia, Ma Yingjie first cast a slow spell on the Abyss Predator, and then ordered the three black knights to rush towards the Abyss Predator.
After being hit by Lu Hao's Slowness Spell, the Abyss Predator's movements suddenly became slow. Then Lu Hao cast a Weakness Spell on it, and the various attributes of the Abyss Predator also decreased.
The withered Bauhinia also bent its body and launched a sniper attack with a two-second lead time.
A gorgeous arrow mixed with a sharp wind shot towards the Abyss Predator, causing a sudden damage of 667 on the Abyss Predator, and a yellow number floated above the Abyss Predator's head.
The Black Knight squeezed his legs at the same time, and the enhanced Skeleton Horse immediately spread its hooves and rushed towards the Abyss Predator. The Black Knight on the Skeleton Horse held the spear in his hand and activated the Charge skill at the same time.
—333—287—298—311—309—276
A series of damage came from the Abyss Predator, and the Abyss Predator's health immediately dropped.
After performing the auxiliary skills, Ma Yingjie raised the Devil May Cry Staff in his hand and began to chant the spell of Dark Judgment.
"You ignorant fools, abandon the humble creatures of darkness, let your souls sink into hell forever, and accept the judgment of the God of Darkness - the judgment of darkness.
As the spell was chanted, the hammer in the sky suddenly hit the Abyss Predator, causing -800+ damage.
Although the attack was overbearing, it was a pity that it could only be used once every two minutes. Next, Ma Yi continued to use Weakness and Slowness spells on the Abyss Predator to ensure that it would not come out of the negative magic before it died.
The three black knights seemed to have become the main force of the attack. Under the premise that the black knights were brave and fearless, Lu Hao and the withered redbud could attack with confidence. When one of the black knights was beaten to death, the blood of the abyss predator was finally used up.
"Boom."
After a loud bang, the huge body of the Abyss Predator fell down, exploding with several pieces of equipment and gold coins. Dazzling golden light emitted from its body and penetrated into the bodies of Ma Yingjie and the withered Bauhinia flower respectively.
System prompt: Your team killed the Abyss Predator, you gained 120000 experience and 10 reputation.
One hundred and twenty thousand experience points, most of this monster's experience points will be counted on Lu Hao. After all, the Black Knights will not actively absorb experience points to upgrade. What they need is skill proficiency, nothing more.
Even at a high level, the experience of elite monsters is much lower than that of low-level leader monsters and boss monsters. This is a matter of strength.
"Where's the equipment?" Withered Bauhinia clearly saw some equipment dropped just now, how come it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Here are mine." Ma Yingjie said as he took out a few pieces of equipment from the ring space: "The Ring of the Betrayer has an automatic pickup function, it can automatically pick up items."
"This monster didn't drop anything good, just some low-quality stuff. But it was quite generous and gave five gold coins." Lu Hao said after looking at the equipment one by one.
In total, there is one green piece of equipment, two blue pieces of equipment, and several white pieces of equipment, and they are all equipment for thieves and warriors.
"Pervert." The withered Bauhinia took a look at the ancient and mysterious ring on Ma Yihao's hand and cursed in a low voice. Obviously, although they are all divine weapons, they also have different grades. The broken sealed boots are the lowest grade among them, and are even inferior to the dark gold equipment with better attributes.
…………
After this little episode, the Grand Canyon came into the sight of the two. A small path in the ravine-filled canyon led straight to a distant place and merged with the horizon in the distance.
"Go straight along this road, and you'll reach Anlag's lair at the end." The withered Bauhinia looked down at the map and said, his leather armor reflecting a soft light in the dim sunlight.
"It's finally here. After being delayed for so long, this damn mission is finally going to have a conclusion." When Lu Hao heard the words of the withered Bauhinia flower, he let out a long sigh. Lu Hao was drowsy after practicing Tai Chi for a long time, and now this damn mercenary mission is finally showing signs of being concluded.
The two climbed down the steep rocks into the canyon and followed the winding path.
System prompt: You have entered Fenghua Canyon.
Along the way, there were only black stones except for dry tree trunks. There was not even a monster that could relieve the boredom. It was a typical dead zone.
However, there is one thing about this canyon that gives Lu Hao a headache, that is, the road is very long, so long that Lu Hao's legs and feet are numb from walking so much.
"Do you know where Anlag's lair is?" Unable to bear it any longer, Ma Ying-jeou couldn't help but ask the withered Bauhinia, who was walking easily without blushing or beating her heart.
"The quest NPC only said it was at the end of the canyon, but didn't tell us the exact location. We have walked about a quarter of the way now." The withered Bauhinia recalled the words of the quest NPC, and at the same time took out a map to refer to the surrounding environment.
"One third, right?" Ma Yingjie calculated the approximate distance he had traveled, multiplied it by three, and worked out the approximate coordinates. As the withered Bauhinia shyly let Ma Yingjie hug her, he directly activated the ring's teleportation function.
"Not there yet." Ma Hao looked around disappointedly. The scene was exactly the same as before the teleportation, with dark rocks, dry tree trunks, and branches waving in the wind like ghost hands.
"It's not too far, probably about ten miles away." The withered bauhinia flower identified the direction again.
"Why is there still so much to go?" Lu Hao's face was full of black lines. He really couldn't walk anymore. His physical strength was almost exhausted. If it weren't for the fact that the rich woman, the withered Bauhinia, brought a lot of things, including physical strength potions, Lu Hao would have been lying on the road heroically now.
“This road takes a curve, not a straight line.”
"Pass it on again." Ma Yingjie said in a muffled voice.
The white light flashed again, and the two appeared at their destination. Looking at the empty space around them with only a small hill under their feet, they were so sad that they could not even cry.
"You're awesome! It takes twenty miles to reach our destination now." The withered redbud looked at the map and compared the coordinates.
No one could have predicted that such a thing would spread to the top of the mountain. Ma Yingjie didn't want to do that, but life is always so sad.
