Chapter 52: Hunting Soul Beasts: Attack of Wolf Hair Grass
Arrived at the entrance of the Soul Hunting Forest.
Romantina took out the adventurer's identification card and mission paper.
To enter the Soul Hunting Forest, in addition to the certificate issued by the Spirit Hall, the Adventurer's Certificate of the Adventure Guild and the relevant soul beast hunting mission paper can also be used as proof of entry into the Soul Hunting Forest.
"go in."
After the Spirit Hall guards standing guard at the entrance confirmed that everything was correct, they made way.
"Thank you."
Romantina was very polite.
It must be said that Romantina is the daughter of the deputy city lord after all. Even though she has a little problem of being fanciful, her outward etiquette is still very considerate and will not cause disgust in others.
“Completely different from the city lord’s son, Xiao Chenyu, in the academy.” Tang San also noticed this. He didn’t understand why the city lord’s son dared to act so arrogantly in the academy, while the deputy city lord’s daughter… did have some minor flaws in her character, but generally speaking she could still be described as well-educated and well-mannered.
"It's definitely different."
Xiao Wu agreed.
After hearing what the two said, Romantina said dissatisfiedly: "Don't confuse me with Xiao Chenyu. That guy is spoiled by his father... Humph, wait and see, he will definitely be in big trouble."
Zhou Qing agreed with this.
The nobles of Douluo Continent adopt a hereditary system. Judging from Xiao Chenyu's behavior of often bullying civilians and part-time soul masters in the Notting Junior Soul Master Academy, soul masters who graduate from the Junior Soul Master Academy in the future will have to stay in Notting City if they cannot enter the intermediate academy for further studies, and they are unlikely to be inclined to side with the city lord at that time.
However, judging from Romantina's performance, the deputy lord of Notting City can be described as being close to the people.
camouflage?
When it comes to deeds, one does not care about one’s heart. When it comes to one’s heart, there is no perfect person in the world.
Even if the other party's fundamental purpose is to remove the word "deputy" from the deputy city lord's title, it will not matter as long as it is beneficial to the majority of the residents of Notting City and can be disguised for a lifetime.
"Let's not talk about that." Romantina took out the map of the Soul Hunting Forest - the Soul Hunting Forest has been explored by ancient soul masters, and the gathering places of various soul beasts are marked on the map. You just need to follow the steps to find the habitat of the corresponding type of soul beast.
Stepping on dead branches and leaves and smelling the "fragrance" of decay in the soil, it only took half a day for Romantina to lead Zhou Qing and others to an open space covered with wolf's hair grass.
This open space is an irregular circle, with a wolf's hair grass about two meters tall growing in the center. Its leaves are thin, narrow, numerous and dense, with clusters of fluff on the top that resemble wolf's tails, mixed with small green particles the size of sesame seeds.
Those are the seeds of wolf grass.
"Look, that's the wolf's hair grass. It's the only wolf's hair grass in this forest that has become a soul beast. It's three or four hundred years old." Romantina introduced, "The wolf's hair grasses around here are all the result of its seeds falling off and sprouting, but they are not soul beasts. They are just ordinary plants. Even if they die, they won't produce soul rings."
"know."
Tang San responded, picked up the dagger and prepared to move forward.
But he was stopped by Romantina, who said seriously: "Although wolf hair grass has no attacking ability, there may be other small animals hidden in this wolf hair grass space, such as ants, voles, snakes, etc. There may also be other animal spirit beasts that live for ten years. I will explore the way for you first."
She picked up the Huangwu staff and strode into the wolf-hair grass that was nearly 50 centimeters high. She waved the staff wildly and split the wolf-hair grass in front of her.
For ordinary creatures and small ten-year-old soul beasts, they will be scared and run away at the slightest disturbance.
Romantina's method of "startling the enemy by stirring up trouble" is indeed very appropriate in this situation.
For some reason, Zhou Qing always felt that Romantina had other purposes.
as predicted!
After Romantina opened a path to the three or four hundred year old wolf's hair grass, she actually hit it directly with a stick.
Swish!
The wolf's hair grass was startled, and its leaves and fluff began to tremble and lash towards Romantina.
Wolf's hair grass has no attacking ability. It does not mean that wolf's hair grass cannot attack, but that its attack is very gentle. It uses its leaves to wrap around passing creatures, and then continuously slaps them with a ball of fluff similar to wolf's hair.
The wolf hair grass's entanglement ability is not strong. Theoretically, even if it becomes a soul beast, a six-year-old child without any soul power can break free, but the whipping of the wolf hair fluff ball is very painful... Well, it can't be said to be painful. It can only be said that it is between pain and itchiness.
The researchers at the Spirit Hall still haven't figured out the use of this ability of wolf's hair grass, and none of the soul masters who have obtained wolf's hair grass soul rings have this ability.
But Zhou Qing, who comes from modern society, understands the behavior of wolf grass.
This is a survival instinct!
Use leaves to tie up passing creatures, and then repeatedly hit them with a ball of wolf hair, so that the seeds inside can be transferred to the creature's fur or even skin.
When passing creatures break free from the leaves and escape far away, they carry the seeds to more distant lands, thus continuing their own lives.
This is the instinct of wolf's hair grass to spread its seeds, and naturally it will not be inherited by soul masters. After all, martial souls do not need to rely on such a method to sow.
At this time, Romantina was tied up with wolf hair grass and was constantly beaten. Her clothes were covered with green grass seeds, and her exposed skin was also covered with irregular hairs.
"Ah~"
"Oh~"
Romantina made a meaningless cry, her face flushed. When she saw Zhou Qing and the others approaching, she immediately shouted, "Don't come over! This wolf grass is very dangerous! Let me bear it alone! I can do it! Oh~ Yeah~"
After saying that, Romantina tore off the leaves with one hand and took off her armor...
The wolf's hair grass felt its leaves were broken, and instinctively realized that its "prey" was about to escape, so it waved its hair faster, wanting to get as many of its grass seeds as possible on Romantina's body...
Romantina's body moved back and forth with the beating of the wolf's hair grass!
It is truly a magnificent wave that sees mountains from the front and peaks from the side!
Up and down!
Zhou Qing blushed.
Tang San turned his head away.
And Xiao Wu, she lowered her head, saw the back of her feet, and murmured: "I thought Romantina was only perverted in her words and body movements, but I didn't expect there was something even more perverted... No wonder other adventurers in the Notting Guild didn't dare to get close to Romantina."
Such a crazy look!
Even soul beasts are not spared!
I guess even a lustful ghost would only dare to watch from afar and would not dare to play with it up close... After all, it is still unknown who will play with whom at that time.
It was already evening, and when it was completely dark, Romantina was finally released by Wolf Hair Grass. She lay down on a nearby bush of Wolf Hair Grass, breathing heavily, her chest heaving, her face slightly flushed for a long time.
Looking at the three or four hundred year old wolf's hair grass, it seemed to be lacking water. The originally straight leaves were now wilted, without any vitality at all.
"I suddenly don't want this wolf's hair grass anymore."
