Chapter 68

The team members behind Sam were also shocked, especially the young man was extremely surprised in his mind who had complained about Locke’s arrogance.

At this time, he was also a little grateful. Fortunately, he only complained a few words and did not say anything excessive. If he offended Locke, he would be miserable.

The battle between Locke and the poisonous scorpion with black stripes had reached a white-hot stage.

Boom!

Locke jumped back and avoided the pincers of the poisonous scorpion with black stripes. A huge hole was made on the ground where he had stood before.

Before the poisonous scorpion’s pincers were pulled out from the ground.

Now was the time!

Locke, who was retreating, instantly found the flaw of the poisonous scorpion. He kicked on the ancient tree behind him, and with the reaction force of the ancient tree, shot towards the poisonous scorpion like a cannonball.

Puff~

After a flash of sword light, the second pair of feet on the left side of the poisonous scorpion was cut off by Locke.

“Ouch!”

The poisonous scorpion howled painfully. Its voice was deafening. It wished it could tear Locke into pieces.

Sam and the others covered their ears with their hands and looked painful. They were almost knocked out by the powerful sound wave.

Looking at the roaring poisonous scorpion, Locke frowned and raised his long sword. “It’s too noisy. It seems that I need to kill you as soon as possible.”

Clang~

Locke cut the poisonous scorpion’s shell with his long sword. However, the sharp sword was directly shaken away by the hard shell of the poisonous scorpion.

Seeing that he couldn’t break the defense of the poisonous scorpion, Locke had to step back.

Tsk, it was so defensive. Looking at the hard shell with only a sword mark left, Locke was also a little surprised.

At the same time, a big pincer of the poisonous scorpion had already smashed towards Locke. Locke had no time to change the direction in the air, so he could only hold the sword horizontally in front of his chest to resist the attack.

Bang~

Although there was a long sword in front of Locke’s chest, he was still thrown out and smashed into the distance, raising a cloud of dust.

Seeing that Locke was knocked away, Sam’s and others’ hearts rose to their throats. They clenched their fists subconsciously and felt nervous for Locke.

This was a frontal attack from the level-4 magical beast. Even an ordinary level-4 practitioner would be injured.

When the dust dispersed, they saw Locke.

What shocked them was that Locke was completely unharmed except for the messy clothes.

Seeing that Locke was safe and sound, everyone was relieved. At this moment, Locke was their only life-saving straw!

When he came to his senses, Sam reminded him loudly, “Sir, the poisonous scorpion has a strong defense. Let’s retreat first.”

After knowing Locke’s strength, Sam called Locke “sir” instead of “little brother”.

They could see that although Locke was also very powerful, he couldn’t defeat the poisonous scorpion of level 4 at once. If continuing to fight, they would be doomed if they attracted other powerful magical beasts.

“Step back, or I’ll hurt you.”

Locke shook his arms, stretched himself, and dusted himself. “Your shell is really thick. It seems that I have to be serious.”

As he spoke, the small universe in Locke’s body began to rapidly revolve, and purple magic attached to the long sword.

Seeing that Locke wanted to continue the fight, Sam sighed in his heart and had to retreat as Locke said.

Bang~

After dodging the pincers and stings of the poisonous scorpion, Locke held his long sword and hacked at it.

Crack!

Under everyone’s shocked gaze, a crack unexpectedly appeared on the hard defensive shell of the poisonous scorpion!

The poisonous scorpion waved its pincers and sting, but Locke dodged it easily. At this time, Locke’s speed was extremely fast, and he slashed at the outer shell of the poisonous scorpion a few more times.

Crack! Crack!

Broken!

Under the powerful attack of Locke, the shell of the poisonous scorpion broke into pieces!

He was really so powerful!

Looking at the shell that was gradually falling off, Sam and the others took a deep breath and felt that their minds were in a mess.

The poisonous scorpion was also slightly stunned as if it did not believe that the defense that it was proud of was blocked in this way.

After a short period of distraction, the poisonous scorpion began to feel fear in its eyes. The human in front of him was stronger than it!

Without any hesitation, it hurriedly fled in the opposite direction of Locke.

The poisonous scorpion fled in the direction of their camp.

Looking at the fleeing poisonous scorpion, Locke muttered to himself, “I can’t let you go there.”

As he spoke, his body glowed with a faint purple light. The divine power within his body was poured out without reservation and Locke poured it into the long sword in his hand.

The long sword emitted a bright light, which seemed to contain terrifying power.

After pouring all his strength into the long sword, Locke slashed at the poisonous scorpion with one move.

Boom!

The purple sword light, with the power to destroy heaven and earth, slashed in the direction of the poisonous scorpion. Wherever the sword light passed, everything cracked.

Sensing the powerful energy fluctuations behind it, the poisonous scorpion, which was fleeing, had a strong fear in its heart and crazily fled in another direction. It knew that if it was attacked by this energy, it would definitely die.

However, the speed of the sword light was very fast. In an instant, it arrived in front of the poisonous scorpion. Looking at the sword light, the poisonous scorpion’s eyes were incomparably terrified.

Boom!

An earth-shaking explosion occurred at the location of the poisonous scorpion.

The huge impact swept the stones around them away, and a few meters thick ancient trees were also broken.

A minute later, everything returned to peace.

There were only a few broken limbs and arms on the position of the poisonous scorpion, and the other bodies had been annihilated in the sword light.

Swoosh~

Locke breathed a sigh of relief and his face turned pale. The blow just now had drained all the divine power in his body.

Was this young man really a human?

Even if a person started to practice from the womb, he might not be so strong!

Sam and the others stood still like woods, and their brains had lost the ability to think.

“Damn it!”

Locke seemed to think of something and his face changed. He turned to Sam and the others and said, “I have something important to do and need to go first. This is not a place to stay for a long time. My camp is not far away. If you want, you can come to the camp to heal yourselves.”

Then Locke rushed to the camp.

Hearing Locke’s words, Sam and the others came to their senses. They knew that it was not the right time to be surprised, so they hurried to the direction where Locke had left.

Along the way, Sam and the others were very careful. Judging from Locke’s anxious expression just now, they guessed that something big might have happened in Locke’s camp.

Was there a sneak attack from magical beasts? Or what happened to the delicate and beautiful girl next to Locke?

Within two hundred meters, Sam and others saw a fire. However, what confused them was that the whole camp was abnormally quiet except for the sound of burning woods.

Then they looked at Locke, who was holding a pile of charred stuff with a helpless expression on his face. The beautiful girl beside him also looked helpless, as if it was none of her business.

Sam looked at the things in Locke’s hands carefully.

This thing… Seemed to be roasted meat?

So the important thing Locke just said was that the meat was scorched?

When they saw the red wine on the table, Sam and the others seemed to have received the violent attack, and an extremely absurd idea arose in their hearts.

These two… Were they on vacation here?
