64: Thorny Deer King

【Thorn Devil Deer King Lv32: This is a ruthless deer. If you encounter it, don't think about anything else, just run, run, and run as far as possible.】

“Holy crap.”

The moment he saw the information, Liu Yang cursed under his breath and immediately retreated without thinking.

There are no weak monsters with the suffix “King”.

Moreover, the Thorn Devil Deer King is Lv32, which is already beyond the trigger range of his Second Kill skill.

He retreated while looking back.

Seeing that the Thorn Devil Deer King had not noticed him, Liu Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Yang thought to himself, “Perhaps kings are all arrogant.”

“It's just…”

“It's really damn frustrating to have a boss right in front of me but not be able to kill it.”

Although he was very annoyed, Liu Yang knew his limits.

So he ran a long distance, preparing to find other small monsters to kill first.

He would farm equipment, level up, and then come back for it when he was stronger.

【Gale Wind Rabbit Lv8: A very weak creature, harmless to humans and animals, can be directly treated as food.】

A small rabbit appeared not far away.

Pfft!

Liu Yang rushed forward and swung his sword; he didn't even use his Second Kill skill, and the little rabbit was instantly dead.

【You decapitated the Gale Wind Rabbit with one sword, and the Gale Wind Rabbit died.】

【Congratulations on killing the Gale Wind Rabbit, you gained 4 wood, 3 steamed buns, 3 iron blocks, and 2 Spiritual Energy.】

“Trash!”

Liu Yang curled his lip in disdain, looking at the items dropped by the Gale Wind Rabbit.

“Killing small monsters is a waste of time. If I want good drops, I need to find monsters around Lv20.”

So, in the following time, Liu Yang avoided all low-level monsters he encountered.

Normally, he would have killed them casually if he had the chance.

But now, he was eagerly hoping to get something useful to kill the Thorn Devil Deer King, so he naturally wouldn't get too entangled with small monsters.

【Phoenix Crown Chick Lv7: A very beautiful chick in appearance. It would be a good choice to raise it as an ornamental animal.】

“A grand name, but it's actually trash. Not killing it.”

【Steel-Toothed Porcupine Lv9: It is said that pulling out the steel needles on their backs to use as embroidery needles works well.】

“The sun rises in the east, only I am undefeated. Too bad that’s not me.”

Liu Yang checked the red dots on the map one by one, all of them low-level Earth Palace Creatures.

He wondered if it was because this area belonged to the Thorn Devil Deer King's territory, so high-level monsters dared not come.

Perhaps they didn't dare to come, or those who dared to come were eaten.

After walking for a long time, a monster finally appeared that caught Liu Yang's eye.

【Armored Earth Dragon Lv21: I have a tough hide, strong limbs, and a tail. Don't think I'm slow; I'm very strong. So, seeing me, who only eats grass, do you have the heart to hurt me?】

“I do.”

Liu Yang silently recited in his heart, and then an Ice Arrow Technique was released.

Having learned from the Two-Tailed Wind Fox incident, Liu Yang dared not approach unfamiliar Earth Palace Creatures casually now.

Although he held a longsword, Liu Yang never considered himself a warrior, but rather a mage.

As a mage, long-range attacks are the correct combat stance.

【Your Ice Arrow Technique broke through the Armored Earth Dragon's hide, triggering the Second Kill skill, and the Armored Earth Dragon died.】

【Congratulations on killing the Armored Earth Dragon, you gained 16 iron blocks, 10 armored earth dragon eggs, and 2 Spiritual Energy.】

“Damn it, that's all it dropped?”

“No, wait, there seems to be something special.”

“armored earth dragon egg? Can it hatch a pet?”

Thinking of the good possibilities, Liu Yang eagerly took out the armored earth dragon egg to examine it.

【armored earth dragon egg: The young of the Armored Earth Dragon. It is the reverse scale of the Armored Earth Dragon Pack. Therefore, please keep it safe. If it breaks, just wait for the Armored Earth Dragon Pack's revenge. Honest creatures can be terrifying when angered.】

“Oh my god, that dangerous?”

Seeing the description, Liu Yang's hands trembled with fright, almost dropping the armored earth dragon egg.

Immediately after, a strange thought surfaced in his mind.

“By the way… I wonder if this Armored Earth Dragon Pack is stronger or weaker than the Thorn Devil Deer King.”

Once the thought arose, he could no longer suppress it.

“So, is it worth the risk?”

Liu Yang began to calculate.

“It's simple.”

“First, find a way to break the armored earth dragon egg and get the Thorn Devil Deer King covered in the egg fluid.”

“After that, just wait quietly for the Armored Earth Dragon Pack to arrive.”

“And there's only one thing to pay attention to.”

“That is, don't get targeted by the Thorn Devil Deer King as soon as you make a move.”

“After that, when the Armored Earth Dragon Pack arrives, everything will be easy.”

“If an accident really happens.”

“With the speed of the Ling Neng Flying Car and the display of monster locations on the map as backup, escaping shouldn't be a big problem.”

Feeling the plan was feasible, Liu Yang immediately put it into action.

But he didn't start directly; instead, he flew further out to explore the escape routes.

After determining which areas had more or fewer monsters, and weaker or stronger ones, he then headed towards the Thorn Devil Deer King.

At the same time.

On his way to the Thorn Devil Deer King, Liu Yang also caught two Gale Wind Rabbits and bound their mouths and legs with cloth strips.

He found it near the initial location where he first discovered the Thorn Devil Deer King.

He saw it was still leisurely catching various creatures and putting them into its mouth.

Liu Yang took out a small piece of burlap and made a small cloth pouch.

Then he put two armored earth dragon eggs into it and secured it to the Gale Wind Rabbit's abdomen.

Finally, he slowly approached the Thorn Devil Deer King.

When he felt the distance was right, Liu Yang threw the Gale Wind Rabbit with all his might towards the Thorn Devil Deer King.

As he threw the Gale Wind Rabbit, he also pulled off the cloth strip binding its mouth.

The Gale Wind Rabbit flew in mid-air, screaming in terror and struggling with its limbs.

Seemingly sensing prey entering its hunting range.

The Thorn Devil Deer King unhesitatingly wrapped itself around the Gale Wind Rabbit, immobilizing it.

At the same time, it also crushed the armored earth dragon eggs in the abdominal pouch.

The Thorn Devil Deer King didn't know that the rabbit had been
