Shao Xuan was running back with the stone box containing the Green Thief in his arms. He had planned to run away from the battlefield, as he knew that he would only be a burden if he stayed there. However, after a few steps, he suddenly felt a sense of danger. With his special vision, he saw another green object that looked like a Fire Spear approaching him from the ground.
Since he woke up this morning, Shao Xuan found that all the plants in his vision were green. However, most of them were pale green, almost transparent. But the Fire Spear was darker in color.
The road ahead was blocked. Shao Xuan wanted to run in another direction, but he found that both the Fire Spear and the one that appeared now seemed to be targeting him.
Was it for the Green Thief?
Or was it for Shao Xuan?
No matter whether the Fire Spear was targeting Shao Xuan himself or the stone box containing the Green Thief, Shao Xuan could not deal with it, so he had to retreat.
Shao Xuan quickened his pace as he touched the animal skin bag hanging on his waist.
Ta was confident that he could deal with one Fire Spear quickly. Even if he could not kill it, he could at least force it to retreat. But now there was another one, and both Fire Spears were aggressive. It was difficult to deal with them.
Ta cut off a part of the vine. He did not have time to wipe off the "blood" on his face. He shouted to the others, "Half of you go and deal with the other one!"
But it was impossible to deal with the two Fire Spears in a short time with only Ta and the others. At the same time, they were worried that there might be a third or a fourth Fire Spear. In that case, would they have to give up this place?
They were unwilling to give up, but they did not slow down at all. They were a little impatient.
What was the most important thing for a plant?
The root system!
However, these plants that could run freely knew how to protect their roots well. They even buried their roots deep underground, making it difficult to attack their roots. Especially for a Fire Spear, which was as fierce as a predator. If you attacked its weak point and could not kill it with one blow, you would be the one to die. Unfortunately, no one had the confidence to do so. Even Ta and the others who often fought with the Fire Spear would either avoid it or take it head-on.
While Ta and the others were trying to figure out a way to force the two Fire Lances back, a magnified image of the noose had already formed in Shao Xuan's mind. There wasn't enough thread, so he could only make an incomplete lock.
He couldn't just rely on Ta and the rest now. Shao Xuan wanted to contribute too. After all, they were a team. Success and failure were linked together. According to Shao Xuan's calculation of the success rate, the incomplete trap was worth a try.
Shao Xuan had never tried such a large-scale trap before, so he didn't know how effective it would be. After all, expectations were not necessarily the same as reality. But no matter what the effect was, as long as it had a little effect, it was fine. The current situation was not optimistic, and in a place like this, it was best to end the battle quickly.
Shao Xuan held the stone box with one arm, while the other hand quickly took out a spearhead dart from the animal skin bag and pulled out a white thread.
Even though he only used one hand, he was still very flexible. His fingers moved quickly, and the white thread had already wrapped tightly around the tail of the spearhead dart.
Whoosh!
After dodging the vines, Shao Xuan threw the dart out with all his strength. But it was not aimed at the Fire Spear's vines, but at a point on the ground.
The body of the dart, which was thrown out with great strength, pierced into the ground.
The first point was set, and then the second point was ready.
With Ta and the others restraining the Fire Spear, Shao Xuan could deal with it more easily. The position of his dodging was also very clever. He jumped up, fell down, and moved back and forth in succession, as if there was no pattern. But every time he dodged in a panic, it was actually carefully calculated. Everything was done in an instant.
In the rumbling sound, the flaming red vines were swinging wildly, and countless stones and soil were lifted up from the ground by the vines. The sound of tree trunks being broken, soil flying, branches snapping, and vines being chopped all mixed together. The sound of the spearhead dart hitting the tree trunks, the ground, and the vines was too weak in this battlefield. Shao Xuan moved very fast, and it was hard to see what he was doing without careful observation.
Shao Xuan's five fingers moved quickly, and his feet were not slow either. Every time he reached a preset point, he would complete a knot with a wave of his hand, because all the knots and connecting the nodes had to be completed in an instant. The muscles on his arms twitched continuously, and the totemic power in his body was running to the extreme, roaring and surging in every meridian.
If one looked carefully, one would find that there was a layer of surging airflow around the arm where Shao Xuan was setting the noose.
Shao Xuan held the stone box and ran around two Fire Spears that were close to him.
Fast! Fast! Fast!
Setting a trap had to be fast, especially when it was set on the spot like this. Any extra movement of the prey would cause unexpected changes.
In a few seconds, Shao Xuan had finished setting up the periphery of the noose, and there was only one more step left.
Shao Xuan stepped on the vines with great force, and jumped away before the hairs wrapped around his ankles.
"Xuan, what are you doing?!"
"Hey, don't run around!"
Seeing Shao Xuan running around the periphery, Tuo and the others were very confused. Shouldn't he be hiding far away?
"It wants to steal the Green Thief!!" Shao Xuan roared.
Steal the Green Thief? The Fire Spear's target was the Green Thief?!
Before anyone could say anything, Shao Xuan shouted again, "I've set up a trap. Everyone, be careful to stay away from it!"
As he spoke, Shao Xuan rushed between the two Fire Spears.
"Stop! Xuan, what are you doing?! "Ta roared angrily.
The crossfire between the two Fire Spears was not strong. Obviously, the two Fire Spears had no intention of fighting each other. That was why Shao Xuan dared to pass through them directly. Besides, with Shao Xuan's current speed, although he could not resist the Fire Spears, he could still dodge.
Shao Xuan stepped on the vines and jumped up.
His hands moved so fast that they seemed to disappear. The spearhead darts flew in several directions, and the knots were tied up in a flash while he was jumping.
The trap was complete!!
Shao Xuan did not stop.
Shao Xuan, who was holding the stone box, was a bait. No matter where he ran, the two Fire Spears would attack him. Because of that, Ta and the others followed behind Shao Xuan to block most of the attacks.
A vine shot from below. Shao Xuan did not dodge, but blocked it with his teeth knife.
Bang!
A sound like rocks colliding with each other was heard.
Tuo and the others saw Shao Xuan being whipped into the air.
Keke, who was closest to Shao Xuan, wanted to rescue Shao Xuan. If no one picked him up, Shao Xuan would fall directly to the ground.
However, Keke was shocked to find that the person who was whipped into the air and fell back down in a parabola, stopped somewhere in the air.
Yes, he stopped there.
He was standing steadily.
At the same time, the others seemed to hear some creaking sounds like wood being tightened.
Not only Keke, but also Ta and the others opened their eyes wide. However, when they looked carefully, they found that Shao Xuan was not standing there in the air, but on a white line.
When did the white line appear there?
The crowd wasn't sure, but when they thought of what Shao Xuan said about "setting a trap", it seemed like it might be useful.
"Everyone, leave! Tuo, Keke, Suo, step back! "Shao Xuan asked the people in the circle to leave. Although it might not hurt anyone, it was better to be safe than sorry.
Standing on the white line, the trap in Shao Xuan's mind was very clear.
Several vines shot at him, and at least one of them would fall into the trap.
Although the two Fire Lances were separated, half of them were in the trap set by Shao Xuan. If any of the vines fell into the trap, it would trigger a series of lasso reactions. It was a chain trap.
Shao Xuan felt that everything around him seemed to slow down, and time seemed to be stuck. Among the things he could see, there were only a few vines shooting at him, and some "coils" that others could not see clearly, but were getting clearer and clearer in his field of vision. Other than that, everything else was blurred into the background.
Closer!
It was getting closer!
One of the vines was twisting, and the hairs on it were flashing like flames. It went through the "coils" in Shao Xuan's field of vision.
It fell into the trap!
