Chapter 12 Burning the Wild Boar King
"Stop right there!"
Su Qingyan shouted and continued to yell, "How could your two mortal legs possibly outrun the four legs of a demon beast?"
"Those who don't want to die, hurry up and hide inside."
"If you disrupt my formation and fail to trap this monster, I'll have my spirit beasts slaughter you all afterwards!"
After speaking quickly, Su Qingyan glared fiercely at the group of farmers.
The threatening words worked as expected.
One by one, they all stopped in their tracks, turned around and rushed toward the door of the cabin, filing in one after another.
"Wife, keep an eye on them and don't let them run around, or Little Grey will bite them to death," Su Qingyan instructed his wife Zhang Hui at the door of the cabin.
At this moment, the Mud-armored Wild Boar King behind him had approached, less than 50 meters away from the trap. Su Qingyan had no time to deal with these farmers anymore.
He immediately turned to Little Grey and said, "Little Grey, go and provoke it."
"Don't really fight it, just kite it and avoid getting hurt. Then try to lure it onto the trap."
"You can fly, that should be easy."
chirp——
Little Grey hissed, and already somewhat impatient, it glided away with a "whoosh," rushing towards the Mud Armored Wild Boar King to the east like a sharp arrow.
Seeing this, the Mud-Armored Wild Boar King slightly raised the angle of its tusks.
With a burst of power from his legs, he increased his speed, attempting to instantly kill the annoying guy blocking his way with a single charge.
But how could Little Grey let the Mud Armored Wild Boar King defeat him so easily?
It was faster and much more agile than the Mud-Armored Wild Boar King. When they got close, Little Grey turned to the side and glided past the Mud-Armored Wild Boar King on the right, easily avoiding its charge.
Meanwhile, its two claws were not idle either.
When the two were closest to each other, Little Grey stretched out its two powerful legs and shoved its claws hard into the Mud Armored Wild Boar King.
Unfortunately, the Mud Armored Boar King not only has thick skin and tough flesh, but also comes with defensive spells.
Just as Little Grey's sharp claws pierced its skin, a pale yellow halo suddenly appeared on the Mud Armored Boar King.
The next second, a large amount of clumps of mud appeared out of thin air and stuck to the surface of the Mud Armor Boar King's skin, as if it were wearing a set of mud armor.
Tear!
Little Grey's claws scraped across the mud armor on the Mud Armored Boar King's skin, making a screeching sound and leaving several deep scratches on the surface.
However, it still did not completely break through the defenses.
After one round, neither side was injured, and both had gained a basic understanding of the opponent's strength.
Roar roar roar—
The Mud-armored Wild Boar King braked suddenly, leaving two small ditches about 30 to 40 centimeters deep on the ground.
Shaking off its mud armor, it turned its head and saw that the big bird's attack wasn't very effective and hadn't been able to break through its defenses. It then excitedly let out a few more roars.
Little Grey then made a U-turn and returned to the front of the Mud Armored Wild Boar King, constantly adjusting its position.
It was not let the defeat in the first round go to its head.
They did not choose to launch the first attack.
Instead, it used its calls to constantly provoke the Mud Armored Boar King.
In the eyes of the Mud Armored Wild Boar King, Little Grey's actions showed that he was afraid of his performance and dared not come up to fight him to the death. He only dared to talk big and barked helplessly from a distance.
Having "discovered" this, the Mud Armored Wild Boar King began to poke at the soil with its right hind leg, and after charging for a few seconds, it charged at Little Grey again.
Upon seeing this, Little Grey turned and ran away.
After approaching the cabin, it spun around and pulled upwards, soaring into the sky.
The Mud Armored Boar King, which was charging forward, stepped on the trap, only to feel its foot slip and fall in.
Soon, the mournful squeals of pigs came from the bottom of the deep pit trap.
Little Grey immediately flew over the deep pit trap to check the situation and found that the Mud Armored Boar King's four feet, which were not covered by mud armor, were bleeding profusely from being pierced by sharp bamboo spears at the bottom of the deep pit trap.
Despite being injured, the Mud Armored Boar King did not lose its ability to move.
With a powerful leap from its two strong hind legs, it jumped up and approached the surface of the deep pit trap.
Just as the Mud Armored Wild Boar King was about to escape the deep pit trap, Little Grey was not about to give it that chance.
The circular pit trap, nearly 3 meters in diameter, looked large, but for the massive Mud Armored Boar King, it was extremely cramped, making it difficult for him to move around or jump.
This condition was extremely advantageous for Little Grey, who wanted to prevent the Mud Armored Boar King from escaping the deep pit trap, making the defense very easy.
As soon as the Mud Armored Wild Boar King popped its head out, Little Gray's sharp claws immediately came down.
With a "thud," the Mud Armored Wild Boar King fell to the bottom of the deep pit trap once again.
After being stopped, the Mud Armored Boar King did not give up. Instead, it paused for a moment, then seized the opportunity to jump out of the deep pit trap again.
Unfortunately, Little Grey was keeping a close eye on it, not giving it any opening. As soon as its head peeked out, both eagle claws came at it at the same time.
After trying seven or eight times, the Mud Armored Boar King found that not only had he failed to jump out of the deep pit trap, but the injury on his foot was also getting worse.
It quickly learned its lesson, stopped jumping, and instead used its mud armor to crush all the bamboo spears at the bottom of the pit trap before lying down at the bottom of the pit to conserve its energy.
It was as if they were waiting for something.
Time passed second by second. Su Qingyan saw that the Mud Armored Wild Boar King at the bottom of the deep pit trap was completely still, so he carefully walked forward to take a look, and then looked up at the sky.
The sun was about to set, and the evening glow began to appear on the horizon.
He immediately realized: the Mud-Armored Wild Boar King was waiting for nightfall!
It hides at the bottom of the deep pit trap, and as long as it doesn't rush out, Little Grey can't hurt it.
If Little Grey dares to go down to the bottom of the deep pit and fight it to the death, then Little Grey will lose all its advantages, and the Mud Armored Boar King will be able to seize the opportunity to easily kill Little Grey.
If Little Grey doesn't enter the deep pit trap and instead waits until dark, it can accumulate enough strength and find an opportunity to escape the trap when it's dark and everyone can't see clearly.
Once it gets out, neither these people nor this bird can do anything to it.
"I didn't expect this Mud Armored Boar King to be so intelligent. It was able to recover so quickly after being frustrated." Su Qingyan sighed inwardly, a sense of urgency rising within him.
We can't let this mud-armored wild boar king drag on until nightfall, otherwise there's a real risk of something going wrong.
Thinking of this, Su Qingyan quickly racked his brains for a solution.
A few minutes later, his eyes lit up and he had an idea: since this Mud Armored Boar King wanted to stall for time, he would create an environment that would make it unable to stay at the bottom of the deep pit trap, such as high temperature.
The mud armor on the Mud Armored Boar King can withstand physical attacks, but if the temperature in the deep pit trap rises to a certain level, can it still withstand it?
The more Su Qingyan thought about it, the more feasible it seemed, and he immediately made a decision:
Burn the Wild Boar King!
