freenovelworld Chapter 619 Scorpion Prince
Chapter 619 Scorpion Prince
With a loud bang and splattering venom, as the gargoyle flew over, a pair of pincers suddenly appeared in front of him.
Click! ! !
In a single, decisive strike, it caught his claws, which were poised to pounce, firmly in front of him.
What! ! !
The gargoyle was startled. He tried to exert force, but he was no match for his opponent. He tried to break free, but his opponent held him firmly, making it difficult for him to move.
What kind of monster is this?!
The fact that even a gargoyle, a monster, could be shocked suggests that the other party's identity is clearly not simple.
It was a humanoid creature covered in black armor, with a terrifying and ferocious face and a scorpion-like, segmented body, looking both cold and majestic.
Compared to their humanoid left hand, their right hand is an excessively thick giant pincer. In addition, there is a long scorpion tail connected to their tail on their back. The combination of the two adds to the creature's brutal appearance.
With such an appearance, he was naturally no nobody. They called him Scorpion Prince, one of the lesser demons of the Spider Cave. The reason why the Six-Eared Macaque was able to summon him was thanks to his equipment.
【Heart of Venom (4/4): After being attacked, the user can accumulate toxins within their body. Once a certain level is reached, consuming the toxins will summon several Scorpion Princes to assist in the battle.】
After collecting the entire Kunbi set, in addition to the original effects, a special set effect is added.
Through this effect, the Six-Eared Macaque summoned two Scorpion Princes to help him, freeing himself from the encirclement.
Boom! ! !
With a muffled thud, the two Scorpion Princes began their battle with the gargoyle. The Scorpion Princes first used their giant pincers to lock the gargoyle in place, and then seized an opportunity.
call out! ! ! !
The spikes that were originally behind him suddenly shot out and pierced the gargoyle's head.
boom! ! ! !
The scorpion's tail, one of the most distinctive features of a scorpion, has an obvious effect. Like a sharp spear, it can pierce the gargoyle's heart with a single blow.
boom! ! !
Broken stones flew through the air. The severely injured gargoyle could no longer maintain its shape. After swaying twice, it could only collapse helplessly to the ground.
"what!!!"
Seeing his gargoyles being pierced by scorpion tails, Kados could not hide his shock. Although these gargoyles were not very strong, they should not be so weak that they would die with a single stab!
All I can say is that these two scorpion monsters in front of us are just too strong.
Seeing this, Kados became even more wary of the two summoned monsters.
Not easy to deal with...
The battle was about to begin. Looking at the formations of both sides, Kados was extremely worried about the outcome of the battle, because he had a vague feeling that they would not be able to defeat the other side.
No, I need to call for reinforcements too...
Sensing something was wrong, Kados immediately gave his subordinate a wink, and at his instruction, the gargoyle quietly left.
Keep in mind, they weren't the only ones who wanted to kill this guy. Since they couldn't handle him, they'd call in someone even more powerful...

While the Six-Eared Macaque was fiercely fighting with the group of pursuers, Lin Tian had already shaken off Dok and started walking deeper into the castle.
Like the monsters, the rooms here are numbered. The earlier the room is, the more mysterious it is. Monsters with higher numbers can freely enter and exit rooms with lower numbers, but monsters with lower numbers cannot go to areas with higher numbers.
Therefore, even though Lin Tian is currently using Dia's disguise, he still needs to be very careful when infiltrating.
Based on the mission information, if we are looking for Duke Enkins' manuscripts, we need to find out where he lives.
Since he is the current owner of the castle, there is a high probability that his residence is located in a high-numbered area.
The castle's higher-numbered areas are basically from district one to ten, and these areas are not designed in a linear, vertical fashion, but rather in a circular, upward-reaching design.
In other words, Lin Tian had to go through each one one by one to reach the final numbered area.
Each region basically has its own high-ranking strongmen. Apart from Cuphead and Pumpkin Man who are already outside, Lin Tian still has to face at least eight formidable enemies in these ten regions.
If they fought one by one, it would take forever. Therefore, after realizing this, Lin Tian did not intend to follow the rules and fight them one by one.
hum~
Lin Tian let out a soft hum, then opened the system space again and took out a talisman.
Shrinking Earth Talisman:
Category: Special Items
Effect: The holder can inject a certain amount of mana and consume one Shrinking Talisman to perform this underground movement once. The user in the underground state cannot be observed or sensed by enemies. This state lasts until the Shrinking Talisman is consumed.
Note: Unless subjected to special or unexplained attacks (such as large-scale area-of-effect attacks, or unintentional, accidental hits), it will not exit its burrowing form.
Note: The rate at which talismans are consumed varies depending on the movement speed and the difficulty of the movement.
Note: If you can't proceed, know how to take a step back.
Leveling up by defeating monsters? No, no, no! I choose to speedrun...
The treasures drawn from the treasure pool weren't limited to the Six-Eared Puppet. The Shrinking Earth Talisman, used for escaping or infiltrating, was also an invaluable treasure for Lin Tian.
The drop rate for Shrinking Earth Talismans is not high. Even though he has drawn them many times, he only has 5 or 6 in his hand now.
However, its effect is still outstanding, and it can easily avoid a lot of trouble.
Lin Tian lightly pinched the ground with his hand, then infused it with magic power and gently chanted a spell. In a short while, the green talisman began to burn, and his body rapidly shrank. With a flash of golden light, he disappeared from the spot in the blink of an eye.
Boom, boom, boom! ! !
Without hesitation, Lin Tian, having used such a skill, immediately controlled his body to escape forward.

Monster Castle, District 3.
Inside a peculiar building, two figures, one tall and one short, are having a conversation.
The tall figure stood in the main seat. Although he appeared relatively calm, the worry between his brows was hard to conceal.
After a moment of silence, the tall man asked the short man:
"Has His Highness still not woken up?"
"No, I've been sleeping for days! Why?! Why is this happening?! My Your Highness, sob sob..."
Compared to the tall man, the short man's face was full of worry and anxiety. Unlike the tall man, he was not calm. What was happening in the kingdom was making him very uneasy, and he almost cried.
"What are we going to do now...?"
The short man might use his cleverness in ordinary times, but in situations like this, he can only rely on the tall man to take charge of the overall situation.
Seeing the short man's helpless expression, the tall man didn't share his confusion. After a moment of silence, he made a decision:
"Pass on my order: seal off the kingdom."
