After the blind mountain troll finished venting, the surrounding tens of metres was a mess. It plopped its butt into the muddy water, panting heavily. Like an old bellows, its sound was amplified by ten times. Furthermore, the mountain troll's thick grey skin was damaged from its previous frenzy. Especially its elbows, knees and other areas, its flesh was clearly exposed. If one were to add in the injuries caused by the Symbiosis sect members' frenzied attacks, then its body would be covered in cuts and bruises.
Qiao Gun first went to check on the unconscious Diaz, confirming that his head was severely injured and wouldn't be able to wake up in a short period of time. He then stood up, his eyes flashing with an indescribable radiance. This change was so sudden, even Gale who was by his side suddenly had a strange feeling. It was as though the boss beside him had suddenly changed into a different person.
"Now is our golden opportunity!" Qiao Gun ran to the front, he clenched his fist and waved it around. "This damned monster is completely blind. Now with the wind and rain, the noise is heavy. We only need one person to attack, the other to create noise from the side. Then naturally the risk will be reduced to the minimum!"
Although Qiao Gun's words were extremely passionate, Gale couldn't help but recall the scene of his 3 dead comrades being turned into meat paste, and the tragic fate of being digested by the troll's stomach. Just thinking about it made him shudder, he couldn't help but mumble.
"Boss ….. why not wait a little longer? This monster is blind, it might even bleed to death. "
Qiao Gun's expression instantly turned gloomy, furiously shouting.
"Wait a little longer? You idiot, the mountain troll is after all a legendary creature, its adaptability is extremely strong. Now it's still in a state of panic due to its blindness, once it gets used to this state and learns to use its ears to search for enemies, then if we want to kill it, we'll have to risk our lives. I'll go first! When I come back, shout loudly to disturb its hearing. "
At present, Qiao Gun finally took out his own close combat weapon, a rather sharp iron hook. It seemed to be flickering with a deep blue glow. This was something Sheyan had seen many times in the previous Pirates of the Caribbean world. Many pirates with crippled limbs would install iron hooks or wooden legs on their limbs, making them look no different from a normal person. However, it was rare to see a dark blue iron hook.
Qiao Gun lowered his body, the iron hook in his hand flashed with a deep blue glow in the cold rain. He directly charged towards the panting gigantic monster. He brandished his iron hook, a chilling glint flashed as the razor-sharp hook pierced into the troll's right ankle. With a ferocious tug, a huge chunk of flesh was sliced off.
The troll shrieked in agony as though it was scalded by fire. It grimaced in pain as it clawed towards the source of the injury. But at the same time Qiao Gun had already rolled away, at the same time Gale shouted a few times to cover up Qiao Gun's escape. In the end, the mountain troll's next few frenzied attacks only caused mud to splatter everywhere. It was completely useless!
"You go." Qiao Gun's entire body was covered in mud, looking extremely miserable. His eyes revealed an indescribable frenzy and excitement. He wiped his iron hook, glaring fiercely at Gale. Obviously, he didn't allow Gale to decline. Under the pressure of the situation, Gale's eyes revealed an ominous glint. He pulled out a sharp sawtooth military knife and waited for the troll to sit down to catch its breath before slowly creeping forward. He then ferociously stabbed towards the wound caused by Qiao Gun, and forcefully twisted!
This incomparably vicious stab caused the troll to shriek miserably. The tendons and blood vessels at the troll's ankle were all severed. Gale didn't even take the time to pull out his knife. He simply let go of the knife and rolled away. Qiao Gun simultaneously shouted loudly to disrupt the troll's hearing. Thus, Gale's first dodge was rather thrilling. The second time the troll missed and that sawtooth military knife fell out of the troll's wound. Gale was able to pick it up in time and escaped unscathed.
Under such circumstances, the mountain troll was continuously attacked by the two, slowly reaping its life. Yet the mountain troll had nowhere to display its brute strength. Towards the end, its miserable cries were weak and feeble. Especially at its right ankle, Qiao Gun had been aiming for a spot to attack. So much so that its bones were exposed, and even standing up was wobbly.
Of course, as the troll gradually adapted to its blinded state, its counterattack became more and more threatening. Firstly, Qiao Gun wasn't able to dodge in time and was sent flying. Although his injuries weren't heavy, he still broke out in cold sweat. Gale was even kicked by the troll after attacking. Blood spurted out from his mouth as mud covered his face. His health plummeted from 70% to 30%!
Currently, both parties were exhausted. But the difference was that the two members of the Symbiosis sect could still slowly stall for time, waiting for their medicine and recovery items to cool down before recovering their health. Whereas the troll could only rely on its own recovery ability to slowly gasp for breath. Thus, Qiao Gun and Gale held the advantage in terms of attrition. But at this moment, Qiao Gun waited for Gale to recover before unyieldingly saying.
"Let's attack its ankle one last time. I've already calculated, if we attack once more, its right leg will be completely crippled! Immediately! "
Gale wiped off the blood flowing out from his mouth. Originally he wanted to say something, but he forcefully endured it. Because he saw Qiao Gun's frenzied and excited expression, it was as though he had transformed into a different person. He knew that no matter what he said, Qiao Gun wouldn't change his mind! Furthermore, the allure of slaying a legendary creature was extremely enticing. He directly charged forward with red eyes.
The muddy water beneath his feet was icy cold, and the indescribable stench of the troll's bodily fluids assailed his nostrils. The wounds on his body were also faintly aching. But Gale felt that his timing, speed and strength was perfect. He had cleverly grasped the moment the troll revealed itself!
The razor-sharp sawtooth blade deeply cut into the greyish white tendons. With a forceful tug, the incomparably tough elastic tendons were sliced apart. "Thump thump thump" sounds caused Gale to be incomparably excited. Then he shrunk his body, sucked in his abdomen, bent his waist and exerted his strength, pouncing towards the left. Although this action produced a "Pa Pa" sound upon contact with the muddy ground, it was the fastest way to leave the troll's vicinity. Furthermore, with Qiao Gun's loud shouts as a cover, the newly blinded troll definitely wouldn't be able to react in time!
After pouncing out, Gale's entire body had completely relaxed. He even had a carefree feeling of "It's finally over". However, he still felt uneasy. It was as though he had forgotten to lock the door when he left home, or forgot to bring along a set of dishes, or forgot to add salt when he was frying. Yet he couldn't recall what he was missing. Until he realized that the troll's incomparably ferocious attacks were like a shadow following closely behind him. Only then did he realise where the problem was … …
Shouts!
Motherf * cker, that bastard Qiao Gun actually didn't shout to protect himself!
Currently, although the troll's legs were heavily injured, it had gradually adapted to the blind darkness. Thus, even though the rain was pouring down, as long as one listened carefully, the sounds of Gale's tumbling and crawling were extremely easy to discern. After being suppressed for such a long time, the venomous hatred in its heart was finally unleashed. It howled mournfully as it pounced towards Gale's direction.
At this moment of life and death, Gale frantically screamed. His heart was filled with an intense unwillingness and anger from being betrayed. He actually exploded out with the potential he had before his death. Both his hands dug into the muddy water, even his fingernails were bleeding profusely. Borrowing the force of this desperate dig, he scuttled towards a nearby thicket. If he was able to successfully escape there, undoubtedly the sounds he made would be much softer and his chances of survival would greatly increase.
Yet in front of him, a person appeared!
Qiao Gun!
Qiao Gun's face was stupefied. His eyes contained traces of guilt, but more than that, it was a fanaticism that had been suppressed for a long time!
Even though both of them belonged to the Symbiosis sect, mutual attacks wouldn't cause any harm. They had to first declare war before confirming it, and initiating an attack would have to pay a disastrous price. But this didn't mean that members of the Symbiosis sect could violate the laws of physics, passing through each other as though they didn't exist.
Thus, Gale was sent flying by Qiao Gun, but his charging speed was halted. The mountain troll's huge foot whistled down, trampling Gale's lower body into the muddy water from mid-air. An intense pain transmitted through his body, Gale screamed miserably as he was sent flying by the troll's foot. Amidst the whistling of the wind, he could only feel his surroundings turning into a blur. When he landed, his vision turned black and he entered a state of near death, not knowing anything anymore.
Even though the troll looked clumsy and stupid, it had already grasped a set of hunting techniques. After the previous stomp and kick, it would have pounced forward. Yet at this moment, its right ankle had suffered a severe injury. Just as it was about to leap forward, an intense pain transmitted from its right leg. It was completely unable to exert any strength, as its massive and heavy body tumbled forward, before crashing down miserably. The mountain troll released a mournful hiss, as it thrashed about violently in the muddy water, unable to stand up.
Witnessing this scene, Qiao Gun faced the sky and laughed maniacally. His laughter was sharp, piercing one's eardrums. His laughter was filled with satisfaction and relief. Not far away, the troll heard his laughter and tried its best to move over. But its right ankle bone had already been crushed by its own weight, completely unable to exert any strength. It could only howl miserably!
Suddenly, Qiao Gun's laughter came to a halt! He felt as though his neck had been snapped abruptly. His face turned extremely ugly, and his eyes were filled with an indescribable fear and anger. He looked towards the dark forest on his right, and said word by word, "You're right."
"Come out, come out."
Within the pitch black forest, a person slowly walked out. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
