Chapter 147: Mermaid Cancer Knight

Chapter 147: Mermaid Cancer Knight
Silent all night.

Early the next morning, the three of them gathered in the square.

All three of them were fully armed, and even Ramen Brother sold all his belongings to get a few talismans for emergency use.

This mission must be completed.

The city gate hadn't opened yet, but good news had arrived. Jin Fugui was indeed efficient and sold all the skill books in just one night.

"Brother, I could have offered a higher price, but you are in a hurry, so I have to lower the price a bit. 47 taels, minus my commission, there are still 46.5 taels left, keep it."

Thank you very much! Xiao Jie was quite satisfied with the price, at least it was much cheaper than listing it at an auction house.

As for whether Jin Fugui made extra money, that was not something he needed to consider.

"Come on, brothers, divide the money." Xiao Jie gave out 15 taels to each person without saying anything.

"Oh, why are you being so polite? There's no need to give me so much."

Although Ramen Brother spoke politely, he was not slow at all in collecting the money. He was overjoyed when he saw the fifteen taels of silver. It was so difficult to earn a few taels of silver on a normal day, but he didn't expect to get off to a good start after killing an elite monster.

Fifteen taels is one hundred and fifty thousand. An ordinary person may not be able to earn that much money in a year.

I am more concerned about today's actions.

"Wait a minute, I'm going to learn a skill."

After saying that, he left in a hurry, and came back happily a moment later.

"Just watch me perform today, Brother Feng. I just learned a big move that I've been dreaming of. I promise it will be powerful when the time comes."

Before, he was called Brother Suifeng, but now that the money has been received, he is called Brother Feng.

Xiao Jie was not surprised by this. As he watched the city gate open, he gave an order - "Move!"

The three riders and the bear galloped towards the fishing village.

The story is brief. Before nine o'clock, the three of them arrived at the fishing village. However, Granny Li was already waiting outside the thatched cottage, instructing Li Bao about something.

"Bao'er, when the fight starts you must not come out, just hide in the house, and your mother-in-law will help you deal with the problems outside."

"Mother-in-law, I can also join the battle. Let me help. I have been practicing swordsmanship very hard in the past few years."

"No, you are the only child of our Li family. If anything goes wrong with you, how can I explain to your father, your grandfather, your great grandfather, and your great-grandfather? No matter what, you should hide yourself for me."

"But, a man should--"

"There's no buts. You haven't even turned fifteen yet. You're not a real man, you're more like a brat. Be good, we can talk about it after your birthday."

The three men got off their horses and came to the two men. Li Bao looked at Xiao Jie and others helplessly, then turned around and went back to the house.

Xiao Jie was quite surprised when he looked at Granny Li at this time. The old woman was dressed in dark clothes, holding two swords, and her hair was tied up with a piece of red silk and inserted with a copper hairpin. She had some of the lingering charm of a chivalrous woman.

Granny Li (Salted Fish Merchant): "Thank you all for coming to help today. I have something to say. Today's matter is very serious. Those fish spirits and water monsters will definitely not give up and will attack with all their strength. Please be prepared. But I am not a stingy person. To be honest, I also roamed the world for a while in the past. People gave me the nickname of Flying Night Demon Li Cuilan.

After many years of adventure, I have collected a lot of magical weapons, gold and silver treasures, and martial arts secrets. As long as the three of you can help me survive this disaster, you can choose any of these treasures at that time."

Xiao Jie listened, but was not moved at all. He had seen a lot about the moral character of this group of NPCs, and he knew that one should not take what they said too seriously. They were just like people in real life, making empty promises and telling lies were always a new thing.

After waiting for a while and seeing no system prompt, I immediately despised you inwardly. Who are you trying to fool with your empty talk?

This was the first time Ramen Brother had encountered such a situation, and he was extremely excited: "Don't worry Granny Li, I, Ramen Brother, will risk it all today and will never take a step back."

I want to become an immortal and responded: "That's right, we must fight to the end today!"

“Okay, okay, you three warriors are indeed heroes. I’ll leave you all in charge. When the mermaids come, you three will take the lead in the battle. I’m old and weak. Although I still have some fighting power, I can’t stand a long fight, so I’ll just stand aside.

If it really doesn't work, I will take action myself. Please, the three of you, the mermaids should be here soon."

The four of them came to the edge of the lake, and sure enough, after waiting for a few minutes, the lake water suddenly rolled over, and the three men and the bear were all on high alert.

Each of them starts adding BUFF.

Xiao Jie first cast a Vajra Talisman on himself (armor +50, lasts 30 minutes).

A fine whetstone has been installed (giving your slashing weapons a sharpness value of +10).

I ate another piece of barbecue. (It increases your stamina recovery rate by 10% for 30 minutes).

"Remember my arrangement. Don't get close to the lake. You must lure the enemy to the shore before fighting. If you really can't win, you are allowed to retreat, but you must wait for my order. Do you understand?"

"Don't worry, Brother Feng."

"Brother Feng, just wait and see."

"Roar."

As soon as Xiao Jie finished his instructions, a large group of mermaids suddenly emerged from the water.

As expected, they were getting serious. In the previous three days, the number of mermaids that appeared had been gradually increasing. On the first day, they appeared in waves of two. On the second day, they appeared in waves of three. On the third day, they appeared in waves of four.

And today, eight mermaids suddenly appeared in search of pearls.

The three men and the bear retreated a few steps and waited until all the mermaids seeking pearls had reached shore.

"Chengxian, Xiong Da—go ahead!" I wanted to become an immortal, so I pounced over with Xiong Da.

I, who wanted to become an immortal, made a sweeping attack and hit three of them with the axe in my hand. Xiong Da swept across and also grabbed three of them.

The remaining two were left to Xiao Jie and Ramen Brother to deal with.

Xiao Jie glanced at Ramen Brother and said, "One for each of us, let's see who kills faster."

"Hahaha, come on!"

The two rushed towards their respective targets at the same time.

Wild Wind Sword Technique——One, two, three strikes, a whirlwind slash! Another one, two, three strikes.

Stunning attack——Wind combo! "Muda Muda Muda!"

Xiao Jie's sword cut into the flesh, chopping the mermaid pearl seeker into a bloody mess.

拉面哥的拳头狂风暴雨般的往那鲛人身上招呼,伤害数字密密麻麻的往外冒,-7-8-6-8-5-9!别看每一拳伤害都很低,架不住速度快啊。

puff!

Ah Da!

The two men finished the battle almost at the same time. At first glance, they seemed to be equally strong. But considering that Xiao Jie was only level 13, 4 levels lower than the other party, and he still had 20 free attribute points to add, the difference in combat power was obvious.

At this time, I Yuchengxian and Xiong Da were still fighting monsters. I Yuchengxian was okay, as his Nether Soul Iron Armor had amazing defensive power, and the Mermaid Pearl Seeker's grabs and bites were just scratching.

Big Bear was beaten badly, after all, he pulled three monsters of the same level at once. Fortunately, his health was high enough, so he could withstand it without much problem.

Xiao Jie and Ramen Brother rushed towards a mermaid with low health at the same time and quickly ended the battle. By the time the two of them killed their third monster, Wo Yu Cheng Xian and Xiong Da also dealt with the enemies in front of them.

"Speed ​​recovery!"

Xiao Jie fed Big Bear meat while recovering his strength.

Sure enough, within two minutes, there was another surge of waves on the lake, and the second wave of mermaids came rushing up.

This time, there are six mermaid pearl seekers and two mermaid piercers.

"Kill the Impaler first! Go!"

This wave was not difficult to solve, except that Ramen Brother lost some blood due to the first wave of javelins from the Mermaid Piercer.

The third wave, there are four mermaid pearl seekers, two mermaid piercers, and two mermaid barbarians. This wave is a bit difficult to fight.

By the time the fourth wave came, there were six strong monsters, and this wave was more difficult to deal with. The three had to retreat a distance to separate the monster formation and then defeat them one by one. Relying on the speed advantage, they killed the mermaid piercer first, and then dealt with the barbarians one by one.

By the fifth wave, all eight of them were strong monsters, a combination of four mermaid piercers and four mermaid barbarians.

This lineup is quite fierce.

Four mermaid piercers throw javelins together, causing extremely high damage. Even if the speed is slow, it will not affect the long-range attack at all.

The four mermaid soldiers were even more tough and strong.

Xiao Jie decisively asked Ramen Brother to lead away the four mermaid soldiers, and he and I tried to become immortals, while Xiong Da quickly cut off the back row.

After the four mermaid piercers were dealt with, a mermaid soldier broke away from Ramen Brother's hatred and rushed towards the hut.

Seeing the merman soldiers approaching the hut, Granny Li finally took action.

"Monster, if you want to hurt my grandson, you have to get past me first - prepare to die!"

Ghost Cry Sword Technique!
The two swords crossed, leaving behind afterimages, and the figures were like ghosts, swift and invisible.

Swish, swish, swish—puff, puff, puff!
The attack of the merman soldier was like slow motion, and could not touch Granny Li's clothes at all.

On the other hand, Granny Li, despite her advanced age, was very fierce when she chopped people down. Every blow of her sword drew blood and penetrated flesh. She moved around the mermaid soldiers while attacking crazily.

Before he finished using the Ghost Crying Sword Technique, the mermaid's health had already run out. In the end, he used a double-knife backstab to kill him easily.

This Flying Yaksha really lives up to its reputation.

Xiao Jie felt relieved. With a level 24 NPC to help him, he had nothing to be afraid of.

The three of them dealt with the remaining three barbarians one by one.

As soon as she sat down to meditate and recover her internal strength, Granny Li said with a serious expression.

"Be careful everyone, I feel like the enemy is getting serious."

Xiao Jie was suddenly startled when he heard this. This Granny Li was completely a mouthpiece for the system. If she said to spawn monsters, then they would spawn monsters. If she said not to spawn monsters, then they wouldn't spawn monsters. Since she said she was going to get serious, then it must be about to bring out a BOSS.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, the surface of the lake was seen churning, and a wave of eight mermaids came ashore again. That was not all, as a huge monster suddenly appeared.

It was a giant crab that was two meters tall and three meters wide. Several water plants and sea vines turned into reins, and on it stood an extremely strong mermaid knight, wearing armor made of shrimp and crab shells. He held the reins in one hand and waved a three-pronged fork in the other, looking very majestic.

Mermaid Cancer Knight (Mermaid Noble): Level 19 Elite, HP: 1300.
