This kind of monster is at level 2-3, and is considered to be a relatively difficult monster to deal with in the mortal realm.

"So many?" Dorothy counted them. "There are more than a dozen of them! Can we defeat them all?"

"Of course I'm not asking you to force it. The reason I'm asking you to take it if you can is that there's a way to outsmart this thing." Leon looked around from a high place and found other targets.

In the distant silvery Gobi Desert, there are some glowing salt ponds. Although humans and other races cannot drink them, they are the source of water for monsters.

Some swaying shadows wandered above the salt pond.

“See those? They’re venom-spitting flying snakes.

"The first step you need to take is to provoke these whirling turtles and lure them near the venomous flying snakes."

87. Sand Sea Shock

"What then?" Dorothy asked anxiously.

"I'll tell you when the time comes, so you can hone your ability to respond to emergencies."

Li Ang said, "We must follow the plan. We can't just blindly kill them all. Otherwise, we won't get much material."

Zoe jumped a little on the spot, obviously ready, but Dorothy seemed to have something else to say.

"Well, let's plan it first..."

Zoe drew her Wind's Breath Sword and walked to the edge of the hill. "Such a simple thing doesn't require planning. Are you afraid?"

"I, I..." The half-elf would certainly not admit it. How could I possibly be afraid of monsters below level 4?

She rubbed her hands. Leon washed the third-level gloves, the Martian Grips, which he had found in the mezzanine passage of Spark Island and gave them to her, just to give her an attack method other than the Magic Flower.

"Don't hold me back."

As soon as Zoe finished speaking, she jumped down the hill and landed on one of the boulders lying in the sand.

She stomped the sole of her boot into the sand, creating a wave.

Leon gently pushed the half-elf's back and said, "Go ahead. You need to practice. I can't coddle you. I have to gradually let you face danger."

"Ah, Aah!" Dorothy was pushed down the hill and fell into the soft sand.

The height here had no effect on her at all, she just looked a little embarrassed.

Li Ang stepped back and took a detour to the salt pond to give the two girls room to move around.

The half-elf got up, shook the sand out of his hair, spat twice, and saw that the rocks in front of him were also shaking.

The sand fell off the rough surface, and a head resembling a crocodile or a turtle rose from the sand. It was almost as big as a human head, and its beak, which transitioned from khaki to brown, looked very sharp. The scales on its thick neck grew in the opposite direction, making it look very intimidating.

"Ugh!"

Dorothy scrambled to the side, but the snapping turtle's huge mouth had already shot out and bit her cloak.

The half-elf tugged hard, tearing a piece of cloth from the cloak.

She rolled and crawled, trying to get as far away from these monsters as possible.

On the other side, Zoe, who was surrounded by the startled sandstone turtles, was not worried at all. Her wind swordsmanship could restrain these earth-attributed monsters. After swinging her sword and scraping out a few wind blades, the front of the air flow cut into the gaps between the scales of these land alligator turtles, causing them to squeeze and roar in pain, making a hissing sound.

All the alligator snapping turtles around bit the girl. She was agile and quick. She immediately changed direction and jumped several times, quickly jumping to the periphery of the monster group.

At least half of the dozen or so sandstone tortoises immediately spread out their legs and rushed towards Zoe at a speed that was not at all like that of a tortoise.

The girl's small leather boots stepped into the sand, and she kicked the sand and ran in the direction Leon pointed. The wind around her blew ripples on the sand.

"Damn it." Dorothy dragged her cloak and struggled to pull her legs out of the sand, barely avoiding the alligator snapping turtle that was chasing her.

After running for a while, two more chose her target.

"I-I'm the worst at running!"

Even with the Ring of Strength, the half-elf was still out of breath while running. This time, she wore clothes that she thought would allow her to move easily, instead of wrapping herself up like before. However, she still felt that the clothes were a burden, tightly wrapped around her.

In fact, she also understood that this feeling was entirely due to her poor physical condition. In the past, she would have just lay on the ground and let others do whatever they wanted.

A sandstone turtle approached quickly, opened its mouth and bit directly into the half-elf's calf, biting through her fair and tender skin in an instant.

Dorothy raised her hand and released the magic power in her gloves. Large sparks instantly sprayed out in a cone shape, covering the entire body of the spinning turtle.

Hot sparks fell into the gaps between its scales, burning its skin black and cracking. The pain made the turtle roll on the sand, but it did not let go. Instead, it pulled Dorothy to roll with it.

"Ah! I, I can't lead it over! I'm going to take action!"

Dorothy grimaced in pain, and the cloth on her back shattered in an instant. Several green vines broke out of her body, twisting and tangling, and a flower bud larger than the alligator turtle's head grew at the front.

The magic flower quickly approached the alligator snapping turtle and its buds bloomed, but as the alligator snapping turtle was tearing at its own calves, Dorothy couldn't find a place to bite. She rushed out in pain and the magic flower bit the alligator snapping turtle's carapace.

crunch--

As expected of the power of the magic flower, even the hard rock shell strengthened by magic was instantly cut open by the sword core, and blood oozed out.

"Hiss!" The alligator snapping turtle didn't let go despite the pain. Instead, it became more ferocious and intensified its attack, trying to bite off the half-elf's calf.

"Damn it! Damn it! Wicked thing!"

Dorothy controlled the magic flower to attack continuously, directly tearing off the sandstone turtle's limbs, and finally wrapping around its body. Many small flowers bloomed on the surface of the green vine, cutting the turtle's shell into pieces, and finally shattering its bones and internal organs, and large amounts of blood seeped into the sand.

"That won't work!" Li Ang shouted from a distance, "If you do that, you'll ruin all the material!"

"B-But I can't help it..."

After killing a sandstone turtle, Dorothy sat down on the sand, breathing heavily. The strength of her Magic Flower was currently at level 4. She did not feel pressure to fight the monster alone, but she herself would suffer.

He released healing magic on his calf, and with his own healing ability, he could see that the wound deep into the bone was recovering.

Because of Mo Shenghua's brutal killing, the two alligator snapping turtles chasing her retreated temporarily, but still did not give up on her.

With the combat intelligence of level 2 monsters, it is difficult for them to distinguish the relationship between the delicate half-elf and the magic flower.

The two sandstone turtles retracted most of their heads into their shells, and their limbs quickly paddled on the sand to provide propulsion, then also retracted into their shells, using magic to pull themselves around and spin on the sand.

Their plastrons are colorful and have a gem-like color. They can be made into ornaments that ordinary people in the Sabrum airspace like, which is due to the combined effect of magic enhancement and friction with the rough ground.

The rough edges of the turtle shell become highly destructive saw teeth after they rotate. When they expose the prey's flaws through rotation and impact, the crocodile mouth hidden in the shell will suddenly bite out and cause serious damage.

Coupled with their habit of living in groups, this method of fighting is further strengthened, which is why they are relatively difficult low-level monsters to deal with.

The two monsters instantly turned into small, powerful chariots and slammed into Dorothy.

The inexperienced half-elf had not anticipated their sudden outburst of power, and hurriedly used the magic flower vines to defend herself. However, although the flower vines were strong enough, she herself was very light, and the impact of the two monsters directly knocked her flying and rolled onto the sand in the distance.

The blood energy released by her killing of a sandstone turtle caused many individuals that were originally chasing Zoe to turn around and attack Dorothy.

Zoe frowned, raised her sword and cast a spell. The green wind element gathered into arrows in her palm and was thrown towards the group of monsters.

She is now a level 3 elementalist. It is not difficult for her to draw magic power and use things in nature to cast spells. The elemental arrow is even a spell she learned on the island of Satus.

With the help of the power of wind provided by the treasure, she cast the wind elemental arrow, and with her own talent, the elemental arrow released by the girl was quite powerful, and it made a sharp whistling sound in mid-air.

The spinning wind arrow knocked a spinning turtle away, and the bursting wind broke many tiny scales, splashing a circle of blood on the sand.

Some of the spinning turtles turned around and attacked Zoe, and she fired a second wind arrow, trying to attract more attention from the group of monsters.

"Hurry up!" Zoe warned Dorothy.

"Oh, okay, okay, thank you."

The half-elf looked at the girl twice, nodded, and took the opportunity to slip out of the encirclement.

Zoe's second wind arrow knocked another monster away. After it landed, it shook its body and retracted into its shell, making a hissing sound and began to spin.

As if reminded by it, the turtles nearby all started to spin together. In an instant, the sand surface was covered with wind and sand, and the monsters all rushed out together, causing the situation to completely get out of control.

"why is it like this!"

Dorothy was surrounded again, and she hurriedly released more magic flower vines. They spread out in a net-like pattern and penetrated into the ground, temporarily forming a shield similar to a turtle shell to defend against the repeated collisions of the sandstone turtle.

Letting these turtles riot could probably wipe out an entire mortal realm adventure team, but Dorothy's Magic Flower was not mortal after all, and for a while it prevented their continuous spinning and impacting, making it difficult to tell who was the turtle.

However, Zoe was a little panicked.

"Why..."

She found Li Ang and shouted, "What should I do?! I can't lead him there now!"

Leon knew that she did this to help Dorothy and to attract their attention, but she did not understand the ferocity of these monsters and instead triggered a riot among them.

At this point, it is impossible to stop the turtles and start fighting in an unscheduled position.

"If you can't lure them over there, lure those things over here!" Li Ang shouted, pointing at the flying snakes near the salt pond.

The girl turned her head and immediately ran towards the salt pond with the help of the wind.

From a distance, the silvery-white dry ground sparkles with silver light. When you get closer, you can see that these salt pools are turbid white, mixed with a large amount of sand and gravel minerals.

Some dark green snake-like creatures were swaying nearby. They were more than two meters long, but thicker than ordinary snakes, and the bones inside their bodies supported a pair of fleshy wings on both sides.

Through magical changes, the texture of their wings became more like membranes rather than the muscles of a snake's body. When they swam, they could flap their wings and fly.

While their flying speed wasn't fast, their advantage in altitude gave them ample leverage against ground-based prey, such as the Sandstone Turtle, which they essentially slaughtered. They simply sprayed poison to kill, then landed and entangled. Few creatures of their level could withstand the attacks of such a monster.

The salt pond has almost become a paradise for these monsters. Some of them lurk in the water to lower their body temperature and ambush prey, while some have already eaten their fill and are flying slowly in the sky, swaying and stretching their bodies.

As soon as Zoe arrived, the venomous snakes immediately became aggressive and flew towards her.

After throwing out a few wind blades, she turned and rushed towards the group of sandstone turtles.

Venomous flying snakes followed closely behind.

"Leon! What to do next!" the girl shouted.

After running for a while, the flying snakes were reluctant to chase. They saw the sandstone turtles rioting. Although they could not hurt them, they still retained some of the monsters' instinct to seek profit and avoid harm, and did not want to suddenly intrude into other monsters' hunting grounds.

Leon drew out the Silver Heart Sword from a distance, controlling his spiritual power to generate a silver blade of light, which was projected out in an arc.

The silver light fell in the direction of a spinning turtle, and the impact force changed its trajectory from a flat plane to an angle of about thirty degrees.

The force of the spinning impact caused the turtle to fly off the ground and crash into the poisonous flying snake in mid-air.

The big snake's flying speed was not fast, and even if it wanted to dodge, one of them would still be hit.

It fell to the ground from the impact, and as it was hit, the tortoise stretched out its head and bit its body.

The rock-piercing beak and the snake scales rubbed against each other, and for the time being, they could not effectively kill.

The flying snake stretched its upper and lower jaws to a huge size, with its fangs protruding outward and venom spraying out crazily.

The poison fell onto the surface of the spiral turtle, flowed along the gaps in its scales, and finally seeped slowly from the edge of its shell.

The sandstone tortoise, which was still attacking, suddenly trembled, its whole body twitching violently, and its attack became more fierce, but it only lasted for a dozen seconds before it stopped motionless on the sand and made no sound.

The venomous flying snake broke free from the bite of the dead alligator snapping turtle, spread its fleshy wings and tried to take off again.

The other flying snakes thought that the spinning turtles were actively attacking and began to spray poison at the spinning turtle group.

"Just like this." Leon said.

"Okay!" After understanding what to do, Zoe immediately became interested.

She moved quickly, nimbly positioned herself in the right direction, and raised her sword at a charging turtle.
