Chapter 85 Petrified Lizard (Bonus Chapter on Monday)

Another discovery was that Richard had assumed he would gain energy points after killing the fishman warriors, since in his eyes, fish-headed, human-bodied creatures were no different from monsters.

To his surprise, killing all the murloc warriors, including the Green Scale Dual-Blade Murloc, did not give him any energy points.

Recalling the night elf he had killed in the underground caves of Spider Path, he realized that it hadn't contributed any energy to him either.

This puzzled him greatly.

However, although there was no gain in energy points, the skeleton soldiers he summoned would soon be promoted, which could be considered a benefit.

Moreover, seeing the Soul-Devouring Spider Egg becoming increasingly active, it is estimated that the day it hatches is not far off.

Ram and Courtney took the initiative to collect raw materials from the fishmen. Although their combat strength had been weakened for a long time, they were still quite efficient at doing these things.

Richard nodded repeatedly as he watched.

After resting for a while, the group began to search along the edge of the underground river.

This underground river also extends downwards gradually, meaning the deeper it goes, the farther it is from the surface, and the more branching paths it has, making it incredibly deep and mysterious.

At first, you could see fairly clear webbed footprints of the fish-man, but after passing through a bumpy area, you could no longer find any more footprints.

However, it is at these times that Ophelia shines.

Guided by Ophelia's plant senses, the team navigated three forks in the road.

What Richard and his companions didn't know was that they were getting closer and closer to a dangerous monster.

The petrified lizard prefers dark and damp environments. Although it had just smelled the scent of human flesh on the ground, it was still hesitant about whether to go and hunt it because it was a bit far away.

Unexpectedly, the food seemed to be getting closer and closer.

Wow! They even delivered food to my door!

The earth's surface is truly abundant!

It was starting to have second thoughts about returning to the Underdark.

Originally, it served as a war beast of the night elves, joining them in their attack on the surface. However, with the defeat of the night elves, it scattered and fled.

Fortunately, this area already had a network of interconnected spider tunnels, so it was quite at home. After drilling deeper underground, it discovered that there were many underground rivers and a dense network of waterways.

So it easily found a dark, damp, shallow rock crevice and lay in wait. An underground river was nearby; if any danger arose, it could immediately leap in and hide.

The two sides are getting closer and closer.

The petrified lizard was already waiting in a crevic on the rocky cliff in the shallows, ready to strike.

At this moment, Andrea, dressed in plate knight's armor, was leading the way with a knight's longsword in one hand and a steel shield in the other.

Although the petrified lizard has poor eyesight, it is not blind. Looking around, it noticed that the first of the food items it passed was "canned food".

It remembered that canned food was rather difficult to eat, requiring effort to open the can before one could taste the sweet meat.

Behind them were three people, and oh, there were "canned goods" again. These three were Richard, his sword-and-shield skeleton, and Ophelia.

So, the petrified lizard turned its attention to the last two. Hmm, the weakest one, no canned food. Hmm, this one looks very plump and juicy.

Lahm and Courteney, who were walking at the back, were whispering to each other.

Courtney said happily, "Ram, that was a really good haul. I didn't expect to get 24 points so easily by following Richard and the others."

"Yeah, right, weren't you saving up magic stones to buy a Prophet's Potion? This time you should be able to exchange for one directly with points. At this rate, we'll be able to gather the 100 points we need very soon," Ram said excitedly.

He knew that his girlfriend Courtney had always wanted to exchange for a Prophet's Potion to make up for her lack of aptitude.

Although they had longed for it for a long time, the price of the potion was too high. The two of them had saved up for a long time, but they were still far from enough.

But this time, there's a great chance!

This is why he risked his life to charge upwards during his recent battle with the mermen.

This is why, before Richard even spoke, he and Courtney took the initiative to help cut the raw materials and pack up the spoils.

Because he didn't want Richard and the others to think that he and Courtney were just a burden.

"Well, we were really lucky this time, running into Richard. By the way, Ram, what do you want to exchange for this time? Are you still looking for a low-level witchcraft item?" Courteney said with a smile, in a good mood.

"I haven't done that yet," Ram said just as he was about to speak.

Suddenly, a huge black shadow darted out from the side, abruptly ending the conversation!

The next second, Courtney screamed! "Ah!!!"

Wearing thin leather armor and with a voluptuous figure, Courtney became the first target of the petrified lizard's attack.

Courtney's thigh was being held firmly in the jaws of the petrified lizard, which was swinging it violently, attempting to tear her entire thigh off.

Instantly, blood splattered everywhere!

Richard and his two companions at the front of the group heard Courtney's scream and knew something was wrong!

Turning my head, I was greeted by this bloody scene.

Because Andrea was always in charge of clearing the way ahead and remained highly vigilant, she was actually the one with the fastest reaction speed in the entire team. She rushed forward immediately to try to save Courtney.

Ram stood there dumbfounded, staring in disbelief at the scene before him. But the next second, Ram, enraged, completely disregarded whether he could win or not, grabbed his knight's longsword, and slashed at the petrified lizard!

Andrea, who arrived late but arrived early, was the first member of the team to come into contact with the petrified lizard. However, after just one head-on clash with the petrified lizard, Andrea knew that the monster in front of him was not easy to deal with!

Andrea swung his shield, taking the brunt of the petrified lizard's headbutt headbutt.

Although he managed to block the petrified lizard's attack, the fact that his plate armor boots sank three inches into the ground with every step showed just how terrifying the monster's power was.

"Thump thump thump!" Andrea stumbled back four or five steps until her back slammed heavily against the rock wall before she finally regained her footing!

The petrified lizard was extremely annoyed. It had a headache, and it hadn't even thought of sneaking up on the tin can. How dare the tin can attack it!

Immediately following, a swift tail swing sent Andrea flying more than ten meters away before the afterimage of her tail was even left in everyone's sight.

This demonstrates its incredible speed and immense power!

Fortunately, Andrea blocked the way, and in the back and forth, the others were able to vaguely discern, through the dim light, that the dark figure in front of them seemed to be the petrified lizard marked with red in the School of Insignia crystal.

A petrified lizard with strength equivalent to a level three wizard apprentice!

Upon seeing Andrea being knocked away, Richard immediately sensed something was wrong!

Immediately order the skeleton soldiers guarding you to charge forward and make sure they entangle the petrified lizard.

Huh? Just then, the petrified lizard sensed that there was a piece of food near its feet that was tickling it, so it slashed at it with its claws.

With a series of cracking sounds, Ram was sent flying far away and lay on the ground, his body convulsing, his life hanging in the balance!

In an instant, Richard's team, which had been full of high morale, was thrown into disarray by the petrified lizard in front of them, with three of them injured.

This greatly angered Richard, and as the team leader, he felt deeply guilty for his dereliction of duty. He had originally wanted to keep it to himself, but now he could no longer hold back.
