Elemental Light Mage

Chapter 445 1 misunderstanding

Xi Yeming secretly estimated that with the hardness of the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion, it should not be difficult to break through the ice wall. He must not let this monster break through the ice wall and threaten those innocent villagers.

"This is the right move for you. Wood Magic: Sea of ​​Trees Advent!"

Following Xi Yeming's roar, many thick trees suddenly emerged from the ground. These trees were like a green barrier, rising quickly from the ground and blocking the way of the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion.

Not only that, these trees seemed to have life, tightly wrapping around the body of the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion, hanging it high up and lifting it off the ground.

Xi Yeming felt a little relieved when he saw the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion that was bound by the Sea of ​​Trees.

Although he was not sure whether this move could cause substantial damage to the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion, at least its movements were restricted now and it could no longer pose a threat to the ice wall and the villagers.

Seeing this, Xi Yeming felt that the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion was tied so tightly that it should have lost the ability to resist.

So, he stepped forward cautiously, trying to get closer to the bound monster.

However, just as he took a few steps, suddenly, a huge cylinder fell from the sky and hit him straight in front of him.

Xi Yeming was startled and quickly took two steps back, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow.

"What's happening here?"

Xi Yeming looked at the scene in front of him in shock, his heart full of doubts.

He originally thought that the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion had been completely restrained by the Sea of ​​Trees, so how could it suddenly launch such an attack?

"Could it be that... it can determine the location of other creatures through vibration?" Xi Yeming suddenly realized this, and his heart sank.

He had always thought that the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion was just an ordinary dirt-eating monster, but he didn't expect it to have such abilities. It was not mentioned in the textbooks.

No matter what, Xi Yeming knew that he had to be extremely careful now. What just fell down was just the tail of the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion. If he was stung by its tail stinger, the consequences would be disastrous.

The gravity magician Xi Yeming left the ground and hovered around the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion to observe it. As a result, he witnessed something like a stick behind the right pincer of the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion.

"This is..." Xi Yeming looked at the black stick in his hand with suspicion. Its surface was as smooth as a mirror, without any texture or flaws, as if it was carved from a whole piece of black jade.

At the moment he grasped the stick, the originally quiet Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion suddenly seemed to be greatly stimulated, and began to shake its body wildly, and its huge scorpion pincers kept opening and closing, making a clicking sound, as if it was struggling in pain.

Seeing this, Xi Yeming suddenly understood something in his heart. He murmured, "So that's why. You are troubled by this."

He gripped the black stick tightly, then used all his strength to pull it hard, trying to pull it out of the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion's body.

However, the black stick seemed to be deeply rooted in the scorpion's body and no matter how hard Xi Yeming tried, it did not move at all.

But Xi Yeming did not give up. He gritted his teeth and continued to exert force. Finally, after some hard work, he finally pulled the black stick out of the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion's body.

As the black stick was pulled out, a stream of black and blue blood gushed out like a fountain, splashing onto Xi Yeming's clothes.

He didn't care about it at all, and quickly stretched out his right hand and cast healing magic to heal the wound of the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion.

At the same time, he picked up the black stick with his left hand and looked at it carefully.

The material of this black stick is very strange, and Xi Yeming can't even identify what it is made of.

This material is neither like metal, nor like wood, nor like ceramics or glass. It does not match any known material taught in the academy.

Xi Yeming couldn't help but wonder, where did this black stick come from? Why did it have such a big impact on the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion?

Just as he was thinking about these questions, the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion on the other side seemed to understand what Xi Yeming was doing.

It slowly lowered its tail spike that was originally raised high and ready to attack. It no longer showed hostility towards Xi Yeming, but lay quietly on the tree roots, accepting the magical healing.

When the villagers behind him saw this scene, they all poked their heads out, curiously looking at how the prince was going to deal with the giant scorpion.

"Your Highness, why are you treating this beast?" The village chief hurried over with a hunched back and asked in a loud voice.

"what?"

"Why did your highness heal the scorpion?"

"what's up?"

"do not know."

Hearing these words, the villagers were in an uproar, whispering to each other, and the originally quiet village suddenly became noisy.

Their faces were filled with confusion and puzzlement, as if there was a dark cloud hanging over their heads, making them feel depressed and uneasy.

Xi Yeming watched all this with an expressionless face. He threw the black stick away like garbage.

With a "bang", the black stick penetrated deeply into the ground in front of the village chief, leaving several deep cracks on the hard ground, as if it had been struck by lightning.

"Do you know why the giant scorpion attacks?"

This sudden scene made the village chief gasp. He stared at the black stick in front of him with wide eyes, his heart filled with fear and dread. Facing Xi Yeming's question, he did not dare to hide anything and quickly replied, "No, I don't know."

Xi Yeming's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile.

His voice was calm and low, yet it carried an irresistible majesty: "The black stick pierced into the giant scorpion's claws, so it was in so much pain that it wanted to come to the village to seek help from humans. However, the impact of the black stick seems to be a bit too great."

His explanation was simple and clear, and after listening to it, the villagers suddenly understood.

It turned out that the giant scorpion did not come to the village to look for food, but came to the village because it was injured. Thinking of this, the fear in their hearts subsided a little, but their awe of Xi Yeming increased a little.

"What if this beast continues to harass the village afterwards?"

The village chief's worries are not groundless. The monsters that most people have seen are simply labeled as those that attack humans, so it is not surprising that they have such concerns.

"I can't leave for a while. If the Gladiolus Crystal Scorpion harasses the village again, I will really kill it."
